Capitalized terms used in this Agreement without definition shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the Plan. 1. ISSUANCE OF RESTRICTED SHARES. Company hereby awards to Employee 100,000 shares of Stock (the "Restricted Shares"). 2. LAPSE OF RESTRICTIONS. Restricted Shares shall cease to be subject to the restrictions described herein, (shares no longer subject to such restrictions being referred to herein as "Unrestricted Shares") as of the date set forth below according to the percentage set forth opposite such date: <Table> <Caption> Date Cumulative Percentage Unrestricted ---- ---------------------------------- <S> <C> July 1, 2004 25% July 1, 2005 50% July 1, 2006 75% July 1, 2007 100% </Table> In the event that Employee ceases to be a Service Provider for any or no reason (including death or disability) before all of the shares of Stock granted hereunder cease to be Restricted Shares, Employee shall, upon the date of such termination (as reasonably fixed and determined by the Company, the "Termination Date") forfeit that number of shares of Stock which constitute the Restricted Shares. Upon such forfeiture the Company shall become the legal and beneficial owner of the Restricted Shares being forfeited and all rights and interests therein or relating thereto, and the Company shall have the right to retain and transfer to its own name the number of Restricted Shares being forfeited by Employee. 3. RESTRICTION ON TRANSFER. Restricted Shares (and any interest therein) may never be directly or indirectly transferred, pledged, hypothecated, or otherwise disposed of while they remain Restricted Shares. Prior to the closing of an initial public offering with respect to shares of Stock ("IPO") registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), neither Unrestricted Shares nor any interest therein my be transferred, pledged, hypothecated, or otherwise disposed of. Following the consummation of an IPO, any Unrestricted Shares shall be freely transferable subject only to the restrictions set forth in Sections 6 and 8 hereof. 4. REPURCHASE. In the event that Employee ceases to be a Service Provider for any or no reason (including death or disability) at any time prior to the consummation of an IPO, any then Unrestricted Shares shall be subject to a right (but not an obligation) of repurchase by Company. Company's right of repurchase with respect to Unrestricted Shares shall be exercisable, during the sixty (60) day period immediately following the Termination Date, by delivery of written notice to Employee (which notice shall set forth a date, within thirty (30) days of the date of the notice, on which the repurchase is to be effected). Company's right of repurchase with respect to Unrestricted Shares shall lapse upon the consummation of an IPO or upon expiration of the above referenced sixty (60) day period. If Company exercises its right of repurchase with respect to Unrestricted Shares it shall pay Employee, at closing, an amount equal to: (a) the Fair Market Value (as of the Termination Date) per share in the event that Employee's employment with the Company is terminated by the Company other than for "Cause" (as defined in Employee's Employment Agreement) or if Employee resigns as a result of "Constructive <Page> Termination" (as defined therein); or (b) par value per share in the event that Employee's employment with the Company is terminated by the Company for Cause or if Employee resigns other than as a result of Constructive Termination.. At the closing of any repurchase, Employee shall deliver to Company stock certificates duly endorsed for transfer, or accompanied by duly executed stock powers, representing all of the Stock being sold, free and clear of all claims, liens, or encumbrances from any third parties together with such other documentation as Company's legal counsel may reasonably require. 5. ESCROW. The Company may, in its discretion, reflect ownership of Restricted Shares (and Unrestricted Shares) through the issuance of stock certificates, or in book-entry form, without stock certificates, on its books and records. If the Company elects to issue certificates, such certificates for Restricted Shares shall be deposited in escrow, together with stock powers duly executed in blank by Employee, with the corporate secretary of Company to be held in accordance with the provisions hereof. Restricted Shares shall be: (i) released to Company upon forfeiture as described in Section 2 above; (ii) release for transfer and assignment to Company upon Company's exercise of its right of repurchase described in Section 4 above; or (ii) released to Employee, upon Employee's request, to the extent the shares of Stock are no longer Restricted Shares. 6. ADDITIONAL RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER OF STOCK.
