     NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants hereinafter set

Participant’s shares of Restricted Stock (i) for any reason other than due to death,

 

 

Disability or Retirement (as defined below), all such shares of Restricted Stock shall be forfeited

otherwise encumber shares of Restricted Stock prior to any applicable Vesting Date in violation of

Participant’s choice or to continue to hold the shares in book-entry format with the transfer
agent.

     6. Shareholder’s Rights. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, prior to the
Vesting Date with respect to any of the Participant’s shares of Restricted Stock, the Participant
shall have, with respect to any of the shares of Restricted Stock, all rights of a shareholder of
the Company, including the right to vote such shares and the right to receive all dividends paid
with respect to such shares of Restricted Stock at the same time as Shareholders generally;
provided, that the right to vote and receive dividends shall terminate immediately with respect to
any shares of Restricted Stock upon forfeiture of those shares pursuant to Section 4 hereof
and that stock dividends shall be subject to the provisions of Sections 7(b) and (c) and Section 19
of the Plan in the same manner as the corresponding Restricted Stock to which such dividends or
distributions relate and shall be held by the Company or subject to a legend as determined by the
Committee to effectuate the purposes of the Plan.

     7. Non-Assignability. Except as expressly provided in the Plan or herein, Awards
shall not be assigned, transferred, pledged or encumbered, and any purported assignment, transfer,

No such agreement shall extend to or affect any provision of this Agreement not expressly changed,
modified, amended, discharged, terminated or waived or impair any right consequent on such a
provision. The waiver of or failure to enforce any breach of this Agreement shall not be deemed to

the Plan shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware
without regard to the provisions governing conflict of laws.

of the Plan and that all decisions, determinations and interpretations of the Committee or the
Company in respect of this Agreement shall be final, conclusive and binding.
