may be issued either in certificated form or in uncertificated, book entry form.
The certificate or book entry account shall bear such restrictive legends or
restrictions as the Company, in its sole discretion, shall require. The Company

The grant of the Restricted Stock Units and issuance of Award Shares upon
settlement of the vested Restricted Stock Units will be subject to all
applicable requirements of federal, state or foreign law with respect to such
securities. No Award Shares may be issued hereunder if the issuance of such

securities laws or other law or regulations or the requirements of any stock
exchange or market system upon which the Common Stock may then be listed. The
inability of the Company to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction
the authority, if any, deemed by the Company’s legal counsel to be necessary to
the lawful issuance of any Award Shares subject to the Restricted Stock Units
shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue
such shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained.
As a condition to the settlement of the vested Restricted Stock Units, the
Company may require you to satisfy any qualifications that may be necessary or
appropriate, to evidence compliance with any applicable law or regulation and to

Shares upon settlement of the vested Restricted Stock Units. Fractional shares

of any exemption from registration under any securities law, rule, or
regulation;

 

(2)

compliance with any requests for representations; and

(k)Dividend Equivalents. As of the date the Company pays any dividend (whether
in cash or in kind) on shares of Common Stock, your Account shall be credited
with that number of Restricted Stock Units, rounded down to the nearest whole
share, determined by dividing (i) the product of (A) the amount of the cash
dividend per share of Common Stock multiplied by (B) the number of whole
Restricted Stock Units credited to the Non-Employee Director’s Account as of the
dividend record date, by (ii) the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock
on the payment date of the dividend; provided, that such dividend equivalent
Restricted Stock Units will only be credited to your Account if sufficient
shares of Common Stock are available for award under the Omnibus Plan, or
another equity compensation plan approved by stockholders of the Company, as of
the dividend payment date to credit such dividend equivalent Restricted Stock
Units. You will not have any right to dividend equivalents or other
distributions declared or paid with respect to unvested and forfeitable
Restricted Stock Units. All dividend equivalents and any other distributions
paid with respect to unvested Restricted Stock Units will be held by the Company
in trust for your benefit and paid to you upon vesting of the Restricted Stock
Units. Upon forfeiture of any Restricted Stock Units, any dividend equivalents
and distributions then held in trust with respect to such Restricted Stock Units

sale or transfer, or purported sale or transfer, shall be null and void. The
Company will not be required to recognize on its books any action taken in
contravention of these restrictions.

3.Legends. The Company may at any time place legends referencing any applicable
federal, state or foreign securities law restrictions on all certificates
representing Award Shares issued pursuant to this Agreement. You will, at the
request of the Company, promptly present to the Company any and all certificates
representing Award Shares acquired pursuant to this Agreement in your possession
in order to carry out the provisions of this Section.

4.Tax Withholding; Payment of Taxes. Since you are not an employee of the
Company or any Affiliate, the Company will not deduct from any compensation or
any other payment of any kind due you, the amount of any federal, state, local
or foreign taxes required to be paid by you as a result of the grant, vesting or
settlement of the Restricted Stock Units or Award Shares, in whole or in part.
You expressly acknowledge that you are solely responsible for the payment of any
such federal, state, local or foreign taxes, and you may not rely on the Company

(a)Stock Dividend, Stock Split and Reverse Stock Split. Upon a stock dividend
of, or stock split or reverse stock split affecting, the Common Stock, the
number of Restricted Stock Units hereunder shall be adjusted as provided under
the Director Plan.  

(b)Other Transactions Affecting the Common Stock. The terms and conditions of
this Agreement will apply with equal force to any additional and/or substitute
rights to receive securities received by you in exchange for, or by virtue of
your ownership of, the Restricted Stock Units, whether as a result of any
spin-off, stock split-up, stock dividend, stock distribution, other
reclassification of the Common Stock of the Company, or other similar event. If
the Restricted Stock Units are converted into or exchanged for, or stockholders
of the Company receive by reason of any distribution in total or partial
liquidation or pursuant to any merger of the Company or acquisition of its
assets, rights to receive securities of another entity, or other property
(including cash), then the rights of the Company under this Agreement will inure
to the benefit of the Company’s successor, and this Agreement will apply to the
rights to receive securities or other property received upon such conversion,
exchange or distribution in the same manner and to the same extent as the
Restricted Stock Units.

6.Non-Guarantee of Service Relationship. Nothing in the Omnibus Plan, the
Director Plan or this Agreement alters your service relationship with the
Company or shall constitute or be evidence of any agreement or understanding,
express or implied, that you will continue as a member of the Board for any
period of time. This Agreement is not to be construed as a contract of service
relationship between the Company and you. This Agreement does not limit in any
way the possibility of your removal from the Board in accordance with the By-Law
provisions in effect at the relevant time, whether or not such removal results
in the forfeiture of any Restricted Stock Units or any other adverse effect on
your interests under the Omnibus Plan or the Director Plan.

