(ii) the number of full years of the Grantees service with the Company as of the date of termination, is equal to or greater than seventy (70); provided, however, that the Grantees Retirement shall not be deemed to have occurred

ARTICLE II  GRANT OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS

Section 2.1 Grant of Restricted Stock Units. In consideration of the Grantees agreement to remain in the employ of the Company or a
Subsidiary and for other good and valuable consideration, on the date hereof the Company hereby grants to the Grantee that number of Restricted Stock Units set forth above (the Award) under the Plan upon the terms and conditions set
forth in this Agreement. The Grantee accepts the Award and agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan with respect to the Award.

Section 2.2 Consideration to the Company. In consideration of the grant of Restricted Stock Units by the Company, the Grantee agrees to render faithful and efficient services to the Company or a Subsidiary with such duties and
responsibilities as the Company shall from time to time prescribe. Nothing in this Agreement or in the Plan shall, however, confer upon the Grantee any right to continue in the employ of the Company or any Subsidiary or shall interfere with or

of, a stockholder of the Company with respect to any Restricted Stock Units recorded in such account. The Restricted Stock Units shall not be treated as property or as a trust fund of any kind, and the Grantee shall not have any interest in any fund
or specific assets of the Company by reason of the Restricted Stock Unit account established for the Grantee.

Restricted Stock Units. The Administrator shall make adjustments with respect to the Restricted Stock Units in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.3 of the Plan.

ARTICLE III  RESTRICTIONS AND SETTLEMENT

Section 3.1 Forfeiture of Restricted
Stock Units. All Restricted Stock Units with respect to which the Restrictions have not lapsed shall be terminated immediately upon a Termination of Employment for any reason other than Retirement. If the Grantee incurs a Termination of
Employment as a result of the Grantees Retirement and such Termination of Employment occurs prior to the lapse of Restrictions in accordance with Section 3.2, the Restricted Stock Unit shall not be terminated, but shall be settled when
and as described under Section 3.2.

Section 3.2 Lapse of Restrictions.



| | (a) | General. The Restrictions shall lapse as follows:
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------



| | (i) | The Restrictions shall lapse with respect to thirty-three and one-third percent (33 1/3%) of the Restricted Stock Units on the first anniversary of the Grant Date;
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (ii) | The Restrictions shall lapse with respect to thirty-three and one-third percent (33 1/3%) of the Restricted Stock Units on the second anniversary of the Grant Date;
| | ---- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (iii) | The Restrictions shall lapse with respect to thirty-three and one-third percent (33 1/3%) of the Restricted Stock Units on the third anniversary of the Grant Date;
| | ----- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

provided, however, that the Restrictions shall not lapse with respect to a fractional share until the latest date on which the Restrictions
applicable to all Restricted Stock Units have lapsed.



| | (b) | Settlement of Restricted Stock Units. The Company shall settle the Restricted Stock Units with respect to which the Restrictions lapse by converting those Restricted Stock
Units into shares of the Companys Common Stock to be issued to the Grantee on the dates that the Restrictions lapse, subject to compliance with the conditions of the Agreement.
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (c) | Delay of Settlement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a settlement date occurs on a date that is not during a window period (which means a period designated by
the Company during which the Grantee is permitted to purchase or sell shares of Common Stock) then, unless the Company determines otherwise, the settlement date automatically shall be deferred to the first trading day of the first window
period beginning after such date. In addition, if a settlement date occurs at a time when the Company reasonably anticipates that its deduction with respect to the payment otherwise would be limited or eliminated by application of
Section 162(m) of the Code, then, unless the Company determines otherwise, delivery of the shares of Common Stock automatically shall be deferred until the first trading day of the first window period after the payment would cease
to be subject to such limitation or elimination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall settlement be delayed pursuant to this subparagraph (c) to a date that is after the end of the calendar year in which the Restrictions
applicable to the Restricted Stock Unit have lapsed.

involuntary or by operation of law by judgment, levy, attachment, garnishment or any other legal or equitable proceedings (including bankruptcy) and any attempted disposition thereof shall be null and void and of no effect; provided, however, that
this Section 4.1 shall not prevent transfers by will or by the applicable laws of descent and distribution.

