Section 4. Change in Control.
(a) Conditional Vesting. Upon a Change in Control prior to the [final] Time-Based Vesting Date, except to the extent that another award meeting the requirements of Section 4(b) (a Replacement Award) is provided to the Participant to replace this Award (the Replaced Award), any unvested Time-Based RSUs shall vest in full and be delivered to the Participant on the effective date of such Change in Control. If a Replacement Award is provided, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any outstanding Time-Based RSUs covered by this Agreement, which at the time of the Change in Control are not subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code), will be deemed to be vested at the time of such Change in Control and shall be delivered to the Participant on the effective date of such Change in Control.
(b) Replacement Awards. An award shall meet the conditions of this Section 4(b) (and thereby qualify as a Replacement Award) if the following conditions are met:
(i) The award has a value at least equal to the value of the Replaced Award;
(ii) The award relates to publicly-traded equity securities of the Company or its successor following the Change in Control or another entity that is affiliated with the Company or its successor following the Change in Control; and
(iii) The other terms and conditions of the award are not less favorable to the Participant than the terms and conditions of the Replaced Award (including the provisions that would apply in the event of a subsequent Change in Control and the provisions of Section 4(c)).
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a Replacement Award may take the form of a continuation of a Replaced Award if the requirements of the preceding sentence are satisfied. The determination of whether the conditions of this Section 4(b) are satisfied shall be made by the Committee, as constituted immediately before the Change in Control, in its sole discretion.
(c) Qualifying Termination following a Change in Control. If the Participant experiences a Qualifying Termination (for purposes of which the Company will include a successor of the Company following the Change in Control or another entity that is affiliated with the Company or its successor following the Change in Control), in connection with or during a period of two (2) years after the Change in Control, any Replacement Award that replaces this Award, to the extent not vested as of such Termination of Service, shall vest in full. Any such vested Replacement Award (including any portion previously vested but not yet delivered) shall be delivered to the Participant within thirty (30) days following the date of such Qualifying Termination, provided that if the Qualifying Termination does not occur within two (2) years of a Change in Control that qualifies as a permissible date of distribution under Section
409A(a)(2)(A) of the Code, and the regulations thereunder, and where Section 409A of the Code applies to such distribution, the vested Replacement Award (and any previously vested but undelivered portion) will be delivered to the Participant at the times specified in Section 5(a) of this Agreement as though the Participant had continued employment through [each] [the] Time-Based Vesting Date.
Section 5. Settlement of Time-Based RSUs.
(a) Delivery of Shares. Subject to Sections 3 and 4 of the Agreement, any vested Time-Based RSUs shall be settled in the form of Shares delivered to the Participant as soon as practicable following the Time-Based Vesting Date but in no event later than 30 days following the Time-Based Vesting Date.
(b) Alternative Form of Settlement. Pursuant to Section 7(f) of the Plan and notwithstanding any provision in the Agreement to the contrary, the Company may, in its sole discretion, settle any Time-Based RSUs in the form of (i) a cash payment to the extent settlement in Shares (1) is prohibited under local law, (2) would require the Participant, the Company or the Employer to obtain the approval of any governmental and/or regulatory body in the Participants country of residence (or country of employment, if different), (3) would result in adverse tax consequences for the Participant, the Company or the Employer, or (4) is administratively burdensome; or (ii) Shares, but require the Participant to sell such Shares immediately or within a specified period following the Participants Termination of Service (in which case, the Participant hereby expressly authorizes the Company to issue sales instructions in relation to such Shares on the Participants behalf).
Section 6. Dividend Equivalents. If a dividend is paid on Shares underlying Time-Based RSUs with respect to the period commencing on the Grant Date and ending on the date on which the Shares in settlement of the Time-Based RSUs are delivered to the Participant, the Participant shall be eligible to receive an amount equal to the amount of the dividend that the Participant would have received had the Shares attributable to Time-Based RSUs been held by the Participant during the period with respect to which the dividend was paid, which amount shall be calculated and reinvested in additional Time-Based RSUs as of the time at which such dividend is paid. No such amount shall be payable with respect to any portion of this Award that is forfeited pursuant to Section 3 of the Agreement. Such amount shall be paid to the Participant in the form of additional Shares on the date on which the Shares attributable to the related original Time-Based RSUs are delivered to the Participant; provided that the Committee retains the discretion to pay such amount in cash rather than Time-Based RSUs in the event that an insufficient number of Shares are authorized and available for issuance under the Plan. Any Shares attributable to Time-Based RSUs that the Participant is eligible to receive pursuant to this Section 6 are referred to herein as Dividend Shares.
Section 7. Withholding of Tax-Related Items.
