RESTRICTED STOCK GRANT AGREEMENT

THIS AGREEMENT is made
effective
                        (the “Grant Date”) between USF
Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Thomas E. Bergmann
(the “Recipient”).

WHEREAS, the Company desires to grant to the Recipient certain shares (the
“Shares”) of its common capital stock (the “Stock”); and

WHEREAS, such Shares are not being issued under the Company’s Long-Term
Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) but the Company and the Recipient understand and
agree that any terms used herein have the same meanings as if such Shares were
granted as restricted stock under the Plan (the Recipient being referred to in
the Plan as a “Participant”).

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the following mutual covenants and for
other good and valuable consideration, the parties agree as follows:

1.    GRANT OF RESTRICTED STOCK

The Company
hereby grants to the Recipient               Shares of Stock on the
terms and conditions and subject to all the limitations set forth herein
and in the Plan, which is incorporated herein by reference. The
Recipient acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan. The Company and
the Recipient acknowledge that the number of Shares of Stock granted
hereunder equals
$              of Stock on the Grant Date.

2.    PURCHASE PRICE

The purchase price of the Stock shall be deemed to be zero Dollars per
Share. The foregoing notwithstanding, the Recipient shall not, without
the consent of the Company, make any election under Section 83(b) of the
Code to recognize income at the date of grant.

3.    CERTIFICATES AND SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS

The Company’s Transfer Agent and Registrar shall prepare and issue a
stock certificate in the Recipient’s name representing the Shares of
Stock that the Recipient has been granted. From and after the issuance
of the certificate, the Recipient shall be the holder of record with
respect to the Stock. The Company shall take such actions as are
necessary to register the Shares under the applicable securities laws on
or before the date such Shares cease to be subject to the restrictions
described in Paragraph 4.

4.    RESTRICTIONS AND VESTING

	 	(a)	 	Until the passage of the time periods or the occurrence of
the events specified in Paragraph 4(b) below, the Recipient shall
not sell, transfer, convey, pledge, encumber, or otherwise dispose
of all or a portion of any interest in the Stock.

 

 

	 	(b)	 	Subject to this Agreement, the restrictions hereunder shall
lapse on the first to occur of the following dates or events,
whichever is applicable:

	 	 	 	 	 
	(i)	 	Total Number of Shares
	 	Date Restrictions Lapse

	 	 	 	 	 
	(ii)	 	Total Number of Shares
	 	Event on Which Restrictions Lapse

	

	 	 	 	Recipient’s Death or Disability as
defined in the Plan
	 
	 	 	 	 
	

	 	 	 	Termination by the Company without
“Cause” as defined in the
Employment Agreement
	 
	 	 	 	 
	

	 	 	 	Occurrence of a Change in Control,
as defined in Exhibit C to the
Employment Agreement

Except as provided above, any Stock the restrictions on which have not
lapsed upon the Recipient’s termination of employment shall be forfeited
immediately and this statement shall constitute the written notice
required under the Plan of such forfeiture.

5.    DIVIDENDS

From and after the date the Recipient acquires the Shares, and is issued
a certificate or certificates, the Recipient shall be entitled, with
respect to the Recipient’s Shares of Stock, to any dividends declared by
the Company on its Shares of Common Stock and paid in the form of cash or
other property.

6.    RELEASE OF RESTRICTIONS

Cash dividends paid with respect to Shares of Stock shall be paid to the
Recipient. In the case of dividends declared by the Company and payable
in the form of Common Stock or other securities of the Company, then such
securities shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and
this Agreement, shall be represented by certificates issued in the name
of the Recipient but shall be subject to the restrictions and vesting
schedules specified in Paragraph 4, provided that the restrictions
applicable to securities issued as a dividend on certain Shares shall
lapse concurrently with the restrictions on the underlying Shares.

 

 

7.    RELEASE OF RESTRICTIONS

At such time as the restrictions on the Shares of Stock lapse, or as soon
thereafter as may be practicable, the restrictive legend shall be removed
from the certificate or certificates.

