Such RSUs have vesting terms that are substantially identical to the awards they replace, and are subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan as well as an award agreement to be entered into by each such employee and the Company substantially in the form of Exhibit 10.1 hereto, which form was also approved by the Compensation Committee on June 9, 2014, and is incorporated herein by reference.
