These shares of
Restricted Stock are subject to the terms and conditions provided
in the Plan. A copy of the Plan and an Information Memorandum are
enclosed. Please read these documents carefully. The Mexican tax
treatment of these awards may be different from that indicated in
the Information Memorandum and you may want to consult your tax
advisors. Because you are a citizen of Mexico, the U.S. tax rules
require tax withholding on dividends and stock awards in accordance
with the U.S. - Mexico Income Tax Treaty (currently 30%).
Restricted Stock generally will be taxable in the U.S. in the
amount of the fair market value of the shares on the date when the
restrictions lapse. In order to meet the withholding requirements
for Restricted Stock awards, shares of Restricted Stock will be
withheld at the applicable rate.
By signing and
returning this Award Letter to me, you acknowledge and agree (i) to
be bound by all of the terms, provisions and limitations of the
Plan, (ii) that you appoint Mellon Investor Services, LLC as agent
for the purpose of receiving the Restricted Stock awarded to you,
(iii) that you direct Mellon to hold the Restricted Stock in book
entry form under the terms and conditions of the Plan, (iv) that
the transfer of the Restricted Stock to Mellon constitutes the
legal equivalent of delivery to you, and (v) that Mellon shall be
empowered to take any action necessary to retransfer to the Company
any shares of forfeited Restricted Stock pursuant to the terms of
the Plan.
My office will
keep track of the Restricted Stock awarded to you under the Plan.
As soon as practicable after the lapse of restrictions set forth in
the Plan (and subject to applicable tax withholding, if any), we
will send the certificates for the unrestricted shares to
you.
If you need
information about the shares of Restricted Stock, or if you need
additional copies of the Plan, the Information Memorandum, or other
documents, please contact my office at
(314) 577-3314.
Very truly
yours,
Acknowledged
and Agreed:
