The Company shall pay to the Holder eleven (11) monthly payments of interest only on the Principal Amount outstanding hereunder, in cash, in arrears, at the rate of six percent (6%) per annum from the Amended Original Issuance Date, commencing on October 8, 2017, and continuing thereafter on the 8th  day of each successive month throughout the term of this Promissory Note.  On the Maturity Date, the Company shall pay the Holder one balloon payment of the entire outstanding Principal Amount of this Promissory Note plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

2. Payment.  Payment of any sums due to the Holder under the terms of this Promissory Note shall be made in United States Dollars by check or wire transfer at the option of the Company.  Payment shall be made at the address last appearing on the records of the Company as designated in writing by the Holder hereof from time to time.  If any payment hereunder would otherwise become due and payable on a day on which banks are closed or permitted to be closed in Houston, Texas, such payment shall become due and payable on the next succeeding day on which banks are open and not permitted to be closed in Houston, Texas (“Business Day”).  The forwarding of such funds shall constitute a payment of outstanding principal and/or interest hereunder and shall satisfy and discharge the liability for principal and interest on this Promissory Note to the extent of the sum represented by such payment.

3. Representations and Warranties of the Company.  The Company represents and warrants to the Holder that:

(a) Organization.  The Company is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and has the requisite power to own, lease and operate its properties and to carry on its business as now being conducted.

(b) Power and Authority.   The Company has the requisite power to execute, deliver and perform this Promissory Note, and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.  The execution and delivery of this Promissory Note by the Company and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company.  This Promissory Note has been duly executed and delivered by the Company and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company and is enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms except (i) that such enforcement may be subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights and (ii) that the remedy of specific performance and injunctive and other forms of equitable relief are subject to certain 

Amended and Restated Secured Promissory Note – Page 2

equitable defenses and to the discretion of the court before which any proceedings therefor may be brought.

4. Events of Defaults and Remedies.  Each of the following is deemed to be an event of default (“Event of Default”) hereunder: (i) the failure by the Company to pay any installment of interest on the Promissory Note as and when due and payable and the continuance of any such failure for 15 days, (ii) the failure by the Company to pay all or any part of the principal on the Promissory Note when and as the same becomes due and payable, as set forth above, and the continuance of any such failure for 15 days, (iii) the failure by the Company to observe or perform any other covenant or agreement contained in the Promissory Note and the continuance of such failure for a period of 30 days after written notice is given to the Company by the Holder, (iv) the assignment by the Company for the benefit of creditors, or an application by the Company to any tribunal for the appointment of a trustee or receiver of a substantial part of the assets of the Company, or the commencement of any proceedings relating to the Company under any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, readjustment of debts, dissolution or other liquidation law of any jurisdiction; or the filing of such application, or the commencement of any such proceedings against the Company and an indication of consent by the Company to such proceedings, or the appointment of such trustee or receiver, or an adjudication of the Company bankrupt or insolvent, or approval of the petition in any such proceedings, and such order remains in effect for 60 days; or (v) a default in the payment of principal or interest when due which extends beyond any stated period of grace applicable thereto or an acceleration for any other reason of maturity of any indebtedness for borrowed money of the Company with an aggregate principal amount in excess of $2,000,000 and (vi) final unsatisfied judgments not covered by insurance aggregating in excess of $2,000,000, at any one time rendered against the Company and not stayed, bonded or discharged within 75 days.

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing (other than an Event of Default specified in clause (v) above with respect to the Company), then in every such case, unless the Principal Amount of the Promissory Note shall have already become due and payable, the Holder of the Promissory Note then outstanding, by notice in writing to the Company (an “Acceleration Notice”), may declare all principal and accrued and unpaid interest thereon to be due and payable immediately.  If an Event of Default specified in clause (v) above occurs with respect to the Company, all principal and accrued and unpaid interest thereon will be immediately due and payable on the Promissory Note without any declaration or other act on the part of the Holder.  The Holder may rescind such acceleration if the existing Event of Default has been cured or waived.

