R.H. DONNELLEY CORPORATION

FORM OF

STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT

	 	 	 
	Date of Issuance: January 3, 2003

	 	Certificate No. ____________

     FOR VALUE RECEIVED, R.H. Donnelley Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby
grants to
____________ or its registered assigns (the “Registered Holder”) the right to
purchase from the Company
____________ shares of the Company’s Common Stock at the Exercise Price.
This Warrant is one of several warrants (collectively, the “Series 2 Warrants”) issued by the
Company to certain investors (the “Investors”) pursuant to the Preferred Stock and Warrant Purchase
Agreement, dated as of September 21, 2002 (as amended, the “Purchase Agreement”). Certain
capitalized terms used herein are defined in Section 4 and capitalized terms used in this
Warrant but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Purchase Agreement.
The amount and kind of securities obtainable pursuant to the purchase rights granted hereunder and
the purchase price for such securities are subject to adjustment pursuant to the provisions
contained in this Warrant.

     This Warrant is subject to the following provisions:

     Section 1. Exercise of Warrant. (a) Exercise Period. The Registered Holder
may exercise, in whole or in part (but not as to a fractional share of Common Stock), the purchase
rights represented by this Warrant at any time and from time to time after the Date of Issuance to
and including the fifth anniversary thereof (the “Exercise Period”).

          (a) Exercise Procedure. (i) This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised when
the Company has received all of the following items (the “Exercise Time”):

     (A) a completed Exercise Agreement, as defined in Section 1(c), executed by the
Person exercising all or part of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant (the
“Purchaser”);

     (B) this Warrant;

     (C) if this Warrant is not registered in the name of the Purchaser, an Assignment or
Assignments in the form set forth in Exhibit I evidencing the assignment of this
Warrant to the Purchaser, in which case the Registered Holder shall have complied with the
provisions set forth in Section 6; and

     (D) either (1) a check payable to the Company in an amount equal to the product of the
Exercise Price multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock being

 

purchased upon such exercise (the “Aggregate Exercise Price”), or (2) a written notice
to the Company that the Purchaser is exercising the Warrant (or a portion thereof) by
authorizing the Company to withhold from issuance a number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon such exercise of the Warrant that when multiplied by the Current Market Price
of the Common Stock is equal to the Aggregate Exercise Price (which withheld shares shall no
longer be issuable under this Warrant).

          (ii) Certificates for shares of Common Stock purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be
delivered by the Company to the Purchaser within five Business Days after the date on which the
Exercise Time occurs. Unless this Warrant has expired or all of the purchase rights represented
hereby have been exercised, the Company shall prepare a new Warrant, substantially identical
hereto, representing the purchase rights formerly represented by this Warrant that have not expired
or been exercised and shall within such five-Business Day period deliver such new Warrant to the
Person designated for delivery in the Exercise Agreement.

          (iii) The Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have been
issued to the Purchaser at the Exercise Time, and the Purchaser shall be deemed for all purposes to
have become the record holder of such Common Stock as of the Exercise Time.

          (iv) The issuance of certificates for shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant
shall be made without charge to the Registered Holder or the Purchaser for any issuance tax in
respect thereof if issued to the Registered Holder or other cost incurred by the Company in
connection with such exercise and the related issuance of shares of Common Stock. Each share of
Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall upon payment of the Exercise Price
therefor, be fully paid and nonassessable and free from all liens and charges with respect to the
issuance thereof.

          (v) The Company shall not close its books against the transfer of this Warrant or of any share
of Common Stock issued or issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant in any manner that interferes
with the timely and proper exercise of this Warrant.

          (vi) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if an exercise of any portion of this Warrant
is to be made in connection with a registered public offering or the sale of the Company, the
exercise of any portion of this Warrant may, at the election of the holder hereof, be conditioned
upon the consummation of the public offering or sale of the Company in which case such exercise
shall not be deemed to be effective until the consummation of such transaction.

          (vii) The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but
unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of issuance upon the exercise of the Series
2 Warrants, such number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of all outstanding
Series 2 Warrants. The Company shall take all such actions as may be necessary to assure that all
such shares of Common Stock may be so issued without violation of any law or governmental
regulation applicable to the Company or any requirements of any domestic securities exchange upon
which shares of Common Stock may be listed (except for official notice of issuance that shall be
immediately delivered by the Company upon each such

2

 

issuance). The Company shall not take any action that would cause the number of authorized
but unissued shares of Common Stock to be less than the number of such shares required to be
reserved hereunder for issuance upon exercise of the Series 2 Warrants.

