 WHEREAS, the Restricted Stockholder is an employee of the Corporation; 
 WHEREAS, the Restricted Stockholder entered into the Second Amended and Restated Employment Agreement, dated as of May 24, 2007 (as amended, the “Employment Agreement”), by and between the
Corporation and the Restricted Stockholder; 
 WHEREAS, pursuant to the terms of the Employment Agreement, the Corporation is obligated to
grant to the Restricted Stockholder certain performance based equity awards in the form of restricted shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), of the Corporation (the “Restricted
Stock”) under the Corporation’s Amended and Restated 2003 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Stock Incentive Plan”) or such other similar stock plan that the Corporation may have in place, based on the long-term
framework for the Corporation adopted by the Compensation Committee; and 
 WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 4 of the Employment Agreement,
in the event that the Corporation does not have sufficient shares pursuant to the Stock Incentive Plan (or such other similar stock plan that the Corporation may have in place) to grant the number of shares of Restricted Stock to the Restricted
Stockholder as provided in Section 4 of the Employment Agreement, the Corporation is obligated to grant to the Restricted Stockholder such number of shares of Restricted Stock that are available under the Corporation’s stock incentive
plans, and in lieu of any shares of Restricted Stock not granted (the “Remaining Stock”), grant to the Restricted Stockholder a compensation package having performance targets and a value equivalent to the value of the shares of
Remaining Stock not issued to the Restricted Stockholder; and 
 WHEREAS, the Corporation does not have sufficient shares available under the
Stock Incentive Plan to fulfill the grant of 40,000 shares of Restricted Stock required to be granted to the Restricted Stockholder in 2009 as required by Section 4 of the Employment Agreement; and 
 WHEREAS, the Restricted Stockholder has agreed to accept the alternate consideration set forth in this Agreement in lieu of the Remaining Stock not
granted to the Restricted Stockholder due to the lack of availability of such shares under the Stock Incentive Plan; and 
 WHEREAS, the
Restricted Stockholder has agreed to use any cash paid to the Restricted Stockholder in lieu of the Remaining Stock to purchase Common Stock of the Corporation, and the Compensation Committee of the Corporation’s Board of Directors 








 
has determined that it would be in the best interest of the Corporation for the Restricted Stockholder to be granted cash in lieu of such Remaining Stock and
to use such cash to purchase Common Stock; and 
 WHEREAS, the Restricted Stockholder has voluntarily agreed to be paid 7.5% less than his
contractual base salary during the Corporation’s fiscal year 2009; and 
 WHEREAS, the Corporation is willing to grant the portion of
the Restricted Stock that the Corporation has the shares available to grant to the Restricted Stockholder as of the date of this Agreement rather than on May 1, 2009 in exchange for the covenants and agreements of the Restricted Stockholder
hereunder; and 
 WHEREAS, the parties hereto desire to enter into this Agreement on the terms hereinafter set forth. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement, the Corporation and the Restricted Stockholder
hereby agree as follows: 
 1. Granting of Restricted Shares and Alternate Consideration in Lieu of Remaining Shares.
(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Employment Agreement, the Corporation hereby agrees immediately to grant to the Restricted Stockholder, effective as of the date hereof (the “Date of Grant”), 30,000
restricted shares of Common Stock (the “Performance Shares”), subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Employment Agreement and the Stock Incentive Plan, in partial satisfaction of the Corporation’s
obligation to grant Restricted Stock to the Restricted Stockholder in 2009 pursuant to Section 4 of the Employment Agreement. The restrictions on the Performance Shares shall lapse, and the Performance Shares shall be fully vested, on
the Vesting Date as set forth in Section 2 below. 
 (b) In lieu of the 10,000 shares of the Remaining Stock that the Corporation
is obligated pursuant to Section 4 of the Employment Agreement to grant to the Restricted Stockholder in 2009, the Corporation hereby agrees to grant to the Restricted Stockholder, and the Restricted Stockholder agrees to accept, a cash payment
(the “Alternate Payment”), in an amount equal to the value of such shares of Remaining Stock not issued to the Restricted Stockholder, on the Date of Determination (as defined below). For purposes of determining the amount of the
Alternate Payment, the value of the shares of Remaining Stock not issued to the Restricted Stockholder shall be determined in good faith by the Compensation Committee or the Board of Directors, as the case may be, based on the closing price of the
Corporation’s Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange (or such other securities exchange on which the Corporation’s common stock may then be traded) on the Vesting Date (as defined below) or, if such date does not occur during an open
trading window during which the Restricted Stockholder is permitted to purchase shares of Common Stock of the Corporation pursuant to the Corporation’s insider trading policy or applicable law, on the first day of the next open trading window
after such Vesting Date (such date, the “Date of Determination”).

