At or after the end of the applicable Restricted Period, the Recipient shall receive certificates or other indicia of ownership for Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Restricted Stock that became vested at the end of that Restricted Period, free and clear of the restrictions set forth in this Agreement, except for any restrictions necessary to comply with federal and state securities laws. Any certificates or other indicia of ownership representing such shares shall be released to the Recipient as promptly as practical following the Recipient’s becoming entitled to receive such shares.

4. Forfeiture by Reason of Detrimental Activity. The shares of Restricted Stock shall be subject to Section 17(n) of the Plan. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if the Recipient engages in any Detrimental Activity at any time prior to or during the one year period after the latest date on which any portion of the shares of

- 4 -

Restricted Stock become vested but prior to a Change in Control, the Company shall, upon the recommendation of the Committee in its sole and absolute discretion, be entitled to (a) immediately terminate and cancel any portion of the shares of Restricted Stock that have not previously vested, and (b) require that within two (2) years after the latest date on which any portion of the Restricted Stock vests but prior to a Change in Control, the Recipient (i) return to the Company any shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to this Agreement, or if such shares of Common Stock are not still owned by the Recipient, that the Recipient pay to the Company an amount equal to the fair market value of such shares of Common Stock on the date they were issued, or if later, the date on which they became vested, and (ii) return to the Company any cash or other property (other than Common Stock) received by the Recipient from the Company pursuant to this Agreement. Awards shall also be subject to cancellation and/or clawback by the Committee if and to the extent required under applicable law.

5. Right to Set Off. By accepting this Agreement, the Recipient consents to a deduction from any amounts the Company owes the Recipient from time to time (including amounts owed to the Recipient as wages or other compensation, for any benefits, or vacation pay, as well as any other amounts owed to the Recipient by the Company), up to the dollar amount the Recipient owes the Company under Section 4 hereof. Whether or not the Company elects to make any set off in whole or in part, if the Company does not recover by means of set off the full amount the Recipient owes the Company calculated as set forth in Section 4 hereof, the Recipient agrees to pay immediately the unpaid balance to the Company.

6. Board of Director Discretion. The Recipient may be released from his or her obligations under Sections 4 and 5 hereof only if the Board of Directors of the Company, or a duly authorized committee thereof, determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, that such action is not adverse to the interests of the Company.

7. No Right to Continued Employment or Service. This Agreement does not confer upon the Recipient any right with respect to continuance of employment or service by the Company, nor shall it interfere in any way with the right of the Company to terminate the Recipient’s employment or service at any time.

8. Change of Control or Capital Structure.

(a) Subject to any required action by the shareholders of the Company, the number of shares of Restricted Stock covered by this award shall be proportionately adjusted and the terms of the restrictions on such shares shall be adjusted as the Committee shall determine to be equitably required for any increase or decrease in the number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company resulting from any stock dividend (but only on the Common Stock), stock split, subdivision, combination, reclassification, recapitalization or general issuance to the holders of Common Stock of rights to purchase Common Stock at substantially below Fair Market Value or any change in the number of such shares outstanding effected without receipt of cash or property or labor or services by the Company or for any spin-off, spin-out, split-up, split-off or other distribution of assets to shareholders.

(b) The Restricted Stock shall not become immediately vested in the event that a Change in Control occurs, except to the extent required in any employment agreement or

- 5 -

consulting agreement between the Company and the Recipient or under the Company’s Executive Separation Policy, as amended from time to time and as applicable. In the event of a change in the Common Stock as presently constituted, which is limited to a change in all of its authorized shares without par value into the same number of shares with par value, the shares resulting from any such change shall be deemed to be the Common Stock within the meaning of the Plan.

(c) The award of Restricted Stock pursuant to the Plan shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Company to make adjustments, reclassifications, reorganizations or changes of its capital or business structure or to merge or to consolidate or to dissolve, liquidate or sell, or transfer all or any part of its business or assets.

9. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its principles of conflict of laws. The parties agree that any action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relative to this Agreement or the relationship of the Recipient and the Company, shall be instituted only in the state or federal courts located in Maricopa County in the State of Arizona, and each party waives any objection which such party may now or hereafter have to such venue or jurisdictional court in any action, suit, or proceeding.

10. Severability. The invalidity or enforceability of any one or more provisions of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect. In the event that a court of competent jurisdiction should determine that any time period provided for in Section 4 is unenforceable, then such period shall be reduced to the longest period of time which such court shall deem enforceable, taking into consideration the purpose and intent of the Plan to serve the interests of the Company and its shareholders.
