 XENON PHARMACEUTICALS INC. 

COMMON SHARE PUT AGREEMENT 

THIS COMMON SHARE PUT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of March 19, 2014, by and
between XENON PHARMACEUTICALS INC., a corporation continued under the federal laws of Canada (the “Company”), and ROCHE FINANCE LTD, a Swiss company (“Purchaser”). 

RECITALS 
 WHEREAS,
concurrent with the execution of this Agreement, the Company and Genentech, Inc., an affiliate of Purchaser, have entered into that certain Target Discovery Research Collaboration Agreement, dated the date hereof (the “Collaboration
Agreement”); and 
 WHEREAS, the Company and the Purchaser have agreed that they will enter into this Common Share Put
Agreement (the “Agreement”) concurrently with the execution of the Collaboration Agreement whereby the Company will have the right to require the Purchaser to purchase certain of its common shares without par value
(“Common Shares”) for an aggregate purchase price of up to US$5 million on the terms and conditions set forth herein. 

AGREEMENT 
 NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and the mutual promises, representations, warranties, and covenants hereinafter set forth and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
 1. RIGHT TO REQUIRE PURCHASER TO PURCHASE COMMON SHARES. 

1.1 Right To Require Purchase of Common Shares. In the event that the Company sends a written notice to the Purchaser on or before
December 31, 2014(the “Put Notice”) notifying the Purchaser, in good faith, that the Company expects within 30 days from the date of the Put Notice to consummate an initial public offering of its Common Shares pursuant to an
effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to which the Company will receive aggregate gross proceeds of at least US $40 million (including the proceeds to
be received from the sale and purchase of Common Shares under the Put Notice) and pursuant to which all of the Company’s outstanding redeemable convertible preferred shares (the “Preferred Shares”) convert to Common
Shares of the Company (a “Triggering IPO”), then the Purchaser will be obligated to and will purchase, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, in a concurrent private placement a number of Common
Shares (the “Shares”) equal to the lesser of: 
 (a) the number of Common Shares that is equal to the quotient obtained by
dividing US$5 million (the “Committed Investment Amount”) by a price equal to the per share offer price of the Common Shares in the Triggering IPO (“IPO Price”); and 

 (b) the number of Common Shares that, after giving effect to the conversion of any Preferred
Shares, common shares or other shares that may be convertible at the time of the Closing, will result in the Purchaser together with its affiliates, beneficially owning no more than 4.99% of the outstanding Common Shares (for clarification,
including the Shares) or the voting power of the Company (the “Ownership Maximum”) after the Closing (as defined below). 

For clarification purpose, as long as the Company has provided the Put Notice that it expects within 30 days from the date of the Put Notice
to consummate a Triggering IPO, the Purchaser will be obligated to purchase the Shares on the Closing Date (as defined below) even though the Triggering IPO is not completed as expected within 30 days of the date of the Put Notice, provided that the
Triggering IPO is completed on or before December 31, 2014. 
 1.2 Private Placement. This Agreement, as well as the sale and
purchase of the Shares, will be done by way of a private placement exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable laws, regulations, rules, and policies in United States, applicable state law (collectively, “US
Laws”) and applicable securities laws, regulations, rules, and policies in British Columbia Canada (“BC Securities Laws”). 

1.3 Closing Date. The closing of the purchase of the Shares will be held concurrently with the closing of the Triggering IPO, which
must occur on or before December 31, 2014 (the “Closing”). The Closing, if any, will take place concurrently with the date and time set for the closing of the Triggering IPO at a place within North America as the Company
specified in a written notice to the Purchaser at least 3 Business Days before Closing (the date of such closing is hereinafter referred to as the “Closing Date”). At the Closing, subject to the terms and conditions set forth
in this Agreement and in consideration of the payment by Purchaser of the aggregate purchase price equal to the product of the IPO Price and the number of Shares as determined above, the Company will deliver to Purchaser a certificate representing
the Shares. 
 1.4 No Obligation to Sell if No Put Notice Delivered. For clarification purpose, the Company will have no obligation
to sell and the Purchaser will have no obligation to purchase any Common Shares if the Company does not deliver a Put Notice to the Purchaser and nothing in this Agreement shall be read to confer any right or entitlement on the Purchaser to obligate
the Company to sell any Common Shares to it unless and until a Put Notice is delivered by the Company to the Purchaser. 
 2.
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY. 
 Except as set forth on a Schedule of Exceptions delivered by the Company to
Purchaser on the date of this Agreement, and an update to such Schedule of Exceptions delivered by the Company at the Closing, the Company hereby represents and warrants to Purchaser as of the date of this

