Stock is issued in exchange for a Deferred Stock Unit will the Director have all of the rights of a
shareholder with respect to such share of Common Stock issued in exchange for a Deferred Stock
Unit.
4. Dividend Equivalent Payments. If during the period the Director holds any Deferred Stock
Units granted under this Agreement the Company pays a dividend in cash with respect to the
outstanding shares of the Common Stock (a “Cash Dividend”), then the Company will pay to the
Director an amount equal to the product of (a) the Deferred Stock Units awarded hereby that have

that have not been forfeited to the Company or exchanged by the Company for shares of the Common
Stock and (b) the number of shares of the Common Stock paid by the Company per share of the Common
Stock (collectively,

the “Stock Dividend Deferred Stock Units”). Each Stock Dividend Deferred Stock Unit will be
subject to same Forfeiture Restrictions and other restrictions, limitations and conditions
applicable to the Deferred Stock Unit for which such Stock Dividend Deferred Stock Unit was awarded
and will be exchanged for shares of the Common Stock at the same time and on the same basis as such
Deferred Stock Unit.

pledged, exchanged, hypothecated or otherwise transferred, encumbered or disposed of (other than
by will or the applicable laws of descent and distribution). Any such attempted sale, assignment,
pledge, exchange, hypothecation, transfer, encumbrance or disposition in violation of this
Agreement shall be void and the Company shall not be bound thereby. Further, any shares of the
Common Stock issued to the Director in exchange for Deferred Stock Units awarded hereby may not be
sold or otherwise disposed of in any manner that would constitute a violation of any applicable
securities laws. The Director also agrees that the Company may (a) refuse to cause the transfer of
any such shares of the Common Stock to be registered on the applicable stock transfer records of
the Company if such proposed transfer would, in the opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company,
constitute a violation of any applicable securities law and (b) give related instructions to the
transfer agent, if any, to stop registration of the transfer of such shares of the Common Stock.
The shares of Common Stock that may be issued under the Plan are registered with the Securities and
Exchange Commission under a Registration Statement on Form S-8. A Prospectus describing the Plan
and the shares of Common Stock is available from the Company.

Restrictions. Except as otherwise provided in Section 4(b), the Forfeiture Restrictions shall
lapse as to the Deferred Stock Units that are granted hereby at the end of the last day of the
Period of Restriction provided that the Director continues to be a member of the Board on such
date. If the Director ceases to be a member of the Board for any reason before the end of the last
day of the Period of Restriction including due to the death or disability of the Director, the
Forfeiture Restrictions then applicable to the Restricted Shares shall not lapse and all the
Restricted Shares shall be forfeited to the Company. The Director shall have no vested interest in
the Deferred Stock Units credited to his or her bookkeeping ledger account except as set forth in
this Section 6.

shall lapse as to the Deferred Stock Units that are granted hereby immediately upon the occurrence
of a Change in Control provided that the Director continues to be a member of the Board immediately
prior to the occurrence of such Change in Control.

not affect in any way the right or power of the Company or any company the stock of which is
awarded pursuant to this Agreement to make or authorize any adjustment, recapitalization,
reorganization or other change in its capital structure or its business, engage in any merger or
consolidation, issue any debt or equity securities, dissolve or liquidate, or sell, lease, exchange
or otherwise dispose of all or any part of its assets or business, or engage in any other corporate
act or proceeding.

will or by the laws of descent and distribution.

agreement, and no provision of this Agreement shall be construed or interpreted to create an
employment or service relationship between the Director and the Company or guarantee the right to
remain a member of the Board for any specified term.
10. Legend. The Director consents to the placing on the certificate for any shares of Common
Stock issued under the Agreement in certificated form an appropriate legend restricting resale or
other transfer of such shares except in accordance with such act and all applicable rules

written instrument executed by the Company and the Director. Only a written instrument executed
and delivered by the party waiving compliance hereof shall make any waiver of the terms or
conditions. Any waiver granted by the Company shall be effective only if executed and delivered by
a duly authorized executive officer of the Company. The failure of any party at any time or times
to require performance of any provisions hereof shall in no manner effect the right to enforce the

any such condition or breach, a waiver of any other condition, or the breach of any other term or
condition.
