8. Delivery of Restricted Stock.

8.1 Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.2 hereof, evidence of book entry Shares with respect to shares of Restricted Stock in respect of which the restrictions have lapsed pursuant to Section 6.2, 6.3 or 7 hereof or, if requested by the Grantee prior to such lapse of restrictions, a stock certificate with respect to such shares of Restricted Stock, shall be delivered to the Grantee as soon as practicable following the date on which the restrictions on such Restricted Stock have lapsed, free of all restrictions hereunder.

The Performance Shares granted to the Grantee pursuant to the Award shall be subject to the Grantee’s execution and return of this Agreement to the Company or its designee (including by electronic means, if so provided) no later than             , 20     (the “Grantee Return Date”); provided that if the Grantee dies before the Grantee Return Date, this requirement shall be deemed to be satisfied if the executor or administrator of the Grantee’s estate executes and returns this Agreement to the Company or its designee no later than ninety (90) days following the Grantee’s death (the “Executor Return Date”). If this Agreement is not so executed and returned on or prior to the Grantee Return Date or the Executor Return Date, as applicable, the Performance Shares evidenced by this Agreement shall be forfeited, and neither the Grantee nor the Grantee’s heirs, executors, administrators and successors shall have any rights with respect thereto.

12. Adjustments.

To the extent permitted under Section 162(m) of the Code and the regulations thereunder without adversely affecting the treatment of the Award as Performance-Based Compensation, the Committee shall adjust the Performance Objective to reflect the impact of specified corporate transactions (such as a stock split or dividend), special charges, accounting or tax law changes and other extraordinary or nonrecurring events.

13. Withholding of Taxes.

Prior to the delivery to the Grantee (or the Grantee’s estate, if applicable) of a stock certificate or evidence of book entry Shares with respect to shares of Restricted Stock in respect of which all restrictions have lapsed, the Grantee (or the Grantee’s estate) shall pay to the Company the federal, state and local income taxes and other amounts as may be required by law to be withheld by the Company (the “Withholding Taxes”) with respect to such Restricted Stock. By executing and returning this Agreement in the manner provided in Section 10 hereof, the Grantee (or the Grantee’s estate) shall be deemed to elect to have the Company withhold a portion of such Restricted Stock having an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the Withholding Taxes in satisfaction of the Withholding Taxes, such election to continue in effect until the Grantee (or the Grantee’s estate) notifies the Company before such delivery that the Grantee (or the Grantee’s estate) shall satisfy such obligation in cash, in which event the Company shall not withhold a portion of such Restricted Stock as otherwise provided in this Section 13.

14. Grantee Bound by the Plan.

The Grantee hereby acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and agrees to be bound by all the terms and provisions thereof.

15. Modification of Agreement.

16. Severability.

Should any provision of this Agreement be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable or invalid for any reason, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not be affected by such holding and shall continue in full force in accordance with their terms.

17. Governing Law.

The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Ohio without giving effect to the conflicts of laws principles thereof.

18. Successors in Interest.

This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon any successor to the Company. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the Grantee’s legal representatives. All obligations imposed upon the Grantee and all rights granted to the Company under this Agreement shall be binding upon the Grantee’s heirs, executors, administrators and successors.
