The Company will not be required to recognize on its books any action taken in contravention of these restrictions.

4. Stock Certificates.

(a) Unvested Shares. You are reflected as the owner of record of the Award Shares on the Company’s books. The Company will hold the share certificates for safekeeping, or otherwise retain the Award Shares in uncertificated book entry form, until the Award Shares become vested and nonforfeitable, and any share certificates (or electronic delivery) representing such unvested shares will include a legend to the effect that you may not sell, assign, transfer, pledge, or hypothecate the Award Shares. You must deliver to the Company, as soon as practicable after the Grant Date, a stock power, endorsed in blank, with respect to the Award Shares. If you forfeit any Award Shares, the stock power will be used to return the certificates for the forfeited Award Shares to the Company’s transfer agent for cancellation.

(b) Vested Shares.

5. Taxation.

(a) Tax Withholding. Since you are not an employee of the Company or any Affiliate, the Company is not required to, and the Company will not, deduct from any compensation or any other payment of any kind due you the amount of any federal, state, local or foreign taxes required to be paid by you as a result of the grant or vesting of the Award Shares in whole or in part. You expressly acknowledge that you are solely responsible for the payment of any such federal, state, local or foreign taxes, and you may not rely on the Company for any assistance with regard to withholding or paying such taxes.

(b) Tax Election. You are advised to seek independent tax advice from your own advisors regarding the availability and advisability of making an election under Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Any such election, if made, must be made within 30 days of the Grant Date. You expressly acknowledge that you are solely responsible for filing any such Section 83(b) election with the appropriate governmental authorities, irrespective of the fact that such election is also delivered to the Company. You may not rely on the Company or any of its respective officers, directors or employees for tax or legal advice regarding this Award. You acknowledge that you have sought tax and legal advice from your own advisors regarding this Award or have voluntarily and knowingly foregone such consultation.

6. Adjustments for Corporate Transactions and Other Events.

(a) Stock Dividend, Stock Split and Reverse Stock Split. Upon a stock dividend of, or stock split or reverse stock split affecting, the Common Stock, the number of Award Shares and the number of such Award Shares that are nonvested and forfeitable will, without further action of the Committee, be adjusted to reflect such event. The Committee may make adjustments, in its discretion, to address the treatment of fractional shares with respect to the Award Shares as a result of the stock dividend, stock split or reverse stock split. Adjustments under this Section 6 will be made by the Committee, whose determination as to what adjustments, if any, will be made and the extent thereof will be final, binding and conclusive. No fractional Award Shares will result from any such adjustments.

(b) Binding Nature of Agreement. The terms and conditions of this Agreement will apply with equal force to any additional and/or substitute securities received by you in exchange for, or by virtue of your ownership of, the Award Shares, whether as a result of any spin-off, stock split-up, stock dividend, stock distribution, other reclassification of the Common Stock of the Company, or other similar event, except as otherwise determined by the Committee. If the Award Shares are converted into or exchanged for, or stockholders of the Company receive by reason of any distribution in total or partial liquidation or pursuant to any merger of the Company or acquisition of its assets, securities of another entity, or other property (including cash), then the rights of the Company under this Agreement will inure to the benefit of the Company’s successor, and this Agreement will apply to the securities or other property received upon such conversion, exchange or distribution in the same manner and to the same extent as the Award Shares.

7. Non-Guarantee of Service Relationship. Nothing in the Plan, the LTIP or this Agreement alters your service relationship with the Company or shall constitute or be evidence of any agreement or understanding, express or implied, that the Company will retain you as a member of the Board of Directors for any period of time. This Agreement is not to be construed as a contract of service relationship between the Company and you. This Agreement does not limit in any way the possibility of your removal from the Board of Directors in accordance with the By-Law provisions in effect at the relevant time, whether or not such removal results in the forfeiture of any Award Shares or any other adverse effect on your interests under the Plan.

All cash dividends and any other distributions paid with respect to nonvested Award Shares will be paid directly to you on the applicable dividend payment dates.

9. The Company’s Rights. The existence of the Award Shares does not affect in any way the right or power of the Company or its stockholders to make or authorize any or all adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations or other changes in the Company’s capital structure or its business, including that of its subsidiaries, or any merger or consolidation of the Company or any Affiliate, or any issue of bonds, debentures, preferred or other stocks with preference ahead of or convertible into, or otherwise affecting the Common Stock or the rights thereof, or the dissolution or liquidation of the Company or any Affiliate, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of the Company’s or any Affiliate’s assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise.