          (b) Exercise Agreement. Upon any exercise of this Warrant, the Exercise Agreement
shall be substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit II (the “Exercise Agreement”),
except that if the shares of Common Stock are not to be issued in the name of the Person in whose
name this Warrant is registered, the Exercise Agreement shall also state the name of the Person to
whom the certificates for the shares of Common Stock are to be issued, and if the number of shares
of Common Stock to be issued does not include all the shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder,
it shall also state the name of the Person to whom a new Warrant for the unexercised portion of the
purchase rights hereunder is to be delivered. Such Exercise Agreement shall be dated the actual
date of execution thereof.

          (c) Fractional Shares. If a fractional share of Common Stock would be issuable upon
exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant, the Company shall, unless prohibited
by any agreement to which the Company is a party, within five Business Days after the date on which
the Exercise Time occurs, deliver to the Purchaser a check payable to the Purchaser in lieu of such
fractional share in an amount equal to the difference between Current Market Price of such
fractional share as of the date on which the Exercise Time occurs and the Exercise Price of such
fractional share.

          Section 2. Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Shares. In order to prevent
dilution of the purchase rights granted under this Warrant, the Exercise Price shall be subject to
adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 2, and the number of shares of
Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to
time as provided in this Section 2.

          (a) The Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment as follows:

          (i) In case the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the Date of Issuance (A)
pay a dividend or make a distribution in shares of Common Stock or Convertible Securities into
Common Stock, (B) subdivide or reclassify the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater
number of shares of Common Stock, (C) combine or reclassify the outstanding shares of Common Stock
into a smaller number of shares, or (D) otherwise issue by reclassification of the shares of Common
Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, then, and in each such case, the Exercise Price
in effect immediately prior to such action and the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon
exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted so that the holder of this Warrant shall
be entitled to receive the number of shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company upon
exercise of this Warrant which such holder would have owned or have been entitled to receive after
the happening of any of the events described above had such Warrant been exercised immediately
prior to the happening of such event or the record date therefor, whichever is earlier. An
adjustment made pursuant to this Section 2(a)(i) shall become applicable (x) in the case of
any such dividend or distribution, immediately after the close of business on the record date for
the determination of holders of shares of Common Stock entitled to receive such dividend or
distribution and (y) in the case of any such subdivision, reclassification or combination, at the
close of business on the

3

 

day upon which such corporate action becomes effective. Such adjustment shall be made
successively.

          (ii) In case the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the Date of Issuance
declare, order, pay or make a dividend or other distribution (including without limitation any
distribution of stock or other securities, evidences of indebtedness, property or assets or rights
or warrants to subscribe for securities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) on its Common
Stock (other than (A) regular quarterly dividends payable in cash or (B) dividends or distributions
of shares of Common Stock referred to in Section 2(a)(i)) (any one of the foregoing other
than the items specified in clause (A) or (B) referred to as “Securities or Assets”), then and in
each such case, unless the Company elects to reserve shares or other units of such Securities or
Assets for distribution to the holders of the Series 2 Warrants upon the exercise of such Series 2
Warrants so that any such holder exercising its Series 2 Warrants will receive upon such exercise,
in addition to the shares of the Common Stock to which such holder is entitled, the amount and kind
of such Securities or Assets which such holder would have received if such holder had, immediately
prior to the record date for the distribution of the Securities or Assets, exercised its Warrant
for Common Stock, the Exercise Price shall be adjusted so that such Exercise Price shall equal the
price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the date of such
distribution by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the Current Market Price of the Common
Stock on such record date less the then fair market value (as determined by the Board in good
faith) of the portion of the capital stock or assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed or
of such rights or warrants applicable to one share of Common Stock, and of which the denominator
shall be the Current Market Price of the Common Stock on such record date; provided,
however, that if the then fair market value (as so determined) of the portion of the
Securities or Assets so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock is equal to or greater
than the Current Market Price of the Common Stock on the record date mentioned above, in lieu of
the foregoing adjustment, adequate provision shall be made so that each holder of the Series 2
Warrants shall have the right to receive the amount and kind of Securities or Assets which such
holder would have received had such holder exercised its Warrant immediately prior to the record
date for the distribution of the Securities or Assets. Such adjustment shall become effective
immediately after the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such
distribution.

