Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

Effective October 26, 2016, the Company’s Restricted Stock Unit Plan was amended with respect to Restricted Stock Units granted in 2016 and in future years. The effect of the amendments is to amend the provisions regarding forfeiture of restricted stock units in the event of detrimental activity on the part of grantees; provide that restricted stock units may be granted such that the second 50% of the restricted stock units may also vest on the tenth anniversary following the grant date (in addition to the seventh anniversary following the grant date or the later of the tenth anniversary or the date of retirement of the grantee, as is currently the case); and make minor administrative amendments to the Plan for greater clarity.
