THIS SEPARATION AND RELEASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into by and between Joseph P. Campanelli (“Executive”) and Flagstar Bancorp, Inc. a Michigan corporation maintaining offices at 5151 Corporate Drive, Troy, Michigan 48098 (the “Company”). (Executive and the Company are also sometimes referred to herein collectively as the “Parties” or individually as the “Party”).  
This Agreement is legally-binding.  Executive is hereby advised to consult with an attorney before signing it.
WHEREAS, the Company is a holding company, primarily engaged, through its subsidiaries, in the business of obtaining funds in the form of deposits and wholesale borrowings and investing those funds in single-family mortgages and other types of loans;
WHEREAS, the Company operates Flagstar Bank FSB (the “Bank”) with its corporate headquarters located in Troy, Michigan; 
WHEREAS, the Company and the Bank are highly regulated and this Separation and Release Agreement is subject to receipt of regulatory approvals and compliance with applicable legal requirements, including the regulations promulgated under the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008, as amended and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation's regulations codified at 12 C.F.R. § 359.2;
WHEREAS, Executive has been serving as the Company's and the Bank's President, their Chief Executive Officer, the Chairman of their Boards of Directors and as their Director pursuant to that certain Employment Agreement between the Parties entered into as of September 30, 2009 (the “Employment Agreement”);
WHEREAS, Executive and the Company have determined that it is in the mutual best interests of each respective Party that Executive's relationship with the Company pursuant to the Employment Agreement be concluded; 
WHEREAS, on October 1, 2012 Executive resigned as President of the Company and the Bank and as the Chairman of the Boards of Directors of the Company and the Bank, effective that date and as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the Bank and as a Director of the Company and the Bank, effective November 1, 2012; 
WHEREAS, the terms and conditions of the Employment Agreement are terminated effective as of November 1, 2012 (the “Separation Date”), except for those provisions specified herein which shall survive such termination;
WHEREAS, after the Effective Date of this Agreement, as defined elsewhere herein, the terms and conditions of Executive's working relationship with the Company shall be that of an independent contractor pursuant to a separate Consulting Agreement to be entered into between the Parties as provided herein; and 
WHEREAS, the Parties desire to eliminate the potential for any dispute or controversy between Executive and the Company and/or the Bank relating to Executive's employment and his separation from employment. 
NOW, THEREFORE, in order fully and finally to settle all disputes, differences, claims and/or other matters among the Company, the Bank and Executive, for the mutual consideration set forth herein, the parties hereby agree to the following terms and conditions: 
		
	1.
	Wages.  As soon as practicable following the Separation Date, and regardless of whether Executive executes this Agreement, the Company shall pay Executive in a lump sum all wages earned by Executive through the Separation Date but not previously paid. 




		
	2.
	Unreimbursed Business Expenses and Legal Fees.  




(a) Executive shall be reimbursed for his unreimbursed business expenses within fifteen (15) days of his request for reimbursement; provided that Executive submits appropriate supporting documentation, in accordance with applicable Company policy, to the Company's Human Resources Department no later than December 1, 2012. 









(b) The Company shall pay Executive's reasonable expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred in connection with negotiating and drafting this Agreement and the Consulting Agreement referred to in Paragraph 6 of this Agreement, and related matters, within fifteen (15) days after his request for such payment; provided that Executive submits appropriate supporting documentation of such expenses to the Company's Human Resources Department no later than December 30, 2012.
		