7.Rights as Stockholder. You shall not have any of the rights of a stockholder
with respect to any Restricted Stock Units until Award Shares have been issued
to you upon settlement of the vested Restricted Stock Units. No adjustment shall
be made for dividends, distributions or other rights for which the record date
is prior to the date such Award Shares are issued, except as provided in
Sections 1(j) and 5 of this Agreement.  

8.The Company’s Rights. The existence of the Restricted Stock Units does not
affect in any way the right or power of the Company or its stockholders to make
or authorize any or all adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations or other
changes in the Company's capital structure or its business, including that of
its Affiliates, or any merger or consolidation of the Company or any Affiliate,
or any issue of bonds, debentures, preferred or other stocks with preference
ahead of or convertible into, or otherwise affecting the Common Stock or the

9.Entire Agreement. This Agreement, inclusive of the Omnibus Plan and the terms
of the Director Plan incorporated into this Agreement, contains the entire
agreement between you and the Company with respect to the Restricted Stock Units
and the Award Shares. Any and all existing oral or written agreements,
representations, warranties, written inducements, or other communications made
prior to the execution of this Agreement by any person with respect to the
Award, the Restricted Stock Units or the Award Shares are superseded by this
Agreement and are void and ineffective for all purposes.

10.Terminology; Conformity and Conflict. All terms not defined in this Agreement
have the meanings given in, first, the Director Plan, and if not defined in the
Director Plan, second, in the Omnibus Plan. Unless otherwise specifically
provided in this Agreement, in the event of a conflict, inconsistency or
ambiguity between or among any provision, term or condition of this Agreement,
the Omnibus Plan, or the Director Plan, the provisions of, first, the Director
Plan, second, the Omnibus Plan, and lastly, this Agreement, will control in that
order of priority, except in the case of Section 12 of this Agreement which will
control in all cases.

11.Amendment. This Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Committee
in its discretion; provided, however, that this Agreement may not be modified in
a manner that would have a materially adverse effect on the Award as determined
in the discretion of the Committee, except as provided in the Omnibus Plan, the
Director Plan or in any other written document signed by you and the Company.

12.Governing Law. The validity, construction and effect of this Agreement, and
of any determinations or decisions made by the Committee relating to this
Agreement, and the rights of any and all persons having or claiming to have any
interest under this Agreement, will be determined exclusively in accordance with
the laws of the State of Maryland, without regard to its provisions concerning
the applicability of laws of other jurisdictions. Any suit with respect to the
Award, the Restricted Stock Units or the Award Shares will be brought in the
federal or state courts in the districts which include Baltimore, Maryland, and
you agree and submit to the personal jurisdiction and venue thereof.

13.Unfunded Status. The Restricted Stock Units and the Account to which they are
credited constitute and at all times shall be interpreted and administered as an
unfunded compensation arrangement. Your settlement rights pursuant to this
Agreement shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor
of the Company.

14.Severability. If a court of competent jurisdiction (or arbitrator(s), as
applicable) determines that any portion of this Agreement is in violation of any
statute or public policy, then only the portions of this Agreement which violate
such statute or public policy shall be stricken, and all portions of this
Agreement which do not violate any statute or public policy shall continue in
full force and effect. Further, it is the parties' intent that any court order
(or decision of arbitrator(s), as applicable) striking any portion of this
Agreement should modify the terms as narrowly as possible to give as much effect
as possible to the intentions of the parties' under this Agreement.

15.Further Assurances. You agree to use your reasonable and diligent best
efforts to proceed promptly with the transactions contemplated herein, to
fulfill the conditions precedent for your benefit or to cause the same to be
fulfilled and to execute such further documents and other papers and perform
such further acts as may be reasonably required or desirable to carry out the
provisions hereof and the transactions contemplated herein.

16.Headings; Interpretation. Section headings are used in this Agreement for
convenience of reference only and shall not affect the meaning of any provision
of this Agreement. Whenever the context requires, all words under in the
singular shall be construed to include the plural and vice versa. Words of the
masculine gender shall be deemed to include the correlative words of the
feminine gender. The word “you” or “your” means the recipient of the Restricted
Stock Units as reflected in the first paragraph of this Agreement. Whenever the
word “you” or “your” is used in any provision of this Agreement under
circumstances where the provision should logically be construed, as determined
by the Committee, to apply to the estate, personal representative, or
beneficiary to whom the Restricted Stock Units may be transferred by will or by
the laws of descent and distribution, the words “you” and “your” will be deemed
to include such person.

17.Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (including
electronic signatures or facsimile copies), each of which will be deemed an
original, but all of which together will constitute the same instrument.

18Transfer of Personal Data.  You authorize, agree and unambiguously consent to
the transmission by the Company (or any subsidiary) of any personal data
information related to the Award under this Agreement, for legitimate business
purposes (including, without limitation, the administration of the Plan) out of
your home country and including to countries with less data protection than the
data protection provided by your home country. This authorization and consent is
freely given by you.
