1. Definitions. Certain terms used in this Restricted Stock Agreement (the
“Agreement”) are defined in Annex A (which is incorporated herein as part of the
Agreement) or elsewhere in the Agreement, and such definitions will apply except
where the context otherwise indicates.

In the Agreement, “PNC” means The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. and
“Corporation” means PNC and its Consolidated Subsidiaries.

2. Grant of Restricted Shares. Pursuant to The PNC Financial Services Group,
Inc. 2006 Incentive Award Plan (the “Plan”), and subject to the terms and
conditions of the Agreement, PNC hereby grants to the Grantee named above
(“Grantee”) a Restricted Shares Award of the number of shares of PNC common
stock set forth above, and, upon acceptance of the Grant by Grantee in
accordance with Section 16, will cause the issuance of said shares to Grantee
subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement and the Plan.

The shares granted and issued to Grantee hereby as a Restricted Shares Award
subject to the restrictions set forth in and the terms and conditions of the
Agreement and the Plan are hereafter referred to as the “Restricted Shares.”

3. Terms of Grant. The Grant is subject to the following terms and conditions.

Restricted Shares will be subject to a Restricted Period as provided in
Section A.26 of Annex A. Once issued in accordance with Section 16, Restricted
Shares will be deposited with PNC or its designee, or credited to a book-entry
account, during the term of the Restricted Period unless and until forfeited
pursuant to the terms of the Agreement.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Any certificate or certificates representing such Restricted Shares will contain
the following legend:

“This certificate and the shares of stock represented hereby are subject to the
terms and conditions (including forfeiture and restrictions against transfer)
contained in The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. 2006 Incentive Award Plan
and an Agreement entered into between the registered owner and The PNC Financial
Services Group, Inc. Release from such terms and conditions will be made only in
accordance with the provisions of such Plan and such Agreement, a copy of each
of which is on file in the office of the Corporate Secretary of The PNC
Financial Services Group, Inc.”

Where a book-entry system is used with respect to the issuance of Restricted
Shares, appropriate notation of such forfeiture possibility and transfer
restrictions will be made on the system with respect to the account or accounts
to which the Restricted Shares are credited.

Restricted Shares deposited with PNC or its designee during the term of the
Restricted Period that become Awarded Shares as provided in Section A.2 of Annex
A will be released and reissued to, or at the proper direction of, Grantee or
Grantee’s legal representative pursuant to Section 9 as soon as administratively
practicable following the end of the Restricted Period.

4. Rights as Shareholder. Except as provided in Section 6 and subject to
Section 16, Grantee will have all the rights and privileges of a shareholder
with respect to the Restricted Shares including, but not limited to, the right
to vote the Restricted Shares and the right to receive dividends thereon if and
when declared by the Board; provided, however, that all such rights and
privileges will cease immediately upon any forfeiture of such shares; provided,
further, that in no case shall there be a forfeiture of dividends for which
there has been a record date prior to the forfeiture of any Restricted Shares,
even if such dividends have not been paid prior to such forfeiture of Restricted
Shares.

5. Capital Adjustments. Restricted Shares awarded hereunder shall, as issued and
outstanding shares of PNC common stock, be subject to such adjustment as may be
necessary to reflect corporate transactions, including, without limitation,
stock dividends, stock splits, spin-offs, split-offs, recapitalizations,
mergers, consolidations or reorganizations of or by PNC; provided, however, that
any shares received as distributions on or in exchange for Unvested Shares shall
be subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement as if they were
Restricted Shares.

6. Prohibitions Against Sale, Assignment, etc.; Payment to Legal Representative.

(a) Unvested Shares may not be sold, assigned, transferred, exchanged, pledged,
hypothecated or otherwise encumbered, other than as may be required pursuant

 

-2-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

to Section 10.2, unless and until the Restricted Period terminates and the
Awarded Shares are released and reissued by PNC pursuant to Section 9.

(b) If Grantee is deceased at the time Restricted Shares become Awarded Shares,
PNC will deliver such shares to the executor or administrator of Grantee’s
estate or to Grantee’s other legal representative as determined in good faith by
the Committee.

