2023 INCENTIVE AWARD PLAN

GLOBAL RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT
Capitalized terms not specifically defined in this Global Restricted Stock Unit Agreement, including any additional terms and conditions for Participant’s country set forth in the Appendix hereto (together, this “Agreement”) shall have the meanings specified in that certain Global Restricted Stock Unit Grant Notice (the “Grant Notice”) to which this Agreement relates or, if not defined in the Grant Notice, in the Plan.
ARTICLE I.
GENERAL
Article I.Award of RSUs and Dividend Equivalents.
(a)The Company has granted the RSUs to Participant effective as of the grant date set forth in the Grant Notice (the “Grant Date”). Each RSU represents the right to receive one Share as set forth in this Agreement. Participant will have no right to the distribution of any Shares until the time (if ever) the RSUs have vested.
(b)The Company hereby grants to Participant, with respect to each RSU granted hereunder, a Dividend Equivalent for ordinary cash dividends paid to substantially all holders of outstanding Shares with a record date after the Grant Date and prior to the date the applicable RSU is settled, forfeited or otherwise expires. Each Dividend Equivalent entitles Participant to receive the equivalent value of any such ordinary cash dividends paid on a single Share. The Company will establish a separate Dividend Equivalent bookkeeping account (a “Dividend Equivalent Account”) for each Dividend Equivalent and credit the Dividend Equivalent Account (without interest) on the applicable dividend payment date with the amount of any such cash paid. Any Dividend Equivalents granted in connection with the RSUs issued hereunder, and any amounts that may become distributable in respect thereof, shall be treated separately from such RSUs and the rights arising in connection therewith for purposes of the designation of time and form of payments required by Section 409A.
1.1Incorporation of Terms of Plan. The RSUs and Dividend Equivalents are subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Plan, which is incorporated herein by reference. In the event of any inconsistency between the Plan and this Agreement, the terms of the Plan will control. If the Appendix described in Section 4.15 below applies to Participant, in the event of a conflict between the terms of this Agreement or the Plan and the provisions in the Appendix, the terms and conditions in the Appendix shall control.
1.2Unsecured Promise. The RSUs and Dividend Equivalents will at all times prior to settlement represent an unsecured Company obligation payable only from the Company’s general assets.
ARTICLE II.
VESTING; FORFEITURE AND SETTLEMENT
1.1Vesting; Forfeiture.
(a)General. Subject to and except as otherwise provided in Section 2.1(b) below, the RSUs will vest according to the vesting schedule in the Grant Notice (with any fractional RSUs scheduled to vest on any vesting date treated as determined by the Company in its discretion). Dividend Equivalents (including any Dividend Equivalent Account balance) will vest upon the vesting of the RSUs with respect to which the Dividend Equivalent (including the Dividend Equivalent Account) relates.
(b)Forfeiture.
1

