ARTICLE II.

AWARD OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS

Section 2.1Award of RSUs.

(a) In consideration of Participant’s past and continued service to the Company and for other good and valuable consideration, effective as of the Grant Date set forth in the Grant Notice, the Company has granted to Participant the number of RSUs set forth in the Grant Notice, upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Grant Notice, the Plan and this Agreement, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 12.2 of the Plan. Each RSU represents the right to receive one Share at the times and subject to the conditions set forth herein. However, unless and until the RSUs have vested, Participant will have no right to the payment of any Shares subject thereto. Prior to the actual delivery of any Shares, the RSUs will represent an unsecured obligation of the Company, payable only from the general assets of the Company.

(b) If, after the Grant Date set forth in the Grant Notice and prior to the distribution or payment in settlement of the RSUs, dividends with respect to the Shares are declared or paid by the Company, Participant shall be entitled to receive Dividend Equivalents in an amount, without interest, equal to the cumulative dividends declared or paid on a Share, if any, during such period multiplied by the number of RSUs to the extent such RSUs vest. Dividend Equivalents will be subject to the same terms and conditions of the Grant Notice and the Agreement applicable the RSUs. The Dividend Equivalents will be paid on the applicable date of distribution or payment in settlement of the underlying RSUs in cash or Shares, as determined by the Administrator in its discretion. If the underlying RSUs are forfeited or cancelled prior to the applicable date of distribution or payment in settlement of the underlying RSUs for any reason, any accrued and unpaid Dividend Equivalents related to forfeited or cancelled RSUs shall be forfeited and cancelled.

Section 2.2Vesting of RSUs.

(a) The RSUs shall vest on the earlier of (i) the day immediately preceding the date of the first annual meeting of the Company’s stockholders following the Grant Date set forth in the Grant Notice and (ii) the first anniversary of the Grant Date set forth in the Grant Notice, subject to Participant’s continued service to the Company through the Vesting Date (such earlier date, the “Vesting Date”).

(b) In the event Participant incurs a Termination of Service prior to the Vesting Date, except as may be otherwise provided herein or by the Administrator or as set forth in a written agreement between Participant and the Company, Participant shall immediately forfeit any and all then-unvested RSUs granted under this Agreement, and Participant’s rights in any such then-unvested RSUs shall lapse and expire.

(c) Notwithstanding the Grant Notice or the provisions of Section 2.2(a) and Section 2.2(b), in the event Participant incurs a Termination of Service due to death or Disability prior to the Vesting Date, the RSUs that are then unvested shall become vested in full on the date of such Termination of Service. The date of the Termination of Service shall be the “Vesting Date” for the purposes of this Agreement if this Section 2.2(c) is applicable.

(d) Notwithstanding the Grant Notice or the provisions of Section 2.2(a) and Section 2.2(b), in the event of a Change in Control prior to the Vesting Date, the RSUs that are then unvested shall become vested as follows as of the date of the Change of Control. For purposes of this Agreement, “Change in Control” shall mean a Change in Control (as defined under the Plan) that constitutes a “change in control event” as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5).

Section 2.3Distribution or Payment of RSUs.

(a) Participant’s RSUs to the extent vested shall be distributed in Shares (either in book-entry form or otherwise) promptly following the Vesting Date, but in all events prior to March 15 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Vesting Date occurs; provided, however, that in the event of a Change in Control where the RSUs are not assumed by the surviving company in such Change in Control, the RSUs may be cancelled in exchange for the right to receive a cash payment equal to the number of RSUs vested in accordance with Section 2.2 multiplied by the value of a Share as of such Change in Control as determined by the Administrator. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may delay a distribution or payment in settlement of RSUs if it reasonably determines that such payment or distribution will violate federal securities laws or any other Applicable Law, provided that such distribution or payment shall be made at the earliest date at which the Company reasonably determines that the making of such distribution or payment will not cause such violation, as required by Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(7)(ii), and provided further that no payment or distribution shall be delayed under this Section 2.3(a) if such delay will result in a violation of Section 409A.

(b) All distributions of Shares shall be made by the Company in the form of whole Shares, and any fractional share shall be distributed in cash in an amount equal to the value of

such fractional share determined based on the Fair Market Value as of the date immediately preceding the date of such distribution.

Section 2.4Conditions to Issuance of Certificates. The Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificate or certificates for any Shares or to cause any Shares to be held in book-entry form prior to the fulfillment of all of the following conditions: (a) the admission of the Shares to listing on all stock exchanges on which such Shares are then listed, (b) the completion of any registration or other qualification of the Shares under any state or federal law or under rulings or regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission or other governmental regulatory body, which the Administrator shall, in its absolute discretion, deem necessary or advisable, (c) the obtaining of any approval or other clearance from any state or federal governmental agency that the Administrator shall, in its absolute discretion, determine to be necessary or advisable, and (d) the receipt by the Company of full payment of any applicable withholding tax arising as a result of the issuance of the Shares.

Section 2.5Tax Obligations. Participant shall be wholly responsible for the payment of all applicable federal, state and local taxes required by law to be paid with respect to any taxable event arising in connection with the RSUs.

Section 2.6Rights as Stockholder. Neither Participant nor any Person claiming under or through Participant will have any of the rights or privileges of a stockholder of the Company in respect of any Shares deliverable hereunder unless and until certificates representing such Shares (which may be in book-entry form) will have been issued and recorded on the records of the Company or its transfer agents or registrars and delivered to Participant (including through electronic delivery to a brokerage account). Except as otherwise provided herein, after such issuance, recordation and delivery, Participant will have all the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to such Shares, including, without limitation, the right to receipt of dividends and distributions on such Shares.
