PERFORMANCE STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT

SECTION 1.GRANT OF PERFORMANCE STOCK UNITS.

(a)Performance Stock Units. On the terms and conditions set forth in the Notice of Performance Stock Unit Grant and this Agreement, the Company grants to the Participant on the PSUs Grant Date the number of PSUs set forth in the Notice of Performance Stock Unit Grant.

(b)Plan and Defined Terms. These PSUs are granted pursuant to the Plan, a copy of which the Participant acknowledges having received. The provisions of the Plan are incorporated into this Agreement by this reference. Capitalized terms are defined in Section 7 of this Agreement, unless otherwise defined in Section 2 of the Plan.

SECTION 2.RESTRICTIONS.

(a)No Issuance. In the case of the PSUs, no Shares shall be issued at the PSUs Grant Date.

(b)No Right to Service. Nothing contained in this Agreement or the Plan constitutes a continued employment or service commitment by the Company or any of its Affiliates, affects the Participant’s status, if he or she is an employee, as an employee at will who is subject to termination without cause, confers upon the Participant any right to remain employed by or in service to the Company or any Affiliate, interferes in any way with the right of the Company or any Affiliate at any time to terminate such employment or service, or affects the right of the Company or any Affiliate to increase or decrease the Participant’s other compensation. Nothing in the preceding sentence, however, is intended to adversely affect any independent contractual right of the Participant without his/her consent thereto.

SECTION 3.NO TRANSFER OR ASSIGNMENT OF PERFORMANCE STOCK UNITS.

Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the PSUs and the rights and privileges conferred hereby shall not be sold, pledged or otherwise transferred (whether by operation of law or otherwise) and shall not be subject to sale under execution, attachment, levy or similar process.

SECTION 4.VESTING OF PERFORMANCE STOCK UNITS

(a)Vesting. The PSUs granted hereby shall vest in accordance with the terms of the Plan and as set forth in Exhibit “A” attached hereto. Vested PSUs will be settled in Shares (either in certificate or book entry form, as determined by the Company), registered in the name of the Participant (or in the names of such person and his or her spouse as community property or as joint tenants with right of survivorship). For each vested PSU, the Participant shall receive one Share.

(b)Withholding Taxes. In the event that the Company determines that it is required to withhold any tax as a result of the vesting of the PSUs, the Participant, as a condition to the vesting of the PSUs, shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Company to enable it to satisfy all withholding requirements. The Participant shall also make arrangements satisfactory to the Company to enable it to satisfy any withholding requirements that may arise in connection with the vesting or disposition of the Shares issued upon vesting of the PSUs, which may include

withholding the appropriate amount necessary from any compensation paid to Participant.  In addition, the Company, in its discretion, may withhold Shares otherwise issuable to the Participant as a result of the vesting PSUs equal to the amount of value needed by the Company to satisfy its tax withholding obligations.

(c)Issue Price. The issue price for each of the issued Shares upon vesting of the PSUs will be equal to the Fair Market Value of each Share on the date of issuance. The aggregate value of the past services performed for the Company by the Participant in consideration for the Shares will not exceed the Fair Market Value of those services and such amount will equal or exceed the total issue price for the Shares.

SECTION 5.ADJUSTMENT OF SHARES.

In the event of any transaction described in Section 4(c) of the Plan, the terms of this Agreement (including, without limitation, the number of Shares subject to the vesting of the PSUs) shall be adjusted as set forth in Section 4(c) of the Plan. In the event that the Company is a party to any corporate transaction, this Agreement may be subject to termination, settlement and/or adjustment as provided in Section 7(b) of the Plan.

SECTION 6.MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.

(a)Rights as a Shareholder. The Participant shall not have any rights as a shareholder with respect to any Shares underlying the PSUs until such time as the Participant becomes entitled to receive such Shares pursuant to the vesting terms set forth in Section 4 of this Agreement.

(b)Compliance Matters. The Company may require from the Participant such investment representation, undertaking or agreement, if any, as the Company may consider necessary in order to comply with applicable laws and policies of any applicable exchange. The Participant understands and acknowledges that the Shares to be issued upon vesting of the PSUs may be issued with transfer restrictions as may be required by applicable securities laws and stock exchange requirements.

(c)No Retention Rights. Nothing in this Agreement or in the Plan shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue in service for any period of specific duration or interfere with or otherwise restrict in any way the rights of the Company (or any Affiliate employing or retaining the Participant) or of the Participant.

(d)Incorporation of Policies. All compensation awarded under this Agreement shall be subject to the terms of any clawback, noncompetition, confidentiality or nondisclosure policies or agreements as may be in place between the Participant and the Company or any Affiliate from time to time.

(e)Notice. Any notice required by the terms of this Agreement shall be given in writing and notice to the Company shall be deemed effective upon receipt by the Company (i) upon personal delivery, (ii) through registered or certified mail with postage and fees prepaid; or (iii) through electronic notification using a form and process approved by the Company.
