Participant further acknowledges that the Company and the Employer (a) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Option; and (b) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Option to reduce or eliminate Participant’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result.

the applicable withholding event, then Participant will be entitled to elect the method of withholding from alternatives (i) – (iv) above.

Depending on the withholding method, the Company may withhold for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding amounts or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum applicable rates, in which case Participant may receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash and will have no entitlement to the equivalent amount in Shares. The Company may refuse to honor the exercise of the Option or refuse to issue or deliver the Shares or the proceeds of the sale of Shares, if Participant fails to comply with his or her obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.

4.    Recoupment Provision.     In the event that Participant commits fraud or engages in intentional misconduct that results in a need for the Company to restate its financial statements, then the Committee may direct the Company to (i) cancel any outstanding portion of the Option and (ii) recover all or a portion of the financial gain realized by Participant through exercise of the Option. Participant shall also be subject to the provisions of Section 19 of the Plan regarding recoupment of compensation payable under the Option.

9.    Imposition of Other Requirements. This grant is subject to, and limited by, all applicable laws and regulations and to such approvals by any governmental agencies or national securities exchanges as may be required. Participant agrees that the Company shall have unilateral authority to amend the Plan and this Award Agreement without Participant’s consent to the extent necessary to comply with securities or other laws applicable to the issuance of Shares.

If Participant is a resident or domiciled in Brazil, he or she may be required to submit a declaration of assets and rights held outside of Brazil to the Central Bank of Brazil, depending on the aggregate value of such assets and rights. If the aggregate value of such assets and rights is US$100,000 or more but less than US$100,000,000, a declaration must be submitted annually. If the aggregate value exceeds US$100,000,000, a declaration must be submitted quarterly. Assets and rights that must be reported include Shares.

Form of Payment for Options. Due to legal restrictions in Canada, Participant may not pay the exercise price or Tax-Related Items by surrendering Shares that he or she already owns or by attesting to the ownership of Shares.

Securities Law Information. Participant is permitted to sell Shares acquired under the Plan through UBS or such other broker designated under the Plan, provided that the resale of such Shares takes place outside of Canada through the facilities of a stock exchange on which the Shares are listed. The Company’s ordinary shares are currently traded on the New York Stock Exchange which is located outside of Canada, under the ticker symbol “IR” and Shares acquired under the Plan may be sold through this exchange.

Foreign Asset / Account Reporting Information. Foreign specified property, including Shares and rights to Shares (e.g., Options), held by a Canadian resident must be reported annually on Form T1135 (Foreign Income Verification Statement) if the total cost of such foreign specified property exceeds C$100,000 at any time during the year. If applicable, Form T1135 is due by April 30th of the following year. Options must be reported – generally at a nil cost – if the C$100,000 cost threshold is exceeded because of other foreign specified property held by the resident. When Shares are acquired, their cost generally is the adjusted cost base (“ACB”) of the Shares. The ACB would ordinarily equal the fair market value of the Shares at the time of acquisition, but if other Shares are owned, this ACB may have to be averaged with the ACB of the other Shares. Participant is responsible for ensuring his or her compliance with any applicable reporting obligations and should speak to his or her personal legal advisor on this matter.

Language Consent. The parties acknowledge that it is their express wish that the Award Agreement, as well as all documents, notices, and legal proceedings entered into, given or instituted pursuant hereto or relating directly or indirectly hereto, be drawn up in English.

Data Privacy. This provision supplements the above “Data Privacy” provision of the Appendix:

Participant hereby authorizes the Company and the Company’s representatives to discuss with and obtain all relevant information from all personnel, professional or not, involved in the administration and operation of the Plan. Participant further authorizes the Company, its Affiliates and UBS (or any other stock plan service provider that may be selected by the Company to assist with the Plan) to disclose and discuss the Plan with their respective advisors. Participant further authorizes the Company and its Affiliates to record such information and to keep such information in Participant’s employee file.

