(TSR PERFORMANCE)

MagnaChip Semiconductor Corporation (the “Company”) has granted to the Participant named in the Notice of Grant of TSR Restricted Stock Units (the “Grant Notice”) to which this Restricted Stock Units Agreement (this “Agreement”) is attached an Award consisting of Restricted Stock Units subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Grant Notice and this Agreement. The Participant shall be entitled to Dividend Equivalent Rights with respect to the Award.

The Award has been granted pursuant to and shall in all respects be subject to the terms conditions of the MagnaChip Semiconductor Corporation 2011 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), as amended from time to time, the provisions of which are incorporated herein by reference. By signing the Grant Notice, the Participant: (a) acknowledges receipt of and represents that the Participant has read and is familiar with the Grant Notice, this Agreement, the Plan and a prospectus for the Plan prepared in connection with the registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission of the shares issuable pursuant to the Award (the “Plan Prospectus”), (b) accepts the Award subject to all of the terms and conditions of the Grant Notice, this Agreement and the Plan and (c) agrees to accept as binding, conclusive and final all decisions or interpretations of the Committee upon any questions arising under the Grant Notice, this Agreement or the Plan.

2.     CERTAIN CONDITIONS OF THE AWARD.

2.1    Compliance with Local Law. The Participant agrees that the Participant will not acquire shares pursuant to the Award, or transfer, assign, sell or otherwise deal in such shares except in compliance with Local Law.

2.2    Employment Conditions. By accepting the Award, the Participant acknowledges and agrees that:

(a)    Any notice period mandated under Local Law shall not be treated as Service for the purpose of determining the vesting of the Award; and the Participant’s right to receive shares in settlement of the Award after termination of Service, if any, will be measured by the date of termination of the Participant’s active Service and will not be extended by any notice period mandated under Local Law. Subject to the foregoing and the provisions of the Plan, the Company, in its sole discretion, shall determine whether the Participant’s Service has terminated and the effective date of such termination.

(b)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Grant Notice, if the Participant is terminated without Cause or resigns for Good Reason (each as defined in the Participant’s employment agreement with the Company dated [        ], 201[    ]) prior to the settlement of the Award, the Participant will remain eligible to vest (determined in accordance with the terms set forth in the Grant Notice) in a pro rata portion of the Restricted Stock Units on the Certification Date, determined by multiplying the total number of Restricted Stock Units remaining outstanding and unvested immediately prior to such termination by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full months that the Participant provided continuous Service during the Performance Period, and the denominator of which is the number of full months in the full Performance Period. All Restricted Stock Units in excess of the pro rata portion thereof that remains outstanding in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence shall immediately be forfeited and cancelled, and the Participant shall not be entitled to any compensation or other amount with respect thereto. If a Change in Control occurs upon or following such termination and prior to the end of the Performance Period, then the Restricted Stock Units remaining outstanding and unvested immediately prior to the Change in Control (after application of the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.2(b)) shall vest and become non-forfeitable at the target level of achievement (determined in accordance with the Grant Notice) immediately upon the occurrence of the Change in Control and the date that the Change in Control is consummated shall be the Settlement Date for purposes of Section 7 hereof.

(c)     The vesting of the Award shall cease upon, and no Units shall vest following, the Participant’s termination of Service for any reason other than as set forth in Section 2.2 (b). Further, all unvested Units will be forfeited and cancelled and the Participant will not be entitled to any compensation or other amount with respect thereto.

(d)     The Plan is established voluntarily by the Company. It is discretionary in nature and it may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time, unless otherwise provided in the Plan and this Agreement.

 

2

(e)    The grant of the Award is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of Awards, or benefits in lieu of Awards, even if Awards have been granted repeatedly in the past.

(f)    All decisions with respect to future Award grants, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company.

(g)    The Participant’s participation in the Plan shall not create a right to further Service with any Participating Company and shall not interfere with the ability of any Participating Company to terminate the Participant’s Service at any time, with or without cause, insofar as permitted under Local Law.

(h)    The Participant is voluntarily participating in the Plan.

(i)    The Award and resulting shares, if any, are an extraordinary item that does not constitute compensation of any kind for Service of any kind rendered to any Participating Company, and which is outside the scope of the Participant’s employment contract, if any.

