2012 AMENDED AND RESTATED STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN
NOTICE OF PERFORMANCE-BASED RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD
You have been granted the following Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units (“PSUs”) which are equal to an equivalent number of Shares of Common Stock of CafePress Inc. (the “Company”) under the Company’s 2012 Amended and Restated Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”):
Name of Recipient: | [Name of Recipient] |
Grant Date: | [Date of Grant] |
Total Number of PSUs Granted: | [Total PSUs] |
Fair Market Value per PSU: | $[Value per PSU] |
Total Fair Market Value of Award: | $[Total Value] |
Vesting Schedule: | The number of PSUs that ultimately vest will depend on the Company’s performance over the PSU performance period, which is January 1, 2017 through December 31, 2019 (the “Performance Period”) based on two performance criteria – Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow (both as defined in the Company’s 10-Q and 10-K SEC filings) – weighted at (a) 50% for Adjusted EBITDA, measured annually (for pro rata vesting) and cumulatively over the Performance Period (with the final result being the sum of the three individual years) and (b) 50% for Free Cash Flow, measured annually (for pro rata vesting) and cumulatively over the Performance Period (with the final result being the sum of the three individual years). The Committee shall certify the achievement of the performance criteria both annually and cumulatively, at the end of the Performance Period. The actual number of PSUs that vest will be determined at the first meeting of the Committee following the completion of the Performance Period and the filing, on Form 10-K, of the Company’s 2019 Annual Report, at which time the Committee will certify whether the performance criteria have been satisfied and will review and approve the Company’s calculation of the Company’s performance on the two measures’ specified performance criteria. The total number of PSUs that vest will vary between 0-100% of the target award amount depending on where in the specified performance range for each measure the Company’s performance during the Performance Period on the two measures falls. There will be a minimum level (0% of target) below which you will receive 0% of the target award, and correspondingly a maximum performance level (100%) which, even if exceeded, will generate no more than 100% of the target award. For achievement of performance between the minimum and maximum performance levels, the number of PSUs that vest will be linearly interpolated within the range. The Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow targets for the Performance Period are set forth in Appendix A. |

Notwithstanding the preceding, in the event your employment is terminated due to death or Total and Permanent Disability (as defined in the Plan) during the Performance Period, you will be entitled to exercise a pro rata percentage of the PSUs following the end of the Performance Period based on (a) the period of time elapsed between the commencement of the Performance Period and your date of termination of employment due to death or Total or Permanent Disability and (b) the actual performance during the Performance Period. Further, if your employment is terminated by the Company without Cause or if you are Constructively Terminated during the Performance Period, you will be entitled to exercise a pro rata percentage of the PSUs following the end of the Performance Period based on (a) the period of time elapsed between the commencement of the Performance Period and your date of termination of employment due to involuntary termination by the Company without Cause or if you are Constructively Terminated and (b) the actual performance during the Performance Period, provided, you comply with each of the Restrictive Covenants. Further notwithstanding the above, in the event of a Change in Control during the Performance Period, the PSUs shall be converted into Restricted Stock Units based on Company performance as of the date of the Change in Control and as calculated using actual results for completed quarters. Upon conversion into Restricted Stock Units, the PSUs shall cease to exist and shall thereafter be null and void. The Restricted Stock Units will thereafter vest in equal installments, on a quarterly basis, over the remaining Performance Period (unless terminated earlier); provided, in the event you terminate employment with the Company due to death or Total and Permanent Disability (as defined in the Plan), you will become vested in the percentage of Restricted Stock Units that are otherwise scheduled to vest on the last day of the fiscal year that falls within the fiscal year in which your termination of employment due to death or Total and Permanent Disability occurs. To the extent vested, the Restricted Stock Units will settle within sixty (60) days after the vest date. |

Notwithstanding any language to the contrary, if (a) the unvested Restricted Stock Units are not assumed or otherwise replaced by an acquirer in a Change in Control, then 100% of the remaining unvested Restricted Stock Units will accelerate immediately prior to the closing of the Change in Control, and (b) the individual is terminated without Cause or Constructively Terminated on or within twelve (12) months following a Change in Control of the Company, then 100% of the remaining unvested Restricted Stock Units will accelerate immediately upon such termination (provided, however that (a) and (b) shall be mutually exclusive and the individual shall be only entitled to the benefit of either (a) or (b), whichever is greater). All terms shall be as defined in the individual’s Change in Control Agreement in the Company’s standard form. “Cause” means (i) conviction of any felony, or any misdemeanor where imprisonment is imposed; (ii) the commission of any act of fraud, embezzlement or dishonesty with respect to the Company; (iii) any unauthorized use or disclosure of confidential information or trade secrets of the Company; (iv) willful misconduct or gross negligence in performance of the Recipient’s duties, including the Recipient’s refusal to comply in any material respect with the legal directives of the Company’s Board of Directors so long as such directives are not inconsistent with the Recipient’s position and duties, and such refusal to comply is not remedied within thirty (30) days after written notice from the Board of Directors, which notice shall state that failure to remedy such conduct may result in termination for Cause; or (v) repeated unexcused absence from the Company. |