5. Default Interest.  The Company agrees that if the Company defaults in the payment of any payment required hereunder, whether payment of Principal Amount or interest, the Company promises to pay, on demand, interest on any such unpaid amounts, from the date the payment is due to the date of actual payment, at the rate (the “Default Rate”) of the lesser of (i) 12% per annum; and (ii) the maximum nonusurious rate permitted by applicable law.

6. Limitation on Merger, Sale or Consolidation.  The Company may not, directly or indirectly, consolidate with or merge into another person or sell, lease, convey or transfer all or substantially all of its assets (computed on a consolidated basis), whether in a single transaction or a series of related transactions, to another person or group of affiliated persons, unless either (a) in the 

Amended and Restated Secured Promissory Note – Page 3

case of a merger or consolidation, the Company is the surviving entity or (b) the resulting, surviving or transferee entity is a corporation or limited liability company organized under the laws of any state of the United States and expressly assumes by supplemental agreement all of the obligations of the Company in connection with the Promissory Note.

Upon any consolidation or merger or any transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company in accordance with the foregoing, the successor corporation or limited liability company formed by such consolidation or into which the Company is merged or to which such transfer is made, shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of the Company under the Promissory Note with the same effect as if such successor corporation or limited liability company had been named therein as the Company, and the Company will be released from its obligations under the Promissory Note, except as to any obligations that arise from or as a result of such transaction.

7. No Personal Liability of Shareholders, Officers, Directors.  No recourse shall be had for the payment of the Principal Amount or the interest on this Promissory Note, or for any claim based thereon, or otherwise in respect thereof, or based on or in respect of any Promissory Note supplemental thereto, against any incorporator, stockholder, officer, or director (past, present, or future) of the Company, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute, or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such liability being by the acceptance hereof, and as part of the consideration for the issue hereof, expressly waived and released.

8. Listing of Registered Holder of Promissory Note.  This Promissory Note will be registered as to principal in the Holder’s name on the books of the Company at its principal office in Houston, Texas, after which no transfer hereof shall be valid unless made on the Company’s books at the office of the Company, by the Holder hereof, in person, or by attorney duly authorized in writing, and similarly noted hereon.

9. Holder of Promissory Note Not Deemed a Stockholder.  No Holder, in his capacity as Holder of this Promissory Note shall be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of shares of the Company for any purpose, nor shall anything contained in this Promissory Note be construed to confer upon the Holder hereof, in his capacity as Holder, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote, give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether any reorganization, issue of stock, reclassification of stock, consolidation, merger, conveyance or otherwise), receive notice of meetings, receive dividends or subscription rights, or otherwise.

10. Waiver of Demand, Presentment, Etc.  The Company hereby expressly waives demand and presentment for payment, notice of nonpayment, protest, notice of protest, notice of dishonor, notice of acceleration or intent to accelerate, bringing of suit and diligence in taking any action to collect amounts called for hereunder and shall be directly and primarily liable for the payment of all sums owing and to be owing hereunder, regardless of and without any notice, diligence, act or omission as or with respect to the collection of any amount called for hereunder.

11. Attorney’s Fees.  The Company agrees to pay all costs and expenses, including 

Amended and Restated Secured Promissory Note – Page 4

without limitation reasonable attorney’s fees, which may be incurred by the Holder in collecting any amount due under this Promissory Note as described herein.

12. Enforceability.  In case any provision of this Promissory Note is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be excessive in scope or otherwise invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be adjusted rather than voided, if possible, so that it is enforceable to the maximum extent possible, and the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Promissory Note will not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

