Provisions.  The Committee shall have the authority to the
full extent provided under the terms of the 2005 Plan to interpret all terms of
the 2005 Plan and this Award, and to otherwise supervise the implementation of

Company’s financial statements which reflect that the Annual Profit for that
Year meets or exceeds the applicable Performance Target and (ii) the
Committee certifies the attainment of the applicable Performance Target.

 

5.             Change in Control. 
If a Change in Control occurs prior to the time at which all of the
Performance Shares have been delivered to the Holder, the Company shall deliver
all such undelivered Performance Shares to the Holder immediately prior to the
closing of such Change in Control transaction.

 

6.             Withholding. 
On each date on which Performance Shares are delivered, the Holder shall
be required to pay to the Company, in cash, the amount which the Company
reasonably determines to be necessary in order for the Company to comply with
applicable federal or state income tax withholding requirements and the
collection of employment taxes; provided that the Holder may elect to offset
the amount the Company reasonably determines as necessary to comply with
applicable tax requirements from the Performance Shares otherwise deliverable
to the Holder (valued at their Fair Market Value on the applicable date) and a
net number of Performance Shares shall thereafter be delivered to the Holder.

 

7.             Status of the Holder With
Respect to Shares.  The Holder shall have no
rights, powers or privileges with respect to the Performance Shares until such
Performance Shares are delivered to the Holder.

 

8.             Representations and Warranties. 
As a condition to the delivery of the Performance Shares, the Board may
obtain such agreements or undertakings, if any, as the Board may deem necessary
or advisable to assure compliance with any law or regulation including, but not
limited to, the following:

 

(a)           a representation, warranty or
agreement by the Holder to the Company that he is acquiring the Performance
Shares for investment and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with,
the distribution of any such Performance Shares; and

 

(b)           a representation, warranty or
agreement to be bound by any legends that are, in the opinion of the Board,
necessary or appropriate to comply with the provisions of any securities law
deemed by the Board to be applicable to the issuance of the Performance Shares
and are endorsed upon the Share certificates.

 

9.             Termination of the Award. 
Without limitation, this Award shall automatically terminate and expire
on the earlier of (i) the first date in 2011 on which either (A) all
Performance Shares have been delivered or (B) the Committee determines
that the Performance Target for Year 2010 has not been attained, or (ii) the
date of the Holder’s Separation, and upon the date of such termination of the
Award all Performance Shares which have not been delivered on or prior to such
date will be permanently forfeited.

 

10.          Shareholder Approval of 2008 Plan. 
This Award
is subject to approval of the 2008 Plan by a majority of the Company’s
stockholders; provided, however, that if the 2008 Plan is not so approved by December 31,
2008, this Award shall terminate and be null and void ab initio; and provided,
further, that no Performance Shares shall be delivered prior to such
stockholder approval.

unenforceable or void, in whole or in part, the remainder of this Award will
not be affected by such declaration or finding and each such provision not so
affected will be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.

 

16.          Counterparts.  This Award may be executed in several
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which
together will constitute one and the same instrument.
