(b) Performance Based Vesting


Your Units will vest on the dates set forth above if the performance criteria set forth on Exhibit A are met, which criteria shall be consistent with one or more of the business criteria identified in Section 7(b) of the Plan.

To the extent that such performance criteria are not satisfied by the end of a given performance period (with the results that no Units have been earned for that particular performance period), then the applicable portion of Units indicated above will be available to be earned in the next performance period, so long as the performance criteria are satisfied prior to the end of the final performance period (the " Final Performance Date" ). To the extent that the performance goals stated above are not satisfied on or before the Final Performance Date, then the Units will be forfeited to the Company, effective as of the date following the Final Performance Date. The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors has final authority to determine whether performance criteria have been met and whether any Units have vested for a particular performance period.


Your Units are not transferable by you. Except as may be required by federal income tax withholding provisions or by the tax laws of any state, your interests (and the interests of your beneficiaries, if any) under this Agreement are not subject to the claims of your creditors and may not be voluntarily or involuntarily sold, transferred, alienated, assigned, pledged, anticipated, or encumbered. Any attempt to sell, transfer, alienate, assign, pledge, anticipate, encumber, charge or otherwise dispose of any right to benefits payable hereunder shall be void. Your Units represent an unsecured promise by the Company to issue shares of Common Stock to you in the future. Your rights to your Units are no greater than that of other general, unsecured creditors of the Company. As used in this Agreement, your primary employer (" Employer" ), the Company, and their subsidiaries and affiliates are collectively referred to as the " Employer Group."