Exhibit 10.2
(i)In the event of Participant’s Termination of Service for any reason, all unvested RSUs (together with their tandem Dividend Equivalents (and any corresponding Dividend Equivalent Account balance)) will immediately and automatically be cancelled and forfeited without payment, except as otherwise determined by the Administrator or provided in a binding written agreement between Participant and the Company or a Subsidiary thereof. For the avoidance of doubt, employment or other service during only a portion of the vesting period, but where Termination of Service has occurred prior to a vesting date, shall not entitle Participant to vest in a pro-rata portion of the RSUs or Dividend Equivalents.
(ii)Participant hereby acknowledges and agrees that Participant shall continue to comply with any restrictive covenants to which Participant is bound pursuant to any written agreement with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (including, if Participant is a party to an employment agreement with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, the restrictive covenants set forth in such employment agreement (if any)) (collectively, “Restrictive Covenants”). In the event that Participant breaches any Restrictive Covenant, then any unvested RSUs or vested RSUs which have not yet been settled will automatically be forfeited and cancelled as of such breach without payment.
1.2Settlement.
(a)RSUs that vest will be paid in Shares, and Dividend Equivalents (including any Dividend Equivalent Account balance) that vest will be paid in cash, in each case, as soon as administratively practicable after vesting, but in no event later than March 15 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the RSU’s vesting date occurs.
(b)Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may delay any payment under this Agreement that the Company reasonably determines would violate Applicable Law until the earliest date the Company reasonably determines the making of the payment will not cause such a violation (in accordance with U.S. Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(7)(ii)); provided the Company reasonably believes the delay will not result in the imposition of excise taxes under Section 409A.
    (c)    Any distribution or delivery to be made to Participant under this Agreement will, if Participant is then deceased, be made to the administrator or executor of Participant’s estate or to Participant’s legal heirs, as applicable. Any such administrator, executor or legal heir must furnish the Company with (i) written notice of his or her status as such and (ii) evidence satisfactory to the Company to establish the validity of the transfer and compliance with any laws or regulations pertaining to said transfer.
(d)    The issuance of Shares upon the vesting of the RSUs is subject to Participant’s continued compliance with all of the applicable requirements of all Applicable Laws and regulations with respect to such issuance.
ARTICLE III.
TAXATION AND TAX WITHHOLDING
1.1Representation. Participant represents to the Company that Participant has reviewed with Participant’s own tax advisors the tax consequences of this award of RSUs and Dividend Equivalents and the transactions contemplated by the Grant Notice and this Agreement. Participant is relying solely on such advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company or any of its agents.
1.2Responsibility for Taxes.
(a)Participant acknowledges that, regardless of any action taken by the Company or, if different, the Subsidiary which employs Participant or to which Participant otherwise renders services (the “Service Recipient”), the ultimate liability for all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to Participant’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable or deemed applicable to Participant (“Tax-Related Items”) is and remains Participant’s responsibility and may exceed the amount (if any) actually withheld by the Company or the
2

Exhibit 10.2
Service Recipient. Participant further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Service Recipient (i) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the RSUs or Dividend Equivalents, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting or settlement of the RSUs or Dividend Equivalents, or the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to the settlement of any RSUs; and (ii) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the RSUs or Dividend Equivalents to reduce or eliminate Participant’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if Participant is subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction, Participant acknowledges that the Company and/or the Service Recipient may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.
(b)In connection with any relevant taxable or tax-withholding event, as applicable, Participant agrees to make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Service Recipient to satisfy Tax-Related Items. In this regard and unless the Administrator determines otherwise, Participant authorizes and agrees that the Company or its agent shall satisfy any applicable withholding obligations or rights with regard to all Tax-Related Items arising in connection with or relating to the RSUs by withholding in Shares to be issued upon settlement of the RSUs. The number of Shares which may be so withheld or surrendered shall be limited to the number of Shares which have a fair market value on the date of withholding no greater than the aggregate amount of such liabilities based on the maximum individual statutory withholding rates in Participant’s applicable jurisdictions for federal, state, local and foreign income tax and payroll tax purposes that are applicable to such taxable income, in accordance with Section 9.5 of the Plan. In the event that such withholding in Shares is problematic under applicable tax or securities law or has materially adverse accounting consequences or if the Administrator determines otherwise, by Participant’s acceptance of this Agreement, (1) Participant authorizes and directs the Company and any brokerage firm determined acceptable to the Company to sell on Participant’s behalf a number of Shares from those Shares issued to Participant as the Company determines to be appropriate to generate cash proceeds sufficient to satisfy any applicable withholding obligations or rights for Tax-Related Items (pursuant to this authorization without further consent), (2) Participant authorizes the Service Provider to withhold Tax-Related Items from Participant’s wages or other cash compensation payable to Participant or (3) the Company may require Participant to make cash payment in an amount equal to the withholding obligations for Tax-Related Items. The Company or Service Recipient shall satisfy any applicable withholding obligations or rights with respect to all Tax-Related Items arising in connection with or relating to the Dividend Equivalents by withholding from the amounts payable in respect of the Dividend Equivalents an amount equal to the withholding obligations for Tax-Related Items.
(c)In all cases, the Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering statutory or other withholding rates, including the maximum rates applicable in Participant’s jurisdiction(s). In the event of over-withholding, Participant may receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash (with no entitlement to the equivalent in Shares) or, if not refunded, Participant may seek a refund from the local tax authorities. In the event of under-withholding, Participant may be required to pay any additional Tax-Related Items directly to the applicable tax authority or to the Company and/or the Service Recipient. If the obligations for Tax-Related Items in connection with the RSUs are satisfied by withholding Shares, for tax purposes, Participant will be deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject to the vested RSUs, notwithstanding that a number of the Shares is held back solely for the purpose of satisfying the withholding obligations for the Tax-Related Items.
(d)Participant agrees to pay the Company or the Service Recipient any amount of Tax-Related Items that cannot be satisfied by the means described above in Section 3.2(b). The Company shall not be obligated to deliver any Shares to Participant or Participant’s legal representative unless and until Participant or Participant’s legal representative shall have paid or otherwise satisfied in full the amount of any withholding obligation for Tax-Related Items resulting from the RSUs, the Dividend Equivalents or the Shares subject to the RSUs.
ARTICLE IV.

