1.Terms of Award. Subject to the following Restricted Stock Unit Award Terms, the Participant has been granted the right to receive shares of Stock of the Company (“Units”) as of the Delivery Date. Each “Unit” represents the right to receive one share of Stock. The following words and phrases used in these Restricted Stock Unit Award Terms shall have the meanings set forth in this paragraph 1:

(a)The "Participant" is the individual recipient of the Restricted Stock Unit Award on the specified Grant Date.

(b)The "Grant Date" is [Insert the date].

(c)The number of "Units" shall be that number of Units awarded to the Participant on the Grant Date as reflected in the corporate records and shown in the Record-Keeping System in the Participant’s individual account records.

(d)The “Delivery Date” shall be end of the Restricted Period with respect to the applicable Units. However, notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the following shall apply in determining the Delivery Date:

(i)The occurrence of a Change in Control Date of Termination shall be disregarded for purposes of determining the Delivery Date of such Installments.

(ii)The occurrence of a Long-Term Disability shall be disregarded for purposes of determining the Delivery Date of such Units; provided that this sentence shall not affect the vesting of the Units upon the occurrence of a Long-Term Disability in accordance with subparagraph 2(b).

(e)Other words and phrases used in these Restricted Stock Unit Award Terms are defined pursuant to paragraph 9 or elsewhere in these Restricted Stock Unit Award Terms.

2.Restricted Period. Subject to the limitations of these Restricted Stock Unit Award Terms, the "Restricted Period" for each Installment of Units shall begin on the Grant Date and end as described in the following schedule (the “Vesting Schedule”) (but only if the Date of Termination has not occurred before end of the Restricted Period):

VESTING SCHEDULE
INSTALLMENT	RESTRICTED PERIOD WILL END ON:
¼ of Restricted Stock Units	One year anniversary of the Grant Date
¼ of Restricted Stock Units	Two year anniversary of the Grant Date
¼ of Restricted Stock Units	Three year anniversary of the Grant Date
¼ of Restricted Stock Units	Four year anniversary of the Grant Date

The Restricted Period shall end prior to the date specified in the foregoing Vesting Schedule to the extent set forth below, with the exception of subparagraphs (c) and (e):

(a)For Installments as to which the Restricted Period has not ended prior to the Date of Termination, the Restricted Period for such Installments shall end upon the Participant’s Date of Termination, if the Date of Termination occurs by reason of the Participant’s death.

(b)For Installments as to which the Restricted Period has not ended prior to the Date of Termination, the Restricted Period for such Installments shall end upon the Participant’s Date of Termination, if the Date of Termination occurs by reason of the Participant’s Long-Term Disability.

(c)For Installments as to which the Restricted Period has not ended prior to the Date of Termination, if the Date of Termination occurs by reason of the Participant’s Qualifying Termination, vesting shall continue pursuant to the Vesting Schedule following the Date of Termination as though the Participant continued to be employed through the two-year anniversary of the Participant’s Date of Termination, subject to the Participant not engaging in any Competitive Activity during such two-year period and subject to the Participant signing and not revoking a general release and waiver of all claims against the Company and such release becomes effective no later than the sixty-day anniversary of the Date of Termination. If such release is not effective within such sixty-day period or in the event that the Participant engages in a Competitive Activity prior to the last day of the Restricted Period for any Installment, the Participant shall immediately forfeit any unvested Installments.

(d)If the Participant's Date of Termination is a Change in Control Date of Termination, then, for any Installments as to which the Restricted Period has not ended prior to the Participant’s Date of Termination, the Restricted Period for such Installments will end on the Change in Control Date of Termination; provided that if the Participant's Change in Control Date of Termination occurs within the 180-day period immediately preceding the date of a Change in Control, then the Restricted Period for all unvested Installments held by the Participant on the Date of Termination will end, and those Installments will vest on the date of a Change in Control.

(e)For Installments as to which the Restricted Period has not ended prior to the Date of Termination, if the Date of Termination occurs by reason of the Participant’s Retirement, vesting shall continue pursuant to the Vesting Schedule following the Date of Termination as though the Participant continued to be employed through the end of the longest Restricted Period. Following the Date of Termination by reason of Retirement, the end of the Restricted Period for any Installment shall be determined in accordance with the Vesting Schedule.

