Item 4. | Description of Securities. |
Not applicable.
Item 5. | Interests of Named Experts and Counsel. |
Not applicable.
Item 6. | Indemnification of Directors and Officers. |
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (DGCL) provides that a corporation may indemnify directors and officers as well as other employees and individuals against expenses (including attorneys fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with any threatened, pending or completed actions, suits or proceedings in which such person is made a party or who is threatened to be made a party by reason of such person being or having been a director, officer, employee of or agent to the registrant. The statute provides that it is not exclusive of other rights to which those seeking indemnification may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.
As permitted by the DGCL, our certificate of incorporation includes a provision that eliminates the personal liability of our directors for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except to the extent such exemption from liability is not permitted by DGCL.
As permitted by the DGCL, our bylaws provide that (1) we are required to indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, subject to certain exceptions; (2) we are permitted to indemnify our other employees and agents to the extent that we indemnify our officers and directors; (3) we are required to advance expenses, as incurred, to our directors and officers in connection with any legal proceeding, subject to certain exceptions; and (4) the rights conferred in our bylaws are not exclusive.
We have entered into indemnification agreements with our directors and officers. The indemnification agreements provide for indemnification and advancement of expenses to our directors and officers under certain circumstances for acts or omissions to the extent permissible under Delaware law. We also maintain directors and officers liability insurance, which insures against liabilities that our directors or officers may incur in such capacities.
Item 7. | Exemption from Registration Claimed. |
Not applicable.
Item 8. | Exhibits. |
Item 9. | Undertakings. |
(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the Calculation of Registration Fee table in the effective Registration Statement;
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement;
provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrants annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plans annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

The opinion expressed herein is limited to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as currently in effect, and we express no opinion as to the effect of the laws of any other jurisdiction on the opinion expressed herein. In addition, we have assumed that the resolutions authorizing the Company to issue or deliver and sell the Shares pursuant to the Plan and the Award Agreements will be in full force and effect at all times at which the Shares are issued or delivered and sold by the Company, and that the Company will take no action inconsistent with such resolutions. In rendering the opinion above, we have assumed that each award under the Plan will be approved by the Board of Directors of the Company or an authorized committee of the Board of Directors.

3.1 Grant of Units. On the Date of Grant, the Participant shall acquire, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Total Number of Restricted Stock Units set forth in the Grant Notice, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 3.3 and Section 9. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Grant Notice, this Agreement and the Plan, each Unit represents a right to receive on a date determined in accordance with the Grant Notice and this Agreement one (1) share of Stock.
3.2 No Monetary Payment Required. The Participant is not required to make any monetary payment (other than applicable tax withholding, if any) as a condition to receiving the Units or shares of Stock issued upon settlement of the Units, the consideration for which shall be past services actually rendered or future services to be rendered to a Participating Company or for its benefit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if required by applicable law, the Participant shall furnish consideration in the form of cash or past services rendered to a Participating Company or for its benefit having a value not less than the par value of the shares of Stock issued upon settlement of the Units.
3.3 Dividend Equivalent Units. On the date that the Company pays a cash dividend to holders of Stock generally, the Participant shall be credited with a number of additional whole Dividend Equivalent Units determined by dividing (a) the product of (i) the dollar amount of the cash dividend paid per share of Stock on such date and (ii) the total number of Restricted Stock Units and Dividend Equivalent Units previously credited to the Participant pursuant to the Award and which have not been settled or forfeited pursuant to Section 4 below as of such date, by (b) the Fair Market Value per share of Stock on such date. Any resulting fractional Dividend Equivalent Unit shall be rounded to the nearest whole number. Such additional Dividend Equivalent Units shall be subject to the same terms and conditions and shall be settled or forfeited in the same manner and at the same time as the Restricted Stock Units originally subject to the Award with respect to which they have been credited.
4. | VESTING OF UNITS. |
Units acquired pursuant to this Agreement shall become Vested Units as provided in the Grant Notice. Dividend Equivalent Units shall become Vested Units at the same time as the Restricted Stock Units originally subject to the Award with respect to which they have been credited.
2
5. | FORFEITURE OF UNITS. |
Except to the extent expressly provided otherwise in an agreement between the Participant and the Company, in the event that the Participants Service terminates for any reason or no reason, with or without cause, insofar as permitted under Local Law the Participant shall forfeit and the Company shall automatically reacquire all Units which are not, as of the time of such termination, Vested Units, and the Participant shall not be entitled to any payment therefor.
6. | SETTLEMENT OF THE AWARD. |
6.1 Issuance of Shares of Stock. Subject to the provisions of Section 6.3 and Section 8, on or as soon as reasonably practicable following the date upon which the Participants Service terminates for any reason (the Termination Date), but in no event later than the later of (i) the last day of the year in which the Termination Date occurs and (ii) the fifteenth day of the third calendar month following the Termination Date (such applicable date, the Settlement Date), the Company shall issue to the Participant with respect to each Unit that is a Vested Unit as of the Termination Date one (1) share of Stock. Shares of Stock issued in settlement of Units shall not be subject to any restriction on transfer other than any such restriction as may be required pursuant to Section 6.3, Section 7 or the Companys Securities Trading Policy.
6.2 Beneficial Ownership of Shares; Certificate Registration. The Participant hereby authorizes the Company, in its sole discretion, to deposit any or all shares acquired by the Participant pursuant to the settlement of the Award with the Companys transfer agent, including any successor transfer agent, to be held in book entry form, or to deposit such shares for the benefit of the Participant with any broker with which the Participant has an account relationship of which the Company has notice. Except as provided by the foregoing, a certificate for the shares acquired by the Participant shall be registered in the name of the Participant, or, if applicable, in the names of the heirs of the Participant.
6.3 Restrictions on Grant of the Award and Issuance of Shares. The grant of the Award and issuance of shares of Stock upon settlement of the Award shall be subject to compliance with all applicable requirements of United States federal, state law and Local Law with respect to such securities. No shares of Stock may be issued hereunder if the issuance of such shares would constitute a violation of any applicable United States federal, state, or Local Law or other law or regulations or the requirements of any stock exchange or market system upon which the Stock may then be listed. The inability of the Company to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority, if any, deemed by the Companys legal counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance of any shares subject to the Award shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue such shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained. As a condition to the settlement of the Award, the Company may require the Participant to satisfy any qualifications that may be necessary or appropriate, to evidence compliance with any applicable law or regulation and to make any representation or warranty with respect thereto as may be requested by the Company.
6.4 Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue fractional shares upon the settlement of the Award.
3
7. | TAX WITHHOLDING. |
7.1 In General. At the time the Grant Notice is executed, or at any time thereafter as requested by a Participating Company, the Participant hereby authorizes withholding from payroll and any other amounts payable to the Participant, and otherwise agrees to make adequate provision for, any sums required to satisfy the federal, state, local and non-U.S. tax (including any social insurance) withholding obligations of the Participating Company, if any, which arise in connection with the Award, the vesting of Units or the issuance of shares of Stock in settlement thereof. The Company shall have no obligation to deliver shares of Stock until the tax withholding obligations of the Participating Company have been satisfied by the Participant.
7.2 Assignment of Sale Proceeds. Subject to compliance with applicable law and the Companys Securities Trading Policy, if permitted by the Company, the Participant may satisfy the Participating Companys tax withholding obligations in accordance with procedures established by the Company providing for delivery by the Participant to the Company or a broker approved by the Company of properly executed instructions, in a form approved by the Company, providing for the assignment to the Company of the proceeds of a sale with respect to some or all of the shares being acquired upon settlement of Units.
7.3 Withholding in Shares. The Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to require the Participant to satisfy all or any portion of a Participating Companys tax withholding obligations by deducting from the shares of Stock otherwise deliverable to the Participant in settlement of the Award a number of whole shares having a fair market value, as determined by the Company as of the date on which the tax withholding obligations arise, not in excess of the amount of such tax withholding obligations determined by the applicable minimum statutory withholding rates.
8. | EFFECT OF CHANGE IN CONTROL. |
In the event of a Change in Control, all Units granted hereunder shall automatically become Vested Units and shall be settled, paid, continued or substituted, as determined by the Committee, in connection with such Change in Control in accordance with the terms of the Plan.
9. | ADJUSTMENTS FOR CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE. |
Subject to any required action by the stockholders of the Company and the requirements of Section 409A to the extent applicable, in the event of any change in the Stock effected without receipt of consideration by the Company, whether through merger, consolidation, reorganization, reincorporation, recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, split-up, split-off, spin-off, combination of shares, exchange of shares, or similar change in the capital structure of the Company, or in the event of payment of a dividend or distribution to the stockholders of the Company in a form other than Stock (other than regular, periodic cash dividends paid on Stock pursuant to the Companys dividend policy) that has a material effect on the Fair Market Value of shares of Stock, or any other corporate transaction or event having an effect similar to any of the foregoing, appropriate and proportionate adjustments shall be made in the number of Units subject to the Award and/or the number and kind of shares or other property to be issued in settlement of the Award, in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the
4
Participants rights under the Award. For purposes of the foregoing, conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be treated as effected without receipt of consideration by the Company. Any and all new, substituted or additional securities or other property (other than regular, periodic cash dividends paid on Stock pursuant to the Companys dividend policy, which shall be treated in accordance with Section 3.3) to which the Participant is entitled by reason of ownership of Units acquired pursuant to this Award will be immediately subject to the provisions of this Award on the same basis as all Units originally acquired hereunder. Any fractional Unit or share resulting from an adjustment pursuant to this Section shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number. Such adjustments shall be determined by the Committee, and its determination shall be final, binding and conclusive.
10. | RIGHTS AS A STOCKHOLDER, DIRECTOR, EMPLOYEE OR CONSULTANT. |
The Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares which may be issued in settlement of this Award until the date of the issuance of such shares (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company). No adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date the shares are issued, except as provided in Section 3.3 and Section 9. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue in the Service of a Participating Company or interfere in any way with any right of the Participating Company Group to terminate the Participants Service at any time.
11. | LEGENDS. |
The Company may at any time place legends referencing any applicable United States federal, state or non-U.S. securities law, including Local Law, restrictions on all certificates representing shares of stock issued pursuant to this Agreement. The Participant shall, at the request of the Company, promptly present to the Company any and all certificates representing shares acquired pursuant to this Award in the possession of the Participant in order to carry out the provisions of this Section.
12. | COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 409A. |
To the extent applicable, it is intended that any election, payment or benefit which is made or provided pursuant to or in connection with this Award that may result in Section 409A Deferred Compensation shall comply in all respects with the applicable requirements of Section 409A (including applicable regulations or other administrative guidance thereunder, as determined by the Committee in good faith) to avoid the unfavorable tax consequences provided therein for non-compliance.

