respect to any Restricted Shares as to which the restrictions have
not yet lapsed shall be subject to the same restrictions as such

in the same manner as the Restricted
2

Disability (as defined in Paragraph 3.2(b)), (ii) that the Key Employee is
terminated by the Trust without Cause (as defined in Paragraph 3.2(b)) or (iii)

withholds in accordance with Paragraph 3.4) the amount of any state and federal
withholding tax obligation which will be imposed on the Trust by reason of the
lapsing of the Restriction Period for the Restricted Shares.
(b) For purposes of this Agreement, the terms "Cause" and
"Disability" shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Amended and
Restated Employment Agreement between the Trust and the Key Employee in effect
from time to time.
(c) Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, the Restriction
Period shall lapse as to all Restricted Shares. In such event, if the Key
Employee tenders (or the Trust otherwise withholds in accordance with Paragraph
3.4), the amount of any state and federal withholding tax obligation which will
be imposed on the Trust by reason of the lapsing of the Restriction Period for
the Restricted Shares, the Trust shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the
Key Employee, within ten (10) business days after the

termination without Cause or the Amended and Restated Executive Agreement
between the Trust and the Key Employee in effect from time to time, in the event
of a Change in Control, shall be setoff by the Trust by the following amount:

his termination or in the year in which a Change of Control occurs, (if the Key
Employee's employment terminated before the 16th day of a month, that month
shall be treated as a month in which he did not work)).
3.3. If the Key Employee (i) is terminated by the Trust for
Cause or (ii) voluntarily resigns from employment in all capacities with the
Trust before the fifth anniversary of the Award Date, then all rights of the Key
Employee to the Restricted Shares shall terminate and be forfeited.
3.4. In the event the Key Employee or his legal representative
fails to promptly tender to the Trust any required tax withholding amount in