(c) Any delivery of shares or other payment made in good faith by PNC to
Grantee’s executor, administrator or other legal representative shall extinguish
all right to payment hereunder.

7. Forfeiture; Qualifying Terminations; Other Terminations.

7.1 Forfeiture on Termination of Employment. Except as otherwise provided in and
subject to the conditions of Section 7.2, Section 7.3, Section 7.4(a),
Section 7.5, or Section 8, if applicable, in the event that Grantee’s employment
with the Corporation terminates prior to the second (2nd) anniversary of the
Grant Date, all Restricted Shares that are Unvested Shares on Grantee’s
Termination Date will be forfeited by Grantee to PNC without payment of any
consideration by PNC.

Upon forfeiture of Unvested Shares pursuant to the provisions of this
Section 7.1 or the provisions of Section 7.4(b), neither Grantee nor any
successors, heirs, assigns or legal representatives of Grantee will thereafter
have any further rights or interest in such Unvested Shares or any certificate
or certificates representing such Unvested Shares.

7.2 Disability Termination; Termination by the Corporation Without Cause;
Termination by Grantee for Good Reason or with PNC’s Consent.

In the event that Grantee’s employment with the Corporation is terminated (other
than by the Corporation for Cause) prior to the second (2nd) anniversary of the
Grant Date and such termination of employment is (i) by reason of Grantee’s
Disability, (ii) by the Corporation without Cause, or (iii) by Grantee for Good
Reason or with the consent of PNC by PNC’s Designated Person, then the Two-Year
Continued Employment Performance Goal will be deemed to have been achieved, and
the Restricted Period with respect to all then outstanding Unvested Shares, if
any, will terminate as of the end of the day immediately preceding Grantee’s
Termination Date.

The Restricted Shares which thereby become Awarded Shares will be released and
reissued by PNC pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of Section 9.

7.3 Death. In the event of Grantee’s death while an employee of the Corporation
and prior to the second (2nd) anniversary of the Grant Date, the Two-Year
Continued Employment Performance Goal will be deemed to have been achieved, and
the Restricted Period with respect to all then outstanding Unvested Shares, if
any, will terminate on the date of Grantee’s death.

 

-3-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Restricted Shares which thereby become Awarded Shares will be released and
reissued by PNC to, or at the proper direction of, Grantee’s legal
representative pursuant to Section 9 as soon as administratively practicable
following such date.

7.4 Qualifying Retirement.

(a) In the event that Grantee Retires prior to the second (2nd) anniversary of
the Grant Date and PNC affirmatively consents to the vesting of Grantee’s
Unvested Shares upon such Retirement, then (i) the Two-Year Continued Employment
Performance Goal will be deemed to have been achieved, and (ii) the Restricted
Period with respect to all then outstanding Unvested Shares, if any, will
terminate as of the end of the day immediately preceding Grantee’s Termination
Date. Restricted Shares that thereby become Awarded Shares will be released and
reissued by PNC pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of Section 9.

The determination as to whether or not PNC shall affirmatively consent to the
vesting of Grantee’s Unvested Shares upon such Retirement shall be made by the
Designated Person specified in Section A.13 of Annex A.

(b) If the Designated Person specifically disapproves the vesting of such
Unvested Shares or if the Designated Person has neither affirmatively approved
nor specifically disapproved the vesting of such Unvested Shares by the time
Grantee Retires, then all such Unvested Shares that are still outstanding on
Grantee’s Termination Date will be forfeited by Grantee to PNC without payment
of any consideration by PNC.

7.5 Other Terminations. In the event that Grantee’s employment with the
Corporation will terminate prior to the second (2nd) anniversary of the Grant
Date, other than a termination by the Corporation for Cause, but none of the
preceding Sections 7.2, 7.3, or 7.4 are applicable to such termination, then the
Committee or its delegate may determine, in their sole discretion, with respect
to some or all of the Unvested Shares outstanding as of the day prior to
Grantee’s Termination Date, that (i) the Two-Year Continued Employment
Performance Goal will be deemed to have been achieved and (ii) the Restricted
Period with respect to such shares will terminate as of the end of the day on
the day immediately preceding Grantee’s Termination Date, in which case such
shares will become Awarded Shares as provided in Section A.2 of Annex A prior to
Grantee’s termination of employment and will be released and reissued by PNC
pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of Section 9.