purchase order or contract to which it is a party or by which it is bound or of any judgment, decree, order or writ other than any such violation that would not have a Material Adverse Effect. The execution, delivery, and performance of and
compliance with this Agreement will not, with or without the passage of time or giving of notice, result in any such material violation, or be in material conflict with or constitute a material default under (or require a consent under) any such
term or provision, or result in the creation of any material mortgage, pledge, lien, encumbrance or charge upon any of the properties or assets of the Company or the suspension, revocation, impairment, forfeiture or nonrenewal of any permit,
license, authorization or approval applicable to the Company, its business or operations or any of its assets or properties. 
 2.13
Litigation. There is no claim, action, suit, proceeding, arbitration, complaint, charge or investigation pending before any court or governmental agency or, to the Company’s knowledge, currently threatened in writing against the Company

obligations contemplated hereby. 
 2.14 Tax Returns and Payments. The Company has timely filed all tax returns (federal, provincial,
local and foreign) required to be filed by it, except where the failure to do so would not have a Material Adverse Effect, and all such tax returns are correct and complete in all material respects. All taxes shown to be due and payable on such
returns, any assessments imposed and, to the Company’s knowledge, all other taxes due and payable by the Company on or before the Closing, have been timely paid or will be paid prior to the time they become delinquent. The Company has not been

any applicable statute, rule, regulation, order or restriction of any domestic or foreign government or any instrumentality or agency thereof in respect of the conduct of its business or the ownership of its properties, except where such violation
would not have a Material Adverse Effect. No governmental orders, permissions, consents, approvals or authorizations are required to be obtained and no registrations or declarations are required to be filed in connection with the execution and
delivery of this Agreement, except such as have been duly and validly obtained or filed, or with respect to any filings that must be made after the Closing, as will be filed in a timely manner. To the knowledge of the Company, the Company has all
franchises, permits, licenses and any similar authority necessary for the conduct of its business as now being conducted by it, the lack of which would have a Material Adverse Effect. 

2.16 Environmental and Safety Laws. To its knowledge, the Company is not in violation of any applicable statute, law or regulation
relating to the environment or occupational health and safety, and to its knowledge, no material expenditures are or will be required in order to comply with any such existing statute, law or regulation.

warranties do not lessen or obviate the representations and warranties of the Company set forth in this Agreement): 
 3.1 Requisite
Power and Authority. Purchaser has all necessary power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to carry out its provisions. All action on Purchaser’s part required for the lawful execution and delivery of this Agreement has
been taken. Upon its execution and delivery, this Agreement will be a valid and binding obligation of Purchaser, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except (a) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or
other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights, and (b) as limited by general principles of equity that restrict the availability of equitable remedies. 

3.2 Investment Representations. Purchaser understands that the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be
offered, sold or otherwise transferred in the 

  
 -8- 

 
United States in the absence of a registration statement in effect with respect to the Shares under the Securities Act or any exemption from such registration is available. Purchaser also
understands that the Shares are being issued and sold to it in a transaction that is exempt from the registration requirement and the prospectus requirement under the BC Securities Laws as well as an exemption available pursuant to Regulation D
promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “1933 Act”), or another applicable exemption under the 1933 Act, and the Shares will be subject to resale restrictions under National Instrument 45-102-Resale of Securities and may not be
resold in Canada before the date that is four (4) months and one (1) day after the later of the (i) the Closing Date and (ii) the date the Company becomes a reporting issuer in any province or territory of Canada; provided
however that this restriction shall not apply once the Company is listed in the United States. The Purchaser further understands that the Shares are being offered and sold pursuant to an exemption from registration contained in the Securities Act
based upon Purchaser’s representations contained in this Agreement. Purchaser hereby represents and warrants as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date as follows: 

(a) Purchaser Bears Economic Risk. Purchaser has substantial experience in evaluating and investing in private placement transactions
of securities in companies similar to the Company so that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in the Company and has the capacity to protect its own interests. Purchaser acknowledges that the Shares are speculative
investments which involve a substantial degree of risk. Purchaser must bear the economic risk of this investment indefinitely unless the Shares are registered pursuant to the Securities Act or the Company becomes a reporting issuer under BC
Securities Laws and US Laws, or an exemption from registration is available. Purchaser also understands that there is no assurance that any exemption from registration under the Securities Act, US Laws or the BC Securities Laws will be available and
that, even if available, such exemption may not allow Purchaser to transfer all or any portion of the Shares under the circumstances, in the amounts or at the times Purchaser might propose. 

