Section 1.Grant of Stock Award. This Global Stock Award Agreement, including any additional terms for your country in Appendix A attached hereto (collectively this "Award Agreement"), dated as of the Grant Date indicated in your account maintained by Fidelity Stock Plan Services, LLC or such other company that may provide administrative services in connection with the Plan in the future (the "External Administrator"), is entered into between Keysight Technologies, Inc. (the "Company"), and you as an individual (the "Awardee") who has been granted Restricted Stock Units (this "Stock Award") pursuant to the Keysight Technologies, Inc. 2014 Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan (the "Plan"). This Stock Award represents the right to receive the number of shares of the Company's $0.01 par value voting common stock ("Shares") indicated in Awardee's External Administrator account subject to the fulfillment of the conditions set forth below and pursuant to and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan. The Stock Award is an unfunded and unsecured promise by the Company to deliver Shares in the future. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein are used with the same meanings as in the Plan.

Section 2.Vesting Period. So long as Awardee remains an Awardee Eligible to Vest and has not given or been given notice of termination of his or her Service, the Stock Award shall vest as to 25% of the Shares beginning on the first anniversary of the Grant Date stated in Section 1 above and another 25% on each subsequent anniversary of the Grant Date so that the Stock Award is fully vested on the fourth anniversary of the Grant Date.

Section 3.Nontransferability of Stock Award. This Stock Award shall not be transferable by Awardee otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. The terms of this Stock Award shall be binding on the executors, administrators, heirs and successors of Awardee.

(a)    General. Unless otherwise provided in this Section 4, any unvested Stock Award shall be forfeited immediately upon the date that Awardee gives or is given notice of termination of his or her Service or otherwise ceases to be an Awardee Eligible to Vest (the "Termination Date") (regardless of the reason for such termination and whether or not later found invalid or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction where Awardee is employed or the terms of Awardee's employment agreement, if any). Unless otherwise expressly provided in this Award Agreement or determined by the Administrator or its designee, Awardee's right to vest in the Stock Award under the Plan, if any, will terminate as of such Termination Date and will not be extended by any notice period (e.g., Awardee's period of Service would not include any contractual notice period or any period of "garden leave" or similar period mandated under employment laws in the jurisdiction where Awardee is employed, including, but not limited to statutory law, regulatory law

and/or common law, or the terms of Awardee's employment agreement, if any); the Administrator or its designee shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when Awardee is no longer an Awardee Eligible to Vest for purposes of the Stock Award grant (including whether Awardee may still be considered to be providing Service while on a leave of absence).

(b)    Awardee's Death. Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, if an Awardee dies while providing Service or after Awardee's retirement in accordance with the applicable local retirement policy (as determined by the Company), the Stock Award shall immediately vest in full. The vested portion of the Stock Award shall be delivered to the executor or administrator of Awardee's estate or, if none, to the person(s) entitled to receive the vested Stock Award under Awardee's will or the laws of descent or distribution.

(c)    Awardee's Disability or Workforce Management Program Termination. Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, if an Awardee terminates Service due to total and permanent disability or due to participation in the Company's Workforce Management Program, the Stock Award shall vest in full.

(d)    Awardee's Retirement. Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, if an Awardee terminates Service due to retirement in accordance with the applicable local retirement policy (as determined by the Company), any unvested Stock Award will continue to vest under the vesting schedule set forth in Section 2 above. In addition, except as the Administrator or its designee shall determine otherwise, if Awardee becomes eligible to retire or retires in accordance with the applicable local retirement policy, the Stock Award shall immediately vest as to that portion of the Shares necessary to satisfy any Tax-Related Items (as described in Section 7 below) in connection with such eligibility for retirement or retirement and such Shares shall be used to satisfy such Tax-Related Items (either by withholding in Shares or forcing the sale of Shares pursuant to the authority in this Award Agreement, at the Company's sole discretion). The Administrator, in its sole discretion, may amend or eliminate the provisions of this Section 4(d), as it determines is necessary or advisable in view of applicable local laws or legal judgments.