1
2.2 Employment Conditions. By accepting the Award, the Participant acknowledges and agrees that:
(a) Any notice period mandated under Local Law shall not be treated as Service for the purpose of determining the vesting of the Award; and the Participants right to receive shares in settlement of the Award after termination of Service, if any, will be measured by the date of termination of the Participants active Service and will not be extended by any notice period mandated under Local Law. Subject to the foregoing and the provisions of the Plan, the Company, in its sole discretion, shall determine whether the Participants Service has terminated and the effective date of such termination.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Grant Notice, if the Participants employment is terminated by the Company without Cause or if the Participant resigns for Good Reason, in each case not in connection with a CIC Qualified Termination (each as defined in the Participants employment agreement with the Company) and prior to the settlement of the Award, the Participant will vest in a pro rata portion of the next tranche of Restricted Stock Units scheduled to vest hereunder, determined by multiplying the number of unvested Restricted Stock Units in such tranche by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full months from the last vesting date (or, if none, the Grant Date) to the date of such termination and the denominator of which is the number of full months from the last vesting date (or, if none, the Grant Date) to the next vesting date.

(e) The Plan is established voluntarily by the Company. It is discretionary in nature and it may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time, unless otherwise provided in the Plan and this Agreement.

(i) The Participant is voluntarily participating in the Plan.
(j) The Award and resulting shares, if any, are an extraordinary item that does not constitute compensation of any kind for Service of any kind rendered to any Participating Company, and which is outside the scope of the Participants employment contract, if any.

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Grant Notice, this Agreement and the Plan, each Unit represents a right to receive on a date determined in accordance with the Grant Notice and this Agreement one (1) share of Stock.
4.2 No Monetary Payment Required. The Participant is not required to make any monetary payment (other than applicable tax withholding, if any) as a condition to receiving the Units or shares of Stock issued upon settlement of the Units, the consideration for which shall be past services actually rendered or future services to be rendered to a Participating Company or for its benefit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if required by applicable law, the Participant shall furnish consideration in the form of cash or past services rendered to a Participating Company or for its benefit having a value not less than the par value of the shares of Stock issued upon settlement of the Units.
4
4.3 Dividend Equivalent Units. On the date that the Company pays a cash dividend to holders of Stock generally, the Participant shall be credited with a number of additional whole Dividend Equivalent Units determined by dividing (a) the product of (i) the dollar amount of the cash dividend paid per share of Stock on such date and (ii) the total number of Restricted Stock Units and Dividend Equivalent Units previously credited to the Participant pursuant to the Award and which have not been settled or forfeited pursuant to Section 6 below as of such date, by (b) the Fair Market Value per share of Stock on such date. Any resulting fractional Dividend Equivalent Unit shall be rounded to the nearest whole number. Such additional Dividend Equivalent Units shall be subject to the same terms and conditions and shall be settled or forfeited in the same manner and at the same time as the Restricted Stock Units originally subject to the Award with respect to which they have been credited.
5. | VESTING OF UNITS. |
Units acquired pursuant to this Agreement shall become Vested Units as provided in the Grant Notice. Dividend Equivalent Units shall become Vested Units at the same time as the Restricted Stock Units originally subject to the Award with respect to which they have been credited.
6. | FORFEITURE OF UNITS. |
In the event that the Participants Service with a Participating Company is terminated by the Participating Company for Cause, insofar as permitted under Local Law the Participant shall forfeit and the Company shall automatically reacquire all Units (whether vested or unvested), and the Participant shall not be entitled to any payment therefor.
7. | Settlement of the Award. |
7.1 Issuance of Shares of Stock. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.3 below, as soon as reasonably practicable following the date upon which Units vest (such date, the Settlement Date) (but in no event later than March 15th of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Units vest), the Company shall issue to the Participant with respect to each such Vested Unit one (1) share of Stock. Shares of Stock issued in settlement of Units shall not be subject to any restriction on transfer other than any such restriction as may be required pursuant to Section 7.3, Section 7 or the Companys Securities Trading Policy or any stock ownership guidelines or holding period guidelines established by the Board from time to time.
7.2 Beneficial Ownership of Shares; Certificate Registration. The Participant hereby authorizes the Company, in its sole discretion, to deposit any or all shares acquired by the Participant pursuant to the settlement of the Award with the Companys transfer agent, including any successor transfer agent, to be held in book entry form, or to deposit such shares for the benefit of the Participant with any broker with which the Participant has an account relationship of which the Company has notice. Except as provided by the foregoing, a certificate for the shares acquired by the Participant shall be registered in the name of the Participant, or, if applicable, in the names of the heirs of the Participant.
5
7.3 Restrictions on Grant of the Award and Issuance of Shares. The grant of the Award and issuance of shares of Stock upon settlement of the Award shall be subject to compliance with all applicable requirements of United States federal, state law and Local Law with respect to such securities. No shares of Stock may be issued hereunder if the issuance of such shares would constitute a violation of any applicable United States federal, state, or Local Law, or other law or regulations or the requirements of any stock exchange or market system upon which the Stock may then be listed. The inability of the Company to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority, if any, or the impracticality of doing so, deemed by the Companys legal counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance of any shares subject to the Award shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue such shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained. As a condition to the settlement of the Award, the Company may require the Participant to satisfy any qualifications that may be necessary or appropriate, to evidence compliance with any applicable law or regulation and to make any representation or warranty with respect thereto as may be requested by the Company.
7.4 Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue fractional shares upon the settlement of the Award.
8. | TAX WITHHOLDING. |
Regardless of any action the Company or the Participants employer (the Employer) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (Tax-Related Items), the Participant acknowledges and agrees that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by the Participant is and remains the Participants responsibility and that the Company and/or the Employer (i) make no representations nor undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of this grant of Units, including the grant and vesting of Units, subsequent delivery of shares and/or cash related to such Units or the subsequent sale of any shares acquired pursuant to such Units and receipt of any dividend equivalent payments (if any) and (ii) do not commit to structure the terms or any aspect of this grant of Units to reduce or eliminate the Participants liability for Tax-Related Items.
The Participant shall satisfy Tax-Related Items by having the Company or the Employer deduct from shares of Stock otherwise deliverable to the Participant in settlement of the Award a number of whole shares having a Fair Market Value not in excess of the amount of such Tax-Related Items determined by the maximum applicable statutory withholding rates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may instead, upon notice to the Participant, require the Participant to pay the Company or the Employer in cash any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold as a result of the Participants participation in the Plan or the Participants receipt of Units (including, without limitation, by the Employer withholding such amounts from the Participants wages, which the Participant hereby authorizes). If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding a number of shares as described herein, the Participant understands that he or she will be deemed to have been issued the full number of shares subject to the settled Units, notwithstanding that a number of shares are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of the settlement of the Units. Further, if the Participant is subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction, the Participant acknowledges that the Company and/or Employer (or former Employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction. The Company may refuse to deliver the shares if the Participant fails to comply with the Participants obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.
6
The Participant acknowledges and understands that the Participant should consult a tax adviser regarding the Participants tax obligations prior to such settlement or disposition.
9. | ADJUSTMENTS FOR CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE. |
Subject to any required action by the stockholders of the Company and the requirements of Section 409A, to the extent applicable, in the event of any change in the Stock effected without receipt of consideration by the Company, whether through merger, consolidation, reorganization, reincorporation, recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, split-up, split-off, spin-off, combination of shares, exchange of shares, or similar change in the capital structure of the Company, or in the event of payment of a dividend or distribution to the stockholders of the Company in a form other than Stock (other than regular, periodic cash dividends paid on Stock pursuant to the Companys dividend policy) that has a material effect on the Fair Market Value of shares of Stock, or any other corporate transaction or event having an effect similar to any of the foregoing, appropriate and proportionate adjustments shall be made in the number of Units subject to the Award and/or the number and kind of shares or other property to be issued in settlement of the Award, in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the Participants rights under the Award. For purposes of the foregoing, conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be treated as effected without receipt of consideration by the Company. Any and all new, substituted or additional securities or other property (other than regular, periodic cash dividends paid on Stock pursuant to the Companys dividend policy, which shall be treated in accordance with Section 4.3) to which the Participant is entitled by reason of ownership of Units acquired pursuant to this Award will be immediately subject to the provisions of this Award on the same basis as all Units originally acquired hereunder. Any fractional Unit or share resulting from an adjustment pursuant to this Section shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number. Such adjustments shall be determined by the Committee, and its determination shall be final, binding and conclusive.
10. | RIGHTS AS A STOCKHOLDER, DIRECTOR, EMPLOYEE OR CONSULTANT. |
The Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares which may be issued in settlement of this Award until the date of the issuance of such shares (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company). No adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date the shares are issued, except as provided in Section 4.3 and Section 9. If the Participant is an Employee, the Participant understands and acknowledges that, except as otherwise provided in a separate, written employment agreement between a Participating Company and the Participant, the Participants employment is at will and is for no specified term unless otherwise required under applicable law. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue in the Service of a Participating Company or interfere in any way with any right of the Participating Company Group to terminate the Participants Service at any time.
7
11. | LEGENDS. |
The Company may at any time place legends referencing any applicable United States federal, state or non-U.S. securities law, including Local Law, restrictions on all certificates representing shares of stock issued pursuant to this Agreement. The Participant shall, at the request of the Company, promptly present to the Company any and all certificates representing shares acquired pursuant to this Award in the possession of the Participant in order to carry out the provisions of this Section.
12. | MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS. |
12.1 Termination or Amendment. The Committee may terminate or amend the Plan or this Agreement at any time; provided, however, that except as set forth in Section 9 or in connection with a Change in Control, no such termination or amendment may adversely affect the Participants rights under this Agreement without the consent of the Participant unless such termination or amendment is necessary to comply with applicable law or government regulation. No amendment or addition to this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing.
12.2 Nontransferability of the Award. Prior to the issuance of shares of Stock on the applicable Settlement Date, neither this Award nor any Units subject to this Award shall be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, exchange, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, or garnishment by creditors of the Participant or the Participants beneficiary, except transfer by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. All rights with respect to the Award shall be exercisable during the Participants lifetime only by the Participant or the Participants guardian or legal representative.
12.3 Further Instruments. The parties hereto agree to execute such further instruments and to take such further action as may reasonably be necessary to carry out the intent of this Agreement.

