			(iv) for Cause prior to the Final Vesting Date, then all RSUs, whether Vested or unvested prior to the Final Vesting Date, shall be immediately forfeited without further consideration to the Participant.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(c)       Accelerated Vesting in Connection with a Change of Control.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(i)   If a Change of Control occurs prior to the Final Vesting Date, and the Participant has been in Continuous Employment between the Date of Grant and the date of such Change of Control, then all unvested RSUs evidenced by this Agreement shall become 100% Vested, except (A) to the extent such RSUs have previously been forfeited, or (B) to the extent that a Replacement Award is provided to the Participant to replace, continue or adjust the outstanding RSUs (the “Replaced Award”).  If the Participant’s employment with the Company or a Subsidiary (or any of its or their successors after the Change of Control) (as applicable, the “Successor Company”) is terminated by the Participant for Good Reason or by the Successor Company other than for Cause, in each case within a period of two years after the Change of Control but prior to the Final Vesting Date, to the extent that the Replacement Award has not previously been Vested or forfeited, the Replacement Award will become 100% Vested (and become entitled to settlement as specified in Section 4(b)(ii)).
		

		
			 
		

		
			(ii)  For purposes of this Agreement, a “Replacement Award” means an award (A) of the same type (i.e., time-based restricted stock units) as the Replaced Award, (B) that has a value at least equal to the value of the Replaced Award, (C) that relates to publicly traded equity securities of the Successor Company in the Change of Control (or another entity that is affiliated with the Successor Company following the Change of Control), (D) the tax consequences of which for such Participant under the Code, if the Participant is subject to U.S. federal income tax under the Code, are not less favorable to the Participant than the tax consequences of the Replaced Award, and (E) the other terms and conditions of which are not less favorable to the Participant than the terms and conditions of the Replaced Award (including the provisions that would apply in the event of a subsequent change of control).  A Replacement Award

			may be granted only to the extent it does not result in the Replaced Award or Replacement Award failing to comply with or ceasing to be exempt from Section 409A of the Code.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Replacement Award may take the form of a continuation of the Replaced Award if the requirements of the preceding two sentences are satisfied.  The determination of whether the conditions of this Section 3(c)(ii) are satisfied will be made in good faith by the Committee, as constituted immediately before the Change of Control, in its sole discretion.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(iii) For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” means: (A) the willful and continued failure by the Participant to substantially perform the Participant’s duties with the Successor Company (other than any such failure resulting from termination by the Participant for Good Reason) after a demand for substantial performance is delivered to the Participant that specifically identifies the manner in which the Successor Company believes that the Participant has not substantially performed the Participant’s duties, and the Participant has failed to resume substantial performance of the Participant’s duties on a continuous basis within five days of receiving such demand; (B) the willful engaging by the Participant in conduct which is demonstrably and materially injurious to the Successor Company, monetarily or otherwise; or (C) the Participant’s conviction of a felony or conviction of a misdemeanor which impairs the Participant’s ability substantially to perform the Participant’s duties with the Successor Company.  For the purposes of this definition, no act, or failure to act, on the Participant’s part shall be deemed “willful” unless done, or omitted to be done, by the Participant not in good faith and without reasonable belief that the Participant’s action or omission was in the best interest of the Successor Company.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(iv) For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” means: (A) any material failure of the Successor Company to comply with and satisfy any of the terms of any employment or change in control (or similar) agreement between the Successor Company and the Participant pursuant to which the Participant provides services to the Successor Company; (B) any significant involuntary reduction of the authority, duties or responsibilities held by the Participant immediately prior to the Change of Control (and, for the avoidance of doubt, involuntary removal of the Participant from an officer position that the Participant holds immediately prior to the Change of Control will not, by itself, constitute a significant involuntary reduction of the authority, duties or responsibilities held by the Participant immediately prior to the Change of Control); (C) any material involuntary reduction in the aggregate remuneration of the Participant as in effect immediately prior to the Change of Control; or (D) requiring the Participant to become based at any office or location more than the minimum number of miles required by the Code for the Participant to claim a moving expense deduction, from the office or location at which the Participant was based immediately prior to such Change of Control, except for travel reasonably required in the performance of the Participant’s

			responsibilities; provided,  however, that no termination shall be deemed to be for Good Reason unless (x) the Participant provides the Successor Company with written notice setting forth the specific facts or circumstances constituting Good Reason within ninety days after the initial existence of the occurrence of such facts or circumstances, (y) the Successor Company fails to cure such facts or circumstances within thirty days of its receipt of such written notice, and (z) the Participant actually terminates employment within thirty (30) days following the end of the Successor Company’s thirty-day cure period, if such event or circumstance has not been cured.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(v) If a Replacement Award is provided, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any outstanding RSUs which at the time of the Change of Control are not subject to a "substantial risk of forfeiture" (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code) will be deemed to be Vested at the time of such Change of Control (and such Vested RSUs shall be settled in accordance with Section 4(b)(iii) below).
		

		
			 
		

		
			(d)       Forfeiture of RSUs.  Subject to Section 3(b)(iv), any RSUs that have not Vested pursuant to Section 3(a),  Section 3(b), or Section 3(c) as of the Final Vesting Date will be forfeited automatically and without further notice on such date (or earlier if, and on such date that, the Participant ceases to be in Continuous Employment prior to the Final Vesting Date for any reason other than as described in Section 3(b) or Section 3(c)).
		

