c. | As a condition to receipt of this Award, the Employee hereby authorizes the Company to issue such instructions to the transfer agent as the Company may deem necessary or proper to comply with the intent and purposes of this Agreement and the Plan, including their provisions regarding forfeiture, and that this paragraph shall be deemed to constitute the stock power, endorsed in blank, contemplated by Section 8(b) of the Plan. |
4. | Terms of the Plan Shall Govern. The Award is made pursuant to, and is subject to the Plan, including, without limitation, its provisions governing a Change in Control and Cancellation and Rescission of Awards. In the case of any conflict between the Plan and this Agreement, the terms of the Plan shall control.

Upon the earlier of Employee's Termination of Employment during the Restriction Period or the Employee's giving of notice of the Employee's voluntary Termination of Employment during the Restriction Period, all shares of Stock covered by this Award that remain subject to restriction shall be forfeited by the Employee. However, if the Employee's employment is involuntarily terminated by the Company (other than for Cause) during the Restriction Period, in the event of the Employee's Termination of Employment by reason of death or Disability during the Restriction Period, or in the event of the Employee's Retirement during the Restriction Period, the Compensation Committee shall have the discretion to waive, in whole or in part, any or all remaining restrictions with respect to any or all of the Restricted Stock covered by this Award. |
8. | Change in Control. In the event of a Change in Control, the restrictions applicable to any shares of Stock covered by this Award shall lapse, and such shares of Stock shall become free of all restrictions and become fully vested and transferable. |
9. | Delivery of Shares. At the Employee's request, if and when the Restriction Period expires for a share or shares of Restricted Stock without a prior forfeiture, the Company will deliver certificate(s) for such share(s) to the Employee. |
10. | Acquisition of Shares For Investment Purposes Only. By his or her signature hereto, the Employee hereby agrees with the Company as follows: |
a. | The Employee is acquiring the shares of Stock covered by this Award for investment purposes only and not with a view to resale or other distribution thereof to the public in violation of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and shall not dispose of any of the shares of the Stock in transactions which, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, violate the 1933 Act, or the rules and regulations thereunder, or any applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws; |
b. | If any of the shares of Stock covered by this Award shall be registered under the 1933 Act, no public offering (otherwise than on a national securities exchange, as defined in the Exchange Act) of any such shares shall be made by the Employee (or any other person) under such circumstances that he or she (or any other such person) may be deemed an underwriter, as defined in the 1933 Act; and |
c. | The Company shall have the authority to endorse upon the certificate or certificates representing the Stock covered by this Agreement such legends referring to the foregoing restrictions. |
11. | No Right to Continued Employment. Nothing contained in the Plan or this Agreement shall confer upon the Employee any right to continued employment nor shall it interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any subsidiary or Affiliate to terminate the employment of the Employee at any time. |
12. | Withholding of Taxes. No later than the date as of which an amount first becomes includible in the Employee's gross income for Federal income tax purposes, the Employee shall pay to the Company or make arrangements satisfactory to the Company regarding the payment of, any Federal, state, local or foreign taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld. |