13. Intent to Comply with Usury Laws.  In no event will the interest to be paid on this Promissory Note exceed the maximum rate provided by law.  It is the intent of the parties to comply fully with the usury laws of the State of Texas; accordingly, it is agreed that notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary in this Promissory Note, in no event shall such Promissory Note require the payment or permit the collection of interest (which term, for purposes hereof, shall include any amount which, under Texas law, is deemed to be interest, whether or not such amount is characterized by the parties as interest) in excess of the maximum amount permitted by the laws of the State of Texas.  If any excess of interest is unintentionally contracted for, charged or received under this Promissory Note, or in the event the maturity of the indebtedness evidenced by the Promissory Note is accelerated in whole or in part, or in the event that all of part of the Principal Amount or interest of this Promissory Note shall be prepaid, so that the amount of interest contracted for, charged or received under this Promissory Note, on the amount of the Principal Amount actually outstanding from time to time under this Promissory Note shall exceed the maximum amount of interest permitted by the applicable usury laws, then in any such event (i) the provisions of this paragraph shall govern and control, (ii) neither the Company nor any other person or entity now or hereafter liable for the payment thereof, shall be obligated to pay the amount of such interest to the extent that it is in excess of the maximum amount of interest permitted by such applicable usury laws, (iii) any such excess which may have been collected shall be either applied as a credit against the then unpaid principal amount thereof or refunded to the Company at the Holder’s option, and (iv) the effective rate of interest shall be automatically reduced to the maximum lawful rate of interest allowed under the applicable usury laws as now or hereafter construed by the courts having jurisdiction thereof.  It is further agreed that without limitation of the foregoing, all calculations of the rate of interest contracted for, charged or received under the Promissory Note which are made for the purpose of determining whether such rate exceeds the maximum lawful rate of interest, shall be made, to the extent permitted by applicable laws, by amortizing, prorating, allocating and spreading in equal parts during the period of the full stated term of the Promissory Note evidenced thereby, all interest at any time contracted for, charged or received from the Company or otherwise by the Holders in connection with this Promissory Note.

14. Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction.  All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Promissory Note shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Texas, without regard to the principles of conflict of laws thereof.  Each party agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the interpretation, enforcement and defense of the Promissory Note (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective Affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, employees or agents) shall be commenced in the state or federal courts sitting in Harris County, Texas (the “Harris County 

Amended and Restated Secured Promissory Note – Page 5

Courts”).  Each party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Harris County Courts for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of such Harris County Courts, or that such Harris County Courts are improper or inconvenient venue for such proceeding.

15. Amendment and Waiver.  Any waiver or amendment hereto shall be in writing signed by the Holder.  No failure on the part of the Holder to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by the Holder of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other rights.  The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any other remedies provided by law.

16. Restrictions Against Transfer or Assignment.  This Promissory Note may not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of by the registered Holder hereof, in whole or in part, unless and until either (i) the Promissory Note (or the underlying shares herein) have been duly and effectively registered for resale under the Act and under any then applicable state securities laws; or (ii) the registered Holder delivers to the Company a written opinion acceptable to its counsel that an exemption from such registration requirements is then available with respect to any such proposed sale or disposition.  The Company has the absolute right, in its sole discretion, to approve or disapprove such transfer.  Any transfer otherwise permissible hereunder shall be made only at the principle office of the Company upon surrender of this Promissory Note for cancellation and upon the payment of any transfer tax or other government charge connected therewith, and upon any such transfer a new Promissory Note or Promissory Notes will be issued to the transferee in exchange therefor.  The transferee of this Promissory Note shall be bound by the provisions of this Promissory Note.  The register of the transfer of this Promissory Note shall occur upon the delivery of this Promissory Note, endorsed by the registered Holder or his duly authorized attorney, signature guaranteed, to the Company or its transfer agent.  Each Promissory Note instrument issued upon the transfer of this Promissory Note shall have the restrictive legend contained herein conspicuously imprinted on it.

17. Lost or Mutilated Promissory Note.  If this Promissory Note shall be mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall execute and deliver, in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation of a mutilated Promissory Note, or in lieu of or in substitution for a lost, stolen or destroyed Promissory Note, a new Promissory Note for the principal amount of this Promissory Note so mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, but only upon receipt of evidence of such loss, theft or destruction of such Promissory Note, and of the ownership hereof, reasonably satisfactory to the Company and if requested by the Company, indemnity also reasonably satisfactory to the Company.

18. Entire Agreement; Headings.  This Promissory Note constitutes the entire agreement between the Holder and the Company pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements, representations and understandings, written or oral, of such parties.

