1.        The Plan.    The Plan, a copy of which has been made available to the Participant, is hereby incorporated by reference herein and made a part hereof for all purposes, and when taken with this Agreement shall govern the rights of the Participant and the Company with respect to the Award (as defined below). Any capitalized terms used but not defined in this Agreement have the same meanings given to them in the Plan.

3.        Terms of Award.

(a)        Escrow of Shares.    A certificate, or book-entry equivalent representing the shares of Common Stock subject to the Award (the “Restricted Stock”) shall be issued in the name of the Participant and shall be escrowed with the Secretary of the Company (the “Escrow Agent”) subject to removal of the restrictions placed thereon or forfeiture pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(b)        Vesting.    The shares of Restricted Stock will vest based on the Participant’s continuous employment with or service to the Company, a Subsidiary or Affiliated Entity in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth on the Notice. Once vested pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Restricted Stock shall be deemed “Vested Stock.”

(c)        Voting Rights and Dividends.    The Participant shall not have the voting rights attributable to the shares of Restricted Stock issued under this Award. No dividends will be paid to the Participant with respect to shares of Restricted Stock until such Restricted Stock becomes Vested Stock.

(d)        Vested Stock - Removal of Restrictions.    Upon Restricted Stock becoming Vested Stock, all restrictions shall be removed from the Stock and the Secretary of the Company shall deliver to the Participant shares either in certificate form or via D.W.A.C. (delivery/withdrawal at custodian) representing such Vested Stock free and clear of all restrictions, except for any applicable securities laws restrictions or restrictions pursuant to the Company’s Insider Trading Policy.

(e)        Forfeiture.    Restricted Stock that does not become Vested Stock pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be absolutely forfeited and the Participant shall have no future interest therein of any kind whatsoever. In the event the Participant’s employment with or service to the Company, a Subsidiary or an Affiliated Entity terminates prior to all shares of Restricted Stock becoming Vested Stock, then such unvested shares of Restricted Stock shall be absolutely forfeited on the date of termination and the Participant shall have no further interest therein of any kind whatsoever. The Committee may, in its discretion, accelerate the vesting of the Restricted Stock in the event of the Participant’s death, Disability or termination due to special circumstances (as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion).

4.        Fundamental Transaction; Change of Control.    In accordance with the terms of the Plan, all Restricted Stock that becomes Vested Stock upon the occurrence of a Fundamental Transaction or a Change of Control shall be delivered to the Participant in certificate form or via D.W.A.C. free and clear of all restrictions, except for any applicable securities law restrictions.

5.        Nontransferability of Award.    Restricted Stock is not transferable other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Any attempted sale, assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation or other disposition of, or the levy of execution, attachment or similar process upon, Restricted Stock contrary to the provisions hereof shall be void and ineffective, shall give no right to any purported transferee, any may, at the sole discretion of the Committee, result in forfeiture of the Restricted Stock involved in such attempt.

6.        Withholding.    The Company may make such provision as it may deem appropriate for the withholding of any applicable federal, state or local taxes that it determines it may be obligated to withhold or pay in connection with the vesting of the Restricted Stock or any election made by the Participant. Required withholding taxes as determined by the Company associated with this Award must be paid in cash unless the Committee requires the Participant to pay such withholding taxes by directing the Company to withhold from the Award the number of shares of Common Stock having a Fair Market Value on the date of vesting equal to the amount of required withholding taxes.

7.        Notification of 83(b) Election.    In the event the Participant elects to make an 83(b) election with respect to this Award, the Participant must provide the Company notice of such election at the same time the election is filed with the Internal Revenue Service. The Participant must also tender to the Company payment of the required withholding taxes associated with such election. In the event the Participant makes an 83(b) election without consulting with the Company as to the payment of required withholding taxes, the Company may withhold from other payments to the Participant amounts necessary to effect the required withholding.
