3. Transfer and Forfeiture of Shares. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, the Participant shall forfeit the Installments of the Covered Shares as of the Participant's Date of Termination, if such Date of Termination occurs prior to the end of the Restricted Period which applies to those Installments. If the Participant's Date of Termination has not occurred prior to the last day of the Restricted Period with respect to any Installment of the Covered Shares, then, at the end of such Restricted Period, that Installment of Covered Shares shall be transferred to the Participant free of all restrictions.
4. Withholding. All deliveries and distributions under the Restricted Stock Award Terms are subject to withholding of all applicable taxes. At the election of the Participant, and subject to such rules and limitations as may be established by the Committee from time to time, such withholding obligations may be satisfied through the surrender of shares of Stock which the Participant already owns, or to which the Participant is otherwise entitled under the Plan; provided, however, that such shares may be used to satisfy not more than the Company's minimum statutory withholding obligation (based on minimum statutory withholding rates for

Federal and state tax purposes, including payroll taxes, that are applicable to such supplemental taxable income).

Any dividends paid with respect to shares of Restricted Stock which remain subject to the restrictions hereunder shall also be subject to the same restrictions and risk of forfeiture as the shares of Restricted Stock and may be withheld by the Company until such restrictions lapse, pursuant to the procedures as may be established by the Committee from time to time.
7. Voting. The Participant shall not be prevented from voting the Restricted Stock Award merely because those shares are subject to the restrictions imposed by the Restricted Stock Award Terms and the Plan; provided, however, that the Participant shall not be entitled to vote Covered Shares with respect to record dates for any Covered Shares occurring on or after the date, if any, on which the Participant has forfeited those shares.
8. Deposit of Restricted Stock Award.

If any benefits deliverable to the Participant under the Restricted Stock Award Terms have not been delivered at the time of the Participant's death, such benefits shall be delivered to the Designated Beneficiary, in accordance with the provisions of the Restricted Stock Award Terms and the Plan. The "Designated Beneficiary" shall be the beneficiary or beneficiaries designated by the Participant in a writing filed with the Committee in such form and at such time as the Committee shall require.
