  any reason other than the Directors death, Total and Permanent Disability, or Normal Retirement,
  all of the Restricted Shares that have not yet become Vested Shares (as defined below) at the effective
  time of such termination (as determined under Section 4 hereof), shall be returned to and canceled
  by the Company and shall be deemed to have been forfeited by Director. Upon any forfeiture of Restricted
  Shares under this Section 3(b), the Company will pay the Director a per share price for any such
  forfeited Restricted Shares equal to the lesser of (i) the amount determined by dividing the aggregate amount of the Directors Annual Retainer
  that the Director elected to receive in the form of the Restricted Shares, rather than in cash, by
  the aggregate number of Restricted Shares awarded under Section 1 hereof, or (ii) an amount equal
  to the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date the Directors membership on
  the Board is terminated.

  Shares on February 4, 2006, provided that the Director remains a member of the Board at all times
  prior to such date. In the event the Directors membership on the Board is terminated for any
  reason prior to February 4, 2006, no further vesting (pro rata or otherwise) shall occur from and
  after the effective date of such termination.

  of the Directors death, Total and Permanent Disability, or Normal Retirement.

| | (c)  Except as otherwise provided in Section 4(d) of the Policy, to the extent the Restrictions
  shall have lapsed under Section 4(a) with respect to any Restricted Shares, those shares (Vested