 (c) The Restricted Stockholder hereby acknowledges that the consideration set forth above in paragraphs
(a) and (b) of this Section 1 is in full satisfaction of the Corporation’s obligation to grant the Restricted Stockholder 40,000 shares of Restricted Stock on May 1, 2009 pursuant to Section 4 of the Employment
Agreement. The Restricted Stockholder further acknowledges that the Corporation shall not be obligated pursuant to the Employment Agreement to grant the Restricted Stockholder additional shares of Restricted Stock in calendar year 2009. 

(d) All capitalized terms used herein but not defined shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Stock Incentive Plan. 
 2. Vesting Period. The Performance Shares shall no longer be subject to the restrictions set forth herein on the earlier to occur of (such
date, the “Vesting Date”): 
  

	 	(a)	the last day of any five consecutive trading day period during which the average closing price of the Corporation’s common stock on the New York Stock Exchange (or such other
securities exchange on which the Corporation’s Common Stock may then be traded) equals or exceeds 12% above the closing stock price on December 31, 2008 ($12.88); or 

  

	 	(b)	the date there is a Change of Control of the Corporation (as defined in the Employment Agreement). 

 Except as otherwise provided in the Employment Agreement, in the event the Restricted Stockholder’s employment is terminated by the Corporation or
voluntarily by the Restricted Stockholder, the Restricted Stockholder will surrender all of the unvested Performance Shares issuable pursuant to the terms hereof. 
 The number of shares granted and the stock price referred to above shall be adjusted for changes in the Common Stock as outlined in Section 18.4 of the Stock Incentive Plan or as otherwise mutually agreed in
writing between the parties. 
 3. Non-Transferability. The Performance Shares that remain subject to the restrictions set
forth herein may not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or otherwise encumbered or disposed of by the Restricted Stockholder until such restrictions shall have lapsed in accordance with the terms hereof or in the event of a transfer,
assignment, pledge or other disposal, such event has been approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Restricted Stockholder agrees that, to the extent the restrictions set forth herein lapse with respect to any of the
Performance Shares, such unrestricted Performance Shares may be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or otherwise encumbered or disposed of by the Restricted Stockholder, subject to applicable law, regulation or stock exchange rule, provided that
Restricted Stockholder shall be entitled to satisfy the minimum withholding tax obligation (or such greater withholding amount as the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors may approve) by electing to have the Corporation withhold from the
Performance Shares that number of shares

having a Fair Market Value (as defined in the Stock Incentive Plan) equal to the minimum amount required to be withheld (or such greater withholding amount
as the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors may approve), determined on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined. 
 4. No Right to Continued Employment. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon the Restricted Stockholder any right with respect to continuance of employment by the Corporation, nor shall it interfere
in any way with the right of Corporation to terminate the Restricted Stockholder’s employment at any time. This Agreement does not constitute an employment contract. This Agreement does not guarantee employment for the length of time of the
vesting period or for any portion thereof. 
 5. Restricted Stockholder Bound by Stock Incentive Plan. The Restricted
Stockholder hereby acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Stock Incentive Plan and agrees to be bound by all the terms and provisions thereof. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of the Stock
Incentive Plan, the provisions of this Agreement shall control. The Restricted Stockholder agrees to accept as binding, conclusive, and final all decisions or interpretations of the Committee upon any questions arising under the Stock Incentive
Plan. 
 6. Section 83(b) Election. If the Restricted Stockholder files an election with the Internal Revenue Service to
include the Fair Market Value of any Performance Shares in gross income as of the Date of Grant, the Restricted Stockholder agrees to promptly furnish the Corporation with a copy of such election, together with the amount of any federal, state,
local or other taxes required to be withheld to enable the Corporation to claim an income tax deduction with respect to such election. 
 7.
Withholding Taxes. The Performance Shares will be subject to any federal, state, or local taxes of any kind required by law at the time the Performance Shares vest and become nonforfeitable. By accepting the Performance Shares, the
Restricted Stockholder agrees to promptly satisfy federal, state and local withholding requirements, when and if applicable, for such Performance Shares by making a cash payment to the Corporation equal to the required withholding amount or by
electing to have the Corporation withhold from the Performance Shares that number of shares having a Fair Market Value (as defined in the Stock Incentive Plan) equal to the minimum amount required to be withheld (or such greater withholding amount
as the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors may approve), determined on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined.
