The Company hereby grants to the Participant, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement, a target award of Market Share Units (the “Target Award”).

3.    Terms and Conditions.

3.1    Performance Period and Vesting. Subject to Section 3.2 herein, a percentage of the Target Award shall vest, as described below, based on the performance of the Company's stock price over the three year period beginning on the Date of Grant of this award and ending on third anniversary of such Date of Grant (the “Performance Period”), subject to the Participant's continued employment with the Company or any Subsidiary or Parent through the end of the Performance Period.

(i)    Target. The Participant shall be paid the Target Award if the Ending Stock Price equals the Target Price.

Any Market Share Units which vest in accordance with this Section 3.1 shall be paid to the Participant within thirty (30) days following the last day of the Performance Period.

3.4    Committee Discretion. The Committee, in its discretion, may accelerate the vesting of the Target Award up to the maximum amount described in 3.1(iii) above, at any time, subject to the terms of the Plan and this Agreement. If so accelerated, the Market Share Units will be considered as having vested as of the date specified by the Committee or an applicable written agreement but the Committee will have no right to accelerate any payment under this Agreement if such acceleration would cause this Agreement to fail to comply with Section 409A.

3.5    No Rights as a Stockholder. Participant will have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares of Stock subject to Market Share Units until the Market Share Units have vested and shares of Stock relating thereto have been issued and recorded on the records of the Company or its transfer agent or registrars.

The Market Share Units granted under this Agreement may be transferred solely to a trust in which the Participant or the Participant's spouse control the management of the assets. With respect to Market Share Units, if any, that have been transferred to a trust, references in this Agreement to vesting related to such Market Share Units shall be deemed to include such trust. Any transfer of Market Share Units shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement and the transferee shall be subject to the same terms and conditions as if it were the Participant. No interest of the Participant under this Agreement shall be subject to attachment, execution, garnishment, sequestration, the laws of bankruptcy or any other legal or equitable process.

3.7    Adjustments. If there is any change in the Stock by reason of any stock dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split- up, combination or exchange of shares of Stock, or any similar change affecting the Stock the Committee will make appropriate and proportionate adjustments (including relating to the Stock, other securities, cash or other consideration which may be acquired upon vesting of the Market Share Units) that it deems necessary to the number and class of securities subject to the Market Share Units and any other terms of this Agreement. Any adjustment so made shall be final and binding upon the Participant.

3.8    No Right to Continued Performance of Services. The grant of the Market Share Units does not confer upon the Participant any right to continue to be employed by the Company or any of its neither affiliates (including, without limitation, any Parent or Subsidiary) nor may it interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any of its affiliates (including, without limitation, any Parent or Subsidiary) for which the Participant performs services to terminate the Participant's employment at any time.

3.9    Compliance With Law and Regulations. The grant and vesting of Market Share Units and the obligation of the Company to issue shares of Stock under this Agreement are subject to all applicable federal and state laws, rules and regulations, including those related to disclosure of financial and other information to the Participant and to approvals by any government or regulatory agency as may be required. The Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificates for shares of Stock prior to (A) the listing of such shares on any stock exchange on which the Stock may then be listed and (B) the completion of any registration or qualification of such shares under any federal or state law, or any rule or regulation of any government body which the Company shall, in its sole discretion, determine to be necessary or advisable.

If assumed by the successor the substituted time based awards will vest upon the earlier of the end of the original award performance period or upon termination as set forth in Section 3.2.

4.    Investment Representation. The Participant must, within five (5) days of demand by the Company furnish the Company an agreement satisfactory to the Company in which the Participant represents that the shares of Stock acquired upon vesting are being acquired for investment. The Company will have the right, at its election, to place legends on the certificates representing the shares of Stock so being issued with respect to limitations on transferability imposed by federal and/or state laws, and the Company will have the right to issue “stop transfer” instructions to its transfer agent.

8.    Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Plan constitute the entire agreement between the parties hereto with regard to the subject matter hereof and shall supersede any other agreements, representations or understandings (whether oral or written and whether express or implied, and including, without limitation, any employment agreement between the Participant and the Company or any of its affiliates (including, without limitation, any Parent or Subsidiary) whether previously entered into, currently effective or entered into in the future that includes terms and conditions regarding equity awards) which relate to the subject matter hereof.

11.    Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the Company and its successors and assigns and upon the Participant, the Participant's assigns and the legal representatives, heirs and legatees of the Participant's estate, whether or not any such person shall have become a party to this Agreement and agreed in writing to be joined herein and be bound by the terms hereof.

12.    Governing Law. The parties hereto agree that the validity, construction and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the state of Texas.

13.    Amendment.

17.    Tax Treatment; Section 409A. The Participant shall be responsible for all taxes with respect to the Market Share Units. Notwithstanding the forgoing or any provision of the Plan or this Agreement:

17.1    The parties agree that this Agreement shall be interpreted to comply with or be exempt from Section 409A, and all provisions of this Agreement shall be construed in a manner consistent with the requirements for avoiding taxes or penalties under Section 409A. If any provision of this Agreement or the Plan contravenes Section 409A or could cause the Participant to incur any tax, interest or penalties under Section 409A, the Committee may, in its sole discretion and without the Participant's consent, modify such provision in order to comply with the requirements of Section 409A or to satisfy the conditions of any exception there from, or otherwise to avoid the imposition of the additional income tax and interest under Section 409A, while maintaining, to the maximum extent practicable, the original intent and economic benefit to the Participant, without materially increasing the cost to the Company, of the applicable provision. However, the Company makes no guarantee regarding the tax treatment of the Market Share Units and none of the Company, its Parent, Subsidiaries or affiliates, or any of their employees or representatives shall have any liability to the Participant with respect thereto.

17.2    A termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the payment of any amounts or benefits considered “nonqualified deferred compensation” under Section 409A upon or following a termination of employment unless such termination is also a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A and, for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement, references to a “termination,” “termination of employment"”or like terms shall mean “separation from service.” If the Participant is deemed on the date of termination to be a “specified employee” within the meaning of that term under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B), then with regard to any payment or the provision of any benefit that is considered nonqualified deferred compensation under Section 409A payable on account of a “separation from service,” such payment or benefit shall be made or provided at the date which is the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six (6)- month period measured from the date of such "separation from service" of the Participant, and (ii) the date of the Participant's death (the “Delay Period”). Upon the expiration of the Delay Period, all payments and benefits delayed pursuant to this Section 17.2 (whether they would have otherwise been payable in a single sum or in installments in the absence of such delay) shall be paid or reimbursed on the first business day following the





expiration of the Delay Period to the Participant in a lump sum, and any remaining payments and benefits due under this Agreement shall be paid or provided in accordance with the normal payment dates specified for them herein.

17.3    For purposes of Section 409A, the Participant's right to receive any installment payments pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments. Whenever a payment under this Agreement specifies a payment period with reference to a number of days (e.g., “payment shall be made within thirty (30) days following the date of termination”), the actual date of payment within the specified period shall be within the sole discretion of the Company.
