 AND NONSTATUTORY STOCK OPTION PLAN 
 FORM B 
 RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT 
 This Restricted Stock Unit Agreement (“Agreement”) dated as of                     ,
20     (the “Date of Grant”) is entered into by and between Embrex, Inc., a North Carolina corporation (the “Company”), and
                                        
(the “Grantee”). 
 Unless otherwise expressly defined herein, the terms used in this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement shall have
the same meanings set forth in the Embrex, Inc. Amended and Restated Incentive Stock Option and Nonstatutory Stock Option Plan, as amended from time to time (the “Plan”). 
 1. Grant of RSUs. Subject to this Agreement and the Plan, the terms of which are incorporated herein by this reference, the Company hereby grants
to Grantee, and Grantee hereby accepts, restricted stock units (“RSUs”) as set forth herein. Each RSU granted hereby entitles the Grantee to receive one share of common stock of the Company, $.01 par value per share (the “Common
Stock”), as follows: 
  

							
	                        Grant Number	  	  
	  		  	
				
	                        Number of RSUs	  	  
	  		  	

 2. Vesting. Subject to acceleration pursuant to Section 5 below, Grantee shall vest in
the RSUs granted under this Agreement pursuant to the combination of time-based and performance-based vesting requirements set forth in subsections (a) and (b) of this Section 2: 
 (a) Time-Based Vesting. One-third (1/3) of the total RSUs granted under this Agreement are subject to the time-based vesting requirements set
forth in this subsection (a). RSUs subject to time-based vesting shall vest in three equal, annual installments such that one third (1/3) of the RSUs subject to time-based vesting (i.e., one ninth (1/9) of the total RSUs granted under this
Agreement) shall vest on each of March 13, 2008; March 13, 2009; and March 13, 2010 as set forth in the vesting schedule below, provided that Grantee does not incur a Separation from Service with the Company (or any Parent,
Subsidiary or successor of the Company) prior to the applicable vesting dates: 
  

					
	 Fraction of RSUs Subject to Time-Based
Vesting
That Vest on Vesting Date
	 	 Fraction of Total RSUs Granted Under this
Agreement That Vest on
Vesting Date
	 	 Vesting Date

	 One-Third (1/3)
	 	One-Ninth (1/9)	 	March 13, 2008
	 One-Third (1/3)
	 	One-Ninth (1/9)	 	March 13, 2009
	 One-Third (1/3)
	 	One-Ninth (1/9)	 	March 13, 2010








 (b) Performance-Based Vesting. The remaining two-thirds (2/3) of the total RSUs granted under
this Agreement are subject to the performance-based vesting requirements set forth in this subsection (b). The vesting of performance-based RSUs will be determined based on the Company’s long-term performance as measured by the Company’s
Cumulative Adjusted EPS for the years 2006 – 2009. As soon as administratively practicable following the public release of the Company’s 2009 fourth quarter earnings, the Committee, in the Committee’s sole discretion, shall calculate
the Company’s Cumulative Adjusted EPS for the years 2006 – 2009 and, provided Grantee has not incurred a Separation from Service prior to such time, Grantee shall automatically vest in that number of RSUs corresponding to the applicable
Cumulative Adjusted EPS, as listed in the Awards Table for Performance-Based Vesting attached as Exhibit A to this Agreement. Except to the extent provided in Section 5, if Grantee Separates from Service with the Company (or any Parent,
Subsidiary, or successor of the Company) for any reason prior to the public release of the Company’s earnings for the fourth quarter of 2009, Grantee shall forfeit any and all rights in the RSUs subject to performance-based vesting under this
subsection. For the avoidance of doubt and for illustrative purposes only, a Grantee who does not incur a Separation from Service prior to the Company’s release of its 2009 fourth quarter earnings may be entitled to performance-based vesting in
as little as zero percent (0%) or as much as one hundred percent (100%) of the RSUs subject to performance-based vesting depending upon the Company’s overall performance for the performance period. 
 3. Delivery of Shares. 
 (a)
General. The RSUs shall automatically be converted into shares of Common Stock as they vest (or upon such later date elected pursuant to Section 4 below). Certificates representing such shares shall be delivered to the Grantee as soon as
practicable thereafter, in written or electronic form as the Committee may determine. 
 (b) Legal Restrictions. No shares shall be
delivered unless such delivery complies with the applicable registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, any applicable listing requirement of any national securities exchange on which stock of the same class is then listed,
and any other requirements of federal, state or local law or of any regulatory bodies having jurisdiction over such issuance and exercise. Assuming such compliance, for tax purposes shares shall be considered issued to the Grantee on the date of
vesting or the deferred date of delivery, as applicable. 
 4. Deferral Election Agreement. The Grantee may elect to defer the date
the RSUs are converted into shares of Common Stock and such shares are delivered by completing and submitting to the Company a deferral election in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B at the time the Grantee enters into this Agreement. The
Committee shall, in its sole discretion, establish the further rules and procedures for such deferral elections. 
 5. Acceleration of
Vesting. In the event of the occurrence of any event described in Section 18 of the Plan which also constitutes a change in the ownership or effective control of the Company or a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the
assets of the Company pursuant to Code Section 409A and the regulations promulgated thereunder (such event herein referred to as a “Transfer of Control”), the following provisions shall apply: 
  

