BANYAN SYSTEMS INCORPORATED
EXECUTIVE OFFICER RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT
GRANTED UNDER 1992 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN
This Restricted Stock Agreement (this "Agreement") is made this 16th day of
October, 1998, between Banyan Systems Incorporated, a Massachusetts corporation
(the "Company"), and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ (the "Participant").
For valuable consideration, receipt of which is acknowledged, the Company
and the Participant (each, a "Party" and together, the "Parties") each agree as
follows:
1. Purchase of Shares.
------------------
The Company shall issue and sell to the Participant, and the Participant
shall purchase from the Company, subject to the terms and conditions set forth
in this Agreement and in the Company's 1992 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended
(the "Plan"), 34,000 shares (the "Shares") of common stock, $0.01 par value per
share, of the Company ("Common Stock"), at a purchase price of $0.01 per share.
The aggregate purchase price for the Shares shall be paid by the Participant by
check payable to the order of the Company or such other method as may be
acceptable to the Company. Upon receipt by the Company of payment for the
Shares, the Company shall issue to the Participant one or more certificates in
the name of the Participant for that number of Shares purchased by the
Participant. The Participant agrees that the Shares shall be subject to the
Purchase Option set forth in Section 2 of this Agreement and the restrictions on
transfer set forth in Section 4 of this Agreement.
2. Purchase Option.
---------------
(a) In the event that the Participant ceases to be employed by the Company
for any reason or no reason, with or without cause, or the Participant announces
his intention to terminate his employment with the Company, prior to October 16,
2001, the Company shall have the right and option (the "Purchase Option") to
purchase from the Participant, for a sum of $0.01 per share (the "Option
Price"), any or all of the Unvested Shares (as defined below).
"Unvested Shares" means the total number of Shares multiplied by the
Applicable Percentage at the time the Purchase Option becomes exercisable by the
Company. The "Applicable Percentage" shall be (i) 100% during the 24-month
period ending October 16, 2000, (ii) 60% during the 12-month period ending
October 16, 2001 and (iii) zero on or after October 16, 2001. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Applicable Percentage referred to in clauses (i) and (ii)
above shall each be reduced by one-fifth of 100% and one-third of 60% (e.g.,
from 100% to 80%, from 60% to 40% and from 20% to zero), respectively, in
accordance with each of the following: (A) on October 16, 1999, if, at any time
after November 30, 1998, the 30 Day Fair Market Value (as defined below) per
share of Common Stock equals or exceeds $6.00, or, on the first such date after
October 16, 1999 when the 30 Day Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock
equals or exceeds $6.00, (B) on April 16, 2000, if, at any time after November
30, 1998, the 30 Day Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock equals or
exceeds $9.00, or, on the first such date after April 16, 2000 when the 30 Day
Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock equals or exceeds $9.00 and (C) on
April 16, 2000, if, any time after November 30, 1998, the 30 Day Fair Market
Value per share of Common Stock equals or exceeds $12.00, or, on the first such
date after April 16, 2000 when the 30 Day Fair Market Value per share of Common
Stock equals or exceeds $12.00.
The "30 Day Fair Market Value" per share of Common Stock shall be
determined as follows:
(I) If the Common Stock is listed on a national securities exchange,
the Nasdaq National Market, the Nasdaq system, or another nationally recognized
exchange or trading system as of the date of calculation, the 30 Day Fair Market
Value per share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be the arithmetic average of
the last reported sale price per share of Common Stock thereon for the 30
trading days ended on the trading day immediately preceding the date of
calculation; or, if no such price is reported for each trading day in such 30-
trading day period, the 30 Day Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock shall
be determined pursuant to the following clause (II).
