On each applicable Service-Based Vesting Date, the Company shall settle the portion of the Award that is vested on such date and shall therefore (i) issue and deliver to the Participant one share of Common Stock for each Restricted Share Unit subject to the Award (the RSU Shares), with any fractional shares paid out in cash (and, upon such settlement, the Restricted Share Units shall cease to be credited to the Account) and (ii) enter the Participants name as a stockholder of record with respect to the RSU Shares on the books of the Company.  (b)           Restrictions.  The Award granted hereunder may not be sold, pledged or otherwise transferred (other than by will or the laws of decent and distribution) and may not be subject to lien, garnishment, attachment or other legal process.  The Participant acknowledges and agrees that, with respect to each Restricted Share Unit credited to his Account, he has no voting rights with respect to the Company unless and until each such Restricted Share Unit is settled in RSU Shares pursuant to Section 3(a) hereof.  (c)           Effect of Termination of Employment.  (i)            Except as provided in subsections (ii) and (iii) of this Section 3(c), if the Participants employment with the Company terminates prior to the vesting of the Award, in whole or in part, any unvested Restricted Share Units shall be forfeited without consideration to the Participant.  (ii)           Upon the termination of the Participants employment with the Company due to his death or by the Company due to his Disability, any and all unvested Restricted Share Units shall vest and be settled in shares of Common Stock as soon as reasonably practicable following the date of termination.  (iii)          Upon the termination of the Participants employment for Retirement (as defined below), any and all unvested Restricted Share Units shall vest on the applicable dates on which they would otherwise have vested in accordance with Section 3(a) had the Participants employment not so terminated, and such Restricted Share Units shall be settled in shares of Common Stock as soon as reasonably practicable (but in no event later than 30 days) following each such applicable date.  For purposes of this Agreement, Retirement shall mean the voluntary termination of a Participants employment by the Company after the Participant is fifty-five (55) years of age and has at least ten (10) years of service with the Company.  (d)           Dividends.  If on any date dividends are paid on shares of Common Stock (Shares) underlying the Award (the Dividend Payment Date), then the number of Restricted Share Units credited to the Account shall, as of the Dividend Payment Date, be increased by that number of Restricted Share Units equal to: (a) the product of (i) the  2


number of Restricted Share Units in the Account as of the Dividend Payment Date and (ii) the per Share cash amount of such dividend (or, in the case of a dividend payable in Shares or other property, the per Share equivalent cash value of such dividend as determined in good faith by the Committee) divided by (b) the Fair Market Value of a Share on the Dividend Payment Date.  Such additional Restricted Share Units shall also be subject to the restrictions in Section 3(b) and the other terms and conditions of this Agreement.  (e)           Taxes and Withholding.  Upon the settlement of the Award in accordance with Section 3(a) hereof, the Participant shall recognize taxable income in respect of the Award and the Company shall report such taxable income to the appropriate taxing authorities in respect of the Award as it determines to be necessary and appropriate.  Upon the settlement of the Award in RSU Shares, the Participant shall be required as a condition of such settlement to pay to the Company by check or wire transfer the amount of any income, payroll, or social tax withholding that the Company determines is required; provided that the Participant may elect to satisfy such tax withholding obligation by having the Company withhold from the settlement that number of RSU Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount of such withholding; provided, further, that the number of RSU Shares that may be so withheld by the Company shall be limited to that number of RSU Shares having an aggregate Fair Market Value on the date of such withholding equal to the aggregate amount of the Participants income, payroll and social tax liabilities based upon the applicable minimum withholding rates.  (f)            Rights as a Stockholder.  Upon and following each Service-Based Vesting Date, the Participant shall be the record owner of the RSU Shares settled upon such applicable date unless and until such shares are sold or otherwise disposed of, and as record owner shall be entitled to all rights of a common stockholder of the Company, including, without limitation, voting rights, if any, with respect to the shares.