In the alternative, if Grantee’s employment with the Corporation will terminate
prior to the second (2nd) anniversary of the Grant Date, other than a
termination by the Corporation for Cause, and Grantee’s Unvested Shares, if any,
will be forfeited as of Grantee’s Termination Date pursuant to Section 7.1, the
Committee or its delegate may, in their sole discretion, determine that Grantee
will receive, prior to termination of employment, a grant of a number of Share
Units or Restricted Share Units (“Units”) equal to all or a portion of the
number of Unvested Shares that will be forfeited on

 

-4-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Grantee’s Termination Date, such Units to be granted upon such terms and
conditions as the Committee or its delegate may provide in the written agreement
for such grant; provided, however, that any payment to be made by PNC upon
satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the agreement for such Units will be
made solely in cash.

Upon the determination of the Committee or its delegate in their discretion that
Grantee will be entitled to a grant of Units pursuant to this Section 7.5, such
grant will automatically become effective as of the day immediately prior to
Grantee’s Termination Date, subject to execution by both parties of the Share
Unit or Restricted Share Unit agreement for such grant, as applicable, and
provided that in no event will the number of Units so granted exceed the number
of Unvested Shares that are forfeited by Grantee.

This provision for the grant of Share Units or Restricted Share Units upon such
determination by the Committee or its delegate is considered a feature of the
Grant of the Restricted Shares, and the determination to make such a grant of
Units will be considered an exercise of this feature of the Grant.

8. Change in Control. Notwithstanding anything in the Agreement to the contrary,
upon the occurrence of a Change in Control: (i) if Grantee is an employee of the
Corporation as of the day immediately preceding the Change in Control, the
Two-Year Continued Employment Performance Goal will be deemed to have been
achieved and the Restricted Period will terminate with respect to all then
outstanding Unvested Shares, if any, as of the day immediately preceding the
Change in Control; and (ii) all Restricted Shares that thereby become Awarded
Shares will be released and reissued by PNC pursuant to Section 9 as soon as
administratively practicable following such date.

9. Termination of Prohibitions; Payment to Legal Representative.

Following termination of the Restricted Period, PNC will release and issue or
reissue the then outstanding whole Restricted Shares that have become Awarded
Shares as provided in Section A.2 of Annex A without the legend referred to in
Section 3.

Upon release and issuance of shares that have become Awarded Shares in
accordance with the terms of this Section 9, PNC or its designee will deliver
such whole shares to, or at the proper direction of, Grantee or Grantee’s legal
representative. Any delivery of shares or other payment made in good faith by
PNC to Grantee’s executor, administrator or other legal representative shall
extinguish all right to payment hereunder.

10. Payment of Taxes.

10.1 Internal Revenue Code Section 83(b) Election. In the event that Grantee
makes an Internal Revenue Code Section 83(b) election with respect to the
Restricted Shares, Grantee shall satisfy all then applicable federal, state or
local withholding tax obligations arising from that election (a) by payment of
cash or (b) if and to the extent then permitted by PNC and subject to such terms
and conditions as PNC

 

-5-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

may from time to time establish, by physical delivery to PNC of certificates for
whole shares of PNC common stock that are not subject to any contractual
restriction, pledge or other encumbrance and that have been owned by Grantee for
at least six (6) months and, in the case of restricted stock, for which it has
been at least six (6) months since the restrictions lapsed, or by a combination
of cash and such stock. Any such tax election shall be made pursuant to a form
to be provided to Grantee by PNC on request. For purposes of this Section 10.1,
shares of PNC common stock that are used to satisfy applicable withholding tax
obligations will be valued at their Fair Market Value on the date the tax
withholding obligation arises. Grantee will provide to PNC a copy of any
Internal Revenue Code Section 83(b) election filed by Grantee with respect to
the Restricted Shares not later than ten (10) days after the filing of such
election.

