AMENDED AND RESTATED

2005 EQUITY AND PERFORMANCE INCENTIVE PLAN

NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTOR RESTRICTED SHARE UNIT AGREEMENT

 

THIS RESTRICTED SHARE UNIT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of _______________, 20___, is entered into between International Coal Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and __________________________ (“Grantee”).  Capitalized terms used herein but not defined shall have the meanings assigned to those terms in the Company’s Amended and Restated 2005 Equity and Performance Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Plan”).

 

WITNESSETH:

 

A. The Plan provides for grants of Restricted Share Units to Non-Employee Directors of the Company; and

 

B. Grantee is a Non-Employee Director of the Company; and

 

C. The execution of this Agreement in the form hereof has been authorized by the Board.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of these premises and the covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement, the Company and Grantee agree as follows:

 

1. Grant of Restricted Share Units.  Subject to and upon the terms, conditions, and restrictions set forth in this Agreement and in the Plan, the Company hereby grants to the Grantee __________ Restricted Share Units (the “Grant”).  This Agreement constitutes an “Evidence of Award” under the Plan.

 

2. Date of Grant.  The effective date of the grant of the Restricted Share Units is ________ (the “Date of Grant”).

 

3. Restrictions on Transfer of Restricted Share Units.  Other than as provided herein, neither the Restricted Share Units granted hereby nor any interest therein shall be transferable other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

 

4. Vesting of Restricted Share Units.  Subject to Section ‎5 hereof, the Restricted Share Units shall be fully vested on the Date of Grant; provided, however,  that the certificates representing the Common Shares subject to the Grant shall not be delivered to Grantee until the six-month anniversary of the date on which Grantee ceases to provide services to the Company as a Non-Employee Director of the Company.

 

5. Forfeiture of Restricted Share Units.  Notwithstanding any provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, if Grantee violates the terms and conditions contained in Section ‎9, Grantee will forfeit the Grant (including the vested Restricted Share Units).

 

  

  

  

6. Payment of Restricted Share Unit.  The restrictions on transfer on the Restricted Share Units imposed by Section ‎3 shall lapse and the shares of Common Stock underlying the Restricted Share Units shall be transferred to the Grantee (or to the Grantee’s estate as the case may be), except as otherwise provided in Section ‎8, upon the six-month anniversary of the date on which Grantee ceases to provide services to the Company as a Non-Employee Director of the Company; provided, however, that if at the time a payment or settlement would otherwise be due under this Section ‎6, the Grantee is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code (determined in accordance with methodology and procedures adopted by the Company and then in effect) and the payment is considered deferred compensation within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, such payment shall instead be made on the first day after the sixth month following the month in which the payment was initially due to be made.

 

7. Dividend, Voting and Other Rights.  The Grantee shall have no rights of ownership in the Restricted Share Units and shall have no voting rights with respect to such Restricted Share Units until the date on which the shares of Common Stock are transferred to the Grantee pursuant to Section ‎6 above.  From and after the Date of Grant and until the earlier of (a) the time when the Grantee receives the shares of Common Stock underlying the Restricted Share Units in accordance with Section ‎6 or (b) the time when the Grantee’s right to receive the Restricted Share Units is forfeited in accordance with Section ‎5 hereof, the Company shall pay to the Grantee whenever a normal cash dividend is paid on shares of Common Stock, an amount of cash equal to the product of the per-share amount of the dividend paid times the number of such Restricted Share Units.  Such payment shall be made within 30 days after the corresponding dividend payment is made to the stockholders of the Company.

 

8. Retention of Common Stock by the Company.  During the period in which the restrictions on transfer and risk of forfeiture provided in Sections ‎3, ‎4 and ‎5 above are in effect, the certificates representing the Common Shares covered by the Grant shall be retained by the Company.  To the extent the issuance of the Common Stock is recorded in a book-entry system, appropriate notations shall be made to reflect the restrictions on transfer and risk of forfeiture.  At such time as the Restricted Share Units become payable as specified in Section ‎4, the Company shall deliver all certificates representing such payable shares of Common Stock to the Grantee or remove the restrictions from the book-entry system, except in the event that the Grantee has notified the Company of his or her election to satisfy any tax obligations by surrender of a portion of such Common Shares, the Company will deliver the certificates or adjust the book-entry representing the remaining balance of Common Shares after the amount necessary for such taxes has been deducted.

 

  

  

  

9. Confidentiality; Non-Disparagement.  Grantee, both during the term hereof and thereafter, will not, directly or indirectly, use for himself or use for, or disclose to, any party other than the Company, any secret or confidential information or data regarding the business of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any secret or confidential information or data regarding the business or property of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or regarding any secret or confidential apparatus, process, system or other method at any time use, developed or investigated by or for the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, whether or not developed, acquired, discovered or investigated by Grantee. Upon the date Grantee ceases to provide services to the Company, or as soon thereafter as possible, Grantee shall promptly deliver to the Company all memoranda, notes, records, plats, sketches, plans or other documents made by, compiled by, delivered to, or otherwise acquired by Grantee concerning the business or properties of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any secret or confidential product, apparatus or process used, developed, acquired or investigated by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

 

Grantee agrees that Grantee will not make any statements, whether oral, written, telephonic, electronic, or by or in any other method or in any other format, that in any way disparage, damage, or undermine the character or reputation of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any member of management thereof; provided, however, that Grantee may make such statements as are necessary to comply with law.  The Company may resort to a court of equity to enforce this Section ‎9 by injunctive relief.  In the event of a breach or threatened breach of this Section ‎9 by Grantee, the Company may withhold the Grant (including any vested Restricted Share Units) under this Agreement pending the outcome of litigation and/or arbitration regarding such alleged breach of this Agreement by Grantee.  Grantee agrees that the Company may enforce this Section ‎9 without posting a bond and without giving notice to the maximum extent permitted by law.