(e)    Change of Control. In the event of a Change of Control, the Stock Award shall vest in full immediately prior to the closing of the transaction. The foregoing shall not apply where the Stock Award is assumed, converted or replaced in full by the successor corporation or a parent or subsidiary of the successor; provided, however, that in the event of a Change of Control in which one or more of the successor or a parent or subsidiary of the successor has issued publicly traded equity securities, the assumption, conversion, replacement or continuation shall be made by an entity with publicly traded securities and shall provide that the holders of such assumed, converted, replaced or continued Stock Awards shall be able to acquire such publicly traded securities.

Section 5.Settlement of Stock Award. Except as provided in the following sentence, the Stock Award shall be settled on the earlier of (1) the dates that the Stock Award vests in accordance with Section 2 hereof or (2) the events set forth in Section 4(b), (c) or (e) hereof. If Awardee terminates Service due to retirement in accordance with Section 4(d), the Stock Award shall be settled in Shares on the normal vesting dates set forth in Section 2 above, subject to the accelerated vesting of a portion of the Stock Award as set forth in Section 4(d) above, which constitute fixed

payment dates for purposes of Section 409A of the Code, or if earlier, upon a Change of Control pursuant to Section 4(e) hereof.

Section 6.Restrictions on Issuance of Shares of Common Stock. The Company shall not be obligated to issue any Shares pursuant to this Stock Award unless the Shares are at that time effectively registered or exempt from registration under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and as applicable, local laws. Further, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company shall not be obligated to issue any Shares pursuant to this Stock Award if such issuance violates or is not in compliance with any Applicable Laws.

Section 7.Responsibility for Taxes. Awardee acknowledges that, regardless of any action taken by the Company or, if different, the entity to which Awardee is providing Service (the "Employer") the ultimate liability for all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to Awardee's participation in the Plan and legally applicable to Awardee ("Tax-Related Items"), is and remains Awardee's responsibility and may exceed any amount withheld by the Company or the Employer. Awardee further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (1) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Stock Award, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting or settlement of the Stock Award, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such settlement and the receipt of any dividends or other distributions; and (2) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Stock Award to reduce or eliminate Awardee's liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if Awardee is subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction, Awardee acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.

Awardee authorizes the Company and/or the Employer, or their respective agents, in the sole discretion of the Company and/or the Employer and without any notice to or additional authorization from Awardee, to satisfy their withholding obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by withholding from Awardee's wages or other cash compensation paid to Awardee by the Company and/or the Employer, within legal limits, or from proceeds of the sale of Shares. Alternatively, or in addition, if permissible under local law, the Company may in its sole discretion (1) sell or arrange for the sale of Shares that Awardee acquires to meet the withholding obligation for Tax-Related Items (on Awardee's behalf pursuant to this authorization), and/or (2) withhold in Shares, provided that the Company only withholds the amount of Shares necessary to satisfy the minimum withholding amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Awardee is an officer of the Company within the meaning of the Exchange Act, then the Company will withhold in Shares unless the use of such withholding method is not practicable under applicable tax or securities laws or has materially adverse accounting consequences, in which case, the obligation for Tax-Related Items may be satisfied by one or a combination of methods (1) and (2) above.

Depending on the withholding method, the Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding rates or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum applicable rates, in which case Awardee may receive a refund

in cash of any amount withheld that exceeds the amount remitted to the applicable tax authorities and will have no entitlement to the Common Stock equivalent or to any interest on such over-withheld amount. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in Shares, for tax purposes, Awardee is deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject to the vested Stock Award, notwithstanding that a number of the Shares are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items.

Finally, Awardee agrees to pay to the Company or the Employer, any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for as a result of Awardee's participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to issue or deliver the Shares or the proceeds of the sale of Shares, if Awardee fails to comply with Awardee's obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.

Section 8.Adjustment. The number of Shares subject to this Stock Award and the price per Share, if any, of such Shares may be adjusted by the Company from time to time pursuant to the Plan.

