shares of Restricted Stock set forth in the Grant Notice (the “Award”), in consideration of
the Participant’s agreement to remain in the service or employ of the Company or one of its

2.5 Restrictions.
(a) Tax Withholding; Conditions to Issuance of Certificates. Notwithstanding any
other provision of this Agreement:
(i) The Participant is ultimately liable and responsible for all taxes owed in connection with
the Restricted Stock, regardless of any action the Company or any of its Subsidiaries takes with
respect to any tax withholding obligations that arise in connection with the Restricted Stock.
Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries makes any representation or undertaking regarding
the treatment of any tax withholding in connection with the awarding or vesting of the Restricted
Stock or the subsequent sale of shares. The Company and its Subsidiaries do not commit and are
under no obligation to structure the Restricted Stock to reduce or eliminate the Participant’s tax
liability.
(ii) Prior to any tax withholding becoming due, the Participant must make arrangements
satisfactory to the Committee to satisfy such withholding and must satisfy such tax withholdings
when due. The Company (or the employing Subsidiary) may withhold a portion of the shares of
Restricted Stock that have an aggregate Fair Market Value sufficient to pay the minimum federal,
state and local income, employment and any other applicable taxes required to withheld by the
Company or the employing Subsidiary with respect to the shares. Notwithstanding any contrary
provision of this Agreement, no vested Shares will be issued unless and until satisfactory
arrangements (as determined by the Committee) will have been made by the Participant with respect
to the payment of any income and other taxes which the Company determines must be withheld or
collected with respect to such Shares. In addition and to the maximum extent permitted by law, the
Company (or the employing Subsidiary) has the right to retain without notice from salary or other
amounts payable to the Participant, cash having a value sufficient to satisfy any tax withholding
obligations that cannot be satisfied by the withholding of otherwise deliverable Shares.
(iii) The Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificate or certificates
for any Shares prior to the fulfillment of all of the following conditions: (A) the admission of
the Shares to listing on all stock exchanges on which such Shares are then listed, (B) the
completion of any registration or other qualification of the Shares under any state or federal law
or under rulings or regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission or other governmental
regulatory body, which the Committee shall, in its sole and absolute discretion, deem necessary and
advisable, (C) the obtaining of any approval or other clearance from any state or federal
governmental agency that the Committee shall, in its absolute discretion, determine to be necessary
or advisable and (D) the lapse of any such reasonable period of time following the date the
Restrictions lapse or are removed as the Committee may from time to time establish for reasons of
administrative convenience.
(b) Rights as Stockholder. Except as otherwise provided herein, upon the Grant Date
the Participant shall have all the rights of a stockholder with respect to the Shares, subject to
the Restrictions herein, including the right to receive all dividends or other distributions paid
with respect to such Shares; provided, that, dividends and distributions (the “Dividends”)
shall be subject to transfer restrictions, with respect to Dividends paid in Shares, and a risk of
forfeiture to the same extent as the Shares with respect to which such Dividends have been
distributed and the Committee may impose additional resale or other conditions on the Shares as it
may determined in its sole discretion. Accordingly, the Participant shall only be entitled to receive such Dividends when the Shares (with
respect to which such Dividends have been distributed) vest pursuant to Article II. Such ownership
of Shares and Dividends shall be evidenced by book entries on the records of the Company and such
Dividends shall be considered Restricted Stock herein. Promptly following the vesting of Shares
and the lapse of the transfer restrictions pursuant to this Agreement, Shares and cash and/or
stock, as applicable evidencing such Dividends shall be transferred to the Participant (or his/her
permitted transferees) by the Company with such legends as shall be determined by the Company.

Plan shall be administered, and the Awards are granted, only in such a manner as to conform to such

Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such laws, rules and
regulations.
3.4 Amendment, Suspension and Termination. To the extent permitted by the Plan, this
Agreement may be wholly or partially amended or otherwise modified, suspended or terminated at any

any underwriter engaged by the Company, not to sell or otherwise transfer or dispose of any

following the effective date of any registration statement of the Company filed under the
Securities Act as the Company or such underwriter shall specify reasonably and in good faith, not
to exceed 180 days in the case of the Company’s initial public offering or 90 days in the case of
any other public offering.
3.8 Participant Representation. The Participant has no plan or intention to acquire
any securities of the Company in addition to those Shares received hereunder, provided that
acquisitions of the Company’s securities in any transactions on or after the Grant Date that are
