[Exhibit A immediately follows]

EXHIBIT A

RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT

This Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement (this “Agreement”) governs the award of Restricted Stock Units to the Holder identified on the accompanying Grant Notice.

ARTICLE I.

GENERAL

Section 1.1 Defined Terms. Capitalized terms not specifically defined in this Agreement, including Annex A attached hereto, shall have the meanings specified in the Grant Notice.

ARTICLE II.

AWARD OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS

Section 2.1 Award of RSUs.

(a) In consideration of Holder’s employment with or service to a Participating Company and for other good and valuable consideration, effective as of the grant date set forth in the Grant Notice (the “Grant Date”), the Company has granted to Holder the number of RSUs set forth in the Grant Notice, upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Grant Notice and this Agreement, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.8 of this Agreement. Each RSU represents the right to receive one Share at the times and subject to the conditions set forth herein. However, unless and until the RSUs have vested, Holder will have no right to the payment of any Shares subject thereto. Prior to the actual delivery of any Shares, the RSUs will represent an unsecured obligation of the Company, payable only from the general assets of the Company.

(b) The RSUs are intended to constitute an “employment inducement grant” as described in NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635(c)(4), and consequently are intended to be exempt from the NASDAQ rules regarding shareholder approval of stock option or purchase plans or other equity compensation arrangements. This Agreement and the terms and conditions of the RSUs shall be interpreted in accordance and consistent with such exemption.

Section 2.2 Vesting of RSUs.

(a) Subject to Holder’s continued employment with or service to a Participating Company on each applicable vesting date and subject to the terms of this Agreement, the RSUs shall vest in such amounts and at such times as are set forth in the Grant Notice.

(b) In the event Holder incurs a Termination of Service, except as may be otherwise provided herein or by the Administrator or as set forth in a written agreement between Holder and the Company, Holder shall immediately forfeit any and all RSUs granted under this Agreement that have not vested or do not vest on or prior to the date on which such Termination of Service occurs, and Holder’s rights in any such RSUs that are not so vested shall lapse and expire.

(c) Notwithstanding the Grant Notice or the provisions of Section 2.2(a) and Section 2.2(b), in the event Holder incurs a Termination of Service for Cause, except as may be otherwise provided by the Administrator or as set forth in a written agreement between Holder and the Company, Holder shall immediately forfeit any and all RSUs granted under this Agreement (whether or not vested), and Holder’s rights in any such RSUs shall lapse and expire.

Section 2.3 Distribution or Payment of RSUs.

(a) Holder’s RSUs shall be distributed in Shares (either in book-entry form or otherwise) on or within two business days following each applicable vesting date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may delay a distribution or payment in settlement of RSUs if it reasonably determines that such payment or distribution will violate federal securities laws or any other Applicable Law, provided that such distribution or payment shall be made at the earliest date at which the Company reasonably determines that the making of such distribution or payment will not cause such violation, as required by Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(7)(ii), and provided further that no payment or distribution shall be delayed under this Section 2.3(a) if such delay will result in a violation of Section 409A.

(b) All distributions shall be made by the Company in the form of whole Shares, and any fractional share shall be distributed in cash in an amount equal to the value of such fractional share determined based on the Fair Market Value as of the date immediately preceding the date of such distribution.

Section 2.4 Conditions to Issuance of Certificates. The Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificate or certificates for any Shares or to cause any Shares to be held in book-entry form prior to the fulfillment of all of the following conditions: (a) the admission of the Shares to listing on all stock exchanges on which such Shares are then listed, (b) the completion of any registration or other qualification of the Shares under any state or federal law or under rulings or regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission or other governmental regulatory body, which the Administrator shall, in its absolute discretion, deem necessary or advisable, (c) the obtaining of any approval or other clearance from any state or federal governmental agency that the Administrator shall, in its absolute discretion, determine to be necessary or advisable, and (d) the receipt of full payment of any applicable withholding tax in accordance with Section 2.5 by the Participating Company with respect to which the applicable withholding obligation arises.

Section 2.5 Tax Withholding. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement:

(a) The Company (or any Participating Company, if applicable) shall have the authority and the right to deduct or withhold, or to require the Holder to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy all applicable federal, state and local taxes required by law to be withheld with respect to any taxable event arising in connection with the RSUs. In satisfaction of such tax withholding obligations and in accordance with the Sell to Cover Election included in the Grant Notice, the Holder has irrevocably elected to sell the portion of the Shares to be delivered under the RSUs necessary so as to satisfy the tax withholding obligations and shall execute any letter of instruction or agreement required by the Company’s transfer agent (together with any other party the Company determines necessary to execute the Sell to Cover Election,

the “Agent”) to cause the Agent to irrevocably commit to forward the proceeds necessary to satisfy the tax withholding obligations directly to the Company and/or its Affiliates. In accordance with ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Sell to Cover Election pursuant to the Grant Notice, the Holder hereby acknowledges and agrees:

(i) The Holder hereby appoints the Agent as the Holder’s agent and authorizes the Agent to (1) sell on the open market at the then prevailing market price(s), on the Holder’s behalf, as soon as practicable on or after the Shares are issued upon the vesting of the RSUs, that number (rounded up to the next whole number) of the Shares so issued necessary to generate proceeds to cover (x) any tax withholding obligations incurred with respect to such vesting or issuance and (y) all applicable fees and commissions due to, or required to be collected by, the Agent with respect thereto and (2) apply any remaining funds to the Holder’s federal tax withholding.

