On any given date, the value of each Restricted Stock Unit comprising the Award shall equal the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock. The Award shall vest and settle in accordance with Section 3 hereof.

2.Incorporation by Reference, Etc. The provisions of the Plan are hereby incorporated herein by reference. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, this Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the provisions of the Plan and any capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the definitions set forth in the Plan. In the event of a conflict between the Plan and this Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Plan shall govern. The Committee shall have final authority to interpret and construe the Plan and this Agreement and to make any and all determinations under them, and its decision shall be binding and conclusive upon the Participant and his legal representative in respect of any questions arising under the Plan or this Agreement.

3.Terms and Conditions for Award. The Award shall be one hundred percent (100%) unvested on the Date of Grant. Subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement, and contingent upon the Participant’s continued service to the

Company through the Vesting Date (as defined below), the Award shall vest and be settled as follows:

(a)Service Vesting. The Award shall be eligible to vest, subject to the Participant’s continued employment through [date] (the “Vesting Date”).

(b)Settlement of the Award. The Company shall settle the Award on the Vesting Date, and shall therefore issue (in book-entry form) in the name of the Participant one share of Common Stock (each, an “RSU Share”) for each such vested Restricted Stock Unit comprising the Award (and, upon such settlement, those Restricted Stock Units shall cease to be credited to the Account).

4.Effect of Termination of Employment on Awards.

(a)Except as set forth in the Plan or this Agreement if the Participant’s employment with the Company terminates prior to the Vesting Date for any reason, the Award and all Restricted Stock Units credited to the Participant’s Account comprising the Award shall be forfeited without consideration to the Participant on the date of the employment termination.

(b)Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in this Agreement or the Plan, to the extent that the Participant’s employment agreement or severance agreement with the Company or an Affiliate contains more favorable treatment upon termination, then the terms of such agreement shall govern.

5.Miscellaneous.

(a)Dividend Equivalents. If on any date dividends are paid on shares of Common Stock, then the Participant’s Account shall be credited with dividend equivalent payments either in cash or, at the sole discretion of the Committee, in shares of Common Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount of such dividends, which accumulated dividend equivalents shall be payable and forfeited at the same time as the underlying Restricted Stock Units are settled or forfeited, and, if Restricted Stock Units are forfeited, the Participant shall have no right to any dividend equivalent payments relating thereto.

(b)Taxes and Withholding. Upon the settlement of any portion of the Award, the Participant shall be required to pay to the Company, and the Company shall have the right and is hereby authorized to withhold from any cash, RSU Shares, other securities or other property deliverable under the Restricted Stock Units or from any compensation or other amounts owing to the Participant, the amount (in cash, RSU Shares, other securities or other property) of any required withholding taxes in respect of the settlement of Restricted Stock Units, and to take such other action as may be necessary in the sole discretion of the Committee to satisfy all obligations for the payment of such withholding taxes. The withholding of RSU Shares shall only be permitted to the extent authorized by the Committee, and the management shall not be authorized to disallow the withholding of such RSU Shares to satisfy tax withholding. In addition, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, permit the Participant to satisfy, in whole or in part, the foregoing withholding liability by (A) the

delivery of shares of Common Stock (which are not subject to any pledge or other security interest and which would not result in adverse accounting to the Company) owned by the Participant having a Fair Market Value equal to such withholding liability or (B) having the Company withhold from the number of RSU Shares otherwise issuable or deliverable pursuant to the settlement of the Restricted Stock Units a number of shares with a Fair Market Value equal to such withholding liability (but no more than the maximum statutory withholding liability). The obligations of the Company under this Agreement will be conditional on such payment or arrangements, and the Company has the right to deduct any such withholding taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise due to Participant.
