The Compensation Committee also approved the form of restricted stock unit agreements to be used in connection with restricted stock unit grants to executive officers pursuant to the Corporation's Executive Long Term Stock Program ("ELTSOP RSUs"). Both types of RSU grants are incentive and retention awards made pursuant to the Corporation's stockholder-approved 2004 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended and restated (the "2004 Plan"). There is no material relationship between the Corporation and recipients of ELTSOP awards, other than in respect of their employment with the Corporation. The two forms of Standard RSUs for U.S and non-U.S. employees set forth the terms and conditions of restricted stock units granted pursuant to the 2004 Plan and the Corporation's Standard RSU program. The two forms of ELTSOP RSUs for U.S. and non-U.S. employees set forth the terms and conditions of restricted stock units granted pursuant to the 2004 Plan and the Corporation's ELTSOP RSU program. The following description is qualified by reference to the terms of the forms of Standard and ELTSOP restricted stock agreements and the Notice of Grant, copies of which are filed with this Form 8-K, and to the terms of the 2004 Plan, a copy of which was filed as exhibit 10.1 to the Corporation's Form 8-K dated May 17, 2005. Standard and ELTSOP RSUs are subject to administration and interpretation by the committee of the Board of Directors designated pursuant to the plan, or by its delegate. Unvested Standard RSUs and ELTSOP RSUs are cancelled as of the date of employment termination as set forth in the form of Standard RSU and ELTSOP RSU agreements. Standard RSUs typically vest 25% annually beginning one year after the date of grant and ELTSOP RSUs typically vest 100% five years after the date of grant, subject to accelerated vesting upon death and Disablement and partial or accelerated vesting in certain cases upon Retirement. Both types of RSUs automatically convert to shares of common stock upon vesting and settlement of any tax withholding obligations. If employment is terminated due to misconduct or for reasons other than death, Disablement and, in certain cases, Retirement, the RSUs will be cancelled. Until RSUs have vested and shares issued thereunder, the RSUs do not provide recipients any rights of a stockholder and RSUs do not accrue dividend equivalent rights. Neither Standard RSUs nor ELTSOP RSUs are transferable. Where applicable, the Corporation uses country-specific Standard RSU and ELTSOP RSU agreements to comply with local laws.
