Issuance of Restricted Shares. Until the Restricted Shares vest as provided in Section 4 of this Agreement, the Restricted Shares will be evidenced either by a book-entry in your name with the Company’s transfer agent or by one or more stock certificates issued in your name. Any such stock certificate(s) will be deposited with the Company or its designee and will bear the following legend:

Delivery of Restricted Shares. As soon as practicable after the Grant Date, the Company will cause its transfer agent to either maintain a book entry account in your name reflecting the issuance of the Restricted Shares, or issue one or more stock certificates in your name evidencing the Restricted Shares. Any such stock certificate will be deposited with the Company or its designee, and bear an appropriate legend referring to the restricted nature of the Restricted Stock evidenced thereby. Any book-entry that reflects the issuance of such Restricted Shares will be subject to stop transfer instructions as provided in Sections 9(b) and 9(c). Your right to receive this Restricted Stock Award is conditioned upon your execution and delivery to the Company of any instruments of assignment that may be necessary to permit transfer to the Company of all or a portion of the Restricted Shares if such Restricted Shares are forfeited in whole or in part.

Manner In Which Shares Will Be Held. All shares of Restricted Stock awarded to Participant hereunder shall be issued in book-entry form and held by the Company, or its designee, in such form, and as such, no stock certificates evidencing such shares will be issued or held with respect to such Restricted Stock. Certain terms, conditions and restrictions applicable to such Restricted Stock will be noted in the records of the Company’s transfer agent and in the book-entry system. At the Company’s discretion, and subject to the provisions of this Paragraph 4, stock certificates evidencing the shares of Restricted Stock awarded under this Agreement may be issued and registered in the name of Participant. In such event, such certificates shall be delivered to and held in custody by the Company, or its designee, until the restrictions thereon shall have lapsed or any conditions to the vesting of such Award, or a portion thereof, have been satisfied, and such certificates shall bear an appropriate legend referring to the terms, conditions and restrictions applicable to such Award.

Issuance of Restricted Shares Prior to Vesting. The Company shall issue stock certificates that evidence Restricted Shares pending the lapse of applicable restrictions, and that bear a legend making appropriate reference to such restrictions. Except as set forth in the applicable Award Agreement or as the Committee otherwise determines, the Company or a third party that the Company designates shall hold such Restricted Shares and any dividends that accrue with respect to Restricted Shares pursuant to Section 8(e) below.