          (iii) In case the Company shall issue or sell any Common Stock (or rights, Options, warrants
or other Convertible Securities) (collectively, “Additional Shares”) at any time after the date
hereof until January 3, 2006 without consideration or for a consideration per share (or having a
exercise, exchange or exercise price per share) (such per share amount, the “Sale Price”) less than
the greater of (A) the Current Market Price per share of Common Stock on the date preceding the
earlier of the issuance or public announcement of the issuance of such Additional Shares of Common
Stock and (B) the Exercise Price as of the date of such issuance of shares (or, in the case of
Convertible Securities, less than the greater of the Current Market Price or the Exercise Price, as
the case may be, as of the date of issuance of the rights, Options, warrants or other securities in
respect of which shares of Common Stock were issued) then, and in each such case, the Exercise
Price shall be reduced to an amount determined by multiplying (A) the Exercise Price in effect on
the day immediately prior to such date by (B) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the sum
of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such sale or issuance
multiplied by the greater of (a) the then applicable

4

 

Exercise Price per share and (b) the Current Market Price per share of Common Stock on the
date preceding the earlier of the issuance or public announcement of the issuance of such
Additional Shares of Common Stock (the greater of (a) and (b) above hereinafter referred to as the
“Adjustment Price”) and (2) the aggregate consideration receivable by the Company for the total
number of shares of Common Stock so issued (or into or for which the rights, Options, warrants or
other securities are convertible, exercisable or exchangeable), and the denominator of which shall
equal to the product of (I) the sum of (x) the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to such sale or issue and (y) the number of additional shares of Common Stock
issued (or into or for which the rights, Options, warrants or other securities may be converted,
exercised or exchanged), multiplied by (II) the Adjustment Price. In case any portion of the
consideration to be received by the Company shall be in a form other than cash, the fair market
value of such noncash consideration shall be utilized in the foregoing computation. Such fair
market value shall be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors. Upon each such
adjustment of the Exercise Price hereunder, the number of Shares of Common Stock acquirable upon
exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted to the number of shares determined by multiplying the
Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of shares of Common
Stock acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing
the product thereof by the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment. An adjustment made
pursuant to this subsection (iii) shall be made on the next Business Day following the date on
which any such issuance is made and shall be effective retroactively to the close of business on
the date of such issuance. For purposes of this subsection (iii), the aggregate consideration
receivable by the Company in connection with the issuance of shares of Common Stock or of rights,
warrants or other Convertible Securities shall be deemed to be equal to the sum of the aggregate
offering price (before deduction of underwriting discounts or commissions and expenses payable to
third parties) of all such Common Stock, rights, warrants and Convertible Securities plus the
aggregate amount (as determined on the date of issuance), if any, payable upon exercise or exercise
of any such rights, warrants and Convertible Securities into shares of Common Stock. If,
subsequent to the date of issuance of such right, warrants or other Convertible Securities, the
conversion or exercise price thereof is reduced, such aggregate amount shall be recalculated and
the Exercise Price and the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of this
Warrant shall be adjusted retroactively to give effect to such reduction. On the expiration of any
option or the termination of any right to convert or exchange any securities into Additional
Shares, the Exercise Price then in effect hereunder shall forthwith be increased to the Exercise
Price which would have been in effect at the time of such expiration or termination (but taking
into account other adjustments or potential made following the time of issuance of such Options or
securities) had such option or security, to the extent outstanding immediately prior to such
expiration or termination, never been issued and the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable
upon exercise of this Warrant shall be correspondingly adjusted. If Common Stock is sold as a unit
with other securities, the aggregate consideration received for such Common Stock shall be deemed
to be net of the fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors in good faith) of such
other securities. The issuance or reissuance of (A) any shares of Common Stock or rights, warrants
or other Convertible Securities (whether treasury shares or newly issued shares) (1) pursuant to a
dividend or distribution on, or subdivision, combination or reclassification of, the outstanding
shares of Common Stock requiring an adjustment in the Exercise Price pursuant to subsection (i) of
this Section 2(a); (2) pursuant to any restricted stock or stock option plan or program of
the

5

 