Change the state in which Debtor’s place of business (or chief executive office if Debtor has more than one place of business) is located, change its name, or convert to a different entity without notifying Secured Party in advance and taking action to continue the perfected status of the security interest in the Collateral.

D. Default and Remedies

1. A default exists if -

a. Debtor fails to timely pay or perform any obligation or covenant in any written agreement between Secured Party and Debtor;

b. any warranty, covenant, or representation in this agreement or in any other written agreement between Secured Party and Debtor is materially false when made;

c. a receiver is appointed for Debtor or any Collateral;

d. any Collateral is assigned for the benefit of creditors;

e. a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding is commenced by Debtor;

f. a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding is commenced against Debtor, and the proceeding continues without dismissal for 60 days, the party against whom the proceeding is commenced admits the material allegations of the petition against it, or an order for relief is entered;

g. Debtor is dissolved, begins to wind up its affairs, is authorized to dissolve or wind up its affairs by its governing body or persons, or any event occurs or condition exists that permits the dissolution or winding up of the affairs of Debtor; or

h. any Collateral is impaired by loss, theft, damage, levy and execution, issuance of an official writ or order of seizure, or destruction, unless it is promptly replaced with collateral of like kind and quality or restored to its former condition.

2. If a default exists that is not cured, Secured Party may -

Amended Security Agreement – Page 4

a. demand, collect, convert, redeem, settle, compromise, receipt for, realize on, sue for, and adjust the Collateral either in Secured Party’s or Debtor’s name, as Secured Party desires, or take control of any proceeds of the Collateral and apply the proceeds against the Obligation;

b. take possession of any Collateral not already in Secured Party’s possession, without demand or legal process, and for that purpose Debtor grants Secured Party the right to enter any premises where the Collateral may be located;

c. without taking possession, sell, lease, or otherwise dispose of the Collateral at any public or private sale in accordance with the law;

d. exercise any rights and remedies granted by law or this agreement;

e. notify obligors on the Collateral to pay Secured Party directly and enforce Debtor’s rights against such obligors; and

f. as Debtor’s agent, make any endorsements in Debtor’s name and on Debtor’s behalf.

3. Foreclosure of this security interest by suit does not limit Secured Party’s remedies, including the right to sell the Collateral under the terms of this agreement. Secured Party may exercise all remedies at the same or different times, and no remedy is a defense to any other. Secured Party’s rights and remedies include all those granted by law and those specified in this agreement.

4. Secured Party’s delay in exercising, partial exercise of, or failure to exercise any of its remedies or rights does not waive Secured Party’s rights to subsequently exercise those remedies or rights. Secured Party’s waiver of any default does not waive any other default by Debtor. Secured Party’s waiver of any right in this agreement or of any default is binding only if it is in writing. Secured Party may remedy any default without waiving it.

5. Secured Party has no obligation to prepare the Collateral for sale.

6. Secured Party has no obligation to collect any of the Collateral and is not liable for failure to collect any of the Collateral, for failure to preserve any rights pertaining to the Collateral, or for any act or omission on the part of Secured Party or Secured Party’s officers, agents, or employees, except willful misconduct.

7. Secured Party has no obligation to satisfy the Obligation by attempting to collect the Obligation from any other person liable for it.  Secured Party may release, modify, or waive any collateral provided by any other person to secure any of the Obligation.  If Secured Party attempts to collect the Obligation from any other person liable for it or releases, modifies, or waives any collateral provided by any other person, that will not affect Secured Party’s rights against Debtor.  

Amended Security Agreement – Page 5

Debtor waives any right Debtor may have to require Secured Party to pursue any third person for any of the Obligation.

8. If Secured Party must comply with any applicable state or federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the Collateral, such compliance will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of a sale of the Collateral.

9. Secured Party may sell the Collateral without giving any warranties as to the Collateral.  Secured Party may specifically disclaim any warranties of title or the like.  This procedure will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of a sale of the Collateral.

10. If Secured Party sells any of the Collateral on credit, Debtor will be credited only with payments actually made by the purchaser and received by Secured Party for application to the indebtedness of the purchaser.  If the purchaser fails to pay for the Collateral, Secured Party may resell the Collateral and Debtor will be credited with the proceeds of the sale.

