A determination of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Committee”) as to any questions which may arise with respect to the interpretation of the provisions of this award shall be final.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS. It is understood and agreed that the award evidenced by this agreement is subject to the following terms and conditions:

1.          Vesting. The Shares shall vest according to the following schedule, provided that Holder remains continuously employed as an employee of the Corporation (except as outlined in Section 9(d) of this Agreement) from the date hereof through the applicable vesting date:

The Committee may accelerate any vesting date of the Shares, in its discretion, if it deems such acceleration to be desirable. Notwithstanding any contrary provision set forth herein, the vesting date of the Shares shall accelerate in full upon the earlier of: (a) a Change in Control (as defined in Section 8 of this Agreement), (b) the date on which that certain employment agreement dated [_________], as amended, between the Corporation and the Holder (the “Employment Agreement”) expires in accordance with its terms, or (c) pursuant to Section 9(d) of this Agreement.

2.          Regulatory Compliance and Listing. The issuance or delivery of any stock certificates representing Shares may be postponed by the Corporation for such period as may be required to comply with any applicable requirements under the federal securities laws, any applicable listing requirements of any national securities exchange, any rules, regulations or other requirements under any other law, or any rules or regulations applicable to the issuance or delivery of such Shares, and the Corporation shall not be obligated to deliver any such Shares to the Holder if delivery thereof would constitute a violation of any provision of any law or of any regulation of any governmental authority or any national securities exchange.

3.          Investment Representations and Related Matters. The Holder hereby represents that the Shares awarded pursuant to this agreement are being acquired for investment purposes and not for resale or with a view towards distribution thereof. The Holder acknowledges and agrees that any sale or distribution of Shares may be made only pursuant to either (a) a registration statement on an appropriate form under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”), which registration statement has become effective and is current with regard to the Shares being sold, or (b) a specific exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act that is confirmed in a favorable written opinion of counsel, in form and substance satisfactory to counsel for the Corporation, prior to any such sale or distribution. The Holder hereby consents to such action as the Corporation deems necessary or appropriate from time-to-time to prevent a violation of, or to perfect an exemption from, the registration requirements of the Securities Act or to implement the provisions of this agreement, including but not limited to placing restrictive legends on certificates evidencing Shares and delivering stop transfer instructions to the Corporation’s stock transfer agent.

4.          No Right To Continued Employment; Forfeiture. This agreement does not confer upon the Holder any right to continued employment by the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries or affiliated companies, nor shall it interfere in any way with the right to the Holder’s employer to terminate employment at any time for any reason or no reason.

5.          Construction. This agreement will be construed by and administered under the supervision of the Committee, and all determinations will be final and binding on the Holder.

6.          Dilution. Nothing in this agreement will restrict or limit in any way the right of the Committee to issue or sell stock of the Corporation (or securities convertible into stock of the Corporation) on such terms and conditions as it deems to be in the best interests of the Corporation, including, without limitation, stock and securities issued or sold in connection with mergers and acquisitions, stock issued or sold in connection with any stock option or similar plan, and stock issued or contributed to any stock bonus or employee stock ownership plan.

7.          Legends. The Shares shall bear a legend in substantially the following form:
