including by way of sale, assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation or
otherwise, shall be null and void and without effect.

(d)    Lapse of Restrictions.   Except as may otherwise be provided herein, the
restrictions on transfer set forth in Section 2(b) shall lapse with respect to
thirty three and one-third percent (33-1/3%) of the shares of Restricted Stock
granted hereunder on _________ (the "First Vesting Date") and with respect to an
additional thirty three and one-third percent (33-1/3%) of such shares on each
of the first and second anniversaries of the First Vesting Date, so long as the
Grantee is employed by or providing services to the Company or an Affiliate as
of the relevant date.

Upon each lapse of restrictions relating to Restricted Stock, the Company shall
issue to the Grantee or the Grantee's personal representative a stock
certificate representing a number of shares of Stock, free of the restrictive
legend described in Section 2(c), equal to the number of shares of Restricted
Stock with respect to which such restrictions have lapsed. If certificates
representing such Restricted Stock shall have theretofore been delivered to the
Grantee, such certificates shall be returned to the Company, complete with any
necessary signatures or instruments of transfer prior to the issuance by the
Company of such unlegended shares of Stock.

(e)    Termination of Employment.   In the event that the Grantee ceases to be
employed by the Company and its Affiliates prior to the lapsing of restrictions
with respect to any portion of the Restricted Stock granted hereunder, such
portion of the Restricted Stock held by the Grantee shall become free of such
restrictions or be forfeited as follows:

(i) If the Grantee's employment is terminated due to his/her death or
disability, as determined by the Committee, all restrictions applicable to 50%
of the Restricted Stock then subject to this Award shall lapse as of the
effective date such termination of employment;

(ii) If the Grantee's employment is terminated by the Company or an Affiliate
for Cause, or if the Grantee voluntarily terminates his/her employment, all such
Restricted Stock then held by the Grantee (or his/her legatees, personal
representative or Permitted Transferees) shall be forfeited as of the date of
such termination; and

(iii) If the Grantee's termination of employment is for any other reason
(including a Grantee's ceasing to be employed by an Affiliate as a result of the
sale of such subsidiary or an interest in such Affiliate), all Restricted Stock
then held by the Grantee (or his/her legatees, personal representative or
Permitted Transferees) as of the date of such termination of employment shall be
forfeited as of the date of such termination unless otherwise determined by the
Committee in its sole discretion.

Restricted Stock forfeited pursuant to this Section 2(e) shall be transferred
to, and reacquired by, the Company without payment of any consideration by the
Company, and neither the Grantee nor any of the Grantee's successors, heirs,
assigns, personal representatives or Permitted Transferees shall thereafter have
any further rights or interests in such shares or certificates. If certificates
containing restrictive legends shall have theretofore been delivered to the
Grantee (or his/her legatees, personal representative or Permitted Transferee),
such certificates shall be returned to the Company, complete with any necessary
signatures or instruments of transfer.

(f)    Additional Forfeiture upon Termination for Cause.   In addition to the
forfeiture of Restricted Stock as provided in Section 2(e), if the Grantee's
termination of employment or service is by the Company or an Affiliate for Cause
(as defined below), the Grantee shall forfeit, and shall return to the Company
without consideration, any Shares owned by the Grantee that were previously
subject to this Award and with respect to which the restrictions applicable to
such Shares lapsed during the six-month period immediately prior to such
termination. To the extent the Shares subject to this Section 2(f) have been
previously sold or otherwise disposed of by the Grantee, the Grantee shall repay
to the Company the aggregate fair market value of such Shares on the date of
such sale or disposition; provided, however, that to the extent such Shares have
been previously sold or otherwise disposed of to a Permitted Transferee, the
Grantee, without being relieved of the repayment obligation to be satisfied by
such Permitted Transferees, may cause such repayment obligation to be satisfied
by such Permitted Transferees.