1.2 Construction. Captions and titles contained herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of any provision of this Agreement. Except when otherwise indicated by the context, the singular shall include the plural and the plural shall include the singular.

2.2 Employment Conditions. By accepting the Award, the Participant acknowledges and agrees that:
1
(a) Any notice period mandated under Local Law shall not be treated as Service for the purpose of determining the vesting of the Award; and the Participants right to receive shares in settlement of the Award after termination of Service, if any, will be measured by the date of termination of the Participants active Service and will not be extended by any notice period mandated under Local Law. Subject to the foregoing and the provisions of the Plan, the Company, in its sole discretion, shall determine whether the Participants Service has terminated and the effective date of such termination.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Grant Notice, if the Participant is terminated without Cause or resigns for Good Reason, in each case not in connection with a CIC Qualified Termination (each as defined in the Participants employment agreement with the Company) prior to the settlement of the Award, the Participant will remain eligible to vest (determined in accordance with the terms set forth in the Grant Notice) in a pro rata portion of the Restricted Stock Units on the Certification Date following the end of the Performance Period based on actual Company performance, with such pro rata portion determined by multiplying the total number of Restricted Stock Units remaining outstanding and unvested immediately prior to such termination by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full months that the Participant provided continuous Service during the Performance Period, and the denominator of which is the number of full months in the full Performance Period. All Restricted Stock Units in excess of the pro rata portion thereof that remains outstanding in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence shall immediately be forfeited and cancelled, and the Participant shall not be entitled to any compensation or other amount with respect thereto. If a Change in Control occurs upon or following such termination and prior to the end of the Performance Period, then the Restricted Stock Units remaining outstanding and unvested immediately prior to the Change in Control (after application of the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.2(b)) shall vest and become nonforfeitable at the target level of achievement (determined in accordance with the Grant Notice) immediately upon the occurrence of the Change in Control and the date that the Change in Control is consummated shall be the Settlement Date for purposes of Section 7 hereof.
(c) If the Participant incurs a CIC Qualified Termination, all outstanding and unvested Units (if any) will fully vest on the date of such termination at the target level of achievement (determined in accordance with the Grant Notice).
(d) The vesting of the Award shall cease upon, and no Units shall vest following, the Participants termination of Service for any reason other than as set forth in Section 2.2 (b) or (c). Further, all unvested Units will be forfeited and cancelled and the Participant will not be entitled to any compensation or other amount with respect thereto.
(e) The Plan is established voluntarily by the Company. It is discretionary in nature and it may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time, unless otherwise provided in the Plan and this Agreement.
(f) The grant of the Award is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of Awards, or benefits in lieu of Awards, even if Awards have been granted repeatedly in the past.
2
(g) All decisions with respect to future Award grants, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company.
(h) The Participants participation in the Plan shall not create a right to further Service with any Participating Company and shall not interfere with the ability of any Participating Company to terminate the Participants Service at any time, with or without Cause, insofar as permitted under Local Law.
(i) The Participant is voluntarily participating in the Plan.
(j) The Award and resulting shares, if any, are an extraordinary item that does not constitute compensation of any kind for Service of any kind rendered to any Participating Company, and which is outside the scope of the Participants employment contract, if any.
(k) The Award is not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purpose, including, but not limited to, calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, end-of-service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement benefits or similar payments.
(l) In the event that the Participant is not an employee of the Company, the Award grant will not be interpreted to form an employment contract or relationship with the Company; and furthermore the Award grant will not be interpreted to form an employment contract with any other Participating Company.
(m) The future value of the underlying shares is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty. If the Participant obtains shares upon settlement of the Award, the value of those shares may increase or decrease.
(n) In consideration of the grant of an Award, no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages arises from termination of the Award or diminution in value of the Award or shares acquired upon settlement of the Award resulting from termination of the Participants Service (for any reason whether or not in breach of Local Law) and the Participant irrevocably releases the Company and each other Participating Company from any such claim that may arise. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen then, by signing this Agreement, the Participant shall be deemed irrevocably to have waived the Participants entitlement to pursue such a claim.
2.3 Data Privacy Consent.
(A) THE PARTICIPANT HEREBY EXPLICITLY AND UNAMBIGUOUSLY CONSENTS TO THE COLLECTION, USE AND TRANSFER, IN ELECTRONIC OR OTHER FORM, OF THE PARTICIPANTS PERSONAL DATA AS DESCRIBED IN THIS DOCUMENT BY AND AMONG THE MEMBERS OF THE PARTICIPATING COMPANY GROUP FOR THE EXCLUSIVE PURPOSE OF IMPLEMENTING, ADMINISTERING AND MANAGING THE PARTICIPANTS PARTICIPATION IN THE PLAN.