(m)the ownership of Shares or assets and/or the holding of a bank or brokerage account may subject Awardee to reporting requirements imposed by tax, banking, and/or other authorities in Awardee's country, that Awardee solely is responsible for complying with such requirements, and that any cross-border cash remittance made to transfer of proceeds received upon the sale of Shares must be made through a locally authorized financial institution or registered foreign exchange agency and may require Awardee to provide to such entity certain information regarding the transaction; and

Restrictions on Sale of Shares of Common Stock. Awardee may not sell or transfer the Shares issued pursuant to the Stock Award prior to the second anniversary of the applicable vesting date or such other period as is required to comply with the minimum mandatory holding period applicable to Shares underlying French-qualified awards under Section L. 225-197-1 of the French Commercial Code, the French Tax Code or the French Social Security Code, as amended. Notwithstanding the

above, Awardee's heirs, in case of Awardee's death, or Awardee in case of Awardee's Disability (as defined under the French RSU Sub-plan), are not subject to this restriction on the sale of Shares.

If Awardee qualifies as a managing director of the Company under French law ("mandataires sociaux" i.e., Président du Conseil d'Administration, Directeur Général, Directeur Général Délégué, Membre du Directoire, Gérant de Sociétés par actions), Awardee is required to hold 20% of the Shares issued upon the vesting of the Stock Award in a nominative account under procedures implemented by the Company and is not permitted to sell or transfer the Shares until he or she ceases to serve as a managing director, as long as this restriction is a requirement under French law and unless law or regulations provide for a lower percentage (in which case these requirements apply to the lower percentage of Shares required to be held).

Any Shares acquired upon vesting of the Stock Award may not be sold during certain Closed Periods as provided for and defined by Section L. 225-197-1 of the French Commercial Code, as amended, and by the French RSU Sub-Plan, for so long as and to the extent that the Closed Periods are applicable to Shares underlying French-qualified Stock Awards granted by the Company. Under current law, such Closed Periods include: (a) ten (10) trading days preceding and three (3) trading days following the disclosure to the public of the consolidated financial statements or the annual statements of the Company; and (b) the period as from the date that information has been disclosed to the Company's corporate management (such as the Board) which could, if disclosed to the public, significantly impact the trading price of the Shares, until ten (10) trading days after the date such information is publicly disclosed.

Consent to Receive Information in English. By accepting the Stock Award, Awardee confirms having read and understood the documents related to the Stock Award (the Plan and the Award Agreement) which were provided in the English language. Awardee accepts the terms of these documents accordingly.

There are currently no country-specific provisions.

Settlement in Shares. Notwithstanding any discretion in the Plan or the Award Agreement to settle the Stock Award in cash, due to tax law considerations in Hong Kong the Stock Award will be settled in Shares only. The Stock Award does not provide any right for Awardee to receive a cash payment.

Sale of Shares. In the event the Stock Award vests within six (6) months of the Grant Date set forth in the Agreement, Awardee agrees that Awardee will not dispose of the Shares acquired prior to the six-month anniversary of the Grant Date.

Nature of Scheme. The Company specifically intends that the Plan will not be an occupational retirement scheme for purposes of the Occupational Retirement Schemes Ordinance.

Securities Law Warning. The contents of this document have not been reviewed by any regulatory authority in Hong Kong. Awardee is advised to exercise caution in relation to the offer of the Stock Award under the Plan. If Awardee is in any doubt about any of the contents of the Award Agreement or the Plan, or any incidental communication materials, Awardee should obtain independent professional advice. The offer of the Stock Award and Shares under the Plan does not constitute a public offering of securities under Hong Kong Law, and is available only to Employees, Directors or Consultants of the Company or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates. The Award Agreement and the Plan, and other incidental communication materials related to the Stock Award, have not been prepared in accordance with and are not intended to constitute a "prospectus" for a public offering of securities under the applicable companies and securities legislation in Hong Kong, and the documents. The Stock Award, the Award Agreement and the Plan, and any incidental communication materials, are intended solely for the personal use of Awardee and may not be distributed to any other person.

