Amount of Deferred Stock Units		Vesting Date

(c) Acceleration of Vesting Upon Termination. Notwithstanding any other term or provision of this Agreement, in the event that the Participant’s Continuous Service is terminated either by the Company without Good Cause or by the Participant for Good Reason during the eighteen (18) month period immediately following a Change in Control, all Non-Vested Deferred Stock Units subject to this Agreement shall become immediately vested as of the date of the termination of the Participant’s Continuous Service.

(e) Forfeiture. If the Participant’s Continuous Service is terminated for any reason, any Deferred Stock Units that are not Vested Deferred Stock Units, and that do not become Vested Deferred Stock Units pursuant to this Section 3, shall be forfeited immediately upon such termination of Continuous Service without any payment to the Participant. The Committee shall have the power and authority to enforce on behalf of the Company any rights of the Company under this Agreement in the event of the Participant’s forfeiture of Non-Vested Deferred Stock Units pursuant to this Section 3.

4. Settlement of Deferred Stock Units Award.

(a) Delivery of Stock. The Company shall deliver to the Participant one (1) share of Stock for each Vested Deferred Stock Unit subject of this Agreement (or, in the event there are no longer shares of Stock, in lieu of such Stock, the equivalent value of the stock or other securities of a successor or acquiring entity or cash to which the Participant would have been entitled to receive for such Stock). Shares of Stock (or the equivalent value of the stock or other securities of a successor or acquiring entity or cash) corresponding to the Vested Deferred Stock Units shall be delivered within thirty (30) days of the applicable Vesting Date of the Vested Deferred Stock Units; provided, however, that shares of Stock corresponding to the Change in Control Deferred Stock Units that vest on account of a Change in Control shall be delivered immediately prior to the consummation of the transaction constituting a Change in Control.

(b) Once shares of Stock are delivered with respect to Vested Deferred Stock Units, such Vested Deferred Stock Units shall terminate and the Company shall have no further obligation to deliver shares of Stock for such Vested Deferred Stock Units.

(c) Distribution to Specified Employees. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant is a “Specified Employee”, within the meaning under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the Treasury Regulations and other guidance promulgated or issued thereunder (“Section 409A”), then no distributions otherwise required to be made under this Agreement on account of the Participant’s “Separation from Service”, within the meaning under Section 409A, shall be made before the date that is six (6) months after the date of the Participant’s “Separation from Service” or, if earlier, the date of the Participant’s death if such deferral is required to comply with Section 409A.

5. Rights with Respect to Deferred Stock Units.

(a) No Rights as Shareholder until Delivery. The Participant shall not have any rights, benefits, or entitlements with respect to any Stock subject to this Agreement unless and until the Stock has been delivered to the Participant. On or after delivery of the Stock, the Participant shall have, with respect to the Stock delivered, all of the rights of an equity interest holder of the Company, including the right to vote the Stock and the right to receive all dividends, if any, as may be declared on the Stock from time to time.

(b) No Restriction on Certain Transactions. Notwithstanding any term or provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the existence of this Agreement, or of any outstanding Deferred Stock Units awarded hereunder, shall not affect in any manner the right, power, or authority of the Company or any Related Entity to make, authorize, or consummate: (i) any or all adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations, or other changes in the Company’s or any Related Entity’s capital structure or its business; (ii) any merger, consolidation, or similar transaction by or of the Company or any Related Entity; (iii) any offer, issue, or sale by the Company or any Related Entity of any capital stock of the Company or any Related Entity, including any equity or debt securities, or preferred or preference stock that would rank prior to or on parity with the shares of Stock represented by the Deferred Stock Units and/or that would include, have or possess other rights, benefits, and/or preferences superior to those that such shares of Stock includes, has or possesses, or any warrants, options, or rights with respect to any of the foregoing; (iv) the dissolution or liquidation of the Company or any Related Entity; (v) any sale, transfer, or assignment of all or any part of the stock, assets, or business of the Company or any Related Entity; or (vi) any other corporate transaction, act, or proceeding (whether of a similar character or otherwise).

