Exhibit 10.37
BUNGE 2016 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN
GLOBAL RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT
###PARTICIPANT_NAME### ###GRANT_NAME###
1.General. Unless otherwise defined herein, the terms defined in the Bunge 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) shall have the same defined meanings in this Global Restricted Stock Unit Agreement and any terms and conditions applicable to the country included in the Country-Specific Appendix (if any) attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Appendix”) (collectively, this “Agreement”). The Plan, which is incorporated by reference, and this Agreement constitute the entire understanding and agreement between you and Bunge Global SA (the “Company”) regarding the Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) specified in your account.
2.Grant of RSUs. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement, effective as of the date specified in your account (the “Date of Grant”), the Company grants you the number of RSUs specified in your account. Each RSU is equivalent to one Share for purposes of determining the number of Shares subject to the RSU.
3.Vesting of RSUs. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement, the RSUs and related accrued Dividend Equivalents shall vest in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth in your account (the “Vesting Date”), provided that you remain continuously employed by the Company or a Subsidiary on the applicable Vesting Date.
4.Form and Timing of Payment. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement, each vested RSU, plus related Dividend Equivalents, will be paid as soon as practical after the Vesting Date, but in no event later than sixty (60) days following the Vesting Date; provided, however, that you will not be permitted, directly or indirectly, to designate the taxable year of the distribution.
5.Dividend Equivalents. If the Board declares a cash dividend on the Shares, you will be entitled to a Dividend Equivalent, to be credited to your account on the dividend payment date established by the Company, equal to the cash dividends payable on the same number of Shares as the number of unvested RSUs credited to your account on the dividend record date established by the Company. Any Dividend Equivalent will be in the form of additional whole RSUs, will be subject to the same terms and Vesting Dates as the corresponding RSUs, and will be paid at the same time and in the same manner as the corresponding RSUs. The number of additional RSUs credited to your account on the dividend payment date (rounded down to the nearest whole RSU) will be determined by (x) multiplying the number of unvested RSUs as of the dividend record date (including any unvested RSUs previously credited to your account as a result of Dividend Equivalents) by (y) the quotient of the cash dividend to be paid per Share, divided by the Fair Market Value per Share on the dividend payment date. Dividend Equivalents will vest at the same time as their corresponding RSUs and convert into the right to receive Shares only to the extent the underlying RSUs vest and become payable.

6.Effect of Termination of Employment.
6.1Termination of Employment for Cause; Resignation for any Reason; Breach of Restrictive Covenant. If your employment with the Company or a Subsidiary is terminated for Cause, you resign your employment with the Company or a Subsidiary for any reason, or you breach any of the provisions set forth in Section 8 of this Agreement, any unvested RSUs (and related Dividend Equivalents), or vested RSUs (and related Dividend Equivalents) that have not yet been settled, will immediately be cancelled and forfeited without payment.
1



