Form of Notice of Grant of Restricted Stock Unit Awards (Time-Vesting) for Non-Employee Directors under the Leidos Holdings, Inc. 2017 Omnibus Plan

Leidos Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) hereby grants this Restricted Stock Unit Award (the “Award”) of the number of Restricted Stock Units set forth in this Notice of Grant of Restricted Stock Unit Award (the “Notice”) to the Grantee designated in this Notice, pursuant to the provisions of the Company’s 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) and subject to certain restrictions as outlined below in this Notice and the additional provisions set forth in the attached Terms and Conditions of Restricted Stock Units Award (the “Terms”). Together, this Notice, the attached Terms and all exhibits and appendices hereto constitute the “Agreement.” The terms and conditions of the Plan are incorporated by reference in their entirety into this Agreement. When used in this Agreement, the terms that are defined in the Plan shall have the meanings given to them in the Plan, as modified herein (if applicable).

Award Details:     The Grantee’s name, the number of Restricted Stock Units awarded and the Grant Date can be found in the Grant Summary located in the electronic stock plan award administration system maintained by the Company or its designee that contains a link to this Agreement (which summary information is set forth in the appropriate records of the Company authorizing such award).

Vesting Schedule: Subject to the terms of the Plan and this Agreement, the Restricted Stock Units shall become earned and vested, and shares of Stock shall be issued in settlement of vested Restricted Stock Units, on the earlier of (i) the first-year anniversary of the Grant Date, or (ii) the date the annual meeting of stockholders of the Company following the Grant Date is concluded (the “Vesting Date”), provided the Grantee does not have a Separation from Service prior to the Vesting Date. Exhibit A to this Notice sets forth the terms and provisions regarding treatment of the Award upon Separation form Service. No Restricted Stock Units shall become earned and vested following the Grantee’s Separation from Service except as otherwise expressly provided in Exhibit A to this Notice or as otherwise provided pursuant to the terms of the Plan.

(a)    Impact of Separation from Service; Change in Control. If the Grantee has a Separation from Service before the Vesting Date, then any unearned Restricted Stock Units shall become earned and vested or be canceled depending on the reason for Separation from Service as follows:

 

(i)    Death or Disability. If the Grantee has a Separation from Service due to the Grantee’s death or Disability, any unearned Restricted Stock Units shall become immediately earned and vested as of the date of such Separation from Service. In addition, in the event of the Grantee’s death after Separation from Service due to Special Retirement, any Restricted Stock Units that had not yet become earned and vested shall become immediately earned and vested as of the date of such death.

(ii)    Special Retirement. If the Grantee has a Separation from Service due to Special Retirement, the Restricted Stock Units shall continue to become earned and vested on the Vesting date as if the Grantee had not had a Separation from Service, but provided that the Grantee complies with the requirements of Section 7(m) of the Terms (regarding compliance with post-employment covenants).

(iii)    Change in Control. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary but subject to the provisions of Section 15.3.1(i) of the Plan, if (A) a Change in Control occurs and (B) the Grantee has a Change in Control Termination, then any unearned Restricted Stock Units shall become immediately earned and vested as of the date of such Change in Control Termination.

(iv)      Any other Separation from Service. If the Grantee has a Separation from Service for any reason other than as specified in subparagraphs (i) through (iii) above prior to the Vesting Date, the Restricted Stock Units shall be immediately canceled as of the date of Separation from Service.

(b)    Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

        

“Change in Control Termination” means the Grantee’s Separation from Service on or within two years after a Change in Control if such Separation from Service is by action of the Company.

“Disability” means the status of disability determined conclusively by the Company based upon certification of disability by the Social Security Administration or, to the extent compliant with Section 409A, upon such other proof as the Company may require, effective upon receipt of such certification or other proof by the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Grantee is eligible for Special Retirement as of the date of a Separation from Service due to Disability, the Separation from Service will be treated as Special Retirement and not Separation from Service due to Disability.

