Vesting Schedule. Vested Award Shares will be issued and registered in your name as soon as practicable after the applicable Issue Date. Stock Units for Award Shares that do not vest shall be immediately cancelled.

3.2 Termination of Employment or Service. In the event that your employment or service with the Company or a Related Company terminates voluntarily or involuntarily for any reason prior to an Issue Date indicated in the Vesting Schedule, this award of Stock Units shall expire and be deemed forfeited with respect to all Award Shares not vested at the time of such termination. None of the unvested Award Shares shall be due or issued to you.

Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Transaction, the Vesting Schedule shall no longer apply and the Company shall issue all Award Shares not previously issued to you.

[The Company, in its sole discretion, may] or [The Company shall] permit you to satisfy such withholding obligations by reducing the number of Award Shares that would otherwise be issued under this Agreement by the number of Award Shares having a Fair
