TERMS AND CONDITIONS

1.
Grant of Restricted Stock [or Restricted Stock Units].  The Date of Grant and number of shares underlying your Restricted Stock [or Restricted Stock Units] Award are stated on page 1 of this Award Agreement.  Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the 2008 Plan.

2.
Restrictions.  The unvested portion of your Award is subject to the following restrictions until they expire or terminate.

(b)  
Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units may not be sold, transferred, exchanged, assigned, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise encumbered.

(c)  
If your employment or service with the Company or any affiliate terminates for any reason other than as set forth in paragraph (b) of Section 3 hereof, then you will forfeit all of your rights, title and interest in and to your Award as of the date of termination, and the Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units shall revert to the Company under the terms of the 2008 Plan.

(d)  
Your Award is subject to the vesting schedule set forth on page 1 of this Award Agreement.

3.
Expiration and Termination of Restrictions.  The restrictions imposed under Section 2 will expire on the earliest to occur of the following (the period prior to such expiration being referred to herein as the “Restricted Period”):

(a)  
Vesting Dates set forth on page 1, provided you are still employed by or in service of Company or an affiliate of the Company; or

(b)  
Upon termination of your employment by reason of death, Disability, normal or late retirement, or with the consent of the Committee, early retirement; or

(c)  
Upon a Change in Control.

4.
Distribution.  Once the Restricted Period expires, the Common Stock (and accumulated dividends and earnings (if any), unless the Committee elects to pay out the  accumulated dividends and earnings prior to vesting), will be distributed in accordance with your instructions.

5.
Voting and Dividend Rights.  As beneficial owner of the Restricted Stock, you have full voting and dividend rights with respect to the Restricted Stock during and after the Restricted Period.  If you forfeit your rights under this Award Agreement in accordance with Section 2, you will no longer have any rights as a shareholder with respect to the Restricted Stock and you will no longer be entitled to receive dividends on the Common Stock.

6.
Changes in Capital Structure.  Upon the occurrence of a corporate event (including, without limitation, any stock dividend, stock split, extraordinary cash dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination or exchange of shares), your award will be adjusted as necessary to preserve the benefits or potential benefits of the Award.  Without limiting the above, in the event of a subdivision of the outstanding Stock (stock-split), a declaration of a dividend payable in Stock, or a combination or consolidation of the outstanding Stock into a lesser number of shares, the Restricted Stock or Stock Unit subject to this Award Agreement will automatically be adjusted proportionately.

7.
No Right of Continued Employment or Service.  Nothing in this Award Agreement will interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company or any affiliate to terminate your employment or service at any time, nor confer upon you any right to continue in the employ or service of the Company or any affiliate.

10.
Severability.  If any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement is deemed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the other provisions of this Agreement will be construed and enforced as if the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been included in this Agreement.
