AMENDED AND RESTATED 2007 OMNIBUS INCENTIVE PLAN 

RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT 
  

			
	Restricted Stock Unit Transferability	  	This grant is an award of stock units in the number of units set forth on the cover sheet (“Restricted Stock Units”). Your Restricted Stock Units may not be transferred in any manner other than by will, by laws of descent
and distribution, by instruments to an inter vivos testamentary trust or by gift to Family Members, which shall include for purposes of this Agreement a family limited partnership or any similar entity which is primarily for your benefit or for your
Family Members. These terms shall be binding upon your executors, administrators, successors and assigns.
		
	Definitions	  	Capitalized terms not defined in this Agreement are defined in the Plan, and have the meaning set forth in the Plan.
		
	Book Entry of Stock Pursuant to Vested Units	  	A book entry for the vested shares of Stock represented by the Restricted Stock Units will be made for you and the shares will be credited to your account with the plan administrator by the Company upon the termination of your
Service; provided, that, if such date occurs during a period in which you are (i) subject to a lock-up agreement restricting your ability to sell Stock in the open market or (ii) are restricted from selling Stock in the open market because a trading
window is not available, transfer of such vested shares will be delayed until the date immediately following the expiration of the lock-up agreement or the opening of a trading window but in no event beyond
2 1⁄2 months after the end of the calendar year in which the shares would have been otherwise transferred.
		
	Retention Rights	  	This Agreement does not give you the right to be retained by the Company (or any Affiliates) in any capacity. The Company (and any Affiliate) reserve the right to terminate your Service at any time and for any reason.
		
	Shareholder Rights	  	You do not have any of the rights of a shareholder with respect to the Restricted Stock Units unless and until the Stock relating to the Restricted Stock Units has been delivered to you. In the event of a cash dividend on
outstanding Stock, you will be entitled to receive a cash payment for each Restricted Stock Unit. The Company may in its sole discretion require that dividends will be reinvested in additional stock units at Fair Market Value on the dividend payment
date, subject to vesting and delivered at the same time as the Restricted Stock Unit.

	Adjustments	  	In the event of a stock split, a stock dividend or a similar change in the Company stock, the number of Restricted Stock Units covered by this grant will be adjusted (and rounded down to the nearest whole number) in accordance with
the terms of the Plan.
		
	Applicable Law	  	This Agreement will be interpreted and enforced under the laws of the State of Delaware, other than any conflicts or choice of law rule or principle that might otherwise refer construction or interpretation of this Agreement to the
substantive law of another jurisdiction.
		
	Data Privacy	  	 In order to administer the Plan, the Company may process personal data about you. Such data includes, but is not limited to the information
provided in this Agreement and any changes thereto, other appropriate personal and financial data about you such as home address and business addresses and other contact information, payroll information and any other information that might be deemed
appropriate by the Company to facilitate the administration of the Plan.
  
 By accepting
these Restricted Stock Units, you give explicit consent to the Company to process any such personal data. You also give explicit consent to the Company to transfer any such personal data outside the country in which you are employed, including, with
respect to non-U.S. resident grantees, to the United States, to transferees who shall include the Company and other persons who are designated by the Company to administer the Plan.

		
	Consent to Electronic Delivery	  	The Company may choose to deliver certain statutory materials relating to the Plan in electronic form. By accepting this grant you agree that the Company may deliver the Plan prospectus and the Company’s annual report to you in
