The Award is made under the Pacific Continental Corporation Amended and Restated 2006 Stock Option and Equity Compensation Plan (the “Plan”), a copy of which has been provided to Grantee. The terms and conditions of the Plan are hereby incorporated into this Agreement by this reference. In the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of the Plan and the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the former shall govern. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement that are not defined herein shall have the meaning given to such terms in the Plan.

5.	Grantee shall have all of the rights of a shareholder with respect to shares of Restricted Stock subject to this Award.

6.	Shares of Restricted Stock subject to this Award may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of in any manner, other than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution, prior to the time such shares Vest.

Shares of Restricted Stock subject to this Award shall not be issued, unless the issuance and delivery of such shares shall comply with all relevant provisions of law, including, without limitation, all securities laws, rules and regulations, and the requirements of any stock exchange upon which the Restricted Stock may then be listed. Issuance of shares of Restricted Stock is further subject to the approval of counsel for Company with respect to such compliance.

Company, in its sole discretion, may take any actions reasonably believed by it to be required to comply with any local, state, or federal tax laws relating to the reporting or withholding of taxes attributable to the issuance of Restricted Stock subject to this Award, including, but not limited to, (i) withholding, or causing to be withheld, from any form of compensation or other amount due Grantee any amount required to be withheld under applicable tax laws, or (ii) requiring Grantee to make arrangements satisfactory to Company (including, without limitation, paying amounts) to satisfy any tax obligations, as a condition to recognizing any rights of Grantee under the Award.

9.	Grantee acknowledges that he/she understands the following:

Under Section 83(a) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), the excess of the fair market value on the date of Vesting of the shares of Restricted Stock over the amount, if any, paid for such shares will be taxed at the time of Vesting as ordinary income and subject to payroll and withholding taxes and to tax reporting, as applicable.

Grantee may elect under Section 83(b) of the Code to be taxed at ordinary income rates based on the fair market value of the shares of Restricted Stock at the time such shares are awarded, rather than at the time and as the shares of Restricted Stock Vest. Such election (an “83(b) Election”) must be filed with the Internal Revenue Service within thirty (30) days from the Date of Award. Grantee (a) will not be entitled to a deduction for any ordinary income previously recognized as a result of the 83(b) Election if shares of Restricted Stock are subsequently forfeited to the Company, and (b) the 83(b) Election may cause Grantee to recognize more compensation income than he/she would have otherwise recognized if the value of the shares of Restricted Stock subsequently declines. The form for making an 83(b) Election is attached hereto as Exhibit A. FAILURE TO FILE SUCH AN ELECTION WITHIN THE REQUIRED THIRTY (30) DAY PERIOD AND AS OTHERWISE DESCRIBED IN THE FORM MAY RESULT IN THE RECOGNITION OF ORDINARY INCOME BY GRANTEE AS SHARES OF RESTRICTED STOCK VEST.

The foregoing is only a summary of the federal income tax laws that apply to the shares of Restricted Stock and does not purport to be complete. GRANTEE IS DIRECTED TO SEEK INDEPENDENT ADVICE REGARDING THE APPLICABLE PROVISIONS OF THE CODE, THE INCOME TAX LAWS OF ANY MUNICIPALITY, STATE OR FOREIGN COUNTRY IN WHICH HE/SHE MAY RESIDE, AND THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF YOUR DEATH.

10.

Grantee agrees to deliver a Stock Power and Assignment Separate from Certificate in the form attached as Exhibit B (with the transferee, certificate number, date and number of shares left blank), executed by Grantee and his spouse, if any, along with any certificate(s) evidencing shares of Restricted Stock issued to him, to the Secretary of the Company or its designee (“Escrow Holder”). GRANTEE HEREBY APPOINTS THE ESCROW HOLDER TO HOLD SUCH STOCK POWER AND ANY SUCH CERTIFICATE(S) IN ESCROW AND TO TAKE ALL SUCH ACTIONS, AND TO EFFECTUATE ALL SUCH TRANSFERS AND/OR RELEASES OF SUCH SHARES, AS ARE REQUIRED TO EFFECTUATE THE TERMS OF THIS AWARD. The foregoing appointment is a power coupled with an interest and may not be revoked by Grantee. Grantee and the Company agree that any Escrow Holder will not be liable to any party to any person for any actions or omissions, unless Escrow Holder is grossly negligent relative thereto. Escrow Holder may rely on any letter, notice or other document executed by any signature purported to be genuine and may rely on advice of counsel and obey any order of any court with respect to the transactions by this Agreement. Shares of Restricted Stock subject to this Award shall be released to Grantee from escrow as they Vest.

11.	Miscellaneous.

Each party agrees to cooperate fully with the other party and to execute such further instruments, documents and agreements, and to give such further written assurances, as may be reasonably requested by the other party to better evidence and reflect the transactions described herein and contemplated hereby, and to carry into effect the intents and purposes of this Agreement.

All pronouns shall be deemed to include the masculine, feminine, neuter, singular or plural forms thereof, as the context may require. All references to “paragraph” shall be deemed to refer to paragraphs of this Agreement, unless otherwise specifically stated.

Waiver. No waiver of any term, provision or condition of this Agreement, whether by conduct or otherwise, in any one or more instances, shall be deemed to be, or be construed as, a further or continuing waiver of any such term, provision or condition or as a waiver of any other term, provision or condition of this Agreement.

Choice of Law. It is the intention of the parties that the internal laws of the State of Oregon (irrespective of any choice of law principles) shall govern the validity of this Agreement, the construction of its terms and the interpretation of the rights and duties of the parties.

Successors in Interest. This Agreement and all of its terms, conditions and covenants are intended to be fully effective and binding, to the extent permitted by law, on the heirs, executors, administrators, successors and permitted assigns of the parties hereto.
