We have planned for your Employment Start Date to be on December 3, 2018. Your employment will be for no set duration.

Sign-On LTI Award.   In addition, as an initial sign-on incentive, HGV’s management team will grant you a Long-Term Incentive award with an aggregate grant date value equal to $1,500,000, which will be based on the closing price of HGV’s common stock as of the grant date (determined in accordance with HGV's Stock Granting Policy then in effect). The aggregate grant date value will be awarded in the form of restricted stock units ("RSUs"). The RSUs will be subject to the terms and conditions of the HGV Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan ("LTI Plan”) and the applicable RSU award agreement. One-third of the RSUs will vest and become non-forfeitable on each of the first three anniversaries of your Employment Start Date, provided in each case that you remain continuously employed by HGV through each applicable vesting date. Following the vesting of the RSUs, you will receive one share of HGV common stock for each vested RSU (subject to tax withholding).
