enforceable against any transferee of Restricted Stock.

(b)

the Restricted Stock on the day before the date of the first annual meeting of

remained a director of the Company continuously from the Effective Date through
the Annual Meeting Lapse Date; provided, however, that if, prior to the Annual
Meeting Lapse Date, (i) Director terminates service as a director by reason of
death or Disability, or (ii) a Change of Control occurs, then, in each case, the
Forfeiture Restrictions on all Restricted Stock issued to Director shall
immediately lapse as of the date of his or her termination of service as a
director or as of the date of the Change of Control, as applicable. To the
extent that the lapse conditions are not satisfied, Director shall automatically
for no consideration forfeit and surrender to the Company all of the Restricted
Stock that are then subject to Forfeiture Restrictions.

name of the Director and shall bear an appropriate legend referring to the
terms, conditions and restrictions applicable to the Restricted Stock. The
Company shall retain custody of any stock certificate until the Forfeiture
Restrictions lapse. The Company may require Director to execute and deliver a
stock power, in blank, with respect to the Restricted Stock, and the Company may
exercise such stock power in the event of forfeiture. Promptly upon the lapse of
the Forfeiture Restrictions without forfeiture, the Company shall cause a new
certificate or certificates to be issued without legend in the name of Director