	3.
	Supplemental Retirement Pension.  Section 1.06 Supplemental Retirement Pension of the Employment Agreement shall survive the termination of the Employment Agreement; provided, however, that, except as provided below, said Section 1.06 shall be amended as set forth in this Section 3., such amendments to be effective immediately prior to the Separation Date.  The Company has determined that is in its best interests to terminate and liquidate the deferred compensation arrangement (the “Plan”) providing for the Supplemental Retirement Benefit (as that term is defined in Section 1.06 of the Employment Agreement) since doing so will enable the Company to eliminate a significant liability at a substantial discount.  The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to seek and obtain approval from all appropriate regulatory authorities to accelerate payment to Executive of the Supplemental Retirement Benefit, to which Executive has a vested right and for which the Company has previously recognized compensation expense, accrued a liability for the payment in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) or segregated or otherwise set aside assets in a trust which may only be used to pay Plan benefits, and the amount of the accelerated payment of the Supplemental Retirement Benefit will not be in excess of the accrued liability computed in accordance with GAAP.  Subject to (i) receipt of such approval which shall not contain any prohibition against the Company taking such action as contemplated in this Section, (ii) the Company's determination that such actions will not violate any applicable laws, and (iii) the other provisions of this Section, the Company shall take such actions as are necessary to terminate and liquidate the Plan providing for the Supplemental Retirement Benefit in accordance with the provisions of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(ix)(C) as soon as practicable after the Effective Date, and the Company shall pay the Supplemental Retirement Benefit to Executive twelve (12) months and one (1) day following the completion of such termination and liquidation (the “Payment Date”).  Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in the Plan, but subject to the other provisions of this Section, the Company shall pay the Supplemental Retirement Benefit to Executive as a lump sum calculated as of the Payment Date in accordance with the methodology set forth in Section 1.06 of the Employment Agreement.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, it is the Parties' intent that the termination and liquidation of the Plan comply with the exception provided by Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(ix)(C) from the general prohibition on the acceleration of payments under plans that provide for the deferral of compensation for purposes of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the accelerated payment of the Supplemental Retirement Benefit as contemplated by this Section will not result in an increase in the amount that was payable to Executive under Section 1.06 Supplemental Retirement Pension of the Employment Agreement.  




Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Company is unable to obtain the necessary regulatory approvals to accelerate the payment to Executive of the Supplemental Retirement Benefit, then Section 1.06 Supplemental Retirement Pension of the Employment Agreement shall not be amended, and the Company will pay the Supplemental Retirement Benefit at the time and pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 1.06 of the Employment Agreement and subject to the terms and conditions of Sections 3.12, 4.01 and 4.02 of the Employment Agreement which Sections shall be deemed to have survived termination solely as they relate to the Supplemental Retirement Benefit and Section 1.06 of the Employment Agreement.  
		
	4.
	Employment Agreement.  Except as otherwise set forth herein, the Employment Agreement shall terminate in its entirety, including any provisions thereof which provide therein that they survive termination, as of the Separation Date.  Without limitation of any other provision of this Agreement providing for survival of specified portion(s) of the Employment Agreement, Section 3.03 of the Employment Agreement shall survive termination of the Employment Agreement.




		
	5.
	Cessation of Benefits.  Except as otherwise set forth herein, all employee benefits contained in the Employment Agreement shall cease as of the Separation Date; provided however, this provision shall not affect any vested rights Executive may have in any Company retirement or savings plans, including the Plan, in which Executive is participating as of the Effective Date of this Agreement.  Executive's current medical and dental benefits coverage, if any, shall end on the Separation Date.  Executive shall have the option to elect to continue his current Company medical insurance coverage pursuant to the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (“COBRA”).  Executive shall be notified of the procedures to access such coverage by separate correspondence.  Except as specifically set forth in this Agreement, Executive shall have no further right to any additional wages, bonuses, stock options, severance, commissions, vacation, paid-time-off or other paid leave, insurance, stock options, or any other type of compensation or benefits of any kind from the Company or the Bank.













		
	6.
	Consulting Agreement.  As of the Separation Date, the Company and Executive shall enter into that certain Consulting Agreement, attached hereto and incorporated herein for all purposes as Exhibit A.  In the event that Executive were to revoke this Agreement pursuant to Paragraph 33, the Consulting Agreement shall automatically become null and void.  




		
	7.
	Resignation from Positions.  Executive shall upon the request of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) provide such written instruments as the Board may request to evidence his resignation from all director and/or officer positions that Executive holds with the Company, the Bank or any of their subsidiaries or affiliates.




