THIS RESTRICTED SHARE UNIT ISSUANCE AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”), dated as of [                    ] (the “Award Date”), is made by and between Genpact Limited, an exempted limited company organized under the laws of Bermuda (the “Company”) and [                    ] (“Participant”). To the extent not defined herein, all capitalized terms in this Agreement shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Genpact Limited 2007 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Plan”).

R E C I T A L S:

WHEREAS, the Company has adopted the Plan for the purpose of promoting the interests of the Company and its shareholders by attracting and retaining exceptional directors, officers, employees and consultants and enabling such individuals to participate in the long-term growth and financial success of the Company.

WHEREAS, the Committee has determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to grant to Participant restricted share units under the Plan as provided for herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the premises and covenants of the parties contained in this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, for themselves, their successors and assigns, hereby agree as follows:

1.      Grant of Restricted Share Units.    The Company hereby awards to Participant, as of the Award Date, an award (the “Award”) of restricted share units under the Plan. Each restricted share unit represents the right to receive one Common Share on the vesting date of that unit. The number of Common Shares subject to the awarded restricted share units, the applicable vesting schedule for the restricted share units and the underlying shares, the dates on which those vested shares shall be issued to Participant and the remaining terms and conditions governing the Award shall be as set forth in this Agreement.

Number of Shares

 

Subject to Award:    [            ] Common Shares (the “Shares”)
Vesting Schedule:    Participant shall vest with respect to [                    ] provided that Participant remains in employment or service with the Company or an Affiliate through the [            ] anniversary of the Award Date. The Shares may vest on an accelerated basis prior to these vesting dates in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 3 of this Agreement.
Issuance Dates:    Each Share in which Participant vests in accordance with the foregoing Vesting Schedule shall be issued on the date (the “Issuance Date”) on which that Share so vests or as soon thereafter as administratively

 

1


   practicable, but in no event later than the close of the calendar year in which such Issuance Date occurs or (if later) the fifteenth (15th) day of the third calendar month following such Issuance Date. The issuance of the Shares shall be subject to the Company’s collection of any Applicable Taxes in accordance the procedures set forth in Paragraph 4 of this Agreement.

2.      Limited Transferability.    Prior to actual receipt of the Shares which vest and become issuable hereunder, Participant may not transfer any interest in the Award or the underlying Shares. Any Shares which vest hereunder but which otherwise remain unissued at the time of Participant’s death may be transferred pursuant to the provisions of Participant’s will or the laws of inheritance or to Participant’s designated beneficiary or beneficiaries of this Award. Participant may make such a beneficiary designation at any time by filing the appropriate form with the Committee or its designee.

3.      Cessation of Employment.

(a)       Except as otherwise provided in this Paragraph 3 or in Participant’s employment agreement, should Participant cease employment or service for any reason prior to vesting in one or more Shares subject to this Award, then the Award shall be immediately canceled with respect to those unvested Shares, and the number of restricted share units will be reduced accordingly. Participant shall thereupon cease to have any right or entitlement to receive any Shares under those canceled units.

(b)       Should Participant’s employment or service be terminated by the Company other than for Cause prior to vesting in one or more Shares subject to this Award then Participant shall vest in all the Shares at the time subject to this Award, and those vested Shares shall be issued to Participant, subject to the Company’s collection of the Applicable Taxes, on such date or as soon thereafter as administratively practicable, but in no event later than the close of the calendar year in which such termination occurs or (if later) the fifteenth (15th) day of the third calendar month following such termination date. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean “Cause” as defined in any employment or consulting agreement between Participant and the Company or an Affiliate in effect at the time of such termination or, in the absence of such an employment or consulting agreement: (A) any conviction by a court of, or entry of a pleading of guilty or nolo contendere by Participant with respect to, a felony or any lesser crime involving moral turpitude or a material element of which is fraud or dishonesty; (B) Participant’s willful dishonesty of a substantial nature towards the Company and any of its Affiliates; (C) Participant’s use of alcohol or drugs which materially interferes with the performance of his duties to the Company and/or its Affiliates or which materially compromises the integrity and reputation of Participant or the Company and/or its Affiliates; or (E) Participant’s material, knowing and intentional failure to comply with material applicable laws with respect to the execution of the Company’s and its Affiliates’ business operations.

4.      Issuance of Common Shares.

(a)       On the Issuance Date or as soon thereafter as practicable, the Company shall issue to or on behalf of Participant a certificate (which may be in electronic form) for the

number of Common Shares underlying the restricted share units which vest under the Award on such date, subject, however, to the Company’s collection of any Applicable Taxes.

(b)       Any Applicable Taxes required to be withheld with respect to the issuance of the vested Shares shall be paid through an automatic Share withholding procedure pursuant to which the Company will withhold, at the time of such issuance, a portion of the Shares with a Fair Market Value (measured as of the issuance date) equal to the amount of those taxes; provided, however, that the amount of any Shares so withheld shall not exceed the amount necessary to satisfy the Company’s required withholding obligations using the minimum statutory withholding rates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may, in its sole discretion, require that such Applicable Taxes be paid through Participant’s delivery of his or her separate check payable to the Company in the amount of such taxes.

(c)       In no event will any fractional shares be issued.

(d)       The holder of this Award shall not have any shareholder rights, including voting or dividend rights, with respect to the Shares subject to the Award until Participant becomes the record holder of those Shares following their actual issuance after the satisfaction of the Applicable Taxes.

5.      Compliance with Laws and Regulations.    The issuance of Shares pursuant to the Award shall be subject to compliance by the Company and Participant with all applicable laws, rules and regulations and to such approvals by any regulatory or governmental agency as may be required. The Committee, in its sole discretion, may postpone the issuance or delivery of Shares as the Committee may consider appropriate and may require Participant to make such representations and furnish such information as it may consider appropriate in connection with the issuance or delivery of Shares in order to be in compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations.

6.      Successors and Assigns.    Except to the extent otherwise provided in this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the Company and its successors and assigns and Participant and Participant’s assigns, beneficiaries, executors, administrators, heirs and successors.
