DFS Proxy Statement

Appendix A 9. Nonassignability; No Hedging . Unless otherwise provided in an award agreement, no award (or any rights and obligations thereunder) granted to any person under the Plan may be sold, exchanged, transferred, assigned, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of or hedged in violation of the Company policy on hedging, in any manner (including through the use of any cash-settled instrument), whether voluntarily or involuntarily and whether by operation of law or otherwise, other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and all such awards (and any rights thereunder) will be exercisable during the life of the grantee only by the grantee or the grantee’s legal representative. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may permit, under such terms and conditions that it deems appropriate in its sole discretion, a grantee to transfer any award to any person or entity that the Committee so determines. Any sale, exchange, transfer, assignment, pledge, hypothecation, or other disposition in violation of the provisions of this Section or Company policy will be null and void and any award which is hedged in any manner will immediately be forfeited. All of the terms and conditions of the Plan and the award agreements will be binding upon any permitted successors and assigns. 10. Right of Offset . The Company will have the right to offset against its obligation to deliver shares (or other property or cash) under the Plan or any award agreement any outstanding amounts (including, without limitation, travel and entertainment or advance account balances, loans, repayment obligations under any awards, or amounts repayable to the Company pursuant to tax equalization, housing, automobile or other employee programs) that the grantee then owes to the Company and any amounts the Committee otherwise deems appropriate pursuant to any tax equalization policy or agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an award provides for the deferral of compensation within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, the Committee will have no right to offset against its obligation to deliver shares (or other property or cash) under the Plan or any award agreement if such offset could subject the grantee to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A of the Code in respect of an outstanding award. 11. Governing Law . The Plan, each grant and award hereunder and the related agreement, and all determinations made and actions taken pursuant thereto, to the extent not otherwise governed by the Code or the laws of the United States, shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware and construed in accordance therewith without giving effect to principles of conflicts of laws. 12. Foreign Participants . Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary the Committee may, with a view to both promoting achievement of the purposes of the Plan and complying with (i) provisions of laws in countries outside the United States in which the Company or its subsidiaries operate or have employees and (ii) the rules of any foreign stock exchange upon which the common stock may be listed, determine which persons outside the United States shall be eligible to participate in the Plan on such terms and conditions different from those specified in the Plan as may in the judgment of the Committee be necessary or advisable and, to that end, the Committee may establish sub-plans, modified option exercise procedures and other terms and procedures. 13. Insider Limits . Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, (i) the maximum number of shares of common stock which may be reserved for issuance to insiders (as defined in the Ontario Securities Act) under the Plan, together with any other previously established or proposed incentive plan, shall not exceed 10% of the outstanding shares of common stock, (ii) the maximum number of shares of common stock which may be issued to insiders under the Plan, together with any other previously established or proposed incentive plan, within any one year period shall not exceed 10% of the outstanding shares of common stock, and (iii) the maximum number of shares of common stock which may be issued to any one insider and his or her associates under the Plan, together with any other previously established or proposed incentive plan, within a one-year period, shall not exceed 5% of the outstanding shares of common stock. 14. Waiver of Jury Trial . Each grantee waives any right it may have to trial by jury in respect of any litigation based on, arising out of, under or in connection with the Plan. 15. Waiver of Claims . Each grantee of an award recognizes and agrees that before being selected by the Committee to receive an award the grantee has no right to any benefits under the Plan. Accordingly, in consideration of the grantee’s receipt of any award hereunder, the grantee expressly waives any right to contest the amount of any award, the terms of any award agreement, any determination, action or omission hereunder or under any award agreement by the Committee, the Company or the Board, or any amendment to the Plan or any award agreement (other than an amendment to the Plan or an award agreement to which his or her consent is expressly required by the express terms of an award agreement). Nothing contained in the Plan, and no action taken pursuant to its provisions, will create or be construed to create a trust of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between the Company and any grantee. The Plan is not intended to be subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA), as amended. 2017 Proxy Statement A-11
