 CAREER EDUCATION CORPORATION 

2008 INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PLAN 
 RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT 
 In accordance with and subject to the terms of
the Career Education Corporation 2008 Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) and this Agreement, the Committee granted to the person named as grantee (the “Grantee”), on the cover page attached to this Restricted
Stock Agreement (the “Cover Page”) an award of shares of Restricted Shares of the Career Education Corporation (the “Company”) (the Cover Page and this Restricted Stock Agreement hereinafter referred to as the
“Agreement”). 
 To evidence such award and to set forth its terms, the Company and the Grantee agree as
follows. All capitalized terms not otherwise defined in the Agreement shall have the meaning set forth in the Plan. 
 1. Grant of Restricted
Shares. Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Plan, the Committee granted to the Grantee the number of shares of Restricted Shares set forth on the Cover Page (the “Restricted Shares”),
effective as of the grant date set forth on the Cover Page (the “Grant Date”), and the Grantee hereby accepts the grant of the Restricted Shares on a restricted basis, as set forth herein. 

2. Limitations on Transferability. At any time prior to vesting in accordance with Paragraph 3 or 4, the Restricted Shares, or any interest
therein, cannot be directly or indirectly transferred, sold, assigned, pledged, hypothecated, encumbered or otherwise disposed. 
 3. Dates
of Vesting. Subject to the provisions of Paragraphs 4 and 5 of this Agreement, the Restricted Shares shall cease to be restricted and shall become non-forfeitable (thereafter being referred to as “Vested Shares”) on the dates
(each, a “Vesting Date”) as follows: 
 (a) the portion of the Restricted Shares designated as
“Time-Vesting Shares” on the Cover Page (“Time-Vesting Shares”) shall become Vested Shares on the third anniversary of the Grant Date. 
 (b) provided that the performance criteria specified on Exhibit A hereto have been satisfied, the portion of the Restricted Shares designated as “Performance- and Time-Vesting Shares” on the
Cover Page (“Performance-Vesting Shares”) shall become Vested Shares as of the third anniversary of the Grant Date, but only to the extent and in the proportion that such performance criteria have been satisfied as determined in the
sole and complete discretion of the Compensation Committee as described below. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to
Paragraphs 4 and 5 below, in the event that the Grantee incurs a Termination of Service prior to any Vesting Date, any Restricted Shares that were unvested at the date of such Termination of Service shall be immediately forfeited to the
Company.
 Any shares of Performance-Vesting Shares that do not become Vested Shares on the third anniversary of the Grant Date
as a result of a failure to fully satisfy the applicable performance criteria shall be forfeited to the Company. The Committee shall have full discretion and authority to determine whether and to what extent such performance criteria have been
satisfied, and the determination of the Committee shall be final and binding on the Grantee, the Company and all other interested persons. 
 4.
Termination of Service. Subject to Paragraph 5 below, the provisions of this Paragraph 4 shall apply in the event the Grantee incurs a Termination of Service at any time prior to the applicable Vesting Date set forth in Paragraph 3:

 (a) If the Grantee incurs a Termination of Service because of his or her death or Disability, the number of Restricted Shares
that will vest based on the such Termination of Service shall be equal to the result of the following formula: 
 A x (B/1095)

 Where: 
  

	 	A  =	The number of Restricted Shares; and 

	 	B  =	The number of days elapsing between the Grant Date and the date of the Grantee’s Termination of Service. 

(b) Any fractional shares that vest pursuant to the foregoing formula shall be rounded up to the nearest whole share. The Grantee shall
immediately own the Vested Shares free of all restrictions otherwise imposed by this Agreement except for Vested Shares used to satisfy the tax withholding obligations set forth in Section 25 of this Agreement or otherwise required by any
taxing authority. 

  
 2 

 (c) To the extent the Grantee incurs a Termination of Service for any reason other than his
or her death or Disability, any then outstanding Restricted Shares that had not become Vested Shares prior to the date of the Termination of Service shall be immediately forfeited to the Company. 

5. Change in Control. In the event the Grantee incurs an involuntary Termination of Service at any time prior to Vesting Date but at the time of
or within two (2) years following a Change in Control, the number of Restricted Shares that become Vested Shares shall be equal to the result of the following formula: 
 C x (D/1095) 
 Where: 

 

	 	C  =	The number of Restricted Shares; and 

	 	D  =	The number of days elapsing between the Grant Date and the date of the Grantee’s Termination of Service. 

