ADDITIONAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF YOUR RESTRICTED STOCK
PLAN ADMINISTRATION.
| The Plan is administered on behalf of the Committee by the Plan administrator. The Plan administrator is responsible for assisting you with respect to your Restricted Stock and maintaining the records of the Plan. If you have questions about your Restricted Stock or how the Plan works, please contact the Plan administrator at ***@*** or ###-###-####. |
| Except as provided herein and in the Plan, the Restricted Stock is non-transferable. The Restricted Stock may be transferred by will or the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order and, notwithstanding the foregoing, during the Participants lifetime may be transferred by the Participant to any of the Participants Permitted Transferees. Any such transfer will be permitted only if (i) the Participant does not receive any consideration for the transfer and (ii) the Plan administrator expressly approves the transfer. Any transferee to whom the Restricted Stock is transferred shall be bound by the same terms and conditions, including with respect to vesting, that govern the Restricted Stock in the hands of the Participant; provided, however, that the transferee may not transfer the Restricted Stock except by will or the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order. No right or interest of the Participant or any transferee in the Restricted Stock shall be subject to any lien, obligation or liability of the Participant or any transferee. |
| You may pay any applicable tax withholding (i) in cash, (ii) by certified or bank cashiers check, or (iii) by such other medium of payment as the Plan administrator in his sole discretion may permit. The Plan administrator will determine the amount of any required tax withholding. |
| Until the shares of Restricted Stock become vested, in lieu of issuing certificates for such shares, PRGX may reflect in its books and records the issuance of the Restricted Stock. If stock certificates evidencing the shares of Restricted Stock are issued before the Restricted Stock becomes vested, PRGX shall retain custody of such stock certificates until the shares of Restricted Stock become vested. As soon as administratively practicable (and within 30 days) after the shares of Restricted Stock become vested, the Company will deliver to the Participant or make available to the Participants broker the shares of Restricted Stock that have become vested. |
EFFECT OF TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT AND CHANGE IN CONTROL.
| Termination of Employment. If your employment with PRGX terminates for any reason prior to the Restricted Stock becoming vested, any Restricted Stock that is not then vested will be forfeited immediately upon the termination of your employment for any reason. |
| Change in Control. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, as such term is defined in the Plan, one-hundred percent (100%) of the shares of Restricted Stock shall become vested and non-forfeitable if you have remained in the continuous employ of PRGX from the Grant Date until the time of the Change in Control. Accordingly, subsequent termination of your employment for any reason after the Change in Control will not result in forfeiture of your shares of Common Stock. |