(a) Responsibility for Taxes. The Participant acknowledges that, regardless of any action taken by the Company or the Employer, the ultimate liability for the all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account other tax-related items related to the Participants participation in the Plan (Tax-Related Items), is and remains the Participants responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the
Employer. The Participant further acknowledges that the Company and the Employer (i) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of this Award, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting or settlement of this Award, the subsequent sale of Shares attributable to Time-Based RSUs (including Dividend Shares) acquired pursuant to such and the receipt of any dividends or dividend equivalents, and (ii) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of this Award to reduce or eliminate the Participants responsibility for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if the Participant is subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction between the Grant Date and the date of any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, the Participant acknowledges that the Company and the Employer may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.
(b) Tax Withholding. Prior to any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, the Participant agrees to make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and the Employer to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, the Participant authorizes the Company, the Employer or an agent of the Company or the Employer to satisfy the obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following:
(i) The Company may withhold a portion of the Shares otherwise issuable in settlement of this Award (or, in the case of Awards settled in cash, a portion of the cash proceeds) that have an aggregate fair market value sufficient to pay the Tax-Related Items required to be withheld (as determined by the Company in good faith and in its sole discretion) with respect to this Award. For purposes of the foregoing, no fractional Shares will be withheld or issued pursuant to the vesting of this Award and the issuance of Shares or cash thereunder.
(ii) The Company or the Employer may withhold a portion of the sales proceeds from the sale of Shares acquired pursuant to this Award either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company or the Employer (on the Participants behalf pursuant to this authorization without further consent).
(iii) The Company or the Employer may withhold any amount necessary to pay the Tax-Related Items from the Participants salary or other amounts payable to the Participant.
(iv) The Company or Employer may require the Participant to submit a cash payment equivalent to the Tax-Related Items required to be withheld with respect to this Award.
(v) The Company or the Employer may satisfy the Tax-Related Items by such other methods or combinations of methods as the Company or the Employer may make available from time to time.
Depending on the withholding method, the Company or the Employer may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable withholding rates (as determined by the Company in good faith and its sole discretion), including maximum applicable tax rates. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding from the Shares to be delivered upon
settlement of this Award, for tax purposes, the Participant is deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares notwithstanding that a number of Shares are held back for the purpose of paying Tax-Related Items. In the event the withholding requirements are not satisfied, no Shares or cash will be issued to the Participant (or the Participants estate) in settlement of this Award unless and until satisfactory arrangements (as determined by the Company in its sole discretion) have been made by the Participant with respect to the payment of any such Tax-Related Items. By accepting the grant of this Award, the Participant expressly consents to the methods of withholding of Tax-Related Items as provided hereunder. All other Tax-Related Items related to this Award and any Shares or cash delivered in settlement thereof are the Participants sole responsibility.
(c) Tax Withholding for Section 16 Officers. If the Participant is a Section 16 officer of the Company under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Company will withhold Shares upon the settlement of Time-Based RSUs to cover any withholding obligations for Tax-Related Items unless the use of such withholding method is prohibited or problematic under applicable laws or otherwise may trigger adverse consequences to the Company or the Employer (in each case, as determined by the Committee), in which case the obligation to withhold Tax-Related Items shall be satisfied by the Participant submitting a payment to the Company equal to the amount of the Tax-Related Items required to be withheld.
Section 8. Additional Terms and Conditions.
(a) Issuance of Shares. Upon delivery of Shares in settlement of the Time-Based RSUs (including, if applicable, any Dividend Shares), such Shares shall be evidenced by book-entry registration; provided, however, that the Committee may determine that such Shares shall be evidenced in such other manner as it deems appropriate, including the issuance of a share certificate or certificates. Any such fractional Shares shall be rounded up to the nearest whole Share.
(b) Voting Rights. The Participant shall not have voting rights with respect to the Shares underlying the Time-Based RSUs (including, if applicable, any Dividend Shares) unless and until such Shares are delivered to the Participant.
Section 9. Data Privacy. Pursuant to applicable personal data protection laws, the Company hereby notifies the Participant of the following in relation to the Participants personally identifiable data (Personal Data) and the collection, processing and transfer of such data in relation to the Companys grant of this Award and participation in the Plan. The collection, processing and transfer of Personal Data is necessary for the Companys administration of the Plan and the Participants participation in the Plan, and although the Participant has the right to deny or object to the collection, processing and transfer of Personal Data, the Participants denial and/or objection to the collection, processing and transfer of Personal Data may affect the Participants participation in the Plan.

The Company and the Employer hold certain Personal Data about the Participant, including (but not limited to) the Participants name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social security number (resident registration number or tax identification number) or other employee