Securities Law Information. The offer of Options constitutes a private offering in Chile effective as of the Grant Date. The offer of Options is made subject to ruling N° 336 of the Chilean Commission for the Financial Market (“CMF”). This offer refers to securities not registered at the securities registry or at the foreign securities registry of the CMF, and therefore such securities are not subject to its oversight. Given that these securities are not registered in Chile, there is no obligation from the issuer to provide public information on them in Chile. These securities cannot be subject to public offering in Chile while they are not registered at the corresponding securities registry in Chile.

Exchange Control Information. If Participant remits funds in excess of US$10,000 out of Chile to pay the exercise price of the Option, the funds must be transferred through the Formal Exchange Market (“FEM”) (i.e., a commercial bank or registered foreign exchange office). In addition, exchange control reporting requirements will apply if the value of any Shares acquired without the remittance of funds out of Chile exceeds US$10,000.  This requirement applies in the case of the exercise of the Option without the remittance of funds out of Chile. Moreover, additional reporting requirements will apply if Participant’s aggregate investments abroad exceed US$5,000,000 at any time in a calendar year.  Finally, if Participant repatriates funds related to the Plan (e.g., sale proceeds, dividends) to Chile and the amount of such funds exceeds $10,000, or if Participant repatriates sale proceeds from Shares that were purchased with funds that were required to be transferred out of Chile through the FEM, such repatriation must be effected through the FEM.

Foreign Asset / Account Reporting Information. Participant will also be required to provide certain information to the Chilean Internal Revenue Service (“CIRS”) regarding the results of investments held abroad and the taxes paid abroad. The sworn statements disclosing this information must be submitted electronically through the CIRS website, www.sii/cl, using Form 1929, which is due on June 30 each year.

Exchange control and tax reporting requirements in Chile are subject to change. Participant is responsible for ensuring his or her compliance with any applicable reporting obligations and should speak to his or her personal legal advisor on this matter.

Form of Payment for Options. To facilitate compliance with any applicable laws or regulations in China, Participant will be required to pay the exercise price through the delivery of irrevocable instructions to a broker to sell all of the Shares obtained upon exercise of the Option and to deliver promptly to the Company an amount out of the proceeds of such sale equal to the aggregate exercise price for the Shares being purchased. The remaining proceeds of the sale of the Shares, less any Tax-Related Items and broker’s fees or commissions, will be remitted to Participant in accordance with any applicable exchange control laws and regulations. The Company reserves the right to allow additional forms of payment depending on the development of local law.

Exchange Control Restrictions. Participant understands and agrees that, if he or she is a PRC national and subject to exchange control restrictions in China, he or she will be required to immediately repatriate the proceeds of the sale of Shares to China. Participant further understands that the repatriation of such funds may need to be effected through a special exchange control account established by the Company or an Affiliate and he or she hereby consents and agrees that such funds may be transferred to such special account prior to being delivered to Participant’s personal account. Participant also understands that the Company will deliver any sale proceeds to Participant as soon as practicable, but that there may be delays in distributing the funds due to exchange control requirements in China. Proceeds may be paid to Participant in U.S. dollars or local currency at the Company’s discretion. If the proceeds are paid in U.S. dollars, Participant will be required to set up a U.S. dollar bank account in China so that the proceeds may be deposited into this account. If the proceeds are paid in local currency, the Company is under no obligation to secure any particular currency conversion rate and the Company may face delays in converting the proceeds to local currency due to exchange control restrictions, and Participant agrees to bear any currency fluctuation risk between the time the Shares are sold and the time (i) the Tax-Related Items are converted to local currency and remitted to the tax authorities and/or (ii) the net proceeds are converted to local currency and distributed to Participant. Participant further agrees to comply with any other requirements that may be imposed by the Company in the future in order to facilitate compliance with exchange control requirements in China.

Exchange Control Information. PRC residents are required to report to the State Administration of Foreign Exchange details of their foreign financial assets and liabilities, as well as details of any economic transactions conducted with non-PRC residents, either directly or through financial institutions. Under these rules, Participant may be subject to reporting obligations for the Options and Plan-related transactions. Participant should consult his or her personal legal advisor for further information about this requirement.

Nature of Grant. This provision supplements the above “Nature of Grant” provision of the Appendix:

Participant acknowledges that, pursuant to Article 128 of the Colombian Labor Code, the Option and related benefits does not constitute a component of Participant’s “salary” for any legal purpose.

Securities Law Information. The Shares are not and will not be registered in the Colombian registry of publicly traded securities (Registro Nacional de Valores y Emisores) and, therefore, the Shares may not be offered to the public in Colombia.

If applicable, Participant must determine whether Participant will treat his or her investments (e.g., Shares) as a (a) permanent investment or (b) a financial / temporary investment, as follows:

Colombian law does not provide specific criteria to differentiate between treatment as a permanent investment or financial / temporary investment. If funds are repatriated to Colombia and Participant has not registered the investment with the Central Bank, Participant must file Form No. 5 with the Central Bank upon conversion of funds into local currency. If the investment was previously registered with the Central Bank, then Participant must file Form No. 4 with the Central Bank upon conversion of funds into local currency. Participant should consult with his or her personal legal advisor to ensure compliance with the applicable requirements.

Foreign Asset / Account Reporting Information. Participant may be required to file an annual information return detailing any assets held abroad to the Colombian Tax Office.

This confirmation is not necessary if Participant pays the exercise price through the delivery of irrevocable instructions to a broker to sell Shares obtained upon exercise of the Option and to deliver promptly to the Company an amount out of the proceeds of such sale equal to the aggregate exercise price for the Shares being purchased, because in this case there is no remittance of funds out of Korea.

Based on the foregoing, Participant expressly recognizes that the Plan and the benefits that Participant may derive from his or her participation in the Plan do not establish any rights between Participant and Ingersoll-Rand-Mexico, and do not form part of the employment conditions and/or benefits provided by Ingersoll-Rand-Mexico and any modification of the Plan or its termination shall not constitute a change or impairment of the terms and conditions of Participant’s employment.

Participant further understands that his or her participation in the Plan is a result of a unilateral and discretionary decision of the Company; therefore, the Company reserves the absolute right to amend and/or discontinue Participant’s participation at any time without any liability to Participant.

Nature of Grant. This provision supplements Section 1 of the Stock Option Award Agreement and the above “Nature of Grant” provision of the Appendix:

In accepting the Award, Participant consents to participate in the Plan and acknowledges having received and read a copy of the Plan.

Participant understands that the Company has unilaterally, gratuitously and discretionally decided to grant awards under the Plan to individuals who may be employees of the Company or an Affiliate throughout the world. The decision is a limited decision that is entered into upon the express assumption and condition that any grant will not bind the Company or any Affiliate over and above the specific terms of the Plan and this Award Agreement. Consequently, Participant understands that the Award is granted on the assumption and condition that such Award and any Shares acquired upon exercise of the Option shall not become a part of any employment contract (either with the Company or any Affiliate) and shall not be considered a mandatory benefit, salary for any purposes (including severance compensation) or any other right whatsoever. In addition, Participant understands that the Award would not be granted but for the assumptions and conditions referred to above; thus, Participant acknowledges and freely accepts that should any or all of the assumptions be mistaken or should any of the conditions not be met for any reason, then any grant of the Option shall be null and void.