(j)    The Award is not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purpose, including, but not limited to, calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, end-of-service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement benefits or similar payments.

(k)    In the event that the Participant is not an employee of the Company, the Award grant will not be interpreted to form an employment contract or relationship with the Company; and furthermore the Award grant will not be interpreted to form an employment contract with any other Participating Company.

(l)    The future value of the underlying shares is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty. If the Participant obtains shares upon settlement of the Award, the value of those shares may increase or decrease.

(m)    In consideration of the grant of an Award, no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages arises from termination of the Award or diminution in value of the Award or shares acquired upon settlement of the Award resulting from termination of the Participant’s Service (for any reason whether or not in breach of Local Law) and the Participant irrevocably releases the Company and each other Participating Company from any such claim that may arise. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen then, by signing this Agreement, the Participant shall be deemed irrevocably to have waived the Participant’s entitlement to pursue such a claim.

2.3    Data Privacy Consent.

(a) THE PARTICIPANT HEREBY EXPLICITLY AND UNAMBIGUOUSLY CONSENTS TO THE COLLECTION, USE AND TRANSFER, IN ELECTRONIC OR OTHER FORM, OF THE PARTICIPANT’S PERSONAL DATA AS DESCRIBED IN THIS DOCUMENT BY AND AMONG THE MEMBERS OF THE PARTICIPATING COMPANY GROUP FOR THE EXCLUSIVE PURPOSE OF IMPLEMENTING, ADMINISTERING AND MANAGING THE PARTICIPANT’S PARTICIPATION IN THE PLAN.

having an interest in the Award. Any Officer shall have the authority to act on behalf of the Company with respect to any matter, right, obligation, or election which is the responsibility of or which is allocated to the Company herein, provided the Officer has actual authority with respect to such matter, right, obligation, or election.

4.     THE AWARD.

4.1    Grant of Units. The Company hereby grants to the Participant, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Total Number of Restricted Stock Units set forth in the Grant Notice, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4.3 and Section 10. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Grant Notice, this Agreement and the Plan, each Unit represents a right to receive on a date determined in accordance with the Grant Notice and this Agreement one (1) share of Stock.

4.2    No Monetary Payment Required. The Participant is not required to make any monetary payment (other than applicable tax withholding, if any) as a condition to receiving the Units or shares of Stock issued upon settlement of the Units, the consideration for which shall be past services actually rendered or future services to be rendered to a Participating Company or for its benefit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if required by applicable law, the Participant shall furnish consideration in the form of cash or past services rendered to a Participating Company or for its benefit having a value not less than the par value of the shares of Stock issued upon settlement of the Units.

4.3    Dividend Equivalent Units. On the date that the Company pays a cash dividend to holders of Stock generally, the Participant shall be credited with a number of additional whole Dividend Equivalent Units determined by dividing (a) the product of (i) the dollar amount of the cash dividend paid per share of Stock on such date and (ii) the total number of Restricted Stock Units and Dividend Equivalent Units previously credited to the Participant pursuant to the Award and which have not been settled or forfeited pursuant to the Company Reacquisition Right (as defined below) as of such date, by (b) the Fair Market Value per share of Stock on such date. Any resulting fractional Dividend Equivalent Unit shall be rounded to the nearest whole number. Such additional Dividend Equivalent Units shall be subject to the same terms and conditions and shall be settled or forfeited in the same manner and at the same time as the Restricted Stock Units originally subject to the Award with respect to which they have been credited.

5.     VESTING OF UNITS.

Units acquired pursuant to this Agreement shall become Vested Units as provided in the Grant Notice. Dividend Equivalent Units shall become Vested Units at the same time as the Restricted Stock Units originally subject to the Award with respect to which they have been credited.

6.     COMPANY REACQUISITION RIGHT.

6.1 Grant of Company Reacquisition Right. In the event that the Participant’s Service with a Participating Company is terminated by the Participating Company for Cause, insofar as permitted under Local Law the Participant shall forfeit and the Company shall automatically reacquire all Units (whether vested or unvested), and the Participant shall not be entitled to any payment therefor (the “Company Reacquisition Right”).