11. If Secured Party purchases any of the Collateral being sold, Secured Party may pay for the Collateral by crediting the purchase price against the Obligation.

12. Secured Party has no obligation to marshal any assets in favor of Debtor or against or in payment of the Note, or any other obligation owed to Secured Party by Debtor or any other person.

13. If the Collateral is sold after default, recitals in the bill of sale or transfer will be prima facie evidence of their truth and all prerequisites to the sale specified by this agreement and by law will be presumed satisfied.

E. General

1. Notice is reasonable if it is mailed, postage prepaid, to Debtor at Debtor’s Mailing Address at least ten days before any public sale or ten days before the time when the Collateral may be otherwise disposed of without further notice to Debtor.

2. This security interest will neither affect nor be affected by any other security for any of the Obligation. Neither extensions of any of the Obligation nor releases of any of the Collateral will affect the priority or validity of this security interest.

3. This agreement binds, benefits, and may be enforced by the successors in interest of Secured Party and will bind all persons who become bound as debtors to this agreement.  Assignment of any part of the Obligation and Secured Party’s delivery of any part of the Collateral will fully discharge Secured Party from responsibility for that part of the Collateral.  If such an assignment is made, Debtor will render performance under this agreement to the assignee.  Debtor waives and will not assert against any assignee any claims, defenses, or setoffs that Debtor could assert against Secured Party except defenses that cannot be waived.  All representations, warranties, 

Amended Security Agreement – Page 6

and obligations are joint and several as to each Debtor.

4. This agreement may be amended only by an instrument in writing signed by Secured Party and Debtor.

5. The unenforceability of any provision of this agreement will not affect the enforceability or validity of any other provision.

6. This agreement will be construed according to Texas law, without regard to choice-of-law rules in any jurisdiction. This agreement is to be performed in Harris County, the county of Debtor’s Mailing Address.

7. Interest on the Obligation secured by this agreement will not exceed the maximum amount of nonusurious interest that may be contracted for, taken, reserved, charged, or received under law. Any interest in excess of that maximum amount will be credited on the principal of the Obligation or, if that has been paid, refunded. On any acceleration or required or permitted prepayment, any such excess will be canceled automatically as of the acceleration or prepayment or, if already paid, credited on the principal of the Obligation or, if the principal of the Obligation has been paid, refunded. This provision overrides any conflicting provisions in this and all other instruments concerning the Obligation.

8. When the context requires, singular nouns and pronouns include the plural.

9. Any term defined in sections 1.101 to 11.108 of the Texas Business and Commerce Code and not defined in this agreement has the meaning given to the term in the Code.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Security Agreement as of September 8, 2017.

Exhibit 10.11(b)

AWARD AGREEMENT OF TIME-LAPSE
RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS 
UNDER THE ATMOS ENERGY CORPORATION 
1998 LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN 

This Award Agreement of Time-Lapse Restricted Stock Units (“Award Agreement”) is dated as of May 2, 2017, by and between Atmos Energy Corporation, a Texas and Virginia corporation (the "Company"), and you ("Grantee"), pursuant to the Company's 1998 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "Plan").  Capitalized terms that are used, but not defined, in this Award Agreement shall have the meaning set forth in the Plan.

1.    Grant and Description of Units.

Pursuant to authorization by the Human Resources Committee of the Board (the "Committee”), which has been designated by the Board to administer the Plan, the Company hereby grants to the Grantee time-lapse restricted stock units (“Units”) under the Plan, for no consideration from the Grantee, with the restrictions set forth below.  Each such Unit shall be a notional share of common stock of the Company (“Common Stock”), with the value of each Unit being equal to the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock at any time.  No physical certificates representing the number of Units awarded shall be issued to the Grantee, but an account shall be established and maintained for the Grantee, in which each grant of Units to the Grantee shall be recorded.  During the time of the restriction period provided for in Section 2 below, the Grantee shall not have any of the rights of a shareholder of the Company with respect to the Units, except with respect to the payment of cash dividend equivalents during such period, as provided for in Section 6 below.  

