WHEREAS, pursuant to the provisions of said Plan, the Administrator has granted
to the Participant by action duly taken on ________ __, 20__, (the "Award Date")
a restricted stock award (the "Restricted Stock Award") based upon the terms and

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of services rendered and to be rendered by the

derived therefrom and other good and valuable consideration, the parties agree
as follows:
AGREEMENT

__________ shares of Common Stock of the Company (the "Restricted Stock")
Price (optional): $_____________ per share
Release of Company's Repurchase Option Schedule:

Repurchase Option
2. Restricted Stock.
(a) Restriction. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, Participant is not
permitted to sell, transfer, pledge or assign the shares of Restricted Stock
during the Restricted Period.
(b) Certificates and Legend. Participant shall be issued a stock certificate in
respect of such shares of Restricted Stock; and such certificate shall be
registered in the name of Participant, and shall bear an appropriate legend
referring to the terms, conditions, and restrictions applicable to such
Restricted Stock Award, substantially in the following form:
"The transferability of this certificate and the shares of stock represented
hereby are subject to the terms and conditions (including forfeiture) of the
FIIC, Inc. 2005 Stock Option, Deferred Stock and Restricted Stock Plan and a
Restricted Stock Award Agreement entered into between the registered owner and
FIIC, Inc. Copies of such Plan and
Agreement are on file in the offices of FIIC, Inc."
The stock certificates evidencing such shares shall be held in the custody of
the Company until the restrictions thereon shall have lapsed, and that, as a
condition of any Restricted Stock Award, Participant shall have delivered a
stock power, endorsed in blank, relating to the Stock covered by such Award, a
form of which is attached here to as Exhibit A .
(c) Voting Rights. Except as provided herein, Participant shall have all of the
rights of a shareholder of the Company, including the right to vote the shares,
and the right to receive any dividends thereon during the Restricted Period.
3. Repurchase Option
(a) In the event of any voluntary or involuntary termination of the
Participant's employment by the Company or Participant, as applicable, for any
or no reason, including death or disability (a "Termination") before all of the
shares of Restricted Stock are released from the Company's repurchase option
(see Section 4 below), the Company shall, upon the date of a Termination (as
reasonably fixed and determined by the Company) have an irrevocable, exclusive
option (the "Repurchase Option") for a period of ninety (90) days from such date
to repurchase all (but not less than all) of the shares of Restricted Stock that
shall constitute the Unreleased Shares (defined herein as any of the shares of
Restricted Stock that have not yet been released from the Repurchase Option) at
such time, at the price paid by the Participant at the time of issuance (the
"Repurchase Price");
2
(b) The Repurchase Option shall be exercised by the Company by written notice to
the Participant and, at the Company's option, (i) by delivery to the Participant
with such notice of a check in the amount of the purchase price for the shares
of Restricted Stock being repurchased, (ii) by cancellation by the Company of an
amount of the Participant's indebtedness to the Company equal to the purchase
price for the shares of Restricted Stock being repurchased, or (iii) by a
combination of (i) and (ii) so that the combined payment and cancellation of
indebtedness equals the aggregate Purchase Price. Upon delivery of such notice
and the payment of the purchase price of any of the ways described above, the
Company shall become the legal and beneficial owner of the shares of Restricted
Stock being repurchased and all rights and interests therein or relating
thereto, and the Company shall have the right to retain and transfer to its own
name the number of shares of Restricted Stock being repurchased by the Company.
(c) Whenever the Company shall have the right to repurchase shares of Restricted
Stock hereunder, the Company may designate and assign one or more employees,
officers, directors, or shareholders of the Company or other persons or
organizations to exercise all or a part of the Company's purchase rights under
this Agreement and purchase all or a part of such shares of Restricted Stock. If
the fair market value of the shares of Restricted Stock to be repurchased on the
date of such designation or assignment (the "Repurchase FMV") exceeds the
aggregate Repurchase Price of such shares of Restricted Stock, then each such
designee or assignee shall pay the Company cash equal the difference between the
Repurchase FMV and the aggregate Repurchase Price of such shares of Restricted
Stock.
4. Release of Shares From Repurchase Option
(a) Shares of Restricted Stock shall be released from Company's Repurchase
Option according to the schedule set forth in Section 1 above; provided in each
case that the Participant has not ceased to be an employee of the Company prior
to the date of any such release, but in which case the Participant shall get
vesting credit for the number of days in the final month that the Employee is
either an employee or director of or a consultant to the Company.
(b) Notwithstanding anything set forth in Section 4(a) above, in the event,
within twelve (12) months after a Change of Control, the Participant's
employment terminates other than (i) for Cause, (ii) voluntary termination by
the Participant but such resignation is not a result of a "Constructive
Termination", or (iii) death or disability of the Participant, fifty percent
(50%) of the Unreleased Shares shall be released from the Company's Repurchase
Option upon the date of such termination. For the purposes of this agreement,
"Constructive Termination" shall mean Employee's voluntary termination, upon 30
days prior written notice to the Company, following: (A) a material reduction or
change in job duties, responsibilities and requirements inconsistent with
Employee's position with the Company and Employee's prior duties,
responsibilities and requirements; (B) any reduction of Employee's base
compensation (other than in connection with a general decrease in base salaries
for most employees of the successor corporation); or (C) Employee's refusal to
relocate to a facility or location more than 75 miles from the Company's current
location.
3
For the purposes of the foregoing, a "Change of Control" shall have the meaning
set forth in Section 9(b) of the Plan. For purposes of this Agreement, "Cause"
shall mean (i) a material act of dishonesty in connection with the Participant's
responsibilities as an employee of the Company; (ii) the Participant's
conviction of, or plea of nolo contendere to, a felony or a crime involving
moral turpitude, (iii) the Participant's gross misconduct which has a material
adverse effect on the Company, or (iv) the Participant's consistent and willful
failure to perform his or her employment duties where such failure is not cured
within 30 days after written notice to Participant by the Company.
5. Governing Plan. This Agreement hereby incorporates by reference the Plan and
all of the terms and conditions of the Plan as heretofore amended and as the
same may be amended from time to time hereafter in accordance with the terms
thereof, but no such subsequent amendment shall adversely affect Participant's
rights under this Agreement and the Plan except as may be required by applicable
law. Participant expressly acknowledges and agrees that the provisions of this
Agreement are subject to the Plan; the terms of this Agreement shall in no
manner limit or modify the controlling provisions of the Plan, and in case of

