 Restricted Stock Award Notice
& Agreement (2009 Incentive Plan) 








 ATTACHMENT 1 
 PLANAR SYSTEMS, INC. 
 2009 INCENTIVE PLAN 

RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT 
 Pursuant to your Restricted Stock Award Notice (the “Award Notice”) and this Restricted Stock Award Agreement (this “Agreement”), Planar Systems, Inc.
(the “Company”) has granted you a Restricted Stock Award (the “Award”) under its 2009 Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) for the number of shares of the Company’s Common
Stock indicated in your Award Notice. Capitalized terms not explicitly defined in this Agreement but defined in the Plan shall have the same definitions as in the Plan. 
 The details of the Award are as follows: 
  

	1.	Vesting 

 The Award will
vest and no longer be subject to forfeiture according to the vesting schedule set forth in the Award Notice (the “Vesting Schedule”). Shares subject to the portion of the Award that has vested and is no longer subject to
forfeiture according to the Vesting Schedule are referred to herein as “Vested Shares.” Shares subject to the portion of the Award that has not vested and remains subject to forfeiture under the Vesting Schedule are referred
to herein as “Unvested Shares.” The Unvested Shares will vest (and to the extent so vested cease to be Unvested Shares remaining subject to forfeiture) in accordance with the Vesting Schedule (the Unvested and Vested Shares
are collectively referred to herein as the “Shares”). The Award will terminate and the Unvested Shares will be subject to forfeiture upon your Termination of Service as set forth in Section 2. 

 

	2.	Termination of Award upon Termination of Service 

 Upon your Termination of Service, any portion of the Award which has not vested as provided in Section 1 will immediately terminate. Unless the Plan Administrator determines otherwise prior to your
Termination of Service, all Unvested Shares shall immediately be forfeited upon your Termination of Service without payment of any further consideration to you. 
  

	3.	Consideration for Award 


Consideration has been paid by you to the Company for the Award in the form of services rendered. 

 

	4.	Securities Law Compliance 


4.1 You represent and warrant that you (a) have been furnished with a copy of the Plan and all information which you deem
necessary to evaluate the merits and risks of receipt of the Shares, (b) have had the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers concerning the information received about the Shares and the Company, and (c) have been given the
opportunity to obtain any additional information you deem necessary to verify the accuracy of any information obtained concerning the Shares and the Company. 

  
 Restricted Stock Award Notice
& Agreement (2009 Incentive Plan) 








 4.2 You hereby agree that you will in no event sell or distribute all or any part of
the Shares unless (a) there is an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws covering any such transaction involving the Shares or (b) the Company receives an opinion of your legal
counsel (concurred in by legal counsel for the Company) stating that such transaction is exempt from registration or the Company otherwise satisfies itself that such transaction is exempt from registration. You understand that the Company has no
obligation to you to register the Shares with the SEC and has not represented to you that it will so register the Shares. 

4.3 You confirm that you have been advised, prior to your receipt of the Shares, that neither the offering of the Shares nor any
offering materials have been reviewed by any administrator under the Securities Act or any other applicable securities act (the “Acts”) and that the Shares have not been registered under any of the Acts and therefore cannot
be resold unless they are registered under the Acts or unless an exemption from such registration is available. 
 4.4
You hereby agree to indemnify the Company and hold it harmless from and against any loss, claim or liability, including attorneys’ fees or legal expenses, incurred by the Company as a result of any breach by you of, or any inaccuracy in,
any representation, warranty or statement made by you in this Agreement or the breach by you of any terms or conditions of this Agreement. 
  

	5.	Transfer Restrictions 


5.1 Restrictions on Transfer. Unvested Shares will not be sold, transferred, assigned, encumbered or otherwise disposed of in
contravention of the provisions of this Agreement. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, such restrictions on transfer, however, will not apply to (a) a transfer of title to the Unvested Shares effected pursuant to your will or laws
of intestate succession, or (b) a transfer to the Company in pledge as a security for any purchase-money indebtedness incurred by you in connection with the acquisition of the Unvested Shares. 

5.2 Transferee Obligations. Each person (other than the Company) to whom the Shares are transferred by means of one of the
permitted transfers specified in Section 5.1 must, as a condition precedent to the validity of such transfer, acknowledge in writing to the Company that such person is bound by the provisions of this Agreement, to the same extent the Shares
would be so subject if retained by you.

