This AWARD AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is entered into as of the Award Date set forth below between ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇, INC., an Ohio corporation (the “Company”), and ____________ (“Employee”).

     A. The Company from time to time makes Share Unit Awards to Employees under the Company’s 2004 Incentive Stock Plan As Amended (the “2004 Plan”), a copy of which has been provided to Employee and is incorporated herein by this reference;

     B. For the purpose of encouraging Employee to have a proprietary interest in the Company through stock ownership, to continue in the service of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and to render superior performance during the period of employment, the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company has determined that Share Units should be awarded under the 2004 Plan to Employee; and

     C. Any capitalized term used herein that is not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to it in the 2004 Plan.

NOW, THEREFORE, THE COMPANY AND EMPLOYEE INTENDING TO BE LEGALLY BOUND HEREBY AGREE AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 1. RESTRICTED SHARE UNIT AWARD.

1.1 Grant of Restricted Share Units.

(a) The Company hereby grants to Employee on ____________, 2009 (the “Award Date”), subject to the terms and conditions of the 2004 Plan and this Agreement, ______________________ Share Units (the “Restricted Share Units”), as a Share Unit Award under the 2004 Plan. Each Restricted Share Unit represents the contingent right to receive one Common Share of the Company (“Common Share”) and shall at all times be equivalent to one Common Share. The Restricted Share Units shall be credited in a book entry account established for Employee until payment in accordance with Section 1.4 hereof.

(b) From and after the Award Date and until the earlier of (i) the time when the Restricted Share Units are paid in accordance with Section 1.4 hereof or (ii) the time when Employee’s right to payment of the Restricted Share Units is forfeited in accordance with Section 1.5(c) hereof, on the date that the Company pays a cash dividend (if any) to holders of Common Shares generally, Employee shall be entitled to a cash amount equal to the product of (i) the dollar amount of the cash dividend paid per Common Share on such date and (ii) the total number of unpaid Restricted Share Units credited to Employee as of such date (“Dividend Equivalent”). The

Dividend Equivalent shall be paid to Employee at the same time that the related dividend is paid to the holders of Common Shares. Dividend Equivalents will be subject to any required withholding for federal, state, local, foreign or other taxes.

1.2 Restrictions.

(a) The Restricted Share Units may not be sold, transferred, assigned or subject to any encumbrance, pledge or charge or disposed of for any reason.

(b) All unvested Restricted Share Units shall be forfeited and all rights of Employee with respect to such units shall terminate in their entirety on the terms and conditions set forth in Section 1.5.

(c) Any attempt to dispose of unvested Restricted Share Units or any interest in such units in any manner contrary to the restrictions set forth in the 2004 Plan or in this Agreement shall be void and of no effect.

(d) Employee shall not possess any incidents of ownership (including, without limitation, dividend and voting rights) in the Common Shares underlying the Restricted Share Units until such Common Shares have been delivered to Employee in accordance with Section 1.4. The obligations of the Company under this Agreement will be merely that of an unfunded and unsecured promise of the Company to deliver Common Shares in the future in accordance with the terms, and subject to the conditions, of this Agreement, and the rights of Employee will be no greater than that of an unsecured general creditor. No assets of the Company will be held or set aside as security for the obligations of the Company under this Agreement.

1.3 Vesting.

(a) Subject to the provisions contained in this Section 1.3, the restrictions set forth in Section 1.2 with respect to the Restricted Share Units shall apply during the restricted period and expire on the Vesting Dates set forth below (each, a “Vesting Date”) (with any fractional units rounded down to the next whole number) and the restricted periods and applicable Vesting Dates shall be as follows:
