CHANGE IN CONTROL AGREEMENT
WHEREAS, Iron Mountain Incorporated (the Company) has granted and may hereafter grant the undersigned (the Optionee) one or more options (the Options) to purchase shares of the Companys common stock, par value $0.01 (the Common Stock), pursuant to option agreements between the Company and Optionee (each, an Option Agreement); and
WHEREAS, the Optionee and the Company desire to provide to the Optionee an additional component of Good Reason as used in connection with a Vesting Change in Control regarding all outstanding Options held by the Optionee as of the date hereof and as hereafter may be granted under Option Agreements between the Company and the Optionee (as amended and as may be amended or entered into in the future, the Stock Option Agreements);
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the mutual covenants and agreements hereinafter contained, the Optionee and the Company agree that the existing Option Agreements are hereby amended to, and future Option Agreements will, provide, notwithstanding any other provision in a Stock Option Agreement or the plan(s) with respect to which such Options are granted (collectively, the Plans) to the contrary:
1. That the definition of the phrase Good Reason as used in connection with a Vesting Change in Control shall include the following additional component: a material diminution in the responsibilities or title of the Optionees position with Iron Mountain and/or the assignment to Optionee of duties and responsibilities that are generally inconsistent with the Optionees position with Iron Mountain immediately prior to the Vesting Change in Control. For the avoidance of doubt, Good Reason will have occurred if the foregoing component or one of the components of Good Reason in the Plans shall have occurred.
2. Except as otherwise provided herein, all other terms and conditions of each Stock Option Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
Capitalized terms not defined herein have the same meaning given to them in the applicable Stock Option Agreement, or if not defined therein, the applicable Plan.