(b) Consult Own Advisors. The Purchaser acknowledges that the investment in the Shares may have tax and/or other consequences to the
Purchaser under applicable laws, which the Purchaser is solely responsible for determining and in respect of which no assistance will be provided by the Company or its advisers, and the Purchaser has obtained or has waived any right to obtain its
own legal and tax advice. The Purchaser will comply with all applicable securities laws (including but not limited to the US Laws and BC Securities Laws) concerning the purchase or any resale of the Shares and has consulted with its own legal
advisers with respect to such compliance. The Purchaser has also obtained tax advice from its own tax advisor as it deems necessary. 
 (c)
Acquisition for Own Account. Purchaser is acquiring the Shares as principal and for Purchaser’s own account for investment only, and not with a view towards their distribution and the Purchaser has no present intention of selling,
granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the Shares. Purchaser further represents that it does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person or entity to sell, transfer or grant participation to such
person or entity or to any third person or entity with respect to any of the Shares. 

  
 -9- 

 (d) Purchaser Can Protect Its Interest. Purchaser represents that by reason of its, or of
its management’s, business or financial experience, Purchaser has the capacity to protect its own interests in connection with the transactions contemplated in this Agreement. Further, Purchaser is aware of no publication of any advertisement
in connection with the transactions contemplated in this Agreement. 
 (e) Accredited Investor. Purchaser represents that it is an
accredited investor within the meaning of Regulation D under the Securities Act and as defined in the National Instrument 45-106 – Prospectus and Registration Exemptions, and has completed and submitted to the Company upon execution of
this Agreement and as of the Closing Date an Accredited Investor Certificate in the form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit A and the Purchaser shall submit to the Company such further assurances of such status as may be reasonably requested by
the Company. The Purchaser has furnished or made available any and all information requested by the Company or otherwise necessary to satisfy any applicable verification requirements as to “accredited investor” status. Any such information
is true, correct, timely and complete. The Purchaser is not created or used solely to purchase or hold securities in reliance on the exemption for an “Accredited Investor”. 

(f) Foreign Investors. If Purchaser is not a United States person (as defined by Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended) (a “Foreign Purchaser”), Purchaser has satisfied itself as to the full observance of the laws of its jurisdiction in connection with any invitation to subscribe for the Shares or any use of this
Agreement, including (i) the legal requirements within its jurisdiction for the purchase of the Shares, (ii) any foreign exchange restrictions applicable to such purchase, (iii) any governmental or other consents that may need to be
obtained, and (iv) the income tax and other tax consequences, if any, that may be relevant to the purchase, holding, redemption, sale or transfer of the Shares. Purchaser’s subscription and payment for and continued beneficial ownership of
the Shares, will not violate any applicable securities or other laws of Purchaser’s jurisdiction. 
 (g) Company Information.
Purchaser has received and read the Company’s financial statements and has had an opportunity to discuss the Company’s business, management and financial affairs with directors, officers and management of the Company and has had the
opportunity to review the Company’s operations and facilities. Purchaser has also had the opportunity to ask questions of the Company and its management regarding the terms and conditions of this investment, which questions were answered to its
satisfaction. Purchaser believes that it has received all information Purchaser considers necessary or appropriate for deciding whether to purchase the Shares. Purchaser acknowledges that any business plans prepared by the Company have been, and
continue to be, subject to change and that any projections included in such business plans or otherwise, while based on assumptions believed to be reasonable, are necessarily speculative in nature, and it can be expected that some or all of the
assumptions underlying the projections will not materialize or will vary significantly from actual results. Purchaser also acknowledges that it is relying solely on its own counsel and not on the Company or its agents for legal advice with respect
to this investment or the transactions contemplated by the Agreement. 
 (h) Rule 144. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that
the Shares are “restricted securities” as defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act as in effect from 