6.2Termination of Employment without Cause or on Account of Retirement. If your employment with the Company or a Subsidiary is terminated without Cause or on account of Retirement (for purposes of this Agreement, defined as your termination of employment after attaining (i) age 65 or (ii) age 55 with ten (10) years of completed service with the Company or a Subsidiary), any unvested RSUs (and related Dividend Equivalents) will vest on a pro rata basis and will be payable as soon as practical following your termination of employment, provided that in no event will payment be made later than sixty (60) days following such termination. The pro rata calculation will be determined by multiplying (x) the number of Shares subject to the RSU on the Date of Grant which are scheduled to vest on the Vesting Date that next follows your termination of employment, by (y) a fraction, with a numerator equal to the number of days from the Date of Grant (or, if applicable, the immediately preceding Vesting Date, if your termination occurs after a Vesting Date) through the date of your termination of employment, and a denominator equal to the number of days from the Date of Grant (or, if applicable, the immediately preceding Vesting Date, if your termination occurs after a Vesting Date) through the Vesting Date that next follows your termination of employment.
6.3Termination of Employment on Account of Disability or Death. If your employment with the Company or a Subsidiary is terminated on account of death or Disability any unvested RSUs (and related Dividend Equivalents) will vest in full and will be payable as soon as practical following your termination of employment, provided that in no event will payment be made later than sixty (60) days following such termination.
6.4Termination of Employment without Cause following a Change of Control. Unless specifically prohibited by the Plan or unless the Committee provides otherwise prior to a Change of Control, upon the occurrence of a Change of Control and a termination of your employment with the Company or a Subsidiary without Cause on or before the second anniversary of the occurrence of a Change of Control, any unvested RSUs (and related Dividend Equivalents) will vest in full and will be payable as soon as practical following your termination of employment, provided that in no event will payment be made later than sixty (60) days following such termination.
6.5Specified Employees. For United States (“U.S.”) taxpayers, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if you are a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i), as determined under the Company’s established methodology for determining specified employees, at the time of your separation from service, any payment hereunder that provides for a “deferral of compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A shall not be paid or commence to be paid on any date prior to the first business day after the date that is six months following your separation from service; provided, however, that a payment delayed pursuant to this Section 6.5 shall commence earlier in the event of your death prior to the end of the six-month period.
7.Tax Withholding.
7.1You acknowledge and agree the Company may refuse to issue or deliver Shares or the proceeds of the sale of Shares to you until satisfactory arrangements (as determined by the Company) have been made for the payment of income, employment, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefit tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to your participation in the Plan and legally applicable or deemed applicable to you (“Tax-Related Items”), including, without limitation, in connection with the grant, vesting and settlement of the RSUs, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired upon settlement of the RSUs and the receipt of any Dividend Equivalents that the Company determines must be withheld. If you are a non-U.S. employee, the method of payment of Tax-Related Items may be restricted by the Appendix.
7.2The Company has the right (but not the obligation) to satisfy any Tax-Related Items by (i) withholding from proceeds of the sale of Shares acquired upon the settlement of the RSUs through a sale arranged by the Company (on your behalf pursuant to this authorization without further consent), (ii) requiring you to pay cash, (iii)
2



withholding from any wages or other cash compensation payable to you by the Company or your employer (the “Employer”), and/or (iv) reducing the number of Shares otherwise deliverable to you. The Company will have discretion to determine the method of satisfying Tax-Related Items. In this regard, you authorize the Company and/or the Employer, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy any applicable withholding obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the aforementioned withholding methods. The Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding rates or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum applicable rates in your jurisdiction(s), in which case you may receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash with no entitlement to the equivalent in Shares or if not refunded, you may seek a refund from the local tax authorities. In the event of under-withholding, you may be required to pay any additional Tax-Related Items directly to the applicable tax authority or to the Company and/or the Employer. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in Shares, for tax purposes, you are deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject to the vested RSUs, notwithstanding that a number of the Shares are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax -Related Items.
7.3If you are subject to taxation in more than one jurisdiction, you acknowledge that the Company and/or, if different, your current or former Employer may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.
7.4Regardless of any action of the Company or the Employer, you acknowledge that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items is and remains your responsibility and may exceed the amount, if any, actually withheld by the Company or the Employer. You further acknowledge that the Company and the Employer (x) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the RSUs; and (y) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the RSUs to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result.
8.Restricted Covenants.

Without limiting the remedies available to the Company, you acknowledge that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 8 may result in irreparable injury to the Company for which there is no adequate remedy at law, that it shall not be possible to measure damages for such injuries precisely and that, in the event of such a breach or threat thereof, the Company may, in addition to pursuing any other remedies it may have in law or in equity, (i) cancel the unvested portion of the RSU as of the date of such breach or threat thereof; (ii) require you to pay to the Company, in cash, the gross amount already realized from the vesting of the RSU during the 12 month period prior to such breach or threat thereof to the extent permitted by law, regulation or listing requirement, or by any Company policy; (ii) cease making any payments with respect to the RSU that are otherwise required under this Agreement; and (iv) if the breach or threat thereof occurred after the RSU has been deferred to the Company Employee Deferred Compensation Plan and prior to the deferred payment date, forfeit the deferred portion of the RSU and this Award shall be deemed terminated as of the date on which the breach or threat thereof occurred.

(l) For purposes of the RSUs (including any Dividend Equivalents), your employer-employee or service relationship will be considered terminated as of the date that is the earliest of: (i) the date of termination of employment, (ii) the date you receive notice of termination from the Employer, or (iii) the date you are no longer providing services (regardless of the reason for such termination and whether or not the termination is later found to be invalid or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction where you are employed or the terms of your employment agreement, if any).