7.     SETTLEMENT OF THE AWARD.

7.1    Issuance of Shares of Stock. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.3 below, as soon as reasonably practicable following the date upon which Units vest (such date, the “Settlement Date”) (but in no event later than March 15th of the calendar year following the calendar year in which such vesting occurs), the Company shall issue to the Participant with respect to each such Vested Unit one (1) share of Stock. Shares of Stock issued in settlement of Units shall not be subject to any restriction on transfer other than any such restriction as may be required pursuant to Section 7.3, Section 7 or the Company’s Trading Compliance Policy or any stock ownership guidelines or holding period guidelines established by the Board from time to time.

7.2    Beneficial Ownership of Shares; Certificate Registration. The Participant hereby authorizes the Company, in its sole discretion, to deposit any or all shares acquired by the Participant pursuant to the settlement of the Award with the Company’s transfer agent, including any successor transfer agent, to be held in book entry form, or to deposit such shares for the benefit of the Participant with any broker with which the Participant has an account relationship of which the Company has notice. Except as provided by the foregoing, a certificate for the shares acquired by the Participant shall be registered in the name of the Participant, or, if applicable, in the names of the heirs of the Participant.

7.3    Restrictions on Grant of the Award and Issuance of Shares. The grant of the Award and issuance of shares of Stock upon settlement of the Award shall be subject to compliance with all applicable requirements of United States federal, state law and Local Law with respect to such securities. No shares of Stock may be issued hereunder if the issuance of such shares would constitute a violation of any applicable United States federal, state, or Local Law, or other law or regulations or the requirements of any stock exchange or market system upon which the Stock may then be listed. The inability of the Company to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority, if any, or the impracticality of doing so, deemed by the Company’s legal counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance of any shares subject to the Award shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue such shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained. As a condition to the settlement of the Award, the Company may require the Participant to satisfy any qualifications that may be necessary or appropriate, to evidence compliance with any applicable law or regulation and to make any representation or warranty with respect thereto as may be requested by the Company.

7.4    Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue fractional shares upon the settlement of the Award.

8.     TAX WITHHOLDING.

Regardless of any action the Company or the Participant’s employer (the “Employer”) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or

 

6

other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), the Participant acknowledges and agrees that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by the Participant is and remains the Participant’s responsibility and that the Company and or the Employer (i) make no representations nor undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of this grant of Units, including the grant and vesting of Units, subsequent delivery of shares and/or cash related to such Units or the subsequent sale of any shares acquired pursuant to such Units and receipt of any dividend equivalent payments (if any) and (ii) do not commit to structure the terms or any aspect of this grant of Units to reduce or eliminate the Participant’s liability for Tax-Related Items. The Participant shall pay the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold as a result of the Participant’s participation in the Plan or the Participant’s receipt of Units that cannot be satisfied by the means described below. Further, if the Participant is subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction, the Participant acknowledges that the Company and/or Employer (or former Employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction. The Company may refuse to deliver the shares if the Participant fails to comply with the Participant’s obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.

Prior to the taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, the Participant shall pay, or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company or to the Employer (in their sole discretion) to satisfy all Tax-Related Items; provided that the arrangement in clause (1) of the following sentence shall be deemed to be satisfactory to the extent that it alone, or combined with any other arrangement satisfactory to the Board, satisfies the Participant’s obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items. In this regard, the Participant authorizes the Company or Employer to withhold all applicable Tax-Related Items legally payable by the Participant by (1) withholding a number of Shares otherwise deliverable equal to the Retained Share Amount (as defined below), (2) withholding from the Participant’s wages or other cash compensation paid by the Company and/or Employer; and/or (3) withholding from proceeds of the sale of shares acquired upon settlement of the Units, either through a voluntary sale or through a sale arranged by the Company (on the Participant’s behalf pursuant to this authorization), to the extent permitted by the Administrator. The “Retained Share Amount” shall mean a number of shares equal to the quotient of the statutory tax withholding obligation of the Company triggered by the Units on the relevant date, divided by the Fair Market Value of one share on the relevant date or as otherwise provided in the Plan. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding a number of shares as described herein, the Participant understands that he or she will be deemed to have been issued the full number of shares subject to the settled Units, notwithstanding that a number of shares are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of the settlement of the Units.

