such termination to the extent not otherwise vested if such termination of Employment; provided, however, that if such termination of Employment occurs prior to the first anniversary of the Grant Date, the number of Time-Vested RSUs that vest will be prorated for the number of completed months of Employment, divided by 36.

(ii)    Change in Control. In the event that in connection with a Change in Control the acquirer does not agree to assume in writing, on substantially the same terms, the Time-Vested RSUs and the obligations hereunder, the Time-Vested RSUs will vest as of immediately prior to such Change in Control to the extent not otherwise vested, subject to the Participant’s continuing Employment through such vesting event.

(b)    Performance-Vested RSUs. The “Performance-Vested RSUs” will vest from 0% to 150% based on (i) satisfaction of the performance targets during each applicable three-year performance period, as set forth in Exhibit A, and (ii) the Participant’s continuing Employment throughout such applicable performance period.

(ii)    Change in Control. In the event that, in connection with a Change in Control, the acquirer does not assume the Performance-Vested RSUs and the obligations hereunder on substantially the same or equitably adjusted terms, the Performance-Vested RSUs will vest as of immediately prior to such Change in Control, subject to the Participant’s continuing Employment through such vesting event, at the performance levels set forth in Exhibit A.

No purported sale, assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation or other disposal of the RSUs, or the rights represented thereby, whether voluntary or involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise will vest in the assignee or transferee any interest or right herein whatsoever, but immediately upon such purported sale, assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation or other disposal, the RSUs will be forfeited by the Participant and all of the Participant’s rights to such RSUs shall immediately terminate without any payment or consideration from the Company.

8.Restrictive Covenants. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, by accepting the RSUs, the Participant acknowledges that the Participant is bound by the following restrictive covenants (the “Restrictive Covenants”):

(a)Except to the extent (1) expressly authorized in writing by the Company or (2) required by law or any legal process, the Participant shall not at any time during the Participant’s Employment with the Company or following the date the Participant’s Employment terminates use, disseminate, disclose or divulge to any person or to any firm, corporation, association or other business entity, Confidential Information (as defined in Section 20) or proprietary Trade Secrets (as defined in Section 20) of the Company or any of its Affiliates;

(b)The Participant shall not at any time during the Participant’s Employment with the Company or following the date the Participant’s Employment terminates make any derogatory, disparaging or negative statements, orally, written or otherwise, against the Company or any of its Affiliates or any of their respective directors, officers and employees;

(c)During the Non-Compete Period (as defined in Section 20), the Participant shall not (i) become employed in any capacity by, or become an officer, employee, director, agent, consultant, shareholder or partner of, or perform any services for, or otherwise hold an interest (other than the ownership of less than 5% of the stock or other equity interests of a publicly traded firm or corporation) in, any Competitor (as defined in Section 20) of the Company or (ii)

directly or indirectly, on his or her own behalf or on behalf of any other person or entity, including any Competitor of the Company or any of its Affiliates, engage in any business transaction or relationship or perform any services in any material way competitive with the Company with or for a client or prospective client of the Company; and

(d)During the Non-Solicit Period (as defined in Section 20), the Participant shall not directly or indirectly, on his or her own behalf or on behalf of any other person or entity, (i) solicit or hire, attempt to solicit or hire, or assist any other person in soliciting or hiring any employee, agent or contractor of the Company or any of its Affiliates or induce any employee, agent or contractor of the Company or any of its Affiliates to terminate his or her Employment or cease doing business with the Company or any of its Affiliates for any reason whatsoever, or (ii) interfere with any business relationship between the Company or any of its Affiliates and any client or prospective client of the Company or any of its Affiliates or induce any client or prospective client to discontinue any business relationship with the Company or any of its Affiliates or to refrain from entering into a business relationship or transaction with the Company or any of its Affiliates.

(e)If at any time the Committee reasonably believes that the Participant has breached any of the Restrictive Covenants, the Committee may suspend the vesting or settlement of Participant’s RSUs pending a good faith determination by the Committee of whether any such Restrictive Covenant has been breached, it being understood that such suspension shall not cause the settlement to be delayed beyond the last date that settlement may occur pursuant to Section 4(c) hereof. If the Committee determines in good faith that the Participant has breached any such Restrictive Covenants, the Participant shall immediately forfeit any outstanding unvested or vested but unsettled RSUs and shall deliver to the Company (or take all steps necessary to effectuate the delivery of), no later than five (5) days following such determination, any Ordinary Shares issued upon the settlement of the Participant’s RSUs and any proceeds resulting from the sale or other disposition (including to the Company) of Ordinary Shares issued upon settlement of the Participant’s RSUs. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Company’s remedies at law for a breach or threatened breach may be inadequate and the Company may suffer significant harm and irreparable damages as a result of a breach or threatened breach. In recognition of this fact, the Participant agrees that, in the event of such a breach or threatened breach, in addition to any remedies at law, the Company may seek to obtain equitable relief with respect to the Participant’s RSUs in the form of specific performance, temporary restraining order, temporary or permanent injunction or any other equitable remedy that may then be available. The remedies under this Agreement are without prejudice to the Company’s right to seek any other remedy to which it may be entitled at law or in equity.

(f)The Restrictive Covenants shall apply to the Participant to the maximum extent permitted in the applicable jurisdiction. Should a court of competent jurisdiction determine that the scope of any provision of this Section 8 is too broad to be enforced as written, the Participant hereby authorizes the court or other legal body to reform the provision to such narrower scope as it determines to be reasonable and enforceable and the parties intend that the affected provision be enforced as so amended.

9.Taxes.

(a)Liability for Tax-Related Items. Except to the extent prohibited by law, the Participant acknowledges that the Participant is ultimately liable and responsible for any and all income taxes (including federal, state, local and other income taxes), social insurance, payroll taxes and other tax-related withholding (the “Tax-Related Items”) arising in connection with the RSUs, regardless of any action the Company takes with respect to such Tax-Related Items. The Participant further acknowledges that the Company (i) does not make any representation or undertaking regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Item in connection with any aspect of the RSUs, including the grant and vesting of the RSUs, or the subsequent sale of Ordinary Shares and (ii) does not commit, and is under no obligation, to structure the terms of the RSUs or any aspect of the RSUs to reduce or eliminate the Participant’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result.

(b)Payment of Withholding Taxes. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, no Ordinary Shares shall be issued unless and until satisfactory arrangements (as determined by the Committee) have been made by the Participant with respect to the payment of any taxes which the Committee determines must be withheld with respect to such Ordinary Shares.

10.Modification; Entire Agreement; Waiver. No change, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement which reduces the Participant’s rights hereunder will be valid unless the same is agreed to in writing by the parties hereto. This Agreement, together with the Plan, represent the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the RSUs. The failure of the Company or Committee to enforce at any time any provision of this Agreement will in no way be construed to be a waiver of such provision or of any other provision hereof.

By accepting the RSUs, the Participant acknowledges that the Participant is bound by and shall comply with all the terms and conditions of the Company’s insider trading policy as may be in effect from time to time and that this award is subject to forfeiture under any clawback policy of the Company as may be in effect from time to time.