8.    WITHHOLDING

The Company shall have the power and right to deduct or withhold, or
require the Recipient to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to
satisfy federal, state, and local taxes required by law to be withheld
with respect to any grant made under or as a result of this Agreement.
In the alternative, the Recipient may elect, subject to Company approval,
to satisfy the withholding requirement in whole or in part, by having the
Company withhold Shares that would otherwise be transferred to the
Recipient having a fair market value, on the date the tax is to be
determined, equal to the minimum marginal tax that could be imposed on
the transaction. All elections shall be made in writing and signed by
the Recipient.

                               [FACE OF DEBENTURE]

         The following legend applies if this Security is a Global Security:
Unless this certificate is presented by an authorized representative of The
Depository Trust Company, a New York corporation ("DTC"), to the Issuer or its
agent for registration of transfer, exchange or payment, and any certificate
issued is registered in the name of Cede & Co. or in such other name as
requested by an authorized representative of DTC (and any payment is made to
Cede & Co. or such other entity as is requested by an authorized representative
of DTC), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR

                             DUE _____________, 20__

         POPULAR, INC., a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws
of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico (hereinafter called the "Company," which term
includes any successor corporation under the Indenture hereinafter referred to),
for value received, hereby promises to pay to ______________________________, or
registered assigns, the principal sum of _______________________________________
($____________) on _____________, 20__. The Company further promises to pay
interest on the principal sum from _____________, 20__ or from the most recent
Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for
monthly (subject to deferral as set forth herein) on the first day of each month
of each year commencing _____________, 20__ at the rate of _____% per annum,
together with Additional Sums, if any, as provided in Section 1007 of the
Indenture, until the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment;
provided, however, that any overdue installment of interest (after giving effect
to any Extension Period permitted by this Security) shall bear Additional
Interest at the rate of _____% per annum (to the extent that the payment of such
interest shall be legally enforceable), compounded monthly, from the date such
installment was due until it is paid or made available for payment. The amount
of interest payable for any period less than a full monthly interest period
shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months and the
actual days elapsed in a partial month in such period. The amount of interest
payable for any full monthly interest period shall be computed by dividing the
applicable rate per annum by twelve. The interest so payable, and punctually
paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in the
Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more
Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular
Record Date for such interest, which shall be the _____ calendar day (whether or
not a Business

<PAGE>

Day, as defined below) next preceding such Interest Payment Date. If an Interest
Payment Date is not a Business Day, interest on this Security shall be payable
on the next day that is a Business Day, with the same force and effect as if
made on such Interest Payment Date, and without any interest or other payment
with respect to the delay. "Business Day" as used hereinabove is a day other
than a Saturday, a Sunday or any other day on which banking institutions in San
Juan, Puerto Rico, Wilmington, Delaware or New York, New York are authorized or
required by law, regulation or executive order to remain closed or and
customarily closed.

         Any interest not punctually paid or duly provided for will forthwith
cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date and may either be
paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor
Securities) is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for
the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice
whereof shall be given to Holders of Securities of this series not less than 10
days prior to such Special Record Date, or be paid at any time in any other
lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange
on which the Securities of this series may be listed, and upon such notice as
may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Indenture.