 2 








 (a) Acceleration of Vesting. Any RSUs subject to time-based vesting under Section 2(a) hereof
not vested at the time of such Transfer of Control event shall become fully vested and nonforfeitable and fifty percent (50%) of Grantee’s RSUs subject to performance-based vesting under Section 2(b) hereof shall become fully vested
and nonforfeitable. Any RSUs for which vesting is not accelerated in connection with a Transfer of Control pursuant to this Section 5 shall be immediately forfeited by the Grantee. 
 (b) Delay of Acceleration / Delivery if Required to Comply with Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this
Section 5, if the Committee, in the Committee’s sole discretion, determines that Grantee is a Key Employee at the time such accelerated vesting would occur and that the accelerated vesting and/or delivery of RSUs, if any, provided for
under this Section 5 are subject to the six-month delay restrictions imposed by Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) and the regulations promulgated thereunder, then such accelerated vesting and/or delivery, if any, of RSUs shall be delayed until
six months and one day following Grantee’s Separation from Service as the Committee deems appropriate. 
 6. Nature of Grant. By
signing this Agreement, the Grantee acknowledges that: 
 (a) The Company has established the Plan voluntarily, it is discretionary in nature
and the Company may modify, amend, suspend or terminate it at any time, unless otherwise provided in the Plan and this Agreement; 
 (b) The
grant of the RSUs is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of RSUs, or benefits in lieu of RSUs, even if RSUs have been granted repeatedly in the past; 
 (c) All decisions with respect to future grants of RSUs, if any, shall be at the sole discretion of the Company; 
 (d) The Grantee’s participation in the Plan does not create an employment or service right or a right to further employment or service with the
Grantee’s employer (the “Employer”) and shall not interfere with the ability of the Employer to terminate the Grantee’s service relationship at any time, with or without cause; 
 (e) The Grantee is voluntarily participating in the Plan; 
 (f) The RSUs are an extraordinary item that is outside the scope of the Grantee’s employment or service contract, if any, and that does not constitute compensation of any kind for services of any kind rendered to
the Company or the Employer; 
 (g) The RSUs are not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purposes, including, but not
limited to, calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement benefits or similar payments; 
 (h) The grant, vesting, and/or delivery of the RSUs under this Agreement does not constitute an employment contract or relationship or service contract
or right between Grantee and the Company (or any Parent, Subsidiary, or successor of the Company); 
  

 3 








 (i) The future value of the underlying shares is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty;

