Form of Outside Director Restricted Stock Unit Agreement

 

Stock Units

This grant is an Award of stock units in the number of units set forth on the cover sheet, subject to the vesting conditions described below (“Stock Units”).

Vesting

Other than as set forth below, your Stock Units shall vest according to the schedule set forth on the cover sheet, provided that you remain in Service on the relevant Vesting Dates. If your Service terminates for any reason other than death or Disability, you will forfeit any Stock Units in which you have not yet become vested.

Death

If your Service terminates because of your death, your Stock Units will immediately become 100% vested.

Disability

If your Service terminates because of your Disability, your Stock Units will immediately become 100% vested.

Delivery of Stock Pursuant to Units

Delivery of the shares of Stock represented by your vested Stock Units shall be made, on the basis of one share of Stock per each vested Stock Unit, as soon as practicable upon vesting and in any event not later than March 15th after the end of the calendar year in which they vest.

Withholding Taxes

You agree, as a condition of this grant, that you will make acceptable arrangements to pay any withholding or other taxes that may be due as a result of vesting in Stock Units or your acquisition of Stock under this grant. In the event that the Company determines that any federal, state, local or foreign tax or withholding payment is required relating to this grant, the Company will have the right to: (i) require that you arrange such payments to the Company, (ii) withhold such amounts from other payments due to you from the Company or any Affiliate, or (iii) cause an immediate forfeiture of shares of Stock subject to the Stock Units granted pursuant to this Agreement in an amount equal to the withholding or other taxes due.

Change in Control/Business Combination

Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if a Change in Control occurs after the Grant Date and prior to the last vesting date, your Stock Units will immediately become 100% vested and the shares of Stock subject to them shall be delivered immediately prior to the Change in Control.

 

Notwithstanding the above provision and except as set forth immediately below, in connection with a Business Combination the result of which is that the Company’s shares of Stock are exchanged for or become exchangeable for securities of another entity, cash or a combination of both, if the entity resulting from such Business Combination does not assume these Stock Units and the Company’s obligations under this Agreement or replace these Stock Units with a substantially equivalent security of the entity resulting from such Business Combination, then the Stock Units evidenced by this Agreement will become 100% vested as of the day immediately prior to the date of such Business Combination and be payable in the form of shares of Stock, cash or a combination of both, as determined by the Committee.

Transfer of Stock Units

This Award and your Stock Units may not be transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated, whether by operation of law or otherwise, nor may this Award or the Stock Units be made subject to execution, attachment or similar process.

Retention Rights

This Agreement does not give you the right to be retained or employed by the Company (or any Affiliates) in any capacity.

Shareholder Rights

You do not have any of the rights of a shareholder with respect to the Stock Units unless and until the shares relating to the Stock Units has been delivered to you. You will, however, be entitled to receive, upon the Company’s payment of a cash dividend on outstanding Stock, a cash payment for each Stock Unit that you hold as of the record date for such dividend equal to the per share dividend paid on the Stock.

Adjustments

The Stock Units and the shares of Stock subject to the Stock Units may be adjusted or terminated in any manner contemplated by Section 17 of the Plan.
