     Sensient Technologies Corporation, a Wisconsin corporation (the “Company”) and the above-named Grantee hereby agree as follows:

     1.  Grant of Restricted Stock . In consideration of the continued employment of the Grantee for the periods herein defined, and in consideration of the Grantee having entered into a Noncompetition, Nonsolicitation and Confidentiality Agreement (or an agreement of similar purpose and effect, however titled) prior to or contemporaneous with this Agreement, the Company grants to the Grantee the Number of Shares of common stock, par value $0.10 per share, of the Company stated above (the “Restricted Stock”) upon the terms and conditions set forth herein.

     2.  Plan; Defined terms . This grant of Restricted Stock is made pursuant to the Company’s 2002 Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”) and is subject to each and all of the provisions of the Plan. A copy of the Plan is attached to this Agreement and is made a part hereof. The Plan was approved by the shareholders of the Company at the Company’s Annual Meeting held on April 25, 2002. All capitalized terms used in this Agreement, including the terms set forth in the table above, have the meanings assigned to them in this Agreement. Any capitalized terms that are not defined in this Agreement are defined in the Plan. Certain other terms used in this Agreement are also defined herein.

     3.  Period of Restriction . The Period of Restriction shall be as stated above.

     4.  Restrictions . The shares of Restricted Stock may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned or otherwise alienated during the Period of Restriction except as provided in Section 8.7 or 8.8 of the Plan or Section 6 of this Agreement.

     5.  Acquisition for Investment . The Grantee represents that he or she is acquiring the shares of Restricted Stock for investment purposes only and not with a view toward the redistribution, resale, or other disposition thereof.

     6.  Election to Sell Shares to the Company . The Grantee, or in the case of his or her death, his or her beneficiary or estate, may elect to sell to the Company, within sixty (60) days after the last day of the Period of Restriction, up to one-half ( 1 / 2 ) of the shares of Restricted Stock issued hereunder upon the conditions set forth in Section 8.8 of the Plan. Such election shall be exercised by delivering to the Secretary of the Company written notice specifying the number of shares of Restricted Stock to be sold and by tendering certificates for such shares, duly endorsed in blank or accompanied by stock powers

 


 

duly endorsed in blank. If the Company is precluded by law from purchasing the shares of Restricted Stock so tendered, it shall promptly return the same to the Grantee (or his or her beneficiary or estate).

     7.  Termination of Employment .

               (a) In the event that the Grantee terminates his or her employment with the Company because of normal retirement (under the terms of the Company’s Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”) in effect on the date of such termination of employment (or on the date the ESOP is terminated if not then in effect)), the Period of Restriction with respect to any shares of Restricted Stock held by the Grantee shall automatically terminate and (except as otherwise provided in Section 8.2 of the Plan) such shares shall thereafter be free of restrictions and freely transferable.

               (b) In the event that the Grantee terminates his or her employment with the Company because of “early retirement” (under the terms of the ESOP in effect on the date of such termination of employment (or on the date the ESOP is terminated if not then in effect)) the Committee may, in its sole discretion, waive the Period of Restriction and/or add such new restrictions to the Restricted Stock as it deems appropriate.

               (c) In the event the Grantee terminates his or her employment with the Company because of death or Disability during the Period of Restriction, the Period of Restriction shall terminate automatically with respect to that number of shares of Restricted Stock (rounded to the nearest whole number) equal to the total number of shares of Restricted Stock granted multiplied by the number of full months which have elapsed since the Grant Date divided by the maxim
