of Performance Shares/Performance Units shall be entitled to receive payout on the
value and number of Performance Shares/Performance Units earned by the Participant
over the Performance Period, to be determined as a function of the extent to which
the corresponding performance goals have been achieved. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Company has the ability to require the Participant to hold the
Shares received pursuant to such Award for a specified period of time.
	 
	 	(c)	 	Form and Timing of Payment of Performance Shares and Performance
Units. Payment of earned Performance Shares/Performance Units shall be as
determined by the Committee and as evidenced in the Award Agreement. Subject to

combination thereof) equal to the value of the earned Performance
Shares/Performance Units at the close of the applicable Performance Period. Any

Committee. The determination of the Committee with respect to the form of payout
of such Awards shall be set forth in the Award Agreement pertaining to the grant
of the Award.

	 	(d)	 	Dividends and Other Distributions. At the discretion of the
Committee, Participants holding Performance Shares may be entitled to receive
dividend equivalents with respect to dividends declared with respect to the
Shares. Such dividends may be subject to the accrual, forfeiture, or payout
restrictions as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.

     8. Beneficiary Designation. The Participant may, from time to time, name any beneficiary or
beneficiaries (who may be named contingently or successively) to whom any benefit under this
Agreement is to be paid in case of his or her death before he or she receives any or all of such
benefit. Each such designation shall revoke all prior designations by the Participant, shall be in
a form prescribed by the Company, and will be effective only when filed by the Participant in
writing with the Vice President Administration and Human Resources of the Company during the
Participant’s lifetime. In the absence of any such designation, benefits remaining unpaid at the
Participant’s death shall be paid to the Participant’s estate.

     9. Rights as a Stockholder. The Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder of the
Company with respect to the Shares subject to this Agreement until such time as the purchase price
has been paid, and the Shares have been issued and delivered to him or her.

     10. Continuation of Employment. This Agreement shall not confer upon the Participant any right
to continuation of employment by the Company, nor shall this Agreement interfere in any way with
the Company’s right to terminate the Participant’s employment at any time. A transfer of the
Participant’s employment between the Company and any one of its Subsidiaries (or between
Subsidiaries) shall not be deemed a termination of employment.

     11. Miscellaneous.

subject to all the terms and conditions of the Plan, as the same may be amended
from time to time, as well as to such rules and regulations as the Committee may

restrictions under applicable federal securities laws, under the requirements of
any stock exchange or market upon which such Shares are then listed and/or traded,
and under any blue sky or state securities laws applicable to such Shares. It is
expressly understood that the Committee is authorized to administer, construe, and
make all determinations necessary or appropriate to the administration of the
Plan and this Agreement, all of which shall be binding upon the Participant.
	 
	 	(b)	 	The Committee may terminate, amend, or modify the Plan; provided,
however, that no such termination, amendment, or modification of the Plan may in
any material way adversely affect the Participant’s rights under this Agreement,