Securities Law Information. You are permitted to sell Shares acquired under the Plan through the designated broker appointed under the Plan, if any, provided the sale of the Shares acquired under Plan takes place outside of Canada through the facilities of a stock exchange on which the Shares are listed (i.e., the New York Stock Exchange).
Foreign Asset/Account Reporting Information. If you are a Canadian resident, you must report annually on Form T1135 (Foreign Income Verification Statement) the specified foreign property (including RSUs, Shares acquired under the Plan and other rights to receive Shares) you hold if the total cost of such specified foreign property exceeds C$100,000 at any time during the year. Unvested RSUs (including any Dividend Equivalents) also must be reported (generally at nil cost) on Form T1135 if the C$100,000 threshold is exceeded due to other specified foreign property you hold. If Shares are acquired, their cost generally is the adjusted cost base (“ACB”) of the Shares. The ACB would normally equal the fair market value of the Shares at vesting, but if you own other shares, this ACB may have to be averaged with the ACB of the other shares. The Form T1135 must be filed at the same time you file your annual tax return. You should consult your personal legal advisor to ensure compliance with applicable reporting obligations.
CHILE

Notifications
Securities Law Information. The offer of RSUs constitutes a private offering in Chile effective as of the Date of Grant. The offer of RSUs is made subject to ruling N° 336 of the Chilean Commission for the Financial Market (“CMF”). This offer refers to securities not registered at the securities registry or at the foreign securities registry of the CMF, and therefore such securities are not subject to its oversight. Given that these securities are not registered in Chile, there is no obligation from the issuer to provide public information on them in Chile. These securities cannot be subject to public offering in Chile while they are not registered at the corresponding securities registry in Chile.
Exchange Control Information. You may receive foreign currency abroad as a result of the acquisition of Shares and freely decide whether to repatriate such currency to Chile or keep it abroad. However, if you repatriate currency, and such amounts exceed USD 10,000, the proceeds must be remitted using the formal exchange market. It is not necessary to convert the repatriated funds into Chilean currency.
Foreign Asset / Account Reporting Information. The Chilean Internal Revenue Service (“CIRS”) requires all taxpayers to provide information annually regarding (i) the results of investments held abroad and (ii) any taxes paid abroad which the taxpayers will use as credit against Chilean income tax. The sworn statements disclosing this information (or Formularios) must be reported on Form 1929 and submitted electronically through the CIRS website (www.sii.cl) before July 1 of each year, depending on the assets and/or taxes being reported.
Exchange control and tax reporting requirements in Chile are subject to change. You are responsible for ensuring your compliance with any applicable reporting obligations and should speak to your personal legal advisor on this matter.

Terms and Conditions
Payment after Vesting. The following provision supplements Section 4 of the Agreement:
Due to regulatory requirements in India, the Company reserves the right to require that you sell all Shares delivered to you, either immediately upon receipt of such Shares or upon termination of employment. In this regard, you agree that the Company is authorized to instruct its designated broker to assist with any such mandatory sale of Shares (on your behalf pursuant to this authorization), and you expressly authorize the designated broker to complete the sale of such Shares.

You acknowledge that the designated broker is under no obligation to arrange for the sale of the Shares at any particular price. Due to fluctuations in the Share price and/or applicable exchange rates between the date the Shares are delivered to you and (if later) the date on which the Shares are sold, the amount of proceeds ultimately distributed to you may be more or less than the market value of the Shares on the relevant vesting date or the date on which the shares are delivered to you. Upon the sale of the Shares, the cash proceeds from the sale of shares (less any applicable Tax-Related Items, brokerage fees or commissions) will be delivered to you in accordance with applicable laws and regulations, as determined by the Company in its sole discretion.

Because exchange control restrictions in India change frequently, you are encouraged to consult with your personal advisor before taking any action under the Plan.
Foreign Asset/Account Reporting Information. You are required to declare any foreign bank accounts and any foreign financial assets (including Shares held outside India) in your annual tax return.