(II) If the Common Stock is not listed on a national securities
exchange, the Nasdaq National Market, the Nasdaq system or another nationally
recognized exchange or trading system as of the date of calculation or for each
trading day in such 30-trading day period, the 30 Day Fair Market Value per
share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be the amount most recently determined
by the Board of Directors to represent the fair market value per share of the
Common Stock (including without limitation a determination for purposes of
granting Common Stock options or issuing Common Stock under an employee benefit
plan of the Company); or, if the Board of Directors has not made such a
determination within the two-month period prior to the date of calculation, then
the 30 Day Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock shall be the amount
determined by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion.
-2-
(b) In the event that the Participant's employment with the Company is
terminated by reason of death or disability, the number of the Shares for which
the Purchase Option becomes exercisable shall be fifty percent (50%) of the
number of Unvested Shares for which the Purchase Option would otherwise become
exercisable. For this purpose, "disability" shall mean the Participant's absence
from the full-time performance of the Participants's duties with the Company for
180 consecutive calendar days as a result of incapacity due to mental or
physical illness which is determined to be total and permanent by a physician
selected by the Company or its insurers and reasonably acceptable to the
Participant or the Participant's legal representative.
(c) For purposes of this Agreement, employment with the Company shall
include employment with a parent or subsidiary of the Company.
3. Exercise of Purchase Option and Closing.
---------------------------------------
(a) The Company may exercise the Purchase Option by delivering or mailing
to the Participant (or the Participant's estate), within 60 days after the
termination of the employment of the Participant with the Company, a written
notice of exercise of the Purchase Option. Such notice shall specify the number
of Shares to be purchased. If and to the extent the Purchase Option is not so
exercised by the giving of such a notice within such 60-day period, the Purchase
Option shall automatically expire and terminate effective upon the expiration of
such 60-day period.
(b) Within 10 days after delivery to the Participant of the Company's
notice of the exercise of the Purchase Option pursuant to subsection (a) above,
the Participant (or the Participant's estate) shall, pursuant to the provisions
of the Joint Escrow Instructions referred to in Section 8, tender to the Company
at its principal offices the certificate or certificates representing the Shares
which the Company has elected to purchase in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement, duly endorsed in blank or with duly endorsed stock powers attached
thereto, all in form suitable for the transfer of such Shares to the Company.
Promptly following its receipt of such certificate or certificates, the Company
shall pay to the Participant the aggregate Option Price for such Shares
(provided that any delay in making such payment shall not invalidate the
Company's exercise of the Purchase Option with respect to such Shares).
(c) After the time at which any Shares are required to be delivered to the
Company for transfer to the Company pursuant to subsection (b) above, the
Company shall not pay any dividend to the Participant on account of such Shares
or permit the Participant to exercise any of the privileges or rights of a
stockholder with respect to such Shares, but shall, in so far as permitted by
law, treat the Company as the owner of such Shares.
-3-
(d) The Option Price may be payable, at the option of the Company, in
cancellation of all or a portion of any outstanding indebtedness of the
Participant to the Company or in cash (by check) or both.
(e) The Company shall not purchase any fraction of a Share upon exercise
of the Purchase Option, and any fraction of a Share resulting from a computation
made pursuant to Section 2 of this Agreement shall be rounded to the nearest
whole Share (with any one-half Share being rounded upward).
(f) The Company may assign its Purchase Option to one or more persons or
entities.
4. Restrictions on Transfer.

The Participant shall not sell, assign, transfer, pledge, hypothecate or
otherwise dispose of, by operation of law or otherwise (collectively "transfer")
any Shares, or any interest therein, that are subject to the Purchase Option,

any spouse, child or grandchild, or to a trust for their benefit, provided that
--------
such Shares shall remain subject to this Agreement (including without limitation
the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section 4 and the Purchase
Option), and such permitted transferee shall, as a condition to such transfer,
deliver to the Company a written instrument confirming that such transferee
shall be bound by all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement; or
5. Effect of Prohibited Transfer.
-----------------------------
The Company shall not be required (a) to transfer on its books any of the
Shares which shall have been sold or transferred in violation of any of the