Company involving the grant of Options or rights to acquire shares of Common Stock after the
date hereof to directors, officers and employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries; (3) pursuant
to any option, warrant, right, or Convertible Security outstanding as of the Date of Issuance; (4)
pursuant to any securities issued to a bank or other similar financial institution solely in
connection with the Senior Credit Facility and the Senior Subordinated Credit Facility; or (5)
pursuant to an underwritten offering registered with the SEC if the offering price is greater than
the Exercise Price then in effect; (B) the Preferred Stock and any shares of Common Stock issuable
upon conversion or exercise thereof, or (C) the Series 2 Warrants and any shares of Common Stock
issuable upon exercise thereof, shall not be deemed to constitute an issuance of Common Stock or
Convertible Securities by the Company to which this subsection (iii) applies. No adjustment shall
be made pursuant to this subsection (iii) in connection with any transaction to which Section
2(b) applies.

          (iv) For purposes of this Section 2(a), the number of shares of Common Stock at any
time outstanding shall not include any shares of Common Stock then owned or held by or for the
account of the Company.

          (v) All calculations of the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 2(a) shall be made
to the nearest one one-hundredth of a cent. Anything in this Section 2(a) to the contrary
notwithstanding, (A) the Company shall not be required to give effect to any adjustment in the
Exercise Price unless and until the net effect of one or more adjustments (each of which shall be
carried forward), determined as above provided, shall have resulted in a reduction of the Exercise
Price of at least 1%, and when the cumulative net effect of more than one adjustment so determined
shall be to reduce the Exercise Price by at least 1%, such reduction in Exercise Price shall
thereupon be given effect and (B) in no event shall the then current Exercise Price be increased as
a result of any calculation made at any time pursuant to this Section 2(a).

          (b) (i) In case of any capital reorganization or reclassification of outstanding shares of
Common Stock (other than a reclassification to which Section 2(a)(i) shall apply), or in
case of any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person (as defined below),
or in case of any sale or conveyance to another Person of all or substantially all of the assets of
the Company or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which share exchange the shares of Common
Stock are converted into other securities, cash or other property (each of the foregoing being
referred to as a “Transaction”), this Warrant shall thereafter be exercisable for, in lieu of the
shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise prior to consummation of such Transaction, the
kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property receivable (including cash)
upon the consummation of such Transaction by a holder of that number of shares of Common Stock into
which the Warrant was exercisable for immediately prior to such Transaction (including, on a pro
rata basis, the cash, securities or property received by holders of Common Stock in any tender or
exchange offer that is a step in such Transaction).

          (ii) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Company will not effect
any Transaction unless, prior to the consummation thereof, (A) the Surviving Person shall agree
that the Series 2 Warrants shall be treated as provided in paragraph (i) of this Section
2(b) and the agreements governing such Transaction shall so provide and (B) the Surviving
Person thereof shall assume, by written instrument mailed, by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to
each holder of the Series 2 Warrants at such holder’s address as it appears in the

6

 

records of the Company, the obligation to deliver to such holder such cash or other securities
to which, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such holder is entitled and such Surviving
Person shall have mailed, by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to each holder of the Series 2
Warrants at such holder’s address as it appears in the records of the Company, and an opinion of
independent counsel for such Person stating that such assumption agreement is a valid, binding and
enforceable agreement of the Surviving Person.

          (c) In any case, if necessary, appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by the
Board of Directors) shall be made in the application of the provisions set forth in this
Section 2 with respect to rights and interests thereafter of the holders of the Series 2
Warrants to the end that the provisions set forth herein for the protection of the purchase rights
of the Series 2 Warrants shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be, to any
such other shares of stock and other securities (other than the Common Stock) and property
deliverable upon exercise of the Series 2 Warrants remaining outstanding with such adjustments in
the Exercise Price and the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of this
Warrant and such other adjustments in the provisions hereof as the Board of Directors shall in good
faith determine to be appropriate. In case securities or property other than Common Stock shall be
issuable or deliverable upon exercise as aforesaid, then all references in this Section 2
shall be deemed to apply, so far as appropriate and as nearly as may be, to such other securities
or property.