	6.	Section 83(b) Election for Award 

 You understand that under Section 83(a) of the Code, the excess of the Fair Market Value of the Unvested Shares on the date the forfeiture restrictions lapse over the purchase price, if any, paid for
such Shares will be taxed, on the date such forfeiture restrictions lapse, as ordinary income subject to payroll and withholding tax and tax reporting, as applicable. For this purpose, the term “forfeiture restrictions” means the right of
the Company to receive back any Unvested Shares upon termination of your employment or services with the Company or a Related Company. You understand that you may elect under Section 83(b) of the Code to be taxed at the time the Unvested Shares
are acquired, rather than when and as the Unvested Shares cease to be subject to the forfeiture restrictions. Such election (an “83(b) Election”) must be filed with the Internal Revenue Service within 30 days from
the Grant Date of the Award. Even if the Fair Market Value of the Unvested Shares on the Grant Date equals the purchase price, if any, (and thus no tax is payable), you must file the election within the 30-day period to avoid the risk of adverse tax
consequences in the future. 
 You understand that there is a risk the Internal Revenue Service might challenge the
Company’s determination of the Fair Market Value of the Shares, in which case you will be deemed to have received more ordinary income than originally estimated. You also understand that (a) you will not be entitled to a deduction for any
ordinary income previously recognized as a result of the 83(b) Election if the Unvested Shares are subsequently forfeited to the Company, and (b) the 83(b) Election may cause you to recognize more ordinary income than you would have otherwise
recognized if the Internal Revenue Service determines that the value of the Unvested Shares on the date the Shares are transferred is higher than the Fair Market Value of the Shares on that date as determined by the Company and/or the value of the
Unvested Shares subsequently declines. 
 THE FORM FOR MAKING AN 83(b) ELECTION IS ATTACHED TO THIS AGREEMENT AS
EXHIBIT B. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT FAILURE TO FILE SUCH AN ELECTION WITHIN THE 30-DAY PERIOD MAY RESULT IN THE RECOGNITION OF ORDINARY INCOME BY YOU AS THE FORFEITURE RESTRICTIONS LAPSE. You further understand that an additional copy of such
election form should be filed with your federal income tax return for the calendar year in which the date of this Agreement falls. You acknowledge that the foregoing is only a summary of the federal income tax laws that apply to the receipt of the
Unvested Shares under this Agreement and does not purport to be complete. YOU FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE COMPANY HAS DIRECTED YOU TO SEEK INDEPENDENT ADVICE REGARDING THE APPLICABLE PROVISIONS OF THE CODE, THE INCOME TAX LAWS OF ANY
MUNICIPALITY, STATE OR FOREIGN COUNTRY IN WHICH YOU MAY RESIDE, AND THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF YOUR DEATH. 
 You agree to
execute and deliver to the Company with this Agreement a copy of the Acknowledgment and Statement of Decision Regarding Section 83(b) Election attached hereto as Exhibit A. You further agree that you will execute and deliver to the
Company with this Agreement a copy of the 83(b) Election attached hereto as Exhibit B if you chooses to make such an election. 
  

	7.	Book Entry Registration of the Shares 

 The Company will issue the Shares by registering the Shares in book entry form with the Company’s transfer agent in your name and the applicable restrictions will be noted in the records of the
Company’s transfer agent in the book entry system. No certificate(s) representing all or a part of the Shares may be issued until the Shares become Vested Shares. 

  
 -3-










	8.	Stop-Transfer Notices 


You understand and agree that, in order to ensure compliance with the restrictions referred to in this Agreement, the Company may issue
appropriate “stop-transfer” instructions to its transfer agent, if any, and that, if the Company transfers its own securities, it may make appropriate notations to the same effect in its own records. The Company will not be required to
(a) transfer on its books any Shares that have been sold or transferred in violation of the provisions of this Agreement or (b) treat as the owner of the Shares, or otherwise accord voting, dividend or liquidation rights to, any transferee
to whom the Shares have been transferred in contravention of this Agreement. 
  