or Participant’s receipt, vesting or settlement of the RSUs, the Shares subject to the RSUs or the Dividend Equivalents or the sale of such Shares.

(b)the grant of the RSUs and tandem Dividend Equivalents is exceptional, voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of restricted stock units or dividend equivalents, or benefits in lieu of restricted stock units or dividend equivalents, even if restricted stock units or dividend equivalents have been granted in the past;

(e)the RSUs and Dividend Equivalents and any Shares acquired under the Plan, and the income from and value of the same, are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation;
(f)the RSUs and Dividend Equivalents and any Shares acquired under the Plan, and the income from and value of the same, are not part of normal or expected compensation for any purposes, including but not limited to, calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, end-of-service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, holiday pay, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar payments;
(g)the future value of the Shares underlying the RSUs is unknown, indeterminable, and cannot be predicted with certainty;

(i)for purposes of the RSUs and Dividend Equivalents, the Participant’s employment or other Service Provider status will be considered terminated as of the date he or she is no longer actively providing services to the Company, the Service Recipient or any other Subsidiary (regardless of the reason for such termination and whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction where Participant is employed or the terms of his or her employment agreement, if any), and unless otherwise expressly determined by the Company, Participant’s right to vest in the RSUs or Dividend Equivalents under the Plan, if any, will terminate as of such date and will not be extended by any notice period (e.g., the Participant’s period of Service Provider status would not include any contractual notice period or any period of “garden leave” or similar period mandated under employment laws in the jurisdiction where he or she is employed or providing services or the terms of Participant’s employment or service agreement, if any); the Administrator shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when Participant is no longer actively providing services for purposes of the RSUs and Dividend Equivalents (including whether Participant may still be considered to be providing services while on a leave of absence);

(k)unless otherwise provided in the Plan or by the Company in its discretion, the RSUs and Dividend Equivalents and the benefits evidenced by this Agreement do not create any entitlement to have the RSUs, the Dividend Equivalents and/or any such other benefits transferred to, or assumed by, another company nor to be exchanged, cashed out or substituted for, in connection with any corporate transaction affecting the Shares; and
(l)neither the Company nor any Subsidiary thereof shall be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between Participant’s local currency and the U.S. dollar that may affect the value of the RSUs or Dividend Equivalents or of any amounts due to Participant pursuant to the vesting of the RSUs or Dividend Equivalents or the subsequent sale of any Shares acquired upon settlement of the RSUs.

1.9Limitations Applicable to Section 16 Persons.

1.15Appendix. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement, the RSUs shall be subject to any additional terms and conditions set forth in the Appendix to this Agreement for Participant’s country. Moreover, if Participant relocates to any of the countries included in the Appendix, the additional terms and conditions for such country will apply to Participant, to the extent the Company determines that the application of such terms and conditions is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons. The Appendix constitutes part of this Agreement.

