 RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT
 Restricted Stock
    
    This Agreement evidences an award of shares of Stock in the number
set forth on the cover sheet and subject to the vesting and other
conditions set forth herein, in the Plan and on the cover sheet
(the Restricted Stock).Transfer of
Unvested Restricted
Stock
    
    Unvested Restricted Stock may not be sold, assigned, transferred,
pledged, hypothecated or otherwise encumbered, whether by operation
of law or otherwise, nor may the Restricted Stock be made subject
to execution, attachment or similar process. If you attempt to do
any of these things, the Restricted Stock will immediately become
forfeited.Issuance and Vesting
    
    The Company will issue your Restricted Stock in the name set forth
on the cover sheet.Your right to the Stock under this Restricted Stock grant and this
Agreement shall vest in accordance with the vesting schedule set
forth on the cover sheet so long as you continue in Service on the
vesting dates set forth on the cover sheet.Evidence of Issuance
    
    The issuance of the Stock under the grant of Restricted Stock
evidenced by this Agreement shall be evidenced in such a manner as
the Company, in its discretion, will deem appropriate, including,
without limitation, book-entry, registration or issuance of one or
more Stock certificates, with any unvested Restricted Stock bearing
the appropriate restrictions imposed by this Agreement. As your
interest in the Restricted Stock vests, the recordation of the
number of shares of Restricted Stock attributable to you will be
appropriately modified if necessary. In so far as any share
certificates are issued for unvested Restricted Stock, such
certificates shall be held in escrow and shall contain an
appropriate legend.Forfeiture of
Unvested Restricted
Stock
    
    Unless the termination of your Service triggers accelerated vesting
of your Restricted Stock pursuant to the terms of this Agreement,
the Plan, or any other written agreement between the Company (or
any Affiliate) and you, you will automatically forfeit to the
Company all of the unvested shares of Restricted Stock in the event
your Service terminates for any reason.Forfeiture of Rights
    
    If you should take actions in violation or breach of or in conflict
with any non-competition agreement, any agreement prohibiting

thereof, the Company has the
right to cause an immediate forfeiture of your rights to the
Restricted Stock awarded under this Agreement, and the Restricted Stock shall immediately expire.In addition, if you have vested in
Shares of Restricted Stock awarded under this Agreement
during the two year period prior to your actions, you will owe the
Company a cash payment (or forfeiture of shares) in an amount
determined as follows: (1) for any Shares that you have sold prior
to receiving notice from the Company, the amount will be the
proceeds received from the sale(s), and (2) for any Shares that you
still own, the amount will be the number of Shares owned times the
Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date you receive notice from
the Company (provided, that the Company may require you to satisfy
your payment obligations hereunder either by forfeiting and
returning to the Company the Shares or any other shares or making a
cash payment or a combination of these methods as determined by the
Company in its sole discretion).Leaves of Absence
    
    For purposes of this Agreement, your Service does not terminate
when you go on a bona fideemployee leave of absence that was
approved by the Company in writing if the terms of the leave
provide for continued Service crediting, or when continued Service
crediting is required by applicable law. Your Service terminates
in any event when the approved leave ends unless you immediately
return to active employee work.The Company determines, in its sole discretion, which leaves count
for this purpose, and when your Service terminates for all purposes
under the Plan.Section 83(b)
Election
    
    You may not make an election under Section 83 of the Internal
Revenue Code (a Section 83(b) Election) to be taxed at the time
the unvested shares of Restricted Stock are acquired rather than
when such shares of Restricted Stock become vested. If you do make
a Section 83(b) Election, you will forfeit all of the Restricted
Stock.Withholding Taxes
    
    You agree as a condition of this grant that you will make
acceptable arrangements to pay any withholding or other taxes that
may be due as a result of the vesting or receipt of the Restricted
Stock. In the event that the Company determines that any federal,
state, local or foreign tax or withholding payment is required
relating to the vesting or receipt of Stock arising from this
grant, the Company shall have the right to require such payments
from you, or withhold such amounts from other payments due to you
from the Company or any Affiliate (including withholding the
delivery of vested shares of Stock otherwise deliverable under this
Agreement).Retention Rights
    
    This Agreement and the grant evidenced hereby do not give you the
right to be retained by the Company (or any Affiliate) in any
capacity.
