WHEREAS, the Plan provides for the Grant to Grantees in the Plan of restricted share units for shares of Stock of the Company;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1. Investment. The Grantee represents that the Restricted Stock Units (as defined herein) are being acquired for investment and not with a view toward the distribution thereof.

2. Grant of Restricted Stock Units. Pursuant to, and subject to, the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Plan, the Company hereby grants to the Grantee an award of Restricted Stock Units for              shares of Stock of the Company (collectively, the “Restricted Stock Units”). The Purchase Price for the Restricted Stock Units shall be paid by the Grantee’s services to the Company.

3. Grant Date. The Grant Date of the Restricted Stock Units hereby granted is             ,     .

4. Incorporation of the Plan. All terms, conditions and restrictions of the Plan are incorporated herein and made part hereof as if stated herein. If there is any conflict between the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement, the terms and conditions of this Agreement, as interpreted by the Board, or a Committee thereof, shall govern. Unless otherwise indicated herein, all capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Plan.

5. Vesting and Delivery Date. The Restricted Stock Units shall vest as follows provided the Grantee remains employed by the Company on each such date:

(a) One-third of the Restricted Stock Units shall vest if the combined Operating Income for the Company for 2012 and 2013 is equal to or greater than $         million but less than $         million, with 50% of such number of Restricted Stock Units vesting on February 15, 2014 and 50% of such number of Restricted Stock Units vesting on February 15, 2015; OR

(b) Two-thirds of the Restricted Stock Units shall vest if the combined Operating Income for the Company for 2012 and 2013 is equal to or greater than $         million but less than $         million, with 50% of such number of Restricted Stock Units vesting on February 15, 2014 and 50% of such number of Restricted Stock Units vesting on February 15, 2015; OR

(c) All of the Restricted Stock Units shall vest if the combined Operating Income for the Company for 2012 and 2013 is equal to or greater than $         million, with 50% of such number of Restricted Stock Units vesting on February 15, 2014 and 50% of such number of Restricted Stock Units vesting on February 15, 2015.


As used in this Section 5, the term “Operating Income” shall mean the Company’s income from operations as reported in the Company’s audited financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles excluding the impact of any generally accepted accounting principle changes implemented after the date hereof.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) in the event that the Grantee’s employment is terminated on account of the Grantee’s death or Disability at any time, all unvested Restricted Stock Units not previously forfeited shall immediately vest on such date of termination and (ii) in the event of a Change in Control, all unvested Restricted Stock Units not previously forfeited shall vest on such Change in Control. On the first business day after each vesting date, the Company shall deliver to Grantee the shares of stock to which the Restricted Stock Units relate, provided, however, that if the shares of stock would otherwise vest during a period in which Grantee is (i) subject to a lock-up agreement restricting Grantee’s ability to sell the shares in the open market or (ii) restricted from selling the shares in the open market because Grantee is not then eligible to sell under the Company’s insider trading or similar plan as then in effect (whether because a trading window is not open or Grantee is otherwise restricted from trading), delivery of the shares will be delayed until the first date on which Grantee is no longer prohibited from selling the shares due to a lock-up agreement or insider trading or similar plan restriction.

6. Forfeiture. Subject to the provisions of the Plan and Section 5 of this Agreement, with respect to the Restricted Stock Units which have not become vested on the date the Grantee’s employment is terminated, the Award of Restricted Stock Units shall expire and such unvested Restricted Stock Units shall immediately be forfeited on such date.

7. Employment Confidentiality Agreement. As a condition to the grant of the Restricted Stock Units, Grantee shall have executed and become a party to the Employee Confidentiality, Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation Agreement by and between Grantee and the Company (the “Confidentiality, Non-Compete and Non-Solicitation Agreement”) attached hereto as Attachment B.

9. Delays or Omissions. No delay or omission to exercise any right, power, or remedy accruing to any party hereto upon any breach or default of any party under this Agreement, shall impair any such right, power or remedy of such party nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach or default, or an acquiescence therein, or of any similar breach or default thereafter occurring nor shall any waiver of any single breach or default be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default theretofore or thereafter occurring. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of any party of any breach or default under this Agreement, or any waiver on the part of any party or any provisions or conditions of this Agreement, shall be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing.

11. Withholding Taxes. Grantee agrees, as a condition of this grant, that Grantee will make acceptable arrangements to pay any withholding or other taxes that may be due as a result of vesting in Restricted Stock Units or delivery of shares acquired under this grant. Grantee may


elect to satisfy such obligations, in whole or in part, by causing the Company to withhold shares of Stock otherwise issuable to the Grantee as provided under the Plan. In the event that the Company determines that any federal, state, local, municipal or foreign tax or withholding payment is required relating to the vesting in Restricted Stock Units or delivery of shares arising from this grant, the Company shall have the right to require such payments from Grantee in the form and manner as provided in the Plan.
