Delaware corporation (the “Company”).

 

WHEREAS, on October 3, 2011 the Company granted Restricted Stock Units (as
defined in the RSU Agreement (as defined below)) to the Employee under the
Company’s Amended and Restated 2005 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Incentive
Plan”) and a Restricted Stock Units Agreement (the “RSU Agreement”);

 

WHEREAS, the Employee and the Company have entered into that certain Employment
Agreement entered into as of November 5, 2012, (the “Employment Agreement”) and
the Employee has been appointed a participant to the Company’s Change of Control
Policy for Executive Officers;

 

WHEREAS, Section 3.4.3 of the Employment Agreement provides for certain
amendments to the Restricted Stock Units; and

 

WHEREAS, the Company and the Employee desire to modify the terms of the
Restricted Stock Units by amending the RSU Agreement;

 

NOW THEREFORE, the Company hereby amends the RSU Agreement as follows:

 

1.             Section 3.2 shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with
the following:

 

“3.2        Vesting at Termination.  Upon termination of employment with the
Employer for any reason the unvested portion of the Restricted Stock Units shall
be forfeited without any consideration; provided, however, that,

 

(i)            upon termination of employment by the Employer without Employer’s
Good Cause, by the Participant with Participant’s Good Cause, or due to the
Participant’s death or Disability, subject to the satisfaction of the
Performance Criteria, the Restricted Stock Units that would have become vested
(but for such termination) under the schedule determined in Section 3.1 herein
during the twenty-four (24) months from the date of termination of employment
shall be paid on the same schedule determined in Section 3.1 herein; provided,
however that such continued vesting shall immediately cease and unvested
Restricted Stock Units shall be forfeited in the event the Participant
materially breaches any post-termination covenant with the Company or its
affiliate in an employment agreement (after taking into account any applicable
cure period); and

 

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

 

(ii)           upon termination of employment due to the Participant’s death or
Disability, in each case, within twelve (12) months following a Change of
Control, subject to the satisfaction of the Performance Criteria, the Restricted
Stock Units that would have become vested (but for such termination) under the
schedule determined in Section 3.1 herein during the twenty-four (24) months
after the date of termination of the Participant’s employment shall become
immediately vested and shall be paid within thirty (30) days thereafter; and

 

(iii)          upon termination of employment by the Employer without Employer’s
Good Cause or by the Participant with Participant’s Good Cause, in each case,
within twelve (12) months following a Change of Control, subject to the
satisfaction of the Performance Criteria, any then unvested Restricted Stock
Units shall become immediately vested and shall be paid within thirty (30) days
thereafter; and

 

(iv)          upon termination of employment by the Employer without Employer’s
Good Cause or by the Participant with Participant’s Good Cause, in each case,
within six (6) months prior to a Change of Control, subject to the satisfaction
of the Performance Criteria, the Restricted Stock Units that would have become
vested (but for such termination) under the schedule determined in Section 3.1
herein shall be paid on the same schedule determined in Section 3.1 herein.”

 

2.             Except as specifically amended hereby, the RSU Agreement shall
remain in full force and effect as originally executed.

 

3.             This Amendment may be signed in counterparts, each of which shall
be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto
were upon the same instrument.
