11. Withholding
     The Company shall have the right, in connection with the delivery of the Restricted Stock and any Non-Stock Dividends and Stock Dividends (and interest thereon) subject to this Restricted Stock Agreement, (i) to deduct from any payment otherwise due by the Company to you or any other person receiving delivery of the Restricted Stock and any Non-Stock Dividends and Stock Dividends (and interest thereon) an amount equal to the taxes and social security required to be withheld by law with respect to such delivery, (ii) to require you or any other person receiving such delivery to pay to it an amount sufficient to provide for any such taxes and social security so required to be withheld or (iii) to sell for fair market value such number of the Restricted Stock and any Stock Dividends as may be necessary so that the net proceeds of such sale shall be an amount sufficient to provide for any such taxes and social security so required to be withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that you make an effective election pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code with respect to the Restricted Stock or any Stock Dividends, the Company shall require you to deliver to the Company concurrently with such election, (1) a copy of the election, and (2) payment of the amount that is equal to the taxes and social security required to be withheld pursuant to such election.
12. Securities Laws Requirements
     The Company shall not be obligated to transfer any Stock to you free of the restrictive legend in the form of Attachment 3 hereto or of any other restrictive legend, if such transfer, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, would violate the Securities Act (or any other federal or state statutes having similar requirements as may be in effect at that time).
13. No Obligation to Register
     The Company shall be under no obligation to register the Restricted Stock or any Stock Dividends pursuant to the Securities Act or any other U.S. federal or state securities laws. The Company shall not be obligated to deliver any shares until they have been listed (or authorized for listing upon official notice of issuance) upon each stock exchange upon which are listed outstanding shares of the same class as that of the shares subject to this award and until there have been compliance with such laws and regulations as the Company may deem applicable.
14. Protections Against Violations of Agreement
     No purported sale, assignment, mortgage, hypothecation, transfer, pledge, encumbrance, gift, transfer in trust (voting or other) or other disposition of, or creation of a security interest in or lien on, any of the Restricted Stock by any holder thereof in violation of the provisions of this Restricted Stock Agreement will be valid, and the Company will not

transfer any of said Restricted Stock on its books nor will any such Restricted Stock be entitled to vote, nor will any distributions be paid thereon, unless and until there has been full compliance with said provisions to the satisfaction of the Company. The foregoing restrictions are in addition to and not in lieu of any other remedies, legal or equitable, available to enforce said provisions.
15. Failure to Enforce Not a Waiver
     The failure of the Company to enforce at any time any provision of this Restricted Stock Agreement shall in no way be construed to be a waiver of such provision or of any other provision hereof.
16. Survival of Terms
     This Restricted Stock Agreement shall apply to and bind you, the Company and your and its respective permitted assignees and transferees, heirs, legatees, executors, administrators and legal successors.
17. Counterparts
     This Restricted Stock Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which together shall be deemed to be one and the same instrument.
18. Severability
     Should any provision of this Restricted Stock Agreement be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, or enforceable only if modified, such holding shall not affect the validity of the remainder of this Restricted Stock Agreement, the balance of which shall continue to be binding upon the parties hereto with any such modification (if any) to become a part hereof and treated as though contained in this original Restricted Stock Agreement. Moreover, if one or more of the provisions contained in this Restricted Stock Agreement shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to scope, activity, subject or otherwise so as to be unenforceable, in lieu of severing such unenforceable provision, such provision or provisions shall be construed by the appropriate judicial body by limiting or reducing it or them, so as to be enforceable to the maximum extent compatible with the applicable law as it shall then appear, and such determination by such judicial body shall not affect the enforceability of such provisions or provisions in any other jurisdiction.
19. Personal Data
     BY SIGNING THIS RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT, YOU HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGE THAT FOR THE ADMINISTRATION AND MANAGEMENT OF THE PLAN, THE COMPANY WILL FROM TIME TO TIME NEED TO PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA (AS DEFINED IN THE UNITED KINGDOM’S DATA PROTECTION LEGISLATION) AND ACCORDINGLY YOU EXPRESSLY CONSENT TO THE TRANSMISSION OF ANY PERSONAL DATA (AS DEFINED IN THE UNITED KINGDOM’S DATA PROTECTION LEGISLATION) CONCERNING YOU AND YOUR