		
	8.
	Release and Waiver of Claims.  As of the date Executive executes this Agreement, in exchange for certain consideration provided by Company hereunder, consideration to which Executive acknowledges that he is not otherwise entitled, Executive hereby releases and discharges the Company, the Bank and all of their past and present parents, divisions, subsidiaries, affiliates, joint venture partners and related companies, and their respective past and present officers, directors, employees, partners, attorneys, investors, shareholders, representatives, agents, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Released Parties”) with respect to any and all claims, rights, demands, causes of action, obligations, damages or liabilities, whether asserted or unasserted, known or unknown, contingent or non-contingent, relating to his employment by the Company or the Bank or the termination of his employment or his service as a Director of the Company or the Bank,  that Executive had in the past or now has, against the Released Parties through the date Executive signs this Agreement.  Without limitation, this complete waiver and release includes any and all discrimination, compensation or other claims arising under Federal, State or local law or regulation including without limitation Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Civil Rights Act of 1991, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended by the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act (collectively, the “ADEA”), the Americans With Disabilities Act of 1990, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, the Civil Rights Act of 1866, and 42 U.S.C. §1981, and any amendments thereto or under common law, in contract, tort or other theories of recovery, relating in any way to the terms or conditions of Executive's employment with Company and/or the Bank, the termination of his employment and/or any incidents related thereto prior to the execution of this Agreement.  This release is intended to apply to any rights Executive may have under any Company and/or Bank Severance Policy or practice and any employment agreement that may exist between Executive and the Company and/or the Bank, including the Employment Agreement (e.g., any rights Executive may have under Section 1.05 Compensation. (c) Discretionary Shares ) except to the extent of any rights under the Employment Agreement that are not terminated by this Agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, this release shall not affect (a) any rights Executive may have in any Company or Bank retirement or savings plans, including the Plan, or any medical or dental or other welfare plan in which Executive is participating as of the Separation Date, (b) Executive's eligibility for indemnification in accordance with the Employment Agreement, the organizational documents of the Company and its subsidiaries, or applicable laws, or under any applicable insurance policy, with respect to any liability Executive incurred or incurs in his capacity as a director, officer or employee of the Company, the Bank or any affiliate of either or (c) any right Executive may have to obtain contribution as permitted by law in the event of entry of judgment against Executive as a result of any act or failure to act for which Executive and any of the Released Parties are jointly liable.  This release provision shall not release Executive's rights under this Agreement.




		
	9.
	Covenant Not To Sue.  From the date of Executive's execution of this Agreement forward, Executive shall not institute any actions or lawsuits, or otherwise assert or attempt to assert any claim against the Released Parties with respect to any released claim pursuant to Paragraph 8 above relating to his employment by the Company or the Bank or the termination of his employment or his service as a Director.  Nevertheless, nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit Executive from initiating or participating in a proceeding before any State or Federal agency involving the Released Parties, provided that Executive waives any monetary benefits or other relief against the Released Parties resulting or arising from any such proceeding.  




		
	10.
	Release of Age Claims.  Executive understands that the release set forth in Paragraph 8 above includes a release and waiver of any claims Executive may have under the ADEA against the Released Parties prior to and including the date Executive executes this Agreement.  Executive understands that the ADEA is a federal statute that prohibits discrimination on the basis of age in employment, benefits and benefit plans.  Executive acknowledges that he has been given a reasonable period of time to consider this Agreement and the release paragraph.  Executive further understand that by signing this Agreement Executive - on behalf of himself, his family, assigns, representatives, agents, estate, heirs, beneficiaries, executors, administrators, successors, and/or attorneys, if any - are in fact waiving, releasing and forever giving up any claim under the ADEA (subject to the revocation period set forth in Paragraph 33 below) that may have existed on or prior to the date upon which Executive executes this release.  Executive acknowledge that the benefits to be provided to Executive pursuant to this Agreement exceed anything of value to which Executive would otherwise be entitled, if Executive did not execute this Agreement. 













		
	11.
	Waiver of Known and Unknown Claims.  Executive expressly acknowledges that the release of claims (as set forth in Paragraphs 8 and 10 above) is intended to include all claims of any kind relating to his employment by the Company or the Bank or the termination of his employment or service as a Director of the Company or the Bank, including those that Executive does not know or suspect to exist in his favor, through the date Executive signs this Agreement.




		
	12.
	No Admission of Liability or Unlawful Conduct.  Neither this Agreement, nor the furnishing of the consideration pursuant to this Agreement, shall be deemed or construed at any time for any purpose as an admission by the Company, the Released Parties or Executive regarding any liability or unlawful conduct of any kind.




		
	13.
	Return of the Company', the Bank's and/or Released Parties' Materials and Property.  Executive represents that upon the Company's request, he shall return to the Company all documents, laptops, cell phones, equipment, keys, files, memoranda, records, credit cards, and other physical or personal property belonging to any of the Released Parties, including but not limited those belonging to the Company and/or the Bank.  Executive shall also provide the Company with all passwords which Executive has created and/or utilized to password protect any and all files on Company or Bank equipment.

