RIGHT OF REPURCHASE. Unless and until the Repurchase Restricted Shares have become vested in accordance with the terms of the Award Notice, the Repurchase Restricted Shares shall be subject to a right (but not an obligation) of repurchase by the Company upon termination of the Grantee's employment. 2. EXERCISE NOTICE. In the event the Company wishes to exercise its Right of Repurchase, the Company shall provide the Grantee with five business days prior written notice of its intent to exercise its right. If such Right of Repurchase is to be exercised in connection with the termination of the Grantee's employment, the Company shall provide such notice not later than 90 days after termination of the Grantee's employment. Such notice shall contain the price per Share which shall be the repurchase price, described in paragraph 4 below, and all other terms and conditions of the offer (including, without limitation, the proposed consummation date of the repurchase). The repurchase price shall be paid in cash or by canceling of indebtedness owed by the Grantee to the Company, as the Company, in its sole discretion, shall determine. 3. LAPSE OF REPURCHASE RIGHT. The Right of Repurchase shall lapse with respect to the Repurchase Restricted Shares in accordance with the vesting schedule described in the Award Notice. 4. REPURCHASE PRICE. If the Company exercises the Right of Repurchase, it shall pay the Grantee (except as otherwise provided in the Award Notice) an amount for each of the Repurchase Restricted Shares equal to the lower of (i) Fair Market Value for each share or (ii) the Purchase Price, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 5 of this Exhibit A. Payment shall be made promptly by good check or as otherwise agreed by the parties. 5. ADDITIONAL SHARES OR SUBSTITUTED SECURITIES; ADJUSTMENT OF REPURCHASE PRICE. In the event of a stock dividend or stock split, recapitalization, reorganization or other transaction whereby the Grantee as a holder of Repurchase Restricted Shares receives additional Shares, such additional Shares shall automatically be subject to the Right of Repurchase to the same extent as the Repurchase Restricted Shares in respect of which such additional shares were issued, but the Purchase Price with respect to all the Repurchase Restricted Shares shall be equitably adjusted to account for such transaction as provided by the Committee. In the event of any other recapitalization, reorganization or similar extraordinary transaction, the Right of Repurchase shall be subject to equitable adjustment in accordance with Section 4 of this Agreement, including, if any securities are received by a Grantee in respect of Repurchase Restricted Shares, such securities being subject to the Right of Repurchase on such equitably adjusted terms. 6. TERMINATION OF RIGHTS AS STOCKHOLDER. If the Company makes available, at the time and place and in the amount and form provided in this Agreement, the consideration for the Repurchase Restricted Shares to be repurchased in accordance with the Right of Repurchase, then after such time the person from whom such Shares are to be purchased shall no longer have any rights as a holder of such Shares (other than the right to receive payment of such consideration in accordance with this Agreement). Such Shares shall be deemed to have been purchased in accordance with the applicable provisions hereof, whether or not the certificate(s) therefor have been delivered as required by this Agreement. 2
