Shares of Restricted Stock may not be transferred by the Grantee or subjected to any security interest until the shares have become vested pursuant to this Agreement and the Plan.
2. Vesting and Nonassignability of Restricted Stock.
(a) The shares of Restricted Stock shall become vested, and the restrictions described in Sections 2(b) and 2(c) shall lapse, upon the Grantee’s satisfaction of the requirements of the Vesting Schedule set forth in the Summary of Xxxxx. The Restricted Stock may accelerate in vesting in accordance with Section 2.2(b)(iii) of the Grantee’s employment agreement with the Company, dated February 3, 2012 (the “Employment Agreement”).
(b) If the Grantee ceases to be employed by, or provide service to, the Employer for any reason before the Restricted Stock fully vests, the shares of Restricted Stock that are not then vested shall be forfeited and must be immediately returned to the Company.
(c) During the period before the shares of Restricted Stock vest (the “Restriction Period”), the non-vested Restricted Stock may not be assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of by the Grantee. Any attempt to assign, transfer, pledge or otherwise dispose of the shares contrary to the provisions hereof, and the levy of any execution, attachment or similar process upon the shares, shall be null, void and without effect.
3. Issuance of Certificates.
(a) Stock certificates representing the Restricted Stock may be issued by the Company and held in escrow by the Company until the Restricted Stock vests, or the Company may hold non-certificated shares until the Restricted Stock vests. During the Restriction Period, the Grantee shall receive any cash dividends with respect to the shares of Restricted Stock, may vote the shares of Restricted Stock and may participate in any distribution pursuant to a plan of dissolution or complete liquidation of the Company. In the event of a dividend or distribution payable in stock or other property or a reclassification, split up or similar event during the Restriction Period, the shares or other property issued or declared with respect to the non-vested shares of Restricted Stock shall be subject to the same terms and conditions relating to vesting as the shares to which they relate.
(b) When the Grantee obtains a vested right to shares of Restricted Stock, a certificate representing the vested shares shall be issued to the Grantee, free of the restrictions under Section 2 of this Agreement.
(c) The obligation of the Company to deliver shares upon the vesting of the Restricted Stock shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules, and regulations and such approvals by governmental agencies as may be deemed appropriately to comply with relevant securities laws and regulations.
4. Change of Control. The provisions of the Plan applicable to a Change of Control (as defined in the Plan) shall apply to the Restricted Stock, and, in the event of a Change of Control, the Board may take such actions as it deems appropriate pursuant to the Plan.
5. Grant Subject to Plan Provisions. This grant is made pursuant to the Plan, the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference, and in all respects shall be interpreted in accordance with the Plan.

The Board shall have the authority to interpret and construe the grant pursuant to the terms of the Plan, and its decisions shall be conclusive as to any questions arising hereunder.
6. Withholding. The Grantee shall be required to pay to the Company, or make other arrangements satisfactory to the Company to provide for the payment of, any federal, state, local or other taxes that the Employer is required to withhold with respect to the grant or vesting of the Restricted Stock. Subject to Board approval, the Grantee may elect to satisfy any tax withholding obligation of the Employer with respect to the Restricted Stock by having shares
withheld up to an amount that does not exceed the minimum applicable withholding tax rate for federal (including FICA), state, local and other tax liabilities.
7. Section 83(b) Election. The Grantee hereby acknowledges that the Grantee has been informed that, with respect to the Restricted Stock, the Grantee may file an election with the Internal Revenue Service, within 30 days of the execution of this Agreement, electing pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, (the “Code”) to be taxed currently on any difference between the purchase price of the Restricted Stock and their fair market value on the date of purchase. Absent such an election, taxable income will be measured and recognized by the Grantee at the time or times at which the forfeiture restrictions on the Restricted Stock lapse. The Grantee is strongly encouraged to seek the advice of his own tax consultants in connection with the issuance of the Restricted Stock and the advisability of filing of the election under Section 83(b) of the Code. A form of Election under Section 83(b) is attached hereto as Exhibit A for reference.
THE GRANTEE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT IS NOT THE COMPANY’S, BUT RATHER THE GRANTEE’S SOLE RESPONSIBILITY TO FILE THE ELECTION UNDER SECTION 83(b) TIMELY.
8. No Employment or Other Rights. This grant shall not confer upon the Grantee any right to be retained by or in the employ or service of the Employer and shall not interfere in any way with the right of the Employer to terminate the Grantee’s employment or service at any time. The right of the Employer to terminate at will the Grantee’s employment or service at any time for any reason is specifically reserved.
9. Assignment by Company. The rights and protections of the Company hereunder shall extend to any successors or assigns of the Company and to the Company’s parents, subsidiaries, and affiliates. This Agreement may be assigned by the Company without the Grantee’s consent.
10. Applicable Law. The validity, construction, interpretation and effect of this instrument shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to the conflicts of laws provisions thereof.