          (d) If the Company shall pay any dividend or make any other distribution to the holders of its
Common Stock (other than regularly quarterly dividends payable in cash) or shall offer for
subscription pro rata to the holders of its Common Stock any additional shares of stock of any
class or any other right, or there shall be any Transaction, or there shall be a voluntary or
involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company, then, in any one or more of said
cases the Company shall give at least 15 days prior written notice to the holders of the Series 2
Warrants by first-class mail, postage prepaid, at their respective addresses as they shall appear
in the records of the Company of the earlier of the dates on which (i) the books of the Company
shall close or a record shall be taken for such stock dividend, distribution or subscription rights
or (ii) such Transaction, dissolution, liquidation or winding up shall take place. Such notice
shall also specify that date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of record shall
participate in said dividend, distribution of subscription rights or shall be entitled to exchange
their Common Stock for securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance or participate in such dissolution,
liquidation or winding up, as the case may be. Failure to give such notice shall not invalidate
any action so taken.

          Section 3. Reports as to Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of any event specified in
Section 2(a) that would result in any adjustment of the Exercise Price, then, and in each
such case, the Company shall promptly deliver by first-class mail, postage prepaid, at their
respective addresses as they shall appear in the records of the Company, a certificate signed by
the President or a Vice President and by the Treasurer or an Assistant Treasurer or the Secretary
or an Assistant Secretary of the Company setting forth in reasonable detail the event requiring the
adjustment and the method by which such adjustment was calculated and specifying the Exercise Price
then in effect and the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of the Series 2
Warrants following such adjustment. Where appropriate, such notice to

7

 

the holders of the Series 2 Warrants may be given in advance and included as part of the
notice required pursuant to Section 2(d).

modified in whole or in part at any time by an agreement in writing among the Company and the
holder of this Warrant. No failure on the part of either the Company or the holder of this Warrant
to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any
single or partial exercise by either the Company or the holder of this Warrant of any right
preclude any other or future exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right.

          Section 11. Descriptive Headings; Governing Law. The descriptive headings of the
several Sections and paragraphs of this Warrant are inserted for convenience only and do not
constitute a part of this Warrant. References in this Warrant to Sections and Exhibits are
references to Sections of, and Exhibits to, this Warrant unless otherwise noted. The corporation
laws of the State of Delaware shall govern all issues concerning the relative rights of the Company
and its stockholders. All other questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and
interpretation of this Warrant shall be governed by the internal law of the State of Delaware,
without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the
State of Delaware or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any
jurisdictions other than the State of Delaware.

          Section 12. Severability. Should any part of this Warrant for any reason be declared
invalid, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portion, which remaining
portion shall remain in full force and effect as if this Warrant had been executed with the invalid
portion thereof eliminated, and it is hereby declared the intention of the Company hereto that it
would have executed the remaining portion of this Warrant without including therein any such parts
or parts which may, for any reason, be hereafter declared invalid.

Exhibit 10.19

R.H. DONNELLEY CORPORATION

RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS AGREEMENT

     RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS AGREEMENT (this “RSU Agreement”) made as of the date specified on Annex
A attached hereto (the “Grant Date”), between R.H. Donnelley Corporation, a Delaware corporation
(the “Company”), and the undersigned individual (“you” or “Participant”), pursuant to the R.H.
Donnelley Corporation 2005 Stock Award and Incentive Plan (as may be amended from time to time, the
“2005 Plan”), a copy of which you may access electronically on the RHD Intranet under “Human
Resources.” Unless otherwise defined herein, the terms defined in the 2005 Plan shall have the
same defined meanings in this RSU Agreement.

     In consideration of the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth and for other good and valuable
consideration, the validity and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto,
intending to be legally bound hereunder, agree as follows:

     1. Grant of Restricted Stock Units. The Company hereby grants to the Participant an
award of Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) in the number specified on Annex A. Each RSU represents a
forfeitable right to receive one share of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $1.00 per share (a
“Share”), at a specified future date, if the terms and conditions of the 2005 Plan and this RSU
Agreement have been met. RSUs are granted under Section 6(e) of the 2005 Plan, are in all respects
limited and conditioned as hereinafter provided, and are subject to the terms and conditions of the
2005 Plan, which terms and conditions are and automatically shall be incorporated herein by
reference and made a part hereof and shall control in the event of any conflict with any terms of
this RSU Agreement. RSUs are Non-409A Awards as specified in the 2005 Plan, except that RSUs as to
which the Participant would qualify for Retirement in a year before the stated vesting date
specified in Section 3 shall be deemed 409A Awards as specified in the 2005 Plan.