4
4. THE AWARD.
4.1 Grant of Units. The Company hereby grants to the Participant, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Total Number of Restricted Stock Units set forth in the Grant Notice, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4.3 and Section 10. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Grant Notice, this Agreement and the Plan, each Unit represents a right to receive on a date determined in accordance with the Grant Notice and this Agreement one (1) share of Stock.
4.2 No Monetary Payment Required. The Participant is not required to make any monetary payment (other than applicable tax withholding, if any) as a condition to receiving the Units or shares of Stock issued upon settlement of the Units, the consideration for which shall be past services actually rendered or future services to be rendered to a Participating Company or for its benefit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if required by applicable law, the Participant shall furnish consideration in the form of cash or past services rendered to a Participating Company or for its benefit having a value not less than the par value of the shares of Stock issued upon settlement of the Units.
4.3 Dividend Equivalent Units. On the date that the Company pays a cash dividend to holders of Stock generally, the Participant shall be credited with a number of additional whole Dividend Equivalent Units determined by dividing (a) the product of (i) the dollar amount of the cash dividend paid per share of Stock on such date and (ii) the total number of Restricted Stock Units and Dividend Equivalent Units previously credited to the Participant pursuant to the Award and which have not been settled or forfeited pursuant to Section 6 below as of such date, by (b) the Fair Market Value per share of Stock on such date. Any resulting fractional Dividend Equivalent Unit shall be rounded to the nearest whole number. Such additional Dividend Equivalent Units shall be subject to the same terms and conditions and shall be settled or forfeited in the same manner and at the same time as the Restricted Stock Units originally subject to the Award with respect to which they have been credited.
5. VESTING OF UNITS.
Units acquired pursuant to this Agreement shall become Vested Units as provided in the Grant Notice. Dividend Equivalent Units shall become Vested Units at the same time as the Restricted Stock Units originally subject to the Award with respect to which they have been credited.
6. FORFEITURE OF UNITS.
In the event that the Participants Service with a Participating Company is terminated by the Participating Company for Cause, insofar as permitted under Local Law the Participant shall forfeit and the Company shall automatically reacquire all Units (whether vested or unvested), and the Participant shall not be entitled to any payment therefor.
5
7. SETTLEMENT OF THE AWARD.
7.1 Issuance of Shares of Stock. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.3 below, as soon as reasonably practicable following the date upon which Units satisfy the vesting conditions (such date, the Settlement Date) (but in no event later than March 15th of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Units vest), the Company shall issue to the Participant with respect to each such Vested Unit one (1) share of Stock. Shares of Stock issued in settlement of Units shall not be subject to any restriction on transfer other than any such restriction as may be required pursuant to Section 7.3, Section 7 or the Companys Securities Trading Policy or any stock ownership guidelines or holding period guidelines established by the Board from time to time.
7.2 Beneficial Ownership of Shares; Certificate Registration. The Participant hereby authorizes the Company, in its sole discretion, to deposit any or all shares acquired by the Participant pursuant to the settlement of the Award with the Companys transfer agent, including any successor transfer agent, to be held in book entry form, or to deposit such shares for the benefit of the Participant with any broker with which the Participant has an account relationship of which the Company has notice. Except as provided by the foregoing, a certificate for the shares acquired by the Participant shall be registered in the name of the Participant, or, if applicable, in the names of the heirs of the Participant.
7.3 Restrictions on Grant of the Award and Issuance of Shares. The grant of the Award and issuance of shares of Stock upon settlement of the Award shall be subject to compliance with all applicable requirements of United States federal, state law and Local Law with respect to such securities. No shares of Stock may be issued hereunder if the issuance of such shares would constitute a violation of any applicable United States federal, state, or Local Law, or other law or regulations or the requirements of any stock exchange or market system upon which the Stock may then be listed. The inability of the Company to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority, if any, or the impracticality of doing so, deemed by the Companys legal counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance of any shares subject to the Award shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue such shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained. As a condition to the settlement of the Award, the Company may require the Participant to satisfy any qualifications that may be necessary or appropriate, to evidence compliance with any applicable law or regulation and to make any representation or warranty with respect thereto as may be requested by the Company.
7.4 Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue fractional shares upon the settlement of the Award.
8. TAX WITHHOLDING.
Regardless of any action the Company or the Participants employer (the Employer) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (Tax-Related Items), the Participant acknowledges and agrees that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by the Participant is and remains the Participants responsibility and that the Company and or the Employer (i) make no representations nor undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of this grant of Units, including the grant and vesting of Units, subsequent delivery of shares and/or cash related to such Units or the subsequent sale of any shares acquired pursuant to such Units and receipt of any dividend equivalent payments (if any) and (ii) do not commit to structure the terms or any aspect of this grant of Units to reduce or eliminate the Participants liability for Tax-Related Items.
6
The Participant shall satisfy Tax-Related Items by having the Company or the Employer deduct from shares of Stock otherwise deliverable to the Participant in settlement of the Award a number of whole shares having a Fair Market Value not in excess of the amount of such Tax-Related Items determined by the maximum applicable statutory withholding rates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may instead, upon notice to the Participant, require the Participant to pay the Company or the Employer in cash any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold as a result of the Participants participation in the Plan or the Participants receipt of Units (including, without limitation, by the Employer withholding such amounts from the Participants wages, which the Participant hereby authorizes). If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding a number of shares as described herein, the Participant understands that he or she will be deemed to have been issued the full number of shares subject to the settled Units, notwithstanding that a number of shares are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of the settlement of the Units. Further, if the Participant is subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction, the Participant acknowledges that the Company and/or Employer (or former Employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction. The Company may refuse to deliver the shares if the Participant fails to comply with the Participants obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.
The Participant acknowledges and understands that the Participant should consult a tax adviser regarding the Participants tax obligations prior to such settlement or disposition.
9. EFFECT OF CHANGE IN CONTROL.
In the event of a Change in Control during the Performance Period, subject to the Participants continued Service on the date that such Change in Control is consummated, the Target Award (and any Dividend Equivalent Units associated therewith) will vest and the date that the Change in Control is consummated will be treated as the Settlement Date for purposes of Section 7 hereof. No Restricted Stock Units in excess of the Target Award shall vest pursuant to this Agreement and all Restricted Stock Units in excess of the Target Award shall immediately be forfeited and cancelled, and the Participant shall not be entitled to any compensation or other amount with respect thereto.
10. ADJUSTMENTS FOR CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE.
Subject to any required action by the stockholders of the Company and the requirements of Section 409A, to the extent applicable, in the event of any change in the Stock effected without receipt of consideration by the Company, whether through merger, consolidation, reorganization, reincorporation, recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, split-up, split-off, spin-off, combination of shares, exchange of shares, or similar change in the capital structure of the Company, or in the event of payment of a dividend or distribution to the stockholders of the Company in a form other than Stock (other than regular, periodic cash dividends paid on Stock pursuant to the Companys dividend policy) that has a
7
material effect on the Fair Market Value of shares of Stock, or any other corporate transaction or event having an effect similar to any of the foregoing, appropriate and proportionate adjustments shall be made in the number of Units subject to the Award and/or the number and kind of shares or other property to be issued in settlement of the Award, in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the Participants rights under the Award. For purposes of the foregoing, conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be treated as effected without receipt of consideration by the Company. Any and all new, substituted or additional securities or other property (other than regular, periodic cash dividends paid on Stock pursuant to the Companys dividend policy, which shall be treated in accordance with Section 4.3) to which the Participant is entitled by reason of ownership of Units acquired pursuant to this Award will be immediately subject to the provisions of this Award on the same basis as all Units originally acquired hereunder. Any fractional Unit or share resulting from an adjustment pursuant to this Section shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number. Such adjustments shall be determined by the Committee, and its determination shall be final, binding and conclusive.
11. RIGHTS AS A STOCKHOLDER, DIRECTOR, EMPLOYEE OR CONSULTANT.
The Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares which may be issued in settlement of this Award until the date of the issuance of such shares (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company). No adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date the shares are issued, except as provided in Section 4.3 and Section 10. If the Participant is an Employee, the Participant understands and acknowledges that, except as otherwise provided in a separate, written employment agreement between a Participating Company and the Participant, the Participants employment is at will and is for no specified term unless otherwise required under applicable law. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue in the Service of a Participating Company or interfere in any way with any right of the Participating Company Group to terminate the Participants Service at any time.
12. LEGENDS.
The Company may at any time place legends referencing any applicable United States federal, state or non-U.S. securities law, including Local Law, restrictions on all certificates representing shares of stock issued pursuant to this Agreement. The Participant shall, at the request of the Company, promptly present to the Company any and all certificates representing shares acquired pursuant to this Award in the possession of the Participant in order to carry out the provisions of this Section.
13. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.
13.1 Termination or Amendment. The Committee may terminate or amend the Plan or this Agreement at any time; provided, however, that except as set forth in Section 9 in connection with a Change in Control or Section 10, no such termination or amendment may adversely affect the Participants rights under this Agreement without the consent of the Participant unless such termination or amendment is necessary to comply with applicable law or government regulation. No amendment or addition to this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing.
8
13.2 Nontransferability of the Award. Prior to the issuance of shares of Stock on the applicable Settlement Date, neither this Award nor any Units subject to this Award shall be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, exchange, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, or garnishment by creditors of the Participant or the Participants beneficiary, except transfer by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. All rights with respect to the Award shall be exercisable during the Participants lifetime only by the Participant or the Participants guardian or legal representative.
13.3 Further Instruments. The parties hereto agree to execute such further instruments and to take such further action as may reasonably be necessary to carry out the intent of this Agreement.
13.4 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Company and, subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth herein, be binding upon the Participant and the Participants heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns.
13.5 Delivery of Documents and Notices. Any document relating to participation in the Plan or any notice required or permitted hereunder shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given (except to the extent that this Agreement provides for effectiveness only upon actual receipt of such notice) upon personal delivery, electronic delivery at the e-mail address, if any, provided for the Participant by a Participating Company, or upon deposit in the U.S. Post Office or non-U.S. postal service, by registered or certified mail, or with a nationally recognized overnight courier service, with postage and fees prepaid, addressed to the other party at the address of such party set forth in the Grant Notice or at such other address as such party may designate in writing from time to time to the other party.

Finally, the Participant understands that he or she is not required to consent to electronic delivery of documents described in Section 13.5(a).
13.6 Integrated Agreement. The Grant Notice (including its exhibits), this Agreement and the Plan shall constitute the entire understanding and agreement of the Participant and the Participating Company Group with respect to the subject matter contained herein or therein and supersede any prior agreements, understandings, restrictions, representations, or warranties among the Participant and the Participating Company Group with respect to such subject matter.

NOTIFICATIONS

In addition, the information contained herein is general in nature and may not apply to the Participants particular situation. As a result, the Company is not in a position to assure the Participant of any particular result.

2.2 Employment Conditions. By accepting the Award, the Participant acknowledges and agrees that:
(a) Any notice period mandated under Local Law shall not be treated as Service for the purpose of determining the vesting of the Award; and the Participants right to receive shares in settlement of the Award after termination of Service, if any, will be measured by the date of termination of the Participants active Service and will not be extended by any notice period mandated under Local Law. Subject to the foregoing and the provisions of the Plan, the Company, in its sole discretion, shall determine whether the Participants Service has terminated and the effective date of such termination.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Grant Notice, if the Participant is terminated without Cause or resigns for Good Reason, in each case not in connection with a CIC Qualified Termination (each as defined in the Participants employment agreement with the Company) prior to the settlement of the Award, the Participant will remain eligible to vest (determined in accordance with the terms set forth in the Grant Notice) in a pro rata portion of the Restricted Stock Units on the Certification Date following the end of the Performance Period based on actual Company performance, with such pro rata portion determined by multiplying the total number of Restricted Stock Units remaining outstanding and unvested immediately prior to such termination, by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full months that the Participant provided continuous Service during the Performance Period, and the denominator of which is the number of full months in the full Performance Period. All Restricted Stock Units in excess of the pro rata portion thereof that remains outstanding in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence shall immediately be forfeited and cancelled, and the Participant shall not be entitled to any compensation or other amount with respect thereto. If a Change in Control occurs upon or following such termination and prior to the end of the Performance Period, then the Restricted Stock Units remaining outstanding and unvested immediately prior to the Change in Control (after application of the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.2(b)) shall vest and become nonforfeitable at the target level of achievement (determined in accordance with the Grant Notice) immediately upon the occurrence of the Change in Control and the date that the Change in Control is consummated shall be the Settlement Date for purposes of Section 7 hereof.
(c) If the Participant incurs a CIC Qualified Termination, all outstanding and unvested Units (after application of the provisions of Section 9) will fully vest on the date of such termination, and, in the event that the date of such CIC Qualified Termination occurs prior to the occurrence of any Change in Control, the outstanding and unvested Units will vest at the target level of achievement (determined in accordance with the Grant Notice).
(d) The vesting of the Award shall cease upon, and no Units shall vest following, the Participants termination of Service for any reason other than as set forth in Section 2.2 (b) or (c). Further, all unvested Units will be forfeited and cancelled and the Participant will not be entitled to any compensation or other amount with respect thereto.
(e) The Plan is established voluntarily by the Company. It is discretionary in nature and it may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time, unless otherwise provided in the Plan and this Agreement.
2

(g) All decisions with respect to future Award grants, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company.
(h) The Participants participation in the Plan shall not create a right to further Service with any Participating Company and shall not interfere with the ability of any Participating Company to terminate the Participants Service at any time, with or without Cause, insofar as permitted under Local Law.
(i) The Participant is voluntarily participating in the Plan.
(j) The Award and resulting shares, if any, are an extraordinary item that does not constitute compensation of any kind for Service of any kind rendered to any Participating Company, and which is outside the scope of the Participants employment contract, if any.
(k) The Award is not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purpose, including, but not limited to, calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, end-of-service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement benefits or similar payments.
(l) In the event that the Participant is not an employee of the Company, the Award grant will not be interpreted to form an employment contract or relationship with the Company; and furthermore the Award grant will not be interpreted to form an employment contract with any other Participating Company.
(m) The future value of the underlying shares is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty. If the Participant obtains shares upon settlement of the Award, the value of those shares may increase or decrease.
(n) In consideration of the grant of an Award, no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages arises from termination of the Award or diminution in value of the Award or shares acquired upon settlement of the Award resulting from termination of the Participants Service (for any reason whether or not in breach of Local Law) and the Participant irrevocably releases the Company and each other Participating Company from any such claim that may arise. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen then, by signing this Agreement, the Participant shall be deemed irrevocably to have waived the Participants entitlement to pursue such a claim.