6. Adjustments in Case of Certain Corporate Transactions. In the event of any reorganization, merger, consolidation, or other form of corporate transaction that does not constitute a Change in Control in which the Company does not survive, or that does not constitute a Change in Control in which the shares of Stock are exchanged for or converted into securities issued by another entity, then the successor or acquiring entity or an affiliate thereof may, with the consent of the Committee, assume this Award or substitute an equivalent award. If the successor or acquiring entity or an affiliate thereof does not cause such an assumption or substitution, then immediately prior to and contingent on the consummation of a corporate transaction as described in this Section 6, the Company shall treat such corporate transaction as a Change in Control for purposes of this Agreement, including accelerating vesting and settlement of any Non-Vested Deferred Stock Units pursuant to Sections 3(b) and 4(a) hereof.

7. Tax Provisions.

(a) Tax Consequences. The Participant has reviewed with the Participant’s own tax advisors the federal, state, local, and foreign tax consequences of this investment and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Participant is relying solely on such advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company or any of its agents. The Participant understands that the Participant (and not the Company) shall be responsible for any tax liability that may arise as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

7

(b) Withholding Obligations. At the time the Award is granted, or at any time thereafter as requested by the Company, the Participant hereby authorizes withholding from payroll and any other amounts payable to the Participant, including the shares of Stock deliverable pursuant to this Award, and otherwise agrees to make adequate provision for, any sums required to satisfy the federal, state, local, and foreign tax withholding obligations of the Company or a Related Entity, if any, which arise in connection with the Award.

The Company, in compliance with any applicable legal conditions or restrictions, shall withhold from fully vested shares of Stock otherwise deliverable to the Participant upon the vesting of the Award a number of whole shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value, as determined by the Company as of the date the Participant recognizes income with respect to those shares of Stock, not in excess of the amount of tax required to be withheld by law (or such lower amount as may be necessary to avoid adverse financial accounting treatment). Any adverse consequences to the Participant arising in connection with such Stock withholding procedure shall be the Participant’s sole responsibility.

Unless the tax withholding obligations of the Company or any Related Entity are satisfied, the Company shall have no obligation to issue a certificate for such shares of Stock.

8. Consideration. With respect to the value of the shares of Stock to be delivered pursuant to the Award, such shares of Stock are granted in consideration for the services the Participant shall provide to the Company during the Participant’s Continuous Service.

9. Transferability. The Deferred Stock Units granted under this Agreement are not transferable otherwise than by will or under the applicable laws of descent and distribution. In addition, the Deferred Stock Units shall not be assigned, negotiated, pledged, or hypothecated in any way (whether by operation of law or otherwise), and the Deferred Stock Units shall not be subject to execution, attachment, or similar process.

10. General Provisions.

(a) Employment At Will. Nothing in this Agreement or in the Plan shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue in the service of the Company or its Related Entities for any period of specific duration or interfere with or otherwise restrict in any way the rights of the Company (or any Related Entity employing or retaining the Participant) or of the Participant, which rights are hereby expressly reserved by each, to terminate the Participant’s service at any time for any reason, with or without cause.

(b) Notices. Any notice required to be given under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed effective upon personal delivery or upon deposit in the U.S. mail, registered or certified, postage prepaid and properly addressed to the party entitled to such notice at the address indicated below such party’s signature line on this Agreement or at such other address as such party may designate by ten (10) days’ advance written notice under this section to all other parties to this Agreement.

8

(c) No Limit on Other Compensation Arrangements. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall preclude the Company from adopting or continuing in effect other or additional compensation arrangements, and those arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases.

(d) Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is or becomes or is deemed to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction or would disqualify this Agreement or the Award under any applicable law, that provision shall be construed or deemed amended to conform to applicable law (or if that provision cannot be so construed or deemed amended without materially altering the purpose or intent of this Agreement and the Award, that provision shall be stricken as to that jurisdiction and the remainder of this Agreement and the Award shall remain in full force and effect).

