used but not defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed thereto by the Plan); 
 WHEREAS, the Grantee is

	 	2.	Restrictions and Conditions. 

 The Restricted Stock awarded pursuant to this Agreement and the Plan shall be subject to the following restrictions and conditions: 
 (i) Subject to clauses (iii), (iv) and (v) below, the period of restriction with respect to Shares granted hereunder (the “Restriction Period”) shall begin on the date hereof and lapse, if and
as service continues on the following schedule:

	  	[            	] 

 For purposes of the Plan and this Agreement, Shares with respect to which the
Restriction Period has lapsed shall be vested. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Restriction Period with respect to such Shares shall only lapse as to whole Shares. Subject to the provisions

 
of the Plan and this Agreement, during the Restriction Period, the Grantee shall not be permitted voluntarily or involuntarily to sell, transfer, pledge, hypothecate, alienate, encumber or assign
the Shares of Restricted Stock awarded under the Plan (or have such Shares attached or garnished).

receive dividends. Unless otherwise provided by the Committee in this Agreement, the Grantee shall be entitled to receive any cash dividends on any shares of Restricted Stock (whether or not then subject to restrictions) which have not been
forfeited. Shares (not subject to restrictions) shall be delivered to the Grantee or his or her designee promptly after, and only after, the Restriction Period shall lapse without forfeiture in respect of such Shares of Restricted Stock. 

(iii) Subject to clauses (iv) and (v) below, upon the Grantee’s Termination of Service by the Company or its Subsidiaries for
Cause or by the Grantee for any reason other than his or her death or Disability during the Restriction Period, then all Shares still subject to restriction shall thereupon, and with no further action, be forfeited by the Grantee. 
 (iv) In the event the Grantee has a Termination of Service on account of death or Disability or on account of Termination of Service by the
Company for any reason other than for Cause during the Restriction Period, the Restriction Period will immediately lapse on all Restricted Stock granted to the Grantee. 
 (v) In the event the Grantee has a Termination of Service (other than a Termination of Service by the Company for Cause) within 12 months following a Change in Control during the Restriction Period, the
Restriction Period will immediately lapse on all Restricted Stock granted to the Grantee. 
  

	 	3.	Miscellaneous. 

  

	 	(a)	THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO ANY PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW WHICH
COULD CAUSE THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANY JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE STATE OF NEW YORK. The captions of this Agreement are not part of the provisions hereof and shall have no force or effect. This Agreement may not be amended or modified
except by a written agreement executed by the parties hereto or their respective successors and legal representatives. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other
provision of this Agreement.

attention of the Board; and if to the Grantee, shall be delivered personally, sent by facsimile transmission or mailed to the Grantee at the address appearing in the records of the Company. Such addresses may be changed at any time by written notice
to the other party given in accordance with this paragraph 3(b). 

  

	 	(c)	Without limiting the Grantee’s rights as may otherwise be applicable in the event of a Change in Control, if the Company shall be consolidated or merged with
another corporation or other entity, the Grantee may be required to deposit with the successor corporation the certificates for the stock or securities or the other property that the Grantee is entitled to receive by reason of ownership of
Restricted Stock in a manner consistent with the Plan, and such stock, securities or other property shall become subject to the restrictions and requirements imposed under the Plan and this Agreement, and the certificates therefor or other evidence
shall bear a legend similar in form and substance to the legend set forth in the Plan. 

 Any shares or other
securities distributed to the grantee with respect to Restricted Stock or otherwise issued in substitution of Restricted Stock shall be subject to the restrictions and requirements imposed by the Plan and this Agreement, including depositing the
certificates therefor with the Company together with a stock power and bearing a legend as provided in the Plan. 
  

	 	(d)	The failure of the Grantee or the Company to insist upon strict compliance with any provision of this Agreement, or to assert any right the Grantee or the Company,
respectively, may have under this Agreement, shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such provision or right or any other provision or right of this Agreement. 

  

	 	(e)	The Company shall be entitled to withhold from any payments or deemed payments any amount of tax withholding it determines to be required by law.

  

	 	(f)	Nothing in this Agreement shall confer on the Grantee any right to continue in the service of the Company or its Subsidiaries or interfere in any way with the right of
the Company or its Subsidiaries and its stockholders to terminate the Grantee’s service at any time. 

  

	 	(g)	This Agreement contains the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, with
respect thereto.
