Restricted Stock Unit Nontransferability |
|
This grant is an award of restricted stock units in the number of units set forth on the cover sheet, at the purchase price set forth on the cover sheet, and subject to the vesting conditions described below (“Restricted Stock Units”). The purchase price is deemed paid by your service as an employee of the Company. Your Restricted Stock Units may not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or otherwise encumbered or disposed of, whether by operation of law or otherwise. |

Vesting |
|
Your Restricted Stock Units vest as to one-third (1/3) of the total number of shares of Stock covered by this grant, as shown on the cover sheet, on each of the next three one-year anniversaries of the Grant Date, provided you then continue in Service. The resulting aggregate number of vested shares of Stock will be rounded to the nearest whole number, and you cannot vest in more than the number of shares covered by this grant.
Service for purposes of this Agreement shall be limited to Service as an employee of the Company or an Affiliate. |
|
|
|
Delivery of Shares |
|
A book entry for the shares of Stock represented by your Restricted Stock Units will be made in your name upon vesting. If Company determines not to satisfy your tax withholding obligation by withholding shares and if the shares relating to the vested Restricted Stock Units would otherwise be delivered during a period in which you the shares relating to the vested Restricted Stock Units would otherwise be delivered during a period in which you are (i) subject to a lock-up agreement restricting your ability to sell shares of Stock in the open market or (ii) restricted from selling shares of Stock in the open market because you are not then eligible to sell under the Company’s xxxxxxx xxxxxxx or similar plan as then in effect (whether because a trading window is not open or you are otherwise restricted from trading) and the Company determines not to satisfy tax withholding requirements by withholding shares that are otherwise issuable to you in connection with your vested Restricted Stock Units, delivery of the shares related to the vested Restricted Stock Units may be delayed until no earlier than the first date on which you are no longer prohibited from selling shares of Stock due to a lock-up agreement or xxxxxxx xxxxxxx plan restriction; provided, however, that the delivery of the shares related to vested Restricted Stock Units will be made by December 31 of the taxable year in which the Restricted Stock Units vest or such other time as is required to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. |
|
|
|

|
Notwithstanding the vesting schedule set forth above, vesting of your Restricted Stock Units shall accelerate as set forth in your |
|
|
employment agreement with the Company upon the termination of Service under certain conditions. |
|
|

Subject to the prior approval of the Compensation Committee, which may be withheld by the Compensation Committee, in its sole discretion, you may elect to satisfy this withholding obligation, in whole or in part, by causing the Company to withhold shares of Stock otherwise issuable to you or by delivering to the Company shares of Stock already owned by you. The shares of Stock so delivered or withheld must have an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the withholding obligation and may not be subject to any repurchase, forfeiture, unfulfilled vesting, or other similar requirements. |

The Company may in its sole discretion require that dividends be reinvested in additional stock units, subject to the same vesting conditions and delivered at the same |
|
|
time as the Restricted Stock Units.

|
|
|

|
The Company has the right to reacquire any or all of the shares of Stock acquired pursuant to this Restricted Stock Unit grant for two years after such shares of Stock are delivered to you, at a price equal to the par value of such shares, (i) if you violate any agreement covering (a) non-competition with the Company or an Affiliate or (b) non-disclosure of confidential information of the Company or an Affiliate, (ii) if you are terminated for Cause or (iii) if, subsequent to termination of your Service with the Company or an Affiliate, the Board determines that you committed acts or omissions which would have been the basis for a termination of your Service for Cause had such acts or omissions been discovered prior to termination of your Service. A notice of repurchase shall specify the date of closing of such repurchase, which shall be no later than 30 days from the date the Company exercises such right. In the event any such repurchase right is exercised, you shall be obligated to sell such stock to the Company. If the shares of Stock have been sold prior to the Board’s determination, you shall be required to pay to the Company an amount equal to the gross amount realized on such sale by you. This repurchase right is not considered a “repurchase” right for purposes of Section 18.3 of the Plan or this Agreement. |
