Words used herein with initial capitalized letters that are not defined in this Award are defined in the Plan.
The terms provided herein are applicable to this Award.  Different terms may apply to any prior or future awards under the Plan (or a predecessor plan).  To the extent that there is a conflict between the terms of this Award and the Plan, the terms of the Plan shall govern.
I.ACCEPTANCE OF AWARD

By electronically accepting this Award according to the instructions provided by the Company’s designated broker, you agree that this electronic contract contains your electronic signature, which you have executed with the intent to sign this Award, and that this Award is granted under and governed by the terms and conditions of the Plan, this Award, and the applicable provisions (if any) contained in a written employment agreement between the Company or a Subsidiary and you.  You hereby agree to accept as binding, conclusive and final all decisions or interpretations of the Committee or its delegate on questions relating to the Plan, this Award, and, solely in so far as they relate to this Award, the applicable provisions (if any) contained in a written employment agreement between the Company or a Subsidiary and you.
			
	

II.GRANT OF RESTRICTED STOCK
Effective as of the Date of Grant, the Company has granted to you an Award of Restricted Stock.  Each share of Restricted Stock is one share of the Company’s Common Stock subject to the Restricted Period and Vesting Schedule set forth above and the vesting and forfeiture conditions described below.
III.VESTING AND FORFEITURE
This Award is subject to forfeiture during the Restricted Period and will vest according to the Vesting Schedule set forth above and this Section III.  If your employment or service as an Employee or Director of the Company or Subsidiary, as applicable, terminates for any reason (except as otherwise provided for in the Plan or below), then all of the Restricted Stock that remains subject to forfeiture restrictions at such time shall be cancelled and forfeited.  This means that the Restricted Stock will immediately revert to the Company.  You will receive no payment for shares of Restricted Stock that are forfeited.  The lapse of forfeiture restrictions means that the Common Stock subject to the Award shall vest and, thereafter, be fully transferable by you, subject to compliance with Sections IX and XI of this Award and the terms of the Plan.  Until the lapse of such forfeiture restrictions you may not sell, transfer, pledge or otherwise dispose of the shares of Common Stock subject to this Award.  
The shares of Restricted Stock will also vest in their entirety as of the occurrence of any of the following events.
A.Death or Disability
If your employment or service as an Employee, Consultant or Director of the Company or a Subsidiary, as applicable, terminates due to your death or Disability before the shares of Restricted Stock have become fully vested in accordance with the Vesting Schedule, the forfeiture restrictions on this Award shall lapse and all unvested shares of Restricted Stock shall vest.
For purposes of this Award, “Disability” means a physical or mental impairment sufficient to make the Grantee who is an Employee eligible for benefits under the Company’s or Subsidiary’s long-term disability plan in which the Grantee is a participant.  A Grantee who is a Director or Consultant shall be treated as having a Disability if a physical or mental impairment would have made the Director or Consultant eligible for benefits under the Company’s or Subsidiary’s long-term disability plan had the Director or Consultant been an Employee.
B.Change of Control
If your employment or service as an Employee, Consultant or Director of the Company or a Subsidiary, as applicable, is terminated by the Company without Cause or by you for Good Reason within two (2) years following a Change of Control (or on the date of the Change of Control), the forfeiture restrictions on this Award shall lapse, all unvested shares of Restricted Stock shall vest, and the provisions of Article XIII of the Plan shall apply.
IV.LEAVES OF ABSENCE
For purposes of this Award, your employment or service as an Employee, Consultant, or Director, as applicable, does not terminate when you go on a leave of absence recognized under the Plan.  Your employment or service will terminate when the leave of absence ends, however, unless you immediately return to active employment or service in the applicable capacity.
2

