Period will immediately lapse on all Restricted Stock granted to the Grantee.

Control during the Restriction Period, the Restriction Period will immediately lapse
on all Restricted Stock granted to the Grantee.]

termination of employment for purposes of this paragraph 2 if the Grantee continues
without interruption to serve thereafter as an officer or director of the Company or
in such other capacity as determined by the Committee (or if no Committee is
appointed, the Board), and the termination of such successor service shall be
treated as the applicable termination.