4. THE AWARD.
4.1 Grant of Units. The Company hereby grants to the Participant, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Total Number of Restricted Stock Units set forth in the Grant Notice, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4.3 and Section 10. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Grant Notice, this Agreement and the Plan, each Unit represents a right to receive on a date determined in accordance with the Grant Notice and this Agreement one (1) share of Stock.
4.2 No Monetary Payment Required. The Participant is not required to make any monetary payment (other than applicable tax withholding, if any) as a condition to receiving the Units or shares of Stock issued upon settlement of the Units, the consideration for which shall be past services actually rendered or future services to be rendered to a Participating Company or for its benefit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if required by applicable law, the Participant shall furnish consideration in the form of cash or past services rendered to a Participating Company or for its benefit having a value not less than the par value of the shares of Stock issued upon settlement of the Units.
4.3 Dividend Equivalent Units. On the date that the Company pays a cash dividend to holders of Stock generally, the Participant shall be credited with a number of additional whole Dividend Equivalent Units determined by dividing (a) the product of (i) the dollar amount of the cash dividend paid per share of Stock on such date and (ii) the total number of Restricted Stock Units and Dividend Equivalent Units previously credited to the Participant pursuant to the Award and which have not been settled or forfeited pursuant to Section 6 below as of such date, by (b) the Fair Market Value per share of Stock on such date. Any resulting fractional Dividend Equivalent Unit shall be rounded to the nearest whole number. Such additional Dividend Equivalent Units shall be subject to the same terms and conditions and shall be settled or forfeited in the same manner and at the same time as the Restricted Stock Units originally subject to the Award with respect to which they have been credited.
5. VESTING OF UNITS.
Units acquired pursuant to this Agreement shall become Vested Units as provided in the Grant Notice. Dividend Equivalent Units shall become Vested Units at the same time as the Restricted Stock Units originally subject to the Award with respect to which they have been credited.
6. FORFEITURE OF UNITS.
In the event that the Participants Service with a Participating Company is terminated by the Participating Company for Cause, insofar as permitted under Local Law the Participant shall forfeit and the Company shall automatically reacquire all Units (whether vested or unvested), and the Participant shall not be entitled to any payment therefor.
5
7. SETTLEMENT OF THE AWARD.
7.1 Issuance of Shares of Stock. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.3 below, as soon as reasonably practicable following the date upon which Units satisfy the vesting conditions (such date, the Settlement Date) (but in no event later than March 15th of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Units vest), the Company shall issue to the Participant with respect to each such Vested Unit one (1) share of Stock. Shares of Stock issued in settlement of Units shall not be subject to any restriction on transfer other than any such restriction as may be required pursuant to Section 7.3, Section 7 or the Companys Securities Trading Policy or any stock ownership guidelines or holding period guidelines established by the Board from time to time.
7.2 Beneficial Ownership of Shares; Certificate Registration. The Participant hereby authorizes the Company, in its sole discretion, to deposit any or all shares acquired by the Participant pursuant to the settlement of the Award with the Companys transfer agent, including any successor transfer agent, to be held in book entry form, or to deposit such shares for the benefit of the Participant with any broker with which the Participant has an account relationship of which the Company has notice. Except as provided by the foregoing, a certificate for the shares acquired by the Participant shall be registered in the name of the Participant, or, if applicable, in the names of the heirs of the Participant.
7.3 Restrictions on Grant of the Award and Issuance of Shares. The grant of the Award and issuance of shares of Stock upon settlement of the Award shall be subject to compliance with all applicable requirements of United States federal, state law and Local Law with respect to such securities. No shares of Stock may be issued hereunder if the issuance of such shares would constitute a violation of any applicable United States federal, state, or Local Law, or other law or regulations or the requirements of any stock exchange or market system upon which the Stock may then be listed. The inability of the Company to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority, if any, or the impracticality of doing so, deemed by the Companys legal counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance of any shares subject to the Award shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue such shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained. As a condition to the settlement of the Award, the Company may require the Participant to satisfy any qualifications that may be necessary or appropriate, to evidence compliance with any applicable law or regulation and to make any representation or warranty with respect thereto as may be requested by the Company.
7.4 Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue fractional shares upon the settlement of the Award.
8. TAX WITHHOLDING.
Regardless of any action the Company or the Participants employer (the Employer) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (Tax-Related Items), the Participant acknowledges and agrees that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by the Participant is and remains the Participants responsibility and that the Company and/or the Employer (i) make no representations nor undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of this grant of Units, including the grant and vesting of Units, subsequent delivery of shares and/or cash related to such Units or the subsequent sale of any shares acquired pursuant to such Units and receipt of any dividend equivalent payments (if any) and (ii) do not commit to structure the terms or any aspect of this grant of Units to reduce or eliminate the Participants liability for Tax-Related Items.
6
The Participant shall satisfy Tax-Related Items by having the Company or the Employer deduct from shares of Stock otherwise deliverable to the Participant in settlement of the Award a number of whole shares having a Fair Market Value not in excess of the amount of such Tax-Related Items determined by the maximum applicable statutory withholding rates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may instead, upon notice to the Participant, require the Participant to pay the Company or the Employer in cash any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold as a result of the Participants participation in the Plan or the Participants receipt of Units (including, without limitation, by the Employer withholding such amounts from the Participants wages, which the Participant hereby authorizes). If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding a number of shares as described herein, the Participant understands that he or she will be deemed to have been issued the full number of shares subject to the settled Units, notwithstanding that a number of shares are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of the settlement of the Units. Further, if the Participant is subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction, the Participant acknowledges that the Company and/or Employer (or former Employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction. The Company may refuse to deliver the shares if the Participant fails to comply with the Participants obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.
The Participant acknowledges and understands that the Participant should consult a tax adviser regarding the Participants tax obligations prior to such settlement or disposition.
9. EFFECT OF CHANGE IN CONTROL.
9.1 Change in Control. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control during the Performance Period where a Replacement Award (as defined below) is provided to the Participant at the time of the Change in Control in lieu of the Units, the Units that remain outstanding and unvested as of immediately prior to the Change in Control shall remain outstanding and unvested, but the performance conditions with respect thereto shall be deemed satisfied at the target level of achievement. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control where a Replacement Award is not provided to the Participant in lieu of the Units, the Units shall immediately vest at the target level of achievement. In either case, all Units in excess of the Target Award shall immediately be forfeited and cancelled, unless otherwise determined by the Committee, and Participant shall not be entitled to any compensation or other amount with respect thereto.
7
9.2 Replacement Award. A Replacement Award is an Award that (i) is the same (i.e., the Award continues) or is of the same type as the Award that is replaced or adjusted by a Replacement Award (the Replaced Award) (i.e., restricted stock units); (ii) has a value at least equal to the value of the Replaced Award at the time of the Change in Control; (iii) is subject to the same vesting schedule as the Replaced Award; (iv) relates to equity securities of the Company or its successor upon the Change in Control, or a parent entity of the Company or its successor upon the Change in Control, which securities are subject to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act; (v) if the Participant is subject to U.S. federal income tax under the Code, the tax consequences to the Participant under the Code of the Replacement Award are not less favorable to the Participant than the tax consequences of the Replaced Award; and (vi) its other terms and conditions are not less favorable to the Participant than the terms and conditions of the Replaced Award (including, but not limited to, the provisions that would apply in the event of a subsequent Change in Control). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Replacement Award may take the form of a continuation of the Replaced Award if the requirements of the preceding sentence are satisfied. The determination of whether the requirements for a Replacement Award are satisfied will be made by the Committee, as constituted immediately before the Change in Control, in its good faith discretion (taking into account the requirements of Treasury Regulation 1.409A-3(i)(5)(iv)(B) and compliance of the Replaced Award or Replacement Award with Section 409A).
10. ADJUSTMENTS FOR CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE.
Subject to any required action by the stockholders of the Company and the requirements of Section 409A, to the extent applicable, in the event of any change in the Stock effected without receipt of consideration by the Company, whether through merger, consolidation, reorganization, reincorporation, recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, split-up, split-off, spin-off, combination of shares, exchange of shares, or similar change in the capital structure of the Company, or in the event of payment of a dividend or distribution to the stockholders of the Company in a form other than Stock (other than regular, periodic cash dividends paid on Stock pursuant to the Companys dividend policy) that has a material effect on the Fair Market Value of shares of Stock, or any other corporate transaction or event having an effect similar to any of the foregoing, appropriate and proportionate adjustments shall be made in the number of Units subject to the Award and/or the number and kind of shares or other property to be issued in settlement of the Award, in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the Participants rights under the Award. For purposes of the foregoing, conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be treated as effected without receipt of consideration by the Company. Any and all new, substituted or additional securities or other property (other than regular, periodic cash dividends paid on Stock pursuant to the Companys dividend policy, which shall be treated in accordance with Section 4.3) to which the Participant is entitled by reason of ownership of Units acquired pursuant to this Award will be immediately subject to the provisions of this Award on the same basis as all Units originally acquired hereunder. Any fractional Unit or share resulting from an adjustment pursuant to this Section shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number. Such adjustments shall be determined by the Committee, and its determination shall be final, binding and conclusive.
8
11. RIGHTS AS A STOCKHOLDER, DIRECTOR, EMPLOYEE OR CONSULTANT.
The Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares which may be issued in settlement of this Award until the date of the issuance of such shares (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company). No adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date the shares are issued, except as provided in Section 4.3 and Section 10. If the Participant is an Employee, the Participant understands and acknowledges that, except as otherwise provided in a separate, written employment agreement between a Participating Company and the Participant, the Participants employment is at will and is for no specified term unless otherwise required under applicable law. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue in the Service of a Participating Company or interfere in any way with any right of the Participating Company Group to terminate the Participants Service at any time.
12. LEGENDS.
The Company may at any time place legends referencing any applicable United States federal, state or non-U.S. securities law, including Local Law, restrictions on all certificates representing shares of stock issued pursuant to this Agreement. The Participant shall, at the request of the Company, promptly present to the Company any and all certificates representing shares acquired pursuant to this Award in the possession of the Participant in order to carry out the provisions of this Section.
13. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.
13.1 Termination or Amendment. The Committee may terminate or amend the Plan or this Agreement at any time; provided, however, that except as set forth in Section 10 or in connection with a Change in Control, no such termination or amendment may adversely affect the Participants rights under this Agreement without the consent of the Participant unless such termination or amendment is necessary to comply with applicable law or government regulation. No amendment or addition to this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing.
13.2 Nontransferability of the Award. Prior to the issuance of shares of Stock on the applicable Settlement Date, neither this Award nor any Units subject to this Award shall be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, exchange, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, or garnishment by creditors of the Participant or the Participants beneficiary, except transfer by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. All rights with respect to the Award shall be exercisable during the Participants lifetime only by the Participant or the Participants guardian or legal representative.