The Participant acknowledges and understands that the Participant should consult a tax adviser regarding the Participant’s tax obligations prior to such settlement or disposition.

9.     EFFECT OF CHANGE IN CONTROL.

In the event of a Change in Control during the Performance Period, subject to the Participant’s continued Service on the date that such Change in Control is consummated, the Target Award (and any Dividend Equivalent Units associated therewith) will vest and the date

 

7

that the Change in Control is consummated will be treated as the Settlement Date for purposes of Section 7 hereof. No Restricted Stock Units in excess of the Target Award shall vest pursuant to this Agreement and all Restricted Stock Units in excess of the Target Award shall immediately be forfeited and cancelled, and the Participant shall not be entitled to any compensation or other amount with respect thereto.

10.    ADJUSTMENTS FOR CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE.

Subject to any required action by the stockholders of the Company, in the event of any change in the Stock effected without receipt of consideration by the Company, whether through merger, consolidation, reorganization, reincorporation, recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, split-up, split-off, spin-off, combination of shares, exchange of shares, or similar change in the capital structure of the Company, or in the event of payment of a dividend or distribution to the stockholders of the Company in a form other than Stock (other than regular, periodic cash dividends paid on Stock pursuant to the Company’s dividend policy) that has a material effect on the Fair Market Value of shares of Stock, appropriate and proportionate adjustments shall be made in the number of Units subject to the Award and/or the number and kind of shares or other property to be issued in settlement of the Award, in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the Participant’s rights under the Award. For purposes of the foregoing, conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be treated as “effected without receipt of consideration by the Company.” Any and all new, substituted or additional securities or other property (other than regular, periodic cash dividends paid on Stock pursuant to the Company’s dividend policy, which shall be treated in accordance with Section 4.3) to which the Participant is entitled by reason of ownership of Units acquired pursuant to this Award will be immediately subject to the provisions of this Award on the same basis as all Units originally acquired hereunder. Any fractional Unit or share resulting from an adjustment pursuant to this Section shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number. Such adjustments shall be determined by the Committee, and its determination shall be final, binding and conclusive.

11.    RIGHTS AS A STOCKHOLDER, DIRECTOR, EMPLOYEE OR CONSULTANT.

The Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares which may be issued in settlement of this Award until the date of the issuance of such shares (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company). No adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date the shares are issued, except as provided in Section 4.3 and Section 10. If the Participant is an Employee, the Participant understands and acknowledges that, except as otherwise provided in a separate, written employment agreement between a Participating Company and the Participant, the Participant’s employment is “at will” and is for no specified term unless otherwise required under applicable law. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue in the Service of a Participating Company or interfere in any way with any right of the Participating Company Group to terminate the Participant’s Service at any time.

12.    LEGENDS.

The Company may at any time place legends referencing any applicable United States federal, state or non-U.S. securities law, including Local Law, restrictions on all certificates representing shares of stock issued pursuant to this Agreement. The Participant shall, at the request of the Company, promptly present to the Company any and all certificates representing shares acquired pursuant to this Award in the possession of the Participant in order to carry out the provisions of this Section.

13.    MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.

13.1 Termination or Amendment. The Committee may terminate or amend the Plan or this Agreement at any time; provided, however, that except as provided in Section 9 in connection with a Change in Control, no such termination or amendment may adversely affect the Participant’s rights under this Agreement without the consent of the Participant unless such termination or amendment is necessary to comply with applicable law or government regulation. No amendment or addition to this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing.

13.2 Nontransferability of the Award. Prior to the issuance of shares of Stock on the applicable Settlement Date, neither this Award nor any Units subject to this Award shall be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, exchange, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, or garnishment by creditors of the Participant or the Participant’s beneficiary, except transfer by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. All rights with respect to the Award shall be exercisable during the Participant’s lifetime only by the Participant or the Participant’s guardian or legal representative.

This Appendix also includes information regarding exchange control and certain other issues of which the Participant should be aware with respect to the 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 February 2016. Such laws are often complex and change frequently.

As a result, the Company is not in a position to assure the Participant of any particular result.
