Settlement of Units. After any Units vest pursuant to [Section 3], the Company shall, as soon as practicable (but no later than 75 days after the date on which such Units vest), cause to be issued and delivered to you, or to your designated beneficiary or estate in the event of your death, one Share in payment and settlement of each vested Unit. Delivery of the Shares shall be effected by an appropriate entry in the stock register maintained by the Company’s transfer agent with a notice of issuance provided to you, or by the electronic delivery of the Shares to a brokerage account you designate, and shall be subject to compliance with all applicable legal requirements, including compliance with the requirements of applicable federal and state securities laws, and shall be in complete satisfaction and settlement of such vested Units.

/

Settlement of Claims. The Company’s obligation to make the payments provided for in this Agreement and otherwise to perform its obligations hereunder shall not be affected by any circumstances, including, without limitation, any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which the Company may have against the Executive or others.

Vesting and Settlement. Subject to [Section 9(b)] and subject to a Director’s election to defer the settlement of Restricted Stock Units pursuant to [Section 11], the shares covered by the Restricted Stock Units shall be paid or settled as soon as practicable after the fourth anniversary of the date of grant.

/

Exercisability and Settlement. The Committee shall determine, on the Award Date, the time or times at which and the circumstances under which a SAR may be exercised, in whole or in part (including based on the achievement of performance goals and/or future service requirements), the time or times at which SARs shall cease to be or become exercisable following Termination of Employment or upon other conditions, the method of exercise, method of settlement, form of consideration payable in settlement, method by or forms in which shares of Common Stock shall be delivered or deemed to be delivered to a Participant, regardless of whether a SAR shall be granted in tandem or in combination with any other Award, and any and all other terms and conditions of any SAR. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as provided in [Article 11] and [Article 14], # no SAR shall be exercisable either in whole or in part prior to the first anniversary of the Award Date, and # SARs that vest solely by the passage of time shall not vest in full in less than three (3) years from the Award Date (but may vest pro rata during such period).

Settlement of SARs. Upon the exercise of an SAR, pursuant to a notice of exercise properly completed and submitted to the Company in accordance with [Section 8.5], a Participant shall be entitled to receive payment from the Company in an amount equal to the product of [(a) and (b)])] below:

Form of Settlement. The Administrator reserves the right in its sole discretion to provide (either at or after the grant thereof) that any Restricted Stock Unit represents the right to receive the amount of cash per unit that is determined by the Administrator in connection with the Award.

Settlement of Claims. The Company shall not be liable to indemnify Indemnitee under this Agreement or otherwise for any amounts paid in settlement of any Proceeding effected without the Company's written consent, provided, however, that if a Change in Control has occurred (other than a Change in Control approved by a majority of the directors on the Board who were directors immediately prior to such Change in Control), the Company shall be liable for indemnification of Indemnitee for amounts paid in settlement if the Independent Counsel has approved the settlement. The Company shall not settle any Proceeding in any manner that would impose any penalty or limitation on Indemnitee without Indemnitee's written consent. Neither the Company nor the Indemnitee will unreasonably withhold their consent to any proposed settlement. The Company shall not be liable to indemnify the Indemnitee under this Agreement with regard to any judicial award if the Company was not given a reasonable and timely opportunity, at its expense, to participate in the defense of such action; the Company's liability hereunder shall not be excused if participation in the Proceeding by the Company was barred by this Agreement.

Settlement; Tax Withholding. Upon the vesting of Your RSUs, Your RSUs will be settled in Shares within 60 days and You will recognize ordinary income. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent required to comply with Section 409A of the Code, if You are a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, and the vesting of Your RSUs is triggered as a result of Your termination of employment, the delivery of Shares shall be delayed until # the six-month anniversary of Your separation from service (within the meaning of [Section 409A]) or # if earlier, as soon as practicable following Your death. The Company is required to withhold payroll taxes due with respect to that ordinary income. Pursuant to the Plan, at its option the Committee either may # have the Company withhold Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount of the tax withholding or # require You to pay to the Company the amount of the tax withholding.

/

Settlement of RSUs. Each vested RSU shall be settled during the period beginning on the applicable Vesting Date and ending on the later of: # the last day of the calendar year in which such Vesting Date occurs or # March 15th of the calendar year following the end of the calendar year in which such Vesting Date occurs (the “Settlement Date”). The Company will settle vested RSUs by issuing to Participant, on a one-for-one basis, Shares of Common Stock of the Company or cash equal to the Fair Market Value of such Shares. In no event shall Participant be permitted to designate the taxable year in which settlement of an RSU shall occur.

Settlement of Award. There may be regular federal and state income tax liability upon settlement of the Award. Participant will be treated as having received compensation income (taxable at ordinary income tax rates) equal to the cash or Fair Market Value of the Shares issued to Participant. If Participant is a current or former employee of the Company or an Affiliate, the Company or such Affiliate may be required to withhold from Participant’s compensation or collect from Participant and pay to the applicable taxing authorities an amount equal to a percentage of this compensation income at the time of settlement.
