(a) if this is a Section 409A Compliant Award (as defined below):

(b) if this is not a  Section 409A Compliant Award:

7. Securities Law Compliance.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Shares may not be issued upon settlement of this award unless the Shares are then registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) or, if such Shares are not then so registered, the Committee or the Board has determined that such issuance would be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.  The issuance of such Shares must also comply with other applicable laws and regulations governing such Shares, and the issuance of such Shares may be delayed if the Committee or the Board determines that such issuance would not be in compliance with such laws and regulations, provided that issuance of the Shares shall be completed as soon as reasonably practicable following the first date on which the Company anticipates or should reasonably anticipate that issuing the Shares would not cause a violation or such earlier date as required to avoid causing this award to fail to be exempt from or to otherwise comply with Section 409A of the Code.

8. Transferability.  Your RSUs are not transferable, except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, by delivering written notice to the Company, in a form satisfactory to the Company, you may designate a third party (your “Beneficiary”) who, in the event of your death, shall then be entitled to receive the Shares upon settlement of this award payable as of the date of your death, if any.

9. Agreement Not a Service Contract or Obligation to Continue Service.   This Agreement is not an employment or service contract, and nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to create in any way whatsoever any obligation on your part to continue in the service of the Company or Subsidiary as an employee for any period of time.  In addition, nothing in this Agreement shall obligate the Company or a Subsidiary to continue your employment for any period of time.

10. Withholding of RSU Shares to Cover Tax Withholding Obligations.

(a) At the time of issuance of the Shares issuable upon settlement of this award (or earlier, if applicable), to the extent required by law or applicable regulation,  the Company shall withhold from the Shares otherwise issuable to you a number of whole Shares having a Fair Market Value as of the Settlement Date (or earlier, if applicable),  equal to the minimum amount of taxes required to be withheld by law.  The Fair Market Value of the withheld whole number of Shares that is in excess of the minimum amount of taxes required to be withheld shall be added to the deposit for your U.S. federal income tax withholding or, if you are an international taxpayer, such amount shall be added to the largest deposit of withheld tax required to be made by the Company on your behalf.

(b) Your Shares may not be issued unless the tax withholding obligations of the Company, if any, are satisfied.  Accordingly, the Company shall have no obligation to issue a certificate for such Shares until such tax withholding obligations are satisfied or otherwise provided for.  Upon notice of the requirement for recovery from you of any amount due as a tax withholding obligation, you agree to promptly remit to the Company or Subsidiary the full amount due. 

11. Notices.   Any notices provided for in the Plan or this Agreement shall be given electronically or in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon receipt or, in the case of notices delivered by mail by the Company to you, five (5) days after deposit in the United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to you at the last address you provided to the Company.

Governing Plan Document.   This Agreement is subject to all the provisions of the Plan, the provisions of which are incorporated by reference in this Agreement.  This Agreement is further subject to all interpretations, amendments, rules and regulations which may from time to time be promulgated and adopted pursuant to the Plan.  In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall control.

13. Code Section 409A Compliance.  To the extent applicable, it is intended that this award and the Plan comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and any related regulations or other guidance promulgated with respect to such Section by the U.S. Department of the Treasury or the Internal Revenue Service. Any provision that would cause the Plan or this award to fail to satisfy Section 409A shall have no force or effect until amended to comply with Section 409A, which amendment may be retroactive to the extent permitted by Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if this is not a Section 409A Compliant Award, in no event will the Shares issuable pursuant to this award be issued later than March 15th of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the RSUs have vested.

(a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any compensation or benefits payable under this Agreement that is designated under this Agreement as payable upon your Termination of Employment shall be payable only upon your “separation from service” with the Company within the meaning of Section 409A (a “Separation from Service”).

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if you are deemed by the Company at the time of your Separation from Service to be a “specified employee” for purposes of Section 409A, to the extent delayed commencement of any portion of the benefits to which you are entitled under this Agreement is required in order to avoid a prohibited distribution under Section 409A, such portion of the Shares issuable to you pursuant to this award shall not be provided to you prior to the earlier of (x) the expiration of the six-month

(c) Your right to receive any installment payments under this Agreement shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate payments and, accordingly, each such installment payment shall at all times be considered a separate and distinct payment as permitted under Section 409A.  Except as otherwise permitted under Section 409A, no payment hereunder shall be accelerated or deferred unless such acceleration or deferral would not result in additional tax or interest pursuant to Section 409A.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Change in Control would give rise to a payment or settlement event with respect to any payment or benefit under this Agreement that constitutes “nonqualified deferred compensation,” the transaction or event constituting the Change in Control must also constitute a “change in control event” (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5)) in order to give rise to the payment or settlement event for such payment or benefit, to the extent required by Section 409A. 

(e) This award will be a “Section 409A Compliant Award” if (i) you will be eligible for Retirement at any time prior to the final Scheduled Vesting Date, (ii) you are a party to an executive Change in Control Severance Agreement with the Company as applicable for Executive Officers at any time prior to the final Scheduled Vesting Date, or (iii) this award otherwise constitutes “nonqualified deferred compensation” for purposes of Section 409A.
