RESTRICTED
STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT -- INCORPORATED TERMS AND CONDITIONS
1. Award
Under Plan.
This
award of restricted stock units is made pursuant to and is governed by the
Company’s 2002 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the “Plan”)
and,
unless the context otherwise requires, terms used herein shall have the same
meaning as in the Plan. The Award is also made pursuant to and is subject to
the
terms and conditions of the Company’s Amended and Restated Management Bonus Plan
as of December 9, 2005 (the “Management Bonus Plan”).
2. Vesting
of Restricted Stock Units.
All
restricted stock units granted under this Agreement are subject to a substantial
risk of forfeiture until such restricted stock units have vested in the Employee
in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If the Employee has continuously
maintained a Business Relationship (as defined below) with the Company through
the date(s) listed on the vesting schedule set forth on the cover page hereof,
the portion of the awarded restricted stock units listed on the vesting schedule
shall vest in the Employee, shall no longer be subject to forfeiture, and shall
automatically be converted into Shares of Common Stock of the Company equal
in
number to the number of restricted stock units vesting; provided that the
Employee, as a condition to any vesting of restricted stock units, must pay
to
the Company in cash, contemporaneously with the vesting of any restricted stock
units, the par value of the Shares of Common Stock into which such vested
restricted stock units are to be converted. The Employee agrees that the Company
may, in the absence of receipt of cash from the Employee equal to the amount
of
the par value of the Shares to be issued upon vesting of restricted stock units,
withhold from the Employee’s wages or other remuneration the par value amount.
“Business
Relationship”
means
service to the Company or its successor in the capacity of an employee, officer,
director or consultant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board may, in its
discretion, accelerate the date that any installment of this award vests.
3. Retention
Obligation; Restrictions after Vesting.
If the
Employee is an executive officer of the Company at the time of vesting of any
portion of the restricted stock unit award, the Employee is obligated to retain
in his/her ownership a minimum of fifty (50%) percent of the Shares of Common
Stock of the Company acquired through the vesting of the restricted stock units
to the extent that the Employee does not then hold by himself/herself or through
members of his/her immediate family a minimum of 50,000 shares of Common Stock
of the Company or shares of Common Stock of the Company with a value of $50,000,
whichever is the lower standard; provided, however, that there shall be excluded
from the retention obligation any Shares the Employee sells to pay withholding
taxes due in connection with the deferred cash pay-out to the Employee under
the
Management Bonus Plan and on account of the vesting of the restricted stock
units. Certificates representing the Shares which are subject to this retention
obligation shall be held by the Company until the Shares are no longer subject
to the retention obligation.
4. Termination
of Business Relationship.
(a) Termination.
If the
Employee’s Business Relationship with the Company ceases, voluntarily or
involuntarily, with or without cause, no further installments of this award
shall vest, and the Employee shall forfeit all restricted stock units (and
any
right to acquire any Shares upon vesting of such restricted stock units) not
vested at the date of such termination of the Employee’s Business Relationship
with the Company. Any determination under this Agreement as to the status of
a
Business Relationship or other matters referred to above shall be made in good
faith by the Board of Directors of the Company.
(b) Employment
Status.
For
purposes hereof, with respect to employees of the Company, employment shall
not
be considered as having terminated during any leave
of
absence if such leave of absence has been approved in writing by the Company
and
if such written approval contractually obligates the Company to continue the
employment of the Employee after the approved period of absence; in the event
of
such an approved leave of absence, vesting of this restricted stock unit award
shall be suspended (and the period of the leave of absence shall be added to
all
vesting dates) unless otherwise provided in the Company’s written approval of
the leave of absence. For purposes hereof, a termination of employment followed
by another Business Relationship shall be deemed a termination of the Business
Relationship with all vesting to cease unless the Company enters into a written
agreement related to such other Business Relationship in which it is
specifically stated that there is no termination of the Business Relationship
under this Agreement. This award shall not be affected by any change of
employment within or among the Company and its Subsidiaries so long as the
Employee continuously remains an employee of the Company or any
Subsidiary.
5. Death;
Disability.
(a) Death
or Disability.
If the
Employee ceases to maintain a Business Relationship with the Company by reason
of his/her disability or death, the restricted stock units covered by this
Agreement shall fully vest in the Employee (or in his/her estate in the event
of
his/her death) and such restricted stock units shall be converted into Shares
and certificates for such Shares delivered to the Employee (or his/her executor
or administrator). For purposes hereof, “disability”
means
“permanent
and total disability”
as
defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.
(b) Retirement
with Consent of the Company.
If the
Employee retires from his/her Business Relationship with the Company with the
consent of the Company after the Employee has reached age 62, the restricted
stock units covered by this Agreement shall fully vest in the Employee and
such
restricted stock units shall be converted into Shares and certificates for
such
Shares delivered to the Employee.