follows:
(a) Acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan, a copy of which is attached

of shares of Restricted Stock the Company may require Participant receiving such
shares to make any representation and/or warranty to the Company as may, in the
judgment of counsel to the Company, be required under any applicable law or
regulation, including but not limited to a representation and warranty that the
shares are being acquired only for investment and without any present intention
to sell or distribute such shares if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company,
such a representation is required under the Securities Act of 1933 or any other
applicable law, regulation or rule of any governmental agency. Participant
hereby represents to the Company that the shares issuable pursuant to this
Agreement are being acquired only for investment and without any present
intention to sell or distribute such securities.
7. No Enlargement of Employee Rights. Nothing in this Agreement shall be
construed to confer upon Participant (if an employee) any right to continued
employment with the Company, any Parent or Subsidiary, or to restrict in any way
the right of the Company, a Subsidiary or Parent to terminate his/her
employment. Participant acknowledges that in the absence of an express written
employment agreement to the contrary, the Company may terminate Participant's
employment with the Company at any time, with or without cause.
4
8. Execution and Delivery. Participant acknowledges that Participant shall have
no rights with respect to any Award granted by the Company unless and until
Participant executes an Award Agreement and delivers it to the Company within
sixty days of such award (or such other period as the Participant may specify
after the Award Date).

accordance with any applicable law, from any compensation payable to him any

attorneys' fees incurred by the successful party or parties (including without

recovers judgment in any such action or proceeding such costs, expenses and
attorneys' fees shall be included as part of the judgment.

deliver any documents that may be reasonably necessary to carry out the
provisions of this Agreement, including but not limited to all acts and
documents related to compliance with federal and/or state securities laws.
14. Counterparts. For convenience this Agreement may be executed in any number
of identical counterparts, each of which shall be deemed a complete original in
itself and may be introduced in evidence or used for any other purpose without
the production of any other counterparts.
15. Invalid Provisions. In the event that any provision of this Agreement is
found to be invalid or otherwise unenforceable under any applicable law, such
invalidity or unenforceability shall not be construed as rendering any other
provisions contained herein invalid or unenforceable, and all such other
provisions shall be given full force and effect to the same extent as though the
invalid and unenforceable provision was not contained herein.