10.2 Other Tax Liabilities. Where Grantee has not previously satisfied all
applicable withholding tax obligations, PNC will, at the time the tax
withholding obligation arises, retain sufficient whole shares of PNC common
stock from the shares granted pursuant to the Agreement to satisfy the minimum
amount of taxes then required to be withheld by the Corporation in connection
with the Restricted Shares. For purposes of this Section 10.2, shares of PNC
common stock retained to satisfy applicable withholding tax requirements will be
valued at their Fair Market Value on the date the tax withholding obligation
arises.

PNC will not retain more than the number of shares sufficient to satisfy the
minimum amount of taxes then required to be withheld in connection with the
Restricted Shares. If Grantee desires to have an additional amount withheld
above the required minimum, up to Grantee’s W-4 obligation if higher, and if PNC
so permits, Grantee may elect to satisfy this additional withholding either:
(a) by payment of cash; or (b) if and to the extent then permitted by PNC and
subject to such terms and conditions as PNC may from time to time establish,
using whole shares of PNC common stock (either by physical delivery to PNC of
certificates for the shares or through PNC’s share attestation procedure) that
are not subject to any contractual restriction, pledge or other encumbrance and
that have been owned by Grantee for at least six (6) months and, in the case of
restricted stock, for which it has been at least six (6) months since the
restrictions lapsed. Any such tax election shall be made pursuant to a form
provided by PNC. Shares of PNC common stock that are used for this purpose will
be valued at their Fair Market Value on the date the tax withholding obligation
arises. If Grantee’s W-4 obligation does not exceed the required minimum
withholding in connection with the Restricted Shares, no additional withholding
may be made.

11. Employment. Neither the granting and issuance of the Restricted Shares nor
any term or provision of the Agreement shall constitute or be evidence of any
understanding, expressed or implied, on the part of PNC or any subsidiary to
employ Grantee for any period or in any way alter Grantee’s status as an
employee at will.

12. Subject to the Plan and the Committee. In all respects the Grant and the
Agreement are subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, which has been
made available to Grantee and is incorporated herein by reference; provided,
however, the

 

-6-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

terms of the Plan shall not be considered an enlargement of any benefits under
the Agreement. Further, the Grant and the Agreement are subject to any
interpretation of, and any rules and regulations issued by, the Committee or its
delegate or under the authority of the Committee, whether made or issued before
or after the Grant Date.

13. Headings; Entire Agreement. Headings used in the Agreement are provided for
reference and convenience only, shall not be considered part of the Agreement,
and shall not be employed in the construction of the Agreement. The Agreement
constitutes the entire agreement between Grantee and PNC and supersedes all
other discussions, negotiations, correspondence, representations, understandings
and agreements between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in the Agreement shall affect the
survival of the Employment Letter Agreement, including the provisions in said
Employment Letter Agreement providing for the survival of certain provisions of
the Amended and Restated Executive Severance Agreement by and among Mercantile
Bankshares Corporation, Mercantile-Safe Deposit & Trust Company and Grantee
effective as of March 29, 2006.

14. Grantee Covenants.

14.1 General. Grantee and PNC acknowledge and agree that Grantee has received
adequate consideration with respect to enforcement of the provisions of
Sections 14 and 15 by virtue of receiving this grant of Restricted Shares
(regardless of whether such shares ultimately become Awarded Shares); that such
provisions are reasonable and properly required for the adequate protection of
the business of PNC and its subsidiaries; and that enforcement of such
provisions will not prevent Grantee from earning a living.

14.2 Non-Solicitation; No-Hire. Grantee agrees to comply with the provisions of
subsections (a) and (b) of this Section 14.2 while employed by the Corporation
and for a period of twelve (12) months after Grantee’s Termination Date
regardless of the reason for such termination of employment.

(a) Non-Solicitation. Grantee shall not, directly or indirectly, either for
Grantee’s own benefit or purpose or for the benefit or purpose of any Person
other than PNC or any of its subsidiaries, solicit or actively interfere with
PNC’s or any subsidiary’s relationship with, or attempt to divert or entice
away, any Person that Grantee should reasonably know (i) is a customer of PNC or
any subsidiary for which PNC or any subsidiary provides any services as of the
Termination Date, or (ii) was a customer of PNC or any subsidiary for which PNC
or any subsidiary provided any services at any time during the twelve
(12) months preceding the Termination Date, or (iii) was, as of the Termination
Date, considering retention of PNC or any subsidiary to provide any services;
provided, however, nothing in the Agreement shall preclude Grantee from
providing services to any company in the financial industry or otherwise, so
long as Grantee does not directly or indirectly solicit or actively interfere
with, or attempt to divert or entice away, any Person identified in this
Section 14.2(a).