     2. Account for Employee. The Company shall maintain a bookkeeping account for
Participant (the “Account”) reflecting the number of RSUs then credited to Participant hereunder as
a result of the grant of RSUs and any crediting of additional RSUs to Participant pursuant to
payments equivalent to dividends paid on Shares under Section 6 hereof (“Dividend Equivalents”).

     3. Vesting of RSUs. The RSUs will become vested at the stated vesting date(s) as
specified on Annex A. For purposes of this RSU Agreement, “vested” and “vesting” means that the
RSUs will not be forfeited upon a voluntary Termination (as defined below) of employment by the
Participant, and will be subject to settlement in accordance with Section 5. RSUs remain subject
to forfeiture, however, as provided under Section 7(b). Vesting may occur at times earlier than
the applicable stated vesting date(s) under this Section 3, as provided under Sections 4 and 9.

     4. Termination of Employment.

     (a) Termination by Death, Disability or Retirement. If the Participant’s employment
Terminates (as defined below) by reason of death, Disability (as defined below) or Retirement (as
defined below), the RSUs shall immediately become vested.

 

 

     (b) Effect of Other Termination. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, if the
Participant’s employment Terminates for any reason, other than death, Disability or Retirement,
RSUs not yet vested at the date of such Termination shall be forfeited.

     (c) Definitions. The term “Disability” shall have the meaning defined for such term in the
long-term disability plan of the Company, as in effect at the Grant Date, and the term “Retirement”
shall mean Participant’s Termination after attaining (i) age 55 years with 10 years of service
with the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates or (ii) age 65 years without regard to
years of such service. “Termination” (and “Terminates” and similar terms) means Participant’s
“separation from service” from the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates within the meaning
of Proposed Treasury Regulation § 1.409A-1(h) and any successor regulation.

     (d) Effect of Forfeiture. Once RSUs are forfeited (including under Section 7(b)), no
subsequent event will result in vesting or settlement of the forfeited RSUs.

     5. Settlement.

     (a) Time of Settlement of RSUs. RSUs, if not previously settled or forfeited, will be settled
promptly at the earliest of the following times:

	 	(i)	 	The stated vesting date of the RSUs applicable under Section 3. (This applies
both to RSUs that become vested at the stated vesting date and RSUs that became vested
earlier upon the Participant’s Retirement).
	 
	 	(ii)	 	In the event of Participant’s death or the Participant’s Termination due to
Disability, at the time of such event.
	 
	 	(iii)	 	In the event of a Change in Control, at the time of such Change in Control,
except that such settlement will apply to RSUs as to which the Participant has
qualified for Retirement or would qualify for Retirement before the stated vesting
date only if the Change in Control constitutes “a change in ownership or effective
control of the corporation or in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets
of the corporation” under Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(v) of the Internal Revenue Code (the
“Code”). (RSUs that are not settled upon a Change in Control will be settled at the
applicable time under (i) or (ii) above.)

RSUs to be settled under (i) and (ii) above will be settled within 60 days after the date or event
triggering settlement, except that in case of death settlement will occur within the short-term
deferral period permitted under Proposed Treasury Regulation § 1.409A-1(b)(4). RSUs will be
settled under (iii) above at the time of the Change in Control.

     (b) Form of Settlement of RSUs. RSUs will be settleable by delivery of one Share for each
RSU then being settled, together with Dividend Equivalents, if any, payable in cash under Section
6(a)(i). The Company may determine whether or not to credit fractional RSUs in connection with
Dividend Equivalents or adjustments; if fractional RSUs are credited, they will be settled in cash
unless otherwise determined by the Company.

     6. Dividend Equivalents.

 

 

     (a) Crediting and Payment of Dividend Equivalents. Dividend Equivalents will be credited and
paid on the RSUs as follows:

	 	(i)	 	Ordinary Cash Dividends. If the Company declares and pays a dividend
on Shares in the form of an ordinary cash dividend, dividend equivalents will not be
immediately credited or paid to the Participant, but the aggregate amount of such
dividends that would have been paid or payable had the RSUs to be settled instead been
outstanding Shares at each record date occurring since the initial grant or crediting
of such RSUs will be paid as an additional cash payment (without interest) at the time
of such settlement.
	 
	 	(ii)	 	Share Dividends and Splits. If the Company declares and pays a
dividend on Shares in the form of additional Shares, or there occurs a forward split
of Shares, then a number of additional RSUs shall be credited to the Participant as of
the payment date for such dividend or forward share split equal to (A) the number of
RSUs credited to the Participant as of the record date for such dividend or split
multiplied by (B) the number of additional Shares actually paid as a dividend or
issued in such split in respect of each then outstanding Share.
	 
