WHEREAS, it has been determined under the Plan that it would be in the best interests of the Company to grant the Restricted Shares  provided herein to the Participant; and

WHEREAS, the Executive and the Company are party to an Employment Agreement dated August 12, 2010 (the “Employment Agreement”).

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and promises hereinafter set forth and for other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereto hereby mutually covenant and agree as follows:

1.             Incorporation By Reference; Plan Document Receipt.  This Agreement is subject in all respects to the terms and provisions of the Plan (including, without limitation, any amendments thereto adopted at any time and from time to time unless such amendments are expressly intended not to apply to the Award provided hereunder), all of which terms and provisions are made a part of and incorporated in this Agreement as if they were each expressly set forth herein.  Any capitalized term not defined in this Agreement shall have the same meaning as is ascribed thereto in the Plan.  The Participant hereby acknowledges receipt of a true copy of the Plan and that the Participant has read the Plan carefully and fully understands its content.  In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of the Plan, the terms of the Plan shall control.

2.             Grant of Restricted Shares.  The Company hereby grants to the Participant, as of the Grant Date specified above, the number of Restricted Shares specified above.  Except as otherwise provided by the Plan, the Participant agrees and understands that nothing contained in this Agreement provides, or is intended to provide, the Participant with any protection against potential future dilution of the Participant’s interest in the Company for any

reason, and no adjustments shall be made for dividends in cash or other property, distributions or other rights in respect of any such Shares.

3.             Vesting.

(a)           Subject to Section 4 of the Employment Agreement, the Restricted Shares shall become unrestricted and vested as follows, provided that the Participant has not incurred a termination of employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries (a “Termination”) prior to each such vesting date:

There shall be no proportionate or partial vesting in the periods prior to each vesting date and all vesting shall occur only on the appropriate vesting date, subject to the Participant’s continued service with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries on each applicable vesting date.

(b)           Committee Discretion to Accelerate Vesting.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, provide for accelerated vesting of the Restricted Shares any time and for any reason.

(c)           Forfeiture.  All unvested Restricted Shares (determined after giving effect to any accelerated vesting of the Restricted Shares) shall be immediately forfeited upon the Participant’s Termination for any reason.

(d)           Employment Agreement.  For the sake of clarity, Section 4 of the Employment Agreement shall apply to determine any accelerated vesting of this Award.

4.             Period of Restriction; Delivery of Unrestricted Shares.   During the period the Restricted Shares are unvested, the Company shall hold the certificates representing the Restricted Shares and may appropriately legend such certificates.  When Restricted Shares awarded by this Agreement become vested, the Company shall deliver to the Participant one unrestricted Share for each vested Restricted Share and if the Participant’s Share certificates contain legends restricting the transfer of such Shares, the Participant shall be entitled to receive new Share certificates free of such legends (except any legends requiring compliance with securities laws).

5.             Dividends and Other Distributions; Voting.  The Participant shall be entitled to receive all dividends and other distributions paid with respect to the Restricted Shares, provided that any such dividends or other distributions will be subject to the same vesting requirements as the underlying Restricted Shares and shall be paid at the time the Restricted

2

Shares becomes vested pursuant to Section 3 hereof.  If any dividends or distributions are paid in Shares, the Shares shall be deposited with the Company and shall be subject to the same restrictions on transferability and forfeitability as the Restricted Shares with respect to which they were paid.  The Participant may exercise full voting rights with respect to the Restricted Shares granted hereunder.

6.             Non-Transferability.  No portion of the Restricted Shares may be sold, assigned, transferred, encumbered, hypothecated or pledged by the Participant, other than to the Company as a result of forfeiture of the Restricted Shares as provided herein, unless and until the Restricted Shares vest in accordance with the provisions hereof and the Participant has become the holder of record of such vested Shares.

7.             Governing Law.  All questions concerning the construction, validity and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the choice of law principles thereof.

8.             Withholding of Tax.  As a condition to receiving vested Shares hereunder, the Participant must remit to the Company an amount sufficient to satisfy any federal, state, local and foreign taxes of any kind (including, but not limited to, the Participant’s FICA and SDI obligations) which the Company, in its sole discretion, deems necessary to be withheld or remitted to comply with the Code and/or any other applicable law, rule or regulation with respect to the vested Shares and, if the Participant fails to do so, the Company may refuse to issue or transfer any Shares otherwise required to be issued pursuant to this Agreement.

9.             Section 83(b).  If the Participant properly elects (as required by Section 83(b) of the Code) within 30 days after the issuance of the Restricted Shares to include in gross income for federal income tax purposes in the year of issuance the Fair Market Value of such Restricted Shares, the Participant shall pay to the Company or make arrangements satisfactory to the Company to pay to the Company upon such election, any federal, state or local taxes required to be withheld with respect to the Restricted Shares.  If the Participant shall fail to make such payment, the Company shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct from any payment of any kind otherwise due to the Participant any federal, state or local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to the Restricted Shares, as well as the rights set forth in Section 8 hereof.  The Participant acknowledges that it is the Participant’s sole responsibility, and not the Company’s, to file timely and properly the election under Section 83(b) of the Code and any corresponding provisions of state tax laws if the Participant elects to make such election, and the Participant agrees to timely provide the Company with a copy of any such election.

10.           Legend.  The Company may at any time place legends referencing any applicable federal, state or foreign securities law restrictions on all certificates representing Restricted Shares issued pursuant to this Agreement.  The Participant shall, at the request of the Company, promptly present to the Company any and all certificates representing Restricted Shares acquired pursuant to this Agreement in the possession of the Participant in order to carry out the provisions of this Section 10.
