 FORM OF STOCK AWARD 
 AGREEMENT (RESTRICTED SHARES) FOR EMPLOYEES UNDER THE 
 XTO ENERGY INC. 
 AMENDED AND
RESTATED 2004 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN 
 THIS AGREEMENT is entered into this          day
of                     , 200    , between XTO Energy Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and
                     (“Grantee”), pursuant to the provisions of the XTO Energy Inc. Amended and Restated 2004 Stock Incentive Plan
(the “Plan”). The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Committee”) has determined that Grantee is eligible to be a participant in the Plan and, to carry out its purposes, has this day authorized
the grant, pursuant to the Plan, of the stock award set forth below to Grantee. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants
herein contained, the parties do hereby agree as follows: 
 1. Grant of Stock Award. Subject to all of the terms, conditions and
provisions of the Plan and of this Agreement, the Company hereby grants to Grantee under Section 10 of the Plan                     
shares of the common stock of the Company, par value one cent ($0.01) per share (the “Common Stock”), which shares will consist of authorized but unissued shares or issued shares reacquired by the Company. Such shares are being issued as a
stock award in the form of restricted shares under the Plan. 
 2. Vesting. The restricted shares granted herein will vest in one-third
increments on each of the first, second, and third anniversaries of the Grant Date. 
 3. Grantee’s Agreement. Grantee expressly
and specifically agrees that: 
  

 1 

	 	(a)	With respect to the calendar year in which any of the restricted shares vest, Grantee will include in his or her gross income for federal, state and local income tax purposes the
fair market value of the restricted shares that vested. 

  

	 	(b)	The grant of restricted shares is special incentive compensation that will not be taken into account as “wages” or “salary” in determining the amount of payment
or benefit to Grantee under any other compensation or insurance plan of the Company. 

  

	 	(c)	The Company may hold the certificate for unvested restricted shares until the restricted shares vest or the restricted shares may be uncertificated shares issued in the name of the
Grantee and held in a restricted account by the Company’s transfer agent. 

  

	 	(d)	Grantee may pay to the Company any federal, state or local tax withholding owed as a result of the restricted shares vesting with shares of Common Stock owned by Grantee on the date
of vesting or with the shares of unrestricted Common Stock acquired upon vesting (the shares of Common Stock being valued at fair market value on the date of vesting). 

 4. Death or Disability. Upon death of Grantee, or upon termination of Grantee’s employment by reason of permanent disability (as determined by
the Committee), all unvested restricted shares granted herein will immediately vest.

 5. Other Terms, Conditions and Provisions. As noted above, the restricted shares herein granted by
the Company to Grantee are granted subject to all of the terms, conditions and provisions of the Plan. Grantee hereby acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and Plan prospectus and hereby consents to receive any updates to the Plan or Plan
prospectus electronically. The parties agree that the entire text of the Plan is incorporated by reference as if copied herein. Reference is made to the Plan for a full description of the rights of Grantee and all of the other terms, conditions and
provisions of the Plan applicable to the restricted shares granted herein. If any of the provisions of this Agreement vary from or are in conflict with the Plan, the provisions of the Plan will be controlling. 
 6. Non-Transferability. The restricted shares granted hereunder are not transferable or assignable by Grantee. 
 7. Rights as a Stockholder. Grantee will have the voting, dividend, and other rights of stockholders of the Company prior to and upon vesting of
the restricted shares. If the restricted shares are canceled, all such rights will then be canceled. 
 8. No Employment Commitment.
Grantee acknowledges that neither the grant of restricted shares nor the execution of this Agreement by the Company will be interpreted or construed as imposing upon the Company any obligation to retain Grantee’s services for any stated period
of time, which employment will continue to be at the pleasure of the Company at such compensation as it determines, unless otherwise provided in a written employment agreement signed by the Company and Grantee.

 First Amendment to 
 Plan of Compensation for Outside Directors 
 (Amendment adopted on November 8, 2006) 
 The Plan of Compensation for Outside Directors, as adopted on August 8, 2006 (the “Plan”) is amended as follows, effective as of November 8, 2006: 
 1. The provision of the Plan captioned “Number of shares” in the “Annual Compensation” section of the Plan is amended to read as
follows: 
  

			
	Number of shares	  	The option will be for a number of shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (i) 3 times the amount of cash compensation to be converted into an option by (ii) the average
closing price of Stericycle stock during the period from the prior year’s annual meeting through the last trading day before the current annual meeting.

 2. The provisions of the Plan captioned “Joining grant” and “Annual grant” in
the “Option Grants to New Director” section of the Plan are amended to read as follows: 
  

			
	Joining grant	  	 A new director will receive two stock options upon joining the Board.
  
 The first option, for joining the Board, will be for a number of shares equal to the quotient
obtained by dividing (i) 6 times the amount of the directors’ current cash compensation ($125,000) by (ii) the average closing price of Stericycle stock during the 12-month period ending on the last trading day before the
director’s election to the Board. The exercise price of the option will be the closing price on the day of the director’s election, and one-fifth of the option shares will vest on each of the first five anniversaries of the director’s
election.

		
	Annual grant	  	 The new director will also receive an option reflecting his annual compensation as a director.
  
 The option will be for a number of shares equal to a pro rata portion of the quotient obtained by
dividing (i) 3 times the amount of the directors’ current cash compensation ($125,000) by (ii) the average closing price of Stericycle stock during the 12-month period ending on the last trading

  

			
		  	 day immediately before the director’s election to the Board. The exercise price of the option will be the closing price on the day of the
director’s election, and the option will vest on the day of the next annual meeting of stockholders.
  