	 	(iii)	 	Other Dividends and Distributions. If the Company declares and pays
a dividend or distribution on Shares that is an extraordinary cash dividend or in the
form of property other than additional Shares, then a number of additional RSUs shall
be credited to the Participant as of the payment date for such dividend or
distribution equal to (A) the number of RSUs credited to the Participant as of the
record date for such dividend or distribution multiplied by (B) the amount of cash
plus the fair market value of any such property paid as a dividend or distribution on
each Share at such payment date, divided by (C) the Fair Market Value of a Share at
such dividend payment date.

     (b) Adjustments. The number of RSUs credited to Participant’s Account shall be appropriately
adjusted, in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of Participant’s rights with respect to RSUs
or to reflect any changes in the number of outstanding Shares resulting from any event referred to
in Section 12(c) of the 2005 Plan, taking into account any RSUs credited to Participant in
connection with such event under Section 6(a) hereof.

     (c) Vesting and Settlement of RSUs Resulting from Dividend Equivalents and Adjustments. RSUs
which directly or indirectly result from Dividend Equivalents on or adjustments to an RSU granted
hereunder shall be subject to the same vesting terms (risk of forfeiture) as apply to the granted
RSU and will be settled at the same time as the granted RSU.

     7. Non-Transferability of RSUs; Additional Forfeiture Conditions.

     (a) Limitations on Transferability. RSUs and the Participant’s rights under this RSU
Agreement shall not be pledged, hypothecated or otherwise encumbered or subject to any lien,
obligation or liability of the Participant to any party (other than the Company or its subsidiary
or affiliate), or assigned or transferred by the Participant, other than by will or the laws of
descent and distribution or to a Beneficiary upon the death of the Participant, designated in
accordance with Section 12(b) of the 2005 Plan. A Beneficiary, transferee or other person claiming
any rights under the 2005 Plan from or through the Participant shall be subject to all terms and

 

 

conditions of the 2005 Plan and this RSU Agreement, except as otherwise determined by the
Committee, and to any additional terms and conditions deemed necessary or appropriate by the
Committee.

     (b) Additional Forfeiture Conditions. RSUs together with any Shares distributed in settlement
of RSUs and any Award Gain (as defined in Section 11(a) of the 2005 Plan) realized in connection
with the RSUs are subject to forfeiture under certain circumstances, in accordance with Section 11
of the 2005 Plan.

     8. Employee Representations and Warranties Upon Settlement. As a condition to the
settlement of the RSUs, the Company may require Participant to make any representation or warranty
to the Company as may be required under any applicable law or regulation, as reasonably determined
by the Company.

     9. Change in Control. Upon a Change in Control (as defined in the 2005 Plan but
subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 9), the RSUs shall become fully vested and
shall be settled in accordance with Section 10 of the 2005 Plan; provided, however, that, for
purposes of this RSU Agreement, the transactions contemplated under the Agreement and Plan of
Merger entered into as of October 3, 2005, by and among the Company, Dex Media, Inc., and Forward
Acquisition Corp., including the merger and any holdings of Shares and changes in the composition
of the Board of Directors of the Company resulting from the merger, shall not constitute a Change
in Control (under all parts of the definition of “Change in Control”) as defined in Section 10(c)
of the 2005 Plan.

     10. No Guarantee of Continued Employment or Other Service. THE PARTICIPANT
ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE VESTING OF RSUs PURSUANT TO SECTION 4 IS EARNED ONLY BY CONTINUING
AS AN EMPLOYEE AT THE WILL OF THE COMPANY (NOT THROUGH THE ACT OF BEING HIRED, BEING GRANTED THE
RSUs OR ACQUIRING SHARES IN SETTLEMENT OF THE RSUs HEREUNDER). THE PARTICIPANT FURTHER
ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THIS RSU AGREEMENT AND THE VESTING SCHEDULE SET FORTH HEREIN DO NOT
CONSTITUTE AN EXPRESS OR IMPLIED PROMISE OF CONTINUED EMPLOYMENT FOR THE VESTING PERIOD, FOR ANY
PERIOD OR AT ALL, AND SHALL NOT INTERFERE IN ANY WAY WITH THE PARTICIPANT’S RIGHT TO TERMINATE OR
THE COMPANY’S RIGHT TO TERMINATE THE PARTICIPANT AT ANY TIME, WITH OR WITHOUT CAUSE.

