          (b) If no Stock Sale Agreement (as defined below) is in effect on a Settlement Date, the
Committee, in its sole discretion, may instead deliver cash in lieu of any or all shares of Stock
deliverable on such Settlement Date, with the amount of cash due being equal to the Fair Market
Value of the shares of Stock for which cash is substituted.



 









 






          (c) For purposes of this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement, “Settlement Date” shall mean (i)
each of March 1, June 1, September 1 and December 1 (or, if on any such date the

to include such person or persons.



     6. Non-Transferability. The Restricted Stock Units are not transferable by the Holder
otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. No assignment or transfer of the
Restricted Stock Units, or of the rights represented thereby, whether voluntary or involuntary, by

on which Stock is issued hereunder, the Company shall have the right to deduct from each such
issuance that number of shares of Stock valued at their Fair Market Value (as defined in the Plan)
equal to the minimum Federal, state and local taxes required by law to be paid or withheld with
respect to such issuance (hereinafter, “Tax Obligations”).



-2-









 






          (b) If so directed by Holder in an agreement then in effect between the Company and Holder (a
“Stock Sale Agreement”), upon any issuance of shares of Stock underlying the Restricted Stock
Units, the Company shall sell on Holder’s behalf on each Settlement Date that number of shares of
Stock otherwise deliverable to Holder on such Settlement Date in order to generate cash to satisfy
the Tax Obligations with respect to such Settlement Date in accordance with such Stock Sale
Agreement.




          (c) If, on any Settlement Date, all or any portion of the Restricted Stock Unit is settled in
cash in accordance with paragraph 3(b) above, then the Company will withhold from such cash an
amount equal to the full amount of the Tax Obligations with respect to such Settlement Date,
provided that if the cash delivered is insufficient to cover the full amount of such Tax
Obligations, the Company may elect to withhold shares of Stock in accordance with paragraph 7(a)
above in satisfaction of the remaining Tax Obligations.


Notwithstanding the foregoing, Holder hereby acknowledges and understands that, in the event the
applicable method above is unavailable or otherwise fails to fully satisfy the Tax Obligations with
respect to any Settlement Date, (i) the Company shall have the right to either withhold from other
amounts payable by the Company to Holder, or require Holder to pay Company the amount necessary to
fully reimburse the Company for such Tax Obligations, and (ii) unless Holder fully reimburses the

or other rights in respect of such share for which the record date is prior to the date upon which
the Holder shall become the holder of record thereof.



     9. Compliance with Law. Notwithstanding any of the provisions hereof, the Holder
hereby agrees that the Company will not be obligated to issue or transfer any shares to the Holder

any law or regulation or any governmental authority.



     10. Award not a Service Contract. This Restricted Stock Unit Award is not an
employment or service contract, and nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to create in any way
whatsoever any obligation on the Holder’s part to continue in the service of the Company or an
Affiliate, or on the part of the Company or an Affiliate to continue such service. In addition,
nothing in this Restricted Stock Unit Award shall obligate the Company or an Affiliate, their
respective stockholders, boards of directors, officers or employees to continue any relationship
with the Holder as an employee, director or consultant for the Company or an Affiliate.



-3-









 





     11. Unsecured Obligation. This Restricted Stock Unit Award is unfunded, and as a
holder of vested Restricted Stock Units subject to this Award, the Holder shall be considered an
unsecured creditor of the Company with respect to the Company’s obligation, if any, to issue shares
of Stock pursuant to Section 3 of this Agreement.

at the time of Holder’s termination of employment or service with the Company Holder is a
“specified employee” as defined in Section 409A of the Code, and the deferral of the commencement
of any payments or benefits otherwise payable hereunder as a result of such termination of
employment or service is necessary in order to prevent the imposition of any accelerated or
additional tax under Section 409A of the Code, then the Company will defer the commencement of the

benefits ultimately paid or provided to Holder) until the date that is 6 months following Holder’s