 The pro rata portion means a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of months until the next annual meeting of stockholders and the denominator of which is 12.Letter Agreement

	 Mr. Michael W. Zellner
	    
	 San Jose, CA
	    
	 USA
	    

 Dear Mike; 
 I am
pleased to offer you the position of Vice President, Chief Financial Officer at PMC-Sierra, Inc. (“the Company” or “PMC”) reporting to me. The position is effective March 2, 2007 and the compensation package is subject to
the approval of the PMC-Sierra, Inc. Board of Directors or the Compensation Committee. Your position will be located in Santa Clara, CA. 
 Base
Salary 
 You will receive a gross salary of US$365,000. which will be paid bi-weekly in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll
procedures. Salaries are reviewed on an annual basis with the review normally occurring at the beginning of each year. You should note that a salary review does not guarantee a salary increase, because salary increases may not occur every year, nor
is it a promise of continued employment. 
 Short Term Incentive Plan 
 You will be eligible to participate in the Company’s Short Term Incentive Plan (“STIP”) at a target award level of 60% of your annual salary. Payouts under STIP are currently made twice yearly and are
based on various preconditions including your achievement of individual performance objectives and the achievement of corporate objectives. Your participation in the 2007 STIP will be effective from March 2, 2007. 
 Equity Awards 
 Subject to the terms of
PMC-Sierra’s equity plan and your stock grant agreement, upon accepting our offer, the Company will recommend that the Board of Directors or its Compensation Committee grant you: a) an option to purchase 255,000 PMC-Sierra, Inc. common shares
at a price per share equal to 100% of the fair market price on the grant date, and b) the right to receive 56,666 restricted stock units (“restricted stock units”) 

 
issued upon the completion of the applicable vesting criteria found in the stock grant agreement. Stock option grants are typically approved by the
Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors on the first Tuesday of the month following your date of hire and restricted stock unit grants are approved quarterly. If the market is not open on an expected grant date, the grant date will default
to the next trading day. 
 The Company’s grants of options and restricted stock units typically vest over four years. The specific vesting terms are
found in your option agreement. 
 The Company also considers granting equity awards as part of its annual performance review process, which currently occurs
in the first calendar quarter. Given your position and your start date with the company, you will be considered for a grant in connection with the performance review process. All equity awards are purely discretionary and are subject to approval by
the Board of Directors. No representation is made with regard to the existence or price of any future equity awards. Termination of employment for any reason will result in the loss of unvested rights. 
 As part of its corporate governance initiatives, the Company has instituted stock ownership requirements for its executive officers and directors. As an executive
officer, you must hold $100,000 of the Company’s common stock by the fifth anniversary of your initial grant of restricted stock units. In addition, shares obtained through option exercises and by participation in the employee stock purchase
plan may be used to meet the above described ownership requirement. 
 Benefits 
 As a regular, full-time employee you are eligible to participate in the Company’s benefits plans in accordance with their terms and conditions. A description of the
Company’s benefits are enclosed. The administration of benefits is within the Company’s sole discretion and benefits may be subject to change from time to time at the Company’s discretion. You will also be eligible to receive vacation
accrued in accordance with the Company’s policies. 
 Performance Reviews 
 As a new employee, your performance will be reviewed within six months of your start date and then the regular schedule will apply. 
 Business Travel 
 As discussed, it is anticipated that
you will be required to spend a significant portion of your time at the Company’s Burnaby, British Columbia office. As there may be tax and immigration consequences resulting from this requirement, the Company will provide you with the tax
consultation services, currently by PricewaterhouseCoopers, which will include tax-filing preparation if you are required to file taxes in jurisdictions other than

those that you do currently. The Company will also provide support in obtaining the necessary visas or work permits should the incidence of business trips to
Canada require you to do so. 
 Additional Agreements 
 Your offer of employment also includes two separate agreements: an Indemnification Agreement and a Change of Control Agreement which are provided to our Executive Officers. 
 This offer is conditional upon your signing and complying with the enclosed At-Will Employment, Confidential Information, Invention Assignment, and Arbitration Agreement
which requires, among other provisions, the assignment of patent rights to any invention made during your employment at the Company, and non-disclosure of proprietary information. 
 The Company reserves the right to conduct background investigations and/or reference checks on all of its potential employees. Your job offer, therefore, is contingent upon a clearance of such a background
investigation and/or reference check, if any. 
 We also ask that, if you have not already done so, you disclose to the Company any and all agreements
relating to your prior employment that may affect your eligibility to be employed by the Company or limit the manner in which you may be employed. It is the Company’s understanding that any such agreements will not prevent you from performing
the duties of your position and you represent that such is the case. Moreover, you agree not to bring any third party confidential information to the Company, including that of your former employer, and that in performing your duties for the Company
you will not in any way utilize any such information. 
 We are looking forward to you joining PMC and to a beneficial and fruitful relationship.
Nevertheless, you should be aware that your employment with the Company is for no specified period and constitutes at-will employment. As a result, you are free to resign at any time, for any reason or for no reason. Similarly, the Company is free
to conclude its employment relationship with you at any time, with or without cause, and with or without notice. This relationship cannot be altered or modified without written authorization from the Chief Executive Officer. Participation in any
equity award or benefit program does not assure continuing employment for any particular period of time. 
 This letter, along with any Company agreements,
including but not limited to the Indemnification Agreement, the Change of Control Agreement and the Company’s At-Will Employment, Confidential Information, Invention Assignment, and Arbitration Agreement, set forth the terms of your employment
with the Company and supersede any prior representations or agreements, whether written or oral. This letter, including,

but not limited to, its at-will employment provision, may not be modified or amended except by a written agreement signed by the Vice President of Human
Resources and you.

my attention. A duplicate original is enclosed for your records. We would appreciate your response by March 1, 2007. If you are unable to reply within this time period please contact me at the number below