Any fractional shares that vest pursuant to the foregoing formula shall be rounded up to the nearest whole share.

 Any Restricted Shares that do not become Vested Shares in the event the Grantee incurs and involuntary Termination of Service
at the time of or within two (2) years following a Change in Control shall be immediately forfeited to the Company. The Grantee shall immediately own the Vested Shares free of all restrictions otherwise imposed by this Agreement except for
Vested Shares used to satisfy the tax withholding obligations set forth in Section 25 of this Agreement or otherwise required by any taxing authority. 
 6. Stock Issuance, Restrictions and Escrow. The Company, in its sole discretion, shall either (a) credit the Restricted Shares to the Grantee in a book entry on the
records kept by the Company’s stockholder record keeper, or (b) cause to be issued certificates for Restricted Shares. To the extent the Restricted Shares are credited pursuant to clause (a) of the preceding sentence, then any
outstanding Restricted Shares shall be subject to restrictions on transfer until, and to the extent, such Restricted Shares become Vested Shares pursuant to Paragraph 3, 4 or 5 above. To the extent certificates for the Restricted Shares are
issued pursuant to clause (b) above, such certificates shall be held in escrow by the Company until, and to the extent, such Restricted Shares shall become Vested Shares pursuant to Paragraph 3, 4 or 5 above. To the extent any such
Restricted Shares fail to become Vested Shares pursuant to Paragraph 3, 4 or 5 above, the Company shall cancel any portion of the Restricted Shares forfeited by the Grantee pursuant to the terms of the Plan or this Agreement. The Company shall
release the restrictions upon the remaining Vested Shares in the book entry records, or release the related certificates, together with any assets or securities held in escrow hereunder, from escrow, as applicable, in each case resulting in the
release of any Vested Shares to the Grantee. 
 7. Liability of Company. The inability of the Company to obtain approval from any
regulatory body having authority deemed by the Company to be necessary to the lawful issuance and transfer of any Shares pursuant to this Agreement shall relieve the Company of any liability with respect to the non-issuance or transfer of the Shares
as to which such approval shall not have been obtained. However, the Company shall use its best efforts to obtain all such approvals. 
 8.
Adjustment in Restricted Shares. The Committee may make or provide for such adjustments as provided for in Section 4.2 of the Plan. 

9. Plan Amendment. No discontinuation, modification, or amendment of the Plan may, without the written consent of the Grantee, adversely affect
the rights of the Grantee under this Agreement, except as otherwise provided under the Plan. This Agreement may be amended as provided under the Plan, but no such amendment shall adversely affect the Grantee’s rights under the Agreement without
the Grantee’s written consent, unless otherwise permitted by the Plan. 
 10. Stockholder Rights. The Grantee shall be entitled to
receive any dividends that become payable on or after the Grant Date with respect to the Restricted Shares and Vested Shares; provided, however, that no dividends shall be payable (a) with respect to the Restricted Shares on
account of record dates occurring prior to the Grant Date, and (b) with respect to forfeited Restricted Shares on account of record dates occurring on or after the date of such forfeiture. The Grantee shall be entitled to vote the Restricted
Shares on or after the Grant Date to the same extent as would have been applicable to the Grantee if the Restricted Shares had then been Vested Shares; provided, however, that the Grantee shall not be entitled to vote (a) the
Restricted Shares on account of record dates occurring prior to the Grant Date, and (b) with respect to forfeited Restricted Shares on account of record dates occurring on or after the date of such forfeiture.

