following terms and conditions:



            1. Relationship to Plan.



            This Award is subject to all of the terms, conditions and provisions of the Plan and
administrative interpretations thereunder, if any, which have been adopted by the Company’s

discretion to take into account events and circumstances not
contemplated at the time of the award.



            (c) “EBIT” for any fiscal year means the Company’s earnings before interest and taxes as
reported by the Company in its annual report to stockholders for such fiscal year, as adjusted by
the Committee in its reasonable discretion to take into account events and circumstances not
contemplated at the time of this Award.



            (d) “Net
Debt” means notes payable, plus long term debt, minus cash and
cash equivalents (as such terms are
reported by the Company in its annual report to stockholders for the fiscal year ended March 31,
2006).



            (e) “Vesting Date” means for EBIT RSUs March 31 of any given fiscal year in which EBIT RSUs

Improvement RSUs March 31, 2006.



            (f) “Vesting Period” means the period commencing on the Award Date and ending on March 31,
2008 for the portion of the Award subject to Section 2(a) and March 31, 2006 for the portions of

            2. Vesting and Payment.



            (a) EBIT Vesting Schedule.                      Restricted Stock Units of the Award (the “EBIT RSUs”) shall
vest based on the trailing three year average EBIT for the three consecutive fiscal years ending
with the applicable fiscal year in accordance with the following schedule:

            The exact vesting percentage attained from the vesting schedule above shall be calculated
based on straight-line interpolation between the percentages shown in the vesting schedule above
with fractional percentages rounded to the nearest tenth of one percent; provided, however, in no
event shall the EBIT RSUs vest below fifty percent.



            If the three year average EBIT for any fiscal year subsequent to the initial fiscal year
within the Vesting Period results in a vesting percentage, the
applicable percentage of EBIT RSUs
which shall vest on the applicable Vesting Date shall equal (i) the vesting percentage derived from
the vesting schedule above for the given fiscal year end less (ii) the vesting percentage
previously attained in prior fiscal year(s), if any. At the end of the Vesting Period, if any EBIT
RSUs remain unvested, such EBIT RSUs shall be forfeited.



            The Grantee must be in continuous employment with the Company or any of its Affiliates or
serve as a Director from the Award Date through the Vesting Date in order for the EBIT RSUs to vest
as provided in this Section 2(a).



            (b) Operational
Excellence Vesting Schedule. ___ Restricted Stock Units of the Award (the
“Operational Excellence RSUs”) shall vest on the Vesting Date based on the number of points
achieved at the end of the 2006 fiscal year based on the Fiscal Year 2006 Operational Excellence
Goals (as described in Exhibit B to this Agreement) in accordance with the following

Committee. The Committee shall have the sole authority to determine the number of points achieved
for purposes of this schedule, and its determination shall be final, conclusive and binding on all
parties. The exact vesting percentage attained from the schedule shall be calculated based on
straight-line interpolation between the percentages shown in the schedule with fractional
percentages rounded to the nearest tenth of one percent. At the end of the Vesting Period, if any
Operational Excellence RSUs remain unvested, such Operational
Excellence RSUs shall be forfeited.



            The Grantee must be in continuous employment with the Company or any of its Affiliates or
serve as a Director from the Award Date through the Vesting Date in order for the Operational
Excellence RSUs to vest as provided in this Section 2(b).

Debt-to-Capitalization Ratio between 0.2 and 0.45 as of March 31, 2006. At the end of the Vesting
Period, if any Balance Sheet Improvement RSUs remain unvested, such
Balance Sheet Improvement RSUs shall be
forfeited.



            The Grantee must be in continuous employment with the Company or any of its Affiliates or
serve as a Director from the Award Date through the Vesting Date in order for the Balance Sheet
Improvement RSUs to vest as provided this Section 2(c).



            (d) Payment. One-third of the Restricted Stock Units that vest in accordance with the
provisions of Section 2(a), 2(b) or 2(c) shall become payable as soon as administratively
practicable following the applicable Vesting Date. The remaining two-thirds shall become payable
one-third on the first anniversary of such Vesting Date and one-third on the second anniversary of
such Vesting Date.