Exhibit 10.2
1.16Electronic Delivery and Participation. The Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related to current or future participation in the Plan by electronic means. Participant hereby consents to receive such documents by electronic delivery and agrees to participate in the Plan through an on-line or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or a third party designated by the Company.
1.17Language. Participant acknowledges that Participant is sufficiently proficient in English or has had an opportunity to consult with an advisor who is sufficiently proficient in the English language, and understands the content of the Grant Notice, the Agreement and other Plan materials. If Participant has received the Grant Notice or this Agreement or any other document related to the Plan and/or the RSUs translated into a language other than English and if the meaning of the translated version is different than the English version, the English version will control, unless otherwise required by Applicable Laws.
1.18Governing Law and Venue. The RSUs, Dividend Equivalents, the Grant Notice and this Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without regard to the conflict of laws principles thereof.

1.19Imposition of other Requirements. The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on Participant’s participation in the Plan, on the RSUs and Dividend Equivalents, and on any Shares acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons, and to require Participant to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing.
1.20Insider Trading/Market Abuse Laws. Depending on Participant’s country or broker’s country, or the country in which the Shares are listed, Participant may be subject to insider trading restrictions and/or market abuse laws in applicable jurisdictions, which may affect Participant’s ability to accept, acquire, sell or attempt to sell, or otherwise dispose of the Shares, rights to Shares (e.g., the RSUs) or rights linked to the value of Shares, during such times as Participant is considered to have “inside information” regarding the Company (as defined by Applicable Laws). Local insider trading laws and regulations may prohibit the cancellation or amendment of orders Participant placed before possessing inside information. Furthermore, Participant may be prohibited from (i) disclosing insider information to any third party, including fellow Employees (other than on a “need to know” basis) and (ii) “tipping” third parties or causing them to otherwise buy or sell securities. Any restrictions under these laws or regulations are separate from and in addition to any restrictions that may be imposed under any applicable Company insider trading policy. Participant acknowledges that it is Participant’s responsibility to comply with any applicable restrictions, and Participant should speak to his or her personal advisor on this matter.
1.21Foreign Asset/Account Reporting, Exchange Control and Tax Reporting. Participant may be subject to foreign asset/account, exchange control and/or tax reporting requirements as a result of the acquisition, holding and/or transfer of Shares or cash (including dividends and the proceeds arising from the sale of Shares) derived from his or her participation in the Plan in, to and/or from a brokerage/bank account or legal entity located outside Participant’s country. Applicable Laws may require that Participant report such accounts, assets, the balances therein, the value thereof and/or the transactions related thereto to the applicable authorities in such country. Participant also may be required to repatriate sale proceeds or other funds received as a result of Participant’s participation in the Plan to his or her country through a designated bank or broker within a certain time after receipt. Participant acknowledges that he or she is responsible for ensuring compliance with any applicable foreign asset/account, exchange control and tax reporting requirements and should consult his or her personal legal advisor on this matter.

GLOBAL RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT

Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Appendix shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Restricted Stock Unit Award Notification, the Global Restricted Stock Unit Agreement (the “RSU Agreement”) and the Plan.

Terms and Conditions

This Appendix includes additional terms and conditions that govern the RSUs and Dividend Equivalents granted to Participant under the Plan if Participant resides and/or works in any of the countries listed below. If Participant is a citizen or resident of a country other than the one in which Participant is currently working and/or residing, transfers to another country after the grant date or is considered a resident of another country for local law purposes, the Company shall, in its discretion, determine the extent to which the additional terms and conditions contained herein apply to Participant.

Notifications

This Appendix also includes information regarding exchange controls and certain other issues of which Participant should be aware with respect to Participant’s participation in the Plan. The information is based on the securities, exchange control and other laws in effect in the respective countries as of October 2023. Such laws are often complex and change frequently, and results may be different based on the particular facts and circumstances. As a result, the Company strongly recommends that Participant not rely on the information noted herein as the only source of information relating to the consequences of Participant’s participation in the Plan because the information may be out of date at the time Participant vests in the RSUs or Dividend Equivalents, acquires Shares or sells Shares he or she acquires under the Plan.

