The Award is made effective as of the 13th day of February, 2006. The Award is under the Company’s 2005 Stock Incentive Plan (“Incentive Plan”), and any shares of Stock earned and to be issued pursuant hereto shall be issued from and in accordance with the Incentive Plan.

1. Award. Grantee is hereby granted a Performance Share Award (the “Award”), which Award represents the right to earn and receive up to [SHARES] shares of Stock, subject to adjustment as provided in Sections 4 and 5 and the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

2. Performance Goals. The Company will issue shares of Stock to Grantee under this Agreement upon the Company’s attainment of certain predetermined milestones (each a “Milestone”) as set forth on an exhibit to the Stock Bonus Plan Summary, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A. The specific date that the Grantee will be deemed to have earned the shares of Stock with respect to a Milestone is described in the Stock Bonus Summary.

3. Form and Timing of Delivery of Certificate. Any Stock that Grantee shall have earned and become entitled to receive upon the attainment of any such Milestone shall be issued in accordance with the schedule on, and in the manner described in, the Stock Bonus Summary.

4. Termination of Employment. Upon the termination of the Grantee’s employment with the Company for any reason, Grantee shall be entitled to receive only those shares of Stock earned with respect to Milestones attained prior to the date of such termination but not yet issued in accordance with Exhibit A.

5. Adjustments. Neither the existence of the Bonus Plan nor this Award shall affect, in any way, the right or power of the Company to make or authorize: any or all adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations, or other changes in the Company’s capital structure or its business; or any merger or consolidation of the Company; or the dissolution or liquidation of the Company; or any sale or transfer of all or any part of its assets or business; or any corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise; all of which, and the resulting adjustments in, or impact on, the Award are more fully defined in the Incentive Plan.

6. Withholding and Deductions.

(a) Grantee is ultimately liable and responsible for all taxes owed by the Grantee in connection with the Award, regardless of any action the Company or any subsidiary takes with respect to any tax withholding obligations that arise in connection with the Award. Neither the Company nor any subsidiary makes any representation or undertaking regarding the treatment of any tax withholding in connection with the grant of the Award or the subsequent issuance or sale of Stock subject to the Award. The Company and its subsidiaries do not commit and are under no obligation to structure the Award to reduce or eliminate Grantee’s tax liability.

(b) Prior to any event in connection with the Award (e.g., issuance) that the Company determines may result in any tax withholding obligation, whether United States federal, state, local or non-U.S., including any employment tax obligation (the “Tax Withholding Obligation”), Grantee must arrange for the satisfaction of the minimum amount of such Tax Withholding Obligation in a manner acceptable to the Company. Unless Grantee determines to satisfy the Tax Withholding Obligation by some other means in accordance with subsection (c) below, Grantee’s acceptance of this Award constitutes the Grantee’s instruction and authorization to the Company and any brokerage firm determined acceptable to the Company for such purpose to sell on the Grantee’s behalf a whole number of shares of Stock from those shares issuable to the Grantee as the Company determines to be appropriate to generate cash proceeds sufficient to satisfy the minimum applicable Tax Withholding Obligation. Such shares of Stock will be sold on the day such Tax Withholding Obligation arises (e.g., an issuance date) or as soon thereafter as practicable. Grantee will be responsible for all broker’s fees and other costs of sale, and Grantee agrees to indemnify and hold the Company harmless from any losses, costs, damages, or expenses relating to any such sale. To the extent the proceeds of such sale exceed Grantee’s minimum Tax Withholding Obligation, the Company agrees to pay such excess in cash to Grantee. Grantee acknowledges that the Company or its designee is under no obligation to arrange for such sale at any particular price, and that the proceeds of any such sale may not be sufficient to satisfy Grantee’s minimum Tax Withholding Obligation. Accordingly, Grantee agrees to pay to Company or any subsidiary as soon as practicable, including through additional payroll withholding, any amount of the Tax Withholding Obligation that is not satisfied by the sale of Shares described above.

(c) At any time no later than the date immediately prior to the date the Company issues shares of Stock, Grantee may elect to satisfy the Grantee’s Tax Withholding Obligation with respect to such shares of Stock by delivering to the Company an amount that the Company determines is sufficient to satisfy the Tax Withholding Obligation by (x) wire transfer to such account as the Company may direct, (y) delivery of a certified check payable to the Company, or (z) such other means as specified from time to time by the Company.

7. Compliance with Exchange Act. If the Grantee is subject to Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the shares of Stock granted pursuant to this Award is intended to comply with all applicable conditions of Rule 16b-3 or its successors under the Exchange Act.

8. Non-Assignability. The Award and Grantee’s rights under this Agreement shall not be transferable other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. The Performance Share Award is otherwise non-assignable. The terms hereof shall be binding on the executors, administrators, heirs and successors of the Grantee.

9. Voting Rights. The Grantee will have no voting rights with respect to shares of Stock subject to the Performance Share Award not earned and issued to Grantee.

10. Tax Issues. Pursuant to Section 83 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 the value of the shares of Stock received by Grantee will be taxed as ordinary income as of the date of receipt by the Grantee.

11. Employment Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (a) neither the Bonus Plan, Incentive Plan nor this Agreement is intended to create an express or implied contract of employment for a specified term between the Grantee and the Company and (b) unless otherwise expressed or provided, in writing, by an authorized officer, the employment relationship between the Grantee and the Company shall be defined as “employment at will” wherein either party, without prior notice, may terminate the relationship with or without cause.

12. Regulatory Approvals and Listing. The Company shall not be required to issue any certificate for shares of Stock upon the attainment of any Milestone as set forth in this Agreement prior to satisfying any regulatory approval, registration, qualification or other requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Internal Revenue Service or any other governmental agency which the Committee, in its sole discretion, shall determine to be necessary or advisable.
