(b) For each Performance Year during which the Company has EBIT that is equal to or greater than 90% (but less than 100%) of the Performance Target for such Performance Year, 2,500 Shares shall Vest as of May 31 of such year.

(c) For each Performance Year during which the Company has EBIT that is equal to or greater than 80% (but less than 90%) of the Performance Target for such Performance Year, 1,250 Shares shall Vest as of May 31 of such year.

3.2 Catch-up Vesting.

(a) if less than 5,000 Shares have Vested in Performance Year 2005 under Section 3.1 above, and (i) the sum of the EBIT for Performance Years 2005 and 2006 is at least equal to the sum of the Performance Targets for those two years or (ii) the sum of the EBIT for Performance Years 2005, 2006 and 2007 is at least equal to the sum of the Performance Targets for those three years – then the number of Vested Shares for Performance Year 2005 shall be 5,000.

3.3 Maximum Vesting. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the maximum number of Shares that can Vest pursuant to this Agreement shall be 15,000 Shares.

3.4 Accelerated Vesting. Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of Section 3 above, in the event of the occurrence of a “Change of Control” as defined above while Tholan is employed by the Company, all 15,000 Shares covered by this Agreement shall thereupon become Vested without further action.

3.5 Forfeitures. In the event that Tholan ceases to be an employee of the Company prior to the date that all 15,000 Shares become vested, Tholan shall forfeit the right to receive any Shares that shall not have become Vested as of the date that his employment with the Company is terminated and all Shares that are not vested shall thereupon be cancelled.

4. Adjustment to Performance Targets. In the event that the Company disposes of a subsidiary corporation or other business entity during any Performance Year, a prospective adjustment shall be made to reduce the Performance Target for the Performance Year during which such disposition occurs and for subsequent Performance Years by the amount of the EBIT that such subsidiary or other entity had during the fiscal year that immediately precedes the fiscal year during which such disposition occurs. In the event that the Company acquires a subsidiary or other business entity during any Performance Year, the then existing Performance Target shall be increased for such Performance Year and each Performance Year thereafter by the product of the amount of the EBIT of such subsidiary or other entity for the fiscal year that immediately precedes the date of such acquisition multiplied times that percentage of each Performance Year during which such subsidiary or other entity is owned by the Company. The Company’s Auditor’s determinations of EBIT with respect to each Performance Year shall be final and binding on the Company and Tholan.

5. Stock Certificates, Dividends, and Voting of Restricted Shares. Shares granted pursuant to this Agreement shall be represented by a stock certificate registered in Tholan’s name. The certificate for Shares shall be retained by the Company until the Shares represented by such certificate either Vest or are forfeited. Prior to Vesting, Tholan shall have the right to receive any dividends distributed with respect to the Shares, to vote the Shares, and to enjoy all other stockholder rights, except that (i) Tholan shall not be entitled to delivery of stock certificates representing said Shares until such Shares have Vested, (ii) Company shall retain custody of the certificates for the Shares until they have vested, (iii) Tholan may not sell, transfer, pledge, exchange, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of the Shares until the Shares have Vested. As and when the Shares Vest pursuant to this Agreement, a stock certificate for the number of Shares that have vested shall be delivered to Tholan and none of the restrictions set forth in this Agreement shall thereafter apply to the Vested Shares.

6. Miscellaneous.

6.1 No Employment Rights Conferred.

(a) The Company. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall (i) confer upon Tholan any right with respect to continuation of employment with the Company or (ii) interfere in any way with the right of the Company to terminate Tholan’s employment at any time.
