The Participant acknowledges and agrees that any termination of the restrictions on the Restricted Stock Units awarded herein is earned only by continuing as an employee of the Company or an affiliate at the will of the Company or such affiliate, or satisfaction of any other applicable terms and conditions contained in the Plan and this Agreement, and not through the act of being hired or being granted the Award.

8.   The Plan. This Agreement is subject to all the terms, provisions and conditions of the Plan, which are incorporated herein by reference, and to such regulations as may from time to time be adopted by the Committee.
