Your entire SAR Award is terminated immediately if the Company or an Affiliate terminates your employment for Cause, or if your employment or service is terminated at a time when you could be terminated for Cause. In addition, if you are not terminated for Cause but the Administrator later determines that you could have been terminated for Cause if all facts had been known at that time, your SAR Award will terminate immediately on the date of such determination. If you have submitted a notice of exercise while the Administrator is considering whether you should be (or could have been) terminated for Cause, your exercise will be suspended pending such determination.

For this purpose, "Cause" means (i) the commission by you of any act or omission that would constitute a felony under federal, state or equivalent foreign law; (ii) fraud, dishonesty, theft, embezzlement, disclosure of trade secrets or confidential information or other acts or omissions that result in a breach of any fiduciary duty of the Company.

To exercise this SAR Award, you must complete the "Notice of Stock Appreciation Rights Exercise" form provided by the Company. The form will be effective when it is received by the Company. [For SARs Settled in Shares Only:  However, the SAR will not be exercised until you pay the Company all applicable withholding taxes due as a result of the exercise].

If someone else wants to exercise this SAR Award after your death, that person must contact the Company and prove to the Company's satisfaction that he or she is entitled to do so.

Your ability to exercise the SARs may be restricted by the Company if required by applicable law.

Upon exercise of the SAR, the excess of the Fair Market Value of the number of SARs being exercised (as determined on the date of exercise) over the Grant Price of such SARs shall be paid to you in [cash][in Shares having an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the amount due].

Change of Control: Upon a Change of Control (as defined in the Plan):

o The SAR will become fully vested and exercisable, and

o You will have the right, exercisable by written notice to the Company within sixty (60) days after the Change of Control, to receive in exchange for surrender of the SAR an amount of cash equal to the excess of the Fair Market Value of the Shares then covered by the SAR over the Grant Price for such Shares.

Restrictions on Resale: [For SARs Settled in Shares Only:]  By accepting this Award, you agree not to sell any Shares acquired under this Award at a time when applicable laws, Company policies or an agreement between the Company and its underwriters prohibit a sale.

Miscellaneous: o As a condition of the granting of this Award, you agree, for yourself and your legal representatives or guardians, that this Agreement shall be interpreted by the Administrator and that any interpretation by the Administrator of the terms of this Agreement or the Plan and any determination made by the Administrator pursuant to this Agreement or the Plan shall be final, binding and conclusive.
