Terms and Conditions to the Performance-Based Restricted
Share Units Certificate

with Time Vesting

 

ARTICLE I

TERMS OF RESTRICTED SHARE UNITS

Section 1.1     Grant
of Performance-Based Restricted Share Units with Time Vesting.  The Performance-Based Restricted Share Units
with Time Vesting (the “Restricted Share Units”) have been awarded to the
Participant subject to the terms and conditions contained in (A) the
certificate for the [Insert Date of Grant]
grant of Restricted Share Units provided simultaneously on-line or attached
hereto (the “Restricted Share Units Certificate”) and the Terms and Conditions
contained herein (collectively, the “Certificate”) and (B) the Plan, the terms
of which are hereby incorporated by reference. 
A copy of the Plan is being provided simultaneously on-line or attached
hereto.  Capitalized terms that are not
otherwise defined herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Restricted
Share Units Certificate or the Plan. 
Each Restricted Share Unit shall entitle the Participant to receive one
share of Class B Common Stock, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in
the Certificate and the Plan. 

Section 1.2     Terms
of Restricted Share Units.

(a)           Vesting.  Subject to the other terms and conditions
contained in the Certificate and in the Plan and subject to the Committee
certifying that the performance goal (the “Performance Goal”) described below
established by the Committee for the [Insert Date of Period] (the “Performance
Period”) has been achieved, the Restricted Share Units shall vest in four equal
annual installments as follows: (i) the first installment shall vest on the
later of the date on which the Committee so certifies that the Performance Goal
has been achieved and the first anniversary of the Date of Grant; and (ii) the
second, third and fourth installments shall vest, respectively, on the second,
third, and fourth anniversaries of the Date of Grant.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
this Section 1.2(d), in the event that the Committee determines that the
Performance Goal established for the Restricted Share Units for the Performance
Period has not been achieved, the Restricted Share Units will not vest, and
will be immediately cancelled in their entirety and the Participant’s rights
with respect to such Restricted Share Units will cease.  The Performance Goal for the Performance
Period is [Insert Description of Performance Goal].

(b)           Settlement.  On the date each portion of the Restricted
Share Units vest, all restrictions contained in the Certificate and in the Plan
shall lapse as to that portion of the Restricted Share Units and that portion
of the vested Restricted Share Units shall be payable in shares of Class B
Common Stock, which may be evidenced in such manner as the Committee in its
discretion shall deem appropriate, including, without limitation, book-entry
registration.  Settlement of vested
Restricted Share Units shall be made as soon as practicable after the vesting
dates. Such shares of Class B Common Stock shall bear such legends as the
Committee, in its sole discretion, may determine to be necessary or advisable
in order to comply with applicable U.S. federal or state securities laws.  If permitted by the Committee, the
Participant may elect to defer settlement of the Restricted Share Units in
accordance with procedures established by the Committee from time to time.

 

(c)           Dividend Equivalents.  Dividend Equivalents shall accrue on the
Restricted Share Units until the Restricted Share Units are settled.  The Company shall credit the accrual of the
Dividend Equivalents to the Participant’s account at such time and in such
manner as determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion.  The Company shall maintain a bookkeeping
record with respect to the amount of the Dividend Equivalents credited to the
Participant’s account.  Accrued Dividend
Equivalents that have been credited to the Participant’s account shall be paid
in cash through payroll when the Restricted Share Units are settled.  Accrued Dividend Equivalents that have been
credited to the Participant’s account will not be paid with respect to any
Restricted Share Units that do not vest and are cancelled.

(d)           Termination of Employment,
Retirement, Permanent Disability or Death. 
In the event that (i) the Participant’s employment with the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries ends by reason of voluntary termination by the
Participant, termination by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries other than a
Termination for Cause, termination by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
due to a Termination for Cause or the Participant’s Retirement, or (ii) the
Participant’s Permanent Disability or death occurs, prior to the date or dates
on which the Restricted Share Units vest in accordance with Section 1.2(a)
hereof, the Participant shall forfeit all unvested Restricted Share Units as of
the date of such event, unless the Committee determines otherwise and provides
that some or all of such Participant’s unvested Restricted Share Units shall
vest as of the date of such event, in which case, shares of Class B Common
Stock shall be delivered in accordance with Section 1.2(b) hereof, to the
Participant or, in the case of the Participant’s death, to the person or
persons who acquired the right to receive such certificates by will or the laws
of descent and distribution.  A “termination
of employment” occurs, for purposes of the Restricted Share Units, when a
Participant is no longer an employee of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries.  Unless the Committee determines
otherwise, the employment of a Participant who works for a Subsidiary shall
terminate, for purposes of the Restricted Share Units, on the date on which the
Participant’s employing company ceases to be a Subsidiary.