		
			 
		

		
			4.        Settlement of RSUs.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(a)       Normal.  Subject to Section 4(b), the Company will issue to the Participant one share of Stock on the respective Vesting Date for each RSU that is a Vested RSU on such Vesting Date to the extent the RSU has not previously been Vested, forfeited or settled.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(b)       Other Settlement Events.  Notwithstanding Section 4(a), to the extent the RSUs are Vested RSUs on the dates set forth below and to the extent the Vested RSUs have not previously been Vested, forfeited or settled, the Company will settle such Vested RSUs as follows:
		

		
			 
		

		
			(i)  Death.  If there are such Vested RSUs on the Participant's death, within thirty days of the Participant's death, one share of Stock will be issued for each such Vested RSU.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(ii) Separation from Service.  If there are such Vested RSUs upon the Participant's Separation from Service, within thirty days of the Participant's Separation from Service, one share of Stock will be issued for each such Vested RSU.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(iii)Change of Control.  If there are such Vested RSUs upon a Change of Control, one share of Stock will be issued for each such Vested RSU; provided,  however, that if such Change of Control would not qualify as a permissible date of distribution under Section 409A(a)(2)(A) of the Code, and the regulations thereunder, and where Section 409A of the Code applies to such distribution, the Participant is entitled to receive the corresponding payment on the date that would have otherwise applied pursuant to Section 4 as though such Change of Control had not occurred.
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			5

		

 

		

		
			(c)       Payment of Taxes Upon Settlement.   As a condition of the issuance of shares of Stock upon settlement of RSUs hereunder, the Participant agrees to remit to the Company at the time of settlement any taxes required to be withheld by the Company under Federal, State or local law as a result of the settlement of the RSUs. As a condition of the issuance of shares of Stock upon settlement of RSUs hereunder, the Participant agrees that the Company will deduct from the total shares to be issued as a result of the Vesting of the RSUs a sufficient number of shares to satisfy the minimum statutory withholding amount permissible.  In addition, the Participant may deliver previously acquired shares of Stock held by the Participant for at least six months in order to satisfy additional tax withholding above the minimum statutory tax withholding amount permissible; provided,  however, the Participant shall not be entitled to deliver such additional shares if it would cause adverse accounting consequences for the Company or a Subsidiary.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(d)       Specified Employee.  Notwithstanding anything (including any provision of the Agreement or the Plan) to the contrary, if a Participant is a Specified Employee and if the RSUs are subject to Section 409A of the Code, payment to the Participant on account of a Separation from Service shall, to the extent required to comply with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(2), be made to the Participant on the earlier of (i) the Participant’s death or (ii) the first business day (or within 30 days after such first business day) that is more than six months after the date of Separation from Service.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Participant shall not be considered to have terminated employment with the Company or any Subsidiary for purposes of any payments under this Agreement which are subject to Section 409A of the Code until the Participant has incurred a Separation from Service.  In the Company’s sole and absolute discretion, interest may be paid due to such delay.  Further, any interest will be calculated in the manner determined by the Company in its sole and absolute discretion in a manner that qualifies any interest as reasonable earnings under Section 409A of the Code.  Dividend equivalents will not be paid with respect to any dividends that would have been paid during the delay if the Stock had been issued.  To the extent required for purposes of Section 409A of the Code, each installment that vests under this Agreement shall be construed as a separate identified payment for purposes of Section 409A of the Code.
		

		
			 
		

		
			5.        Non-Transferability of RSUs. The RSUs may not be assigned, transferred, pledged or hypothecated in any manner (otherwise than by will or the laws of descent or distribution) nor may the Participant enter into any transaction for the purpose of, or which has the effect of, reducing the market risk of holding the RSUs by using puts, calls or similar financial techniques. The RSUs subject to this Agreement may be settled during the lifetime of the Participant only with the Participant or the Participant’s guardian or legal representative. Upon any attempt to transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate, or otherwise dispose of the RSUs or any related rights to the RSUs that is contrary to the provisions of this Agreement or the Plan, or upon the levy of any attachment or similar process upon the RSUs or such rights, the RSUs and such rights shall immediately become null and void. The terms of this Agreement, shall be binding upon the Successors of the Participant.
		

		
			 
		

		
			6.         Stock Subject to the RSUs; Compliance with Law.  The Company will not be required to issue or deliver any shares of Stock or any certificate or certificates for shares of Stock  with respect to the Participant’s RSUs until such shares have been listed (or authorized for listing

			upon official notice of issuance) upon each stock exchange on which outstanding shares of the same class are then listed and until the Company has taken such steps as may, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, be required by law and applicable regulations, including the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and state securities laws and regulations, in connection with the issuance of such shares, and the listing of such shares on each such exchange. 
		

		
			 
		

		
			7.        Rights as Stockholder.  The Participant or his/her Successors shall have no rights as stockholder with respect to any RSUs or underlying shares covered by this Agreement until the Participant or his/her Successors shall have become the beneficial owner of such shares, and, except as provided in  Section 9 of this Agreement, no adjustment shall be made for dividends or distributions or other rights in respect of such shares for which the record date is prior to the date on which the Participant or his/her Successors shall have become the beneficial owner thereof.
		

		
			 
		

		
			8.        No Dividend Equivalents.  No dividend equivalents will be paid or accumulated on the RSUs.

No adjustment shall be made if such adjustment is prohibited by Section 5.5 of the Plan (relating to Section 409A of the Code).
