the award have been determined by the Committee and are set forth in this Agreement; 
  
 NOW THEREFORE, IT IS AGREED between the Company and the Participant as follows: 
  
 1. Award. This Agreement evidences the award to the Participant, pursuant to the terms of the Plan, of
             shares of Stock (the “Award”) which are subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 2 hereof (“Restricted Stock”). The award of Restricted Stock

Stock shall be vested (or earned) in one annual installment on the first anniversary of the Effective Date and six and one quarter percent (6.25%) of the remaining shares of Restricted Stock shall vest at the end of each calendar quarter thereafter
for a period of three years (each a “Vesting Date”); provided, however, that in no event shall a Vesting Date occur after the Participant’s termination of employment with the Company and its subsidiaries. 
  
 3. Restrictions on Restricted Stock. During the period commencing on
the Effective Date and ending on the Vesting Date with respect to any share of Restricted Stock (the “Restricted Period”):