 11. Employment Rights. This Agreement is not a contract of employment, and the terms of employment of
the Grantee or other relationship of the Grantee with the Company shall not be affected in any way by this Agreement except as specifically provided herein. The execution of this Agreement shall not be construed as conferring any legal rights upon
the Grantee for a continuation of an employment or other relationship with the Company, nor shall it interfere with the right of the Company to discharge the Grantee and to treat him or her without regard to the effect which such treatment might
have upon him or her as a Grantee. 
 12. Disclosure Rights. Except as required by applicable law, the Company (or any of its affiliates)
shall not have any duty or obligation to disclose affirmatively to a record or beneficial holder of Common Stock, Restricted Shares or Vested Shares, and such holder shall have no right to be advised of, any material information regarding the
Company at any time prior to, upon or in connection with receipt of the Shares. 
 13. Governing Law. The interpretation, performance and
enforcement of this Agreement shall be governed by and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware (other than its laws respecting choice of law). 
 14. Compliance with Laws and Regulations. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not be obligated to either (a) cause to be issued or delivered any
certificates for Restricted Shares or Vested Shares, or (b) credit a book entry related to the Restricted Shares or Vested Shares to be entered on the records of the Company’s stockholder record keeper, unless and until the Company is
advised by its counsel that such issuance and delivery of such certificates or entry on the records, as applicable, is in compliance with all applicable laws, regulations of governmental authority, and the requirements of any exchange upon which
Shares are traded. The Company may require, as a condition of such issuance and delivery of such certificates or entry on the records, as applicable, and in order to ensure compliance with such laws, regulations and requirements, that the
Grantee make such covenants, agreements, and representations as the Company, in its sole discretion, considers necessary or desirable. 
 15.
Successors and Assigns. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the succeeding administrators, heirs and legal representatives of the
Grantee and the successors and assigns of the Company. 
 16. No Limitation on Rights of the Company. This Agreement shall not in any way
affect the right of the Company to adjust, reclassify, reorganize or otherwise make changes in its capital or business structure, or to merge, consolidate, dissolve, liquidate, sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets. 

17. Notices. Any communication or notice required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be in writing, and, if to the Company, to its principal
place of business, attention: Secretary, and, if to the Grantee, to the address appearing on the records of the Company. Such communication or notice shall be delivered personally or sent by certified, registered, or express mail, postage prepaid,
return receipt requested, or by a reputable overnight delivery service. Any such notice shall be deemed given when received by the intended recipient. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any notice required or permitted hereunder from the Company to the
Grantee may be made by electronic means, including by electronic mail to the Company-maintained electronic mailbox of the Grantee, and the Grantee hereby consents to receive such notice by electronic delivery. To the extent permitted in an
electronically delivered notice described in the previous sentence, the Grantee shall be permitted to respond to such notice or communication by way of a responsive electronic communication, including by electronic mail. 

18. Construction. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, this Agreement is made and the Shares are granted pursuant to the Plan
and are in all respects limited by and subject to the express provisions of the Plan, as amended from time to time. To the extent any provision of this Agreement is inconsistent or in conflict with any term or provision of the Plan, the Plan shall
govern. The interpretation and construction by the Committee of the Plan, this Agreement and any such rules and regulations adopted by the Committee for purposes of administering the Plan, shall be final and binding upon the Grantee and all other
persons. 
 19. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Plan, constitute the entire obligation of the parties hereto with
respect to the subject matter hereof and shall supersede any prior expressions of intent or understanding with respect to this transaction. 

20. Amendment. Any amendment to this Agreement shall be in writing and signed by the Company and the Grantee. 

21. Waiver; Cumulative Rights. The failure or delay of either party to require performance by the other party of any provision hereof shall not
affect its right to require performance of such provision unless and until such performance has been waived in writing. Each and every right hereunder is cumulative and may be exercised in part or in whole from time to time. 