    

“Special Retirement” means the Grantee’s Separation from Service for any reason other than death (A) after the Grantee has reached the applicable mandatory retirement age applicable to Non-Employee Directors or (B) at the end of a term of office if the Grantee is not nominated for a successive term of office on account of the fact that the Grantee would have reached the applicable mandatory retirement age during such successive term of office, regardless of years of service with the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Grantee’s Separation from Service during the two-year period following a Change in Control could be treated as either a

Special Retirement or a Change in Control Termination, it shall be treated as a Change in Control Termination to the extent permitted by Section 409A.

The Restricted Stock Unit Award (the “Award”) granted by Leidos Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) to the Grantee specified in the Notice of Grant of Restricted Stock Unit Award (the “Notice”) to which these Terms and Conditions of Restricted Stock Unit Award (the “Terms”) are attached, is subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, the Notice, these Terms. The terms and conditions of the Plan are incorporated by reference in their entirety into these Terms. The Notice and these Terms (including any exhibits or appendices) together constitute the “Agreement.” A Prospectus describing the Plan has been delivered to the Grantee. The Plan itself is available upon request. When used in this Agreement, the terms which are defined in the Plan shall have the meanings given to them in the Plan, as modified herein (if applicable). For purposes of these Terms, any reference to the Company shall include a reference to any Subsidiary.

(a)    As of the Grant Date set forth in the Notice, Leidos Holdings, Inc. grants to the Grantee the number of Restricted Stock Units (“Units”) set forth in the Notice. Each Unit represents the right to receive one share of Stock at a future date after the Unit has become earned and vested, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

(b)    The Units covered by this Award shall become earned and vested in accordance with the schedule set forth in the Notice. Each earned and vested Unit shall be settled on the date(s) specified in the Notice by issuance of one share of Stock on or as soon as administratively practicable (but no more than 75 days) after the applicable vesting and/or settlement date specified in the Notice, subject to the requirements of the Plan and this Agreement.

(c)    Units constitute an unfunded and unsecured obligation of the Company. The Grantee shall not have any rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to the shares of Stock underlying the Units unless and until the Units become earned and vested and are settled by the issuance of shares of Stock. Upon issuance of shares of Stock in connection with the settlement of vested Units, the Grantee shall be the record owner of the shares of Stock unless and until such shares are sold or otherwise disposed of, and as record owner shall be entitled to all rights of a stockholder of the Company (including voting rights).

(d)    Units earned will receive dividend equivalents paid in cash (without interest) based on the dividend rates in effect during the vesting period applied to the number of Units the Grantee earns, which will be subject to the vesting provisions set forth in the Notice. Cash dividend equivalents accrued on the earned Units will be paid in cash on or about the same time the earned Units are settled and paid.

(e)    Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, payment of Units that become earned and vested under this Agreement may be deferred under the terms of the Company’s Key Executive Stock Deferral Plan (or any similar plan or program) in which the Grantee is eligible to participate, subject to the terms and conditions of such plan and the requirements of Section 409A. Any Units deferred under any such plan shall be administered in accordance with the terms and provisions of such plan.

(a)    Regardless of any action the Company takes with respect to any or all income tax, payroll tax or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), the Grantee acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items owed by the Grantee is and remains the Grantee’s responsibility and that the Company (i) makes no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Award, including the grant or vesting of the Units or the subsequent sale of shares of Stock acquired upon vesting; and (ii) does not commit to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Award to reduce or eliminate the Grantee’s liability for Tax-Related Items.