1
2.2 Employment Conditions. By accepting the Award, the Participant acknowledges and agrees that:
(a) Any notice period mandated under Local Law shall not be treated as Service for the purpose of determining the vesting of the Award; and the Participants right to receive shares in settlement of the Award after termination of Service, if any, will be measured by the date of termination of the Participants active Service and will not be extended by any notice period mandated under Local Law. Subject to the foregoing and the provisions of the Plan, the Company, in its sole discretion, shall determine whether the Participants Service has terminated and the effective date of such termination.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Grant Notice, if the Participant is terminated without Cause or resigns for Good Reason, in each case not in connection with a CIC Qualified Termination (each as defined in the Participants employment agreement with the Company) prior to the settlement of the Award, the Participant will remain eligible to vest (determined in accordance with the terms set forth in the Grant Notice) in a pro rata portion of the Restricted Stock Units on the Certification Date following the end of the Performance Period based on actual Company performance, with such pro rata portion determined by multiplying the total number of Restricted Stock Units remaining outstanding and unvested immediately prior to such termination by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full months that the Participant provided continuous Service during the Performance Period, and the denominator of which is the number of full months in the full Performance Period. All Restricted Stock Units in excess of the pro rata portion thereof that remains outstanding in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence shall immediately be forfeited and cancelled, and the Participant shall not be entitled to any compensation or other amount with respect thereto. If a Change in Control occurs upon or following such termination and prior to the end of the Performance Period, then the Restricted Stock Units remaining outstanding and unvested immediately prior to the Change in Control (after application of the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.2(b)) shall vest and become nonforfeitable at the target level of achievement (determined in accordance with the Grant Notice) immediately upon the occurrence of the Change in Control and the date that the Change in Control is consummated shall be the Settlement Date for purposes of Section 7 hereof.
(c) If the Participant incurs a CIC Qualified Termination, all outstanding and unvested Units (if any) will fully vest on the date of such termination at the target level of achievement (determined in accordance with the Grant Notice).
(d) The vesting of the Award shall cease upon, and no Units shall vest following, the Participants termination of Service for any reason other than as set forth in Section 2.2 (b) or (c). Further, all unvested Units will be forfeited and cancelled and the Participant will not be entitled to any compensation or other amount with respect thereto.
(e) The Plan is established voluntarily by the Company. It is discretionary in nature and it may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time, unless otherwise provided in the Plan and this Agreement.
2
(f) The grant of the Award is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of Awards, or benefits in lieu of Awards, even if Awards have been granted repeatedly in the past.
(g) All decisions with respect to future Award grants, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company.
(h) The Participants participation in the Plan shall not create a right to further Service with any Participating Company and shall not interfere with the ability of any Participating Company to terminate the Participants Service at any time, with or without Cause, insofar as permitted under Local Law.
(i) The Participant is voluntarily participating in the Plan.
(j) The Award and resulting shares, if any, are an extraordinary item that does not constitute compensation of any kind for Service of any kind rendered to any Participating Company, and which is outside the scope of the Participants employment contract, if any.
(k) The Award is not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purpose, including, but not limited to, calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, end-of-service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement benefits or similar payments.
(l) In the event that the Participant is not an employee of the Company, the Award grant will not be interpreted to form an employment contract or relationship with the Company; and furthermore the Award grant will not be interpreted to form an employment contract with any other Participating Company.
(m) The future value of the underlying shares is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty. If the Participant obtains shares upon settlement of the Award, the value of those shares may increase or decrease.
(n) In consideration of the grant of an Award, no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages arises from termination of the Award or diminution in value of the Award or shares acquired upon settlement of the Award resulting from termination of the Participants Service (for any reason whether or not in breach of Local Law) and the Participant irrevocably releases the Company and each other Participating Company from any such claim that may arise. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen then, by signing this Agreement, the Participant shall be deemed irrevocably to have waived the Participants entitlement to pursue such a claim.
2.3 Data Privacy Consent.
(a) THE PARTICIPANT HEREBY EXPLICITLY AND UNAMBIGUOUSLY CONSENTS TO THE COLLECTION, USE AND TRANSFER, IN ELECTRONIC OR OTHER FORM, OF THE PARTICIPANTS PERSONAL DATA AS DESCRIBED IN THIS DOCUMENT BY AND AMONG THE MEMBERS OF THE PARTICIPATING COMPANY GROUP FOR THE EXCLUSIVE PURPOSE OF IMPLEMENTING, ADMINISTERING AND MANAGING THE PARTICIPANTS PARTICIPATION IN THE PLAN.

4. | THE AWARD. |
4.1 Grant of Units. The Company hereby grants to the Participant, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Total Number of Restricted Stock Units set forth in the Grant Notice, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4.3 and Section 10. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Grant Notice, this Agreement and the Plan, each Unit represents a right to receive on a date determined in accordance with the Grant Notice and this Agreement one (1) share of Stock.
4.2 No Monetary Payment Required. The Participant is not required to make any monetary payment (other than applicable tax withholding, if any) as a condition to receiving the Units or shares of Stock issued upon settlement of the Units, the consideration for which shall be past services actually rendered or future services to be rendered to a Participating Company or for its benefit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if required by applicable law, the Participant shall furnish consideration in the form of cash or past services rendered to a Participating Company or for its benefit having a value not less than the par value of the shares of Stock issued upon settlement of the Units.
4.3 Dividend Equivalent Units. On the date that the Company pays a cash dividend to holders of Stock generally, the Participant shall be credited with a number of additional whole Dividend Equivalent Units determined by dividing (a) the product of (i) the dollar amount of the cash dividend paid per share of Stock on such date and (ii) the total number of Restricted Stock Units and Dividend Equivalent Units previously credited to the Participant pursuant to the Award and which have not been settled or forfeited pursuant to Section 6 below as of such date, by (b) the Fair Market Value per share of Stock on such date. Any resulting fractional Dividend Equivalent Unit shall be rounded to the nearest whole number. Such additional Dividend Equivalent Units shall be subject to the same terms and conditions and shall be settled or forfeited in the same manner and at the same time as the Restricted Stock Units originally subject to the Award with respect to which they have been credited.
5. | VESTING OF UNITS. |
Units acquired pursuant to this Agreement shall become Vested Units as provided in the Grant Notice. Dividend Equivalent Units shall become Vested Units at the same time as the Restricted Stock Units originally subject to the Award with respect to which they have been credited.
6. | FORFEITURE OF UNITS. |
In the event that the Participants Service with a Participating Company is terminated by the Participating Company for Cause, insofar as permitted under Local Law the Participant shall forfeit and the Company shall automatically reacquire all Units (whether vested or unvested), and the Participant shall not be entitled to any payment therefor.
5
7. | SETTLEMENT OF THE AWARD. |
7.1 Issuance of Shares of Stock. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.3 below, as soon as reasonably practicable following the date upon which Units satisfy the vesting conditions (such date, the Settlement Date) (but in no event later than March 15th of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Units vest), the Company shall issue to the Participant with respect to each such Vested Unit one (1) share of Stock. Shares of Stock issued in settlement of Units shall not be subject to any restriction on transfer other than any such restriction as may be required pursuant to Section 7.3, Section 7 or the Companys Securities Trading Policy or any stock ownership guidelines or holding period guidelines established by the Board from time to time.
7.2 Beneficial Ownership of Shares; Certificate Registration. The Participant hereby authorizes the Company, in its sole discretion, to deposit any or all shares acquired by the Participant pursuant to the settlement of the Award with the Companys transfer agent, including any successor transfer agent, to be held in book entry form, or to deposit such shares for the benefit of the Participant with any broker with which the Participant has an account relationship of which the Company has notice. Except as provided by the foregoing, a certificate for the shares acquired by the Participant shall be registered in the name of the Participant, or, if applicable, in the names of the heirs of the Participant.
7.3 Restrictions on Grant of the Award and Issuance of Shares. The grant of the Award and issuance of shares of Stock upon settlement of the Award shall be subject to compliance with all applicable requirements of United States federal, state law and Local Law with respect to such securities. No shares of Stock may be issued hereunder if the issuance of such shares would constitute a violation of any applicable United States federal, state, or Local Law, or other law or regulations or the requirements of any stock exchange or market system upon which the Stock may then be listed. The inability of the Company to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority, if any, or the impracticality of doing so, deemed by the Companys legal counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance of any shares subject to the Award shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue such shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained. As a condition to the settlement of the Award, the Company may require the Participant to satisfy any qualifications that may be necessary or appropriate, to evidence compliance with any applicable law or regulation and to make any representation or warranty with respect thereto as may be requested by the Company.
7.4 Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue fractional shares upon the settlement of the Award.
6
8. | TAX WITHHOLDING. |
Regardless of any action the Company or the Participants employer (the Employer) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (Tax-Related Items), the Participant acknowledges and agrees that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by the Participant is and remains the Participants responsibility and that the Company and or the Employer (i) make no representations nor undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of this grant of Units, including the grant and vesting of Units, subsequent delivery of shares and/or cash related to such Units or the subsequent sale of any shares acquired pursuant to such Units and receipt of any dividend equivalent payments (if any) and (ii) do not commit to structure the terms or any aspect of this grant of Units to reduce or eliminate the Participants liability for Tax-Related Items.
The Participant shall satisfy Tax-Related Items by having the Company or the Employer deduct from shares of Stock otherwise deliverable to the Participant in settlement of the Award a number of whole shares having a Fair Market Value not in excess of the amount of such Tax-Related Items determined by the maximum applicable statutory withholding rates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may instead, upon notice to the Participant, require the Participant to pay the Company or the Employer in cash any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold as a result of the Participants participation in the Plan or the Participants receipt of Units (including, without limitation, by the Employer withholding such amounts from the Participants wages, which the Participant hereby authorizes). If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding a number of shares as described herein, the Participant understands that he or she will be deemed to have been issued the full number of shares subject to the settled Units, notwithstanding that a number of shares are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of the settlement of the Units. Further, if the Participant is subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction, the Participant acknowledges that the Company and/or Employer (or former Employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction. The Company may refuse to deliver the shares if the Participant fails to comply with the Participants obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.
The Participant acknowledges and understands that the Participant should consult a tax adviser regarding the Participants tax obligations prior to such settlement or disposition.
9. | EFFECT OF CHANGE IN CONTROL. |
In the event of a Change in Control during the Performance Period, subject to the Participants continued Service on the date that such Change in Control is consummated, the Target Award (and any Dividend Equivalent Units associated therewith) will vest and the date that the Change in Control is consummated will be treated as the Settlement Date for purposes of Section 7 hereof. No Restricted Stock Units in excess of the Target Award shall vest pursuant to this Agreement and all Restricted Stock Units in excess of the Target Award shall immediately be forfeited and cancelled, and the Participant shall not be entitled to any compensation or other amount with respect thereto.
7
10. | ADJUSTMENTS FOR CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE. |
Subject to any required action by the stockholders of the Company and the requirements of Section 409A, to the extent applicable in the event of any change in the Stock effected without receipt of consideration by the Company, whether through merger, consolidation, reorganization, reincorporation, recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, split-up, split-off, spin-off, combination of shares, exchange of shares, or similar change in the capital structure of the Company, or in the event of payment of a dividend or distribution to the stockholders of the Company in a form other than Stock (other than regular, periodic cash dividends paid on Stock pursuant to the Companys dividend policy) that has a material effect on the Fair Market Value of shares of Stock, or any other corporate transaction or event having an effect similar to any of the foregoing, appropriate and proportionate adjustments shall be made in the number of Units subject to the Award and/or the number and kind of shares or other property to be issued in settlement of the Award, in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the Participants rights under the Award. For purposes of the foregoing, conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be treated as effected without receipt of consideration by the Company. Any and all new, substituted or additional securities or other property (other than regular, periodic cash dividends paid on Stock pursuant to the Companys dividend policy, which shall be treated in accordance with Section 4.3) to which the Participant is entitled by reason of ownership of Units acquired pursuant to this Award will be immediately subject to the provisions of this Award on the same basis as all Units originally acquired hereunder. Any fractional Unit or share resulting from an adjustment pursuant to this Section shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number. Such adjustments shall be determined by the Committee, and its determination shall be final, binding and conclusive.
11. | RIGHTS AS A STOCKHOLDER, DIRECTOR, EMPLOYEE OR CONSULTANT. |
The Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares which may be issued in settlement of this Award until the date of the issuance of such shares (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company). No adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date the shares are issued, except as provided in Section 4.3 and Section 10. If the Participant is an Employee, the Participant understands and acknowledges that, except as otherwise provided in a separate, written employment agreement between a Participating Company and the Participant, the Participants employment is at will and is for no specified term unless otherwise required under applicable law. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue in the Service of a Participating Company or interfere in any way with any right of the Participating Company Group to terminate the Participants Service at any time.
12. | LEGENDS. |
The Company may at any time place legends referencing any applicable United States federal, state or non-U.S. securities law, including Local Law, restrictions on all certificates representing shares of stock issued pursuant to this Agreement. The Participant shall, at the request of the Company, promptly present to the Company any and all certificates representing shares acquired pursuant to this Award in the possession of the Participant in order to carry out the provisions of this Section.
8
13. | MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS. |
13.1 Termination or Amendment. The Committee may terminate or amend the Plan or this Agreement at any time; provided, however, that except as set forth in Section 9 in connection with a Change in Control or Section 10, no such termination or amendment may adversely affect the Participants rights under this Agreement without the consent of the Participant unless such termination or amendment is necessary to comply with applicable law or government regulation.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS
This Appendix, which is part of the Agreement, includes additional terms and conditions of the Agreement that will apply to the Participant if the Participant is resident in the countries listed below. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the same meanings assigned to them in the Plan and the Agreement.
NOTIFICATIONS
This Appendix also includes information regarding exchange control and certain other issues of which the Participant should be aware with respect to the Participants participation in the Plan.