            The Grantee must be in continuous employment with the Company or any of its Affiliates or
serve as a Director from the Award Date through the date the portion of the Award would otherwise
become payable in order for the portion of the Award to become payable with

respect to additional Restricted Stock Units, otherwise such portion of the Award shall be
forfeited.




            (e) Calculations. Calculations of EBIT, the points achieved under the Operational Excellence
Goals and the Balance Sheet Improvement criteria shall be made and approved by the Committee. The
Committee shall have the sole authority to approve the calculations for purposes of the vesting
schedules, and its approval of such calculations shall be final, conclusive, and binding on all
parties.



            (f) Change in Control. This Award shall become fully vested and payable without regard to the
limitations set forth in subparagraph (a), (b), (c) or (d) above, provided that the Grantee has

since the Award Date, upon the occurrence of a Change in Control (as defined in Exhibit A
to this Agreement), and fully payable (without regard to the limitations set forth in subparagraph
(d) above) upon a Change in Control with respect to any Restricted Stock Units which have not been
theretofore forfeited, unless either (i) the Committee determines that the terms of the transaction
giving rise to the Change in Control provide that the Award is to be replaced within a reasonable
time after the Change in Control with an award of equivalent value of shares of the surviving
parent corporation or (ii) the Award is to be settled in cash in accordance with the last sentence
of this subparagraph (f). Upon a Change in Control, pursuant to Section 16 of the Plan, the
Company may, in its discretion, settle the Award by a cash payment that the Committee shall
determine in its sole discretion is equal to the fair market value of the Award on the date of such
event.



            3. Forfeiture of Award.



            Except as provided in any other agreement between the Grantee and the Company, if the
Grantee’s employment terminates, all unvested and vested (but not yet payable) Restricted Stock
Units, and all Dividend Equivalent Amounts (as defined in Section 4) attributable thereto, as of
the termination date shall be forfeited.



            4. Dividend Equivalent Payments.



            During the period of time between the Award Date and the earlier of the date the Restricted
Stock Units paid or are settled, the Restricted Stock Units will be evidenced by book entry
registration. As of each date that dividends are paid with respect to Class B Common Stock after
the end of the applicable Vesting Period, the Grantee shall have a number of additional Restricted
Stock Units credited to his or her account with respect to such dividends. The additional
Restricted Stock Units credited with respect to such dividends shall
be equal to: (i) the amount of the dividend paid per share of Class B Common Stock as of such
dividend payment date multiplied by the number of Restricted Stock Units credited to the Grantee’s
account immediately prior to such dividend payment date; divided by (ii) the Fair Market Value of the
Class B Common Stock on such dividend payment date.



            5. Timing and Form of Payment.



            The Grantee may elect on or before                     , 2005 to receive the Award at a time permitted
in and pursuant to an election form, subject to such terms and conditions set



4









 




forth in such form, as prescribed by the Committee (“Election Form”). The Grantee may timely
elect to further defer receipt of the Award in such time and manner, if any, as prescribed by the
Committee in its sole and absolute discretion.




            Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary including the Grantee’s election pursuant to
the Election Form, the Company reserves the right to pay the value of the vested Restricted Stock
Units, to the extent not yet paid, to the Grantee in the form of shares of Class B Common Stock or
an equivalent cash payment at any time following vesting of the Award.



            6. Delivery of Shares.



            The Company shall not be obligated to deliver any shares of Class B Common Stock if counsel to
the Company determines that such sale or delivery would violate any applicable law or any rule or
regulations of any governmental authority or any rule or regulation of, or agreement of the Company
with, any securities exchange or association upon which the Class B Common Stock is listed or
quoted. The Company shall in no event be obligated to take any affirmative action in order to
cause the delivery of shares of Class B Common Stock to comply with any such law, rule, regulations
or agreement.



            7. Notices.



            Notice or other communication to the Company with respect to this Award must be made in the
following manner, using such forms as the Company may from time to time provide:

such notice shall instead be made pursuant to the foregoing provisions at the Company’s current
address.



            Any notices provided for in this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement or in the Plan shall be given
