          (c) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Plan, the restrictions on the Stock subject to this Award Agreement imposed hereunder or pursuant to the Plan shall lapse on each Vesting Date with respect to the portion of such Stock to which such Vesting Date is applicable. The Stock subject to this Award Agreement shall, however, be fully vested upon a Change in Control to the extent provide in the Plan (such event being treated as a Vesting Date for these purposes). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the vesting of the Stock subject to this Award on the occurrence of a Vesting Date shall only occur if the Grantee is, and has continuously been, an employee of the Company or of an affiliate of the Company from the Date of Grant through such Vesting Date.
          (d) In the event the Grantee ceases to serve as an employee of the Company or of an affiliate of the Company prior to the occurrence of a Vesting Date, the Stock to which such Vesting Date was applicable shall be forfeited by the Grantee and the Stock so forfeited shall be reacquired by the Company without consideration.
          (e) Except for the restrictions specified herein and in the Plan, the Grantee shall have all of the rights of a shareholder with respect to the Stock subject to this Award, including the right to vote such Stock to the same extent that such shares could be voted if they were not subject to the restrictions set forth in this Award Agreement.
          (f) Any dividends payable with respect to the Stock subject to this Award shall be distributed to the Grantee at the same time and in the same manner as dividends are distributed to any other holder of the Company’s Common Stock. Any dividends that are in the nature of extraordinary dividends or that are in the form of a distribution of securities, shall be held in escrow and shall be subject to the same restrictions and the same provisions for vesting and forfeiture as are applicable under the terms of this Award Agreement and the Plan to the Stock with respect to which such dividends were issued. [ALTERNATIVE PROVISION: Any

cash dividends payable with respect to the Stock subject to this Award shall be invested and reinvested in additional full or fractional shares of the Company’s Common Stock and shall be deemed to be additional Stock subject to the same restrictions and the same provisions for vesting and forfeiture as are applicable under the terms of this Award Agreement and the Plan to the Stock with respect to which such dividends were issued. Any dividends that are in the nature of extraordinary dividends or that are in the form of a distribution of securities, shall be held in escrow and shall be subject to the same restrictions and the same provisions for vesting as are applicable to the Stock to which such dividends relate.]
     3. Legends. Certificates representing the Stock subject to this Award Agreement shall bear such legends as the Company shall deem appropriate to reflect any restrictions on transfer imposed under the Award Agreement, pursuant to the terms of the Plan, or by reason of applicable federal or state securities laws.
     4. Delivery of Shares. Upon a Vesting Date, the Company shall notify Grantee (or Grantee’s personal representative, heir or legatee in the event of Grantee’s death) that the restrictions on an installment of Stock have lapsed, and shall, without payment from Grantee for such Restricted Stock, upon such Grantee’s request deliver a certificate for such Restricted Stock without any legend or restrictions, except for such restrictions as may be imposed by the Committee, in its sole judgment, by reason of applicable federal or state securities laws; provided that no certificates for shares will be delivered to Grantee (or to his or her personal representative, heir or legatee) until appropriate arrangements have been made with the Company for the withholding of any taxes which may be due with respect to such Stock. The Company may condition delivery of certificates for shares of Stock upon the prior receipt from Grantee of any undertakings which it may determine are required to assure that the certificates are being issued in compliance with federal and state securities laws. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may require the Grantee to deliver to the Company a stock power endorsed in blank relating to the shares of Common Stock subject to the Award in order to facilitate the reacquisition of the Stock by the Company in the event of a forfeiture, or may hold the certificates representing the Stock subject to this Award Agreement until the Restriction Period expires.
     5. Status of Stock. The Stock subject to this Award is intended to constitute property subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture during the Restriction Period, and subject to federal income tax in accordance with section 83 of the Code. Section 83 generally provides that Grantee will recognize compensation income with respect to the Stock only to the extent in becomes vested on the applicable Vesting Date or Dates in an amount equal to the then fair market value of the Stock. Alternatively, Grantee may elect, pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code, to recognize compensation income for all or any part of the Stock subject to this Award as of the date the Award is granted to the Grantee in an amount equal to the fair market value of the Stock subject to the election. Such election must be made within 30 days of the date the Award is granted, and the Grantee is required to notify the Company immediately if such an election is made. Grantee should consult his or her tax advisors to determine whether a Section 83(b) election is appropriate.

     6. Employment. Nothing in the Plan or in this Agreement shall confer upon the Grantee any right to be continued as an employee of the Company or interfere in any way with the right of the Company to remove the Grantee as an employee at any time for any cause.
     7. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of any successor of the Company, but except as provided above, the Award granted shall not be assigned or otherwise disposed of by the Grantee.
     8. The Plan. This Award is subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan. In the event of a conflict between the Plan and this Agreement, the terms of the Plan shall control.
