Omnibus Stock and Option Compensation Plan (the “Plan”). To the extent any capitalized terms used in this Agreement are not defined, they shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Plan, which is attached to, and made a part of, this Agreement. In the event of a conflict between the terms and provisions of the Plan and the terms and provisions of this Agreement, the Plan terms and provisions shall prevail.

In consideration of the mutual agreements herein contained and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties agree as follows:

1. Restricted Stock Units. Pursuant to the Plan, the Company hereby grants to you, and you hereby accept from the Company,              stock units, each of which is a bookkeeping entry representing the equivalent in value of one (1) Share (the “Restricted Stock Units”), on the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Plan.

2. Vesting of Restricted Stock Units. So long as your Service continues, the Restricted Stock Units shall vest in accordance with the following schedule (each date specified being a “Vesting Date”):

Settlement of vested Restricted Stock Units, if any, shall be made as soon as practicable after the applicable Vesting Date, but in any event no later than the fifteenth (15th) day of the third (3rd) month following the end of the calendar year containing the applicable Vesting Date. [Notwithstanding the foregoing, all Restricted Stock Units shall immediately vest and be settled upon a Change in Control.][Except as set forth in any employment agreement, such Restricted Stock Units shall not vest upon a Change in Control.]

3. Termination of Service. In the event of the termination of your Service for any reason prior to the applicable Vesting Date, all unvested Restricted Stock Units shall be immediately forfeited without consideration.

4. Settlement of Restricted Stock Units. Restricted Stock Units shall be settled in Shares, provided that the Company shall have no obligation to issue Shares pursuant to this Agreement unless you have satisfied any applicable tax obligations pursuant to Section 5 below and such issuance otherwise complies with all applicable law. Prior to the time the Restricted Stock Units are settled, you will have no rights other than those of a general creditor of the Company. Restricted Stock Units represent an unfunded and unsecured obligation of the Company.

5. Withholding Taxes. You agree to make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for the satisfaction of any applicable tax obligations that arise in connection with the Restricted Stock Units which, at the sole discretion of the Committee, may include (i) having the Company withhold Shares from the settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, or (ii) any other arrangement approved by the Company, in either case, equal in value to the amount necessary to satisfy any such tax obligations. The Company shall not be required to issue Shares pursuant to this Agreement unless such obligations are satisfied.

6. Tax Advice. You represent, warrant and acknowledge that the Company has made no warranties or representations to you with respect to the income tax consequences of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and you are in no manner relying on the Company or the Company’s representatives for an assessment of such tax consequences. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT THE TAX LAWS AND REGULATIONS ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE. YOU SHOULD CONSULT YOUR OWN TAX ADVISOR REGARDING ANY RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS. NOTHING STATED HEREIN IS INTENDED OR WRITTEN TO BE USED, AND CANNOT BE USED, FOR THE PURPOSE OF AVOIDING TAXPAYER PENALTIES.

7. Non-Transferability of Restricted Stock Units. The Restricted Stock Units shall not be transferable other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. The designation of a beneficiary or entry into a will or similar arrangement does not constitute a transfer. The terms of this Agreement shall be binding upon your executors, administrators, heirs, successors and assigns.

8. Restriction on Transfer. Regardless of whether the transfer or issuance of the Shares to be issued pursuant to the Restricted Stock Units have been registered under the Securities Act or have been registered or qualified under the securities laws of any state, the Company may impose additional restrictions upon the sale, pledge, or other transfer of the Shares (including the placement of appropriate legends on stock certificates, if any, and the issuance of stop-transfer instructions to the Company’s transfer agent) if, in the judgment of the Company and the Company’s counsel, such restrictions are necessary in order to achieve compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act, the securities laws of any state, or any other law.

9. Stock Certificate Restrictive Legends. Stock certificates evidencing the Shares issued pursuant to the Restricted Stock Units, if any, may bear such restrictive legends as the Company and the Company’s counsel deem necessary under applicable law or pursuant to this Agreement.

10. Representations, Warranties, Covenants, and Acknowledgments. You hereby agree that in the event the Company and the Company’s counsel deem it necessary or advisable in the exercise of their discretion, the transfer or issuance of the Shares issued pursuant to the Restricted Stock Units may be conditioned upon you making certain representations, warranties, and acknowledgments relating to compliance with applicable securities laws.

11. Voting and Other Rights. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, you shall not have any voting rights or any other rights and privileges of a stockholder of the Company unless and until the Restricted Stock Units are settled.