 

-7-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(b) No-Hire. Grantee shall not, directly or indirectly, either for Grantee’s own
benefit or purpose or for the benefit or purpose of any Person other than PNC or
any of its subsidiaries, employ or offer to employ, call on, or actively
interfere with PNC’s or any subsidiary’s relationship with, or attempt to divert
or entice away, any employee of PNC or any of its subsidiaries, nor shall
Grantee assist any other Person in such activities; provided, however, nothing
in the Agreement shall preclude Grantee from hiring Grantee’s current
administrative assistant.

Notwithstanding the above, if Grantee’s employment with the Corporation is
terminated by the Corporation without Cause or by Grantee with Good Reason and
such Termination Date occurs during a Coverage Period as defined in Section A.12
of Annex A, then commencing immediately after such Termination Date, the
provisions of subsections (a) and (b) of this Section 14.2 will no longer apply
and will be replaced with the following subsection (c):

(c) No-Hire. Grantee agrees that Grantee shall not, for a period of twelve
(12) months after the Termination Date, employ or offer to employ, solicit,
actively interfere with PNC’s or any PNC affiliate’s relationship with, or
attempt to divert or entice away, any officer of PNC or any PNC affiliate.

14.3 Confidentiality. During Grantee’s employment with the Corporation, and
thereafter regardless of the reason for termination of such employment, Grantee
will not disclose or use in any way any confidential business or technical
information or trade secret acquired in the course of such employment, all of
which is the exclusive and valuable property of the Corporation whether or not
conceived of or prepared by Grantee, other than (a) information generally known
in the Corporation’s industry or acquired from public sources, (b) as required
in the course of employment by the Corporation, (c) as required by any court,
supervisory authority, administrative agency or applicable law, or (d) with the
prior written consent of PNC.

14.4 Ownership of Inventions. Grantee shall promptly and fully disclose to PNC
any and all inventions, discoveries, improvements, ideas or other works of
inventorship or authorship, whether or not patentable, that have been or will be
conceived and/or reduced to practice by Grantee during the term of Grantee’s
employment with the Corporation, whether alone or with others, and that are
(a) related directly or indirectly to the business or activities of PNC or any
of its subsidiaries or (b) developed with the use of any time, material,
facilities or other resources of PNC or any subsidiary (“Developments”). Grantee
agrees to assign and hereby does assign to PNC or its designee all of Grantee’s
right, title and interest, including copyrights and patent rights, in and to all
Developments. Grantee shall perform all actions and execute all instruments that
PNC or any subsidiary shall deem necessary to protect or record PNC’s or its
designee’s interests in the Developments. The obligations of this Section 14.4
shall be performed by Grantee without further compensation and will continue
beyond the Termination Date.

 

-8-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

15. Enforcement Provisions. Grantee understands and agrees to the following
provisions regarding enforcement of the Agreement.

15.1 Governing Law and Jurisdiction. The Agreement is governed by and construed
under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without reference to its
conflict of laws provisions. Any dispute or claim arising out of or relating to
the Agreement or claim of breach hereof shall be brought exclusively in the
federal court for the Western District of Pennsylvania or in the Court of Common
Pleas of Allegheny County, Pennsylvania. By execution of the Agreement, Grantee
and PNC hereby consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts, and waive
any right to challenge jurisdiction or venue in such courts with regard to any
suit, action, or proceeding under or in connection with the Agreement.

15.2 Equitable Remedies. A breach of the provisions of any of Sections 14.2,
14.3 or 14.4 will cause the Corporation irreparable harm, and the Corporation
will therefore be entitled to issuance of immediate, as well as permanent,
injunctive relief restraining Grantee, and each and every person and entity
acting in concert or participating with Grantee, from initiation and/or
continuation of such breach.