In addition, the information contained herein is general in nature and may not apply to the Participants particular situation.

(b) Units mean the Restricted Stock Units originally granted pursuant to the Award and the Dividend Equivalent Units credited pursuant to the Award, as both shall be adjusted from time to time pursuant to Section 10.
1.2 Construction. Captions and titles contained herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of any provision of this Agreement. Except when otherwise indicated by the context, the singular shall include the plural and the plural shall include the singular. Use of the term or is not intended to be exclusive, unless the context clearly requires otherwise.
2. CERTAIN CONDITIONS OF THE AWARD.
2.1 Compliance with Local Law. The Participant agrees that the Participant will not acquire shares pursuant to the Award, or transfer, assign, sell or otherwise deal in such shares except in compliance with Local Law.
1
2.2 Employment Conditions. By accepting the Award, the Participant acknowledges and agrees that:
(a) Any notice period mandated under Local Law shall not be treated as Service for the purpose of determining the vesting of the Award; and the Participants right to receive shares in settlement of the Award after termination of Service, if any, will be measured by the date of termination of the Participants active Service and will not be extended by any notice period mandated under Local Law. Subject to the foregoing and the provisions of the Plan, the Company, in its sole discretion, shall determine whether the Participants Service has terminated and the effective date of such termination.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Grant Notice, if the Participant is terminated without Cause or resigns for Good Reason, in each case not in connection with a CIC Qualified Termination (each as defined in the Participants employment agreement with the Company) prior to the settlement of the Award, the Participant will remain eligible to vest (determined in accordance with the terms set forth in the Grant Notice) in a pro rata portion of the Restricted Stock Units on the Certification Date following the end of the Performance Period based on actual Company performance, with such pro rata portion determined by multiplying the total number of Restricted Stock Units remaining outstanding and unvested immediately prior to such termination by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full months that the Participant provided continuous Service during the Performance Period, and the denominator of which is the number of full months in the full Performance Period. All Restricted Stock Units in excess of the pro rata portion thereof that remains outstanding in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence shall immediately be forfeited and cancelled, and the Participant shall not be entitled to any compensation or other amount with respect thereto. If a Change in Control occurs upon or following such termination and prior to the end of the Performance Period, then the portion of the Restricted Stock Units remaining outstanding and unvested immediately prior to the Change in Control (after application of the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.2(b)) that are eligible to vest and become nonforfeitable (CIC Post-Termination Units) will be determined as of the date of the Change in Control in accordance with Exhibit A to the Grant Notice and the date of the Change in Control will serve as the last day of the Performance Period for purposes of such determination. The CIC Post-Termination Units, if any, will vest immediately upon the occurrence of the Change in Control and the date that the Change in Control is consummated shall be the Settlement Date for purposes of Section 7 hereof.
(c) If the Participant incurs a CIC Qualified Termination, all outstanding and unvested Units (after application of the provisions of Section 9) will fully vest on the date of such termination, and, in the event that the date of such CIC Qualified Termination occurs prior to the occurrence of any Change in Control, the number of vested Units will be determined by the level of actual performance through the date of such CIC Qualified Termination.
(d) The vesting of the Award shall cease upon, and no Units shall vest following, the Participants termination of Service for any reason other than as set forth in Section 2.2 (b) or (c). Further, all unvested Units will be forfeited and cancelled and the Participant will not be entitled to any compensation or other amount with respect thereto.
2
(e) The Plan is established voluntarily by the Company. It is discretionary in nature and it may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time, unless otherwise provided in the Plan and this Agreement.
(f) The grant of the Award is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of Awards, or benefits in lieu of Awards, even if Awards have been granted repeatedly in the past.
(g) All decisions with respect to future Award grants, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company.
(h) The Participants participation in the Plan shall not create a right to further Service with any Participating Company and shall not interfere with the ability of any Participating Company to terminate the Participants Service at any time, with or without Cause, insofar as permitted under Local Law.
(i) The Participant is voluntarily participating in the Plan.
(j) The Award and resulting shares, if any, are an extraordinary item that does not constitute compensation of any kind for Service of any kind rendered to any Participating Company, and which is outside the scope of the Participants employment contract, if any.
(k) The Award is not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purpose, including, but not limited to, calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, end-of-service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement benefits or similar payments.
(l) In the event that the Participant is not an employee of the Company, the Award grant will not be interpreted to form an employment contract or relationship with the Company; and furthermore the Award grant will not be interpreted to form an employment contract with any other Participating Company.
(m) The future value of the underlying shares is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty. If the Participant obtains shares upon settlement of the Award, the value of those shares may increase or decrease.
(n) In consideration of the grant of an Award, no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages arises from termination of the Award or diminution in value of the Award or shares acquired upon settlement of the Award resulting from termination of the Participants Service (for any reason whether or not in breach of Local Law) and the Participant irrevocably releases the Company and each other Participating Company from any such claim that may arise. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen then, by signing this Agreement, the Participant shall be deemed irrevocably to have waived the Participants entitlement to pursue such a claim.

All such determinations by the Committee shall be final, binding and conclusive upon all persons having an interest in the Award, unless fraudulent or made in bad faith. Any and all actions, decisions and determinations taken or made by the Committee in the exercise of its discretion pursuant to the Plan or the Award or other agreement thereunder (other than determining questions of interpretation pursuant to the preceding sentence) shall be final, binding and conclusive upon all persons having an interest in the Award.