(c) Change
of Control. In
the
event of an Acquisition (as defined herein) prior to the full vesting of this
award, the vesting of the award shall be accelerated and the restricted stock
units covered by this Agreement shall fully vest in the Employee, and
- 2
-
such
restricted stock units shall be converted into Shares, at the moment immediately
preceding the consummation of the Acquisition. For purposes of this Plan, an
“Acquisition”
shall
mean: (x) the sale of the Company by merger in which the shareholders of the
Company in their capacity as such no longer own a majority of the outstanding
equity securities of the Company (or its successor); or (y) any sale of all
or
substantially all of the assets or capital stock of the Company (other than
in a
spin-off or similar transaction) or (z) any other acquisition of the business
of
the Company, as determined by the Board.
6.
Securities
Laws Restrictions on Resale.
Until
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any successor
statute (the “Securities
Act”),
any
Shares into which the restricted stock units are converted upon vesting will
be
illiquid and will be deemed to be “restricted securities” for purposes of the
Securities Act. Accordingly, such Shares must be sold in compliance with the
registration requirements of the Securities Act or an exemption therefrom and
may need to be held indefinitely. Unless the Shares have been registered under
the Securities Act, each certificate evidencing any of the Shares shall bear
a
restrictive legend specified by the Company.
7.
Ownership
Rights.
The
Employee shall not have voting or any other rights as a shareholder of the
Company with respect to the restricted stock units. Upon conversion of the
restricted stock units into Shares, the Employee will obtain full voting and
other rights as a shareholder of the Company. Each dividend payment will be
made
no later than the end of the calendar year in which the dividends are paid
to
shareholders of that class of stock or, if later, the 15th
day of
the third month following the date of the dividends are paid to shareholders
of
that class of stock.
8.
Award
Not Transferable.
This
award is not transferable or assignable except by will or by the laws of descent
and distribution.
9.
No
Obligation to Continue Business Relationship.
Neither
the Plan, this Agreement, nor the restricted stock unit award imposes any
obligation on the Company to continue the Employee in employment or other
Business Relationship.
10. No
Severance or Termination Rights.
Awards
do not form part of an Employee’s contract of employment and do not entitle an
Employee to any benefit other than that granted under this Agreement. Any
benefits granted under this Agreement are not part of an Employee’s ordinary
salary, and shall not be considered as part of such salary for pension purposes
or in the event of severance, redundancy or resignation. If Employee’s
employment is terminated for whatever reason the Employee agrees that he/she
shall not be entitled by way of damages for breach of contract, dismissal or
compensation for loss of office or otherwise to any sum, shares or other
benefits to compensate for the loss or diminution in value of any actual or
prospective right, benefits or expectation under or in relation to this
Agreement.
11. Adjustments.
This
award is subject to adjustment, as is expressly provided in the Plan, with
respect to certain changes in the capitalization of the Company.

12. Withholding
Taxes.
If the
Company in its discretion determines that it is obligated to withhold any tax
in
connection with the vesting of any of the restricted stock units or the issuance
of Shares upon vesting of any such restricted stock units, the Employee hereby
agrees that the Company may withhold from the Employee’s wages or other
remuneration the appropriate amount of tax. At the discretion of the Company,
the amount required to be withheld may be withheld in cash from such wages
or
other remuneration or in kind from the Shares to be issued upon vesting or
from
other property otherwise deliverable to the Employee. The Employee further
agrees that, if the Company does not withhold an amount from the Employee’s
wages or other remuneration sufficient to satisfy the withholding obligation
of
the Company, the Employee will make reimbursement on demand, in cash, for the
amount underwithheld. The Employee further agrees to indemnify the Company
for
the Employee’s portion of any social insurance obligations or taxes arising
under any foreign law with respect to the grant of this restricted stock unit
award, the vesting of any restricted stock unit, the issuance of any Shares
upon
such vesting or the sale or other disposition of the Shares.
13. Provision

By
signing this Agreement the Employee acknowledges receipt of a copy of this
Agreement and a copy of the Plan.
14. Transfer
of Data Waiver.
By
signing this Agreement the Employee acknowledges that in order to perform its
requirements under this Award, the Company may process personal data and/or
sensitive personal data about the Employee. Such data includes, but is not
limited to, the information provided in this award package and any changes
thereto, other appropriate personal and financial data about the Employee,
and
information about the Employee’s participation in the Plan and shares acquired
under the Plan from time to time. The Employee hereby gives explicit consent
to
the Company to process any such personal data and/or sensitive personal data.
The Employee also gives explicit consent to the Company to transfer any such
personal data and/or sensitive personal data outside the country in which the
Employee works and to the United States. The legal persons for whom the personal
data is intended include the Company and any of its subsidiaries, the outside
plan administrator as selected by the Company from time to time, and any other
person that the Company may find in its administration of the Plan appropriate.
By signing this Agreement, the Employee acknowledges that s/he has been informed
of his/her right of access and correction to personal data by contacting the
local Human Resources Representative. The Employee further acknowledges that
the
transfer of the information outlined here is important to the administration
of
the Plan and failure to consent to the transmission of such information may
limit or prohibit participation under the Plan.