  
 4 

 22. Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in two counterparts, each of which shall be an
original, but both of which shall constitute but one and the same instrument. 
 23. Headings. The headings contained in this Agreement
are for reference purposes only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. 
 24. Severability. If any
provision of this Agreement shall for any reason be held to be invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision hereof, and this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid or unenforceable
provision were omitted. 
 25. Tax Consequences. The Grantee acknowledges and agrees that the Grantee is responsible for all taxes and
tax consequences with respect to the grant of the Restricted Shares or the lapse of restrictions otherwise imposed by this Agreement. The Grantee further acknowledges that it is the Grantee’s responsibility to obtain any advice that the Grantee
deems necessary or appropriate with respect to any and all tax matters that may exist as a result of the grant of the Restricted Shares or the lapse of restrictions otherwise imposed by this Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, the Restricted Shares, together with any other assets or securities held in escrow hereunder, shall not be released to the Grantee unless, as provided in Section 17 of the Plan, the Grantee shall have paid to the Company, or made
arrangements satisfactory to the Company regarding the payment of, any federal, state, local or foreign taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to the grant of the Restricted Shares or the lapse of restrictions otherwise
imposed by this Agreement. 
 26. Receipt of Plan. The Grantee acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan, and represents that the
Grantee is familiar with the terms and provisions thereof, and hereby accepts the Restricted Shares subject to all the terms and provisions of this Agreement and of the Plan. The Shares are granted pursuant to the terms of the Plan, the terms of
which are incorporated herein by reference, and the Restricted Shares shall in all respects be interpreted in accordance with the Plan. The Committee shall interpret and construe the Plan and this Agreement, and its interpretation and determination
shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties hereto and any other person claiming an interest hereunder, with respect to any issue arising hereunder or thereunder. 
 27. Restrictive Covenants. In consideration of receiving the Restricted Shares hereunder, and as a term and condition of the Grantee’s employment with the Company, the Grantee agrees to adhere
to, and be bound by, the following restrictions. The Grantee hereby acknowledges that the Grantee’s job responsibilities give the Grantee access to confidential and proprietary information belonging to the Company and/or its subsidiaries, and
that this and other confidential information to which the Grantee has access would be of value, and provide an unfair advantage, to a competitor in competing against the Company or its subsidiaries in any of the markets in which the Company or its
subsidiaries maintains schools, provides on-line education classes or otherwise conducts business. The Grantee further acknowledges that the following restrictions will not cause the Grantee undue hardship. Consequently, the Grantee agrees that the
restrictions below (the “Restrictive Covenants”) are reasonable and necessary to protect the Company’s and/or its subsidiaries’ legitimate business interests. 
 During the Grantee’s employment with the Company and/or any of its subsidiaries and continuing thereafter for the post-termination periods specified below, the Grantee will not, in any way, directly
or indirectly, either for the Grantee or any other person or entity, whether paid or unpaid: 
 (a) For twelve
(12) months following Grantee’s voluntary resignation from Grantee’s employment with the Company or Grantee’s termination from employment by the Company for Cause, accept employment with, own, manage, operate, consult or provide
expert services to any person or entity that competes with the Company or any of its subsidiaries in any capacity that involves any responsibilities or activities involving or relating to any Competing Educational Service, as defined
herein. “Competing Educational Service” means any educational service that competes with the educational services provided by the Company and/or any of its subsidiaries, including but not limited to coursework in the areas of
visual communication and design technologies; information technology; business studies; culinary arts; and health education, or any education service. The Grantee hereby acknowledges that the following organizations, among others, provide Competing
Educational Services and, should the Grantee accept employment with, own, manage, operate, consult or provide expert services to any of these organizations, it would inevitably require the use and/or disclosure of confidential information belonging
to the Company and/or its subsidiaries and would provide such organizations with an unfair business advantage over the Company: DeVry Inc., Kaplan, Inc., Apollo Group Inc., Education Management LLC, Embanet Corporation, Capella Education
Company, ITT Educational Services, Inc., Corinthian Colleges, Inc., Laureate Education, Inc. and Strayer Education, Inc. and each of their respective subsidiaries, affiliates and successors. The Grantee further acknowledges that the Company and/or
its subsidiaries provide career-oriented education through physical and web-based virtual campuses throughout the world and, therefore, it is impracticable to identify a limited, specific geographical scope for this Restrictive Covenant. For
avoidance of doubt, in the event the Grantee is involuntarily terminated from employment with the Company other than for Cause, the Grantee will not be subject to any post-termination noncompete restriction under this clause Section 27(a).

  
 5 

 (b) For twelve (12) months following Grantee’s termination of employment with
the Company for any reason, solicit, attempt to solicit, assist with the solicitation of, direct another to solicit, or otherwise entice any employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries to leave his/her employment. 

