     (c) Lapse of Restrictions. [Vesting provisions to be determined at the time
of grant.]
     (d) Timing and Manner of Payment of Restricted Stock Units.
     [As soon as practicable after the date any Restricted Stock Units subject
to the Award become non-forfeitable (the “Payment Date”), such Restricted Stock
Units shall be paid in a lump sum cash payment equal in the aggregate to the
Fair Market Value of a Share on the Payment Date multiplied by the number of
such Restricted Stock Units that become non-forfeitable upon that Payment Date.
Neither the Grantee nor any of the Grantee’s successors, heirs, assigns or
personal representatives shall have any further rights or interests in any
Restricted Stock Units that are so paid.]
     [As soon as practicable after the date any Restricted Stock Units subject
to the Award become non-forfeitable (the “Payment Date”), such Restricted Stock
Units shall be paid by the Company delivering to the Grantee, a number of Shares
equal to the number of Restricted Stock Units that become non-forfeitable upon
that Payment Date. The Company shall issue the Shares either (i) in certificate
form or (ii) in book entry form, registered in the name of the Grantee. Delivery
of any certificates will be made to the Grantee’s last address reflected on the
books of the Company and its Subsidiaries unless the Company is otherwise
instructed in writing. Neither the Grantee nor any of the Grantee’s successors,
heirs, assigns or personal representatives shall have any further rights or
interests in any Restricted Stock Units that are so paid. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Company shall have no obligation to issue Shares in payment of
the Restricted Stock Units unless such issuance and such payment shall comply
with all relevant provisions of law and the requirements of any Stock Exchange.]
     [As soon as practicable after the date any Restricted Stock Units subject
to the Award become non-forfeitable (the “Payment Date”), such Restricted Stock
Units shall be paid, at the Company’s option, (i) in a lump sum cash payment
equal in the aggregate to the Fair Market Value of a Share on the Payment Date
multiplied by the number of such Restricted Stock Units that become
non-forfeitable upon that Payment Date or (ii) by the Company delivering to the
Grantee a number of Shares equal to the number of Restricted Stock Units that
become non-forfeitable upon that Payment Date. If the Restricted Stock Units are
paid in Shares, the Company shall issue the Shares either (i) in certificate
form or (ii) in book entry form, registered in the name of the Grantee. Delivery
of any certificates will be made to the Grantee’s last address reflected on the
books of the Company and its Subsidiaries unless the Company is otherwise
instructed in writing. Neither the Grantee nor any of the Grantee’s successors,
heirs, assigns or personal representatives shall have any further rights or
interests in any Restricted Stock Units that are so paid. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall have no obligation to issue
Shares in payment of the Restricted Stock Units unless such issuance and such
payment shall comply with all relevant provisions of law and the requirements of
any Stock Exchange.]
     (e) Termination of Employment. In the event of the termination of Grantee’s
employment or service with the Company, Parent or any Subsidiary for any reason
prior to the lapsing of the restrictions in accordance with Section 2(c) hereof
with respect to any of the Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder , such
portion of the Restricted Stock Units held by Grantee shall be automatically
forfeited by the Grantee as of the date of termination. Neither the Grantee nor
any of the Grantee’s successors, heirs, assigns or personal representatives
shall have any rights or interests in any Restricted Stock Units that are so
forfeited.

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

 

     (f) Corporate Transactions. The following provisions shall apply to the
corporate transactions described below:
     (i) In the event of a proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company,
the Award will terminate and be forfeited immediately prior to the consummation
of such proposed transaction, unless otherwise provided by the Administrator.
     (ii) In the event of a proposed sale of all or substantially all of the
assets of the Company, or the merger of the Company with or into another
corporation, the Award shall be assumed or substituted with an equivalent award
by such successor corporation, parent or subsidiary of such successor
corporation; provided that the Administrator may determine, in the exercise of
its sole discretion in connection with a transaction that constitutes a
permissible distribution event under Section 409A(a)(2)(v) of the Code, that in
lieu of such assumption or substitution, the Award shall be vested and
non-forfeitable and any conditions or restrictions on the Award shall lapse, as
to all or any part of the Award, including Restricted Stock Units as to which
the Award would not otherwise be non-forfeitable.
     (g) Income Taxes. Except as provided in the next sentence, the Company
shall withhold and/or reacquire a number of Shares issued in payment of (or
otherwise issuable in payment of, as the case may be) the Restricted Stock Units
having a Fair Market Value equal to the taxes that the Company determines it or
the Employer is required to withhold under applicable tax laws with respect to
the Restricted Stock Units (with such withholding obligation determined based on
any applicable minimum statutory withholding rates). In the event the Company
cannot (under applicable legal, regulatory, listing or other requirements, or
otherwise) satisfy such tax withholding obligation in such method or in the
event that the Restricted Stock Units are paid in cash (as opposed to Shares),
the Company may satisfy such withholding by any one or combination of the
following methods: (i) by requiring the Grantee to pay such amount in cash or
check; (ii) by reducing the amount of any cash otherwise payable to Grantee with
respect to the Restricted Stock Units; (iii) by deducting such amount out of any
other compensation otherwise payable to the Grantee; and/or (iv) by allowing the
Grantee to surrender shares of Common Stock of the Company which (a) in the case
of shares initially acquired from the Company (upon exercise of a stock option
or otherwise), have been owned by the Grantee for such period (if any) as may be
required to avoid a charge to the Company’s earnings, and (b) have a Fair Market
Value on the date of surrender equal to the amount required to be withheld;. For
these purposes, the Fair Market Value of the Shares to be withheld or
repurchased, as applicable, shall be determined on the date that the amount of
tax to be withheld is to be determined.
Section 3. Miscellaneous
     (a) Notices. Any and all notices, designations, consents, offers,
acceptances and any other communications provided for herein shall be given in
writing and shall be delivered either personally or by registered or certified
mail, postage prepaid, which shall be addressed, in the case of the Company to
both the Chief Financial Officer and the General Counsel of the Company at the
principal office of the Company and, in the case of the Grantee, to the
Grantee’s address appearing on the books of the Company or to the Grantee’s
residence or to such other address as may be designated in writing by the
Grantee.
