(a) The Participant is the individual named in the Grant Letter.

(b) The Grant Date is the date of the Grant Letter.

(c) The Units means an award denominated in shares of the Company’s Stock as specified in the Grant Letter.

3.    Settlement of Awards. The Company shall deliver to the Participant one share of Stock (or cash equal to the Fair Market Value of one share of Stock) for each vested Unit, as determined in accordance with the provisions of Grant Letter and this Agreement. The Units payable to the Participant in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph 3 shall be paid solely in shares of Stock, solely in cash based on the Fair Market Value of the Stock (determined as of the first business day next following the last day of the Restricted Period), or in a combination of the two, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, except that cash shall be distributed in lieu of any fractional share of Stock.

4.    Time of Payment. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, payment of Units vested in accordance with the provisions of paragraph 5 will be delivered as soon as practicable after the end of the Restricted Period; provided that any cash payment or delivery of shares shall occur no later than the end of the

calendar year during which the Restricted Period ends. To the extent required by Section 409A of the Code, in the event the Participant is a “specified employee” as provided in Section 409A(a)(2)(i) on the Date of Termination (as defined below), any amounts payable hereunder shall be paid no earlier than the first business day after the six month anniversary of the Date of Termination.

5.    Vesting and Forfeiture of Units.

(a)    Units shall vest, and the Participant shall be entitled to settlement on Units, when the Restricted Period has ended. Except in the situations described below, if the Participant’s Date of Termination occurs during the Restricted Period, then Units shall be forfeited.

(b)    Units shall vest prior to the end of the Restricted Period, in the following situations:

(i)    Unless otherwise determined by the Committee in the Grant Letter, if the Participant’s Date of Termination occurs by reason of the Participant’s death, or Disability, then the Units vest as of the Participant’s Date of Termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Award is conditioned on the achievement of one or more performance objectives set forth in the Grant Letter, then the Participant shall become vested under this paragraph 5(b)(i) only upon Committee certification that the performance objectives have been achieved.

(ii)    Unless otherwise determined by the Committee in the Grant Letter, if the Participant’s Date of Termination occurs by reason of the Participant’s Retirement, then the Units vest upon the Committee’s certification of the achievement of one or more performance objectives set forth in the Grant Letter; provided that the Participant remains employed through the end of the fiscal year during which the performance objectives are measured.

(iii)    If (x) a Change in Control occurs prior to the end of the Restricted Period, (y) the Participant’s Date of Termination does not occur before the Change in Control date, and (z) the Committee determines to accelerate such vesting, then the Units vest as of the date of the Change in Control.

(c)    The Participant shall forfeit all unvested Units as of the date on which the Committee determines the Participant materially violated (A) the provisions of paragraph 10 below or (B) any non-competition agreement which the Participant may have entered into with the Company.

6.    Withholding. All deliveries and distributions under this Agreement are subject to withholding of all applicable taxes. The Company is entitled to (a) withhold and deduct from future wages of the Participant (or from other amounts due to Participant) or make other arrangements for the collection of all legally required amounts necessary to satisfy such withholding or (b) require the Participant promptly to remit such amounts to the Company.

Subject to such rules and limitations as may be established by the Committee from time to time, the withholding obligations described in this Section 6 may be satisfied through the surrender of shares of Stock which the Participant already owns, or to which the Participant is otherwise entitled under the Plan, including shares of Stock to be settled under this Agreement.

7.    Transferability. Units may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered until the expiration of the Restricted Period or, if earlier, until the Participant is vested in the Units. Transfers at death are governed by paragraph 9(c) below.