     11. Withholding. The Company and any subsidiary or affiliate is authorized to
withhold from any payment to the Participant relating to the RSUs, including from a distribution of
Shares, or any payroll or other payment to the Participant, amounts of withholding and other taxes
due or potentially payable in connection with any transaction involving this RSU, and to take such
other action as the Committee may deem advisable to enable the Company and the Participant to
satisfy obligations for the payment of withholding taxes and other tax obligations relating to the
RSUs. Accordingly, at the time of settlement of RSUs, the Company will withhold from any Shares
deliverable in settlement of the RSUs, in accordance with Section 12(d)(i) of the Plan, the number
of Shares having a value nearest to, but not exceeding, the amount of income and employment taxes
required to be withheld under applicable laws and regulations, and pay the amount of such
withholding taxes in cash to the appropriate taxing authorities; provided, however, that the
Committee may determine at any time that no Shares will be withheld

 

 

hereunder, and provided further that Shares will not be withheld hereunder if and to the
extent that the Participant has made arrangements with the Company at least 90 days before the date
of settlement of the RSUs to pay withholding taxes in some other way, and such arrangements are
satisfactory to the Company. Participant will be responsible for any withholding taxes not
satisfied by means of such mandatory withholding and for all taxes in excess of such withholding
taxes that may be due upon vesting or settlement of RSUs.

     12. Miscellaneous Provisions.

     (a) Governing Law. The validity, construction and effect of this RSU Agreement shall be
determined in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to
principles of conflicts of law, and applicable provisions of federal law.

     (b) Entire Agreement. The 2005 Plan and this RSU Agreement constitute the entire agreement of
the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede in their entirety all prior
undertakings and agreements of the Company and the Participant with respect to the subject matter
hereof. Any modification of this RSU Agreement must be in writing signed by the Company (oral
statements by any person cannot modify this RSU Agreement). Decisions of the Committee with
respect to the administration and interpretation of the 2005 Plan and this RSU Agreement shall be
final, conclusive and binding on all persons interested therein.

     (c) No Rights as Stockholder Prior to Settlement. Prior to the delivery of the Shares in
settlement of the RSUs, Participant shall not have any rights of a stockholder with respect to the
RSUs or the Shares potentially deliverable in settlement of this RSU.

     (d) Unfunded Award. The grant of the RSUs and any provision for distribution of Shares in
settlement of Participant’s Account hereunder shall be by means of bookkeeping entries on the books
of the Company and shall not create in Participant any right to, or claim against any, specific
assets of the Company, nor result in the creation of any trust or escrow account for Participant.
With respect to Participant’s entitlement to any distribution hereunder, Participant shall be a
general creditor of the Company.

     (e) Compliance with Code Section 409A. To the extent that that RSUs (or a portion thereof)
constitute 409A Awards, settlement of such RSUs may not be accelerated in the discretion of the
Company (except to the extent permitted under Proposed Treasury Regulation § 1.409A-3(h)(1) and
(2)). Other provisions of this RSU Agreement notwithstanding, under U.S. federal income tax laws
and Treasury Regulations (including proposed regulations) as presently in effect or hereafter
implemented, (i) if the timing of any distribution in settlement of RSUs would result in
Participant’s constructive receipt of income relating to the RSUs prior to such distribution, the
date of distribution will be the earliest date after the specified date of distribution that
distribution can be effected without resulting in such constructive receipt; (ii) in furtherance of
(i), any distribution of RSUs deemed to be 409A Awards the timing of which is tied to a termination
of employment will occur not earlier until six months after separation from service if the
Participant is a “Specified Employee” within the meaning of Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i), if the
Participant otherwise would be subject to constructive receipt of income relating to the RSUs prior
to such distribution; and (iii) any rights of Participant or retained authority of the Company with
respect to RSUs hereunder shall be automatically modified and limited to the extent necessary so
that Participant will not be deemed to be in constructive receipt

 

 

of income relating to the RSUs prior to the distribution and so that Participant shall not be
subject to any penalty under Section 409A.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this RSU Agreement to be duly executed by its duly
authorized officers and the Participant has executed this RSU Agreement, each on Annex A, as of the
Grant Date.