Further, the Company and the Bank shall not, and shall instruct their directors and senior officers not to, make any public statement of any kind about Executive after the date hereof.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Section shall not be deemed to prohibit any disclosure or testimony required by any applicable law. 




		
	15.
	Confidentiality.  Executive shall continue to abide by the Company's and the Bank's confidentiality policies and any agreement(s) regarding confidentiality that Executive has with the Company and/or the Bank.  Further, Executive acknowledges that, during his employment, the Company and the Bank provided Executive with information that they respectively considered Confidential Information, as defined below.  All proprietary, confidential and trade secret information of the Company and its affiliates, including but not limited to the following, shall constitute “Confidential Information”: the database of customer accounts; customer, supplier and distributor lists; customer profiles; information regarding sales and marketing activities and strategies; trade secrets; data regarding technology, products and services; information regarding pricing, pricing techniques and procurement; financial data and forecasts regarding the Company and customers, suppliers and distributors of the Company; software programs and intellectual property.  All Confidential Information shall be and remain the sole property of the Company and its assigns, and the Company shall be and remain the sole owner of all patents, copyrights, trademarks, names and other rights in connection therewith and without regard to whether the Company was at any particular time developing or marketing the same.  Executive acknowledges that the Confidential Information is a valuable, special and unique asset of the Company and that his access to and knowledge of the Confidential Information was essential to the performance of his duties as an executive with the Company and the Bank.  In light of the competitive nature of the business in which the Company is engaged, Executive shall maintain the strict confidentiality of all Confidential Information known or obtained by him or to which he had access in connection with his engagement by the Company and that, other than in connection with his performance of his duties on behalf of the Company, he shall not, without prior written consent of the Company's Board of Directors for and on behalf of the Company, (i) disclose any Confidential Information to any person or entity or (ii) make any use of any Confidential Information for his own purposes or for direct or indirect benefit of any person or entity other than the Company. Confidential Information shall not be deemed to include (a) information which becomes generally available to the public through no fault of Executive, (b) information which was previously known by Executive prior to his receipt of such information from the Company, (c) information which becomes available to Executive on a non-confidential basis from a source which, to Executive's knowledge, is not prohibited from disclosing such information by legal, contractual or fiduciary obligation to the Company or (d) information which is required to be disclosed in order to comply with any applicable law or court order.  Executive shall take all reasonable measures to protect the secrecy of and avoid disclosure and unauthorized use of the Confidential Information and shall immediately notify the Company in the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure of the Confidential Information.  This provision shall survive the termination of Executive's employment relationship. 




Further, Executive represents and warrants that as of the Separation Date he has not violated the Employment Agreement's Sections 2.01 Confidentiality, 2.02 No Solicitation of Employees, 2.03 No Solicitation of Customers or 2.04 Non-Competition.









		
	16.
	No Authority.  As of the Separation Date, Executive shall have no authority to obligate the Company or the Bank in any manner, and shall not enter into any contracts on the Company's or the Bank's behalf.  Executive  shall not make any representation, warranty, or other statement, or take any action, that may be construed by a third party to indicate that Executive has authority to obligate the Company or the Bank or to enter into a contract on the Company's or the Bank's behalf.




		
	17.
	Section 409A.  The parties intend that this Agreement shall comply with Section 409A of the Code to the extent of any provisions subject thereto and this Agreement shall be interpreted consistently with such intent.  If any provision of this Agreement (or of any award of compensation) would cause Executive  to incur any additional tax or interest under Section 409A of the Code or any regulations or Treasury guidance promulgated thereunder, the Company and Executive shall endeavor to reform such provision; provided that they will (a) maintain, to the maximum extent practicable, the original intent of the applicable provision without violating the provisions of Section 409A of the Code and (b) the  Company shall notify and consult with Executive regarding such proposed amendments or modifications as soon as practicable after it becomes aware of the need for any such change.  To the end of ensuring compliance with Section 409A, the Company and Executive agree that the references in Section 4.01 of the Employment Agreement to “termination of employment” and similar terms are and have at all times been construed to mean “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A, and the Company agrees that it satisfies the conditions in Internal Revenue Service Notice 2010-6, Section (IV)(B) for adopting this construction.  Further, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, to the extent required by Section 409A: (a) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement or to be provided as an in-kind benefit under this Agreement during a calendar year may not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement or to be provided as an in-kind benefit in any other calendar year; (b) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits under this Agreement shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit; (c) no reimbursement under this Agreement shall be made later than the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the expense was incurred; and (d) the expenses to be reimbursed must have been incurred on before the date of execution of this Agreement.




