3. Vesting of Restricted Stock Units. Subject to Paragraphs 4 and 5 below, the restrictions and conditions of Paragraph 2 of this Agreement shall lapse on the vesting date or dates specified in the following schedule so long as the Grantee remains an employee of the Company on such Dates. If a series of vesting dates is specified, then the restrictions and conditions in Paragraph 2 shall lapse only with respect to the number of Restricted Stock Units specified as vested on such date. Vesting of the Restricted Stock Units issued pursuant to this Award will be triggered with respect to the number of Restricted Stock Units set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto upon (A) the Stock attaining certain price levels as set forth on Exhibit A based on the average closing price of the Stock on NASDAQ (or such other exchange or trading market as may be applicable from time to time) over any ten consecutive trading date period (each a “Stock Price Vesting Target”) and/or (B) the good faith determination by the Board of Directors of the Company or its executive committee that the Company has secured firm and commercially reasonable contracts representing $25 million of annual revenue and has established the supply chain needed to perform under such contracts (the “Revenue Vesting Target”). Once vesting of a specified number of Restricted Stock Units issued pursuant to this Award has been triggered by attaining a Stock Price Vesting Target or the Revenue Vesting Target, then twenty-five percent (25%) of the Restricted Stock Units triggered for vesting shall vest on the first anniversary of the date such Restricted Stock Units were triggered for vesting (each such date, the “Vesting Trigger Date”), twenty-five percent (25%) of the Restricted Stock Units triggered for vesting shall vest on the second anniversary of the Vesting Trigger Date and the remaining 50% of the Restricted Stock Units triggered for vesting shall vest on the third anniversary of the Vesting Trigger Date.

(a) Termination Due to Non-Renewal of Employment Agreement. If the Company chooses not to renew the Employment Agreement and the Grantee’s employment terminates upon or promptly after the expiration of the Agreement Term due to such non-renewal, then regardless of such termination and regardless of any terms of this Award to the contrary, the

vesting of all unvested Restricted Stock Units shall continue as scheduled; provided, however, that the Grantee executes a release of claims in accordance with the terms of the Employment Agreement and does not revoke such release of claims.

(b) Termination Due to Death or Disability. If the Grantee’s employment terminates by reason of his death or Disability, regardless of such termination and regardless of any terms of this Award to the contrary, the vesting of all unvested Restricted Stock Units shall continue as scheduled.

6. Issuance of Shares of Stock. Promptly following each vesting date, the Company shall issue to the Grantee the number of shares of Stock equal to the aggregate number of Restricted Stock Units that have vested pursuant to Paragraphs 3, 4 or 5 of this Agreement on such date (subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of any stock split, stock dividend, combination or other similar recapitalization with respect to such Stock).

7. Powers of the Committee. The Committee shall have the power and authority to accelerate at any time the exercisability or vesting of all or any Restricted Stock Units.

8. Tax Withholding. Promptly following each vesting date, the Grantee shall pay to the Company, elect to have shares of Stock withheld by the Company, or make other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrator for payment of any Federal, state, and local taxes required by law to be withheld on account of such vesting. In the absence of such payment or arrangement, the Company shall have the authority to cause the required minimum tax withholding obligation to be satisfied, in whole or in part, by withholding from shares of Stock to be issued to the Grantee a number of shares of Stock with an aggregate Fair Market Value that would satisfy the minimum withholding amount due.

9. Section 409A of the Code. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if at the time of the Grantee’s separation from service within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, the Company determines that Grantee is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, then to the extent any shares of Stock that the Grantee becomes entitled to under this Agreement on account of the Grantee’s separation from service would be considered deferred compensation otherwise subject to the 20 percent additional tax imposed pursuant to Section 409A(a) of the Code as a result of the application of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, such benefit shall not be payable and such benefit shall not be

provided until the date that is the earlier of (A) six months and one day after the Grantee’s separation from service, or (B) the Grantee’s death; provided, further, that if the vesting of any Restricted Stock Units shall continue as scheduled after the Grantee’s separation from service, such unvested Restricted Stock Units shall also be treated in the same manner such that any shares of Stock issuable upon the vesting of such Restricted Stock Units shall not be issued until the date that is the earlier of (C) six months and one day after the Grantee’s separation from service, or (D) the Grantee’s death.

10. No Obligation to Continue Employment. The Company is not obligated by or as a result of this Agreement to continue the Grantee in employment and this Agreement shall not interfere in any way with the right of the Company to terminate the employment of the Grantee at any time.

11. Integration. This Agreement and the Employment Agreement constitute the entire agreement between the parties with respect to this Award and supersede all prior agreements and discussions between the parties concerning such subject matter. In the event of any inconsistency between this Agreement and the Employment Agreement, the terms of the Employment Agreement shall prevail.

12. Data Privacy Consent. In order to administer this Agreement and to implement or structure future equity grants, the Company, its subsidiaries and affiliates and certain agents thereof (together, the “Relevant Companies”) may process any and all personal or professional data, including but not limited to Social Security or other identification number, home address and telephone number, date of birth and other information that is necessary or desirable for the administration of this Agreement (the “Relevant Information”). By entering into this Agreement, the Grantee (i) authorizes the Company to collect, process, register and transfer to the Relevant Companies all Relevant Information; (ii) waives any privacy rights the Grantee may have with respect to the Relevant Information; (iii) authorizes the Relevant Companies to store and transmit such information in electronic form; and (iv) authorizes the transfer of the Relevant Information to any jurisdiction in which the Relevant Companies consider appropriate. The Grantee shall have access to, and the right to change, the Relevant Information. Relevant Information will only be used in accordance with applicable law.