Exchange Control Obligations. Awardees resident in India must repatriate to India and convert into local currency any proceeds from the sale of Shares acquired under the Plan within ninety (90) days of receiving such proceeds and any cash dividends paid on Shares acquired under the Plan within one-hundred-eighty (180) days of such payment. Upon repatriation, a foreign inward remittance certificate ("FIRC") will be issued by the bank where the foreign currency is deposited. The FIRC should be retained as evidence of the repatriation of funds in the event the Reserve Bank of India or the Employer requests proof of repatriation. Awardee is solely responsible for complying with any exchange control laws that may apply to the Stock Award or the Shares acquired under the Plan.

Grant Subject to Terms and Conditions of Israel Sub-Plan. The Stock Award is offered to Awardee subject to, and in accordance with, the terms of the Plan and its Sub-Plan for Participants in Israel (the "Israel Sub-Plan"). As such, the Stock Award is intended to qualify for specific tax treatment in Israel under Section 102 (together with its subsections and any similar successor provisions, "Section 102") of the Israeli Income Tax Ordinance [New Version] 1961, as now in effect or as hereafter amended. Certain events may affect the status of the Stock Award as qualified under Section 102 and the Stock Award may be disqualified in the future. The Company does not make any undertaking or representation to maintain the qualified status of the Stock Award.

The Stock Award, the Shares and any rights issued pursuant to the Stock Award and Shares (other than cash dividends) shall be controlled by Meitav Benefits Trust Company, S.G.S Trusts or another

trustee selected by the Company (the "Trustee") for Awardee's benefit for at least such period of time as required by Section 102 or by the Israeli Tax Authority (the "Lock-Up Period").

By accepting the Stock Award, Awardee agrees to be bound by Section 102, the terms of the Plan, the Israel Sub-Plan, the Award Agreement, the trust and services agreement (the "Trust Agreement") with the Trustee, and, upon request of the Company or the Employer, agrees to provide written consent to the terms of any tax ruling or agreement obtained by the Company or the Employer with regard to the Plan and the Israel Sub-Plan ("Tax Ruling").

Until further election by the Company, the Stock Award and any Shares received upon vesting of the Stock Award are intended to qualify for the tax treatment available in Israel pursuant to the provisions of the "capital gain trustee track" under Section 102, including the provisions of the Income Tax Rules (Tax Benefits in Shares Issuance to Employees), 2003 and any Tax Ruling.

The Stock Award is subject to the trust ("Trust") established by the Trust Agreement with the Trustee. To receive the tax treatment provided for in Sections 102(b)(2) and 102(b)(3) of the ITO or successor statute, the Stock Award will be "deposited" (as defined by the ITO) with the Trustee on behalf of Awardee during the Lock-Up Period, which, until further election by the Company, shall be twenty-four (24) months from the Grant Date, or any other period determined under the ITO as now in effect or as hereafter amended or by the Israeli Income Tax Authority. Subject to the expiry of the Lock-Up Period and any further period included herein, Awardee agrees that Shares acquired upon vesting of the Stock Award will be under the supervision of the Trustee until the earlier of (a) the receipt by the Trustee of an acknowledgment from the Israeli Income Tax Authority that Awardee has paid all applicable Tax-Related Items due pursuant to the ITO and Section 102, or (b) the Trustee withholds any applicable Tax-Related Items due pursuant to the ITO and Section 102. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Awardee shall elect to release any Shares acquired upon vesting of the Stock Award prior to the conclusion of the Lock-Up Period, the tax consequences under Section 102 shall apply to and shall be borne solely by Awardee.

The Company may in its sole discretion replace the Trustee from time to time and instruct the transfer of all Stock Awards and Shares held or administered by such Trustee at such time to its successor and the provisions of this Award Agreement shall apply to the new Trustee.

Plan Document Acknowledgement. By accepting the Stock Award, Awardee acknowledges that (a) Awardee has received the Plan and the Award Agreement; (b) Awardee has reviewed those documents in their entirety and fully understands the contents thereof; and (c) Awardee accepts all provisions of the Plan and the Award Agreement. Awardee further acknowledges that Awardee has read and specifically and expressly approves, without limitation, the following sections of the Award Agreement: "Termination of Employment or Service"; "Nontransferability of Stock Award"; "Restrictions on Issuance of Shares of Common Stock"; "Responsibility for Taxes"; "Nature of Award"; "No Advice Regarding Grant"; "Data Privacy" as replaced by the above provision; "No Rights Until Issuance"; "Governing Law and Venue"; "Language"; "Electronic Delivery and Acceptance"; "Imposition of Other Requirements"; "Appendix" "Waiver and Amendments" and "Entire Agreement".

