8. Section 83(b) Election for Restricted Stock Award; Tax Consultation. Under Section 83(a) of the Code, you will generally be taxed on the Shares subject to this Award on the date suchShares vest and the forfeiture restrictions lapse, based on their fair market value on such date, at ordinary income rates. For this purpose, the term “forfeiture restrictions” means the right of the Company to receive back any Sharessubject to this Award that have not vested upon a separation from service. Under Section 83(b) of the Code, you may elect to be taxed on the Shares on the Effective Date, based upon their fair market value on such date, at ordinary incomerates, rather than when and as the Shares that have not vested cease to be subject to the forfeiture restrictions. If you elect to accelerate the date on which you are taxed on the Shares under Section 83(b), an election (an “83(b)Election”) to such effect must be filed with the Internal Revenue Service within 30 days from the Effective Date. 

You understand youwill incur tax consequences as a result of acquisition or disposition of the Shares. The foregoing is only a summary of the federal income tax laws that apply to the Shares under this Agreement and does not purport to be complete. The actual taxconsequences of receiving or disposing of the Shares are complicated and depend, in part, on your specific situation and may also depend on the resolution of currently uncertain tax law and other variables not within the control of the Company.Therefore, you agree to consult with any tax consultants you think advisable in connection with the acquisition of the Shares and acknowledge that you are not relying, and will not rely, on the Company for any tax advice. 

If you determine to make an 83(b) Election, it is your responsibility to file such an election with the Internal Revenue Service within the 30-day periodafter the Effective Date, to deliver to the Company a signed copy of the 83(b) Election, and to file an additional copy of such election form with your federal income tax return for the calendar year in which the Effective Date occurs.
