, 20

X.X. Xxxxxx, Inc. (the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, pursuant to the Amended and Restated 2006 Stock Incentive 2006 SIP (the “2006 SIP”), hereby grants (the “Participant”) a Restricted Stock Unit Award (“Award”) as set forth below. This Award is subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement (the “Agreement”) and in the 2006 SIP (a copy of which is attached to this Agreement). The Administrator of this Award under the 2006 SIP is the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company and it shall determine or resolve any conflicts in this Agreement, the 2006 SIP, and any Tax Deferral Notice (defined below) under Section 2. Capitalized terms not defined herein are defined in the 2006 SIP.

1. Terms. Each Restricted Stock Unit represents the right to receive one Share (as adjusted from time to time pursuant to the 2006 SIP) subject to fulfillment of the vesting, settlement and other conditions set forth in this Agreement.


Participant:

Number of Non-Statutory Restricted Stock Units (singular “RSU” or collectively “RSUs”):

Date of Award:

Vesting Dates:



Settlement Dates:

2. Settlement and Tax Deferral Election. Each vested RSU will be settled by the delivery of one Share (subject to adjustment under the 2006 SIP) to the Participant or, in the event of the Participant’s death, to the Participant’s estate or heirs, on the applicable Settlement Date; provided that the Participant has satisfied all obligations with regard to the Tax-Related Items (as defined below) in connection with the Award, and that the Participant has completed, signed and returned any documents and taken any additional action that the Company deems appropriate to enable it to accomplish the delivery of the Shares. No fractional shares will be issued under this Agreement.

Within thirty (30) days of the Date of Award, the Participant may elect to defer settlement of part of or all of the RSUs. The Participant shall provide a written notice (the “Tax Deferral Notice”) to the Company setting forth the Participant’s tax deferral election. If the Participant elects to defer settlement pursuant to this Section 2, the vested Shares will be settled on the Settlement Date(s) set forth in the attached Tax Deferral Notice.

3. Status of Award. Until the RSUs vest and are converted into Shares and such Shares are settled to the Participant pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Participant will have no rights as a stockholder of the Company with respect to the Shares subject to the Award (including, without limitation, no voting or dividend rights with respect to such Shares). Following the conversion of the RSUs to Shares and the settlement of such Shares to the Participant hereunder, the Participant will be recorded as a stockholder of the Company with respect to such Shares and shall have all voting rights and rights to dividends and other distributions with respect to such Shares.

4. Cease to Serve as Executive Officer. If the Participant’s status as an executive officer of the Company ceases, terminates or concludes for any reason, other than a termination related to Participant’s retirement, disability, death, or Change in Control, the Participant’s RSUs shall immediately cease to vest and any rights to the underlying Shares shall be forfeited on the effective date of such termination. The Board shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when the Participant’s continuous status as an executive officer has terminated for purposes of this Award. Upon such a termination, all unvested RSUs subject to this Award shall be forfeited by the Participant and cancelled and surrendered to the Company without payment of any consideration. If 12 months has passed since September 30, 20 , the Grantee’s separation from service is due to voluntary (without cause) or involuntary (without cause) termination or resignation before September 30, 20 , then the Grantee will be paid a number of RSUs determined on a pro-rata basis based on the number of full months completed from October 1, 20 to the date of separation of service. For purposes of this Section 4, “pro-rata portion” means a percentage, where the numerator is the number of full months completed between October 1, 20 and the date of the Grantee’s separation of service, and the denominator is 36 months.

5. Retirement, Disability, Death or Change in Control. In the event of any of (i) Participant’s retirement (at normal retirement age of 65 years old) from the Company, (ii) Participant’s disability, (iii) Participant’s death, or (iv) a Change in Control of the Company, then in each case, all the RSUs subject to this Award, if the Participant shall have been in continuous status as an executive officer since the Date of Award, shall vest in full. A “Change in Control” shall mean a Change in Control as defined in the Participant’s Stock Option Agreement, dated September 2, 2011, which was approved by the Board under the 2006 SIP.

