LTIP,] all unvested Shares subject to this award will be forfeited as of the date of your termination of employment and any rights with respect to such forfeited Shares will immediately cease. 
  
 CONFIDENTIALITY, NON-COMPETITION AND NON-SOLICITATION: In consideration of your
receipt of this award, you agree as follows: 
  
 (a) You will hold in a fiduciary
capacity for the benefit of the Company all information, knowledge or data relating to the Company or any Subsidiaries and their respective businesses which the Company or any Subsidiaries consider to be proprietary, trade secret or confidential
that you obtain or have previously obtained during your employment by the Company or any Subsidiaries and that is not public knowledge (other than as a result of your violation of this provision) (“Confidential Information”). You will not
directly or indirectly use any Confidential Information for any purpose not associated with the activities of the Company or any Subsidiaries, or communicate, divulge or disseminate Confidential Information to any person or entity not authorized by
the Company or any Subsidiaries to receive it at any time during or after your employment with the Company, except with the prior written consent of the Company or as otherwise required by law or legal process. 
  
 (b) For a period of two years after the termination of your employment with the Company or
any Subsidiaries, for any reason, voluntary or involuntary, you will not, without the written consent of the Company, directly or indirectly, engage or hold an interest in any company listed in Exhibit A, or any subsidiary or affiliate of such
company (the “Competing Businesses”), or directly or indirectly have any interest in, own, manage, operate, control, be connected with as a stockholder (other than as a holder of less than five percent (5%) of any class of publicly traded
securities of any such Competing Business).

leave the employment of the Company or any Subsidiaries (other than persons employed in a clerical, non-professional or non-management position). 







 (d) You understand and agree that the restrictions set forth above, including, without limitation, the duration, and the
business scope of such restrictions, are reasonable and necessary to protect the legal interests of the Company. You further agree that the Company will be entitled to seek injunctive relief in the event of any actual or threatened breach of such
restrictions. If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be unenforceable by any court, then such provision will be modified or omitted only to the extent necessary to make the remaining provisions of this Agreement enforceable.

this award or from future earnings (including salary, bonus or any other payments.) In advance of [the] [each] Vesting Date you may elect to pay the withholding amounts due by surrendering to the Company a number of the Shares otherwise deliverable
on the Vesting Date that have a fair market value on the Vesting Date equal to the amount of the payroll withholding taxes due.