3.Transfer and Forfeiture of Shares. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, and subject to subparagraphs 2(c), 2(d) and 2(e), the Participant shall forfeit the Units as of the Participant's Date of Termination, if such Date of Termination occurs prior to the end of the Restricted Period which applies to those Installments. If the Participant's Date of Termination has not occurred prior to the last day of the Restricted Period with respect to any Installment of the Units, then that Installment of Units shall be delivered to the Participant in the form of Stock free of all restrictions at or within sixty days after the Delivery Date; provided, however, if such delivery is contingent on the Participant's execution of a release in accordance with subparagraphs 2(c) or 9(n) and the applicable sixty-day period begins in one taxable year and ends in a second taxable year, that Installment of Units shall be delivered in the second taxable year. After delivery of a share of Stock for a Unit, the Unit shall have no further force or effect.Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any agreement between the Participant and the Company or a Subsidiary, the Participate acknowledges and agrees that the Installments of Units shall vest (and the Restricted Period shall end) only as provided by, and subject to the terms of, this Restricted Stock Unit Award.

4.Withholding. All deliveries and distributions under these Restricted Stock Unit Award Terms are subject to withholding of all applicable taxes. At the election of the Participant, and subject to such rules and limitations as may be established by the Committee from time to time, such withholding obligations may be satisfied through the surrender of shares of Stock which the Participant already owns, or to which the Participant is otherwise entitled under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee has the authority to make the necessary elections to ensure appropriate taxes are withheld.

5.Transferability. Except as otherwise provided by the Committee, the Restricted Stock Unit Award may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered during the Restricted Period.

6.Dividends. The Participant shall be permitted to receive cash payments equal to the dividends and distributions paid on shares of Stock to the same extent as if each Unit was a share of Stock, and those shares were not subject to the restrictions imposed by these Restricted Stock Unit Award Terms and the Plan; provided, however, that no dividends or distributions shall be payable to or for the benefit of the Participant with respect to record dates for such dividends or distributions occurring on or after the date, if any, on which the Participant has received a share of Stock in exchange for a Unit or has forfeited the Units. Dividend payments made under this paragraph 6 with respect to any record date will be paid as soon as practicable after dividends with respect to that record date are paid on outstanding shares but in all events within the calendar year in which such dividends are paid to the holders of Stock.

7.Voting. The Participant shall not be a shareholder of record with respect to the Units and shall have no voting rights with respect to the Units during the Restricted Period.

8.Participant’s Rights to Shares. Prior to the delivery of shares of Stock which are to be delivered pursuant to these Restricted Stock Unit Award Terms, (a) the Participant shall not be treated as owner of the shares, shall not have any rights as a shareholder as to those shares, and shall have only a contractual right to receive them, unsecured by any assets of the Company or its subsidiaries; and (b) the Participant’s right to receive such shares will be subject to the adjustment provisions relating to mergers, reorganizations, and similar events set forth in the Plan.

A Participant shall be deemed to have executed a release as described in clause (y) above only if such release is returned by such time as is established by the Company; provided that to the extent benefits provided pursuant to the Plan would be considered to be provided under a nonqualified deferred compensation plan as that term is defined in Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1, such benefits shall be paid to the Participant only if the release is returned in time to permit the distribution of the benefits to satisfy the requirements of Code section 409A with respect to the time of payment.

14.Not An Employment Contract. The Restricted Stock Unit Award will not confer on the Participant any right with respect to continuance of employment or other service with the Company or any Related Company, nor will it interfere in any way with any right the Company or any Related Company would otherwise have to terminate or modify the terms of such Participant's employment or other service at any time.

Notices shall be directed, if to the Participant, at the Participant's address indicated by the Company's records, or if to the Company, at the Company's principal executive office.

16.Fractional Shares. In lieu of issuing a fraction of a share, resulting from an adjustment of the Restricted Stock Unit Award pursuant to paragraph 5.2(f) of the Plan or otherwise, the Company will be entitled to pay to the Participant an amount equal to the fair market value of such fractional share.

17.Competitive Activity.

(a)The Committee may cancel, rescind, suspend, withhold or otherwise limit or restrict the Restricted Stock Unit Award at any time if the Participant engages in any "Competitive Activity".

18.Amendment. The Restricted Stock Unit Award Terms may be amended in accordance with the provisions of the Plan, and may otherwise be amended by written agreement of the Participant and the Company without the consent of any other person.

19.    409A Compliance. These Restricted Stock Unit Award Terms are intended to be interpreted, operated, and administered in a manner so as not to subject the Participant to the assessment of additional taxes or interest under Code section 409A, and these Restricted Stock Unit Award Terms may be amended as the Company, in its sole discretion, determines is necessary and appropriate to avoid the application of any such taxes or interest.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused these presents to be executed in its name and on its behalf, all as of the Grant Date.