Acknowledgement of the Award. By accepting the Stock Award, Awardee acknowledges that he or she has received a copy of the Plan and the Award Agreement, which Awardee has reviewed. Awardee acknowledges further that he or she accepts all the provisions of the Plan and the Award Agreement. Awardee also acknowledges that he or she has read and specifically and expressly approves the terms and conditions set forth in Section 9: "Nature of Award" in the Award Agreement, which clearly provides as follows:

Labor Law Policy and Acknowledgment. In accepting the Stock Award, Awardee expressly recognizes that Keysight Technologies, Inc., with registered offices at 1400 Fountaingrove Parkway Santa Rosa, CA 95403, is solely responsible for the administration of the Plan and that Awardee's participation in the Plan and acquisition of Shares do not constitute an employment relationship

between Awardee and the Company since Awardee is participating in the Plan on a wholly commercial basis and his or her sole employer is Keysight Technologies México, S. de R.L. de C.V. ("Keysight Mexico"), located at Camino al ITESO 8900, Edificio 1B, Colonia Pinar de la Calma, Zapopan, Jalisco 45080, México. Based on the foregoing, Awardee expressly recognizes that the Plan and the benefits that he or she may derive from participating in the Plan do not establish any rights between Awardee and the employer, Keysight Mexico, and do not form part of the employment conditions and/or benefits provided by Keysight Mexico, and any modification of the Plan or its termination shall not constitute a change or impairment of the terms and conditions of Awardee's employment.

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

Finally, Awardee hereby declares that he or she does not reserve to him- or herself any action or right to bring any claim against the Company for any compensation or damages regarding any provision of the Plan or the benefits derived under the Plan, and Awardee therefore grants a full and broad release to the Company, its Subsidiaries and Affiliates, and its branches, representation offices, shareholders, directors, officers, employees, agents, or legal representatives with respect to any claim that may arise.

There are currently no country-specific provisions.

There are currently no country-specific provisions.

Securities Law Acknowledgment. Awardee understands that the Plan, the Award Agreement and all other materials Awardee may receive regarding participation in the Plan do not constitute advertising or an offering of securities in Russia. The Shares to be issued at vesting of the Stock Award have not and will not be registered in Russia nor admitted for listing on any Russian exchange for trading within Russia. Therefore, the Shares and any other securities described in any Plan-related documents may not be used for public offering or public circulation in Russia. In no event will Shares issued to Awardee pursuant to the Stock Award be delivered to Awardee in Russia; Shares issued to Awardee pursuant to the Stock Award shall be delivered to Awardee through the External Administrator and its affiliated companies (or another Company-designated broker) in the United States and kept on Awardee's behalf in the United States. Awardee is not permitted to sell Shares directly to other Russian legal entities or residents.

Exchange Control Obligations. Proceeds from the sale of Shares must be repatriated to Russia within a reasonably short period after receipt. The sale proceeds must be initially credited to Awardee through a foreign currency account opened in Awardee's name at an authorized bank in Russia. After the sale proceeds are initially received in Russia, they may be further remitted to foreign banks

in accordance with Russian exchange control laws. As an exception, dividends (but not dividend equivalents, if applicable) do not need to be remitted to a Russian resident Awardee's bank account in Russia but instead can be remitted directly to a foreign individual bank account (in countries belonging to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development ("OECD") or the Financial Action Task Force ("FATF")). Certain other exemptions to these requirements may be available or may become available in the future. Awardee should contact his or her personal legal advisor regarding exchange control requirements before Stock Awards vest, before Shares are sold and before any sale proceeds are remitted to Russia, as significant penalties may apply in the case of non-compliance with Russian exchange control law and such requirements are subject to change at any time, often without notice.