In addition, the information is general in nature and may not apply to Participant’s particular situation, and the Company is not in a position to assure Participant of any particular result. Accordingly, Participant should seek appropriate professional advice as to how the relevant laws in Participant’s country apply to his or her specific situation.

Finally, Participant understands that if he or she is a citizen or resident of a country other than the one in which Participant currently resides and/or works, transfers to another country after the grant date, or is considered a resident of another country for local law purposes, the notifications contained herein may not apply to Participant in the same manner.

Terms and Conditions
The following terms and conditions will be applicable to Participant to the extent that the Company, in its discretion, determines that his or her participation in the Plan will be subject to exchange control restrictions in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”), as implemented by the PRC State Administration of Foreign Exchange (“SAFE”).
SAFE Approval Requirement
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the RSU Agreement or the Plan, no Shares will be issued to Participant unless and until all necessary exchange control or other approvals with respect to the Plan have been obtained from SAFE or its local counterpart (“SAFE Approval”) and provided such SAFE Approval is maintained through each vesting date. In the event that SAFE Approval has not been obtained or is not maintained prior to any vesting date(s), such portion of the RSUs will not vest until such SAFE Approval is obtained (the “Actual Vesting Date”). If Participant’s status as a Service Provider ceases prior to the Actual Vesting Date, Participant will not be entitled to vest in any portion of the RSUs and the RSUs will be forfeited without any liability to the Company or any Subsidiary.
Stock Must Remain With Company’s Designated Broker
Participant agrees to hold any Shares received upon settlement of the RSUs with the Company’s designated broker until the Shares are sold. The limitation shall apply to all Shares issued to Participant under the Plan, whether or not Participant remains a Service Provider.
Forced Sale Restriction
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the RSU Agreement or the Plan, to administer participation in the Plan and to comply with applicable SAFE requirements, Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Company, Fidelity and/or any other designated broker is authorized to direct the sale of any and all Shares acquired under the Plan at any time after acquisition of such Shares. In any event, if Participant experiences a Termination of Service, Participant will be required to sell all Shares acquired upon settlement of the RSUs within such time period as required by the Company in accordance with SAFE requirements. Any Shares remaining in the brokerage account at the end of this period shall be sold by the broker (on behalf of Participant and Participant hereby authorizes such sale). Participant agrees to sign any additional agreements, forms and/or consents that reasonably may be requested by the Company (or the Company’s designated broker) to effectuate the sale of Shares (including, without limitation, as to the transfer of the sale proceeds and other exchange control matters noted below) and shall otherwise cooperate with the Company with respect to such matters. Participant acknowledges that neither the Company nor the designated broker is under any obligation to arrange for the sale of Shares at any particular price (it being understood that the sale will occur in the market) and that broker’s fees and similar expenses may be incurred in any such sale. In any event, when the Shares are sold, the sale proceeds, less any withholding for Tax-Related Items, any broker’s fees or commissions, and any similar

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the RSU Agreement or the Plan, in the event that Participant acquires Shares under the Plan and in the event that the Company, in its discretion, declares payment of any cash dividends on such Shares, Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Company, Fidelity and/or any other designated broker may use such cash dividends to automatically purchase additional Shares to be issued into Participant’s brokerage account. Any additional Shares acquired pursuant to the preceding sentence are subject to the same exchange control requirements as other Shares Participant may hold. Any cash dividends not used to purchase Shares or pay associated costs (e.g., broker fees) will be immediately repatriated to China pursuant to the procedures set by the Company in compliance with SAFE requirements.

