Payment
Restricted Stock Units shall be paid to you or your beneficiary (or estate, if there is no beneficiary), as applicable, within sixty (60) days of the date on which the Restricted Period on such Restricted Stock Units lapses. Restricted Stock Units are payable in one share of Stock for each whole Restricted Stock Unit and a cash payment for any fraction of a Restricted Stock Unit.

You may defer the settlement of this Award in accordance with the Stock Accumulation and Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors.

Withholding
Proceeds from vesting of RSUs are subject to various income taxes, including but not limited to Federal, self-employment tax, and City of Wilmington. For U.S. residents, the Company is not required nor does it withhold taxes from your proceeds; however, the Company will report proceeds on a Form 1099-MISC, Non-employee compensation. Grantees are encouraged to consult a tax professional on more specifics.
  
Severability
The provisions of this Agreement are severable and if any one or more provisions are determined to be illegal or otherwise unenforceable, in whole or in part, the remaining provisions shall nevertheless be binding and enforceable.

Waiver
You acknowledge that a waiver by the Company of breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement, or of any subsequent breach of this Agreement.

Imposition of Other    
Requirements
The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on your participation in this Agreement, on the Restricted Stock Units and on any shares of Stock acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons, and to require you to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing.
