2. Grant of Restricted Stock Units. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Company hereby grants to the Grantee an aggregate of                     Restricted Stock Units.

3. Vesting Schedule. No RSUs may be settled until they shall have vested. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement or in the Plan, 100% of the RSUs shall vest on the earlier of the first anniversary of the Grant Date or the date of the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders the first year following the Grant Date.

4. Settlement of RSUs.

(a) Each vested RSU entitles the Grantee to receive one share of Stock on the “Settlement Date,” which shall be the vesting date.

(b) Shares of Stock underlying the RSUs shall be issued and delivered to the Grantee in accordance with paragraph (a) and upon compliance to the satisfaction of the Committee with all requirements under applicable laws or regulations in connection with such issuance and with the requirements hereof and of the Plan. The determination of the Committee as to such compliance shall be final and binding on the Grantee. The shares of Stock delivered to the Grantee pursuant to this Section 4 shall be free and clear of all liens, fully paid and non-assessable.

5. Dividend Equivalents. If on any date the Company shall pay any cash dividend on shares of Stock of the Company, the number of RSUs credited to the Grantee shall, as of such date, be increased by an amount determined by the following formula:

W = (X multiplied by Y) divided by Z, where:

W = the number of additional RSUs to be credited to the Grantee on such dividend payment date;

X = the aggregate number of RSUs (whether vested or unvested) credited to the Grantee as of the record date of the dividend;

Y = the cash dividend per share amount; and

Z = the Fair Market Value per share of Stock (as determined under the Plan) on the dividend payment date.

7. Company; Grantee.

(a) The term “Company” as used in this Agreement with reference to service shall include the Company, its Subsidiaries and its Affiliates, as appropriate.

(b) Whenever the word “Grantee” is used in any provision of this Agreement under circumstances where the provision should logically be construed to apply to the beneficiaries, the executors, the administrators, or the person or persons to whom the RSUs may be transferred by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, the word “Grantee” shall be deemed to include such person or persons.

8. Non-Transferability. The RSUs are not transferable by the Grantee other than to a designated beneficiary upon death, by will or the laws of descent and distribution, or to a trust solely for the benefit of the Grantee or Grantee’s immediate family.

Grantee agrees not to remove from the premises of the Company, except in service of the Company in pursuit of the business of the Company or except as specifically permitted in writing by the Company, any document or other object containing or reflecting any such confidential or proprietary information. Grantee recognizes that all such information, whether developed by the Grantee or by someone else, will be the sole exclusive property of the Company. Upon termination of service, Grantee shall forthwith deliver to the Company all such confidential or proprietary information, including without limitation all lists of customers, pricing methods, financial structures, correspondence, accounts, records and any other documents, computer disks, computer programs, software, laptops, modems or property made or held by Grantee or under Grantee’s control in relation to the business or affairs of the Company or any of its divisions, subsidiaries or affiliates, and no copy of any such confidential or proprietary information shall be retained by him/her.

(c) Forfeiture for Violations. If the Grantee shall at any time violate the provisions of Section 9(a) or (b), the Grantee shall immediately forfeit his/her RSUs (whether vested or unvested) and any issuance of shares of Stock which occurs after (or within 6 months before) any such violation shall be void ab initio.

10. Rights as Stockholder. The Grantee or a transferee of the RSUs shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any share of Stock covered by the RSUs until the Grantee shall have become the holder of record of such share and no adjustment shall be made for dividends or distributions or other rights in respect of such share of Stock for which the record date is prior to the date upon which he/she shall become the holder of record thereof.

11. Effect of Change in Control.

(a) In the event of a Change in Control, notwithstanding any vesting schedule, 100% of the RSUs shall become immediately vested and the Company shall issue shares of Stock to the Grantee to settle the RSUs.

(b) The obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall be binding upon any successor corporation or organization resulting from the merger, consolidation or other reorganization of the Company, or upon any successor corporation or organization succeeding to substantially all of the assets and business of the Company.

12. Notice. Every notice or other communication relating to this Agreement shall be in writing, and shall be mailed to or delivered to the party for whom it is intended at such address as may from time to time be designated by it in a notice mailed or delivered to the other party as herein provided, provided that, unless and until some other address be so designated, all notices or communications by the Grantee to the Company shall be mailed or delivered to the Company at its principal executive office, and all notices or communications by the Company to the Grantee may be given to the Grantee personally or may be mailed to Grantee’s address as recorded in the records of the Company.

13. No Right to Continued Service. This Agreement shall not be construed as giving the Grantee the right to be retained in the service of the Company, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate. Further, the Company or an Affiliate may at any time dismiss the Grantee or discontinue any consulting relationship, free from any liability or any claim under this Agreement, except as otherwise expressly provided herein.