Exchange Control Restrictions
By participating in the Plan, Participant understands and agrees that he or she will be required to immediately repatriate to the PRC all cash proceeds due to Participant under the Plan, including any remaining cash dividends, dividend equivalents or sale proceeds from the mandatory or voluntary sale of Shares. Participant understands that such repatriation will need to be effected through a special exchange control account established by the Company or a Subsidiary in the PRC, and Participant hereby consents and agrees that the proceeds may be transferred to such special account prior to being delivered to Participant.
Participant understands that the cash proceeds may be paid to him or her in U.S. dollars or in local currency, at the Company’s discretion. If the proceeds are paid in U.S. dollars, Participant understands that he or she will be required to establish a U.S. dollar bank account in the PRC so the proceeds may be deposited into this account. If the proceeds are paid in local currency, Participant acknowledges that neither the Company, the Service Recipient nor any other Subsidiary is under an obligation to secure any particular currency conversion rate and that the Company (or the Service Recipient or any other Subsidiary) may face delays in converting the proceeds to local currency due to exchange control requirements in the PRC. Participant agrees to bear any currency fluctuation risk between the time the Shares are sold and the time the proceeds are converted into local currency and distributed to Participant.
Participant agrees to comply with any other requirements that may be imposed by the Company to facilitate compliance with exchange control requirements in China.

2023 INCENTIVE AWARD PLAN
GLOBAL RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT
EMPLOYER STATEMENT

Pursuant to Section 3(1) of the Act on Stock Options in employment relations, as amended with effect from 1 January 2019 (the “Stock Option Act”), you are entitled to receive the following information regarding the KLA Corporation (the “Company”) 2023 Incentive Award Plan, as amended and restated (the “Plan”) in a separate written statement.

This statement contains information applicable to your participation in the Plan, as required under the Stock Option Act. Additional terms and conditions of the Plan are described in the Plan and other grant materials, which have been made available to you. In the event of a conflict between a provision contained in this Employer Statement and provisions contained in the Plan materials, this Employer Statement shall prevail. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein, shall have the same meaning as terms defined in the Plan.

1.Date of grant of Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) under the Plan

The grant date of your RSUs is the date on which the Board of Directors of the Company (or a committee thereof) approved the RSU grant and determined it would be effective.

2.Terms or conditions for grant of RSUs

The Plan is offered at the discretion of the Board. The Board may terminate or amend the Plan at any time and without the consent of any participating employees.

3.Vesting Date or Period

Your RSUs will vest over a period of time (“vesting period”), provided you remain employed by or in the service of the Company or the Employer and any performance or other vesting conditions set forth in the grant materials are satisfied, unless the RSUs are vested or terminated earlier for the reasons set forth in the Plan and subject to section 5 of this statement.

4.Exercise price

No exercise price is payable upon the settlement of your RSUs in Shares in accordance with the vesting and settlement schedule described in the grant materials.

5.Your rights upon termination of employment

If you terminate service for any or no reason prior to vesting, the unvested RSUs will thereupon be forfeited at no cost to the Company and without any payment (in cash or otherwise) to you.
6.Financial aspects of participating in the Plan

The grant of RSUs has no immediate financial consequences for you. The value of the RSUs is not taken into account when calculating holiday allowances, pension contributions or other statutory consideration calculated on the basis of salary.

Shares are financial instruments and investing in them will always have financial risk. The future value of Shares is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty. The possibility of profit at the time you sell my shares will not only be dependent on the Company’s financial development, but also on the general development of the stock market, among other things.

EMPLOYER STATEMENT

I henhold til § 3, stk. 1, i lov om brug af køberet eller tegningsret m.v. i ansættelsesforhold som ændret med virkning fra 1. januar 2019 (“Aktieoptionsloven”) er du berettiget til i en særskilt skriftlig erklæring at modtage følgende oplysninger vedrørende KLA Corporation (“Selskabets”) 2023 Incentive Award Plan, as amended and restated (herefter “Ordningen”).

Denne erklæring indeholder de i henhold til Aktieoptionsloven krævede oplysninger vedrørende din deltagelse i Ordningen. Yderligere vilkår og betingelser for Ordningen er beskrevet i Ordningen og det andet tildeldingsmateriale, som du har fået udleveret. I tilfælde af uoverensstemmelser mellem en bestemmelse i denne Arbejdsgivererklæring og bestemmelserne i tilmeldingsmaterialet har denne Arbejdsgivererklæring forrang. Begreber, der står med stort begyndelsesbogstav i denne Arbejdsgivererklæring, men som ikke er defineret heri, har samme betydning som de begreber, der er defineret i Ordningen.

