1



---

|2. | Satisfaction of Vesting Restrictions. No shares of Common Stock will be issued before you complete the requirements that are necessary for you to vest in the shares of
Common Stock underlying your RSUs. As soon as practicable after the date on which your RSUs vest in whole or in part the Company will issue to you or your duly-authorized transferee, free from vesting restrictions (but subject to such legends as the
Company determines to be appropriate), one share of Common Stock for each vested RSU. Certificates shall not be delivered to you unless all applicable employment and tax-withholding obligations have been satisfied in accordance with Section 13
of this Award Agreement.
|-- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|3. | Dividends. During the Restricted Period, you are entitled to any cash or stock dividends declared and paid to holders of shares of Common Stock. Any stock dividends
will be subject to the same vesting or forfeiture of the RSUs to which they are attributable. Any cash dividends will be reinvested in additional RSUs (determined by dividing the dividend amount by the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock) when the
dividends would be otherwise paid. These reinvested RSUs will also vest or be forfeited based on the vesting or forfeiture of the RSUs to which they are attributable.
|-- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|4. | Restrictions on Transfer of Award. Your rights under this Award Agreement may not be sold, pledged, or otherwise transferred without the prior written consent of the
Committee.
|-- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|5. | Termination of Employment. As provided in Section 7.2 of the Plan, if your Continuous Service terminates for any reason (other than as provided in
Section 8.2 of the Plan, after a Change in Control), your rights to shares of Common Stock underlying RSUs subject to this Award that have not vested shall automatically terminate and be forfeited; provided, however, that the Committee,
in its sole discretion, may waive or change the remaining restrictions or add additional restrictions with respect to any RSUs that would otherwise be forfeited, as the Committee may deem appropriate.
|-- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|6. | Change in Control. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in the event of your Change in Position subsequent to a Change in Control, your Award
shall immediately become fully vested.
|-- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|7. | Effect on Term on Employment. Neither the granting of the Award, nor the execution and delivery of this Agreement shall be deemed to create or confer on you any right
to be retained (or to continue) as an Employee or to interfere in any way with the right of the Company to terminate your employment at any time.
|-- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|8. | Adjustments.
|-- | ------------

(a) The total number of shares
of Common Stock subject to the grant of the Award shall be adjusted pro rata pursuant to Section 8.1(a) of the Plan. The foregoing adjustments shall be made by the Board, whose determination in that respect shall be final, binding and
conclusive.



2



---

(b) In the event of a proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the Committee shall notify you
as soon as practicable prior to the effective date of such proposed transaction. The Committee in its discretion may provide for you to have the right to fully vest in this Award within ten (10) days prior to such transaction as to all of the
shares of Common Stock covered thereby. In addition, the Committee may provide that any re-purchase Award of the Company applicable to the shares of Common Stock received through vesting of the Award shall lapse as to all such shares, provided that
the proposed dissolution or liquidation takes place at the time and in the manner contemplated. To the extent it has not been previously exercised, the Award shall terminate immediately prior to the consummation of the proposed dissolution or
liquidation.

(c) In the event of a merger of the Company with or into another Company, the sale of substantially all of the assets of the
Company, or the reorganization or consolidation of the Company, this Award shall be assumed or an equivalent Award or right substituted by the successor Company or the parent or a subsidiary of the successor Company. In the event that such successor
Company (or the parent or a subsidiary thereof) refuses to assume or substitute for the Award, you shall fully vest in the Award in full. If an Award becomes fully vested in lieu of assumption or substitution in the event of a merger or sale of
assets, the Committee shall notify you in writing or electronically that the Award shall be fully vested from the date of such notice, and the Award shall terminate upon the expiration of such period. For the purposes of this Section 8(c), the
Award shall be considered assumed if, following the merger, sale of assets, reorganization or consolidation, the Award or right confers the right to purchase or receive, for each share of Common Stock covered by your Award, immediately prior to such
transaction, the consideration (whether stock, cash, or other securities or property) received in the merger, sale of assets, reorganization or consolidation by holders of Common Stock for each share of Common Stock held on the effective date of the
transaction (and if holders were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares); provided, however, that if such consideration received in the merger, sale of assets,
reorganization or consolidation is not solely common stock of the successor Company (or the parent or a subsidiary thereof), the Committee may, with the consent of the successor Company, provide for the consideration to be received upon the exercise
of the Award, for each share of Common Stock subject to the Award, to be solely Common Stock of the successor Company (or the parent or a subsidiary thereof) equal in Fair Market Value to the per share consideration received by holders of Common
Stock in the merger or sale of assets.