Data Privacy. Awardee hereby acknowledges that Awardee has read and understood the terms regarding collection, processing and transfer of Awardee's Data contained in Section 11 of the Award Agreement and Awardee acknowledges that, by accepting the Stock Award, Awardee is agreeing to such terms. In this regard, upon request of the Company, Awardee agrees to provide any executed data privacy consent form to the Employer or the Company (or any other agreements or consents that may be required by the Company) that the Company may deem necessary to obtain under the data privacy laws in Awardee's country, either now or in the future. Awardee understands that Awardee may not be permitted to participate in the Plan if Awardee fails to execute any such consent or agreement.

Sale of Shares. In the event the Stock Award vests within six (6) months of the Grant Date set forth in the Agreement, Awardee agrees that Awardee will not dispose of or otherwise offer to the public the Shares acquired prior to the six-month anniversary of the Grant Date, unless such sale or offer is made pursuant to the exemptions under Part XIII Division 1 Subdivision (4) (other than section 280) of the Securities and Futures Act (Chapter 289, 2006 Ed.) ("SFA").

Securities Law Acknowledgment. Awardee understands that the Stock Award is granted pursuant to the "Qualifying Person" exemption under section 273(1)(f) of the SFA and is not made with a view to the Shares being subsequently offered for sale to any other party. The Plan has not been lodged or registered as a prospectus with the Monetary Authority of Singapore.

Chief Executive Officer and Director Notification Requirement. If Awardee is the chief executive officer ("CEO") or a director, associate director or shadow director¹ of a Singaporean Affiliate or Subsidiary, Awardee is subject to certain notification requirements under the Singapore Companies Act. In particular, Awardee must notify the Singaporean Affiliate or Subsidiary in writing of an interest (e.g., Stock Award, Shares, etc.) in the Company or any related companies within two (2) business days of (a) its acquisition or disposal, (b) any change in a previously disclosed interest (e.g., when the Shares are sold), or (c) becoming the CEO or a director (if such an interest exists at the time).

___________________________

¹ A shadow director is an individual who is not on the board of directors of a company but who has sufficient control so that the board of directors acts in accordance with the "directions or instructions" of the individual.

Securities Law Acknowledgement. The Stock Award and the Shares subject to the Stock Award do not qualify under Spanish regulation as securities. No "offer of securities to the public," as defined under Spanish law, has taken place or will take place in the Spanish territory. The Award Agreement has not been nor will be registered with the Comisión Nacional del Mercado de Valores, and does not constitute a public offering prospectus.

In accepting the Award, Awardee consents to participate in the Plan and acknowledges that he or she has received a copy of the Plan. Awardee understands that the Company has unilaterally, gratuitously and discretionally decided to grant Stock Awards under the Plan to individuals who may be employees of the Company or a Subsidiary or Affiliate. The decision is a limited decision that is entered into upon the express assumption and condition that any grant will not economically or otherwise bind the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, other than as expressly set forth in the Award Agreement. Consequently, Awardee understands that the Stock Award is granted on the assumption and condition that the Stock Award and the Shares issued upon settlement of the Stock Award shall not become a part of any employment contract (either with the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate) and shall not be considered a mandatory benefit, salary for any purposes (including severance compensation) or any other right whatsoever.

Additionally, Awardee understands that the vesting of the Stock Award is expressly conditioned on Awardee's continued and active rendering of Service to the Company or a Subsidiary or Affiliate such that if Awardee's Service is terminated for any reason (including for the reasons listed below but with the exception of the circumstances specified in Section 4(b)-(d) of the Award Agreement), the Award will cease vesting immediately effective as of the Termination Date.  This will be the case, for example, even if (a) Awardee is considered to be unfairly dismissed without good cause (i.e., subject to a "despido improcedente"); (b) Awardee is dismissed for disciplinary or objective reasons or due to a collective dismissal; (c) Awardee's Service is terminated due to a change of work location, duties or any other employment or contractual condition; (d) Awardee's Service is terminated due to unilateral breach of contract of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates; or (e) Awardee's Service is terminated for any other reason (with the exception of the circumstances specified in Section 4(b)-(d) of the Award Agreement).  Consequently, upon termination of Service for any of the above reasons, Awardee will automatically lose any rights to the Stock Award to the extent that it has not yet become vested as of the Termination Date, as described in the Award Agreement.  Awardee acknowledges that he or she has read and specifically accepts the conditions referred to above and in Section 4 of the Award Agreement.

