Restricted Stock Unit Award.

(a)

Restricted Stock Unit Award. The Company hereby grants to the Grantee, effective as of the date hereof and on the terms and conditions herein, the number of restricted stock units set forth on the signature page hereof, each representing the Grantee's right to receive one share of Common Stock at the time or times provided for in Section 3 hereof, subject to the terms and conditions described herein (the "Restricted Stock Units" or "Units").

(b)

2005 Nonemployee Director Stock Plan. This Agreement is subject in all respects to the terms of the Plan, all of which terms are made a part of and incorporated in this Agreement by reference. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of the Plan, the terms of the Plan shall control. The Grantee hereby acknowledges that copies of the Plan may be obtained from the Vice President of Human Resources and agrees to comply with and be bound by all of the terms and conditions thereof.

(c)

Establishment of Account. No shares of Common Stock will be issued on the date of grant of the Restricted Stock Units and the Company shall not be required to set aside a fund for the payment of any such Units. The Company will establish a separate account for the Grantee and will record in such account the number of Restricted Stock Units awarded to the Grantee and, to the extent applicable, the Dividend Equivalents provided for in Section 3(b) hereof.

Vesting and Settlement of Restricted Stock Units.

(a)

Vesting and Settlement. The Restricted Stock Units will become vested in whole on the sixth anniversary of the date of grant, _____, ____, or such other date as determined by the Board (the "Vesting Date"), subject to the Grantee's continuous service as a member of the Board of Directors of the Company from the date hereof to the Vesting Date. After the Restricted Stock Units have become vested on the Vesting Date, they shall settle upon the termination of Grantee’s status as a member of the Board of Directors of the Company, or such other date as determined by the Board (“the Settlement Date”).

(b)

Acceleration. The Board may, in its discretion, accelerate the vesting and/or settlement of all or any portion of the Restricted Stock Units or waive any conditions to the vesting and/or settlement of such Restricted Stock Units.

(c)

Termination of Status as a Board Member. In the event of the Grantee's termination of service as a member of the Board of Directors of the Company prior to the Vesting Date, the Grantee shall immediately forfeit all rights with respect to any Restricted Stock Units (and Dividend Equivalents) which have not yet vested in accordance with the provisions of Section 2(a) of this Agreement.

3.

Payment of Restricted Stock Unit Award.

(a)

Payment. On, or as soon as reasonably practicable after, the Settlement Date, subject to Section 4 hereof, the Company shall direct its stock transfer agent to make (or to cause to be made) an appropriate book entry

in the Company's stock transfer books and records reflecting the transfer to the Grantee, and the Grantee's ownership, of one share of Common Stock for each Restricted Stock Unit that shall have become vested and settled on such Settlement Date. Upon the Grantee's request, subject to Section 4 hereof, the Company shall deliver to the Grantee a stock certificate registered in the Grantee's name and representing such number of shares of Common Stock free and clear of all restrictions except any that may be imposed by law. No payment will be required to be made by the Grantee upon the delivery of such shares of Common Stock, except as otherwise provided in Section 4 of this Agreement.

(b)

Dividend Equivalents. Unless otherwise determined by the Board, the Company will credit to the account of the Grantee an amount equal to any dividends or dividend equivalents and other distributions paid by the Company with respect to the number of shares of Common Stock corresponding to the number of Restricted Stock Units ("Dividend Equivalents"). Dividend Equivalents in respect of Restricted Stock Units that shall have become vested on the Vesting Date shall be payable to the Grantee on the Settlement Date.

(c)

Restrictions on Sale upon Public Offering. The Grantee hereby agrees that, notwithstanding the vesting of the Restricted Stock Units pursuant to Section 2(a) of this Agreement or the transfer of the shares of Common Stock covered thereby to the Grantee pursuant to Section 3(a) hereof, the Grantee will not effect any public sale or distribution of any of such shares of Common Stock during the 20 day period prior to and the 180 days following the effective date of any registration statement hereinafter filed by the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, with respect to any underwritten public offering of any shares of the Company's capital stock (other than as part of such underwritten public offering).

4.

Tax Withholding. The delivery of any directions to the Company's stock transfer agent or any certificates for shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 3 shall not be made unless and until the Grantee, or, if applicable, the Grantee's beneficiary or estate, has made appropriate arrangements for the payment to the Company of an amount sufficient to satisfy any applicable U.S. federal, state and local and non-U.S. tax withholding or other tax requirements, as determined by the Company. To satisfy the Grantee's applicable withholding and other tax requirements, the Company may, in its sole discretion, (i) withhold a number of shares of Common Stock having an aggregate Fair Market Value on the Settlement Date equal to the applicable amount of such withholding and other tax requirements or (ii) require the Grantee to sell a number of shares of Common Stock having at least a value sufficient to meet the applicable amount of such withholding and other tax requirements to account for rounding and market fluctuations, subject to any rules adopted by the Board or required to ensure compliance with applicable

law, including, but not limited to, Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Shares required to be sold to satisfy the Grantee’s applicable withholding and other tax requirements may be sold as part of a block trade with the Grantee receiving an average price. Any cash payment made pursuant to Section 3 shall be made net of any amounts required to be withheld or paid with respect thereto (and with respect to any shares of Common Stock delivered contemporaneously therewith) under any applicable U.S. federal, state and local and non-U.S. tax withholding and other tax requirements.

5.

Transferability. Unless otherwise provided in accordance with the provisions of the Plan, the Restricted Stock Units may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned or otherwise alienated or hypothecated by the Grantee, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. The term "Grantee" as used in this Agreement shall include any permitted transferee of the Restricted Stock Units.

6.

Adjustment in Capitalization.

(a)

The aggregate number of shares of Common Stock covered by the Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder shall be proportionately adjusted to reflect, as deemed equitable and appropriate by the Board, an Adjustment Event.

(b)

Any shares of stock (whether Common Stock, shares of stock into which shares of Common Stock are converted or for which shares of Common Stock are exchanged or shares of stock distributed with respect to Common Stock) or cash or other property received or credited to the account of the Grantee with respect to the Restricted Stock Units as a result of any Adjustment Event, any distribution of property or any merger, consolidation, reorganization, liquidation, dissolution or other similar transaction shall, except as otherwise provided by the Board, be subject to the same terms and conditions, including restrictions on transfer, as are applicable to the Restricted Stock Units with respect to which such shares, cash or other property is received or so credited and stock certificate(s), if any, representing or evidencing any shares of stock or other property so received shall be legended as appropriate.

7.

Preemption by Applicable Laws and Regulations. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or this Agreement to the contrary, the issuance of shares of Common Stock hereunder shall be subject to compliance with all applicable U.S. federal, state and non-U.S. securities laws. Without limiting the foregoing, if any law, regulation or requirement of any governmental authority having jurisdiction shall require either the Company or the Grantee (or the Grantee's beneficiary or estate) to take any action in connection with the issuance of any shares of Common Stock hereunder, the issuance of such

shares shall be deferred until such action shall have been taken to the satisfaction of the Company.