	9.	Independent Tax Advice 


You acknowledge that determining the actual tax consequences to you of receiving or disposing of the Shares may be complicated. These tax
consequences will depend, in part, on your specific situation and may also depend on the resolution of currently uncertain tax law and other variables not within the control of the Company. You are aware that you should consult a competent and
independent tax advisor for a full understanding of the specific tax consequences to you of receiving or disposing of the Shares. Prior to executing this Agreement, you either have consulted with a competent tax advisor independent of the Company to
obtain tax advice concerning the receipt or disposition of the Shares in light of your specific situation or you have had the opportunity to consult with such a tax advisor but chose not to do so. 

 

	10.	Withholding and Disposition of Shares 

 You are ultimately responsible for all taxes owned in connection with this Award (e.g., at vesting and/or upon receipt of the Shares), including any domestic or foreign tax withholding obligation required
by law, whether national, federal, state or local, including FICA or any other social tax obligation (the “Tax Withholding Obligation”), regardless of any action the Company or any Related Company takes with respect to any such Tax
Withholding Obligation that arises in connection with this Award. As a condition to the removal of restrictions from your Vested Shares registered in book entry form with the Company’s transfer agent, you agree to make arrangements satisfactory
to the Company for the payment of the Tax Withholding Obligation that arises upon receipt of the Shares, as the forfeiture restrictions on any Shares lapse or otherwise. At your request, the Company will cancel from the Vested Shares the number of
whole shares of the Company’s common stock required to satisfy the minimum applicable Tax Withholding Obligation or other applicable taxes, the number to be determined by the Company based on the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date the
Company is required to withhold. 

  
 -4-










	11.	Dividends 

 The Company
will retain for your account any stock or cash dividends declared on the Unvested Shares. Any such cash dividends will be paid to you in a lump sum when and if such Unvested Shares vest, subject to any applicable Tax Withholding Obligation. Any
stock dividends will be issued in book entry form and will be subject to forfeiture to the same extent as the Unvested Shares with respect to which such stock dividends were paid. You will have no right to receive any dividend payments pursuant to
this Section 11 with respect to Shares that do not vest or are otherwise forfeited. 
  

	12.	General Provisions 


12.1 Assignment. The Company may assign its forfeiture rights at any time, whether or not such rights are then exercisable, to any
person or entity selected by the Company’s Board of Directors. 
 12.2 No Waiver. No waiver of any provision of this
Agreement will be valid unless in writing and signed by the person against whom such waiver is sought to be enforced, nor will failure to enforce any right hereunder constitute a continuing waiver of the same or a waiver of any other right
hereunder. 
 12.3 Cancellation of Shares. If Unvested Shares may no longer vest and become Vested Shares, then, from and
after such time, the person from whom such Shares are to be forfeited will no longer have any rights as a recipient of such Shares, such Shares will be deemed forfeited in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement, and the Company
or its assignees will be deemed the owner and recipient of such Shares, whether or not the certificates therefore have been delivered as required by this Agreement. 
 12.4 Undertaking. You hereby agree to take whatever additional action and execute whatever additional documents the Company may deem necessary or advisable in order to carry out or effect one or
more of the obligations or restrictions imposed on either you or the Shares pursuant to the express provisions of this Agreement. 
 12.5 Agreement Is Entire Contract. This Agreement constitutes the entire contract between the parties hereto with regard to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement is made pursuant to the
provisions of the Plan and will in all respects be construed in conformity with the express terms and provisions of the Plan. 

12.6 Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement will inure to the benefit of, and be binding on, the Company and its
successors and assigns and you and your legal representatives, heirs, legatees, distributees, assigns and transferees by operation of law, whether or not any such person will have become a party to this Agreement and agreed in writing to join herein
and be bound by the terms and conditions hereof. 
 12.7 No Employment or Service Contract. Nothing in this Agreement
will affect in any manner whatsoever the right or power of the Company, or a Related Company, to terminate your employment or services on behalf of the Company, for any reason, with or without Cause. 

  
 -5-









 12.8 Shareholder of Record. You will be recorded as a shareholder of the Company and
will have, subject to the provisions of this Agreement and the Plan, all the rights of a shareholder with respect to the Shares. 
 12.9 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, but which, upon execution, will constitute one and the same instrument.

 12.10 Governing Law. This Agreement will be construed and administered in accordance with and governed by the laws of
the State of Oregon.
