Agreement

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained, you and the Company hereby agree as follows:

﻿

1.Grant of Award. The Company hereby grants to you, and you hereby accept, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and in this Agreement, the number of RSUs indicated above, effective as of the Grant D ate indicated above. Each RSU represents the right to receive one share of common s tock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (“Stock”), subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and in this Agreement. The shares of Stock that are issuable upon vesting of the RSUs granted to you pursuant to this Agreement are referred to in this Agreement as the “Shares.” Subject to the provisions of Section 2 hereof, this Award of RSUs is irrevocable and is intended to conform in all respects with the Plan.

﻿

2.Immediate Vesting. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, your RSUs will vest in full and become nonforfeitable on the Grant Date indicated above.

﻿

3. Distribution of Shares.

﻿

(a)Distribution Upon Vesting. The Company will distribute to you (or to your estate in the event of your death) the Shares of Stock represented by the RSUs as soon as administratively practicable after vesting, but in no event later than the fifteenth day of the third calendar month beginning after the calendar year in which such RSUs shall have become vested.

﻿

(b)Compliance with Law. The Plan, the granting of this RSU, and any obligations of the Company under the Plan, shall be subject to all applicable federal, state and foreign country laws, rules and regulations, and to such approvals by any regulatory or governmental agency as may be required, and to any rules or regulations of any exchange on which the Stock is listed. The Company, in its discretion, may postpone the granting and vesting of this RSU, the issuance or delivery of Stock under this RSU or any other action permitted under the Plan to permit the Company, with reasonable diligence, to complete such stock exchange listing or registration or qualification of such Stock or other required action under any federal, state or foreign country law, rule or regulation and may require you to make such representations and furnish such information as it may consider appropriate in connection with the issuance or delivery of Stock in compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations. The Company shall not be obligated by virtue of any provision of the Plan to recognize the vesting of this RSU or to otherwise sell or issue Stock in violation of any such laws, rules or regulations.

﻿

4.Deferral Elections. Y ou may elect to defer the receipt of the Shares that otherwise would be issuable upon vesting of this RSU by submitting to the Company a deferral election, in the form provided by the Company, prior to the start of the calendar year in which the RSU is granted. If you submit a deferral election form, you represent that you understand the effect of such deferral under relevant federal, state and local tax and social security laws, including but not limited to the fact that social security contributions may be due upon v esting notwithstanding the deferral election, and the fact that the deferral may need to qualify as a “change in the time and form of distribution” under Code § 409(a)(4)(C) in order to avoid immediate taxation of the RSUs and a 20% addition to tax and premium interest tax.

﻿

5.Rights as a S hare holder. Except as set forth in the Plan, neither you nor any person claiming under or through you shall be, or have any of the rights or privileges of, a sharehold er of the Company (e.g., you have no right to vote or receive dividends) in respect of the Shares issuable pursuant to this Award unless and until your Shares shall have been issued; provided that dividends and other distributions paid on the Stock shall be credited to you in an amount equal to the amount that would have been payable or distributable to you had the Shares of Stock underlying the RSUs been issued and outstanding as of the record date for such dividend or distribution, to be held by the Company on your behalf and made subject to the same vesting conditions applicable to the underlying RSUs. At the time of delivery of the underlying S hares of Stock, the Company shall distribute to you in cash all dividends or distributions previously paid with respect to the RSUs that vested hereunder without interest. In the event you forfeit RSUs, you also shall immediately forfeit any dividends or distributions held by the

2

Company that are attributable to the Stock underlying such forfeited RSUs.

﻿

6.Tax Withholding. Any provision of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company may take such steps as it deems necessary or desirable for the withholding of any taxes that it is required by law or regulation of any governmental authority, federal, state or local, domestic or foreign, to withhold in connection with vesting of any RSU or issuance of any of the Shares subject thereto.

﻿

7.Transfer of RSUs. The RSUs granted herein are not transferable except in accordance with the provisions of the Plan.

﻿

8.Plan Incorporated.

﻿

9. Adjustment of RSUs. The number of RSUs subject to this Award will automatically be adjusted in accordance with Section 9 of the Plan to prevent accretion, or to protect against dilution, in the event of a change to the Common Stock resulting from a recapitalization, stock split, consolidation, spin-off, reorganization, or liquidation or other similar transactions.

﻿

10.Miscellaneous.

(a)Notices. Any notice to be given to the Company under the terms of this Agreement shall be addressed to the Company at its principal executive offices, and any notice to be given to you shall be addressed to you at the address set forth on the attached Notice of Grant, or at such other address for a party as such party may hereafter designate in writing to the other.

﻿

(h)No Waiver.

﻿

(i)Relief. In addition to all other rights or remedies available at law or in equity, the Company shall be entitled to injunctive and other equitable relief to prevent or enjoin any violation of the provisions of this Agreement.