Further, Participant understands and agrees that, as a condition of the grant of the Option, except as provided for in Section 1 of the Stock Option Award Agreement, Participant’s termination of employment for any reason (including for the reasons listed below) will automatically result in the loss of the Option to the extent the Option has not vested and become exercisable as of the date Participant is no longer actively employed. In particular, except as provided for in Section 1 of the Stock Option Award Agreement, Participant understands and agrees that (i) any unvested portion of the Option as of the date Participant’s active employment ends, and (ii) any vested portion of the Option that is not exercised within the period following the date Participant’s active employment ends set forth in Section 1 of the Stock Option Award Agreement will be forfeited without entitlement to the underlying Shares or to any amount as indemnification in the event of a termination by reason of, including, but not limited to: resignation, disciplinary dismissal adjudged to be with cause, disciplinary dismissal adjudged or recognized to be without cause, individual or collective layoff on objective grounds, whether adjudged to be with cause or adjudged or recognized to be without cause, material modification of the terms of employment under Article 41 of the Workers’ Statute, relocation under Article 40 of the Workers’ Statute, Article 50 of the Workers’ Statute, unilateral withdrawal by the Employer, and under Article 10.3 of Royal Decree 1382/1985.

Participant may be required to declare electronically to the Bank of Spain any foreign accounts (including brokerage accounts held abroad), any foreign instruments (including Shares acquired under the Plan), and any transactions with non-Spanish residents (including any payment of cash or Shares made by the Company) depending on the value of the transactions during the relevant year or the balances in such accounts and the value of such instruments as of December 31 of the relevant year. Participant should consult with his or her personal legal advisor regarding the applicable thresholds and corresponding reporting requirements.

Participant is required to report assets or rights deposited or held outside of Spain (including Shares acquired under the Plan or cash proceeds from the sale of Shares acquired under the Plan) if the value of such right or asset exceeds €50,000 per type of asset or right.  This

obligation applies to assets and rights held as of December 31 (or at any time during the year in which the asset or right is sold or otherwise disposed of) and requires that information on such assets and rights be included in Participant’s tax return filed with the Spanish tax authorities for such year.  After such assets or rights are initially reported, the reporting obligation will apply for subsequent years only if the value of any previously reported asset or right increases by more than €20,000 or if ownership of such asset or right is transferred or relinquished during the year.

Securities Law Information. No “offer of securities to the public,” within the meaning of Spanish law, has taken place or will take place in the Spanish territory in connection with the Option. The Plan, the Award Agreement and any other documents evidencing the grant of the Option have not been, nor will they be, registered with the Comisión Nacional del Mercado de Valores (the Spanish securities regulator), and none of those documents constitutes a public offering prospectus.

Vesting and Exercisability. This provision replaces Section 1(e) of the Stock Option Award Agreement:

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 1(a) through (d) above, if Participant’s employment terminates due to retirement under the retirement provisions of local law in Participant’s country (“Retirement”), all unvested Options shall continue to vest according to their original vesting schedule and Participant shall have 5 years from the date of termination of active employment to exercise all vested Options.

Exchange Control Information. Participant may acquire and remit foreign currency (including funds for the purchase of Shares and proceeds from the sale of Shares) up to US$5,000,000 per year without justification. If the transaction amount is TWD500,000 or more in a single transaction, Participant must submit a Foreign Exchange Transaction Form. If the transaction amount is US$500,000 or more in a single transaction, Participant must also provide supporting documentation to the satisfaction of the remitting bank.

Exchange Control Information. If the proceeds from the sale of Shares or any cash dividends received in relation to the Shares exceed US$50,000, Participant must (i) immediately repatriate such funds to Thailand and (ii) report the inward remittance to the Bank of Thailand on a Foreign Exchange Transaction Form. In addition, within 360 days of repatriation, Participant must convert any funds repatriated to Thailand to Thai Baht or deposit the funds in a foreign exchange account with a Thai bank.

Securities Law Information. The Options are made available only to employees of the Company and its Affiliates, and the offer of participation in the Plan is a private offering. Participant is not permitted to publicly offer any Shares acquired under the Plan in Turkey unless such public offering is approved by the Turkish Capital Markets Board in accordance with Turkish laws. The Shares are currently traded on the New York Stock Exchange, which is located outside of Turkey, under the ticker symbol “IR” and Shares acquired under the Plan may be sold through this exchange.