         So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the
Company shall have the right, at any time during the term of this Security, from
time to time to defer the payment of interest on this Security for up to 60
consecutive monthly interest payment periods with respect to each deferral
period (each an "Extension Period"), during which Extension Period the Company
shall have the right to make a partial payment of interest on any Interest
Payment Date, at the end of which the Company shall pay all interest then
accrued and unpaid including any Additional Interest, as provided below;
provided, however, that no Extension Period shall extend beyond the Maturity of
the principal of this Security and no such Extension Period may end other than
at the end of a full monthly interest period; and provided, further, however,
that during any such Extension Period, the Company shall not (i) make any
payment of principal of or interest or premium, if any, on or repay, repurchase
or redeem any debt securities of the Company that rank pari passu in all
respects with or junior in interest to this Security (except for any partial
payments of interest with respect to and permitted under the Securities of this
series), or (ii) declare or pay any dividends or distributions on, or redeem,
purchase, acquire or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any of the
Company's capital stock (other than (a) repurchases, redemptions or other
acquisitions of shares of capital stock of the Company in connection with any
employment contract, benefit plan or other similar arrangement with or for the
benefit of any one or more employees, officers, directors, consultants or
independent contractors, in connection with a dividend reinvestment or
stockholder stock purchase plan or in connection with the issuance of capital
stock of the Company (or securities convertible into or exercisable for such
capital stock) as consideration in an acquisition transaction entered into prior
to the applicable Extension Period, (b) as a result of an exchange, redemption
or conversion of any class or series of the Company's capital stock (or any
capital stock of a subsidiary of the Company) for any other class or series of
the Company's capital stock or of any class or series of the Company's
indebtedness for any class or series of the Company's capital stock, (c) the
purchase of fractional interests in shares of the Company's capital stock
pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of such

                                       2
<PAGE>

capital stock or the security being converted or exchanged, (d) any declaration
of a dividend in connection with any Rights Plan, or the issuance of rights,
stock or other property under any Rights Plan, or the redemption or repurchase
of rights pursuant thereto, (e) payments by the Company under the Guarantee
Agreement, or (f) any dividend in the form of stock, warrants, options or other
rights where the dividend stock or the stock issuable upon exercise of such
warrants, options or other rights is the same stock as that on which the
dividend is being paid or ranks pari passu with or junior to such stock). Prior
to the termination of any such Extension Period, the Company may extend such
Extension Period and further defer the payment of interest, provided that no
Extension Period shall exceed 60 consecutive monthly interest payment periods,
extend beyond the Maturity of the principal of this Security or end other than
at the end of a full monthly interest period. Upon the termination of any such
Extension Period and upon the payment of all accrued and unpaid interest and any
Additional Interest then due on any Interest Payment Date, the Company may elect
to begin a new Extension Period, subject to the above conditions. No interest or
Additional Interest shall be due and payable during an Extension Period, except
at the end thereof, but each installment of interest that would otherwise have
been due and payable during such Extension Period shall bear Additional Interest
(to the extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable)
at the rate of _____% per annum, compounded monthly and calculated as set forth
in the first paragraph of this Security, from the dates on which amounts would
otherwise have been due and payable until paid or made available for payment.
The Company shall give the Holder of this Security and the Trustee notice of its
election to begin any Extension Period at least one Business Day prior to the
next succeeding Interest Payment Date on which interest on this Security would
be payable but for such deferral or, so long as such Securities are held by or
on behalf of Popular Capital Trust __, at least one Business Day prior to the
earlier of (i) the next succeeding date on which Distributions on the Capital
Trust Securities of such Issuer Trust would be payable but for such deferral,
and (ii) the date on which the Property Trustee of such Issuer Trust is required
to give notice to holders of such Capital Trust Securities of the record date or
the date such Distributions are payable.

         Payment of interest, including Additional Interest, on this Security
will be made in immediately available funds at the office or agency of the
Company maintained for that purpose in the City of San Juan, Puerto Rico, in
such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment
is legal tender for payment of public and private debts; provided, however,
that, at the option of the Company, payment of interest may be paid by check
mailed to the Person entitled thereto at such Person's last address as it
appears in the Security Register or, upon written request of a Holder of
$1,000,000 or more in aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series
not less than 15 calendar days prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date, by
wire transfer to such account as may have been designated by such Person.
Payment of principal of and interest, including Additional Interest, on this
Security at Maturity will be made against presentation of this Security at the
office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in the City of San
Juan, Puerto Rico.

         Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Security set
forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes
have the same effect as if set forth at this place.