2.    Restrictions on Alienation of Units.  

Units awarded hereunder may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated in any manner, whether voluntarily, by operation of law, or otherwise, until the restrictions on the Units are removed and the Units are delivered to the Grantee in the form of shares of Common Stock in the manner described below in Section 8.

3.    Vesting of Units. 

If the Grantee has attained the age of 55 and completed three (3) consecutive years of service with the Company (referred to as “Retirement Eligible”) on the date of the grant of the Units, he or she shall be vested in the Units on the later of June 1 of the year in which the grant is made or the date of the grant.  If the Grantee becomes Retirement Eligible after the date of grant and prior to the date for distribution of shares of Common Stock represented by the Units, the Grantee shall be vested in the Units at the later of June 1 of the year in which he or she becomes Retirement Eligible or the actual date during such year that he or she becomes Retirement Eligible.  However, the Grantee shall not be entitled to the removal of the restrictions on such Units provided for in Section 2 above or to a distribution of shares of Common Stock represented by the number of Units until the time provided for in Section 8 below.  In addition, the Grantee’s portion of applicable payroll (FICA) taxes shall be withheld from the first 

scheduled bi-weekly paycheck in December of the year in which such vesting occurs.  The amount of payroll taxes due shall be based on the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock represented by the number of Units as of the last business day of the pay period to which the first scheduled payroll check in December applies.    

		
	4.
	Forfeiture of Units.  

If the Grantee is not otherwise vested as provided in Section 3 above, all Units granted shall be forfeited if the Grantee has a voluntary or involuntary Termination of Service for any reason other than as described below in Section 5.  Each Grantee, by his or her acceptance of the Units, agrees to execute any documents requested by the Company in connection with such forfeiture.  Such provisions with respect to forfeited Units shall be specifically performable by the Company in a court of equity or law.  Upon any forfeiture, all rights of the Grantee with respect to the forfeited Units shall cease and terminate, without any further obligation on the part of the Company. 

		
	5.
	Removal of Restrictions.

(a)  Death, Disability, Certain Involuntary Terminations and Terminations following a Change in Control. 

 At the time and on the date of the Grantee's death, Termination of Service due to Total and Permanent Disability, involuntary Termination of Service due to a general reduction in force or specific elimination of the Grantee's job, or Termination of Service for any reason following a Change in Control, while employed by the Company or a Subsidiary, all Units shall be vested and all other restrictions placed on the Units shall be removed.  The Grantee, or his or her legal representatives, beneficiaries or heirs shall then be entitled to a distribution, as provided in Section 8 below, of shares of Common Stock equal in number to the number of Units set forth in Section 1 above.   

(b)  Retirement. 
 
At the time and on the date of the Grantee's Retirement on or after becoming Retirement Eligible, no distribution of Units shall occur and the restrictions provided for in Section 2 above shall remain in place until such time as the Grantee, or his or her legal representatives, beneficiaries or heirs shall be entitled to a distribution, as provided in Section 8 below, of shares of Common Stock equal in number to the number of Units set forth in Section 1 above.   

		
	6.
	Payment of Cash Dividend Equivalents.

Cash dividend equivalents shall be paid on the Units to the Grantee through the Company payroll system in an amount equal to the cash dividends actually paid each calendar quarter on the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock.  Such cash dividend equivalents shall be paid at the end of the payroll period in which such cash dividends are actually paid to the Company’s shareholders and shall cease as of the Distribution Date (as defined in Section 8 below).  However, the payment of cash dividend equivalents shall not be considered to be “eligible compensation,” as such term is defined under either the Company’s Retirement Savings Plan or Pension Account Plan.  

		
	7.
	Adjustment Upon Changes in Stock.

If there shall be any change in the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding resulting from subdivision, combination, or reclassification of shares, or through merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization, stock dividend, stock split or other change in the corporate structure, an appropriate 

adjustment in the number of Units with respect to which restrictions have not lapsed shall be made by the Committee.  Depending upon the change in corporate structure, the Committee shall issue additional Units or substitute Units to the Grantee for his or her account, which shall have the same restrictions, terms and conditions as the original Units. Any such adjustment shall be in accordance with the applicable provisions of Section 14 and/or Section 15 of the Plan. 

