EXHIBIT A

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT

FOR EXECUTIVE GROUP

1. Time and Operational Vesting of Restricted Stock . Except as provided in these Terms and Conditions, the Restricted Stock shall vest and become nonforfeitable in accordance with the Vesting Schedule for each full year, up to a total of five (5) full years that the Employee continues to be employed by the Company after the date of this Agreement, with the first vesting date being for 25% of the grant two (2) years after the date of grant and an additional 25% each year thereafter, subject to the additional qualifications, applied on each such vesting date, based on Company’s operations described below. The period from the date hereof until the shares of Restricted Stock would have become 100% vested if time were the only criterion shall be referred to as the “Restricted Period.”

This award of Restricted Stock to employee is intended to encourage Employee to cause the operating earnings of Company to grow by the Target each calendar year. At each of the vesting dates set forth in the Vesting Schedule, Restricted Stock will be eligible to vest only if the Employee continues to be fully employed by the Company and the Company achieves the Minimum in the calendar year preceding such vesting date.

If such conditions are met, then the eligible shares shall vest as follows:

 

PERFORMANCE

 

VESTING PERCENTAGE

Target achieved in one or both preceding calendar years   100%
Target not achieved in either of preceding calendar years   At discretion of Human Resources &
Compensation Committee

Minimum means for any calendar year of the Company such percentage of budgeted profit, as approved by the Human Resources & Compensation Committee, being attained.

Target means for any calendar year the percentage operating earnings growth approved by the Human Resources & Compensation Committee, with reference to the estimated prospects of the Company’s Industry Peers (as defined below) for that calendar year.

In all events the Human Resources & Compensation Committee reserves authority to increase or decrease any such vesting by 20% of the eligible shares to vest on such date. Without limitation, one factor which may be considered in such exercise of discretion will be total shareholder return (“TSR”) versus the total shareholder returns of the peer group (“Peers”). The Peers shall be comprised from two distinct groups, one from the Company’s competitors for SEC and Human Resources & Compensation Committee purposes (“Industry Peers”) and the other from the S & P 600, with Industry Peers accounting for  2 / 3 of the weight and the S & P 600 accounting for  1 / 3 of the weight of the Peers measurements.

2. Issuance of Certificates . The stock certificate(s) evidencing the Restricted Stock shall be issued and registered on the Company’s books and records in the name of the Employee as soon as practicable following the date of this Agreement. The Company shall retain control of each award representing the Restricted Stock until such time as the Restricted Stock becomes vested in accordance with the terms herein. Company is granted a power of attorney, coupled with an interest, to administer these shares in accordance with the terms of this award and the Plan.

Upon the written request of the Employee following the vesting of any portion of the shares of Restricted Stock prior to any event of forfeiture hereunder, the Company will cause a stock certificate to be issued, without such restrictive legend, with respect to the vested portion of the shares of the Restricted Stock registered on the Company’s books and records in the name of the Employee. Following the expiration of the Restricted Period, the Company will cause a stock certificate to be issued for any shares of Restricted Stock that have vested prior to any event of forfeiture hereunder and have not been reissued without the restrictions described above.

3. Transferability . During the Restricted Period, the Employee shall not sell, assign, transfer, pledge, exchange, hypothecate, or otherwise dispose of unvested Restricted Stock. Upon receipt by the Employee of stock certificate(s) representing vested shares without a restrictive legend pursuant to the Agreement, the Employee may hold or dispose of the shares represented by such certificate(s), subject to compliance with (i) the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement and (ii) applicab