4. THE AWARD.
4.1 Grant of Units. The Company hereby grants to the Participant, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Total Number of Restricted Stock Units set forth in the Grant Notice, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4.3 and Section 10. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Grant Notice, this Agreement and the Plan, each Unit represents a right to receive on a date determined in accordance with the Grant Notice and this Agreement one (1) share of Stock.
4.2 No Monetary Payment Required. The Participant is not required to make any monetary payment (other than applicable tax withholding, if any) as a condition to receiving the Units or shares of Stock issued upon settlement of the Units, the consideration for which shall be past services actually rendered or future services to be rendered to a Participating Company or for its benefit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if required by applicable law, the Participant shall furnish consideration in the form of cash or past services rendered to a Participating Company or for its benefit having a value not less than the par value of the shares of Stock issued upon settlement of the Units.
4.3 Dividend Equivalent Units. On the date that the Company pays a cash dividend to holders of Stock generally, the Participant shall be credited with a number of additional whole Dividend Equivalent Units determined by dividing (a) the product of (i) the dollar amount of the cash dividend paid per share of Stock on such date and (ii) the total number of Restricted Stock Units and Dividend Equivalent Units previously credited to the Participant pursuant to the Award and which have not been settled or forfeited pursuant to Section 6 below as of such date, by (b) the Fair Market Value per share of Stock on such date. Any resulting fractional Dividend Equivalent Unit shall be rounded to the nearest whole number. Such additional Dividend Equivalent Units shall be subject to the same terms and conditions and shall be settled or forfeited in the same manner and at the same time as the Restricted Stock Units originally subject to the Award with respect to which they have been credited.
5. VESTING OF UNITS.
Units acquired pursuant to this Agreement shall become Vested Units as provided in the Grant Notice. Dividend Equivalent Units shall become Vested Units at the same time as the Restricted Stock Units originally subject to the Award with respect to which they have been credited.
5
6. FORFEITURE OF UNITS.
In the event that the Participants Service with a Participating Company is terminated by the Participating Company for Cause, insofar as permitted under Local Law the Participant shall forfeit and the Company shall automatically reacquire all Units (whether vested or unvested), and the Participant shall not be entitled to any payment therefor.
7. SETTLEMENT OF THE AWARD.
7.1 Issuance of Shares of Stock. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.3 below, as soon as reasonably practicable following the date upon which Units vest (such date, the Settlement Date) (but in no event later than March 15th of the calendar year following the calendar year in which such vesting occurs), the Company shall issue to the Participant with respect to each such Vested Unit one (1) share of Stock. Shares of Stock issued in settlement of Units shall not be subject to any restriction on transfer other than any such restriction as may be required pursuant to Section 7.3, Section 7 or the Companys Securities Trading Policy or any stock ownership guidelines or holding period guidelines established by the Board from time to time.
7.2 Beneficial Ownership of Shares; Certificate Registration. The Participant hereby authorizes the Company, in its sole discretion, to deposit any or all shares acquired by the Participant pursuant to the settlement of the Award with the Companys transfer agent, including any successor transfer agent, to be held in book entry form, or to deposit such shares for the benefit of the Participant with any broker with which the Participant has an account relationship of which the Company has notice. Except as provided by the foregoing, a certificate for the shares acquired by the Participant shall be registered in the name of the Participant, or, if applicable, in the names of the heirs of the Participant.
7.3 Restrictions on Grant of the Award and Issuance of Shares. The grant of the Award and issuance of shares of Stock upon settlement of the Award shall be subject to compliance with all applicable requirements of United States federal, state law and Local Law with respect to such securities. No shares of Stock may be issued hereunder if the issuance of such shares would constitute a violation of any applicable United States federal, state, or Local Law, or other law or regulations or the requirements of any stock exchange or market system upon which the Stock may then be listed. The inability of the Company to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority, if any, or the impracticality of doing so, deemed by the Companys legal counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance of any shares subject to the Award shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue such shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained. As a condition to the settlement of the Award, the Company may require the Participant to satisfy any qualifications that may be necessary or appropriate, to evidence compliance with any applicable law or regulation and to make any representation or warranty with respect thereto as may be requested by the Company.
7.4 Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue fractional shares upon the settlement of the Award.
6
8. TAX WITHHOLDING.
Regardless of any action the Company or the Participants employer (the Employer) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (Tax-Related Items), the Participant acknowledges and agrees that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by the Participant is and remains the Participants responsibility and that the Company and/or the Employer (i) make no representations nor undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of this grant of Units, including the grant and vesting of Units, subsequent delivery of shares and/or cash related to such Units or the subsequent sale of any shares acquired pursuant to such Units and receipt of any dividend equivalent payments (if any) and (ii) do not commit to structure the terms or any aspect of this grant of Units to reduce or eliminate the Participants liability for Tax-Related Items.
The Participant shall satisfy Tax-Related Items by having the Company or the Employer deduct from shares of Stock otherwise deliverable to the Participant in settlement of the Award a number of whole shares having a Fair Market Value not in excess of the amount of such Tax-Related Items determined by the maximum applicable statutory withholding rates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may instead, upon notice to the Participant, require the Participant to pay the Company or the Employer in cash any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold as a result of the Participants participation in the Plan or the Participants receipt of Units (including, without limitation, by the Employer withholding such amounts from the Participants wages, which the Participant hereby authorizes). If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding a number of shares as described herein, the Participant understands that he or she will be deemed to have been issued the full number of shares subject to the settled Units, notwithstanding that a number of shares are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of the settlement of the Units. Further, if the Participant is subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction, the Participant acknowledges that the Company and/or Employer (or former Employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction. The Company may refuse to deliver the shares if the Participant fails to comply with the Participants obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.
The Participant acknowledges and understands that the Participant should consult a tax adviser regarding the Participants tax obligations prior to such settlement or disposition.
9. EFFECT OF CHANGE IN CONTROL.
9.1 Change in Control. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control during the Performance Period where a Replacement Award (as defined below) is provided to the Participant at the time of the Change in Control in lieu of the Units, the number of Units that remain outstanding and unvested following the Change in Control and eligible to vest solely based on the passage of time will be determined as of the date of the Change in Control in accordance with Exhibit A to the Grant Notice (the CIC Eligible Units) and the date of the Change in Control will serve as the last day of the Performance Period for purposes of such determination. Subject to the Participants continuous employment, the CIC Eligible Units will vest on the last day of the Performance Period. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control where a Replacement Award is not provided to the Participant in lieu of the Units, the CIC Eligible Units will vest. In either case, all Units in excess of the CIC Eligible Units shall immediately be forfeited and cancelled, and Participant shall not be entitled to any compensation or other amount with respect thereto.
7
9.2 Replacement Award. A Replacement Award is an Award that (i) is the same (i.e., the Award continues, other than with respect to performance conditions as set forth in Section 9.1) or is of the same type as the Award that is replaced or adjusted by a Replacement Award (the Replaced Award) (i.e., restricted stock units); (ii) has a value at least equal to the value of the Replaced Award at the time of the Change in Control; (iii) is subject to the same vesting schedule as the Replaced Award; (iv) relates to equity securities of the Company or its successor upon the Change in Control, or a parent entity of the Company or its successor upon the Change in Control, which securities are subject to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act; (v) if the Participant is subject to U.S. federal income tax under the Code, the tax consequences to the Participant under the Code of the Replacement Award are not less favorable to the Participant than the tax consequences of the Replaced Award; and (vi) its other terms and conditions are not less favorable to the Participant than the terms and conditions of the Replaced Award (including, but not limited to, the provisions that would apply in the event of a subsequent Change in Control). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Replacement Award may take the form of a continuation of the Replaced Award if the requirements of the preceding sentence are satisfied. The determination of whether the requirements for a Replacement Award are satisfied will be made by the Committee, as constituted immediately before the Change in Control, in its good faith discretion (taking into account the requirements of Treasury Regulation 1.409A-3(i)(5)(iv)(B) and compliance of the Replaced Award or Replacement Award with Section 409A).
10. ADJUSTMENTS FOR CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE.
Subject to any required action by the stockholders of the Company and the requirements of Section 409A, to the extent applicable, in the event of any change in the Stock effected without receipt of consideration by the Company, whether through merger, consolidation, reorganization, reincorporation, recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, split-up, split-off, spin-off, combination of shares, exchange of shares, or similar change in the capital structure of the Company, or in the event of payment of a dividend or distribution to the stockholders of the Company in a form other than Stock (other than regular, periodic cash dividends paid on Stock pursuant to the Companys dividend policy) that has a material effect on the Fair Market Value of shares of Stock, or any other corporate transaction or event having an effect similar to any of the foregoing, appropriate and proportionate adjustments shall be made in the number of Units subject to the Award and/or the number and kind of shares or other property to be issued in settlement of the Award, in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the Participants rights under the Award. For purposes of the foregoing, conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be treated as effected without receipt of consideration by the Company. Any and all new, substituted or additional securities or other property (other than regular, periodic cash dividends paid on Stock pursuant to the Companys dividend policy, which shall be treated in accordance with Section 4.3) to which the Participant is entitled by reason of ownership of Units acquired pursuant to this Award will be immediately subject to the provisions of this Award on the same basis as all Units originally acquired hereunder. Any fractional Unit or share resulting from an adjustment pursuant to this Section shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number. Such adjustments shall be determined by the Committee, and its determination shall be final, binding and conclusive.
8
11. RIGHTS AS A STOCKHOLDER, DIRECTOR, EMPLOYEE OR CONSULTANT.
The Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares which may be issued in settlement of this Award until the date of the issuance of such shares (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company). No adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date the shares are issued, except as provided in Section 4.3 and Section 10. If the Participant is an Employee, the Participant understands and acknowledges that, except as otherwise provided in a separate, written employment agreement between a Participating Company and the Participant, the Participants employment is at will and is for no specified term unless otherwise required under applicable law. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue in the Service of a Participating Company or interfere in any way with any right of the Participating Company Group to terminate the Participants Service at any time.
12. LEGENDS.
The Company may at any time place legends referencing any applicable United States federal, state or non-U.S. securities law, including Local Law, restrictions on all certificates representing shares of stock issued pursuant to this Agreement. The Participant shall, at the request of the Company, promptly present to the Company any and all certificates representing shares acquired pursuant to this Award in the possession of the Participant in order to carry out the provisions of this Section.
13. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.
13.1 Termination or Amendment. The Committee may terminate or amend the Plan or this Agreement at any time; provided, however, that except as set forth in Section 10 or in connection with a Change in Control, no such termination or amendment may adversely affect the Participants rights under this Agreement without the consent of the Participant unless such termination or amendment is necessary to comply with applicable law or government regulation. No amendment or addition to this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing.
13.2 Nontransferability of the Award. Prior to the issuance of shares of Stock on the applicable Settlement Date, neither this Award nor any Units subject to this Award shall be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, exchange, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, or garnishment by creditors of the Participant or the Participants beneficiary, except transfer by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. All rights with respect to the Award shall be exercisable during the Participants lifetime only by the Participant or the Participants guardian or legal representative.
13.3 Further Instruments. The parties hereto agree to execute such further instruments and to take such further action as may reasonably be necessary to carry out the intent of this Agreement.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS
This Appendix, which is part of the Agreement, includes additional terms and conditions of the Agreement that will apply to the Participant if the Participant is resident in the countries listed below. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the same meanings assigned to them in the Plan and the Agreement.
NOTIFICATIONS

As a result, the Company is not in a position to assure the Participant of any particular result.
