Article I

GENERAL

 

Section 1.01
Defined Terms. Capitalized terms not specifically defined herein shall have the meanings specified in the Plan or the Grant Notice.
Section 1.02
Incorporation of Terms of Plan. The RSUs and any shares of Common Stock (“Stock”) issued to Participant pursuant to this Agreement (“Shares”) are subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Plan, which is incorporated herein by reference. In the event of any inconsistency between the Plan and this Agreement, the terms of the Plan shall control.

 

Article II

AWARD OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS

 

Section 2.01
Award of RSUs. The Company hereby grants to Grantee the number of RSUs set forth in the Grant Notice (the “Award”). Each RSU represents the right to receive one share of Common Stock, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Plan.
Section 2.02
Vesting of RSUs.
(a)
The RSUs are subject to forfeiture until they vest. Except as otherwise provided in Sections 2.02(b) or (c) below, the number of RSUs determined pursuant to Section 2.02 will vest in one installment on [DATE] (the “Vesting Date”), and become nonforfeitable upon vesting, provided that Grantee serves continuously as a director of the Company from the Grant Date through the Vesting Date. If Grantee has a Termination of Service for any reason at any time before the Vesting Date, Grantee’s RSUs shall be automatically forfeited upon such Termination of Service without consideration and the Company shall have no further obligations to Grantee under this Agreement.
(b)
In the event Grantee incurs a Termination of Service as the result of Grantee’s death or disability, Grantee will be deemed to have satisfied the service vesting condition set forth in Section 2.02(a) as of the date of such Termination of Service, and will be entitled to a payment of a pro rata portion of the Award, calculated based on a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days from the Grant Date until the date of Grantee’s Termination of Service, and the denominator of which is the total number of days from the Grant Date until the Vesting Date.
(c)
In the event the Grantee incurs a Termination of Service in connection with a Change in Control prior to the Vesting Date, then Grantee will be deemed to have satisfied the service vesting condition set forth in Section 2.02(a) as of the date of such termination, and will be entitled to a payment of RSUs equal to the Award.

 

Section 2.03
Payment of RSUs. Payment in respect of the RSUs earned shall be made in Shares which shall be issued to Grantee not later than seventy-five (75) days following the Vesting Date,

or such earlier date the RSUs become vested under Section 2.02(b) or (c). All distributions 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 2.04
Taxes.
(a)
Grantee is ultimately liable and responsible for all taxes owed in connection with the RSUs. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary makes any representation or undertaking regarding the tax treatment in connection with the awarding, vesting or payment of the RSUs or the subsequent sale of Shares. The Company and the Subsidiaries do not commit and are under no obligation to structure the RSUs to reduce or eliminate Grantee’s tax liability and Grantee will be solely responsible for the payment of all taxes attributed to the RSUs.
Section 2.05
Rights as Stockholder. Neither Grantee nor any person claiming under or through Grantee 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 Grantee (including through electronic delivery to a brokerage account). After such issuance, recordation and delivery, Grantee 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.