 (j) If shares are delivered on vesting of the RSUs, or if the Grantee elects to defer delivery of the shares, the shares in either case
may increase or decrease in value, even below their value on the date of grant or the date(s) of vesting; 
 (k) In consideration of the
grant of the RSUs, no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from termination of the RSUs or diminution in value of the RSUs or shares purchased through exercise of the RSUs, if any, resulting from Grantee’s Separation from
Service by the Company or the Employer (for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of local labor laws), and the Grantee irrevocably releases the Company and the Employer from any such claim that may arise; if, notwithstanding the
foregoing, any such claim is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen, then, by signing this Agreement, the Grantee shall be deemed irrevocably to have waived his or her entitlement to pursue such claim; and 
 (l) Notwithstanding any terms or conditions of the Plan to the contrary, in the event of Grantee’s Separation from Service (whether or not in breach
of local labor laws), the Grantee’s right to vest in and/or receive the RSUs under the Plan, if any, will terminate effective as of the date of such Separation from Service (or the 409A Delay Period, if applicable) and will not be extended by
any notice period mandated under local law (e.g., active employment or service would not include a period of “garden leave” or similar period pursuant to local law) and the Committee shall have the exclusive discretion to determine
whether the Grantee’s status as a service provider has terminated for purposes of this Agreement. 
 7. Restrictions on Transfer.
Until the shares of Common Stock subject to the RSUs have been delivered, neither the RSUs nor the shares or any beneficial interest therein may be transferred, encumbered or otherwise alienated at any time. Any attempt to do so contrary to the
provisions hereof shall be null and void. 
 8. Rights as a Shareholder. The Grantee shall not have voting or any other rights as a
shareholder with respect to the RSUs prior to the settlement of the RSUs and delivery of the underlying shares of Common Stock. 
 9.
Responsibility of U.S. Grantees for Taxes. If the Grantee is subject to taxation under the laws of the U.S., the Grantee shall be required to deposit with the Company an amount of cash equal to the amount determined by the Company to be
required with respect to any withholding taxes, FICA contributions, or the like under any federal, state, or local tax or other statute, ordinance, rule or regulation in connection with the award, deferral, or settlement of the RSUs. Alternatively,
the Company may, in its sole discretion, withhold the required amounts from the Employee’s pay during the pay periods next following the date on which any applicable tax liability arises. The Committee, in its discretion, may permit the
Grantee, subject to such 

  

 4 








 
conditions as the Committee shall require, to elect to have the Company withhold a number of shares of Common Stock otherwise deliverable having a fair
market value sufficient to satisfy the statutory minimum of all or part of the Grantee’s estimated total federal, state, and local tax obligations associated with the vesting or settlement of the restricted stock units. The Company shall not
deliver any of the shares of Common Stock until and unless the Grantee has made the deposit required herein or proper provision for required withholding has been made. 
 10. Responsibility of United Kingdom Grantees for Taxes. If the Grantee is subject to taxation under the laws of the United Kingdom: 
 (a) Regardless of any action the Company or the Employer takes with respect to any or all income tax, primary and secondary Class 1 National Insurance contributions, payroll tax, or other tax-related withholding
(“Tax-Related Items”), the Grantee acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by the Grantee is and remains his or her responsibility and that the Company and/or the Employer (1) make no
representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the RSUs, including the grant, vesting, settlement or cancellation of the RSUs, the subsequent sale of shares acquired pursuant to the
RSUs and the receipt of any dividends; and (2) do not commit to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the RSUs to reduce or eliminate the Grantee’s liability for Tax-Related Items. 
 (b) As a condition of settlement of the RSUs, the Grantee agrees to pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to
satisfy all withholding obligations of the Company and/or the Employer by the Due Date, which is 90 days, or such other period as required under U.K. law, after the grant, vesting, deferral, settlement or cancellation of the RSUs (the
“Chargeable Event”). In this regard, the Grantee authorizes the Company and/or the Employer to withhold all applicable Tax-Related Items legally payable by the Grantee from his or her wages or other cash compensation paid to the Grantee by
the Company and/or the Employer or from proceeds of the sale of the Shares. Alternatively, or in addition, if permissible under local law, the Company may sell or arrange for the sale of Shares that the Grantee acquires to meet the withholding
obligation for Tax-Related Items. The Grantee shall pay to the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold with respect to the Chargeable Event that cannot be satisfied by the
means previously described. If payment or withholding is not made by the Due Date, the Grantee agrees that the amount of any uncollected Tax-Related Items shall constitute a loan owed by the Grantee to the Employer, effective on the Due Date. The
Grantee agrees that the loan will bear interest at the then-current Inland Revenue Official Rate and it will be immediately due and repayable, and the Company and/or the Employer may recover it at any time thereafter by any of the means referred to
above. If any of the foregoing methods of collection are not allowed under applicable law or if the Grantee fails to comply with his or her obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items as described in this Section, the Company may refuse to
deliver the Shares underlying the RSUs. 
  

