    “Vesting
Schedule.  Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the
Participant shall vest in the Restricted Stock as follows, unless previously
vested or canceled in accordance with the provisions of the Plan or this Award

    (a) Time-Based Restricted

    (b) Performance-Based Restricted
Stock.  For each twelve (12)-month period ending December 31,
2009, 2010 and 2011, the Board of Directors will approve an annual return on
equity goal (each, an “Annual
Performance Target”).  Subject to the Company achieving such
Annual Performance Targets, on an average basis over the three (3)-year period
ending December 31, 2011 (the “Performance
Period” and such average attainment the “Total Performance
Target”), the Performance-Based Restricted Stock shall vest pursuant to
the following terms and no longer be subject to cancellation pursuant to Section
4 or the transfer restrictions set forth in Section 7:

the Company achieves or exceeds ninety percent (90%) of the Total Performance
Target, one hundred percent (100%) of the Performance-Based Restricted Stock
shall vest on December 17, 2012 (the “Performance
Vesting Date”).

     

    (ii)           If
the Company achieves over eighty-five percent (85%) but less than ninety percent
(90%) of the Total Performance Target, between fifty percent (50%) and one
hundred percent (100%) of the Performance-Based Restricted Stock (as determined
on the basis of linear interpolation) shall vest on the Performance Vesting
Date.

     

    (iii)           If
the Company achieves eighty-five percent (85%) of the Total Performance Target,
fifty percent (50%) of the Performance-Based Restricted Stock shall vest on the

    (iv)           If
the Company achieves over eighty percent (80%) but less than eighty-five percent
(85%) of the Total Performance Target, between twenty-five percent (25%) and
fifty percent (50%) of the Performance-Based Restricted Stock (as determined on
the basis of linear interpolation) shall vest on the Performance Vesting

    (v)           If
the Company achieves less than eighty percent (80%) of the Total Performance
Target, the Participant forfeits the amount of Performance-Based Restricted
Stock that would have vested on the Performance Vesting Date.

     

    The
applicable Annual Performance Targets shall be established by the Committee in
writing no later than 90 days after the commencement of each applicable year
during the Performance Period for purposes of Section 162(m) the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended and the regulations and guidance promulgated

as modified herein, the 2008 Award Agreement shall remain in full force and
effect.

undersigned have executed this Amendment Agreement effective as of the date set
