DiSU Award Agreement

Terms and Conditions

Grant to:  [·]

Section 1.  Grant of Award.  Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement, the Company hereby grants this Award to the Participant on the Grant Date on the terms set forth on the cover page of this Agreement, as more fully described in this Attachment A.  This Award is granted under the Plan, which is incorporated herein by this reference and made a part of this Agreement.

Section 2.  Timing of Vesting and Delivery.

(a)                                 Vesting.  This Award is 100% vested as of the Grant Date.

(b)                                 Delivery of Shares.  The Company shall deliver the DiSU Shares to the Participant on the date the Participant’s Continuous Service terminates for any reason; provided, however, that if a Change of Control occurs prior to such termination, the Company shall deliver the DiSU Shares to the Participant on the date of the Change of Control.

(c)                                  Share Cash-Out.  Upon delivery of the DiSU Shares pursuant to Section 2(b), if authorized by the Board, the Participant may elect to have withheld from the DiSU Shares that would otherwise be delivered to such Participant a number of DiSU Shares with an aggregate fair market value equal to such Participant’s tax liability as a result of such share delivery (the “Withheld DiSU Share Value”) and receive, in lieu of the withheld DiSU Shares, cash in the amount of the Withheld DiSU Share Value.

Section 3.  Dividend Equivalents.  If a dividend is paid on Shares during the period commencing on the Grant Date and ending on the date on which the DiSU Shares are delivered to the Participant, the Participant shall be eligible to receive an amount equal to the amount of the dividend that the Participant would have received had the DiSU Shares been delivered to the Participant as of the time at which such dividend is paid.  Such amount shall be paid to the Participant on the date on which the DiSU Shares are delivered to the Participant in the same form (cash, Shares or other property) in which such dividend is paid to holders of Shares generally.  Any Shares that the Participant is eligible to receive pursuant to this Section 3 are referred to herein as “Dividend Shares.”

Section 4.  Additional Terms and Conditions.

(a)                                 Withholding of Taxes.  If the DiSU Shares are not publicly traded as of the DSU Share delivery date described in Section 2(b) above, then the

Committee may determine that the Company shall deduct applicable taxes from this Award and withhold, at the time of delivery of DiSU Shares, an appropriate number of shares of DiSU Shares for payment of required withholding taxes or to take such other action as may be necessary in the opinion of the Company to satisfy all obligations for withholding of such taxes. Such DiSU Shares to be withheld shall be valued based on their fair market value when the tax withholding is required to be made.

(b)                                 Issuance of Shares.  Upon delivery of the DiSU Shares and, if applicable, any Dividend Shares, such Shares shall be evidenced by book-entry registration; provided, however, that the Committee may determine that such Shares shall be evidenced in such other manner as it deems appropriate, including the issuance of a stock certificate or certificates.

(c)                                  Voting Rights.  The Participant shall not have voting rights with respect to the DiSU Shares or, if applicable, any Dividend Shares unless and until such Shares are delivered to the Participant.

(d)                                 Transferability.  Unless and until the DiSU Shares and, if applicable, any Dividend Shares are delivered to the Participant, such Shares shall not be assigned, sold, transferred or otherwise be subject to alienation by the Participant, except as pursuant to Section 13 of the Plan.