Should the Grantee breach the terms of these Restrictive Covenants, the Company reserves the right to enforce the terms herein in court and seek any and
all remedies available to it in equity and law, and the Grantee agrees to pay the Company’s attorneys’ fees and costs should it succeed on its claim(s). Further, should the Grantee breach the terms of these Restrictive Covenants, the
Grantee will forfeit any right to the Restricted Shares received hereunder, subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable Plan, and the Grantee agrees to pay the Company’s attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in recovering such
Restricted Shares. 
 It is the intention of the Grantee and the Company that in the event any of the covenants contained in these Restrictive
Covenants are determined to be unreasonable and/or unenforceable with respect to scope, time or geographical coverage, the Grantee and the Company agree that such covenants may be modified and narrowed by a court, so as to provide the maximum
legally enforceable protection of the Company’s and any of its subsidiaries’ interests as described in this Agreement. 
 28.
Condition to Return Signed Agreement. This Agreement shall be null and void unless the Grantee signs, dates, and returns this Agreement to the Company on or before
            . 
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties
hereto have acknowledged their rights and obligations under this Agreement as of the Grant Date, by signing the Cover Page.

 Exhibit A 
 Performance Criteria 
 So long as the Company achieves Operating Income for the three-year

means the aggregate of (a) the earnings of the Company for such three-year period as reported on the Company’s Forms 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2013 (prepared in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles
of the U.S), and (b) the amounts paid pursuant to the Career Education Corporation Annual Incentive Award Program and the Annual Incentive Award Program for Key Executives, in each case for the three-year period 2011-2013, as from time to
time established under the Plan. 

  
 7Form of Restricted Stock Agreement

 Exhibit 10.1 
 MASTEC, INC. 
 RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT 

1. Award of Shares. MasTec, Inc. (the “Company”) has awarded to the “Recipient” designated below, the
“Award” generally described in the Notice of Restricted Stock Award (the “Notice”), which is hereby incorporated by reference, subject to the terms and conditions of the Company’s 2003 Employee Stock Incentive Plan
(“Plan”). The Company and the Recipient agree that these Awards are governed by the terms and conditions of the Plan, as amended from time to time, which are incorporated herein in their entirety. Unless otherwise provided herein, terms
used herein that are defined in the Plan (or the Notice) and not defined herein shall have the meanings attributable thereto in the Plan (or the Notice). 
 2. Award Restrictions. 
 (a) The shares of restricted stock (the
“Restricted Stock”) covered by the Award shall vest on the vesting dates (each a “Vesting Date”) set forth below, provided that the Recipient continues to be employed by, or provide services to, the Company or a Related Company
through and until the applicable Vesting Date: 
  

			
	 Vesting Date
	 	 Number of Shares that Become Vested

		
	[            ]	 	[            ]
	[            ]	 	[            ]
	[            ]	 	[            ]

 (b) In the event that a Change in Control of the Company occurs during the period that the Recipient is
employed by, or providing services to, the Company or a Related Company, the shares of Restricted Stock subject to this Agreement shall become immediately vested as of the date of the Change in Control. 

(c) Any shares of Common Stock covered by the Award shall not be transferable by the Recipient by means of sale, assignment, exchange,
pledge, or otherwise, unless and until they become vested pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The naming of a Beneficiary under the Plan does not constitute a transfer. 
 3. Stock Certificates. 
 (a) The stock certificate(s) evidencing the
Restricted Stock shall be registered in the name of the Recipient as of the Date of Grant designated in the Notice. Physical possession or custody of such stock certificate(s) shall be retained by the Company until such time as the shares of Common
Stock become vested. Such stock certificate(s) shall be distributed to the Recipient or Beneficiary(ies) as soon as administratively practicable after the shares of Common Stock become vested. The Company reserves the right to place a legend on the
stock certificate(s) restricting the transferability of such certificate(s). 
 (b) During the period prior to vesting, the
Recipient shall be entitled to all rights of a shareholder of the Company with respect to the Restricted Stock, including the right to vote the shares and receive cash dividends. Any cash dividends declared with respect to any shares of Restricted
Stock shall be held in escrow by the Company (unsegregated as a part of its general assets) until such time as the Restricted Stock that such cash dividends are attributed to become vested shares of Common Stock, and if and to the extent that such
Restricted Stock is subsequently forfeited, the cash dividends attributable to the forfeited Restricted Stock shall be forfeited as well. Stock dividends declared by the Company will be characterized as Restricted Stock and will be subject to
vesting and be distributed at the same times as the Restricted Stock with respect to which they were declared as dividends. 