		
	18.
	Injunctive Relief.  Executive acknowledges that the Company and/or the Bank shall suffer irreparable injury, if Executive breaches any of his obligations under this Agreement including but not limited to the provisions concerning Confidential Information, the loss of which cannot reasonably or adequately be compensated in damages in action of law.  Accordingly, in addition to any other remedies available, the Company shall be entitled to injunctive relief against any breach or prospective breach of Executive's obligations under this Agreement, without the necessity of posting a bond.




		
	19.
	Remedies.  Any material breach by either Party of the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement (which breach is not cured to the reasonable satisfaction of the non-breaching Party within ten (10) days after delivery by the non-breaching Party of notice to the breaching Party specifying the nature of such breach in reasonable detail) shall give the non-breaching Party the right to discontinue the performance of any unperformed duties and obligations under this Agreement to the extent permitted by applicable law, and shall entitle the non-breaching Party to legal, injunctive, or other equitable relief on account of such breach.




		
	20.
	Waiver.  If either Party breaches any term of the Agreement, any delay by the other Party to enforce the Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver or acceptance.  No waiver shall bind a Party unless supported by consideration, executed in writing, and delivered to the other Party by an authorized Company officer in the case of the Company, or in the case of Executive by Executive or an authorized representative.




		
	21.
	Confidentiality of Agreement.  The terms of this Agreement shall be confidential to the extent allowed by applicable law.  Unless and until this Agreement is made public by the Company, Executive shall not disclose its terms to anyone other than any tax authority or his spouse, attorney, accountant or tax advisor, without the Company's prior written approval.  Executive shall notify his spouse, attorney, accountant and tax advisor of the confidential nature of this Agreement.  The foregoing notwithstanding, Executive may provide prospective employers with a copy of Section 7. Confidentiality and Non-Solicitation of the Consulting Agreement for the purpose of notifying such prospective employers of Executive's obligations thereunder.




		
	22.
	Controlling Law and Venue.  THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REFERENCE TO NEW YORK'S CONFLICT OF LAW RULES.  VENUE FOR DETERMINATION OF ANY DISPUTE ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL LIE EXCLUSIVELY IN NEW YORK COUNTY, NEW YORK.




		
	23.
	Severability.  If for any reason any provision of this Agreement is determined to be invalid, unenforceable or contrary to any existing or future law to any extent, such provision shall be enforced to the extent permissible under the law and 











such invalidity, unenforceability or illegality shall not impair the operation of or otherwise affect those portions of this Agreement which are valid, enforceable and legal.


		
	24.
	Tax Implications.  Executive acknowledges that none of the Company's, the Bank's or their attorneys has made any representations or promises with respect to the tax treatment of any consideration paid in accordance with this Agreement.

FLAGSTAR BANCORP, INC.
2006 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN




RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT


This Restricted Stock Award Agreement (this “Agreement”) is effective as of November 1, 2012 (the “Grant Date”) by and between Flagstar Bancorp, Inc., a Michigan corporation (the “Company”) and Joseph P. Campanelli (the “Grantee” or “you”).
Whereas, the Company sponsors and maintains the Flagstar Bancorp, Inc. 2006 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”); and
Whereas, the Grantee, as an Eligible Person, has been selected by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Compensation Committee”) to receive a grant of Restricted Stock under the Plan;
Now, therefore, the Company and the Grantee hereby agree as follows: 
Section 1. General. This Agreement and the Restricted Stock granted hereunder are subject in all respects to the terms and conditions of the Plan.  The Grantee shall have no direct or secured claim in any specific assets of the Company or any stock which may be issued to Grantee hereunder and will have the status of a general unsecured creditor of the Company.  Capitalized terms used in this Agreement without further definition shall have the same meanings given to such terms in the Plan.


Section 2. Grant of Restricted Stock.  The Company hereby awards to the Grantee, as of the Grant Date, __________ shares of Restricted Stock corresponding to shares of the Company common stock, $0.01 par value (the “Common Stock”).  