Exchange Control Information. Exchange control regulations require Turkish residents to conduct any activity related to investments in foreign securities through a bank or financial intermediary institution

licensed by the Turkish Capital Markets Board. Participant should consult with his or her personal legal advisor regarding this requirement.

Securities Law Information. The Award Agreement, the Plan, and other incidental communication materials related to the Option are intended for distribution only to employees of the Company and its Affiliates for the purposes of an incentive scheme.

The Emirates Securities and Commodities Authority and the Central Bank have no responsibility for reviewing or verifying any documents in connection with this statement. Neither the Ministry of Economy nor the Dubai Department of Economic Development have approved this statement nor taken steps to verify the information set out in it, and have no responsibility for it.

The securities to which this statement relates may be illiquid and/or subject to restrictions on their resale. Prospective purchasers of the securities offered should conduct their own due diligence on the securities.

If Participant does not understand the contents of the Award Agreement or the Plan, he or she should consult an authorized financial adviser.

Vesting and Exercisability. This provision replaces Section 1(e) of the Stock Option Award Agreement:

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 1(a) through (d) above, if Participant’s employment terminates due to retirement under the retirement provisions of local law in Participant’s country (“Retirement”), all unvested Options shall continue to vest according to their original vesting schedule and Participant shall have 5 years from the date of termination of active employment to exercise all vested Options.

Responsibility for Taxes. This provision supplements Section 3 of the Stock Option Award Agreement:

Without limitation to Section 3 of the Stock Option Award Agreement, Participant agrees that Participant is liable for all Tax-Related Items and hereby covenants to pay all such Tax-Related Items, as and when requested by the Company or the Employer or by Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs (“HMRC”) (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority). Participant also agrees to indemnify and keep indemnified the Company and the Employer against any Tax-Related Items that they are required to pay or withhold or have paid or will pay to HMRC (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority) on Participant’s behalf.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Participant is a director or executive officer of the Company (within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act), the immediately foregoing provision will not apply; instead, the amount of any uncollected income tax may constitute a benefit to Participant on which additional income tax and national insurance contributions may be payable. Participant is responsible for reporting and paying any income tax due on this additional benefit directly to HMRC under the self-assessment regime and for paying the Company or the Employer (as applicable) for the value of any employee national insurance contributions due on this additional benefit.

Foreign Asset / Account Reporting Information. Under the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (“FATCA”), United States taxpayers who hold Shares or rights to acquire Shares (i.e., Options) may be required to report certain information related to their holdings to the extent the aggregate value of the Options/

Shares exceeds certain thresholds (depending on Participant’s filing status) with the Participant’s annual tax return. Participant should consult with his personal tax or legal advisor regarding any FATCA reporting requirements with respect to the Options or any Shares acquired under the Options.

In addition, Report of Foreign Bank and Financial Account (FBAR) requirements may also apply to Participant if Participants hold assets, such as Shares, outside the U.S.

Exchange Control Information. Exchange control restrictions may limit the ability to remit funds out of Venezuela in order to exercise the Option or remit funds into Venezuela following the receipt of the proceeds from the cashless exercise of the Option. The Company reserves the right to further restrict the exercise of the Option or to amend or cancel the Option at any time in order to comply with applicable exchange control laws in Venezuela. Participant is responsible for complying with exchange control laws in Venezuela and neither the Company nor the Employer will be liable for any fines or penalties resulting from Participant’s failure to comply with applicable laws. Because exchange control laws and regulations change frequently and without notice, Participant should consult with his or her personal legal advisor before accepting the Option and before exercising the Option and/or selling any Shares acquired upon exercise of the Option to ensure compliance with current regulations.

 

Securities Law Information. Participant has met the eligibility requirements set forth in the Plan. The offering of the Option is personal, private, exclusive and non-transferable and does not qualify as a public offering under the laws of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela. Therefore, previous authorization of the National Superintendent of Securities is not required for the offer.
