this Award prior to the close of business on the Final Acceptance Date specified above by (i) signing and delivering to the Company a copy of this Award Agreement and (ii) delivering to the Company a stock power endorsed in blank. Upon
acceptance of this Award by the Grantee, the shares of Restricted Stock so accepted shall be issued and held by the Company’s transfer agent in book entry form, and the Grantee’s name shall be entered as the stockholder of record on the

 2.     Restrictions and Conditions.

  
 (a) Any book entries for the shares of

 (b) Shares of Restricted Stock granted herein may not be
sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered or disposed of by the Grantee prior to vesting. 
  
 (c) Grantee shall continue to vest in the shares of Restricted Stock for so long as he serves the Company as either an employee or a

 3.     Vesting of Restricted Stock.
The restrictions and conditions in Paragraph 2 of this Agreement shall lapse on the Vesting Date or Dates specified in the following schedule. If a series of Vesting Dates is specified, then the restrictions and conditions in Paragraph 2

withhold from shares of Stock to be issued, or (ii) transferring to the Company, a number of shares of Stock with an aggregate Fair Market Value that would satisfy the withholding amount due.

 Unless this document provides otherwise, each payment that the Borrower makes to the Facility Agent is made for the account of the Lenders entitled to

	 	(i)	first in accordance with the Securities; 

  

	 	(ii)	then in payment to the Facility Agent, the Security Trustee and the Lenders of amounts due to them under clause 14;

 22.

other proof of payment; and 

  

	 	(d)	must indemnify the party entitled to the payment against the deduction or withholding by paying to the Facility Agent for the account of that party at the time that the payment is

Amount) is received by another party in a currency (Payment Currency) that is not the currency in which the amount is expressed to be payable under this document (Required Currency) then the Borrower, as an independent obligation,
must indemnify that party against, and must pay that party on demand the amount of, any shortfall between: 
  

	 	(a)	the amount of Required Currency which that party receives on converting the amount it received in the Payment Currency into an amount in the Required Currency in accordance with its
usual practice; and

amounts payable under clause 14(d)) outstanding under each Transaction Document that relate to that Lender: 

  

	 	(i)	if that Lender considers that the current or any subsequent Interest Period will end before it becomes illegal or impractical for that Lender to participate in the Facility - on the
Interest Payment Date at the end of the relevant Interest Period; or 

  

	 	(ii)	if paragraph (b)(i) does not apply to that Lender’s Commitment or its participation in the Principal Outstanding on the Illegal Date.