Section 4.3 Tax Withholding. No stock certificates will be issued to the Grantee unless the Grantee has made arrangements acceptable to the Company to pay
any withholding taxes that may be due in connection with any aspect of this Award, including the vesting and settlement of the Award. The Grantee also hereby authorizes the Company, or the Grantees actual employer, to satisfy all withholding
obligations of the Company or the actual employer from the Grantees wages or other cash compensation payable to the Grantee by the Company or the actual employer. The number of shares of Common Stock which may be withheld or repurchased from
the Grantee in order to satisfy the Grantees federal and state income and payroll tax liabilities with respect to any aspect of this Award shall be limited to the number of shares which have a Fair Market Value on the date of withholding or
repurchase equal to the aggregate amount of such liabilities based on the minimum statutory withholding rates for federal and state tax income and payroll tax purposes that are applicable to such supplemental taxable income.

Section 4.4 Investor Representations. The Grantee hereby represents and warrants to the Company: (a) that the Common Stock subject to the Restricted
Stock Units is being acquired for purposes of investment and not with a view to distribution thereof; (b) that if the Grantee is or becomes an affiliate of the Company (as defined in regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange
Commission) prior to the time of any proposed resale of shares acquired, or if such shares are not registered under the Securities Act, the Grantee will comply with all applicable conditions of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations
promulgated thereunder in effecting such resale; and (c) that the Grantee shall not dispose of any shares of such Common Stock in any manner that is, or may involve the Company in, a violation of any federal or state securities law, including
the Securities Act. The Administrator may require that the share certificates be inscribed with a legend restricting transfer in accordance with applicable securities law requirements.

By signing this Agreement, the Grantee agrees not to sell any shares of the Companys Common Stock issued upon settlement of the Restricted Stock Units at a time when applicable laws or Company policies prohibit
a sale. This restriction will apply as long as the Grantee is an employee, consultant or director of the Company or a Subsidiary.

Section 4.5
Rights as Stockholder. The holder of the Award shall not be, nor have any of the rights or privileges of, a stockholder of the Company in respect of any shares subject to the Award unless and until certificates representing such shares shall
have been issued by the Company to such holder.

Section 4.6 Beneficiary Designation. The Grantee may dispose of the Restricted Stock Units in
a written beneficiary designation. A beneficiary designation must be filed with the Company on the proper form. It will be recognized only if it has been received at the Companys headquarters before the Grantees death. If the Grantee
files no beneficiary designation or if none of the Grantees designated beneficiaries survives the Grantee, then the Grantees estate will receive any vested Restricted Stock Units that the Grantee holds at the time of death.

Section 4.7 Section 409A. The Grantee acknowledges that this Agreement and the Plan, or portions thereof, may be subject to Section 409A of the
Code, that rules interpreting this Code section may be issued in the future, and that changes may need to be made to this Agreement to avoid adverse tax consequences under Section 409A. The Grantee agrees that the Company may amend the
Agreement as it deems necessary or desirable to avoid such adverse tax consequences.

Section 4.8 Notices. Any notice to be given under the
terms of this Agreement to the Company shall be addressed to the Company in care of its Secretary and any notice to be given to the Grantee shall be addressed to him at the address set forth in the records of the Company. By a notice given pursuant
to this Section 4.8, either party may hereafter designate a different address for notices to be given to him. Any notice which is required to be given to the Grantee shall, if the Grantee is then deceased, be given to the Grantees
personal representative if such representative has previously informed the Company of his status and address by written notice under this Section 4.8. Any notice shall have been deemed duly given when enclosed in a properly sealed envelope or
wrapper addressed as aforesaid, deposited (with postage prepaid) in a post office or branch post office regularly maintained by the United States Postal Service.

Section 4.9 Miscellaneous. Titles are provided herein for convenience only and are not to serve as a basis for interpretation or construction of this Agreement. This Agreement shall be administered, interpreted and enforced
under the internal laws of the State of California without regard to conflicts of laws thereof. This Agreement and the Plan may be amended without the consent of the Grantee, provided that such amendment would not impair any rights of the Grantee
under this Agreement. The invalidity or unenforceability of any particular provision hereof shall not affect the other provisions hereof, and this Agreement shall be construed in all respects as if such invalid or unenforceable provision was
omitted. The Award and any payments with respect thereto shall not constitute compensation for purposes of any pension, welfare or other benefit plan or policy of the Company unless provided for therein. This Agreement may be executed
simultaneously in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Companys rights and obligations hereunder
may be assigned to any Subsidiary or to any successor pursuant to a merger, consolidation or similar event. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement and the respective rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall inure to the benefit of and be
binding upon, the successors and assigns of the parties.
