transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated, whether by
operation of law or otherwise, nor may your RSUs be made subject to
execution, attachment or similar process.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Your RSUs shall
vest according to the schedule set forth on the cover sheet;
provided , that, you remain in Service on the
relevant vesting dates. If your Service terminates for any reason,
you will forfeit any RSUs in which you have not yet become
vested.
|
|
|
|
|
Delivery of
Stock Pursuant to Vesting of RSUs
|
|
A certificate
for the shares of Stock represented by your RSUs typically shall be
delivered to you upon vesting, unless the Administrator (in its
sole discretion) allows you elect to defer delivery of such Stock
and you make such election in a timely manner. If your Service
terminates for a reason other than for Cause prior to such date,
you will instead be delivered a certificate for the vested portion
of your RSUs represented by this Agreement. If your Service
terminates for Cause, you shall forfeit of all of your
RSUs.

If you are a

the Code and shares would otherwise be delivered to you on account
of your separation from Service, then such shares shall not be
delivered to you until six months after your separation from
Service; and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If the shares
relating to the vested RSUs would otherwise be delivered during a
period in which you are (i) subject to a lock-up agreement
restricting your ability to sell shares of Stock in the open market
or (ii) restricted from selling shares of Stock in the open
market because you are not then eligible to sell under the
Company’s insider trading or similar plan as then in effect
(whether because a trading window is not open or you are otherwise
restricted from trading), delivery of the shares related to the
vested RSUs may be delayed until no earlier than the first date on
which you are no longer prohibited from selling shares of Stock due
to a lock-up agreement or insider trading plan restriction;

vested RSUs will be