  
 -10- 

 
time to time and must be held in accordance with the time periods specified therein unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is
available. Purchaser has been advised or is aware of the provisions of Rule 144, which permits limited resale of securities purchased in a private placement subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, which may include, among other
things: the availability of certain current public information about the Company, the resale occurring following the required holding period under Rule 144 and the number of securities being sold during any three-month period not exceeding
specified limitations. Purchaser acknowledges and understands that the Company may not be satisfying the current public information requirement of Rule 144 at the time Purchaser wishes to sell the Shares, and that, in such event, Purchaser may be
precluded from selling such securities under Rule 144, until such requirements are satisfied or no longer applicable. Purchaser acknowledges that, in the event the applicable requirements of Rule 144 are not met, registration under the Securities
Act or an exemption from registration will be required for any disposition of the Shares. 
 (i) Disclosure of Certain Information as
Required by law The Purchaser understands that the Company may be required by law or otherwise to disclose to regulatory authorities the identity of and other information in relation to the Purchaser and agrees that such information may be
provided by the Company if and as, in the discretion of the Company, such disclosure is required or desirable and this shall be deemed to be the consent or approval from the Purchaser to the Company for using, disclosing or in other manner dealing
with such information under applicable privacy legislation 
 (j) Residence. The office or offices of Purchaser in which its
investment decision was made is located at the address or addresses of Purchaser set forth on the signature page hereof.

3.4 Legends. Purchaser understands and agrees that the certificates evidencing the Shares, or any other securities issued in respect of
the Shares upon any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, merger, consolidation or similar event, shall bear the following legend (in addition to any legend required by the Investor Rights Agreement and applicable federal, provincial, state

[Grant Date]

[Participant Name]

Dear [Participant Name]:
I am very pleased to announce that, effective [Grant Date] (“Grant Date”), the Board of Directors of Universal Technical Institute, Inc. (“Company”) has granted you restricted stock units for [Number of Shares Granted] shares of the Company’s common stock under Article 10.2 of the Universal Technical Institute, Inc. 2003 Incentive Compensation Plan, as amended (“Plan”).  This letter serves as the Restricted Stock Unit Agreement (“Agreement”) between the Company and you (“Grantee”).
RECITALS
A.    The Company has adopted the Plan to provide incentives to attract and retain those individuals whose services are considered valuable by providing them an opportunity to own stock in the Company.
B.    The Company believes that entering into this Agreement with you is consistent with those purposes.  Any capitalized term not defined in this Agreement is defined in the Plan.
NOW, THEREFORE, the Company and you agree as follows:
AGREEMENT
1.GRANT OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS.  Subject to the terms of this Agreement and the Plan, the Company grants to you [Number of Shares Granted] restricted stock units (“Restricted Stock Units”).  Each Restricted Stock Unit represents the right to receive one share of the Company’s common stock (“Stock”), subject to any adjustments pursuant to Section 5.A or 6 of this Agreement or Article 14 of the Plan and subject to the restrictions and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan.    
2.YOUR RIGHTS AS A GRANT RECIPIENT.  The Restricted Stock Units granted pursuant to this award do not and shall not entitle Grantee to any rights of a holder of Stock of the Company.  Grantee shall have no voting rights, dividend rights or other stockholder rights until such time as the Restricted Stock Units are paid out in Stock pursuant to Section 5 hereof, and no dividend equivalents will accrue on the Restricted Stock Units. The rights of Grantee with respect to the Restricted Stock Units shall remain forfeitable at all times prior to the date on which such rights become vested in accordance with Section 4 hereof.  The Restricted Stock Units and your rights and obligations relating to them shall at all times be subject to the provisions of the Plan as in effect from time to time.  The Plan is a part of this Agreement. 
3.TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS.  No Restricted Stock Units granted under this award may be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, encumbered or otherwise alienated, hypothecated or disposed of, other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. Any attempted sale, transfer, pledge, assignment, exchange, alienation hypothecation or disposition of any Restricted Stock Units in violation of this Agreement will be invalid. In the event of Grantee’s death, any Stock distributable in settlement of vested Restricted Stock Units will be delivered, at the time specified in Section 5 of this Agreement, to Grantee’s beneficiary in accordance with, and subject to, the terms and conditions hereof and of the Plan.    
4.CONTINUOUS EMPLOYMENT REQUIREMENT AND VESTING.
A.Continuous Employment Requirement.  Except as provided in Section 4.B of this Agreement or as determined by the Committee pursuant to the Plan, the Grantee must remain in the continuous employ of or service to the Company (or a Subsidiary) throughout the entire period from the Grant Date through 

