On each vesting date listed in the Award Agreement, the Company will issue such number of shares of Common Stock as are equal to the applicable number of RSUs vesting on such date, less such number of shares of Common Stock as are required to be withheld to satisfy Recipient’s tax withholding obligations.

In the event of any change in the shares subject to the Plan or to any Award granted under the Plan by reason of a merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization, stock dividend, stock split, combination or exchange of shares, or other change in the structure of the Company, the number of RSUs and the number of shares of Common Stock shall be appropriately adjusted by the Company and such adjustment shall be final, binding and conclusive.

9. No Right to Employment. The granting of the Award does not confer upon the Recipient the right to continue in the service of the Company, or affect in any way the right and power of the Company to terminate the service of the Recipient at any time with or without assigning a reason therefor, to the same extent as the Company might have done if the Award had not been granted.