(ii) The Holder hereby authorizes the Company and the Agent to cooperate and communicate with one another to determine the number of Shares that must be sold pursuant to subsection (i) above.

(iii) The Holder understands that the Agent may effect sales as provided in subsection (i) above in one or more sales and that the average price for executions resulting from bunched orders will be assigned to the Holder’s account. In addition, the Holder acknowledges that it may not be possible to sell Shares as provided by subsection (i) above due to (1) a legal or contractual restriction applicable to the Holder or the Agent, (2) a market disruption, or (3) rules governing order execution priority on the national exchange where the Shares may be traded. The Holder further agrees and acknowledges that in the event the sale of Shares would result in material adverse harm to the Company, as determined by the Company in its sole discretion, the Company may instruct the Agent not to sell Shares as provided by subsection (i) above. In the event of the Agent’s inability to sell Shares, the Holder will continue to be responsible for the timely payment to the Company and/or its Affiliates of all federal, state, local and foreign taxes that are required by applicable laws and regulations to be withheld, including but not limited to those amounts specified in subsection (i) above.

(iv) The Holder acknowledges that regardless of any other term or condition of this Section 2.5(a), the Agent will not be liable to the Holder for (1) special, indirect, punitive, exemplary, or consequential damages, or incidental losses or damages of any kind, or (2) any failure to perform or for any delay in performance that results from a cause or circumstance that is beyond its reasonable control.

(v) The Holder hereby agrees to execute and deliver to the Agent any other agreements or documents as the Agent reasonably deems necessary or appropriate to carry out the purposes and intent of this Section 2.5(a). The Agent is a third-party beneficiary of this Section 2.5(a).

(vi) This Section 2.5(a) shall terminate not later than the date on which all tax withholding obligations arising in connection with the vesting and/or settlement of the Award have been satisfied.

(b) The Company shall not be obligated to deliver any certificate representing Shares issuable with respect to the RSUs to, or to cause any such Shares to be held in book-entry form by, Holder or his or her legal representative unless and until Holder or his or her legal representative shall have paid or otherwise satisfied in full the amount of all federal, state, local and foreign taxes applicable with respect to the taxable income of Holder resulting from the vesting or settlement of the RSUs or any other taxable event related to the RSUs.

(c) ▇▇▇▇▇▇ is ultimately liable and responsible for all taxes owed in connection with the RSUs, regardless of any action the Company or any other Participating Company takes with respect to any tax withholding obligations that arise in connection with the RSUs. No Participating Company makes any representation or undertaking regarding the treatment of any tax withholding in connection with the awarding, vesting or payment of the RSUs or the subsequent sale of Shares. The Participating Companies do not commit and are under no obligation to structure the RSUs to reduce or eliminate Holder’s tax liability.

Section 2.6 Rights as Stockholder. Neither Holder nor any Person claiming under or through Holder will have any of the rights or privileges of a stockholder of the Company in respect of any Shares deliverable hereunder unless and until certificates representing such Shares (which may be in book-entry form) will have been issued and recorded on the records of the Company or its transfer agents or registrars and delivered to Holder (including through electronic delivery to a brokerage account). Except as otherwise provided herein, after such issuance, recordation and delivery, Holder will have all the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to such Shares, including, without limitation, the right to receipt of dividends and distributions on such Shares.

Section 2.7 Restrictive Covenants; Forfeiture. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event the Holder breaches any restrictive covenant agreement between the Holder and any Participating Company or any other written agreement between the Holder and any Participating Company, in addition to any other damages available at law or in equity, then, (i) any portion of the Award that has not been distributed to the Holder prior to the date of such violation shall thereupon be forfeited and (ii) the Holder shall be required to pay to the Company the amount of all RSU Gain (as defined below). “RSU Gain” shall mean an amount equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock that have been distributed pursuant to this RSU Award and (ii) the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the date(s) of such distribution.

Section 2.8 Changes in Common Stock or Assets of the Company, Acquisition or Liquidation of the Company and Other Corporate Events.

