Annex A
Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement
Further Terms and Conditions of Award. It is understood and agreed that the Award of RSUs evidenced by the RSU Award Agreement to which this is annexed is subject to the following additional terms and conditions:
1.Termination of Service. Upon the Recipient’s Termination of Service, unvested RSUs (i.e., RSUs for which the Period of Restriction has not lapsed) shall be treated as follows:
a.Death or Disability – If the Recipient’s Termination of Service is on account of death or Disability, then all of the unvested RSUs shall immediately become nonforfeitable and the restrictions with respect to such RSUs shall lapse as of the date of death or the date the Compensation and Human Resources Committee (the “Committee”) determines that the Disability occurred, as applicable.
b.Retirement– If the Recipient’s Termination of Service is on account of Retirement, then all unvested RSUs shall immediately become nonforfeitable and the restrictions with respect to such RSUs shall lapse as of the date of such Termination of Service.
c.Any Other Reason – If the Recipient’s Termination of Service is on account of any other reason, then all unvested RSUs shall be cancelled as of the end of the day of such Termination of Service.
2.Fractional Shares. If any calculation of Shares to be awarded or to be cancelled or to be released from restrictions or limitations would result in a fraction, any fraction of 0.5 or greater will be rounded to one, and any fraction of less than 0.5 will be rounded to zero.
3.Ratification of Actions. By accepting the RSU Award or other benefit under the Plan, the Recipient and each person claiming under or through him shall be conclusively deemed to have indicated the Recipient’s acceptance and ratification of, and consent to, any action taken under the Plan or the RSU Award by the Company, the Board or the Committee.
4.Notices. Any notice hereunder to the Company shall be addressed to the head of the Company’s Human Resources Department, and any notice hereunder to Recipient shall be addressed to him or her at the address contained in the Company’s records, subject to the right of either party to designate at any time hereafter in writing some other address.
5.Nontransferability. Recipient may not sell, transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise dispose of the RSUs covered by this RSU Award Agreement, other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.
6.Governing Law and Severability. This RSU Award Agreement shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules, and regulations, and to such approvals by any governmental agencies or national securities exchanges as may be required. To the extent not preempted by Federal law, the RSU Award Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to conflicts of law provisions. The provisions

of this RSU Award Agreement are severable and if any one or more provisions are determined to be illegal or otherwise unenforceable, in whole or in part, the remaining provisions shall nevertheless be binding and enforceable.
7.Definitions. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in the RSU Award Agreement or in this Annex A attached thereto shall have the meanings given them in the Plan.
8.Code Section 409A. It is intended that this RSU Award Agreement will either comply with or be exempt from Code Section 409A to the extent applicable, and the Plan and the RSU Award Agreement shall be interpreted and construed on a basis consistent with such intent. The RSU Award Agreement may be amended in any respect deemed necessary (including retroactively) by the Committee in order to preserve compliance with (or exemption from) Code Section 409A. The preceding shall not be construed as a guarantee of any particular tax effect for any benefits or amounts paid pursuant to this RSU Award Agreement.
9.Waiver. The Recipient and every person claiming under or through the Recipient hereby waives to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law any right to a trial by jury with respect to any litigation directly or indirectly arising out of, under, or in connection with the Plan or this RSU Award Agreement issued pursuant to the Plan.
10.Interpretation. The Committee shall have final authority to interpret and construe the Plan and this RSU Award Agreement and Annex A and to make any and all determinations thereunder, and its decision shall be binding and conclusive upon the Recipient and his/her legal representative in respect of any questions arising under the Plan or this RSU Award Agreement and Annex A.
11.Securities Laws. The Recipient acknowledges that certain restrictions under state or federal securities laws may apply with respect to the Shares underlying the RSUs granted pursuant to this RSU Award Agreement, even after the Shares have been delivered to the Recipient. Specifically, Recipient acknowledges that, to the extent he or she is an "affiliate" of the Company (as that term is defined by the Securities Act of 1933), the Shares underlying the RSUs granted pursuant to this RSU Award Agreement are subject to certain trading restrictions under applicable securities laws (including particularly the Securities and Exchange Commission's Rule 144). Recipient hereby agrees to execute such documents and take such actions as the Company may reasonably require with respect to state and federal securities laws and any restrictions on the resale of such shares which may pertain under such laws.