(d) The foregoing adjustments described in Section 8(b) and Section 8(c)
shall be made by the Committee. Any such adjustment may provide for the elimination of any fractional share which might otherwise become subject to an Award.



|9. | Rights Prior to Issuance of Shares. You shall not have any rights as a shareholder with respect to shares of Common Stock covered by the Award until the issuance of a
certificate for such shares of Common Stock.
|-- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



3



---

|10. | Non-Assignability. The Award shall not be transferable by you except by will or the laws of descent and distribution. During your lifetime, the Award shall be settled
only by you, except in the event of your Disability, in which case your legal guardian or the individual designated in the your durable power of attorney may settle the Award. Any transferee of the Award shall take the same subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement and the Plan. No transfer of the Award by will or the laws of descent and distribution, or as otherwise permitted by the Committee, shall be effective to bind the Company unless the Company shall have been furnished with
written notice thereof and a copy of the will and/or such evidence as the Company may deem necessary to establish the validity of the transfer and the acceptance by the transferee or transferees of the terms and conditions of the Award.
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|11. | Designation of Death Beneficiary. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in the Plan, following the execution of this Award Agreement, you may
expressly designate a death beneficiary (the Beneficiary) to your interest, if any, in this Award and any underlying shares of Common Stock. You may designate the Beneficiary by completing and executing a designation of beneficiary
agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as Annex C (the Designation of Death Beneficiary) and delivering an executed copy of the Designation of Beneficiary to the Company. To the extent you do not duly designate
a beneficiary who survives your death, your estate will automatically be your death beneficiary.
|--- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|12. | Securities Laws.
|--- | ----------------

(a) Anything to the
contrary herein notwithstanding, the Companys obligation to sell and deliver Common Stock pursuant to the exercise of the Award is subject to such compliance with federal and state laws, rules and regulations applying to the authorization,
issuance or sale of securities as the Company deems necessary or advisable. The Company shall not be required to sell and deliver or issue Common Stock unless and until it receives satisfactory assurance that the issuance or transfer of such shares
shall not violate any of the provisions of the Securities Act of 1933 or the Exchange Act, or the rules and regulations of the Securities Exchange Commission promulgated thereunder or those of the Stock Exchange or any stock exchange on which the
Common Stock may be listed, the provisions of any state laws governing the sale of securities, or that there has been compliance with the provisions of such acts, rules, regulations and laws.

(b) The Committee may impose such restrictions on any shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of the Award as it may deem advisable,
including, without limitation, restrictions (i) under applicable federal securities laws, (ii) under the requirements of the Stock Exchange or any other securities exchange, recognized trading market or quotation system upon which such
shares of Common Stock are then listed or traded, and (iii) under any blue sky or state securities laws applicable to such shares. No shares shall be issued until counsel for the Company has determined that the Company has complied with all
requirements under appropriate securities laws.

|13. | Taxes.
|--- | ------

to withhold from your compensation or require you to remit sufficient funds to satisfy applicable withholding for income and employment taxes upon the vesting of the Award. You may make a written election to tender previously-acquired shares of
Common Stock or have shares of Common Stock withheld from the settlement of your Award, provided that the shares have an aggregate Fair Market Value sufficient to satisfy in whole or in part the applicable withholding taxes. The Company shall
not withhold more shares of Common Stock than are necessary to meet the minimum established tax withholding requirements of federal, state and local obligations.

(b) If you are subject to the insider trading restrictions of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, then you may use Common Stock to satisfy the applicable withholding requirements only if such disposition is
approved in accordance with Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act.

(c) Except to the extent otherwise specifically provided in any agreement
between you and the Company, by signing this Award Agreement you acknowledge being solely responsible for the satisfaction of any taxes that may arise pursuant to this Award (including taxes arising under Code Sections 409A (regarding deferred
compensation) or 4999 (regarding golden parachute excise taxes), and that neither the Company nor the Committee shall have any obligation whatsoever to pay such taxes or to otherwise indemnify or hold you harmless from any or all of such taxes. The
Committee shall have the sole discretion to interpret the requirements of the Code, including Section 409A, for purposes of the Plan and this Award Agreement.



|14. | Disputes. As a condition of the granting of the Award hereunder, you, as well as your permitted successors and assigns, legal guardian or the individual designated in
your durable power of attorney, agree that any dispute or disagreement which shall arise under or as a result of the Award, this Agreement or the Plan shall be determined and interpreted by the Committee in its sole discretion and judgment and that
any such determination and any such interpretation by the Committee shall be final and shall be binding and conclusive for all purposes.
|--- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|15. | Provisions of Plan Controlling. The provisions of this Agreement are subject to the terms and provisions of the Plan. In the event of any conflict between the
provisions of this Agreement, the Award, and/or the provisions of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall control.

|16. | Long-term consideration for Award. The terms and conditions set forth in Annex D (including the terms of the Protective Provisions as defined therein) are
hereby incorporated by reference and made an integral part of this Agreement. An invalidation of all or a part of Annex D or the Protective Provisions, your commencement of litigation to invalidate, modify or alter the terms and conditions
set forth in Annex D or the Protective Provisions, or your failure to perform your obligations under the Protective Provisions shall cause this Agreement to become null, void and unenforceable.

By signing and accepting your Award Agreement, you recognize and agree that the Companys key consideration in granting this Award is securing your
long-term commitment to serve as its

(a) Fiduciary Duty. During your employment with the Company you shall devote your full energies, abilities, attention and business time to the

Award Agreement is just and adequate consideration for the survival of the restrictions set forth herein, and that the Company may pursue any or all of the following remedies if you either violate the terms of this Section or succeed for any reason
in invalidating any part of it (it being understood that the invalidity of any term hereof would result in a failure of consideration for this Award):



| | (i) | declaration that the Award is null and void and of no further force or effect;
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