 

10. Compliance with Law.  The Company shall make reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable federal and state securities laws; provided, however, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company shall not be obligated to issue any shares of Common Stock or other securities pursuant to this Agreement if the issuance thereof would, in the reasonable opinion of the Company, result in a violation of any such law.  In such case, the Company shall comply with Treasury Regulation section 1.409A-2(b)(7)(ii).

 

11. Compliance with Section 409A of the Code.  To the extent applicable, it is intended that this Agreement and the Plan comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code, so that the income inclusion provisions of Section 409A(a)(1) do not apply to Grantee.  This Agreement and the Plan shall be administered in a manner consistent with this intent.

 

12. Communications.  All notices, demands and other communications required or permitted hereunder or designated to be given with respect to the rights or interests covered by this Agreement shall be deemed to have been properly given or delivered when delivered personally or sent by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, U.S. mail or reputable overnight carrier, with full postage prepaid and addressed to the parties as follows:

Any amendment to the Plan shall be deemed to be an amendment to this Agreement to the extent that the amendment is applicable hereto; provided, however, that no amendment shall adversely affect the rights of Grantee under this Agreement without Grantee’s consent.

 

16. Severance.  In the event that one or more of the provisions of this Agreement shall be invalidated for any reason by a court of competent jurisdiction, any provision so invalidated shall be deemed to be separable from the other provisions hereof and the remaining provisions hereof shall continue to be valid and fully enforceable.

FORM OF

FIRST AMENDMENT TO UNSECURED PROMISSORY NOTE

THIS FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE UNSECURED PROMISSORY NOTE originally dated November 9, 2009, is made as of April 30, 2010, by and between the Borrower, Brekford International Corp., a  Delaware corporation (“Borrower”) and __________________, an individual person (the “Lender”),.whose principal business address is located at 7020 Dorsey Road, Suite C, Hanover, Maryland 21076 (Lender and all other or subsequent holders of this promissory note, referred to as a “Holder”)(the “Amendment”)

WHEREAS, the Borrower delivered to Lender a Promissory Note, dated November 9, 2009, in the original principal amount of $___________, a copy of which is attached hereto as Annex A and made a part hereof by reference, (collectively, the “Promissory Note”);

 

 

WHEREAS, the parties to this Amendment desire to amend the conversion terms and the maturity date of the Promissory Note consistent with the terms and conditions set forth herein;

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and agreements contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties intending to be legally bound hereby agree as follows:

 

1.           Incorporation of Recitals.  The foregoing recitals are true and correct and are incorporated herein by reference.

 

                2.          Terms.  All capitalized terms used herein, unless otherwise defined herein, shall have the meaning set forth in the Promissory Note, as defined in and modified by the Amendment.

 

                3.           Payment Terms.  The maturity date shall be amended to reflect that Borrower agrees to pay the unpaid principal balance of this Note and all accrued and unpaid interest on the date that is the earlier of (i) four (4) years from the Issue Date of this Note as set forth above, or (ii) ten (10) business days from the date of closing by Borrower of any equity financing generating gross proceeds in the aggregate amount of not less than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) (the “Maturity Date”).  Borrower may prepay all or any part of interest or principal at any time without penalty with written notice to Holder; provided however, that the Holder shall have the right to convert the Note or portion thereof to be prepaid in accordance with Section 3 of the Promissory Note prior to such prepayment by Borrower.  In such event, the Note or portion thereof so converted shall be deemed satisfied, and the Borrower will have no further obligation under the Note with respect to such converted portion in any way other than to issue the Shares.

 

4.           Amended Conversion Rights.  The Holder’s conversion rights shall be amended to reflect that the Holder, at his option, so long as any portion of this Note remains outstanding, may elect to convert any outstanding and unpaid principal portion of this Note, and any accrued and unpaid interest (the date of delivery of a completed Notice of Conversion in the form annexed to the Promissory Note to the Borrower’s Vice President of Finance being a “Conversion Date”) into shares (“Shares”) of the Borrower’s common stock, par value $.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), at a price of fourteen cents ($0.14) per Share (the “Conversion Price”), subject to adjustment as provided in Section 3(b) in the Promissory Note.

 

  

  

  

5.           Conflict between the Promissory Note and this Amendment.  In the event of any conflict between the terms and provisions of the Promissory Note and the terms and provisions of this Amendment, the terms and conditions of this Amendment shall govern.

 

 

6.           Ratification of Promissory Note. Except as amended by this Amendment, the Promissory Note remains in full force and effect.

 

7.           Counterparts.  This Amendment may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all constituting only one agreement.  All executed facsimile copies of this Amendment shall have the same force and effect as an executed original.
