Stock dividends and shares issued as a result of any stock-split, if any, issued with respect to the Restricted Shares shall be treated as additional Restricted Shares and shall be subject to the same restrictions and other terms and conditions that apply with respect to, and shall vest or be forfeited at the same time as, the Restricted Shares with respect to which such stock dividends or shares are issued.
6. Forfeiture. Notwithstanding paragraph 3, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may hereafter determine that upon termination of Continuous Service, Participant shall forfeit all unvested Restricted Shares, and not receive any compensation for such forfeited Restricted Shares. Participant shall have no further rights as a shareholder of the Company with respect to the forfeiture, including, without limitation, any right to receive any distribution payable to shareholders of record on or after the date of such forfeiture.
7. Certificates.

To the extent the Restricted Shares vest, the Company shall promptly provide Participant (or in the case of his death, his designated beneficiary) the certificates for the appropriate number of shares of Common Stock.

9. Tax Election. Participant agrees that he or she will not make the election provided for in Section 83(b) of the Code (as defined in the Plan) with respect to the Restricted Shares.

All determinations and interpretations of the Committee shall be binding and conclusive upon Participant and his or her legal representatives.
