1 Vesting of Award Shares. Recipient shall become vested in 25% of the Award Shares on each of the first four anniversaries of the Vesting Start Date, subject to the Recipient’s Continuous Service through each applicable vesting date (except as otherwise provided in Section 3 hereto).

For all purposes of this Agreement, “Continuous Service” shall mean the period of continuous performance of services by Recipient for the Company or a Subsidiary, as determined by the Board in its sole and absolute discretion. If the above calculation of vested Shares would result in a fraction, any fraction will be rounded to zero.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board may, in its sole discretion, accelerate the vesting of the Award Shares in whole or in part.

The Award Shares which have become vested pursuant to the vesting schedule set forth in paragraph 1 above or by virtue of such acceleration are herein referred to as the “Vested Award Shares” and all Award Shares which are not Vested Award Shares are sometimes herein referred to as the “Unvested Award Shares.”

2 Rights as Stockholder; Dividend & Voting Rights. Upon the grant of the Award Shares to Recipient on the Award Date, the Recipient (or any subsequent transferee) shall have all of the rights of a stockholder with respect to such Award Shares, subject to all of the restrictions specified herein, including the right to receive all dividends paid or declared with respect to the Award Shares; provided, however, that any regular cash dividends with respect to an issuance of securities by the Company shall be subject to the Recipient’s Continuous Service through the record date for such dividends and such dividends shall be paid within 30 days of such record date and any dividends or distributions other than a regular cash dividend shall be subject to the underlying restrictions set forth herein. Recipient shall have all voting rights applicable for all Vested and Unvested Award Shares for which the record date is on or after the Award Date. Recipient shall have no rights whatsoever (dividend, voting or otherwise) with respect to Award Shares which have been forfeited under Section 3.

3 Forfeiture upon Cessation of Services. Upon the Recipient’s cessation of Continuous Service for any reason, all Unvested Award Shares shall be forfeited, effective upon the date of such cessation of Continuous Service, except as otherwise provided herein or in the Plan.

4 Restrictions on Unvested Award Shares. None of the Unvested Award Shares may be conveyed, pledged, assigned, transferred, hypothecated, encumbered, or otherwise disposed of by Recipient, or if the Award Shares are held or owned of record by a transferee, by such transferee, (either being referred to herein as the “Holder”), and any attempt to do so with respect to Unvested Award Shares shall be null and void ab initio, unless (1) the Board expressly authorizes such in writing and (2) Unvested Award Shares are transferred by the Recipient as a bona fide gift or for estate planning purposes and without value received by the Recipient (i) to the spouse, lineal descendant or lineal ascendant, siblings and children by adoption of the Recipient, (ii) to a trust for the benefit of one or more individuals described in clause (i) and no other persons, or (iii) to a partnership of which the only partners are one or more individuals described in clause (i), in which case the transferee shall be subject to all provisions of this Agreement. If Unvested Award Shares are transferred pursuant to (1) or (2) above, the Recipient agrees to notify the Board at least thirty (30) days prior to such transfer, and the Board may require that the transferee thereof execute and deliver to the Company such documents and agreements as the Company shall reasonably require to evidence the fact that the Award Shares to be owned, either directly or beneficially, by such transferee shall continue to be subject to all the restrictions set forth in this Agreement and all applicable rights in favor of the Company set forth elsewhere herein, and that such transferee is subject to and bound by such restrictions and provisions. The restrictions of this Section 4 shall not apply to Vested Award Shares.

5 Termination of Restrictions. The Award Shares, whether owned by the Recipient or any transferee thereof shall continue to be subject to all restrictions imposed under Section 3 and 4 until all Award Shares have become Vested Award Shares.

6 Governing Laws. This Agreement shall be construed, administered, and enforced according to the laws of the State of Maryland.

7 Successors. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the heirs, legal representatives, successors, and permitted assigns of the parties.

8 Entire Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, this Agreement expresses the entire understanding and agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter.

9 Violation. Any transfer, pledge, sale, assignment, or hypothecation of the Award Shares or any portion thereof

shall be a violation of the terms of this Agreement and shall be null, void and without effect ab initio.

10 Headings. Paragraph headings used herein are for convenience of reference only and shall not be considered in construing this Agreement.

11 Specific Performance. In the event of any actual or threatened default in, or breach of, any of the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement, the party or parties who are thereby aggrieved shall have the right to specific performance and injunction in addition to any and all other rights and remedies at law or in equity, and all such rights and remedies shall be cumulative.

12 No Rights Created. Neither the establishment of the Plan nor the award of Award Shares hereunder shall be construed as giving Recipient the right to continue in Continuous Service.

13 No Disclosure Duty. The Recipient and the Company acknowledge and agree that the Company and its directors, officers or employees shall have no duty or obligation to disclose to the Recipient any material information regarding the business of the Company or affecting the value of the Award Shares.

14 Investment Representation. The Recipient hereby represents and covenants that (a) any Shares acquired upon the vesting of the Award Shares will be acquired for investment and not with a view to the distribution thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act, unless such acquisition has been registered under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws; (b) any subsequent sale of any such Award Shares shall be made either pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws, or pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act and such state securities laws; and (c) if requested by the Company, the Recipient shall submit a written statement, in form satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such representation (x) is true and correct as of the date of vesting of any Award Shares or (y) is true and correct as of the date of any sale of any such share, as applicable. As a further condition precedent to the delivery to the Recipient of any Award Shares, the Recipient shall comply with all regulations and requirements of any regulatory authority having control of or supervision over the issuance or delivery of the shares and, in connection therewith, shall execute any documents which the Board shall in its sole discretion deem necessary or advisable.