 5 








 11. Data Privacy. 
 (a) The Grantee hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of his or her
personal data as described in this Agreement by and among, as applicable, the Employer, the Company and any Parent or Subsidiary for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Grantee’s participation in the
Plan. 
 (b) The Grantee understands that the Company and the Employer may hold certain personal information about him or her,
including, but not limited to, the Grantee’s name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any directorships held in the Company, details of all
RSUs or any other entitlement to shares awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in the Grantee’s favor, for the purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Plan (“Data”). The Grantee understands that
Data may be transferred to any third parties assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan, that these recipients may be located in the Grantee’s country or elsewhere, and that the recipient’s country may have
different data privacy laws and protections than the Grantee’s country. The Grantee understands that he or she may request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Data by contacting his or her local human
resources representative. The Grantee authorizes the recipients to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the purposes of implementing, administering and managing his or her participation in the Plan,
including any requisite transfer of such Data as may be required to a broker or other third party with whom the Grantee may elect to deposit any shares acquired upon settlement of the RSUs. The Grantee understands that Data will be held only as long
as is necessary to implement, administer and manage his or her participation in the Plan. The Grantee understands that he or she may, at any time, view Data, request additional information about the storage and processing of Data, require any
necessary amendments to Data or refuse or withdraw the consents herein, in any case without cost, by contacting in writing his or her local human resources representative. The Grantee understands, however, that refusing or withdrawing his or her
consent may affect the Grantee’s ability to participate in the Plan. For more information on the consequences of the Grantee’s refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, the Grantee understands that he or she may contact his or her local
human resources representative. 
 12. Electronic Delivery. The Company may, in its sole discretion, deliver any documents
related to the RSUs granted under the Plan, the Grantee’s participation in the Plan, and future RSUs that may be granted under the Plan by electronic means or may request the Grantee’s consent to participate in the Plan by electronic
means. The Grantee hereby consents to receive such documents by electronic delivery and, if requested, to agree to participate in the Plan through an on-line or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or another third party
designated by the Company. 
 13. Administration. The Committee shall have the power to interpret the Plan and this Agreement and to
adopt such rules for the administration, interpretation and application of 

  

 6 








 
the Plan as are consistent therewith and to interpret or revoke any such rules. All actions taken and all interpretations and determinations made by the
Committee shall be final and binding upon the Grantee, the Company and all other interested persons. No member of the Committee shall be personally liable for any action, determination, or interpretation made in good faith with respect to the Plan
or this Agreement. 
 14. Successors and Assigns of the Company. The rights of the Company under this Agreement shall be transferable
to any one or more persons or entities, and all covenants and agreements hereunder shall inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, such transferees. 
 15. Notices. Any notice to be given under this Agreement to the Company shall be addressed to the Company in care of its Secretary. Any notice to be given to Employee shall be addressed to Employee at
the address listed in the Employer’s records. By a notice given pursuant to this Section, either party may designate a different address for notices. Any notice shall have been deemed given when actually delivered. 
 16. Severability. If any court or governmental authority declares all or any part of this Agreement or the Plan to be unlawful or invalid,
such unlawfulness or invalidity shall not invalidate any portion of this Agreement or the Plan not declared to be unlawful or invalid. Any part of this Agreement so declared to be unlawful or invalid shall, if possible, be construed in a manner that
will give effect to the terms of such part to the fullest extent possible while remaining lawful and valid. 
 17. Status as a General
Creditor of the Company. The Grantee shall have no direct or secured claim in any specific assets of the Company or the shares subject to the RSUs and shall have the status of a general unsecured creditor of the Company. 
 18. Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in this Section 18:

 (a) “Adjusted Earnings” for a particular year shall mean the Company’s reported Net Income for such year plus
(x) the after-tax amount included in reported Net Income for said year related to stock-based compensation awards granted after December 31, 2006 but minus (y) the amount of after-tax, stock-based compensation expense related

4-year cliff schedule. 
 (b) “Adjusted Earnings Per Share” or “Adjusted EPS” for a given calendar year shall mean the

 (c) “Cause” shall mean (i) the willful and continued failure by Grantee
to perform substantially his or her duties with the Company (other than any such failure resulting from Grantee’s Disability) for a significant period of time, or (ii) the willful engaging by Grantee in gross misconduct materially and
demonstrably injurious to the Company;

the services rendered, on average, by Grantee during the immediately preceding three full calendar years of employment with the Company (or, if employed by the Company less than three years, such lesser period) and the annual remuneration for such
