Either Party’s failure to enforce any provision of this Agreement shall not in any way be construed as a waiver

both parties hereunder are cumulative and shall not constitute a waiver of either party’s right to assert any other legal
remedy available to it.

 

D.       Severability.
Should any provision of this Agreement be found to be illegal or unenforceable, the other provisions shall nevertheless
remain effective and shall remain enforceable to the greatest extent permitted by law.

 NOW
THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth, the parties agree as follows:

any Affiliate (as applicable) may at any time terminate the Participant, free from any liability or claim under the Plan or this Agreement, except as otherwise expressly provided herein. 

7. Transferability. 

(a) Shares of Restricted Stock may not, at any time prior to becoming vested pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, be
Transferred and any such purported Transfer shall be void and unenforceable against the Company or any Affiliate; provided that the designation of a beneficiary shall not constitute an assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale,
transfer or encumbrance.

respect to the verb form, all conjugations thereof within their correlative meanings) with respect to any security, the gift, sale, assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation or other disposition (whether for or without consideration, whether

designate in writing to the other. Any such notice shall be deemed effective upon receipt thereof by the addressee. 
 10.

11. Restricted Stock Subject to Plan. By entering into this Agreement, the Participant agrees and acknowledges that the
Participant has received and read a copy of the Plan. Shares of Restricted Stock granted hereunder are subject to the Plan. The terms and provisions of the Plan, as it may be amended from time to time, are hereby incorporated herein by reference. In
the event of a conflict between any term or provision contained herein and a term or provision of the Plan, the applicable terms and provisions of the Plan will govern and prevail. 

12.    Signature in Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in counterparts, each of which shall
be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument.