ARTICLE II

EFFECT OF CERTAIN CORPORATE CHANGES

In the event of a merger,
consolidation, stock split, reverse stock split, dividend, distribution,
combination, reclassification, reorganization, split-up, spin-off or
recapitalization that changes the character or amount of the Class B Common
Stock or any other changes in the corporate structure, equity securities or
capital structure of the Company, the Committee shall make such adjustments, if
any, to the number and kind of securities subject to the Restricted Share
Units, as it deems appropriate. The Committee may, in its sole discretion, also
make such other adjustments as it deems appropriate in order to preserve the
benefits or potential benefits

ARTICLE IV

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 4.1     No
Rights to Awards or Continued Employment. 
Neither the Certificate, the Plan nor any action taken in accordance
with such documents shall confer upon the Participant any right to be employed
by or to continue in the employment of the Company or any Subsidiary, nor to be
entitled to any remuneration or benefits not set forth in the Plan or the Certificate,
including the right to receive any future awards under the Plan or any other
plan of the Company or any Subsidiary or interfere with or limit the right of
the Company or any Subsidiary to modify the terms of or terminate the
Participant’s employment at any time for any reason.

Section 4.2     Restriction
on Transfer.  The rights of the
Participant with respect to the Restricted Share Units shall be exercisable
during the Participant’s lifetime only by the Participant and shall not be
transferable by the Participant to whom the Restricted Share Units are granted,
except by will or the laws of descent and distribution; provided that the
Committee may permit other transferability, subject to any conditions and
limitations that it may, in its sole discretion, impose.

Section 4.3     Taxes.  The Company or a Subsidiary, as appropriate,
shall be entitled to withhold from any payment made under the Plan to the
Participant or a Participant’s estate or any permitted transferee an amount
sufficient to satisfy any federal, state, local and/or other tax withholding
requirement.  The Committee, in its
discretion, may, as a condition to the settlement of the Restricted Share
Units, payment of the Dividend Equivalents or delivery of any shares of Class B
Common Stock, require that an additional amount be paid in cash equal to the
amount of any federal, state, local and/or other tax withholding requirement
or, alternatively, permit the Participant to satisfy such tax withholding
requirement by withholding shares of Class B Common Stock subject to the
applicable Restricted Share Units and/or Dividend Equivalents. 

Section 4.4     Stockholder
Rights.  The grant of Restricted
Share Units under the Certificate shall not entitle the Participant or a
Participant’s estate or any permitted transferee to any rights of a holder of
shares of Class B Common Stock, other than when and until the Participant, the
Participant’s estate or the permitted transferee is registered on the books and
records of the Company as a stockholder and shares are delivered to such party
upon settlement of the Restricted Share Units or payment of the Dividend
Equivalents. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee in its discretion, no
adjustment shall be made for dividends or distributions or other rights in respect
of any shares of Class B Common Stock for which the record date is prior to the
date on which the Participant, a Participant’s estate or any permitted
transferee shall become the holder of such shares of Class B Common Stock.

Section 4.5     No
Restriction on Right of Company to Effect Corporate Changes.  Neither the Plan nor the Certificate shall
affect in any way the right or power of the Company or its stockholders to make
or authorize any or all adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations or
other changes in the Company’s capital structure or its business, or any merger
or consolidation 

 

5

 

of the Company, or any
issue of stock or of options, warrants or rights to purchase stock or of bonds,
debentures, preferred or prior preference stocks whose rights are superior to
or affect the Class B Common Stock or the rights thereof or which are
convertible into or exchangeable for Class B Common Stock, or the dissolution
or liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of
its assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a
similar character or otherwise.

 

Section 4.6     Section
409A.  If any provision of the
Certificate contravenes any regulations or Treasury guidance promulgated under
Section 409A or could cause the Participant to recognize income for federal
income tax purposes with respect to any Restricted Share Units before such
Restricted Share Units are settled or to be subject to interest and penalties under
Section 409A, such provision of the Certificate shall be modified to maintain,
to the maximum extent practicable, the original intent of the applicable
provision without violating the provisions of Section 409A or causing such
income recognition or imposition of interest or penalties.  Moreover, any discretionary authority that
the Board or the Committee may have pursuant to the Certificate shall not be
applicable to Restricted Share Units that are subject to Section 409A to the
extent such discretionary authority will contravene Section 409A.