Section 3. Vesting.  The Restricted Stock awards granted by the Company hereunder shall vest upon the Company's determination that the “Performance Goals” described in Exhibit C to the Consulting Agreement between the Company and the Grantee effective as of November 1, 2012 have been satisfied, provided that you have been in continuous service for the Company as a consultant at all times from the Grant Date until the satisfaction of the Performance Goals.   If your service as a consultant is voluntarily or involuntarily terminated for any reason prior to the vesting date of all of your Restricted Stock, your unvested Restricted Stock shall be forfeited in accordance with the Plan.


Section 4. Withholding Taxes.  Based on current tax laws, you will not be taxed on your Restricted Stock until it vests.  At the time of vesting, the Company will treat the Fair Market Value (as defined in the Plan) of the vested Restricted Stock as compensation taxable to you as ordinary income, unless you have made an 83(b) election, as described below.  The Fair Market Value will be determined in accordance with the terms of the Plan. 


Grantee acknowledges and accepts that the award of Restricted Stock grants hereunder may result in application of the Alternate Minimum Tax and that estate and/or other taxes may apply with respect to the award of Restricted Stock grants hereunder in the event of Grantee's death.  Grantee understands he or she should seek tax advice regarding this award and any shares issuable hereunder. 
You may make an election under Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) to include in your gross income in the year of this award the amount specified in Section 83(b) of the Code.  If you make such an election, you must notify the Company in writing within 10 days after filing the notice of the election with the Internal Revenue Service, in addition to any filing and notification required pursuant to regulations issued under Section 83(b) of the Code.
You acknowledge that it is your sole responsibility and not the Company's to timely file the election under Section 83(b) of the Code, even if you request the Company or its representatives to make this filing on your behalf.
Before any Restricted Stock may be delivered to you, you must satisfy your obligation for federal, state and local tax withholding on the Restricted Stock (the Restricted Withholding), if any.  You hereby irrevocably elect to satisfy any such obligation by allowing the Company to withhold an amount of Restricted Stock from this award having a value equal to the amount required to be withheld.  The value of the Restricted Stock to be withheld shall be based on the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined.  If you make an election under Section 83(b) of the Code, you must remit to the Company an amount sufficient to satisfy all Restricted Withholding at the time of your election.  Your failure to timely submit the Restricted Withholding may result in forfeiture of your Restricted Stock.









Subject to your obligation to remit an amount sufficient to satisfy all Restricted Withholding, if any, if you make an election under Section 83(b) of the Code, you hereby acknowledge and agree that you are responsible for determining your tax obligations as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
Section 5. Issuance of Shares.  The Restricted Stock shall be held in escrow by the Secretary of the Company until such time as the shares of Restricted Stock vest or are forfeited.  Upon the vesting of such Restricted Stock and the satisfaction of the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company will deliver shares of stock net of applicable taxes, if any, to Grantee.


Section 6. Rights While Shares Are Restricted.  While your Restricted Stock remains unvested, you will not be entitled to any dividends paid on the Restricted Stock or to any voting rights. 


Section 7. Non‐Transferability of Restricted Stock Grants.  Until the date your shares of Restricted Stock become vested, you may not assign or otherwise transfer the Restricted Stock except as provided in the Plan.  Once your shares of Restricted Stock vest, you may not be able to immediately sell your shares depending on securities laws.  Any inability to sell or transfer the Restricted Stock will not relieve you of the obligation to pay any required withholding taxes at the time of vesting (see discussion above under “Withholding Taxes”).


Section 8. Miscellaneous Provisions.


		
	a.
	No Retention Rights.  Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon the Grantee any right to continue in the service of the Company for any period of specific duration or interfere with or otherwise restrict in any way the rights of the Company or of the Grantee, which rights are hereby expressly reserved by each, to terminate his or her service at any time and for any reason, with or without cause.

In the event of any other change in the Common Stock, the Compensation Committee shall in its sole discretion determine whether such change equitably requires a change in the number or type of shares of stock granted hereunder and any adjustment made by the Compensation Committee shall be conclusive, final and binding.

The Compensation Committee may correct any defect or supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan or in this Agreement in the manner and to the extent it shall deem necessary or desirable to carry it into effect.

	g.
	Choice of Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Michigan, as such laws are applied to contracts entered into and performed in such State, without giving effect to the choice of law provisions thereof.
