Section 1.          Award. In accordance with the Incentive Plan, the Company hereby grants to the Participant this Award, which represents the right to receive Common Stock (the “Covered Shares”) as set forth in Section 2. This Award is in all respects limited and conditioned as provided herein.

 

Section 2.          Terms of Restricted Stock AwardThe following words and phrases relating to the grant of this Award shall have the following meanings:

(b)          The “Date of Grant” is _____________________.

 

(c)          The number of “Covered Shares” is ________shares of Common Stock.

 

Except for terms otherwise defined in this Award Agreement, any capitalized term in this Award Agreement shall have the meaning ascribed to that term under the Incentive Plan.

 

Section 3.          Restricted Period. This Award Agreement evidences the Company’s grant to the Participant as of the Date of Grant, on the terms and conditions described in this Award Agreement and in the Incentive Plan, of the right of the Participant to receive shares of Common Stock free of restrictions once the Restricted Period ends.

 

(a)          Subject to the limitations of this Award Agreement, the “Restricted Period” for each installment of such Covered Shares (“Installment”) shall begin on the Date of Grant and end as described in the following schedule (but only if the Participant has not had a Termination of Service before the end of the Restricted Period):

 

 
 

 

INSTALLMENT RESTRICTED PERIOD WILL END ON:
   
   

 

(b)          Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3, the Restricted Period for all the Covered Shares shall cease immediately, and such Covered Shares shall become immediately and fully vested, upon (i) a Change in Control that occurs on or before the Participant’s Termination of Service or (ii) upon the Participant’s Termination of Service due to Disability or death.

 

(c)          In the event the Participant’s Termination of Service, other than as provided in Section 3(b) above, occurs prior to the expiration of one or more Restricted Periods, the Participant shall forfeit all rights, title and interest in and to any Installment(s) of Covered Shares still subject to a Restricted Period as of the Participant’s Termination of Service date.

 

Section 4.          Delivery of Shares. Delivery of Common Stock under this Award Agreement and the Incentive Plan shall be subject to the following:

 

(a)          Compliance with Applicable Laws.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Award Agreement or the Incentive Plan, the Company shall have no obligation to deliver any Common Stock or make any other distribution of benefits under this Award Agreement or the Incentive Plan unless such delivery or distribution complies with all applicable laws (including, the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended), and the applicable requirements of any securities exchange or similar entity.

 

(b)          Certificates.  To the extent that this Award Agreement and the Incentive Plan provide for the issuance of Common Stock, the issuance may be effected on a non-certificated basis, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law or the applicable requirements of any securities exchange or similar entity.

As permitted by the Committee from time to time, such withholding obligations may be satisfied at the election of the Participant (a) through cash payment by the Participant, (b) through the surrender of shares of Common Stock that the Participant already owns or (c) through the surrender of shares of Common Stock to which the Participant is otherwise entitled under the Incentive Plan; provided, however, that except as otherwise specifically provided by the Committee, such shares under clause (c) may not be used to satisfy more than the Company’s minimum statutory withholding obligation.