Section 4.7     Amendment.  The Committee shall have broad authority to
amend the Certificate without approval of the Participant to the extent
necessary or desirable (i) to comply with, or take into account changes
in, applicable tax laws, securities laws, accounting rules and other applicable
laws, rules and regulations or (ii) to ensure that the Participant does
not recognize income for federal income tax purposes with respect to any
Restricted Share Units before such Restricted Share Units are settled and is
not subject to interest and penalties under Section 409A with respect to any
Restricted Share Units.

Section 4.8     Interpretation.  In the event of any conflict between the
provisions of the Certificate (including the definitions set forth herein) and
those of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan will control.  Additionally, in the event of a conflict or
ambiguity between the provisions of the Certificate and the provisions of any
employment agreement that is in effect and applicable to the Participant with
respect to the Restricted Share Units, the provisions of such employment
agreement shall be deemed controlling to the extent such provisions are
consistent with the provisions of the Plan and are more favorable to the
Participant than the provisions of the Certificate.

Section 4.9     Breach
of Covenants.  In the event that the
Committee makes a good faith determination that the Participant committed a
material breach of the restrictive covenants relating to non-competition, no
solicitation of employees, confidential information or proprietary property in
any employment or other agreement applicable to the Participant during the one
year period after termination of the Participant’s employment with the Company
or a Subsidiary for any reason, the Participant will be required to return the
shares of Class B Common Stock received by him or her in settlement of the
Restricted Share Units and the cash payment of the Dividend Equivalents or, if the
shares of Class B Common Stock received in settlement of the Restricted Share
Units were sold by the Participant, return any proceeds realized on the sale of
such shares of Class B Common Stock during the one year period prior to such
breach or any time after such breach occurs. 

 

6

 

Section 4.10   Governmental
Regulations.  The Restricted Share
Units shall be subject to all applicable rules and regulations of governmental
or other authorities.

Section 4.11   Headings.  The headings of articles and sections herein
are included solely for convenience of reference and shall not affect the
meaning of any of the provisions of the Certificate.

Section 4.12   Governing
Law.  The Certificate and all rights
hereunder shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the
State of Delaware.

and Conditions to the Restricted Share Units Certificate

 

ARTICLE I

 

TERMS OF RESTRICTED SHARE UNITS

 

 

                Section
1.1  Grant of Restricted Share Units.  The Restricted Share Units (the “Restricted
Share Units”) have been awarded to the Participant subject to the terms and
conditions contained in (A) the certificate for the [Insert Date
of Grant] grant of Restricted Share Units provided simultaneously
on-line or attached hereto (the “Restricted Share Units Certificate”) and the
Terms and Conditions contained herein (collectively, the “Certificate”) and (B)
the Plan, the terms of which are hereby incorporated by reference.  A copy of the Plan is being provided
simultaneously on-line or attached hereto. 
Capitalized terms that are not otherwise defined herein have the
meanings assigned to them in the Restricted Share Units Certificate or the
Plan.  Each Restricted Share Unit shall
entitle the Participant to receive one share of Class B Common Stock, subject
to the terms and conditions set forth in the Certificate and the Plan.

 

                Section
1.2  Terms of Restricted Share Units.

 

                (a)  Vesting.  Subject to the other terms and conditions
contained in the Certificate and in the Plan, the Restricted Share Units shall
vest in four installments of an equal whole number of Restricted Share Units on
each of the first, second, third and fourth anniversary of the Date of Grant
(any remaining Restricted Share Units shall vest on whichever of the preceding
vesting dates shall be determined by the Company in accordance with its
customary procedures).

 

                (b)  Settlement.  On the date each portion of the Restricted
Share Units vest, all restrictions contained in the Certificate and in the Plan
shall lapse as to that portion of the Restricted Share Units and that portion
of the vested Restricted Share Units shall be payable in shares of Class B
Common Stock, which may be evidenced in such manner as the Committee in its
discretion shall deem appropriate, including, without limitation, book-entry
registration. Settlement of vested Restricted Share Units shall be made as soon
as practicable after the vesting dates.  Such
shares of Class B Common Stock shall bear such legends as the Committee, in its
sole discretion, may determine to be necessary or advisable in order to comply
with applicable U.S. federal or state securities laws.  If permitted by the Committee, the
Participant may elect to defer settlement of the Restricted Share Units in
accordance with procedures established by the Committee from time to time.