1.    Tildelingstidspunkt

Tidspunktet for tildelingen af dine RSU’er er den dato, hvor Selskabets Bestyrelse (eller det af Bestyrelsen nedsatte vederlagsudvalg) godkendte tildelingen og fastslog gyldigheden deraf.

2.    Betingelser for tildeling af RSU’er

Ordningen tilbydes efter Bestyrelsens skøn. Bestyrelsen kan til enhver tid ophæve eller ændre Ordningen uden de deltagende medarbejderes samtykke.

3.    Modningstidspunkt eller-periode

Dine RSU’er modnes over en periode (“modningsperioden”), forudsat at du fortsat er ansat i eller arbejder for Selskabet eller Arbejdsgiveren, og at alle de i tildelingsmaterialet beskrevne modningsbetingelser er opfyldt, medmindre RSU’erne modnes eller bortfalder på et tidligere tidspunkt af de i Ordningen anførte årsager og med forbehold for pkt. 5 i denne erklæring.

4.    Udnyttelseskurs

Der skal ikke betales nogen udnyttelseskurs i forbindelse med konverteringen af dine RSU’er til Aktier i overensstemmelse med den det andet tildeldingsmateriale beskrevne modningsplan.

5.    Dine rettigheder ved fratræden

Hvis dit ansættelsesforhold på noget tidspunkt inden modning ophører, uanset årsag, bortfalder de ikke-modnede RSU'er, uden omkostninger for Selskabet, og uden at du modtager betaling af nogen art, hverken kontant eller i øvrigt.

6.    Økonomiske aspekter ved deltagelse i Ordningen

Tildelingen af RSU’er har ingen umiddelbare økonomiske konsekvenser for dig. Værdien af RSU'erne indgår ikke i beregningen af feriepenge, pensionsbidrag eller øvrige lovbestemte vederlagsafhængige ydelser.

Aktier er finansielle instrumenter, og investering i dem vil altid være forbundet med en økonomisk risiko. Den fremtidige værdi af Aktier er ukendt og kan ikke forudsiges med sikkerhed. Muligheden for en gevinst på det tidspunkt, hvor du sælger dine Aktier, afhænger ikke kun af Selskabets økonomiske udvikling, men også bl.a. af den generelle udvikling på aktiemarkedet.

Responsibility for Taxes

The following paragraphs supplement paragraph 3.2 of the RSU Agreement:

Without limitation to the Responsibility for Taxes section, Participant hereby agrees that he or she 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 Service Recipient or by HM Revenue & Customs (“HMRC”) (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority).  Participant also hereby agrees to indemnify and keep indemnified the Company and the Service Recipientagainst 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 an executive officer or director of the Company within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act, the terms of the immediately foregoing provision will not apply in case the indemnification is considered to be a loan. In this case and if the income tax is not collected from or paid by him or her within ninety days of the end of the U.K. tax year in which an event giving rise to the indemnification described above occurs, the amount of any uncollected income tax may constitute a benefit to Participant on which additional income tax and National Insurance Contributions (“NICs”) may be payable. Participant acknowledges and agrees that he or she 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 Service Recipient (as applicable) for the value of any employee NICs due on this additional benefit. Participant further acknowledges and agrees that the Company or the Service Recipient may obtain such amounts from Participant by any of the means described in Section 3.2 of the RSU Agreement.

As a condition of Participant’s participation in the Plan and the vesting of the RSUs, Participant agrees to accept any liability for secondary Class 1 NICs (the “Employer’s Liability”) which may be payable by the Company and/or the Service Recipient in connection with the RSUs and any event giving rise to Tax-Related Items.

Participant further agrees that the Company and/or the Service Recipient may collect the Employer’s Liability by any of the means set forth in Section 3.2 of the RSU Agreement.