(c) The Recipient shall deposit with the Company stock powers or other instruments of transfer or assignment, duly endorsed in blank with
signature(s) guaranteed, corresponding to each certificate representing shares of Restricted Stock until such shares become vested. If the Recipient shall fail to provide the Company with any such stock power or other instrument of transfer or
assignment, the Recipient hereby irrevocably appoints the Secretary of the Company as his attorney-in-fact, with full power of appointment and substitution, to execute and deliver any such power or other instrument which may be necessary to
effectuate the transfer of the Restricted Stock (or assignment of distributions thereon) on the books and records of the Company. 

 (d) If the Company is authorized to issue shares without certificates, then the Company may,
in the discretion of the Committee, issue shares pursuant to this Agreement without certificates, in which case any references in this Agreement to certificates shall instead refer to whatever evidence may be issued to reflect the Recipient’s
ownership of the shares subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 
 4. Termination of Service. Upon
termination of the Recipient’s services for the Company and the Related Companies, for any reason, including, without limitation, death or Disability, any Restricted Stock that has not previously become vested shall be immediately forfeited and
revert back to the Company without any payment to the Recipient. In addition, the Committee retains the right to accelerate vesting of any Restricted Stock awarded under the Plan. 

5. Recapitalization, Mergers, Etc. As provided in the Plan, in the event of corporate transactions affecting the
Company’s outstanding Common Stock, such as recapitalizations or mergers, the Committee shall equitably adjust the number and kinds of shares subject to this Award in such manner as the Committee deems appropriate, may accelerate the vesting of
awards hereunder, and may take such other action as the Committee may determine to be appropriate pursuant to the Plan. 
 6.
Compliance with Securities Laws. It shall be a condition to the Recipient’s right to receive shares of Restricted Stock hereunder that the Committee may, in its discretion, require (a) that the shares of Restricted Stock
reserved for issue upon the grant of this award shall have been duly listed, upon official notice of issuance, upon any national securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Company’s Common Stock may then be listed or quoted,
(b) that either (i) a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 with respect to the shares shall be in effect, or (ii) in the opinion of counsel for the Company, the proposed purchase shall be exempt from registration
under that Act and the Recipient shall have made such undertakings and agreements with the Company as the Company may reasonably require, and (c) that such other steps, if any, as counsel for the Company shall consider necessary to comply with
any law applicable to the issue of such shares by the Company shall have been taken by the Company or the Recipient, or both. The certificates representing the shares granted under this Award may contain such legends as counsel for the Company shall
consider necessary to comply with any applicable law. 
 7. Administration. 

(a) The Committee shall have full authority and discretion to decide all matters relating to the administration and interpretation of
this Agreement. The Committee shall have full power and authority to pass and decide upon cases in conformity with the objectives of this Agreement under such rules as the Board of Directors of the Company may establish. 

(b) Any decision made or action taken by the Company, the Board of Directors, or the Committee arising out of, or in connection with, the
administration, interpretation, and effect of this Agreement shall be at their absolute discretion and will be conclusive and binding on all parties. No member of the Board of Directors, Committee, or employee of the Company shall be liable for any
act or action hereunder, whether of omission or commission, by the Recipient or by any agent to whom duties in connection with the administration of this Agreement have been delegated in accordance with the provision of this Agreement. 

8. Tax Matters; Section 83(b) Election. 
 (a) If the Recipient does not properly make the election described in Section 8(b) below, the Recipient shall, no later than the date or dates as of which the restrictions referred to in this
Agreement hereof shall lapse, pay to the Company, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Committee for payment of, any federal, state or local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to the Restricted Stock (including without
limitation the vesting thereof), and the Company shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct from any payment of any kind (including without limitation, the withholding of any shares that otherwise would be distributed to the
Recipient under this Agreement) otherwise due to Recipient any federal, state, or local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to the Restricted Stock. 
 (b) If the Recipient properly elects, within thirty (30) days of the Date of Grant, to include in gross income for federal income tax purposes an amount equal to the Fair Market Value (as of the Date
of Grant) of the Restricted Stock pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code, the Recipient shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Committee to pay to the Company any federal, state or local income taxes required to be withheld with respect to
the Restricted Stock. If the Recipient shall fail to make such tax payments as are required, the Company shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct from any payment of any kind (including without limitation, the withholding of
any shares that otherwise would be issued to the Recipient under this Agreement) otherwise due to the Recipient, any federal, state or local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to the Restricted Stock. 