(a) In the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or exchange of shares, merger, consolidation or other distribution (other than normal cash dividends) of Company assets to stockholders, or any other change affecting the shares of the Company’s stock or the share price of the Company’s stock other than an Equity Restructuring, the Administrator may make equitable adjustments to reflect such change with respect to: (i) the number and kind of Shares (or other securities or property) subject to this Award and (ii) the terms and conditions of this Award (including, without limitation, any applicable performance targets or criteria with respect thereto).

(b) In the event of any transaction or event described in Section 2.8(a) or any unusual or nonrecurring transactions or events affecting the Company, any Affiliate of the Company, or the financial statements of the Company or any Affiliate, or of changes in Applicable Law or Applicable Accounting Standards, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, and on such terms and conditions as it deems appropriate, either by the terms of this Award or by action taken prior to the occurrence of such transaction or event, is hereby authorized to take any one or more of the following actions whenever the Administrator determines that such action is appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under this Award, to facilitate such transactions or events or to give effect to such changes in Applicable Law or Applicable Accounting Standards:

(i) To provide for the termination of this Award in exchange for an amount of cash and/or other property with a value equal to the amount that would have been attained upon the realization of the Holder’s rights (and, for the avoidance of doubt, if as of the date of the occurrence of the transaction or event described in this Section 2.8 the Administrator determines in good faith that no amount would have been attained upon the realization of the Holder’s rights, then this Award may be terminated by the Company without payment);

(ii) To provide that this Award be assumed by the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, or shall be substituted for by similar options, rights or awards covering the stock of the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kind of shares, in all cases, as determined by the Administrator;

(iii) To make adjustments in the number and type of Shares of the Company’s stock (or other securities or property) subject to this Award, and/or in the terms and conditions of, and the criteria included in, this Award;

(iv) To provide that this Award shall be fully vested with respect to all Shares covered hereby, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement;

(v) To replace this Award with other rights or property selected by the Administrator; and/or

(vi) To provide that this Award cannot vest or become payable after such event.

(c) In connection with the occurrence of any Equity Restructuring, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Sections 2.8(a) and 2.8(b), the number and type of securities subject to this Award shall be equitably adjusted (and the adjustments provided under this Section 2.8(c) shall be nondiscretionary and shall be final and binding on the Holder and the Company); and/or

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Award, in the event of a Change in Control, unless the Administrator elects to (i) terminate this Award in exchange for cash, rights or property, or (ii) cause this Award to become fully vested and no longer subject to any forfeiture restrictions prior to the consummation of a Change in Control, this Award shall continue in effect or be assumed or an equivalent award (which may include, without limitation,

an award settled in cash) substituted by the successor corporation or a parent or subsidiary of the successor corporation. In the event this Award continues in effect or is assumed or an equivalent award substituted, and the Holder incurs a Termination of Service without Cause upon or within 12 months following the Change in Control, then the Holder shall be fully vested in such continued, assumed or substituted award.

(e) In the event that the successor corporation in a Change in Control refuses to assume or substitute this Award, the Administrator may cause (i) any or all of this Award (or portion thereof) to terminate in exchange for cash, rights or other property pursuant to Section 2.8(b)(i), or (ii) any or all of this Award (or portion thereof) to become fully vested immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction and all forfeiture restrictions on any or all of this Award to lapse.

(f) For the purposes of this Section 2.8, this Award shall be considered assumed if, following the Change in Control, this Award confers the right to purchase or receive, for each Share subject to this Award immediately prior to the Change in Control, the consideration (whether stock, cash, or other securities or property) received in the Change in Control by holders of Common Stock for each Share held on the effective date of the transaction (and if holders were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding Shares); provided, however, that if such consideration received in the Change in Control was not solely common stock of the successor corporation or its parent, the Administrator may, with the consent of the successor corporation, provide for the consideration to be received for each Share subject to this Award, to be solely common stock of the successor corporation or its parent equal in fair market value to the per-share consideration received by holders of Common Stock in the Change in Control.

(g) Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, no adjustment or action described in this Section 2.8 or in any other provision of this Award shall be authorized to the extent it would (i) result in short-swing profits liability under Section 16 of the Exchange Act or violate the exemptive conditions of Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act, or (ii) cause this Award to fail to be exempt from or comply with Section 409A.

(h) The existence of this Award shall not affect or restrict in any way the right or power of the Company or the stockholders of the Company to make or authorize any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization or other change in the Company’s capital structure or its business, any merger or consolidation of the Company, any issue of stock or of options, warrants or rights to purchase stock or of bonds, debentures, preferred or prior preference stocks whose rights are superior to or affect the Common Stock or the rights thereof or which are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, or the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of its assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise.

(i) In the event of any pending stock dividend, stock split, combination or exchange of shares, merger, consolidation or other distribution (other than normal cash dividends) of Company assets to stockholders, or any other change affecting the Shares or the share price of the Common Stock including any Equity Restructuring, for reasons of administrative convenience, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may refuse to permit the settlement of this Award during a period of up to 30 days prior to the consummation of any such transaction.
