AWARD AGREEMENT ISSUED TO
VTA on VTB
X. Xxxxxxxx, Inc. (“Company”) and its shareholders believe that their business interests are best
served by extending to you an opportunity to earn additional compensation based on the growth of
the Company’s business. To this end, the Company’s shareholders adopted the X. Xxxxxxxx, Inc. 2006
Incentive Plan (“Plan”) as a means through which employees like you may share in the Company’s
success. You have been granted Restricted Stock and Performance Shares (collectively, the “Award”)
under the Plan.
This Award Agreement describes many features of your Award and the conditions you must meet before
you may receive the value associated with your Award. To ensure you fully understand these terms
and conditions, you should:
• | Read the Plan carefully to ensure you understand how the Plan works; | ||
• | Read this Award Agreement carefully to ensure you understand the nature of your Award and what you must do to earn it; and | ||
• | Contact Vtc at Vtd if you have any questions about your Award. |
Also, no later than Vte, you must return a signed copy of the Award Agreement to:

If you do not do this, your Award will be forfeited and you will not be entitled to receive
anything on account of this Award.
Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code (“Section 409A”) imposes substantial penalties on persons
who receive some forms of deferred compensation. Your Award has been designed to avoid these
penalties. However, it may be necessary to revise your Award Agreement if you are to avoid these
penalties. As a condition of accepting this Award, you must agree to accept those revisions,
without any further consideration, even if those revisions change the terms of your Award and
reduce its value or potential value.
Nature of Your Award
The terms and conditions affecting your Award are described in this Award Agreement and the Plan,
both of which you should read carefully. If you satisfy such conditions:
[1] The restrictions imposed on your Restricted Stock will be removed and you will own the
shares; and
1
[2] Your Performance Shares will be settled and you will receive the shares underlying such
Performance Shares. For purposes of this Award Agreement, each Performance Share represents
the right to receive a share of the Company’s common stock, par value $1.00 per share.
No later than Vte you must return a signed copy of this Award Agreement to:
Vtc

If you do not do this, your Award will be forfeited and you will not be entitled to receive
anything on account of this Award.
Grant Date: Vtb.
Number of Shares of Restricted Stock and Performance Shares: You have been granted Vtf shares of
Restricted Stock and Vtg Performance Shares.
When Your Award Will Be Settled
In General:
Restricted Stock: Until the conditions described in this Award Agreement are met, your
Restricted Stock will be held in escrow. On the Settlement Date, these shares either will
be distributed to you, free of any restrictions, or forfeited, depending on whether or not
you satisfy the conditions described in this Award Agreement and in the Plan.
Performance Shares: Your Performance Shares will be settled or will be forfeited depending
on whether or not you satisfy the conditions described in this Award Agreement and in the
Plan.
Normal Settlement Date: Normally, your Award will be settled using the following formula:
Restricted Stock: If the Company’s total shareholder return performance (as described below)
is below the 25th percentile (i.e., 75% of the companies perform better), none of the shares
of your Restricted Stock will vest. If the Company’s total shareholder return performance
meets or exceeds the 25th percentile, but is below the 50th percentile, the restrictions
will lapse (and your Restricted Stock will vest) with respect to half of the shares of your
Restricted Stock. If the Company’s total shareholder return performance meets or exceeds
the 50th percentile, but is below the 75th percentile, the restrictions will lapse (and your
Restricted Stock will vest) with respect to all of the shares of your Restricted Stock.
Performance Shares: If the Company’s total shareholder return performance is below the 75th
percentile, all of your Performance Shares will be forfeited. All of your Performance
Shares will be settled if Xxxxxxxx’x total shareholder return performance meets or exceeds
the 75th percentile.
2
The total shareholder return calculation takes the theoretical value of $100 invested in Xxxxxxxx
stock on the Grant Date and the theoretical value of $100 invested with each of the peer group
companies on the Grant Date. At the end of three years, the value of the Xxxxxxxx stock (assuming
all dividends are reinvested) is compared with the value of each of the peer group companies (again
assuming that all dividends are reinvested).
However, your Award may be settled earlier in the circumstances described in the next section.
How Your Award Might Be Settled Earlier Than the Normal Settlement Date: Your Award will be
immediately settled earlier than the Normal Settlement Date if there is a “change in control” (as
defined in the Plan).
How Your Termination of Employment Will Affect Your Award: You may forfeit your Award if you
terminate employment before the Normal Settlement Date, although this will depend on why you
terminate.