 

                (c)  Dividend Equivalents.  Dividend Equivalents shall accrue on the
Restricted Share Units until the Restricted Share Units are settled.  The Company shall credit the accrual of the
Dividend Equivalents to the Participant’s account at such time and in such
manner as determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion.  The Company shall maintain a bookkeeping
record with respect to the amount of the Dividend Equivalents credited to the Participant’s
account.  Accrued Dividend Equivalents
that have been credited 

 

 

to
the Participant’s account shall be paid in cash through payroll when the
Restricted Share Units are settled. 
Accrued Dividend Equivalents that have been credited to the Participant’s
account will not be paid with respect to any Restricted Share Units that do not
vest and are cancelled.

                (d)  Termination of Employment, Retirement,
Permanent Disability or Death.  In
the event that (i) the Participant’s employment with the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries ends by reason of voluntary termination by the Participant,
termination by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries other than a Termination
for Cause, termination by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries due to a
Termination for Cause or the Participant’s Retirement, or (ii) the Participant’s
Permanent Disability or death occurs, prior to the date or dates on which the
Restricted Share Units vest in accordance with Section 1.2(a) hereof, the
Participant shall forfeit all unvested Restricted Share Units as of the date of
such event, unless the Committee determines otherwise and provides that some or
all of such Participant’s unvested Restricted Share Units shall vest as of the
date of such event, in which case, shares of Class B Common Stock shall be
delivered in accordance with Section 1.2(b) hereof, to the Participant or, in
the case of the Participant’s death, to the person or persons who acquired the
right to receive such certificates by will or the laws of descent and
distribution.  A “termination of
employment” occurs, for purposes of the Restricted Share Units, when a
Participant is no longer an employee of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries.  Unless the Committee
determines otherwise, the employment of a Participant who works for a
Subsidiary shall terminate, for purposes of the Restricted Share Units, on the
date on which the Participant’s employing company ceases to be a Subsidiary.

 

ARTICLE II

 

EFFECT OF CERTAIN CORPORATE CHANGES

 

                In the event of a merger, consolidation, stock split,
reverse stock split, dividend, distribution, combination, reclassification,
reorganization, split-up, spin-off or recapitalization that changes the
character or amount of the Class B Common Stock or any other changes in the
corporate structure, equity securities or capital structure of the Company, the
Committee shall make such adjustments, if any, to the number and kind of
securities subject to the Restricted Share Units, as it deems appropriate. The
Committee may, in its sole discretion, also make such other adjustments as it
deems appropriate in order to preserve the benefits or potential benefits
intended to be made available hereunder. 
Such determinations by the Committee shall be conclusive and binding on
all persons for all purposes.

ARTICLE IV

 

MISCELLANEOUS

 

             Section 4.1  No
Rights to Awards or Continued Employment. 
Neither the Certificate, the Plan nor any action taken in accordance
with such documents shall confer upon the Participant any right to be employed
by or to continue in the employment of the Company or any Subsidiary, nor to be
entitled to any remuneration or benefits not set forth in the Plan or the
Certificate, including the right to receive any future awards under the Plan or
any other plan of the Company or any Subsidiary or interfere with or limit the
right of the Company or any Subsidiary to modify the terms of or terminate the
Participant’s employment at any time for any reason.

 

             Section 4.2 Restriction on Transfer.  The rights of the Participant with respect to
the Restricted Share Units shall be exercisable during the Participant’s
lifetime only by the Participant and shall not be transferable by the
Participant to whom the Restricted Share Units are granted, except by will or
the laws of descent and distribution; provided that the Committee may
permit other transferability, subject to any conditions and limitations that it
may, in its sole discretion, impose.

 

Section
4.3  Taxes.  The Company or a Subsidiary, as appropriate,
shall be entitled to withhold from any payment made under the Plan to the
Participant or a Participant’s estate or any permitted transferee an amount
sufficient to satisfy any federal, state, local and/or other tax withholding
requirement.  The Committee, in its
discretion, may, as a condition to the settlement of the Restricted Share Units,
payment of the Dividend Equivalents or delivery of any shares of Class B Common
Stock, require that an additional amount be paid in cash equal to the amount of
any federal, state, local and/or other tax withholding requirement or,
alternatively, permit the Participant to satisfy such tax withholding
requirement by withholding shares of Class B Common Stock subject to the applicable
Restricted Share Units and/or Dividend Equivalents.