		
	8.
	Distribution of Common Stock or Cash.

As soon as administratively possible, as determined solely by the Company, following the earlier of the date of the occurrence of a termination event described in Section 5(a) above or the date which is three (3) years from the date of grant of the Units (such date being referred to as the “Distribution Date”), but in no event later than 90 days following the Distribution Date, the Grantee shall receive a distribution, as provided herein, of shares of Common Stock equal in number to the number of Units set forth in Section 1 above (subject to the withholding requirements set forth in Section 9 below), provided the Grantee has been an employee of the Company or a Subsidiary with continuous service from the date of grant to the Distribution Date, except in the event of the Grantee’s Termination of Service or Retirement as discussed in Section 5 above.  Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, in the case of a distribution of shares of Common Stock on account of any Termination of Service as provided for above in Section 5 above, other than death, a distribution of the number of such shares, determined after application of the withholding requirements set forth in Section 9 below, plus any dividends payable with respect to such number of shares, on behalf of the Grantee, if the Grantee is a "specified employee" as defined in §1.409A-1(i) of the Final Regulations under Code Section 409A, to the extent otherwise required under Section 409A, shall not occur until the date which is six (6) months following the date of the Grantee’s Termination of Service (or, if earlier, the date of death of the Grantee).  Upon a distribution of shares of Common Stock as provided herein, the Company shall cause the Common Stock then being distributed to be registered in the Grantee’s name, but shall not issue certificates for the Common Stock unless the Grantee requests delivery of the certificates for the Common Stock, in writing in accordance with the procedures established by the Company.  The Company shall deliver certificates to the Grantee as soon as administratively practicable following the Company’s receipt of a written request from the Grantee for delivery of the certificates. From and after the date of receipt of such distribution, the Grantee or the Grantee's legal representatives, beneficiaries or heirs, as the case may be, shall have full rights of transfer or resale with respect to such shares subject to applicable state and federal regulations. Notwithstanding any provisions of this Award Agreement to the contrary, in lieu of a distribution of shares of Common Stock, the Company shall have the option to settle the payment of some or all of the Units in an economically equivalent amount of cash.  
 
9.    Withholding Requirements.

Upon the removal or lapse of the restrictions on the Units, the number of shares of Common Stock to be distributed by the Company to the Grantee, which are equal to the number of Units set forth in Section 1 above, or an economically equivalent amount of cash, as discussed in Section 8 above, shall be subject to applicable withholding requirements for income and employment taxes (unless withheld earlier at the time of vesting, as described in Section 3 above) arising from the removal or lapse of the restrictions on the Units.  However, if the Grantee is a "specified employee" as defined in §1.409A-1(i) of the Final Regulations under Code Section 409A who is subject to the six (6) months delay provided for in Section 8 above, the Company shall, on the date of the Grantee’s Termination of Service, based on the value of a share of Common Stock on such date, withhold the number of shares attributable to any employment taxes not withheld earlier and shall, on the date which occurs six (6) months following the date of the Grantee’s Termination of Service (or, if earlier, the date of death of the Grantee), based on the value of a 

share of Common Stock on such date, withhold the number of shares attributable to income taxes.  Dividends will also be payable on such date to the Grantee for such delay period based on the net number of shares.               

10.    Modification.

This Award Agreement may be changed or modified without the Grantee's consent or signature, if the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that such change or modification is necessary for purposes of compliance with or exemption from the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and any regulations or other guidance issued thereunder, or otherwise to comply with any law.  

Grantee acknowledges that as of the grant date, this Award Agreement and the Plan set forth the entire understanding between Grantee and the Company regarding the acquisition of the Units granted under the Plan and supersede all prior oral and written agreements on this subject. By Grantee’s electronic acceptance and the signature of the Company’s representative below, Grantee and the Company agree that the Units are granted under and governed by this Award Agreement and the Plan. Grantee has reviewed and fully understands all provisions of this Award Agreement and the Plan in their entirety.
