Grant of Stock Units Pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in this Stock Award Agreement (including Section 1 above) and the Plan, the Administrator hereby grants to the Awardee named in Section 1, on the Grant Date set forth in Section 1, the number of Stock Units set forth in Section 1.
Stock Rights In the event of a Change in Control, all restricted Company stock and all options, stock appreciation rights, and/or other stock rights held by Executive with respect to Company stock that are exempt from Section 409A (“Stock Rights”) which are not fully vested (and exercisable, if applicable) shall become fully vested and exercisable as of a time established by the Board, which shall be no later than a time preceding the Change in Control which allows Executive to exercise the Stock Rights and cause the stock acquired thereby to participate in the Change in Control transaction. If the Change in Control transaction is structured so that stock participating therein at one time is or may be treated differently from stock participating therein at a different time (e.g., a tender offer followed by a squeeze-out merger), the Board shall interpret this Subsection (d) to provide for the required vesting acceleration in a manner designed to allow Executive to exercise the Stock Rights and cause the stock acquired thereby to participate in the earliest portion of the Change in Control transaction. If the consummation of a Change in Control transaction is uncertain (e.g., a tender offer in which the tender of a minimum number of shares is a condition to closing, or a voted merger or proxy contest in which a minimum number of votes is a condition to closing), the Board shall apply this Subsection (d) by using its best efforts to determine if and when the Change in Control transaction is likely to close, and proceeding accordingly. To the extent necessary to implement this Subsection d), each agreement reflecting a Stock Right, and each plan, if any, pursuant to which a Stock Right is issued, if any, shall be deemed amended.
Restricted Stock Units Subject to the terms and conditions provided in this Agreement and the Plan, the Company hereby grants to the Grantee restricted stock units (the “Restricted Stock Units”) as of the Grant Date. Each Restricted Stock Unit represents the right to receive a Share of Common Stock if the Restricted Stock Unit becomes vested and non-forfeitable in accordance with Section 2 or Section 3 of this Agreement. The Grantee shall have no rights as a stockholder of the Company, no dividend rights and no voting rights with respect to the Restricted Stock Units or the Shares underlying the Restricted Stock Units unless and until the Restricted Stock Units become vested and non-forfeitable and such Shares are delivered to the Grantee in accordance with Section 4 of this Agreement. The Grantee is required to pay no cash consideration for the grant of the Restricted Stock Units. The Grantee acknowledges and agrees that (i) the Restricted Stock Units and related rights are nontransferable as provided in Section 5 of this Agreement, (ii) the Restricted Stock Units are subject to forfeiture in the event the Grantee’s Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant or Non-Employee Director terminates in certain circumstances, as specified in Section 6 of this Agreement, (iii) sales of Shares of Common Stock delivered in settlement of the Restricted Stock Units will be subject to the Company’s policies regulating trading by Employees and Consultants, including any applicable “blackout” or other designated periods in which sales of Shares are not permitted, (iv) Shares delivered in settlement will be subject to any recoupment or “clawback” policy of the Company, regardless of whether such recoupment or “clawback” policy is applied with prospective or retroactive effect, and (v) any entitlement to dividend equivalents will be in accordance with Section 7 of this Agreement. The extent to which the Grantee’s rights and interest in the Restricted Stock Units becomes vested and non-forfeitable shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of Sections 2 and 3 of this Agreement.
Restricted Stock Awards (i) The restricted shares of common stock of the Company awarded under this paragraph (c) (collectively, the “Restricted Shares”) shall be awarded pursuant to and, to the extent not expressly inconsistent herewith, governed by the Company stock option and incentive compensation plan as in effect as the effective date of the respective award (the “Stock Plan”). All grants described in this paragraph (c) shall be conditioned upon the approval of the shareholders of the Company at the annual shareholders’ meeting in 2008 of (A) an increase in the maximum number of shares that may be issued pursuant to awards under the Stock Plan, or (B) a new or amended plan authorizing grants of restricted shares of the Company. The number of Restricted Shares shall be adjusted in accordance with the terms of the Stock Plan for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and the like. Until and only to the extent the Restricted Shares shall vest as provided herein, all stock certificates evidencing the Restricted Shares owned by Employee shall be held by the Company for the benefit of Employee. As and to the extent any Restricted Shares shall vest as provided herein, the Company will promptly deliver certificates representing such vested shares to Employee.
(ii) Provided Employee shall continue to be employed hereunder, effective on July 15, 2008, the Company shall award to Employee 5,000 restricted shares of common stock of the Company. The restricted shares awarded as provided in the preceding sentence shall be referred to as the “Fixed Restricted Shares.” The Fixed Restricted Shares shall be subject to vesting as provided below.

For each year, the “Performance Award Date” shall be that date the Company files its Annual Report on Form 10-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the immediately preceding calendar year. Satisfaction of the “Annual Performance Award Test” shall be determined as of each Performance Award Date and measured based upon the Company Net Income for the immediately preceding calendar year. The Annual Performance Award Test shall be satisfied for a calendar year if (A) the Annual Net Income Target for the calendar year being measured is at least ten percent (10%) higher than the actual Company Net Income for the immediately preceding calendar year, and (B) the actual Company Net Income for the calendar year being measured equals or exceeds ninety-five percent (95%) of the Annual Net Income Target for the calendar year being measured. The “Performance Award Price” shall be equal to the closing sale price of Company common stock as reported on the Nasdaq National Market on the respective Performance Award Date (or if the respective Performance Award Date is not a trading date for the Company common stock, on the immediately preceding trading date). Any Restricted Shares awarded pursuant to this subparagraph (iii) shall be immediately vested in full on the respective date such shares are awarded.
(iv) Notwithstanding any provision in this paragraph (c) to the contrary, all of the Restricted Shares that have not been previously vested shall immediately vest if Employee shall continue to be employed hereunder and (A) Employee shall die, (B) Employee shall be subject to a “permanent disability” as described in Section 4(b) hereof, or (C) a Change of Control (as defined below) has occurred with respect to the Company.

The Stock Units shall not be treated as property or as a trust fund of any kind.
