The remainder of the Restricted Shares shall vest upon the satisfaction of the conditions contained in Schedule A attached hereto (the “Performance-Based Restricted Shares”).

The Grantee shall provide any signatures and instruments of transfer with respect to the certificates held in escrow by the Secretary to permit cancellation of such legended certificates prior to the issuance by the Company of any certificates representing Vested Restricted Shares.  If, notwithstanding the escrow requirement described in Section 4 below, certificates representing such Restricted Shares shall have theretofore been delivered to the Grantee, the stock certificate representing such Restricted Shares shall be returned to the Company, complete with any necessary signatures or instruments of transfer, prior to the issuance by the Company of such unlegended certificate representing unrestricted shares of Common Stock.

(c)           Termination of Service.  If the Grantee incurs a Termination of Service, the Grantee may continue to hold any Restricted Shares that have Vested prior to such Termination of Service subject to the terms of this Agreement and on the following terms and conditions:

(i)           Involuntary Termination of Service for Cause or Voluntary Termination of Service without Good Reason. If the Grantee incurs an involuntary Termination of Service as the result of a dismissal by the Company for Cause or as the result of the Grantee’s voluntary Termination of Service without Good Reason (as defined below), all Restricted Shares, that have not Vested prior to such Termination of Service shall be immediately forfeited to the Company without payment of any consideration or amount to the Grantee or any other Person in connection with such forfeiture. For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean (i) to the extent that there is an employment, severance or other agreement governing the relationship between the Grantee and the Company, which agreement contains a definition of “good reason,” Good Reason shall have the meaning as defined therein; and otherwise, (ii) the Grantee’s Termination of Service on account of any material breach by the Company of any provision of any employment agreement or similar agreement between the Grantee and the Company; provided, that no Good Reason will have occurred unless and until the Grantee has: (A) provided written notice to the Company specifying in reasonable detail the applicable condition (and underlying facts and circumstances) giving rise to the Good Reason no later than 30 days following the occurrence of that condition; (B) provided the Company with a period of 30 days to remedy or cure the condition and so specifying in the notice; and (C) terminated his or her employment for Good Reason within 30 days following the expiration of the period to remedy if the Company fails to remedy the condition.

(ii)          Involuntary Termination of Service without Cause or Voluntary Termination of Service for Good Reason.  If the Grantee incurs an involuntary Termination of Service as the result of a dismissal without Cause or as the result of the Grantee’s voluntary Termination of Service for Good Reason, then any Restricted Shares that have not Vested prior to such Termination of Service shall be forfeited to the Company without payment of any consideration or amount to the Grantee or any other Person in connection with such forfeiture and the Grantee may continue to hold any Restricted Shares that have Vested prior to termination subject to the terms of this Agreement.

(iii)         Death or Disability.  If the Grantee incurs a Termination of Service as the result of the Grantee's death or disability (to the extent that there is an employment, severance or other agreement governing the relationship between the Participant and the Company, as defined in such Agreement, or otherwise as determined by the Committee), then any Restricted Shares that have not Vested prior to such Termination of Service shall be forfeited to the Company without payment of any consideration or amount to the Grantee or any other Person in connection with such forfeiture and the Grantee may continue to hold any Restricted Shares that have Vested prior to termination subject to the terms of this Agreement. For purposes of the foregoing provisions, the number of Restricted Shares that have Vested prior to such Termination of Service shall be calculated by adding [     ] years of service to the actual number of years of service completed prior to such Termination of Service.4

3.           Transfer of the Unvested Shares upon Forfeiture.  The Grantee hereby authorizes and directs the Secretary of the Company, or such other person designated by the Committee, to take such steps as may be necessary to cause the transfer to the Company of the Unvested Shares that have been forfeited by the Grantee.

4.           Issuance of Shares.   Subject to Section 3 hereof, Restricted Shares shall be evidenced by stock certificates, which certificates shall be registered in the name of the Grantee and shall bear the restrictive legends described in Section 6 hereof.  The stock certificates representing the Restricted Shares shall be endorsed in blank and deposited by Grantee with the Secretary of the Company and shall be held in escrow by the Secretary as escrow holder until the Restricted Shares have Vested.  The Grantee shall also deposit with the Secretary as escrow holder any stock, securities or other property which the Grantee is entitled to receive with respect to the Restricted Shares granted to Grantee by reason of any of the events described in Section 3 (other than cash dividends received), and such stock, securities and other property will be subject to the same restrictions imposed on the Restricted Shares until such Restricted Shares have Vested.

 

3 The number of additional years of service credited to the Grantee upon a Termination of Service, which may be zero, will be determined by the Committee on a grant by grant basis.

4 The number of additional years of service credited to the Grantee upon a Termination of Service, which may be zero, will be determined by the Committee on a grant by grant basis.

 

  

  

  

 

5.           Rights as a Stockholder.  Subject to the restrictions set forth in the Plan and this Agreement, the Grantee shall possess all incidents of ownership with respect to the Restricted Shares, including the right to receive dividends with respect to such Restricted Shares and to vote such Restricted Shares.  With respect to Restricted Shares that are still subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 8 hereof, property that the Grantee is entitled to receive with respect to such Restricted Shares by reason of an event described in Section 6 herein (other than cash dividends received) shall be subject to the restrictions imposed on such Restricted Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein or in the Plan shall be deemed to confer on the Grantee any right to continued employment with the Company or limit in any way the right of the Company to terminate such employment at any time.

6.           Adjustment Transactions.  In the event of that any special or extraordinary dividend or other extraordinary distribution is declared (whether in the form of cash, Company Stock, or other property), or there occurs any recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, spin-off, combination, repurchase, share exchange or other similar corporate transaction or event, an appropriate and proportionate equitable adjustment shall be made in accordance with Section 1.5 of the Plan in the number and kind of Restricted Shares subject to this Agreement.  The Company will make cash payments in lieu of any fractional shares.

7.           Withholding Taxes.  The Company's obligation to issue Restricted Shares and to recognize the Vesting of any such Shares is subject to the Grantee’s satisfaction of all applicable federal, state and local income and employment tax withholding requirements in connection with such issuance or Vesting (the “Withholding Amount”).  If the Grantee fails to timely remit to the Company an amount in cash equal to the Withholding Amount, the Company shall have the right and is hereby authorized to withhold from the Grantee’s Vested Shares or from any compensation or other amount otherwise payable by the Company to the Grantee in an amount up to but not to exceed the Withholding Amount.

ANY ATTEMPT TO DISPOSE OF THESE SHARES IN CONTRAVENTION OF THE RESTRICTIONS, INCLUDING BY WAY OF SALE, ASSIGNMENT, TRANSFER, ALIENATION, PLEDGE, HYPOTHECATION OR OTHERWISE, SHALL BE NULL AND VOID AND WITHOUT EFFECT.

 

  

  

  

 

(b)           Transfer Restrictions. The Restricted Shares that have Vested may not be sold or otherwise disposed of in any manner that would constitute a violation of any applicable federal or state securities laws. The Grantee agrees (i) that the Company may refuse to cause the transfer of Restricted Shares that have Vested to be registered on the applicable stock transfer records if such proposed transfer would in the opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company constitute a violation of any applicable securities law and (ii) that the Company may give related instructions to the transfer agent, if any, to stop registration of the transfer of the Vested Restricted Shares.