each Vesting Date (as defined below), or Grantee will forfeit any unvested Restricted Stock Units and any Stock underlying such Restricted Stock Units.  The Grantee’s continuous employment of or service to the Company (or a Subsidiary) will not be deemed to have been interrupted by reason of a transfer of Grantee’s employment between the Company and a Subsidiary or an approved leave of absence.
B.Vesting Schedule.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including the requirements of Section 4.A, [____%] of the Restricted Stock Units shall vest on each anniversary of the Grant Date, beginning with the one-year anniversary of the Grant Date (each anniversary, a “Vesting Date”). 
Notwithstanding the foregoing: (I) all Restricted Stock Units shall vest upon (i) Grantee’s death, (ii) Grantee’s Disability, or (iii) if, within one year following a Change of Control, Grantee’s employment with, or service to, the Company is terminated without Cause or Grantee terminates Grantee’s employment or service for Good Reason; and (II) if Grantee experiences a qualifying Retirement (as defined below), then any portion of the Restricted Stock Units that are scheduled to vest within twelve (12) months following such Retirement shall continue to vest in accordance with their terms as if Grantee were still employed, notwithstanding any continuous employment or service requirements applicable generally under the Plan or this Agreement, subject to Grantee’s continued compliance with the covenants set forth in Sections 12 (Covenant Not to Compete) and 13 (Confidential Information) of Grantee’s Employment Agreement (as defined below), and subject to Grantee having signed and not revoked the release described in Section 11 (Release) of the Employment Agreement during the sixty (60) day period following such Retirement.  If Grantee’s employment with, or service to, the Company is terminated for any reason other than the reasons set forth in the preceding sentence, then all Restricted Stock Units that are at that time unvested shall be forfeited as provided in Section 10.2(c) of the Plan.  
If Grantee experiences a qualifying Retirement as contemplated by the preceding paragraph and defined below, then any portion of the Restricted Stock Units that are scheduled to vest after the twelve (12) month period following Grantee’s Retirement date shall immediately be forfeited upon such Retirement.  In addition, if Grantee fails to comply with any provision of Sections 12 and 13 of the Employment Agreement following a Retirement, then all unvested Restricted Stock Units will be forfeited and any Restricted Stock Units that vested following the Retirement in accordance with clause II of the preceding paragraph shall be subject to disgorgement under Section 12 of the Employment Agreement. 
 “Cause” shall have the definition set forth in the Plan and shall additionally include your willful and/or gross misconduct that results in significant harm to the Company or its operations, properties, reputation, goodwill or business relationships as determined by the Company in its sole reasonable discretion.
A qualifying “Retirement” for purposes of this Agreement shall mean any termination of Grantee’s employment with or service to the Company that qualifies as a Retirement under Section 7(b)(i) of the Employment Agreement (for the avoidance of doubt, including and subject to the exceptions described in clauses (A)-(C) of Section 7(b)(i) of the Employment Agreement).
“Employment Agreement” means the employment agreement, effective as of April 8, 2014, between Grantee and the Company.
5.PAYOUT OF VESTED RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS.  
A.Form of Payment.  Vested Restricted Stock Units will be paid only in the form of Stock.  Fractional shares of Stock shall not be issuable hereunder.  Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, if the number of shares that would vest pursuant to Section 4.B would result in a fractional share for a Vesting Date, then the number of shares vested at that Vesting Date shall be rounded up to the nearest whole share; provided, however, that the number of shares to vest as of the last Vesting Date shall be rounded down to such number that will result in the total number of shares vesting equaling the total number of Restricted Stock Units set forth in Section 1.  Fractional shares that result from tax withholding pursuant to Section 6 shall be governed by that Section.

