Each Performance Share Unit represents the right to receive one share of Common Stock upon satisfaction of the performance, vesting and other conditions set forth in this Agreement.

2.

(i)

“Total Shareholder Return” for a company (including the Company) shall be computed as the average closing stock price of the company’s common stock for the last fifteen (15) trading days of the Performance Period minus the average closing stock price of the company’s common stock for the first fifteen (15) trading days of the Performance Period plus the amount of dividends paid by the company per share of common stock during the Performance Period, divided by the average closing stock price of the company’s

(ii)

“Peer Companies” shall mean <<DESCRIBE PEER COMPANIES>> as of the last day of the Performance Period.

(a)

Vesting Determination. Subject to accelerated vesting or forfeiture as hereinafter provided, the Performance Share Units that are earned in accordance with Section 4 shall be vested and non-forfeitable (“Vested” or “Vesting”) as of the date the Committee certifies the performance results which certification date shall occur within the sixty (60) day period following the end of the Performance Period (the certification date is defined as the “Payment Date”), but only if the Participant has remained continuously employed with the Company or any of its subsidiaries through the Payment Date, except as provided in Section 5(b) below, and any unearned or unvested Performance Share Units shall be automatically forfeited to the Company and cancelled. The Performance Shares (as defined below) for the Performance Share Units that become Vested under this Section 5(a) shall be paid on the Payment Date.

(i)

Death or Disability: If the Participant does not remain continuously employed through the Payment Date due to the Participant’s death or permanent and total disability (within the meaning of Section 22(e)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code) (“Disability”), then a Pro-Rata Portion (rounded to the nearest whole Performance Share Unit) of the Performance Share Units earned based on the Committee’s determination of the level of achievement for the performance goals for the entire Performance Period in accordance with Section 4 shall become Vested on the later of (A) the last day of the Performance Period or (B) the earlier of the date of the Participant’s death or Disability and any unearned or unvested Performance Share Units shall be automatically forfeited to the Company and cancelled. The Performance Shares for the Performance Share Units that become Vested under this Section 5(b)(i) shall be paid to the Participant’s designated beneficiary (or, if none, to his estate) or to the Participant, whichever is applicable, on the Payment Date as defined in Section 5(a).

If the Participant timely executes and delivers such non-competition agreement, then a Pro-Rata Portion (rounded to the nearest whole Performance Share Unit) of the Performance Share Units earned based on the Committee’s determination of the level of achievement for the performance goals for the entire Performance Period in accordance with Section 4 shall become Vested on the later of the last day of the Performance Period or the date the Participant executes and delivers such non-competition agreement, and any unearned or unvested Performance Share Units shall be automatically forfeited to the Company and cancelled.  Notwithstanding the first sentence of this Section 5(b)(ii)(B), the Committee [for non-Section 16 officers: or its delegate] may, in its sole discretion, waive the requirement of the non-competition agreement and, in such case, such Pro-Rata Portion shall become Vested on the last day of the Performance Period, and any unearned or unvested Performance Share Units shall

(iii)

Other Retirements: If the Participant does not remain continuously employed through the Payment Date due to the Participant’s retirement that does not meet the standard for Normal Retirement, then, provided no Cause exists for the Company to terminate his employment at such time, the Committee [for non-Section 16 officers: or its delegate] may, in its sole discretion, waive the automatic forfeiture of any or all unvested Performance Share Units otherwise provided in Section 7 and provide for such Vesting and other restrictions as its deems appropriate, which may include requiring the Participant, if not already subject to a non-competition covenant pursuant to an existing agreement with the  Company or a subsidiary, to execute and deliver to the Company, no later than the date of termination of employment, a non-competition agreement in a form acceptable to the Company; provided, however, that any additional vesting provisions shall not extend Vesting beyond the original Payment Date and such Performance Share Units shall remain subject to the performance criteria set forth in Section 4 for the entire Performance Period and shall be subject to pro-ration. The Pro-Rata Portion (rounded to the nearest whole Performance Share Unit) of the Performance Share Units earned based on the Committee’s determination of the level of achievement for the performance goals for the entire Performance Period in accordance with Section 4 shall become Vested as provided by the Committee and any unearned or unvested Performance Share Units shall be automatically forfeited to the Company and cancelled.

If a Change in Control occurs on or before the end of the Performance Period, and provided the Participant has remained in employment with the Company or any of its subsidiaries until the Change in Control, the target number of Performance Share Units shall be deemed earned and shall become Vested and shall be paid upon the Change in Control. In the event a Change in Control occurs following the end of the Performance Period but before the Payment Date defined in Section 5(a), and provided the Participant has remained in employment with the Company or any of its subsidiaries until the Change in Control, the Performance Share Units that are earned in accordance with Section 4 shall become Vested and shall be paid upon the Change in Control. For purposes of this Agreement, a Change in Control (as defined in the Plan) will be deemed to have occurred with respect to the Participant only if an event relating to the Change in Control constitutes a change in ownership or effective control of the Company or a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Company within the meaning of Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-3(i)(5) (applied whether or not the Performance Share Units are subject to or exempt from Code Section 409A).