 

             Section 4.4  Stockholder
Rights.  The grant of Restricted
Share Units under the Certificate shall not entitle the Participant or a
Participant’s estate or any permitted transferee to any rights of a holder of
shares of Class B Common Stock, other than when and until the Participant, the
Participant’s estate or the permitted transferee is registered on the books and
records of the Company as a stockholder and shares are delivered to such party
upon settlement of the Restricted Share Units or payment of the Dividend
Equivalents.  Unless otherwise determined
by the Committee in its discretion, no adjustment shall be made for dividends
or distributions or other rights in respect of any shares of Class B Common
Stock for which the record date is prior to the date on which the Participant,
a Participant’s estate or any permitted transferee shall become the holder of
such shares of Class B Common Stock.

Section 4.5  No Restriction on Right of Company to
Effect Corporate Changes.  Neither
the Plan nor the Certificate shall affect in any way the right or power of the
Company or its stockholders to make or authorize any or all adjustments,
recapitalizations, reorganizations or other changes in the Company’s capital
structure or its business, or any merger or consolidation of the Company, or
any issue of stock or of options, warrants or rights to purchase stock or of
bonds, debentures, preferred or prior preference stocks whose rights are
superior to or affect the Class B Common Stock or the rights thereof or which
are convertible into or exchangeable for Class B Common Stock, or the
dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or
any part of its assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding,
whether of a similar character or otherwise.

 

                Section
4.6  Section 409A.  If any provision of the Certificate
contravenes any regulations or Treasury guidance promulgated under Section 409A
or could cause the Participant to recognize income for federal income tax
purposes with respect to any Restricted Share Units before such Restricted
Share Units are settled or to be subject to interest and penalties under
Section 409A, such provision of the Certificate shall be modified to maintain,
to the maximum extent practicable, the original intent of the applicable
provision without violating the provisions of Section 409A or causing such
income recognition or imposition of interest or penalties.  Moreover, any discretionary authority that
the Board or the Committee may have pursuant to the Certificate shall not be
applicable to Restricted Share Units that are subject to Section 409A to the
extent such discretionary authority will contravene Section 409A.

 

                Section
4.7 Amendment.  The Committee
shall have broad authority to amend the Certificate without approval of the
Participant to the extent necessary or desirable (i) to comply with, or
take into account changes in, applicable tax laws, securities laws, accounting
rules and other applicable laws, rules and regulations or (ii) to ensure
that the Participant does not recognize income for federal income tax purposes
with respect to any Restricted Share Units before such Restricted Share Units
are settled and is not subject to interest and penalties under Section 409A
with respect to any Restricted Share Units.

 

                Section
4.8  Interpretation.  In the event of any conflict between the
provisions of the Certificate (including the definitions set forth herein) and
those of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan will control.  Additionally, in the event of a conflict or
ambiguity between the provisions of the Certificate and the provisions of any
employment agreement that is in effect and applicable to the Participant with
respect to the Restricted Share Units, the provisions of such employment
agreement shall be deemed controlling to the extent such provisions are
consistent with the provisions of the Plan and are more favorable to the
Participant than the provisions of the Certificate.

 

                Section
4.9  Breach of Covenants.  In the event that the Committee makes a good
faith determination that the Participant committed a material breach of the
restrictive covenants relating to non-competition, no solicitation of
employees, confidential information or proprietary property in any employment
or other agreement applicable to the Participant during the one year period
after termination of the Participant’s employment with the Company or a
Subsidiary for any reason, the Participant will be required to return the
shares of Class B Common Stock received by him or her in settlement of the
Restricted Share Units and the cash payment of the Dividend Equivalents or, if
the shares of Class B Common Stock received in settlement of the Restricted
Share Units were sold by the Participant, return any proceeds realized on the
sale of such shares of Class B Common Stock during the one year period prior to
such breach or any time after such breach occurs.

 

5

 

                Section
4.10  Governmental Regulations.  The Restricted Share Units shall be subject
to all applicable rules and regulations of governmental or other authorities.

 

                Section
4.11  Headings.  The headings of articles and sections herein
are included solely for convenience of reference and shall not affect the
meaning of any of the provisions of the Certificate.

 

                Section
4.12  Governing Law.  The Certificate and all rights hereunder
shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of
Delaware.