Labor Law Acknowledgement. The following provision supplements Section 9 of this Agreement:
By accepting the RSUs granted hereunder, you consent to participation in the Plan and acknowledge that you have received a copy of the Plan.
You understand that the Company has unilaterally, gratuitously and in its sole discretion decided to grant RSUs under the Plan to individuals who may be members of the Board or Employees throughout the world. The decision is a limited decision, which is entered into upon the express assumption and condition that any RSUs granted will not economically or otherwise bind the Company or any of its Subsidiaries on an ongoing basis, other than as expressly set forth in this Agreement. Consequently, you understand that the RSUs granted hereunder are given on the assumption and condition that they shall not become a part of any employment contract (either with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) and shall not be considered a mandatory benefit, salary for any purposes (including severance compensation) or any other right whatsoever. Further, you understand and freely accept that there is no guarantee that any benefit whatsoever shall arise from any gratuitous and discretionary grant of RSUs since the future value of the RSUs and the underlying Shares is unknown and unpredictable. In addition, you understand that any RSUs granted hereunder would not be made but for the assumptions and conditions referred to above; thus, you understand, acknowledge and freely accept that, should any or all of the assumptions be mistaken or should any of the conditions not be met for any reason, then any grant of RSUs or right to RSUs shall be null and void.
Further, the vesting of the RSUs is expressly conditioned on your continued and active rendering of service, such that if your employment terminates for any reason whatsoever, the RSUs may cease vesting immediately, in whole or in part, effective on the date of your termination of employment (unless otherwise specifically provided in Section 6 of the Agreement). This will be the case, for example, even if (i) you are considered to be unfairly dismissed without good cause (i.e., subject to a “despido improcedente”); (ii) you are dismissed for disciplinary or objective reasons or due to a collective dismissal; (iii) you terminate service due to a change of work location, duties or any other employment or contractual condition; (iv) you terminate service due to a unilateral breach of contract by the Company or a Subsidiary; or (v) your employment terminates for any other reason whatsoever. Consequently, upon termination of your employment for any of the above reasons, you may automatically lose any rights to RSUs that were not vested on the date of your termination of employment, as described in the Plan and this Agreement.
Finally, you acknowledge that you have read and specifically accept the conditions referred to in Section 6 of this Agreement.
Notifications
Securities Law Information. No “offer of securities to the public,” as defined under Spanish law, has taken place or will take place in the Spanish territory regarding the RSUs.

In such case, if the amount of any income tax due is not collected from or paid by you within ninety
(90) days of the end of the U.K. tax year in which an event giving rise to the indemnification described above occurs, the amount of any uncollected income tax may constitute an additional benefit to you on which additional income tax and National Insurance Contributions (“NICs”) may be payable. You will be responsible for reporting and paying any income tax due on this additional benefit directly to HMRC under the self-assessment regime and for reimbursing the Company and/or the Employer for the value of any employee NICs due on this additional benefit, which the Company and/or the Employer may recover at any time thereafter by any of the means referred to in Section 7 of this Agreement.

Foreign Asset/Account Reporting Information. The Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (“FATCA”), pertains to U.S. citizens and/or U.S. taxpayers who participate in or hold equity-based awards (e.g., stock options, RSUs, performance units) in one or more equity compensation plans offered by the Company. Under FATCA, the Company is considered a “non-U.S. issuer” with the result that you may have reporting obligations on Form 8938 when filing your annual income tax return. Information regarding Form 8938 is available at http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/i8938.pdf.
These reporting obligations apply to the extent the aggregate value of your holdings (when aggregated with other specified foreign financial assets held by you) exceed certain thresholds. The threshold amounts of the value of the equity holdings (and other foreign assets) that trigger the reporting obligations depend on your filing status (e.g., unmarried/married filing separately) and whether you reside in the U.S. or outside of the U.S. Shares issued by a non-U.S. issuer that are held in a financial account maintained by a U.S. financial institution (such as a brokerage firm) are not subject to these reporting requirements. However, it is not clear under current guidance whether rights to acquire Shares, such as RSUs (i.e., as opposed to Shares you own), are eligible for this exception. You are encouraged to consult your personal tax advisor to determine whether these FATCA reporting requirements apply to you as a result of your equity holdings in the Company, including the RSUs or Shares you acquire under the Plan.
