Restricted   Shares/ Nontransferability
    	
 
    	
This   grant is an award of Shares in the number of Shares set forth on the cover   sheet subject to the vesting conditions described below (“Restricted   Shares”). To the extent not yet vested, your Restricted Shares may not be   transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated, whether by operation of law   or otherwise, nor may the Restricted Shares be made subject to execution,   attachment or similar process.
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
Issuance   and Vesting
    	
 
    	
The   Company will, in its sole discretion, either (i) issue your Restricted   Shares in your name as of the Grant Date, or (ii) maintain a record of   this grant and issue any Shares as and when such Shares vest. 

 

Your   right to the Shares under this Restricted Share Agreement vests as to   one-third (1/3) of the total number of Shares covered by this grant, as shown   on the cover sheet, on each of the first three anniversaries of the Vesting   Start Date (each an “Anniversary Date”) provided you then continue in   Service. 

 

Your   right to the Shares under this Restricted Share Agreement will become fully   vested on your termination of Service due to death or disability. No   additional Shares will vest after your Service has terminated for any reason,   other than pursuant to the terms of any Employment Agreement between you and   the Company.
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
Forfeiture   of Unvested Shares
    	
 
    	
Except   as provided pursuant to the terms of any Employment Agreement between you and   the Company, in the event that your Service terminates for any reason other   than death or disability, you will forfeit to the Company all of the Shares   subject to this grant that have not yet vested.
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
Withholding   Taxes
    	
 
    	
You   agree, as a condition of this grant, that you will make acceptable   arrangements to pay any withholding or other taxes that may be due as a   result of the vesting of Shares acquired under this grant. In the event that   the Company determines that any federal, state, local or foreign tax or   withholding payment is required relating to the vesting of Shares arising   from this grant, the Company shall have the right to: (i) require such   payments from you, (ii) withhold such amounts from other payments due to   you from the Company or any Affiliate, or (iii) cause an immediate   forfeiture of Shares subject to the vesting pursuant to this Agreement in an   amount equal to the withholding or other taxes due.