(e) No Trust or Fund Created. Neither this Agreement nor the grant of the Award shall create or be construed to create a trust or separate fund of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between the Company and the Participant or any other person. The Deferred Stock Units subject to this Agreement represent only the Company’s unfunded and unsecured promise to issue Stock to the Participant in the future. To the extent that the Participant or any other person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company pursuant to this Agreement, that right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company.

(f) Cancellation of Award. If any Deferred Stock Units subject to this Agreement are forfeited, then from and after such time, the person from whom such Deferred Stock Units are forfeited shall no longer have any rights to such Deferred Stock Units or the corresponding shares of Stock. Such Deferred Stock Units shall be deemed forfeited in accordance with the applicable provisions hereof.

(g) Participant Undertaking. The Participant hereby agrees to take whatever additional action and execute whatever additional documents the Company may deem necessary or advisable in order to carry out or effect one or more of the obligations or restrictions imposed on either the Participant or the shares of Stock deliverable pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement.

(h) Amendment, Modification, and Entire Agreement. No provision of this Agreement may be modified, waived, or discharged unless that waiver, modification, or discharge is agreed to in writing and signed by the Participant and the Committee. This Agreement constitutes the entire contract between the parties hereto with regard to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement is made pursuant to the provisions of the Plan and shall in all respects be construed in conformity with the terms of the Plan. In the event of a conflict between the Plan and this Agreement, the terms of the Plan shall govern. The Participant further acknowledges that as of the Grant Date, this Agreement and the Plan set forth the entire understanding between the Participant and the Company regarding the acquisition of Stock pursuant to this Award and supersede all prior oral and written agreements on that subject with the exception of awards from the Company previously granted and delivered to the Participant. No agreements or representations, oral or otherwise, express or implied, with respect to the subject matter hereof have been made by either party which are not set forth expressly in this Agreement.

9

(i) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the state of Delaware without regard to the conflict-of-laws rules thereof or of any other jurisdiction.

The provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the Company and its successors and assigns and upon the Participant, the Participant’s assigns and the legal representatives, heirs, and legatees of Participant’s estate, whether or not any such person shall have become a party to this Agreement and have agreed in writing to join herein and be bound by the terms hereof. The Company may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement, including, but not limited to, the forfeiture provision of Section 3(e) hereof to any person or entity selected by the Committee.

(l) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

(m) Headings. Headings are given to the Sections and Subsections of this Agreement solely as a convenience to facilitate reference. The headings shall not be deemed in any way material or relevant to the construction or interpretation of this Agreement or any provision thereof.

(n) Non-Waiver of Breach. The waiver by any party hereto of the other party’s prompt and complete performance, or breach or violation, of any term or provision of this Agreement shall be effected solely in a writing signed by such party, and shall not operate nor be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach or violation, and the waiver by any party hereto to exercise any right or remedy which he, she, or it may possess shall not operate nor be construed as the waiver of such right or remedy by such party, or as a bar to the exercise of such right or remedy by such party, upon the occurrence of any subsequent breach or violation.

(o) Complete Agreement. This Agreement (together with those agreements and documents expressly referred to herein, for the purposes referred to herein) embody the complete and entire agreement and understanding between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersede any and all prior promises, assurances, commitments, agreements, undertakings or representations, whether oral, written, electronic or otherwise, and whether express or implied, which may relate to the subject matter hereof in any way. No provision of any employment, consulting, change in control, or other agreement, policy, practice, or arrangement, whether written or unwritten, as may be amended or modified from time to time, shall apply to or in any way modify or amend this Agreement.

(b) No Representations as to Section 409A Compliance.

(c) No Acceleration of Payments. Neither the Company nor the Participant, individually or in combination, may accelerate any payment or benefit that is subject to Section 409A, except in compliance with Section 409A and the provisions of this Agreement, and no amount that is subject to Section 409A shall be paid prior to the earliest date on which it may be paid without violating Section 409A.

(d) Treatment of Each Installment as a Separate Payment. For purposes of applying the provisions of Section 409A to this Agreement, each separately identified amount to which the Participant is entitled under this Agreement shall be treated as a separate payment.