15.3 Tolling Period. If it becomes necessary or desirable for the Corporation to
seek compliance with the provisions of Section 14.2 by legal proceedings, the
period during which Grantee shall comply with said provisions will extend for a
period of twelve (12) months from the date the Corporation institutes legal
proceedings for injunctive or other relief.

15.4 No Waiver. Failure of PNC to demand strict compliance with any of the
terms, covenants or conditions of the Agreement will not be deemed a waiver of
such term, covenant or condition, nor will any waiver or relinquishment of any
such term, covenant or condition on any occasion or on multiple occasions be
deemed a waiver or relinquishment of such term, covenant or condition.

15.5 Severability. The restrictions and obligations imposed by Sections 14.2,
14.3 and 14.4 are separate and severable, and it is the intent of Grantee and
PNC that if any restriction or obligation imposed by any of these provisions is
deemed by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void for any reason
whatsoever, the remaining provisions, restrictions and obligations will remain
valid and binding upon Grantee.

15.6 Reform. In the event any of Sections 14.2, 14.3 and 14.4 are determined by
a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable because unreasonable
either as to length of time or area to which said restriction applies, it is the
intent of Grantee and PNC that said court reduce and reform the provisions
thereof so as to apply the greatest limitations considered enforceable by the
court.

15.7 Waiver of Jury Trial. Each of Grantee and PNC hereby waives any right to
trial by jury with regard to any suit, action or proceeding under or in
connection with any of Sections 14.2, 14.3 and 14.4.

 

-9-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

15.8 Applicable Law. Notwithstanding anything in the Agreement, PNC will not be
required to comply with any term, covenant or condition of the Agreement if and
to the extent prohibited by law, including but not limited to federal banking
and securities regulations, or as otherwise directed by one or more regulatory
agencies having jurisdiction over PNC or any of its subsidiaries. Further, to
the extent, if any, applicable to Grantee, Grantee agrees to reimburse PNC for
any amounts Grantee may be required to reimburse PNC or its subsidiaries
pursuant to Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and agrees that PNC
need not comply with any term, covenant or condition of the Agreement to the
extent that doing so would require that Grantee reimburse PNC or its
subsidiaries for such amounts pursuant to Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act
of 2002.

15.9 Compliance with Internal Revenue Code Section 409A. If any provision of the
Agreement contravenes Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code or any
regulations or Treasury guidance promulgated thereunder, PNC shall reform such
provision to maintain to the maximum extent practicable the original intent of
the applicable provision without violating the provisions of Section 409A of the
Internal Revenue Code, and shall take such other actions as may be necessary to
preserve the economic result to Grantee as contemplated under this Agreement,
provided that nothing herein shall limit any rights that Grantee may have to a
Section 409A gross-up under his Employment Letter Agreement.

16. Acceptance of Grant; PNC Right to Cancel. If Grantee does not accept the
Grant by executing and delivering a copy of the Agreement to PNC, without
altering or changing the terms thereof in any way, within thirty (30) days of
receipt by Grantee of a copy of the Agreement, PNC may, in its sole discretion,
withdraw its offer and cancel the Grant at any time prior to Grantee’s delivery
to PNC of a copy of the Agreement executed by Grantee. Otherwise, upon execution
and delivery of the Agreement by both PNC and Grantee and, in the event that
Grantee is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the
Exchange Act with respect to PNC securities, the filing with and acceptance by
the SEC of a Form 4 reporting the Grant, the Agreement is effective.

Grantee will not have any of the rights of a shareholder with respect to the
Restricted Shares as set forth in Section 4, and will not have the right to vote
or to receive dividends on such shares, until the date the Agreement is
effective and the Restricted Shares are issued in accordance with this
Section 16. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Grantee shall have all rights with
respect to the Restricted Shares, other than voting rights, as if the Restricted
Shares were granted on the Grant Date.

In the event that one or more record dates for dividends on PNC common stock
occur after the Grant Date but before the date the Agreement is effective in
accordance with this Section 16 and the Restricted Shares are issued, then upon
the effectiveness of the Agreement, the Corporation will make a cash payment to
Grantee equivalent to the amount of the dividends Grantee would have received
had the Agreement been effective and the Restricted Shares had been issued on
the Grant Date.
