This grant of RSUs shall not confer any right to the Participant (or any other Participant) to be granted in the future RSUs or other Awards under the Plan.

6. Termination of Service by Death or Disability. In the event the Service of the Participant is terminated by reason of death or Disability (as defined below), all RSUs held by the Participant at the date of termination and still subject to the Vesting Period shall immediately become fully vested as of the date of termination and shall be paid as soon as administratively feasible in accordance with Section 3 herein.  For purposes hereof, “Disability” shall mean that the Participant  is considered “disabled” within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(C) of the Code and the regulations thereunder.

7. Termination of Service for Other Reasons. If the Service of the Participant with the Company or its Subsidiaries shall terminate for any reason other than the reasons set forth in Section 6, all RSUs held by the Participant at the date of termination and still subject to the Vesting Period shall be forfeited. All vested RSUs held by the Participant at the date of termination shall be paid as soon as administratively feasible in accordance with Section 3 herein to the extent not previously paid.

8. Change in Control. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in the event of a Change in Control of the Company during the Vesting Period and prior to the Participant’s termination of Service with the Company or its Subsidiaries, the Vesting Period imposed on the RSUs shall immediately lapse, with all such RSUs vesting subject to applicable federal and state securities laws. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, payout of all vested RSUs shall occur on the effective date of the Change in Control in accordance with Section 13.1 of the Plan.

9. Restrictions on Transfer. RSUs granted pursuant to this Agreement may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated (a “Transfer”), other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, except as provided in the Plan. If any Transfer, whether voluntary or involuntary, of RSUs is made, or if any attachment, execution, garnishment, or lien shall be issued against or placed upon the RSUs, the Participant’s right to such RSUs shall be immediately forfeited by the Participant to the Company, and this Agreement shall lapse.

10. Adjustments. The RSUs granted hereunder shall be subject to the provisions of Section 4.3 of the Plan relating to adjustments for recapitalizations, reclassifications and other changes in the Company’s corporate structure.

11. Beneficiary Designation. The Participant may, from time to time, name any beneficiary or beneficiaries (who may be named contingently or successively) to whom any benefit under this Agreement is to be paid in case of his death before he receives any or all of such benefit. Each such designation shall revoke all prior designations by the Participant, shall be in a form prescribed by the Company, and will be effective only when filed by the Participant in writing with the Director of Human Resources of the Company during the Participant’s lifetime. In the absence of any such designation, benefits remaining unpaid at the Participant’s death shall be paid to the Participant’s estate.

12. Continuation of Service. This Agreement shall not confer upon the Participant any right to continue Service with the Company or its Subsidiaries, nor shall this Agreement interfere in any way with the Company’s or Subsidiaries’ right to terminate the Participant’s Service. The Participant’s Service shall continue to be on an “at-will” basis.

13. Rights as a Stockholder. The Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder of the Company with respect to the shares subject to this Agreement until such time as the shares have been issued and delivered to him.

14. Tax Withholding.  The Company’s obligation to payout RSUs under this Agreement is subject to withholding of all federal, state and local taxes (including the Participant’s FICA obligation), domestic or foreign. The Company shall have the power and the right to deduct or withhold (including, without limitation, by reduction of the number of shares of Common Stock subject to the RSUs), or require the Participant to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy such taxes required by law to be withheld with respect to any payout to the Participant under this Agreement.  The Participant may elect, subject to any procedural rules adopted by the Committee, to satisfy the withholding requirement, in whole or in part, by having the Company withhold shares of Common Stock having an aggregate Fair Market Value on the date the tax is to be determined, equal to the amount required to be withheld.

15. Miscellaneous.

(e)                                                   To the extent any provision of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable or invalid for any reason, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not be affected by such holding and shall continue in full force in accordance with their terms.

(f)                                                    To the extent not preempted by federal law, this Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to the conflicts of laws principles thereof.
