The Participant acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan. This Agreement and the shares of Restricted Stock granted to Participant are subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, all of which are incorporated herein by reference, except as modified herein. The value of the Restricted Stock granted hereunder and any other awards of Restricted Stock under the Plan made to the Participant in 2010 collectively may not exceed one-third of the Participant’s “annual compensation” (as defined in 31 CFR 30, Section 30.1 Q-1) for 2010, calculated in accordance with 31 CFR 30, Section 30.10 Q-10(e)) (the “Limit”). The Committee, in its sole discretion, may reduce, and the Participant shall forfeit, the number of shares of Restricted Stock granted hereunder to the extent necessary so as not to exceed the Limit.
Section 2. Vesting and Transferability.
(a)

Vesting. If the Participant remains continuously employed by, and has continuously provided substantial services to, the Corporation from the Date of Grant to the date of the applicable event below, the Restricted Stock will become vested (and no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture) as to [2/3 of Granted Shares] of the shares of Restricted Stock granted hereunder on the second anniversary of the Date of Grant and as to an additional [1/3 of Granted Shares] of the shares of Restricted Stock granted hereunder on January 1, 2013; provided that if the Participant ceases to maintain Continuous Service by reason of death or Disability, then the Ratable Portion (as defined in the Plan) of the shares of Restricted Stock granted to the Participant shall vest and not be forfeited and if the Continuous Service of the Participant is involuntarily terminated, for whatever reason, at any time within 18 months after a change in control event (as defined in 26 CFR 1.280G-1, Q&A-27 through Q&A-29 or as defined in 26 CFR 1.409A-3(i)(5)(i)) with respect to the Corporation, all shares of Restricted Stock granted to the Participant shall become fully vested in the Participant, subject to Section 13 hereof. Any shares of the Restricted Stock that have not vested in accordance with the foregoing will be forfeited by the Participant upon any cessation of the Participant’s Continuous Service to the Corporation following the Date of Grant; provided that if the Participant ceases to maintain Continuous Service following the second anniversary of the Date of Grant (assuming the Participant maintains Continuous Service during such two-year period), by reason of Retirement, then the Ratable Portion (as defined in the Plan) of the shares of Restricted Stock granted to the Participant shall vest and not be forfeited.

Transferability. Notwithstanding the satisfaction of the vesting conditions in Section 2(a), the Restricted Stock will not be transferable (as defined in 26 CFR 1.83-3(d)) by the Participant at any time prior to the repayment of the assistance received by the Corporation under the United States Department of the Treasury’s Troubled Asset Relief Program (“TARP”), established pursuant to the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 (“EESA”) (except as necessary to reflect a merger or acquisition of the Corporation), provided that: (A) 25% of the shares of Restricted Stock granted hereunder will no longer be subject to the transferability restrictions in this Section 2(b) upon repayment of 25% of the aggregate obligations of the Corporation under TARP; (B) an additional 25% of the shares of Restricted Stock granted hereunder (for an aggregate total of 50% of the shares of Restricted Stock granted hereunder) will no longer be subject to the transferability restrictions in this Section 2(b) upon repayment of 50% of the aggregate obligations of the Corporation under TARP; (C) an additional 25% of the shares of Restricted Stock granted hereunder (for an aggregate total of 75% of the shares of Restricted Stock granted hereunder) will no longer be subject to the transferability restrictions in this Section 2(b) upon repayment of 75% of the aggregate obligations of the Corporation under TARP; and (D) the remainder of the shares of Restricted Stock granted hereunder will no longer be subject to the transferability restrictions in this Section 2(b) upon repayment of 100% of the aggregate obligations of the Corporation under TARP.

The Participant need not be employed on such distribution date to receive such shares. In no event shall such issuance of such certificates occur later than the later of (A) the end of the short term deferral period identified in Treas. Reg. 1.409A-1(b)(4) and (B) the first date on which the issuance is permissible under the Regulations (as defined in Section 13).

“The transferability of this certificate and the shares of stock represented hereby are subject to the terms and conditions (including forfeiture) contained in the 2010 Stock Option and Incentive Plan of the Corporation, and an Agreement entered into between the registered owner and the Corporation. Copies of such Plan and Agreement are on file in the office of the Secretary of the Corporation.”

Stock dividends and shares issued as a result of any stock-split, if any, issued with respect to the Restricted Shares shall be treated as additional Restricted Shares and shall be subject to the same restrictions and other terms and conditions that apply with respect to, and shall vest or be forfeited at the same time as, the Restricted Shares with respect to which such stock dividends or shares are issued.
Section 6. No Employment Rights.
None of this Agreement, the Plan or the award of shares of Restricted Stock hereunder shall be construed as giving the Participant any right to be retained as an employee or director of the Corporation or any Affiliate.

Each notice and communication shall be deemed to have been given when received by the Corporation or Participant.
Section 11. No Waiver.

Section 12. Section 409A of the Code.
This Agreement, the Grant, and the compensation and benefits hereunder are intended to meet the requirements for exclusion from coverage under Section 409A of the Code and shall be construed and administered accordingly. In addition to the general amendment rights of the Corporation with respect to the Plan and this Agreement, the Corporation specifically retains the unilateral right (but not the obligation) to make, prospectively or retroactively, any amendment to the Plan or this Agreement as it deems necessary or desirable to more fully address issues in connection with exemption from (or compliance with) Section 409A of the Code and other laws. In no event, however, shall this section or any other provisions of the Plan or this Agreement be construed to require the Corporation to provide any gross-up for the tax consequences of any provisions of, or payments under, the Plan and this Agreement and the Corporation and its affiliates shall have no responsibility for tax or legal consequences to any participant (or beneficiary) resulting from the terms or operation of the Plan or this Agreement.
Section 13. EESA and ARRA.
It is the intention and purpose of the Corporation that this Grant of Restricted Stock meet the requirements of “long-term restricted stock” under 31 CFR 30, Section 30.1 Q-1 and the Grant and this Agreement shall be construed and administered accordingly. To the extent that this Agreement and the Restricted Stock granted hereunder are subject to Section 111 of the EESA and the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (“ARRA”) and any regulations, guidance or interpretations that may from time to time be promulgated thereunder (“Regulations”), then any payment of any kind provided for by, or accrued with respect to, this Agreement and the Restricted Stock granted hereunder must comply with EESA, ARRA and the Regulations and this Agreement and the Restricted Stock granted hereunder shall be interpreted or reformed to so comply. The Corporation reserves the right to modify the terms of the Grant and this Agreement as necessary to conform to EESA, ARRA, or the Regulations and, as a condition of the Participant’s receipt of the Grant, the Participant agrees to any modifications the Corporation may deem necessary or appropriate to comply with EESA, ARRA, or the Regulations, and agrees to sign any waivers, acknowledgements or amendments as may be requested by the Corporation to accomplish those goals.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Agreement has been executed by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized as of the date first above written.
