(B)                   the consummation of the merger or consolidation of the Company with any other company, other than (i) a merger or consolidation which would result in the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity), in combination with the ownership of any trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, more than 60% of the combined voting power of the voting securities of the Company or such surviving entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation and (ii) a merger or consolidation effected to implement a recapitalization of the Company (or similar transaction) after which no “person” “beneficially owns” (with the determination of such “beneficial ownership” on the same basis as set forth in clause (A) of this definition) securities of the Company or the surviving entity of such merger or consolidation representing 40% or more of the combined voting power of the securities of the Company or the surviving entity of such merger or consolidation;

 

(C)                   if during any period of two consecutive years (not including any period prior to the date the Plan was initially adopted), individuals who at the beginning of such period constitute the Board, and any new director (other than a director designated by a person who has conducted or threatened a proxy contest, or has entered into an agreement with the Company to effect a transaction described in clause (A), (B) or (D) of this definition) whose election by the Board or nomination for election by the Company’s stockholders was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the directors then still in office, who either were directors at the beginning of the period or whose election or nomination for election was previously so approved cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority thereof; or

Grantee’s death, to the person to whom the Award has passed by will or the laws of descent and distribution).  No Stock will be issued pursuant to this Award unless and until all legal requirements applicable to the issuance or transfer of such Stock have been complied with to the satisfaction of the Administrator.

 

5.                                      Dividends; Other Rights.  The Award shall not be interpreted to bestow upon the Grantee any equity interest or ownership in the Company or any Affiliate prior to the date on which the Company delivers shares of Stock, if any, to the Grantee hereunder.  The Grantee is not entitled to vote any shares of Stock by reason of the granting of this Award or to receive or be credited with any dividends declared and payable on any share of Stock prior to the date on which any such share is delivered to the Grantee hereunder.  The Grantee shall have the rights of a shareholder only as to those shares of Stock, if any, that are actually delivered under this Award.

 

6.                                      Forfeiture; Recovery of Compensation. By accepting the Award the Grantee expressly acknowledges and agrees that (i) his or her rights (and those of any permitted transferee) under the Award or to any Stock acquired under the Award or any proceeds from the disposition thereof are subject to Section 6(a)(5) of the Plan (including any successor provision) and (ii) any Stock acquired hereunder is subject to forfeiture, termination and rescission, and the Grantee will be obligated to return to the Company the value received with respect to such Stock (including any gain realized on any subsequent sale or disposition of shares) (A) in accordance with any Company clawback or other policy relating to the recovery of incentive compensation, as such policy may be amended and in effect from time to time, or (B) as otherwise required by law or applicable stock exchange listing standards, including, without limitation, Section 10D of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  Nothing in the preceding sentence shall be construed as limiting the general application of Section 10 of this Agreement.

 

7.                                      Nontransferability.  Neither the Award nor the Restricted Stock Units may be transferred except at death in accordance with Section 6(a)(3) of the Plan.

 

8.                                      Certain Tax Matters.  The Grantee expressly acknowledges and agrees that he or she shall be responsible for satisfying and paying all taxes arising from or due in connection with the grant or vesting of the Restricted Stock Units and/or the delivery of any Stock hereunder.  The Company shall have no liability or obligation relating to the foregoing.

 

9.                                      Effect on Service.  Neither the grant of the Restricted Stock Units, nor the delivery of Stock upon vesting of the Award, will give the Grantee any right to be retained in the service of the Company or any of its Affiliates, affect the right of the Company or any of its Affiliates to discharge the Grantee at any time, or affect any right of the Grantee to terminate his or her service at any time.

 

10.                               Provisions of the Plan.  This Agreement is subject in its entirety to the provisions of the Plan, which are incorporated herein by reference.  A copy of the Plan as in effect on the Grant Date has been furnished to the Grantee.  By accepting the Award, the Grantee agrees to be bound by the terms of the Plan and this Agreement.  In the event
