2. Shares Held in Escrow. Unless and until the Shares of Restricted Stock shall have vested in the manner set forth in paragraphs 3, 4, 5 or 6, such Shares shall be issued in the name of the Employee and held by the Secretary of the Company (or its designee) as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”), and shall not be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of, and shall not be pledged or otherwise hypothecated. The Company may determine to issue the Shares in book entry form and/or may instruct the transfer agent for its Common Stock to place a legend on the certificates representing the Restricted Stock or otherwise note its records as to the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Agreement and the Plan. The certificate or certificates representing such Shares shall not be delivered by the Escrow Agent to the Employee unless and until the Shares have vested and all other terms and conditions in this Agreement have been satisfied.
3. Vesting Schedule. Except as provided in paragraphs 4, 5 and 6, and subject to paragraph 7, the Shares of Restricted Stock awarded by this Agreement shall vest in the Employee, as to 100% of such Shares on the fourth anniversary of the date of this Agreement. On any scheduled vesting date, vesting actually will occur only if the Employee remains an Employee, Consultant or Director of the Company or an Affiliate on such date.
4. Acceleration of Vesting upon Death or Disability. In the event of the Employee’s Termination of Service due to his or her death or Disability, one hundred percent (100%) of any unvested Shares awarded by this Agreement shall immediately vest. The Shares which so vest shall be deemed to have vested as of the date of the Termination of Service.
5. Acceleration of Vesting upon Change of Control. Subject to the terms of the Plan, in the event a Change of Control that occurs prior to Employee’s Termination of Service, one hundred percent (100%) of any unvested Shares awarded by this Agreement shall immediately vest.
6. Committee Discretion. The Committee, in its discretion, may accelerate the vesting of the balance, or some lesser portion of the balance, of the unvested Shares of Restricted Stock at any time. If so accelerated, such Shares shall be considered as having vested as of the date specified by the Committee.
7. Forfeiture. Except as provided in paragraphs 4 and 5, and notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, the balance of the Shares of Restricted Stock which have not vested at the time of the Employee’s Termination of Service shall thereupon be forfeited and automatically transferred to and reacquired by the Company at no cost to the Company. The Employee hereby appoints the Escrow Agent with full power of substitution, as the Employee’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact with irrevocable power and authority in the name and on behalf of the Employee to take any action and execute all documents and instruments, including, without limitation, stock powers which may be necessary to transfer the certificate or certificates evidencing such unvested Shares to the Company upon such Termination of Service.
8. Death of Employee. Any distribution or delivery to be made to the Employee under this Agreement shall, if the Employee is then deceased, be made to the Employee’s designated beneficiary, or if no beneficiary survives the Employee, to the administrator or executor of the Employee’s estate. Any transferee must furnish the Company with (a) written notice of his or her status as transferee, and (b) evidence satisfactory to the Company to establish the validity of the transfer and compliance with any laws or regulations pertaining to said transfer.
9. Withholding of Taxes. The Company (or the employing Affiliate) will withhold a portion of the Shares of Restricted Stock that have an aggregate market value sufficient to pay the minimum federal, state and local income, employment and any other applicable taxes required to be withheld by the Company or the employing Affiliate with respect to the Shares (the “Taxes”), unless the Committee allows the Employee to make alternate arrangements satisfactory to the Committee for such withholdings in advance of the arising of any withholding obligations.
Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, no Restricted Stock will be released from the escrow established pursuant to paragraph 2 unless and until satisfactory arrangements (as determined by the Committee) have been made by the Employee with respect to the payment of any Taxes.
10. Rights as Stockholder. Neither the Employee nor any person claiming under or through the Employee shall have any of the rights or privileges of a stockholder of the Company in respect of any Shares deliverable hereunder unless and until certificates representing such Shares shall have been issued, recorded on the records of the Company or its transfer agents or registrars, and delivered to the Employee or the Escrow Agent. Except as provided in paragraph 12, after such issuance, recordation and delivery, the Employee shall have all the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to voting such Shares and receipt of dividends and distributions on such Shares.
11. No Effect on Employment. The Employee’s employment with the Company and its Affiliates is on an at-will basis only. Accordingly, subject to any employment contract with the Employee, the terms of the Employee’s employment with the Company and its Affiliates shall be determined from time to time by the Company or the Affiliate employing the Employee (as the case may be), and the Company or the Affiliate shall have the right, which is hereby expressly reserved, to terminate or change the terms of the employment of the Employee at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without good cause.
12. Changes in Stock. In the event that as a result of a stock dividend, stock split, reclassification, recapitalization, combination of Shares or the adjustment in capital stock of the Company or otherwise, or as a result of a merger, consolidation, spin-off or other reorganization, the Shares shall be increased, reduced or otherwise changed, and by virtue of any such change the Employee shall in his capacity as owner of unvested Shares of Restricted Stock which have been awarded to him (the “Prior Shares”) be entitled to new or additional or different shares of stock, cash or securities (other than rights or warrants to purchase securities); such new or additional or different shares, cash or securities shall thereupon be considered to be unvested Restricted Stock and shall be subject to all of the conditions and restrictions which were applicable to the Prior Shares pursuant to this Agreement and the Plan. If the Employee receives rights or warrants with respect to any Prior Shares, such rights or warrants may be held or exercised by the Employee, provided that until such exercise any such rights or warrants and after such exercise any shares or other securities acquired by the exercise of such rights or warrants shall be considered to be unvested Restricted Stock and shall be subject to all of the conditions and restrictions which were applicable to the Prior Shares pursuant to the Plan and this Agreement. The Committee in its absolute discretion at any time may accelerate the vesting of all or any portion of such new or additional shares of stock, cash or securities, rights or warrants to purchase securities or shares or other securities acquired by the exercise of such rights or warrants.
