Stock Unit Award attached hereto (the period ending on the vesting date for a Restricted Stock
Unit is hereinafter referred to as the “Restricted Period”).

     (a) General Withholding Obligations. As a condition of the receipt of payment with
respect to Restricted Stock Units, Participant shall make such arrangements as the Company
may require for the satisfaction of any federal, state, local or foreign withholding tax
obligations that may arise in connection with such receipt. The Company shall not be
required to make any payment under the Plan until such obligations are satisfied.
Participant understands that, upon receipt of the payment, he or she will recognize income
for tax purposes in an amount equal to the payment. If Participant is an employee, the
Company will be required to withhold from Participant’s compensation, or collect from
Participant and pay to the applicable taxing authorities an amount equal to a percentage of
this compensation income. Participant shall satisfy his or her tax withholding obligation
by one or some combination of the following methods: (i) by cash or check payment, (ii)
out of Participant’s current compensation, (iii) if payment is made in stock and if
permitted by the Company, in its discretion, by surrendering to the Company shares which
(A) in the case of shares previously acquired from the Company, have been owned by
Participant for more than six months on the date of surrender, and (B) have a Fair Market
Value determined as of the applicable Tax Date (as defined in section (c) below) on the
date of surrender equal to the amount required to be withheld, or (iv) by electing to have
the Company withhold from the payment an amount equal to the amount required to be
withheld.




     (b) Stock Withholding to Satisfy Withholding Tax Obligations. In the event the
Company allows Participant to satisfy his or her tax withholding obligations as provided in
section (a)(iii) above, such satisfaction must comply with the requirements of this section
(b) and all applicable laws. All elections by Participant to have shares withheld to
satisfy tax withholding obligations shall be made in writing in a form acceptable to the
Company and shall be subject to the following restrictions:




	 	(i)	 	the election must be made on or prior to the applicable Tax
Date (as defined in section (c) below);
	 
	 	(ii)	 	once made, the election shall be irrevocable as to the
particular shares to which the election is made; and
	 
	 	(iii)	 	all elections shall be subject to the consent or disapproval
of the Committee.






     (c) Definitions. For purposes of this Section 6, the Fair Market Value of the stock
to be withheld shall be determined on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to
be determined under the applicable laws (the “Tax Date”).




	7.	 	Beneficiary. The Participant may name, from time to time, any beneficiary or beneficiaries
to whom the Restricted Stock Units shall be paid in case of death.




 









 











     Each designation shall be on a form prescribed for such purpose by the Committee and shall
be effective only as set forth therein.




	8.	 	Tax Consequences. The tax laws and regulations governing the personal income tax impact of
this Award and the receipt and disposition of the Restricted Stock Units hereunder are complex
and subject to change. Participant should promptly consult his or her personal tax advisor
upon receipt of this Award.






	9.	 	Binding Effect. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties
hereto and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors, and assigns.
