RECITALS
WHEREAS,
the Company has awarded Grantee restricted share units (the “Share Units”)
pursuant to the terms of the Plan; and
WHEREAS,
the Plan contemplates a written document evidencing the award;
NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants contained
in this Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound,
the parties agree as follows:
ARTICLE
I
AWARD
OF SHARES
1.1 Award. Subject
to the terms and conditions herein and in the Plan, Grantee is hereby awarded
_______ Share
Units. Each Share Unit represents Grantee’s right to receive
one share of the Company’s common stock, $0.01 par value (“Common Stock”) on the
applicable delivery date set forth herein.
1.2 Vesting of Share
Units. Subject to Section 3.2 below, Grantee’s Share Units
shall vest on the first anniversary of the Grant Date (the “Vesting Date”),
provided that Grantee has not ceased to serve as a director of the Company and
its Affiliates prior to such date. Share Units that
do not become vested pursuant to this Section 1.2 or Section 3.2 shall be
forfeited and Grantee shall have no further rights with respect to such Share
Units.
1.3 Delivery of
Shares. Subject to Section 3.2, the shares of Common Stock
represented by Grantee’s vested Share Units shall be delivered to Grantee, or to
Grantee’s estate, on the Vesting Date.
1.4 No Rights as
Stockholder. Until such time as shares of Common Stock
represented by the Share Units have been delivered to Grantee, Grantee shall
have none of the rights of a stockholder with respect to the Common
Stock.
1.5 Dividend Equivalent
Payments. Dividend equivalents shall be credited on any vested
Share Units at the time of any payment of dividends to stockholders of Common
Stock. The amount of any such dividend equivalents shall equal the
amount that would have been payable to Grantee as a stockholder in respect of a
number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of Grantee’s then vested
Share Units. Any such dividend equivalents shall be credited to
Grantee as of the date on which such dividend would have been payable to
stockholders and shall be converted into additional Share Units (which shall be
immediately vested) based upon the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock
on the date of such crediting. Payment of such dividend equivalents
in the form of shares of Common Stock represented by such additional Share Units
shall be made on the delivery date for the Share Units with respect to which the
dividend equivalents were credited.
ARTICLE
II
TRANSFER
RESTRICTIONS
2.1 Restriction on
Transfer. Grantee shall not transfer, assign, encumber or
otherwise dispose of any Share Units at any time, other than by will or by the
laws of descent and distribution. Any heir or legatee of Grantee
shall take rights herein granted subject to the terms and conditions
hereof.
ARTICLE
III
FORFEITURE
AND ADJUSTMENT OF SHARE UNITS
3.1 Forfeiture. Subject
to Section 3.2 below, if Grantee ceases to serve as a director of the Company
and its Affiliates for any reason, Grantee’s Share Units that have not become
vested pursuant to Section 1.2 shall be forfeited and Grantee shall have no
further rights with respect to such Share Units.
3.2 Change in
Control. In the event that there is a Change in Control while
Grantee still serves as a director of the Company or an Affiliate, any of
Grantee’s Share Units that have not yet vested shall become immediately vested
and the shares of Common Stock represented by such vested Share Units shall be
delivered to Grantee upon such Change in Control.
3.3 Adjustments Upon Certain
Events. Upon the occurrence of any unusual or nonrecurring
event (including, without limitation, any of the events described in Section 4.2
of the Plan) affecting the Company, any Subsidiary or Affiliate, or the
financial statements of the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate, or of
changes in applicable laws, regulations, or accounting principles, the Board
may, in its sole discretion, make such adjustments to the Share Units as it
deems appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of benefits,
including: (i) adjusting any or all of the number of shares of Common Stock or
other securities of the Company (or number and kind of other securities or
property) subject to the Share Units; (ii) providing for an equivalent award in
respect of securities of the surviving entity of any merger,
-2-
consolidation
or other transaction or event having a similar effect; or (iii) making provision
for a cash payment to Grantee; provided, however, that no
adjustment shall be made to the timing of delivery of shares of Common Stock or
other payment unless such adjustment complies with Section 409A of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).
ARTICLE
IV
GENERAL
PROVISIONS

Laws. Upon the delivery of any shares of Common Stock under
this Agreement, Grantee (or any person lawfully claiming under Grantee) will

Company may reasonably request in order to comply with applicable securities
laws or with this Agreement.
4.3 Compliance With
Laws. Notwithstanding any of the other provisions hereof,
Grantee agrees that the Company will not be obligated to issue any shares

or regulation of any governmental authority, or to register the shares of Common
Stock under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
4.4 Withholding of
Tax. To the extent that the grant or vesting of the Share

right and is hereby authorized to withhold from the delivery of the shares of

Grantee, the amount (in cash, shares of Common Stock, other securities, other
awards or other property) of any such withholding or other taxes in respect of
the Share Units and dividend equivalents, and to take such other action as may

payment of such taxes, including requiring Grantee to pay to the Company such
amount of money as the Company may require to meet its obligation under
applicable tax laws.
