    4  Termination
      of
      Service.
      (a)  If the
      Grantee does not continue
      to provide service to the
      Company through the Vesting Date set forth in Section
      3, all shares of Restricted
      Stock not
      vested as of the date Grantee ceases to provide service
      to the Company will be
      forfeited (the “Forfeited
      Shares”), the Grantee shall not have any rights to any of the Forfeited Shares
      and any stock certificates then held by the Grantee representing the Forfeited
      Shares shall be cancelled and voided.  Notwithstanding the foregoing,
      in the event the
Grantee's
service
      to the Company is terminated due to
      death or
      Disability, all shares of Restricted Stock held by the Grantee
      at the time of such death or termination
      of service due to such
      Disability shall
      immediately become 

     

    
      
         

      

      
        1

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    vested
      and released from restriction as
      of such date.

     

    (b)           In
      the event the Grantee’s service with the Company shall terminate (other than on
      account of death or Disability) prior to the end of the Restricted Period,
      or
      any other event causing the forfeiture of the Restricted Stock prior to a
      Vesting Date, the Grantee shall be obligated immediately to redeliver to the
      Company any stock certificates representing the Forfeited Shares. No payment
      by
      the Company will be due to the Grantee for the Forfeited Shares.

     

    5  Certificate
      Legend.  The share certificate evidencing the Restricted Stock
      issued hereunder shall be endorsed with the following legend or a legend
      substantively similar thereto:

     

    THE
      RESTRICTED SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR
      INVESTMENT AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THE SALE OR
      DISTRIBUTION THEREOF.  NO SUCH SALE OR DISPOSITION MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT
      AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATED THERETO OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL
      SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE
      SECURITIES ACT OF 1933.

     

    THE
      RESTRICTED SHARES REPRESENTED HEREBY ARE SUBJECT TO A RESTRICTION ON TRANSFER
      PURSUANT TO THE PROVISIONS OF AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND THE HOLDER
      OF
      SUCH RESTRICTED SHARES, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, ASSIGNED, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED,
      HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE TERMS OF
      SUCH AGREEMENT.

     

     

    6  Removal
      of Certificate Legend.  After the completion of the Restricted
      Period, the Grantee shall be entitled to have the legend required by
      Section 5 of this Agreement removed from the applicable stock certificates
      for the shares of Restricted Stock that have not been forfeited; provided,
      however, that the first paragraph of such certificate legend shall not be
      removed unless the shares are in fact registered under the Securities Act or
      the
      Company is satisfied that registration is not required thereunder, in its sole
      discretion.

     

    7  Non−Transferability
      of Restricted Stock. The Restricted Stock shall not be sold, assigned,
      transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of during the
      Restricted Period.

     

    8  No
      Special Rights. The granting of the Restricted Stock shall not be construed
      to confer upon the Grantee any right with respect to the continuation of his
      or
      her service with the Company (or any subsidiary of the Company) or interfere
      in
      any way with the right of the Company (or any subsidiary of the Company),
      subject to the terms of any separate agreement to the contrary, at any time
      to
      terminate such service or to increase or decrease the compensation of the
      Grantee from the rate in existence as of the date hereof.

     

    9  Tax
      Consequences.  (a)  All tax consequences under any
      Applicable Law which may arise from the grant of the Restricted Stock, the
      sale
      or disposition of any shares granted 

     

    
      
         

      

      
        2

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    hereunder
      or from any other action of the Grantee in connection with the foregoing shall
      be borne and paid solely by the Grantee, and the Grantee shall indemnify the
      Company, and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates, and shall hold them harmless
      against and from any liability for any such tax or penalty, interest or
      indexation thereon. The Grantee agrees to, and undertakes to comply with, any
      ruling, settlement, closing agreement or other similar agreement or arrangement
      with any tax authority in connection with the foregoing which is approved by
      the
      Company.  The Grantee is advised to consult with a tax advisor with
      respect to the tax consequences of receiving the Restricted Stock. The Company
      does not assume any responsibility to advise the Grantee on such matters, which
      shall remain solely the responsibility of the Grantee.

     

    (b)           The
      Grantee may elect to be immediately taxed on the Restricted Stock for
      United States Federal tax purposes under Section 83(b) of the Code. The
      Grantee shall notify the Company of his or her election within thirty
      (30) days of the date hereof.

     

    (c)           The
      Grantee shall notify the Company in writing promptly and in any event within
      ten
      (10) days after the date on which the Grantee first obtains knowledge of any
      tax
      bureau inquiry, audit, assertion, determination, investigation, or question
      relating in any manner to the Restricted Stock granted or received hereunder
      and
      shall continuously inform the Company of any developments, proceedings,
      discussions and negotiations relating to such matter, and shall allow the
      Company and its representatives to participate in any proceedings and
      discussions concerning such matters.  Upon request, the Grantee shall
      provide to the Company any information or document relating to any matter
      described in the preceding sentence, which the Company, in its discretion,
      requires.

     

    (d)           To
      the extent a 102 Restricted Stock Award is designated above, you declare and
      acknowledge: (i) that you fully understand that Section 102 of the Israeli
      Income Tax Ordinance and the rules and regulations enacted thereunder apply
      to
      the Restricted Stock specified in this Agreement and to you; and (ii) that
      you
      understand the provisions of Section 102, the tax track chosen and the
      implications thereof. With respect to Restricted Stock granted under Section
      102, the terms of such Restricted Stock shall also be subject to the terms
      of
      the Trust Agreement made between the Company and the Trustee for the benefit
      of
      the Grantee, as well as the requirements of the Israeli Income Tax Commissioner.
      The grant of Restricted Stock hereunder is further conditioned upon the Grantee
      signing all documents requested by the Company or the Trustee, in accordance
      with and under the Trust Agreement. A copy of the Trust Agreement is available
      for the Grantee’s review, during normal working hours, at the Company’s
      offices.

     

    10  Investment
      Representations.  In connection with the receipt of the Restricted
      Stock, the Grantee represents to the Company the following:

     

    (a) 
      The Grantee is receiving these securities for investment for his or her own
      account only and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any
      “distribution” thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act.

     

    (b) 
      The Grantee understands that the securities have not been registered under
      the
      Securities Act.

     

    
      
         

      

      
        3

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    (c) 
      The Grantee further acknowledges and understands that the securities must be
      held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities
      Act or an exemption from such registration is available.  The Grantee
      further acknowledges and understands that the Company is under no obligation
      to
      register the securities.  The Grantee understands that the certificate
      evidencing the securities will be imprinted with a legend which prohibits the
      transfer of the securities unless they are registered or such registration
      is
      not required in the opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company.

      to
      such Restricted Stock and the right to vote such Restricted Stock, subject
      to
      any restrictions in this Agreement or in the Plan.

     

    12  Amendment.
      Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, the Committee may amend this
      Agreement with the consent of the Grantee when and subject to such conditions
      as

      the
      purposes of the Plan.
