WHEREAS, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Compensation Committee”) of the Company has determined that the Employee be granted Stock Units pursuant to the terms of the Plan and the terms of this Agreement;

    

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth:

the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the dividend payment date. Credits shall be made effective as of the date of the dividend or other distribution in respect of the Stock. Dividend equivalents credited to the Employee’s account shall be subject to the same restrictions as the Stock Units in respect of which the dividends or other distribution were credited, including, without limitation, the Award’s vesting conditions and distribution provisions.

           

Date                    Vested Percentage

February 28, 2019            50% of the Awarded Stock Units

February 28, 2020            100% of the Awarded Stock Units

provided however, that:

If (i) or (ii) above occurs after a Change in Control and before the Stock Units become 100% vested, the restrictions applicable to any then unvested Stock Units covered by this Award will lapse and the Stock Units will be free of all restrictions and become fully vested as of the date the Employee’s employment terminates; and

For purposes of this Agreement, any Termination of Employment shall be effective as of the earlier of (1) the date that the Employee tenders notice of resignation of employment, or (2) the date that the Employee ceases to actively provide services. In connection with the foregoing, the applicable termination date shall not be extended by any notice period mandated under local law (e.g., “garden leave” or similar period pursuant to local law), and the Company shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when the Employee is no longer actively providing service for purposes of the Stock Units.

The Company and the Employer hold certain personal information about the Employee, including name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social security number or other employee identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any shares of Stock or directorships held in the Company, details of all Stock Units, or any other entitlement to shares of Stock awarded, canceled, purchased, vested, unvested or outstanding in the Employee’s favor, for the purpose of managing and administering the Plan (“Data”). The Data may be provided by the Employee or collected, where lawful, from third parties, and the Company and the Employer each will process the Data for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Employee’s participation in the Plan. The Data processing will take place through electronic and non-electronic means according to logics and procedures strictly correlated to the purposes for which the Data is collected and with confidentiality and security provisions as set forth by applicable laws and regulations in the Employee’s country of residence (and country of employment, if different). Data processing operations will be performed minimizing the use of personal and identification data when such operations are unnecessary for the processing purposes sought. Data will be accessible within the Company’s organization only by those persons requiring access for purposes of the implementation, administration and operation of the Plan and for the Employee’s participation in the Plan.

The Company and the Employer each will transfer Data internally as necessary

for the purpose of implementation, administration and management of the Employee’s participation in the Plan, and the Company and the Employer each may further transfer Data to any third parties assisting the Company in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. These recipients may be located in the European Economic Area, or elsewhere throughout the world, such as the United States. The Employee hereby authorizes (where required under applicable law) them to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for purposes of implementing, administering and managing the Employee’s participation in the Plan, including any requisite transfer of such Data as may be required for the administration of the Plan and/or the subsequent holding of shares of Stock on the Employee’s behalf by a broker or other third party with whom the Employee may elect to deposit any shares of Stock acquired pursuant to the Plan.

The Employee may, at any time, exercise his or her rights provided under applicable personal data protection laws, which may include the right to (a) obtain confirmation as to the existence of the Data, (b) verify the content, origin and accuracy of the Data, (c) request the integration, update, amendment, deletion, or blockage (for breach of applicable laws) of the Data, and (d) to oppose, for legal reasons, the collection, processing or transfer of the Data which is not necessary or required for the implementation, administration and/or operation of the Plan and the Employee’s participation in the Plan. The Employee may seek to exercise these rights by contacting the Employer's local HR manager or the Company’s Human Resources Department.

to the Stock Units and the receipt of any dividends or dividend equivalents; and (ii) do not commit to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Stock Units to reduce or eliminate the Employee’s liability for Tax-Related Items.

Prior to the delivery of the Stock upon the vesting of the Stock Units, if any taxing jurisdiction requires withholding of Tax-Related Items, the Company may withhold a sufficient number of whole shares of Stock otherwise issuable upon the vesting of the Stock Units that have an aggregate Fair Market Value (as defined under the Plan) sufficient to pay the minimum Tax-Related Items required to be withheld with respect to the shares. The cash equivalent of the shares withheld will be used to settle the obligation to withhold the Tax-Related Items (determined by reference to the closing price of the Stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the applicable vesting date). No fractional shares of Stock will be withheld or issued pursuant to the grant of the Stock Units and the issuance of Stock hereunder. Alternatively, the Company and/or the Employer may, in its discretion, withhold any amount necessary to pay the Tax-Related Items from the Employee’s salary/wages or other amounts payable to the Employee, with no withholding in shares of Stock.

In the event the withholding requirements are not satisfied through the withholding of shares of Stock or through the withholding from the Employee’s salary/wages or other amounts payable to the Employee, no shares of Stock will be issued upon vesting of the Stock Units unless and until satisfactory arrangements (as determined by the Committee) have been made by the Employee with respect to the payment of any Tax-Related Items which the Company and/or the Employer determine, in its sole discretion, must be withheld or collected with respect to such Stock Units. If the Employee is subject to taxation in more than one jurisdiction, the Employee acknowledges that the Company, the Employer or another subsidiary or Affiliate may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction. By accepting this grant of Stock Units, the Employee expressly consents to the withholding of shares of Stock and/or the withholding of amounts from the Employee's salary/wages or other amounts payable to the Employee as provided for hereunder. All other Tax-Related Items related to the Stock Units and any Stock delivered in payment thereof are the Employee’s sole responsibility.

documents, notices and legal proceedings entered into, given or instituted pursuant to the Stock Units, be drawn up in English. If the Employee has received this Agreement, the Plan or any other documents related to the Stock Units translated into a language other than English, and if the meaning of the translated version is different than the English version, the English version shall control.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, BORGWARNER INC. and the Employee have executed this Agreement to be effective as of the date first written above.