Finally, Awardee understands that this Stock Award would not be made to Awardee but for the assumptions and conditions referred to herein; thus, Awardee 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 the grant of this Stock Award shall be null and void.

There are currently no country-specific provisions.

Securities Law Acknowledgment. The Stock Award is considered a private offering in Switzerland and is not subject to registration in Switzerland. Neither this document nor any other materials relating to the Stock Award (a) constitutes a prospectus as such term is understood pursuant to article 652a of the Swiss Code of Obligations, (b) may be publicly distributed or otherwise made publicly available in Switzerland or (c) has been or will be filed with, approved or supervised by any Swiss regulatory authority (in particular, the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA)).

Securities Law Acknowledgment. The offer of participation in the Plan is available only for employees of the Company, Subsidiaries and Affiliates. The offer of participation in the Plan is not a public offer of securities by a Taiwanese company.

Settlement in Shares. Notwithstanding any discretion in the Plan or the Award Agreement to settle the Stock Award in cash, the Stock Award will be settled in Shares only. The Stock Award does not provide any right for Awardee to receive a cash payment.

Responsibility for Taxes. These provisions supplement Section 7 of the Award Agreement:

If payment or withholding of the income tax due in connection with the Stock Award is not made within ninety (90) days of the end of the tax year in which the taxable event occurs or such other period specified in Section 222(1)(c) of the U.K. Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003 (the "Due Date"), the amount of any uncollected income tax shall constitute a loan owed by Awardee to the Employer, effective on the Due Date. Awardee agrees that the loan will bear interest at the official rate of Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs ("HMRC") and will be immediately due and repayable by Awardee, and the Company and/or the Employer may recover it at any time thereafter by any of the means referred to in Section 7 of the Award Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Awardee is an executive officer or director of the Company (within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act), Awardee shall not be eligible for a loan to cover the income tax due as described above. Instead, the amount of any uncollected income tax may constitute a benefit to Awardee on which additional income tax and National Insurance contributions may be payable. Awardee acknowledges that Awardee will be 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. Awardee further acknowledges that the

Company or the Employer may recover such amounts from Awardee by any of the means referred to in Section 7 of the Award Agreement.

Joint Election.  As a condition of participation in the Plan, Awardee agrees to accept any liability for secondary Class 1 National Insurance contributions which may be payable by the Company and/or the Employer in connection with the Stock Award and any event giving rise to Tax-Related Items (the "Employer's Liability").  Without prejudice to the foregoing, Awardee agrees to enter into a joint election with the Company or the Employer, the form of such joint election being formally approved by HMRC (the "Joint Election") and any other consent or election required to accomplish the transfer of the Employer's Liability to Awardee.  Awardee understands that the Joint Election applies to any Stock Award granted to him or her under the Plan after he or she has entered into the Joint Election.  Awardee further agrees to enter into such other joint elections as may be required between him or her and any successor to the Company and/or the Employer.  Awardee further agrees that the Company and/or the Employer may collect the Employer's Liability from him or her by any of the means set forth in Section 7 of the Award Agreement.

If Awardee does not enter into a Joint Election prior to the first vesting date of the Stock Award or any other event giving rise to Tax-Related Items, he or she will not be entitled to vest in the Stock Award or receive any benefit in connection with the Stock Award unless and until he or she enters into a Joint Election, and no Shares or other benefit pursuant to the Stock Award will be issued to Awardee under the Plan, without any liability to the Company and/or the Employer; provided, however, that this provision shall not apply if Awardee is a U.S. taxpayer and the application of this provision would cause the Stock Award to fail to qualify under an exemption from, or comply with, Section 409A of the Code, as determined by the Company.

There are currently no country-specific provisions.

Settlement in Cash. Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, the Stock Award, once vested, will be settled by means of a cash payment equal to the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date that such Shares would have otherwise been issued under the terms of the Award Agreement.
