The date of grant of the Restricted Shares is , 20 (the “Grant Date”).
The Recipient’s right, if any, to continue to be employed by the Company will not be enlarged or otherwise affected by the receipt of this Award, and the receipt of this Award will not in any way restrict the right of the Company to terminate the Recipient’s employment at any time.

There shall be no proportional vesting prior to a Vesting Date; all vesting shall occur only on the Vesting Date.
(b) Acceleration of Vesting of the Restricted Shares. The Restricted Shares shall become fully vested and any restrictions thereon shall automatically lapse upon the occurrence of any of the following events; ; provided, however, in no event may the vesting of any Shares held by an Recipient subject to Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act be accelerated until such time as the vesting would not violate Section 16(b).:

No such agreement shall extend to or affect any provision of this Agreement not expressly changed, modified, amended, discharged, terminated or waived or impair any right consequent on such a provision.