V.PAYMENT FOR SHARES
There is no exercise price or other payment required from you in exchange for this Award.
VI.STOCK CERTIFICATES
The Restricted Stock, or any part thereof, may be represented by certificates or may be notated in the form of uncertificated shares.  The rights and obligations of the holder of shares represented by a certificate and the rights and obligations of the holder of uncertificated shares of the same class and series shall be identical.  Until vested and issued, shares underlying this Award will be held for you by the Company.  At the end of the Restricted Period, the shares of Common Stock will be released to you in the form of a stock certificate or uncertificated shares.
VII.SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS
You may vote your Restricted Stock.  If your Restricted Stock vests, you will receive any dividends paid with respect to your Restricted Stock during the Restricted Period.  For clarity, you will not receive any dividends on shares of Restricted Stock that do not vest and any dividends relating to shares of Restricted Stock that vests will be retained by the Company and will only be paid if and when the Restricted Stock vests.
VIII.RESTRICTIONS ON RESALE
You may not sell any shares of Common Stock free from the forfeiture restrictions of this Award at a time when applicable laws or Company policies would prohibit a sale.  This restriction will apply as long as you are an Employee, Consultant, or Director, as applicable.
IX.TRANSFER OF RESTRICTED STOCK
The Restricted Stock subject to this Award may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of or otherwise encumbered except in accordance with Section 12.8 of the Plan.  Any attempt at such disposition shall be void.
X.WITHHOLDING TAXES
No shares of Common Stock will vest and become transferrable unless you have made arrangements, acceptable to the Company, to pay any withholding taxes that may be due. Unless determined otherwise by the Committee, applicable tax withholding obligations not satisfied by you in cash shall be satisfied by returning to the Company from the shares of Common Stock that would otherwise vest a number of such shares with a Fair Market Value equal to such withholding obligation, but in no event exceeding the maximum statutory tax rates of your applicable jurisdiction (or such other rate as would not trigger a negative accounting impact). The Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock retained by the Company or surrendered by you shall be determined in accordance with the Plan as of the date the tax obligation arises.
XI.ADJUSTMENTS
As described more fully in Section 11.2 of the Plan, in the event of a stock split, a stock dividend and certain other events or transactions affecting the Common Stock, the number of shares of Restricted Stock underlying this Award may be adjusted.

You hereby consent to receive such documents delivered electronically or to retrieve such documents furnished electronically, as applicable, and agree to participate in the Plan through any online or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or another third party designated by the Company.
XIII.NO RIGHT TO CONTINUED SERVICE
This Award does not give you the right to continue in employment or service with the Company or Subsidiary in any capacity.  The Company or Subsidiary reserves the right to terminate your employment or service at any time, with or without cause, subject to any employment agreement or other contract.  In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Award and an employment agreement, if any, the terms of the employment agreement control.

VI.EXERCISE
The Award, or a portion thereof, shall be exercisable during the period beginning on the applicable vesting date and ending on the Expiration Date, subject to earlier termination in the event of a termination of your employment or service as a Director or Consultant under certain circumstances, as provided in Section IV.  You may exercise your vested Award by providing notice of exercise to the Company, in a form and manner acceptable to the Company.
VII.PAYMENT
When you exercise your Options, you may pay the Option Price in cash, by check, with previously issued shares of Common Stock of the Company (under certain circumstances), in accordance with a “cashless exercise program” or with a combination of the foregoing.
VIII.NATURE OF STOCK OPTIONS
A stock option is the right, subject to certain conditions, to purchase shares of Common Stock of the Company at a fixed price.  The per share price at which shares of Common Stock may be purchased when this Award is exercised is referred to as the Option Price.  The Option Price is fixed on the Date of Grant and, except as provided in Section 11.2 of the Plan, does not change for the life of the Option.  However, the market price of Common Stock of the Company changes and will ultimately determine the value, if any, from this Award.  
IX.SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS
You are not and do not have the rights of a shareholder of the Company with respect to any shares of Common Stock underlying this Award unless and until the Award vests, you have exercised the Options, or a portion thereof, and shares of Common Stock underlying the Award have been issued and

XII.WITHHOLDING TAXES
No shares of Common Stock will be released or issued to you unless you have made arrangements, acceptable to the Company, to pay any withholding taxes that may be due. Unless determined otherwise by the Committee, applicable tax withholding obligations not satisfied by you in cash shall be satisfied by having the Company withhold from the number of shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable or deliverable pursuant to the exercise of the Award a number of such shares with a Fair Market Value equal to such withholding obligation, but in no event exceeding the maximum statutory tax rates of your applicable jurisdiction (or such other rate as would not trigger a negative accounting impact). The Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock retained by the Company or surrendered by you shall be determined in accordance with the Plan as of the date the tax obligation arises. THE TAX RULES APPLICABLE TO NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTIONS ARE COMPLEX.  YOU SHOULD CONSULT WITH YOUR FINANCIAL ADVISOR FOR MORE INFORMATION.
XIII.ADJUSTMENTS
As described more fully in Section 11.2 of the Plan, in the event of a stock split, a stock dividend and certain other events or transactions affecting the Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock underlying this Award and the exercise price of this Option may be adjusted.
XIV.ELECTRONIC DELIVERY AND DISCLOSURE
