vested in the RSUs in              equal installments, on the
                             anniversaries of the Grant Date (i.e.
                , or             % on each anniversary) (which may be rounded to
avoid fractional RSU Shares) (each, a “Scheduled Vesting Date” for this Award). The Grantee’s rights in respect of all of his or her unvested RSUs are subject to the provisions set forth in Paragraph 4 and
Section 3.5 of the Plan. 
 3. Delivery. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Shares underlying the vested RSUs are
to be delivered on or promptly after each Scheduled Vesting Date (but in no case more than 15 days after such date) (the “Delivery Date”). On the Delivery Date, the Company shall transfer to the Grantee one unrestricted,
fully transferable Share for each vested RSU scheduled to be paid out on such date and as to which all other conditions have been satisfied. The Company may postpone such transfer until it receives satisfactory proof that the transfer of such Shares
will not violate any of the provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the requirements of applicable state law or other laws, rules or regulations relating to authorization,
issuance or sale of securities, or until there has been compliance with the provisions of such acts or rules. The Grantee understands that the Company is under no obligation to register or qualify the Shares with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, any state securities commission or any stock exchange to effect such compliance

 4. Effect of Termination Event. If a Grantee has a Termination Event, all of the
RSUs that have not vested as of the Termination Date shall be cancelled by the Company and forfeited by the Grantee as of the Termination Date, as provided in the Plan. 

6. Change in Control. Upon a Change in Control the terms of Section 3.7 of the Plan shall govern treatment of this Award.

 7. Compensation Clawback Policy/Recoupment. This Award shall be subject to any clawback or recapture policy that the
Company may adopt from time to time to the extent provided in such policy and, in accordance with such policy, may be subject to the requirement that the Award be repaid to the Company after it has been distributed to the Grantee. 

8. Ownership, Voting Rights, Duties. The Grantee will not have any rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to the
Shares subject to this Award until the delivery of such Shares. 
 9. Transferability and Resale Restrictions. The RSUs may
not be sold, exchanged, transferred, assigned, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of or hedged, in any manner (including through the use of any cash-settled instrument), whether voluntarily or involuntarily and whether by operation of law
or otherwise, other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and all such RSUs will be exercisable during the life of the Grantee only by the Grantee or the Grantee’s legal representative. All of the terms and conditions of the
Plan and this Award Agreement will be binding upon any permitted successors and assigns. 
 10. Section 409A. 

(a) RSUs awarded under this Award Agreement are not intended to provide payments that are “nonqualified deferred
compensation” subject to Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”), and unless and to the extent that the Committee specifically determines otherwise as provided below, this Award Agreement and the Plan shall be
interpreted, administered and construed in accordance with this intent, so as to avoid the imposition of taxes and penalties on the Grantee pursuant to Section 409A. The Committee shall have full authority to give effect to the intent of this
Paragraph 10(a). The Company shall have no liability to the Grantee if the Plan or any Award, vesting, exercise or payment of any Award hereunder is subject to the additional tax and penalties under Section 409A. 

(b) Without limiting the generality of Paragraph 10(a), references to the termination of the Grantee’s Employment with
respect to the RSUs shall mean the Grantee’s “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A. 
 (c)

and as determined by the Company) as of the date of the Grantee’s termination of Employment, any payment (whether in Shares or cash equal to the Fair Market Value of the Shares) to be made with respect to the Award upon the Grantee’s
termination of Employment will be accumulated and paid (without interest) on the first business day of the seventh month following the Grantee’s termination of Employment (or earlier death) in accordance with the requirements of
Section 409A.

 (d) To the extent necessary to comply with Paragraph 10(a), any cash, securities or
other property that the Company may deliver in respect of the RSUs will not have the effect of deferring delivery or payment beyond the date on which such delivery or payment would occur with respect to the Shares that would otherwise have been
deliverable. 
 (e) Each delivery of Shares or payment of cash in respect of the RSUs will be treated as a separate payment for
purposes of Section 409A.

not construe the contents of this Award Agreement or the Plan or any other information (whether written or oral) provided to the Grantee as legal, business or tax advice. The Grantee represents and warrants that the Grantee has had the opportunity