6. Board Authority. Any question concerning the interpretation of this Agreement, the 2006 SIP, the Tax Deferral Notice, any adjustments required to be made under the 2006 SIP, any controversy that may arise under the 2006 SIP or this Agreement shall be determined by the Company’s Board of Directors in its sole and absolute discretion. Such decision shall be final and binding.

7. Transfer Restrictions. Any sale, transfer, assignment, encumbrance, pledge, hypothecation, conveyance in trust, gift, transfer by bequest, devise or descent, or other transfer or disposition of any kind, whether voluntary or by operation of law, directly or indirectly, of RSUs or Shares subject thereto prior to the date such Shares are issued to the Participant pursuant to this Agreement shall be strictly prohibited and void. Any Shares held by the Participant shall not be pledged or otherwise encumbered as long as the Participant is an executive officer.

8. Securities Law Compliance. The Company may impose such restrictions, conditions or limitations as it determines appropriate as to the timing and manner of any resales or other subsequent transfers of any Shares issued as a result of or under this Award, including without limitation (i) restrictions under an xxxxxxx xxxxxxx policy, (ii) restrictions that may be necessary in the absence of an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any other similar applicable law covering the Award and/or the Shares underlying the Award, and (iii) restrictions as to the use of a specified brokerage firm or other agent for such resales or other transfers. Any sale of the Shares must also comply with other applicable laws and regulations governing the sale of such Shares.

9. Certain Conditions of the Award. The Participant agrees that he or she will not acquire Shares pursuant to the Award or transfer, assign, sell or otherwise deal with such Shares except in compliance with applicable law. Further, in accepting the Award, the Participant acknowledges that:

- 4 -

(a)

The 2006 SIP is established voluntarily by the Company, it is discretionary in nature and it may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time;

(b)

The grant of the Award is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of awards, or benefits in lieu of awards, even if awards have been granted repeatedly in the past. All decisions with respect to future award grants, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company;

(c)

The Award and the Participant’s participation in the 2006 SIP will not be interpreted to form an employment contract or service contract or relationship with the Company or any Affiliate;

(d)

The Participant is voluntarily participating in the 2006 SIP; and

(e)

The future value of the underlying Shares is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty.

10. Tax Withholding.

(a)

Responsibility for Taxes. Regardless of any action taken by the Company with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to the Participant’s participation in the 2006 SIP and legally applicable to the Participant (the “Tax-Related Items”), the Participant acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items is and remains the Participant’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company. The Participant further acknowledges that the Company (a) makes no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any

- 5 -

aspect of the Award, including but not limited to, the grant, vesting or settlement of the Award, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such settlement, or the receipt of any dividends, and (b) does not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Award to reduce or eliminate the Participant’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if the Participant has become subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction between the Date of Award and the date of any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, the Participant acknowledges that the Company may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.

The Company may refuse to issue, deliver or settle the Shares or the proceeds of the sale of Shares if the Participant fails to comply with his or her obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.

(b)

Withholding in Shares. Subject to applicable law, the Company may require the Participant to satisfy Tax-Related Items by deducting from the Shares otherwise deliverable to the Participant in settlement of the Award a number of whole Shares having a fair market value, as defined in the 2006 SIP, as of the date on which the Tax-Related Items arise, not in excess of the amount of such Tax-Related Items.

To avoid negative accounting treatment, the Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding amounts or other applicable withholding rates. For tax purposes, the Participant is deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject to the vested Award, notwithstanding that a number of the Shares are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of any aspect of the Participant’s participation in the 2006 SIP.

- 6 -

(c)

Alternative Withholding Methods. The Company may satisfy its obligations for Tax-Related Items by:

(i)

withholding from the Participant’s cash compensation or fees paid to the Participant by the Company; or

(ii)

withholding from proceeds of the sale of Shares acquired upon vesting or settlement of the Award either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on the Participant’s behalf pursuant to this authorization).

11. Delivery of Documents and Notices.
