the restrictions, terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. The grant
date of this award of Restricted Stock is November 19, 1999 ("Grant Date").

employed by the Company, the Grantee shall become vested in the Restricted Stock
as follows: 10% of the Shares of Restricted Stock (rounded down to the next
whole share) shall vest on each anniversary (each such date shall be a "Vesting
Date") of the Grant Date, such that on November 19, 2009 ("Final Vesting Date")
all of the Shares of Restricted Stock shall be fully vested. On each Vesting
Date, Grantee shall own the Vested Shares of Restricted Stock free and clear of
all restrictions imposed by this Agreement (except those imposed by Section 3.4
below). The Company shall deliver a certificate(s) for the Vested Shares of
Restricted Stock to Grantee as soon as practical after each Vesting Date. For
purposes of this Agreement, employment with any

while actively employed by the Company, (ii) Grantee has his employment
terminated by reason of Disability, (iii) Grantee's employment is terminated by
the Company other than for Cause (as defined in Section 2(e) of the Plan),or

of the date of Grantee's death, Disability or termination of employment. The
Company shall deliver certificate(s) for the Restricted Stock, free and clear of
any restrictions imposed by this Agreement (except for Section 3.4) to Grantee
(or, in the event of death, his surviving spouse or, if none, to his estate) as
soon as practical after his date of death or termination for Disability,
termination without Cause, or termination for Good Reason. If Grantee terminates
his employment without Good Reason or if the Company terminates Grantee for
Cause, the Restricted Stock shall cease to vest further and Grantee shall only
be entitled to the Restricted Stock that is vested as of his date of
termination.
2.3 Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Agreement, in the
event of a Change in Control prior to Grantee's Final Vesting Date, the
Restricted Stock shall become fully vested and nonforfeitable as of the date of
the Change in Control. On the date of the Change in Control, the Company shall
deliver to Grantee a certificate(s) for the Restricted Stock, free and clear of
any restrictions imposed by this Agreement.
2.4 The Restricted Stock may not be sold, assigned, transferred,
pledged or otherwise encumbered prior to the date Grantee becomes vested in the
Restricted Stock.

with his positions, duties, responsibilities and status with the
Company, its subsidiaries and affiliates immediately prior to a Change
in Control, or a change in his reporting responsibilities, titles or
offices which were in effect immediately prior to a Change in Control,
or any removal of him from or any failure to re-elect him to any of
such positions, except in connection with the termination of his
employment by the Company for Cause or as a result of his death or
Disability or termination by him other than for Good Reason;

as in effect on the date hereof or as the same may be increased from
time to time, or failure to give him annual salary increases consistent

Executive bonuses comparable to the amount of bonuses given to him
prior to the Change in Control;

relocations, the failure by the Company to pay (or reimburse him for)
all reasonable moving expenses incurred by him; or

Company for any such taxes required to be withheld and may withhold any
distribution in whole or in part until the Company is so reimbursed. In lieu
thereof, the Company shall have the right to withhold from any other cash