(c) The Recipient may satisfy the withholding requirements pursuant to any one or combination of the following methods: 

(i) payment in cash; or 

 (ii) if and to the extent permitted by the Committee, payment by surrendering a number of
unrestricted previously held shares of Common Stock (free and clear of all liens and encumbrances), or the withholding of a number of shares of Common Stock that otherwise would be deliverable to the Recipient pursuant to this Award. The shares so
delivered or withheld must have an aggregate Fair Market Value on the date on which the shares of Restricted Stock become taxable equal to the minimum statutory amount, if any, required to be withheld for federal, state and/or local tax purposes
that are applicable to the Restricted Stock then subject to tax (or such other amount as the Committee determines will not result in additional compensation expense for financial accounting purposes under applicable financial accounting principles).
The Recipient may surrender shares of Common Stock either by attestation or by delivery of a certificate or certificates for shares duly endorsed for transfer to the Company, and if required with medallion level signature guarantee by a member firm
of a national stock exchange, by a national or state bank (or guaranteed or notarized in such other manner as the Committee may require). 
 (d) Tax consequences on the Recipient (including without limitation federal, state, local and foreign income tax consequences) with respect to the Restricted Stock (including without limitation the grant,
vesting and/or forfeiture thereof) are the sole responsibility of the Recipient. The Recipient shall consult with his or her own personal accountant(s) and/or tax advisor(s) regarding these matters, the making of a Section 83(b) election, and
the Recipient’s filing, withholding and payment (or tax liability) obligations. 
 9. Company Relation with

 10. Limit on Other Compensation Arrangements. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall preclude the Company or any Related Company from adopting or continuing in effect other or additional
compensation plans, agreements or arrangements, and any such plans, agreements and arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases or to specific persons.

relationship between the Company or any Related Company and the Recipient or any other person. To the extent that the Recipient or any other person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company or any Related Company pursuant to this

principal office, to such principal office, and, in the case of the Recipient, to the Recipient’s last permanent address as shown on the Company’s records, subject to the right of either party to designate some other address at any time
hereafter in a notice satisfying the requirements of this Section. 
 17. Section 409A. 

(a) It is intended that the Restricted Stock awarded pursuant to this Agreement be exempt from Section 409A of the Code
(“Section 409A”) because it is believed that the Agreement does not provide for a deferral of compensation and accordingly that the Agreement does not constitute a nonqualified deferred compensation plan within the meaning of
Section 409A. The provisions of this Agreement shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with that intention, and the provisions of this Agreement may not be amended, adjusted, assumed or substituted for, converted or otherwise modified
without the Recipient’s prior written consent if and to the extent that such amendment, adjustment, assumption or substitution, conversion or modification would cause the award to violate the requirements of Section 409A. 

 (b) In the event that either the Company or the Recipient believes, at any time, that any
benefit or right under this Agreement is subject to Section 409A, and does not comply with the requirements of Section 409A, it shall promptly advise the other and the Company and the Recipient shall negotiate reasonably and in good faith
to amend the terms of such benefits and rights, if such an amendment may be made in a commercially reasonable manner, such that they comply with Section 409A with the most limited possible economic affect on the Recipient and on the Company.

 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company does not make any representation to the Recipient that the shares of
Restricted Stock awarded pursuant to this Agreement are exempt from, or satisfy, the requirements of Section 409A, and the Company shall have no liability or other obligation to indemnify or hold harmless the Recipient or any Beneficiary for
any tax, additional tax, interest or penalties that the Recipient or any Beneficiary may incur in the event that any provision of this Agreement, or any amendment or modification thereof or any other action taken with respect thereto is deemed to
violate any of the requirements of Section 409A. 
 18. Non-Waiver of Breach. The waiver by any party hereto
of the other party’s prompt and complete performance, or breach or violation, of any term or provision of this Agreement shall be effected solely in a writing signed by such party, and shall not operate nor be construed as a waiver of any
subsequent breach or violation, and the waiver by any party hereto to exercise any right or remedy which he or it may possess shall not operate nor be construed as the waiver of such right or remedy by such party, or as a bar to the exercise of such
right or remedy by such party, upon the occurrence of any subsequent breach or violation. 
 19. Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument and agreement. 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement on this 1st day of March, 2011.