[1] If you terminate because of [a] death, [b] disability (as defined in the Plan) or [c]
after qualifying for retirement (as defined in the Plan) if the Committee agrees to treat
your termination as a “retirement,”
[i] Restricted Stock: You will receive a prorated number of the shares of Restricted
Stock granted through this Award Agreement but only if the performance criteria
described above are actually met at the Normal Settlement Date. If they are not,
all of your Restricted Stock will be forfeited. If those performance criteria are
met, you will receive a number of shares equal to:
Number of shares that would have been due to you if you had not terminated before the Normal Settlement Date |
X |
the number of whole months between
Vtb and your termination date the number of whole months between Vtb and the Normal Settlement Date |
[ii] Performance Shares: You will receive a prorated number of the shares underlying
your Performance Shares granted through this Award Agreement but only if the
performance criteria described above are actually met at the Normal Settlement Date.
If they are not, all of your Performance Shares will be forfeited. If those
performance criteria are met, you will receive a number of shares equal to:
Number of shares that would have been due to you if you had not terminated before the Normal Settlement Date |
X |
the number of whole months between
Vtb and your termination date the number of whole months between Vtb and the Normal Settlement Date |
[2] If you terminate under any other circumstances, all of the shares of Restricted Stock
and Performance Shares granted through this Award Agreement will be forfeited.
3
Settling Your Award
If all applicable conditions have been met, your vested Restricted Stock will be settled
automatically. If all applicable conditions have been met, you will receive the shares
underlying your vested Performance Shares as soon as administratively feasible, but no later
than 60 days, after the last day of the Performance Period (as defined in the Plan).
Other Rules Affecting Your Award
Rights During the Performance Period:
Restricted Stock: During the Performance Period (and even though these shares are held in
escrow until they are settled), you may exercise any voting rights associated with your
Restricted Stock. You also will be entitled to receive any dividends or other distributions
paid on these shares, although these dividends and other distributions also will be held in
escrow and will vest and be settled (or forfeited) on the same terms and conditions as the
related shares of Restricted Stock.
Performance Shares: During the Performance Period, you will have no voting or dividend
rights with respect to the shares underlying the Performance Shares.
Beneficiary Designation: You may name a beneficiary or beneficiaries to receive any portion of
your Award that is settled after you die. This may be done only on the attached Beneficiary
Designation Form and by following the rules described in that form. This form need not be
completed now and is not required as a condition of receiving your Award. If you die without
completing a Beneficiary Designation Form or if you do not complete that form correctly, your
beneficiary will be your surviving spouse or, if you do not have a surviving spouse, your estate.
Tax Withholding: Applicable withholding taxes must be withheld with respect to your Award. These
taxes may be paid in one of several ways. They are:
• | By the Company withholding this amount from other amounts owed to you (e.g., from your salary); | ||
• | By giving the Company a check (payable to “X. Xxxxxxxx, Inc.”) in an amount equal to the taxes that must be withheld; or | ||
• | By having the Company withhold a portion of the shares that otherwise would be distributed. The number of shares withheld will have a fair market value equal to the taxes that must be withheld. |
You must choose the approach you prefer before the shares are transferred to you, although the
Company may reject your preferred method for any reason (or for no reason). If this happens, the
Company will specify (from among the alternatives just listed) how these taxes are to be paid.
If you do not choose a method within 30 days of the Settlement Date, the Company will withhold
either through payroll practices or a portion of the shares that otherwise would be distributed.
4
The number of shares withheld will have a fair market value equal to the taxes that must be
withheld and the balance of the shares will be distributed to you.
Transferring Your Award: Normally, your Award may not be transferred to another person. However,
you may complete a Beneficiary Designation Form to name the person to receive any portion of your
Award that is settled after you die. Also, the Committee may allow you to place your Award into a
trust established for your benefit or the benefit of your family. Contact Vtc at the address or
number given below if you are interested in doing this.
Governing Law: This Award Agreement will be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws
(other than laws governing conflicts of laws) of the State of Ohio, except to the extent that the
Delaware General Corporation Law is mandatorily applicable.
Other Agreements: Also, your Award will be subject to the terms of any other written agreements
between you and the Company to the extent that those other agreements do not directly conflict with
the terms of the Plan or this Award Agreement.
Adjustments to Your Award: Your Award will be adjusted, if appropriate, to reflect any change to
the Company’s capital structure (e.g., the number of your Restricted Stock and Performance Shares
will be adjusted to reflect a stock split).
Other Rules: Your Award also is subject to more rules described in the Plan. You should read the
Plan carefully to ensure you fully understand all the terms and conditions of this Award.