B.Timing of Payment.  Unvested Restricted Stock Units shall be reflected in a bookkeeping entry form maintained by the Company.  No shares of Stock shall be issued to Grantee prior to the date(s) on which the Restricted Stock Units vest in accordance with Section 4.  Promptly after any Restricted Stock Units vest pursuant to Section 4, and in no event later than 2 1⁄2 months after the end of the calendar year in which such Restricted Stock Units vest, the Company shall cause to be issued and distributed, in book-entry form, shares of Stock in payment of such Restricted Stock Units to Grantee (or, if the Grantee is deceased, to Grantee’s beneficiary designated as permitted by the Plan); provided, however, that if the Restricted Stock Units are characterized as deferred compensation for purposes of Section 409A of the Code, payment of the Restricted Stock Units will be made in a manner that complies with Section 409A. 
6.FEDERAL AND STATE TAXES.  You may incur certain liabilities for federal, state or local taxes in connection with the grant, vesting or payment of the Restricted Stock Units hereunder, or in connection with being or becoming eligible for Retirement, and the Company may be required by law to withhold such taxes.  You hereby agree that (i) the Company may withhold all applicable taxes (including any FICA taxes) that accrue in connection with being or becoming eligible for Retirement from your regular wages or salary, or may require you to deliver a cash payment for any shortfall in such withholdings, by the applicable withholding date; and (ii) the Company will withhold all applicable taxes at the time of vesting or payment of the Restricted Stock Units by reducing the number of shares issued to you by that number of shares having an aggregate Fair Market Value which is necessary to satisfy the tax obligation arising from the vesting or payment of the shares; provided, however, that you will be liable for any deficiency.  If the number of shares issuable to you following satisfaction of the tax obligation (as described in the foregoing sentence) includes any fractional shares, you agree that the Company may issue to you a cash payment in lieu of such fractional share. The Company or a Subsidiary may, in the discretion of the Committee, provide for or require alternative arrangements to satisfy applicable tax withholding requirements.
7.ADJUSTMENT OF SHARES.  In the event of a change in the Company’s capital structure, Article 14 of the Plan shall govern any adjustment to the number of Restricted Stock Units awarded to you pursuant to this Agreement.
8.SECTION 409A.  Notwithstanding Section 5 hereof, in the event that Grantee is entitled to receive shares of Stock as a result of the application of clause (I)(iii) of Section 4.B hereof due to a termination of employment following a Change of Control, and is a “specified employee” (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code) at the time of such termination of employment, Grantee will not be entitled to receive any such shares of Stock before the date which is 6 months after his separation from service (as such term is defined for purposes of Section 409A of the Code), unless the receipt of such shares prior to such date is permitted under Section 409A, including pursuant to the application of section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) of the Treasury Regulations.
9.COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS; RESTRICTIONS ON AWARD AND STOCK.  Notwithstanding any other provision in the Plan or this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall not be obligated to issue or deliver any Stock hereunder, unless and until the Board has determined, with the advice of counsel, that the issuance and delivery of such Stock is in compliance with all applicable laws, regulations of governmental authorities and, if applicable, the requirements of any exchange on which the shares of Stock are listed or traded.  All Stock delivered hereunder is subject to any stop-transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee deems necessary or advisable to comply with Federal, state, or foreign jurisdiction, securities or other laws, rules and regulations and the rules of any national securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Stock is listed, quoted, or traded.  The Committee may place legends on any Stock to reference restrictions applicable to the Stock.  In addition to the terms and conditions provided herein and in the Plan, the Board may require that a Participant make such reasonable covenants, agreements, and representations as the Board, in its discretion, deems advisable in order to comply with any such laws, regulations, or requirements.  
10.AMENDMENT OF PLAN and this AGREEMENT.  The Plan may be terminated, amended or modified from time to time as provided therein.  Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, including without limitation, the provisions of Article 14, no termination, amendment or modification of the Plan after the Grant Date will adversely affect in any material way the Restricted Stock Units awarded under this Agreement without the Grantee’s written consent.  

11.GOVERNING LAW.  This Agreement shall be governed in all respects, whether as to validity, construction, capacity, performance or otherwise, by the laws of the State of Arizona, without regard to conflicts-of-laws principles that would require the application of any other law.  
12.SEVERABILITY.  If any provision of this Agreement, or the application of any such provision to any person or circumstance, is held to be unenforceable or invalid by any court of competent jurisdiction or under any applicable law, the parties hereto shall negotiate an equitable adjustment to the provisions of this Agreement with the view to effecting, to the greatest extent possible, the original purpose and intent of this Agreement, and in any event, the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby.
13.ELECTRONIC DELIVERY.  The Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related to grants awarded under the Plan or future grants that may be awarded under the Plan by electronic means or request Grantee’s consent to participate in the Plan by electronic means. Grantee hereby consents to receive such documents by electronic delivery and agrees to participate in the Plan through an on-line or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or another third party designated by the Company.
14.ENTIRE AGREEMENT.  This Agreement constitutes the entire, final, and complete agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements, promises, understandings, negotiations, representations, and commitments, both written and oral, between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof.  Neither party hereto shall be bound by or liable for any statement, representation, promise, inducement, commitment or understanding of any kind whatsoever not expressly set forth in this Agreement.
