  6. SETTLEMENT OF THE AWARD.

6.1 Issuance of Shares of Stock. Subject to the provisions of Sections 6.3 and 6.4 below, the Company shall issue to the Participant on the Settlement Date with respect to each Vested Unit to be settled on such date one (1) Share. Shares issued in settlement of Units shall not be subject to any restriction on transfer other than any such restriction as may be required pursuant to Section 6.4, Section 7 or the Company’s written policy pertaining to transactions in the Company’s equity securities by Employees, directors and consultants of the Company or an Affiliate who may possess material, nonpublic information regarding the Company or its securities (Trading Compliance Policy).

Notwithstanding the provisions set forth in Section 6.1, in the event that a Settlement Date with respect to a Vesting Date would occur on a date on which a sale by the Participant of the Shares to be issued in settlement of the Units on such Settlement Date would violate the Trading Compliance Policy of the Company, such Settlement Date shall be postponed until the first to occur of (a) the next business day on which a sale by the Participant of such Shares would not violate the Trading Compliance Policy; and (b) March 15th of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Vesting Date occurred.

6.4 Restrictions on Grant of the Award and Issuance of Shares. The grant of the Award and issuance of Shares upon settlement of the Award shall be subject to compliance with all applicable requirements of federal, state or foreign law with respect to such securities. No Shares may be issued hereunder if the issuance of such Shares would constitute a violation of any applicable federal, state or foreign securities laws or other law or regulations or the requirements of any stock exchange or market system upon which the Shares may then be listed. The inability of the Company to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority, if any, deemed by the Company’s legal counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance of any Shares subject to the Award shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue such Shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained. As a condition to the settlement of the Award, the Company may require the Participant to satisfy any qualifications that may be necessary or appropriate, to evidence compliance with any applicable law or regulation and to make any representation or warranty with respect thereto as may be requested by the Company.

The Company shall have no obligation to deliver Shares until such tax withholding obligations have been satisfied by the Participant.

7.2 Assignment of Sale Proceeds; Payment of Tax Withholding by Check. Subject to compliance with applicable law and the Company’s Trading Compliance Policy, the Company may permit the Participant to satisfy the tax withholding obligations in accordance with procedures established by the Company providing for either (i) delivery by the Participant

to the Company or a broker approved by the Company of properly executed instructions, in a form approved by the Company, providing for the assignment to the Company of the proceeds of a sale with respect to some or all of the Shares being acquired upon settlement of Units, or (ii) payment by check. The Participant shall deliver written notice of any such permitted election to the Company on a form specified by the Company for this purpose at least thirty (30) days (or such other period established by the Company) prior to such Settlement Date. If the Participant elects payment by check, the Participant agrees to deliver a check for the full amount of the required tax withholding to the Company (or its Affiliates, if applicable) on or before the third business day following the Settlement Date. If the Participant elects to payment by check but fails to make such payment as required by the preceding sentence, the Company is hereby authorized, at its discretion, to satisfy the tax withholding obligations through any means authorized by this Section 7, including by directing a sale for the account of the Participant of some or all of the Shares being acquired upon settlement of Units from which the required taxes shall be withheld, by withholding from payroll and any other amounts payable to the Participant or by withholding Shares in accordance with Section 7.3.

7.3 Withholding in Shares. The Company may require the Participant to satisfy all or any portion of a Participating Company’s tax withholding obligations by deducting from the Shares otherwise deliverable to the Participant in settlement of the Award a number of whole Shares having a fair market value, as determined by the Company as of the date on which the tax withholding obligations arise, not in excess of the amount of such tax withholding obligations determined by the applicable minimum statutory withholding rates.

 

  8. EFFECT OF CORPORATE TRANSACTION ON AWARD.

In the event of a Corporate Transaction, the surviving, continuing, successor, or purchasing corporation or other business entity or parent thereof, as the case may be (the “Acquiror”), may, without the consent of the Participant, assume or continue the Company’s rights and obligations with respect to all or any portion of the outstanding Units or substitute for all or any portion of the outstanding Units substantially equivalent rights with respect to the Acquiror’s stock. For purposes of this Section, a Unit shall be deemed assumed if, following the Corporate Transaction, the Unit confers the right to receive, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement, the consideration (whether stock, cash, other securities or property or a combination thereof) to which a holder of a Share on the effective date of the Corporate Transaction was entitled; provided, however, that if such consideration is not solely common stock of the Acquiror, the Administrator may, with the consent of the Acquiror, provide for the consideration to be received upon settlement of the Unit to consist solely of common stock of the Acquiror equal in Fair Market Value to the per share consideration received by holders of Shares pursuant to the Corporate Transaction. Any Unit or portion thereof which is neither assumed nor continued by the Acquiror in connection with the Corporate Transaction shall terminate and cease to be outstanding effective as of the consummation of the Corporate Transaction.

 

  9. ADJUSTMENTS FOR CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE.

In the event of any change in the Shares described in Section 24(A) or 24(C) of the Plan, appropriate adjustments shall be made in the number of Units subject to the Award

and/or the number and kind of Shares to be issued in settlement of the Award, in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the Participant’s rights under the Award. Any fractional Share resulting from an adjustment pursuant to this Section shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number. Such adjustments shall be determined by the Administrator, and its determination shall be final, binding and conclusive.

 

  10. RIGHTS AS A STOCKHOLDER OR EMPLOYEE.

The Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any Shares which may be issued in settlement of this Award until the date of the issuance of a certificate for such Shares (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company). No adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date such certificate is issued, except as provided in Section 9. If the Participant is an Employee, the Participant understands and acknowledges that, except as otherwise provided in a separate, written employment agreement between the Company or an Affiliate and the Participant, the Participant’s employment is “at will” and is for no specified term. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue in the service of the Company or an Affiliate or interfere in any way with any right of the Company or an Affiliate to terminate the Participant’s service at any time.

 

  11. LEGENDS.

The Company may at any time place legends referencing any applicable federal, state or foreign securities law restrictions on all certificates representing Shares issued pursuant to this Agreement. The Participant shall, at the request of the Company, promptly present to the Company any and all certificates representing shares acquired pursuant to this Award in the possession of the Participant in order to carry out the provisions of this Section.