(b)    Prior to vesting of the Units, the Grantee shall pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company to satisfy all withholding obligations of the Company. In this regard, the Grantee authorizes the Company to withhold all applicable Tax-Related Items legally payable by the Grantee from the Grantee’s wages or other cash compensation paid to the Grantee by the Company or from proceeds of the sale of the shares of Stock. Alternatively, or in addition, to the extent permissible under applicable law, the Company may (i) sell or arrange for the sale of shares of Stock that the Grantee acquires to meet the withholding obligation for Tax-Related Items, and/or (ii) withhold in shares of Stock, provided that the Company only withholds the amount of shares of Stock necessary to satisfy no more than the maximum withholding amount. Finally, the Grantee shall pay to the Company any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company may be required to withhold as a result of the Grantee’s participation in the Plan that

cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to issue and deliver shares of Stock in payment of any earned and vested Units if the Grantee fails to comply with the Grantee’s obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items as described in this Section 4.

(a)    Applicability. The provisions of this Section 7 apply to Awards made to employees of the Company, and not Awards made to Non-Employee Directors.

(b)    Solicitation of Employees. The Grantee agrees that, both while in Service and for one year after Separation from Service, the Grantee will not solicit or attempt to solicit any employee of the Company to leave his or her employment or to violate the terms of any agreement or understanding that employee may have with the Company. The foregoing obligations apply to both the Grantee’s direct and indirect actions, and apply to actions intended to benefit the Grantee or any other person, business or entity.

(c)          Solicitation of Customers. The Grantee agrees that, for one year after Separation from Service, the Grantee will not participate in any solicitation of any customer or prospective customer of the Company concerning any business that:

(i)involves the same programs or projects for that customer in which the Grantee was personally and substantially involved during the 12 months prior to Separation from Service; or

(ii)has been, at any time during the 12 months prior to Separation from Service, the subject of any capture effort, bid, offer or proposal activity by the Company in respect of that customer or prospective customer, or any negotiations or discussions about the possible performance of services by the

Company to that customer or potential customer, in which the Grantee was personally and substantially involved.

In the case of a governmental, regulatory or administrative agency, commission, department or other governmental authority, the customer or prospective customer will be determined by reference to the specific program offices or activities for which the Company provides (or may reasonably provide) goods or services.

(d)    Non-Competition. To the extent allowed by and consistent with applicable law, the Grantee agrees that, for one year after Separation from Service, the Grantee will not, directly or indirectly, on behalf of the Grantee or any other person or entity other than the Company, perform on any program, or provide oversight on any program, product, or service: (i) that would cause the Grantee to use, disclose, or access confidential or proprietary Company information; and/or (ii) with which Recipient was personally and substantially involved during the 12 months prior to Separation from Service, or that is competitive with any such program, product, or service; and/or (iii) that is associated with any program, product or service that was the subject of any capture effort, bid, offer or proposal activity by the Company in which the Grantee was personally and substantially involved during the 12 months prior to Separation from Service.

(e)    Remedies. The Grantee acknowledges and agrees that a breach of any of the promises or agreements contained in this Section 7 will result in immediate, irreparable and continuing damage to the Company for which there is no adequate remedy at law, and the Company will be entitled to injunctive relief, a decree for specific performance, and other relief as may be proper, including money damages.

(a)    Notices. Any notice which either party hereto may be required or permitted to give to the other shall be in writing and may be delivered personally, by intraoffice mail, by fax, by electronic mail or other electronic means, or via a postal service, postage prepaid, to such electronic mail or postal address and directed to such person as the Company may notify the Grantee from time to time; and to the Grantee at the Grantee’s electronic mail or postal address as shown on the records of the Company from time to time, or at such other electronic mail or postal address as the Grantee, by notice to the Company, may designate in writing from time to time.

(b)    Waiver. The waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach.

This Agreement may be amended at any time by the Committee, provided that no amendment may, without the consent of the Grantee, materially impair the Grantee’s rights with respect to the Award. The Committee shall have full authority and discretion, subject only to the terms of the Plan, to decide all matters relating to the administration or interpretation of the Plan, the Award, and the Agreement, and all such action by the Committee shall be final, conclusive, and binding upon the Company and the Grantee.
