|
The decrease in income tax benefit of
$2.1 million

during the
three months ended
March 31, 2014
, was primarily due to a
$0.6 million
decrease in earnings from unconsolidated entities (predominantly related to $0.8 million in lower equity earnings at the Company's investment in its Brazilian joint venture Plural), partially offset by an increase of
$0.2 million
of excluded noncontrolling interest in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations related to the Company's ownership of certain operations in Argentina.
|
(6)
|
Operating income, excluding restructuring, impairment and transaction-related charges, decreased
$2.1 million
(
$1.3 million
, net of tax) primarily due to a decline in earnings from ongoing industry volume and pricing pressures, as well as $3.1 million in favorable gains in 2013, that did not repeat in 2014, primarily related to a gain on the sale of Quad/Graphics' Brazilian operations in January 2013 to the Company's existing Brazilian joint venture with Plural. These declines were partially offset by lower employee-related costs. The following discussion provides additional details.

[[SHARESGRANTED]]
|
Vesting Schedule:
|
_______________ percent (___%) of the Restricted Shares will vest on _______________, provided you are continuously employed by the Company or an Affiliate of the Company until the vesting date.
|
•
|
If you are continuously employed with, or in the service of, the Company or its Affiliates through the date preceding the date of a “Change in Control” (as defined below), then 100% of the Restricted Shares will vest in full on the date of such Change in Control.
|

If your employment or service relationship with the Company and its Affiliates is terminated as a result of your death or disability (within the meaning of Code Section 22(e)(3)), then 100% of the Restricted Shares will vest in full on the date of such termination.
|
•
|
If your employment or service relationship with the Company and its Affiliates terminates as a result of your retirement upon or after age 65, then, provided such retirement is approved by an authorized senior executive of the Company (other than yourself) (your “Retirement”), a portion of the Restricted Shares will vest on the date of your Retirement. Such portion shall be equal to the total number of Restricted Shares multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days from the Vesting Commencement Date until the date of your Retirement and the denominator of which is the total number of days from the Vesting Commencement Date until the third anniversary of the Vesting Commencement Date.
|
Release of Shares:
|
The Restricted Shares will be held in an account at the Company’s transfer agent pending vesting. As soon as practicable after any Restricted Shares vest, the applicable restrictions on the Restricted Shares will be removed and such Shares will be issued according to your instructions.
|
Restricted Shares:
|
You may not sell, transfer or otherwise alienate or hypothecate any of your Restricted Shares until they are vested. In addition, by accepting this Award, you agree not to sell any Shares acquired under this Award other than as set forth in the Plan and at a time when applicable laws, Company policies or an agreement between the Company and its underwriters do not prohibit a sale. The Company also may require you to enter into a shareholder’s agreement that will include additional restrictions on the transfer of Shares acquired under this Award that will remain effective after such Shares have vested.
|
Voting and Dividends:
|
While the Restricted Shares are subject to forfeiture, you may exercise full voting rights so long as the applicable record date occurs before you forfeit the Restricted Shares. Any dividends or other distributions paid with respect to the Restricted Shares for which the record date occurs before you forfeit the Restricted Shares will be held in the custody of the Company and will be subject to the same risk of forfeiture, restrictions on transferability and other terms of this Award that apply to the Restricted Shares with respect to which such dividends or other distributions were made. All such dividends or other distributions shall be paid to you within 45 days following the full vesting of the Restricted Shares with respect to which such dividends or other distributions were made.
|
Transferability of Award:
|
You may not transfer or assign this Award for any reason, other than as set forth in the Plan. Any attempted transfer or assignment will be null and void.
|
Market Stand-Off:
|
In connection with any underwritten public offering by the Company of its equity securities pursuant to an effective registration statement filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, you agree that you shall not directly or indirectly sell, make any short sale of, loan, hypothecate, pledge, offer, grant or sell any option or other contract for the purchase of, purchase any option or other contract for the sale of, or otherwise dispose of or transfer or agree to engage in any of the foregoing transactions with respect to, any Shares acquired under this Award without the prior written consent of the Company. Such restriction shall be in effect for such period of time following the date of the final prospectus for the offering as may be determined by the Company. In no event, however, shall such period exceed one hundred eighty (180) days.
|
Tax Withholding:
|
You understand that you (and not the Company or any Affiliate) shall be responsible for your own federal, state, local or foreign tax liability and any of your other tax consequences that may arise as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Award. You shall rely solely on the determinations of your tax advisors or your own determinations, and not on any statements or representations by the Company or any of its agents, with regard to all such tax matters. You understand that you may alter the tax treatment of the Shares subject to this Award by filing an election under Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Such election may be filed only within thirty (30) days after the date of this Award.
You should consult with your tax advisor to determine the tax consequences of acquiring the Shares and the advantages and disadvantages of filing the Code Section 83(b) election. You acknowledge that it is your sole responsibility, and not the Company’s, to file a timely election under Code Section 83(b), even if you request the Company or its representatives to make this filing on your behalf.
|
Miscellaneous:
|
As a condition of the granting of this Restricted Stock Award, you agree, for yourself and your legal representatives or guardians, that this Restricted Stock Award shall be interpreted by the Committee and that any interpretation by the Committee of the terms of this Restricted Stock Award or the Plan and any determination made by the Committee pursuant to this Restricted Stock Award shall be final, binding and conclusive.
