This Award is made pursuant to Section 5.2 of the Amendment dated June 17, 2011 (the “Amendment”) to the Employment Agreement (“Employment Agreement”) entered into between you and the Company effective January 1, 2008.  Pursuant to Sections 12(b) and 12(f) of the Plan, for purposes of this Award, the term “Cause” shall be as defined in the Employment Agreement.  Defined terms that are not otherwise defined in the Plan or this Award, are as defined in the Employment Agreement or the Amendment, as the case may be. This Award is intended to comply with the terms of the Amendment and the terms of the Plan, and in the event of any inconsistency between the terms of the Amendment and the terms of the Plan, the terms of the Plan shall control.

 

During the period commencing on the Award date and terminating on the fifth anniversary of the Effective Date, except as otherwise provided herein, the Units may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, or otherwise encumbered and are subject to forfeiture as provided herein.

 

Vesting

 

The RSUs shall vest in three equal annual installments with the first such installment vesting on December 31, 2013, and each of the two subsequent installments vesting each December 31 thereafter, with a final vesting date of December 31, 2015 (each a “Time Vesting Date”) subject to your continuous employment with the Company through each Time Vesting Date.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a Change in Control (as defined, for the purposes of this Award, in Section 5.4.4 of the Employment Agreement) any then remaining unvested RSUs shall vest as provided in the Plan.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a termination of your employment with the Company prior to any Time Vesting Date (other than as set forth in the preceding paragraph), your then unvested RSUs as of a Date of Termination shall vest or be forfeited as follows:

 

	
  

	
1.

	
If Termination upon Death, 100% of the then remaining unvested RSUs shall immediately become vested.

2.

	
If Termination upon Disability, subject to Section 5.4.8 of the Employment Agreement, 50% of the then remaining unvested RSUs shall immediately become vested and the balance shall be forfeited.

 

	
  

	
3.

	
If Termination is without Cause or for Good Reason, subject to Section 5.4.8 of the Employment Agreement, 75% of the then remaining unvested RSUs shall vest and the balance shall be forfeited.

 

	
  

	
4.

	
If Termination is for Cause or without Good Reason, 100% of the then remaining unvested RSUs shall be forfeited.

 

Payment

 

Except as set forth below, any vested portion of the RSUs shall be distributed to you, or your successors and assigns, as the case may be, in shares of Common Stock within 15 days after the applicable Time Vesting Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) all vested RSUs shall be distributed to you in shares of Common Stock simultaneous with the Company incurring a Change in Control (including those vested by reason of the Change in Control); (ii) any RSUs that vest by reason of your Death, shall be distributed in shares of Common Stock to your estate 60 days after the Date of Termination; and (iii) to the extent that RSUs become vested by reason of termination of your employment upon Disability or without Cause or for Good Reason, such RSUs shall be payable in shares of Common Stock as provided in, and subject to, Sections 5.4.8 and 9.8.2 of the Employment Agreement.

 

	
Dividends

	
With respect to the RSUs, you will have the right to receive dividend equivalents (in cash or in kind, as the case may be) in respect of any dividend distributed to holders of Common Stock of record on and after the Date of Award; provided, that any such dividend equivalents shall be subject to the same restrictions as the RSUs with regard to which they are issued, including without limitation, as to vesting (including accelerated vesting) and time of distribution. All such withheld dividends shall not earn interest, except as otherwise determined by the Administrator. You will not receive withheld dividends on any RSUs which are forfeited and all such dividends shall be forfeited along with the RSUs which are forfeited.

	 	 
	
Tax Withholding

	
The Company shall have the right to withhold from your compensation an amount sufficient to fulfill its or its Affiliate’s obligations for any applicable withholding and employment taxes. Alternatively, the Company may require you to pay to the Company the amount of any taxes which the Company is required to withhold with respect to the Shares, or, in lieu thereof, to retain or sell without notice a sufficient number of Shares to cover the amount required to be withheld. The Company may withhold from any cash dividends paid with respect to RSUs an amount sufficient to cover taxes owed, if any, as a result of the dividend payment. The Company’s method of satisfying its withholding obligations shall be solely in the discretion of the Administrator, subject to applicable federal, state, local and foreign laws. The Company shall have a lien and security interest in the Shares and any accumulated dividends to secure your obligations hereunder.

“The shares represented by this certificate have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or under applicable state securities laws.
