Grant Date:

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

1. Defined Terms. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Plan. In addition, for purposes of this Agreement:

(a) “Comparator Group” means the companies comprising the S&P 400 MidCap Index as of March 31, 2012, which are also publicly traded as of                 , 201    .

(b) “Total Shareholder Return” or “TSR” with respect to a corporation means (i) increase in stock price over a designated period plus reinvested dividends, divided by (ii) stock price at the beginning of the period.

2. Vesting of Units. The Units have been credited to a bookkeeping account on behalf of Grantee. The Units will be earned, vest and become non-forfeitable in whole, in part, or not at all, as provided on Exhibit A attached hereto, on the earliest to occur of the following (in any such case, the “Vesting Date”):

(a)                 , 201    , provided Xxxxxxx is then still employed by the Company or any Affiliate, or

(b) the termination of Xxxxxxx’s employment from the Company or any Affiliate due to death or Disability, or

(c) the occurrence of a Change in Control.

If Xxxxxxx’s employment terminates prior to the Vesting Date for any reason other than Grantee’s death or Disability, Grantee shall forfeit all right, title and interest in and to the Units as of the date of such termination and the Units will be reconveyed to the Company without further consideration or any act or action by Grantee. In addition, any Units that fail to vest in accordance with the terms of this Agreement will be forfeited and reconveyed to the Company without further consideration or any act or action by Grantee.

3. Conversion to Shares. The Units that vest will be converted to actual Shares (one Share per vested Unit) as soon as practicable after                 , 201    , following the Committee’s certification of the Company’s level of achievement of performance goals relating to Total Shareholder Return during fiscal years 201    , 201     and 201    , as set forth on Exhibit A (the “Conversion Date”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence of a Change in Control that meets the definition of a “change in control event” under Section 409A of the Code and applicable regulations thereunder, the conversion of the Units to Shares will occur as of the effective date of such Change in Control. Shares will be registered on the books of the Company in Xxxxxxx’s name as of the Conversion Date and delivered to Grantee as soon as practical thereafter, in certificated or uncertificated form.

4. Dividend Equivalents. No dividend equivalent rights shall attach to the Units granted hereby.

5. Restrictions on Transfer and Pledge. No right or interest of Grantee in the Units may be pledged, encumbered, or hypothecated or be made subject to any lien, obligation, or liability of Grantee to any other party other than the Company or an Affiliate. The Units may not be sold, assigned, transferred or otherwise disposed of by Grantee other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

6. Limitation of Rights. The Units do not confer to Grantee or Xxxxxxx’s Beneficiary, executors or administrators any rights of a stockholder of the Company unless and until Shares are in fact issued to such person in connection with the Units. Nothing in this Agreement shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company or any Affiliate to terminate Xxxxxxx’s employment at any time, nor confer upon Grantee any right to continue in employment of the Company or any Affiliate.

7. Payment of Taxes. The Company or any Affiliate employing Grantee has the authority and the right to deduct or withhold, or require Grantee to remit to the employer, an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state, and local taxes (including Grantee’s FICA obligation) required by law to be withheld with respect to any taxable event arising as a result of the vesting or settlement of the Units. The withholding requirement may be satisfied, in whole or in part, at the election of the Company’s corporate secretary (the “Secretary”), by withholding from the settlement of the Units Shares having a Fair Market Value on the date of withholding equal to the minimum amount (and not any greater amount) required to be withheld for tax purposes, all in accordance with such procedures as the Secretary establishes. The obligations of the Company under this Agreement will be conditional on such payment or arrangements, and the Company, and, where applicable, its Affiliates will, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise due to Grantee.

8. Restrictions on Issuance of Shares. If at any time the Committee shall determine in its discretion, that registration, listing or qualification of the Shares underlying the Units upon any securities exchange or similar self-regulatory organization or under any foreign, federal, or local law or practice, or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body, is necessary or desirable as a condition to the settlement of the Units, the Units will not be converted to Shares in whole or in part unless and until such registration, listing, qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Committee.

9. Amendment. The Committee may amend, modify or terminate this Agreement without approval of Grantee; provided, however, that such amendment, modification or termination shall not, without Grantee’s consent, reduce or diminish the value of this award determined as if it had been fully vested on the date of such amendment or termination.

10. Plan Controls. The terms contained in the Plan shall be and are hereby incorporated into and made a part of this Agreement and this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Plan. Without limiting the foregoing, the terms and conditions of the Units, including the number of shares and the class or series of capital stock which may be delivered upon settlement of the Units, are subject to adjustment as provided in Article 10 of the Plan. In the event of any actual or alleged conflict between the provisions of the Plan and the provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of the Plan shall be controlling and determinative.

11. Severability. If any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement is deemed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the other provisions of this Agreement will be construed and enforced as if the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been included.

12. Notice. Notices and communications hereunder must be in writing and either personally delivered or sent by registered or certified United States mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid. Notices to the Company must be addressed to PSS World Medical, Inc., 0000 Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxxxxxxxxxxx, XX 00000, Attn: Secretary, or any other address designated by the Company in a written notice to Grantee.

EXHIBIT A

Except as set forth below in the case of an early vesting event, the Units will be earned and will become fully vested, in whole or in part, on                 , 201    , based on the Company’s attainment of Total Shareholder Return during fiscal years 201    , 201     and 201    , as follows:

Performance Matrix for Total Shareholder Return

For the Three Fiscal Year Period Beginning                 , 201     and Ending                 , 201    

PSS’ TSR Positioning within the Comparator Group		Percent of Target Award Earned and Vested*
90th percentile or above			250	%
75th percentile			200	%
50th percentile			100	%
25th percentile			50	%
Below 25th percentile			0	%

  * Payouts between performance levels will be determined based on straight line interpolation.

Total Shareholder Return for the Company and for all of the companies in the Comparator Group shall be calculated using the average stock price over the 20 trading days immediately preceding the beginning (                , 201    ) and end (                , 201    ) of the TSR performance period.

Early Vesting Events

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if prior to                 , 201    , Xxxxxxx’s employment is terminated by reason of his or her death or Disability, then the Units will become fully vested and nonforfeitable as of the date of such event, but conversion of the Units to Shares will not occur until the normal Conversion Date, and will be based on actual performance through the full performance period.

In addition, upon the occurrence of a Change in Control of the Company that meets the definition of a “change in control event” under Section 409A of the Code and applicable regulations thereunder, the Units will become fully vested and nonforfeitable, and the conversion of the Units to Shares will occur as of the effective date of such event, based on an assumed attainment of the performance goals at “target” level (i.e., at a level resulting in payout of 100% of the Target Award).
