FORM OF

RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT

     THIS RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”), made as of the ___ day of ___, 20___ (the “Grant Date”) by and between CCE Spinco, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and ___(the “Grantee”), evidences the grant by the Company of an award of restricted stock (the “Award”) to the Grantee on such date and the Grantee’s acceptance of the Award in accordance with the provisions of the CCE Spinco, Inc. 2005 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Company and the Grantee agree as follows:

     1.  Basis for Award . This Award is made under the Plan pursuant to Section 8 thereof for service rendered or to be rendered to the Company by the Grantee, subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 4(b) hereof.

     2.  Stock Awarded .

          (a) The Company hereby awards to the Grantee, in the aggregate, shares of Restricted Stock (the “Restricted Stock”) which shall be subject to the restrictions and conditions set forth in the Plan and in this Agreement.

          (b) Shares of Restricted Stock shall be evidenced by book-entry registration with the Company’s transfer agent, subject to such stop-transfer orders and other terms deemed appropriate by the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Committee”) to reflect the restrictions applicable to such Award. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any certificate is issued in respect of shares of Restricted Stock at the sole discretion of the Committee, such certificate shall be registered in the name of Grantee and shall bear an appropriate legend referring to the terms, conditions, and restrictions applicable to such award, substantially in the following form:

“THE TRANSFERABILITY OF THIS CERTIFICATE AND THE COMMON STOCK REPRESENTED HEREBY ARE SUBJECT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS (INCLUDING FORFEITURE) CONTAINED IN THE RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT DATED AS OF ___, 20___, ENTERED INTO BETWEEN THE REGISTERED OWNER AND CCE SPINCO, INC.”

If a certificate is issued with respect to the Restricted Stock, the Committee may require that the certificate evidencing such shares be held in custody by the Company until the restrictions thereon shall have lapsed and that the Grantee deliver a stock power, endorsed in blank, relating to the Shares covered by such Award. At the expiration of the restrictions, the Company shall instruct the transfer agent to release the shares from the restrictions applicable to such Award, subject to the terms of the Plan and applicable law or, in the event that a certificate has been

 


 

issued, redeliver to the Grantee (or his legal representative, beneficiary or heir) share certificates for the Shares deposited with it without any legend except as otherwise provided by the Plan, this Agreement or applicable law. During the period that the Grantee holds the shares of Restricted Stock, the Grantee shall have the right to receive dividends on and to vote the Restricted Stock while it is subject to restriction; provided, however, that shares of Common Stock distributed in connection with a stock split or stock dividend, and other property distributed as a dividend, with respect to the Restricted Stock shall be subject to the transfer and forfeiture restrictions to the same extent as the Restricted Stock. If the Award is forfeited in whole or in part, the Grantee will assign, transfer, and deliver any evidence of the shares of Restricted Stock to the Company and cooperate with the Company to reflect such forfeiture.

          (c) In addition to the forfeiture restrictions set forth herein, prior to vesting as provided in Sections 3 and 4(a) of this Agreement, the shares of Restricted Stock may not be sold, assigned, transferred, hypothecated, pledged or otherwise alienated (collectively a “Transfer”) by the Grantee and any such Transfer or attempted Transfer, whether voluntary or involuntary, and if involuntary whether by process of law in any civil or criminal suit, action or proceeding, whether in the nature of an insolvency or bankruptcy proceeding or otherwise, shall be void and of no effect.

     3.  Vesting . Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the restrictions described in Section 2 of this Agreement will lapse with respect to 25% of the Restricted Stock on the third anniversary of the Grant Date and as to an additional 25% of the Restricted Stock on the fourth anniversary of the Grant Date and as to an additional 50% of the Restricted Stock on the fifth anniversary of the Grant Date (each a “Vesting Date”); provided , that , the Grantee is still employed or performing services for the Company on each such Vesting Date. In the event of the Grantee’s termination of employment or service prior to the date that all of the Restricted Stock is vested, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all Restricted Stock still subject to restriction shall be forfeited.

          (a) If the Grantee’s termination of employment or service is due to death and such death occurs prior to the date that all of the Restricted Stock is vested, all restrictions will lapse with respect to 100% of the Restricted Stock still subject to restriction on the date of death.

          (b) If the Grantee’s termination of employment or service is due to Disability (as defined herein) or Retirement (as defined herein) and such Disability or Retirement, as the case may be, occurs prior to the date that all of the Restricted Stock is vested, the Grantee shall be treated, for purposes of this Agreement only, as if his/her employment or service continued with the Company until the date that all restrictions on the Restricted Stock have lapsed (the “Extension Period”) and such Restricted Stock will vest in accordance with the schedule set forth herein; provided , that , if the Grantee dies during the Extension Period and the Restricted Stock has not been forfeited in accordance with Section 4(b), all restrictions will lapse with respect to 100% of the Restricted Stock still subject to restriction on the date of death. “Disability” shall mean (i) if the Grantee’s employment with the Company is subject to the terms of an employment or other service agreement between such Grantee and the Company, which agreement includes a definition of “Disability”, the term “Disability” shall have the meaning set forth in such agreement during the period that such agreement remains in effect; and (ii) in all other cases, the term “Disability” shall mean a physical or mental infirmity which impairs the

Grantee’s ability to perform substantially his or her duties for a period of one hundred eighty (180) consecutive days. “Retirement” shall mean the Grantee’s resignation from the Company on or after the date on which the sum of his/her (i) ful
