Form of RSU Grant Notice and Global RSU Agreement V-4004

Unless otherwise defined herein, the terms used in this Notice of Grant of Restricted Stock Units (“Grant Notice”) shall have the same meanings as those defined in the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”).

You have been granted an Award of Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) subject to and in accordance with the express terms and conditions of the Plan and the Restricted Stock Unit Agreement, including the appendix for your country, if any (“Appendix” and together with the Restricted Stock Unit Agreement, the “Agreement”) attached hereto as Exhibit A. The Plan and Agreement are incorporated herein in their entirety. Each RSU is equivalent to the right to receive one share of Common Stock of the Company (“Share”) for purposes of determining the number of Shares subject to this Award. No Shares will be issued until the vesting conditions of the Award described below are satisfied and the restrictions lapse, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and the Agreement. This Award does not entitle Grantee to any stockholder rights with respect to the underlying Shares until the vesting conditions of the Award described below are satisfied, the restrictions lapse and Shares are issued to him/her. Additional terms of this Award are as follows:

Vesting Schedule. The RSUs vest and all restrictions lapse according to the following schedule: %VEST_SCHEDULE%. All vesting is contingent upon the Grantee’s continual status as a Service Provider measured from the Grant Date through the applicable Vest Date.

Termination Period. This Award automatically terminates and Grantee’s rights are forfeited with respect to any portion of the RSUs unvested on the date Grantee ceases to be a Service Provider or in the event that Grantee has not accepted this Grant in accordance with Company procedures 31 days or more prior to its Vest Begin Date. In no event shall this Award vest later than the Vesting Schedule outlined above.

Binding Agreements. By signature of Company's representative below, and Grantee’s acceptance of this Grant in accordance with Company procedures, the parties agree that this Grant Notice, the Agreement, and the Plan constitute Grantee’s entire agreement with respect to this Award and agree to be bound by the terms therein. Grantee hereby agrees to accept as binding, conclusive and final all decisions or interpretations of the Administrator upon any questions relating to the Plan, the Agreement, and/or this Award. This Award may be modified by the Company, but in accordance with Section 21(c) of the Plan, it may not be modified adversely to Grantee’s interest except by means of a writing signed by the Company and Grantee. The Company will administer the Plan from the United States of America. The internal laws of the State of Arizona, United States of America, but not its choice of law principles, will govern this Award.

1.Grant of Restricted Stock Units. Microchip Technology Incorporated (the “Company”) hereby grants to the Grantee named in the Notice of Grant of Restricted Stock Units (“Grant Notice”) an Award of Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”), as set forth in the Grant Notice and subject to the terms and conditions in this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement, including any appendix for the Grantee’s country (the “Appendix” and together with the Restricted Stock Unit Agreement, the “Agreement”) and the Company’s 2004 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). Unless otherwise defined herein, the terms defined in the Plan shall have the same defined meanings in this Agreement.

2.Company's Obligation. Each RSU represents the right to receive a Share in accordance with the Vesting Period in the Grant Notice. Unless and until the RSUs vest, the Grantee will have no right to receive Shares underlying such RSUs. Prior to actual distribution of Shares pursuant to any vested RSUs, such RSUs will represent an unsecured obligation of the Company, payable (if at all) only from the general assets of the Company.

3.Vesting Schedule. Subject to paragraph 4 of this Agreement, the RSUs awarded by this Agreement will vest and all restrictions lapse according to the vesting schedule specified in the Grant Notice.

4.Forfeiture upon Termination as a Service Provider. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement or the Grant Notice, if the Grantee terminates service as a Service Provider for any or no reason prior to vesting, the unvested RSUs awarded by this Agreement will thereupon be forfeited (as determined in accordance with paragraph 10(j) below) at no cost to the Company.

5.Payment after Vesting. Any RSUs that vest in accordance with paragraph 3 of this Agreement will be paid to the Grantee (or in the event of the Grantee's death, to his or her estate) in Shares (unless otherwise determined by the Administrator and stated in the Appendix), upon satisfaction, as determined by the Company, of any Tax-Related Items as set forth in paragraph 9 of this Agreement. The Shares will be issued to the Grantee as soon as practicable after the Vesting Date, but in any event, within the period ending on the later to occur of the date that is two and a half (2 ½) months from the end of (i) the Grantee’s tax year that includes the applicable Vesting Date, or (ii) the Company’s tax year that includes the applicable vesting date.

6.Payments after Death. Any distribution or delivery to be made to the Grantee under this Agreement will, if the Grantee is then deceased, be made to the administrator or executor of the Grantee’s estate. Any such administrator or executor must furnish the Company with (a) written notice of his or her status as transferee, and (b) evidence satisfactory to the Company to establish the validity of the transfer and compliance with any laws or regulations pertaining to said transfer.

7.Grant is Not Transferable. Except to the limited extent provided in paragraph 6 of this Agreement, RSUs may not be transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated in any way (whether by operation of law or otherwise) and will not be subject to sale under execution, attachment or similar process. Upon any attempt to transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of the RSUs, or any right or privilege

conferred hereby, or upon any attempted sale under any execution, attachment or similar process, the RSUs grant and the rights and privileges conferred hereby immediately will become null and void.

8.Rights as Stockholder. Neither the Grantee nor any person claiming under or through the Grantee will have any of the rights or privileges of a stockholder of the Company in respect of any Shares deliverable hereunder unless and until the Grantee’s rights with respect to the RSUs have become vested and certificates representing such Shares have been issued, recorded on the records of the Company or its transfer agents or registrars, and delivered to the Grantee or Grantee’s broker or the Shares have been electronically transferred to Grantee’s account.

9.Tax Obligations. The Grantee acknowledges that regardless of any action taken by the Company or, if different, the Grantee’s employer (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 the Grantee’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to the Grantee (“Tax-Related Items”), is and remains the Grantee’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the Employer. The Grantee 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 RSUs, including, but not limited to, the grant or vesting of the RSUs, the issuance of Shares on the relevant Vesting Date, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired at vesting of the RSUs, if any, and the receipt of any dividends; and (2) do not commit and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the RSUs to reduce or eliminate the Grantee’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if the Grantee becomes subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction between the Grant Date and the date of any relevant taxable, tax and/or social security contribution withholding event, as applicable, the Grantee 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.

Prior to any relevant taxable, tax and/or social security contribution withholding event, as applicable, the Grantee shall pay or make appropriate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, by the Grantee’s acceptance of the RSUs, the Grantee authorizes and directs the Company and/or the Employer and any brokerage firm determined acceptable by the Company, at their sole discretion, to satisfy any applicable withholding obligations with respect to Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following: (i) withholding from the Grantee’s wages or other cash compensation paid to the Grantee by the Company and/or the Employer; or (ii) withholding from proceeds of the sale of Shares acquired upon vesting of the RSUs, either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arrangement by the Company (on the Grantee’s behalf pursuant to this authorization); or (iii) withholding in Shares to be issued upon vesting of the RSUs; or (iv) by requiring direct payment from the Grantee in cash (or its equivalent).

Depending on the withholding method, the Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding amounts or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum applicable rates, in which case the Grantee will receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash and will have no entitlement to the Stock equivalent. If the Grantee’s and/or the Company’s withholding obligations for Tax-Related Items are satisfied as described in (iii) of this paragraph, the Company will endeavor to sell only the number of Shares required to satisfy the Grantee’s and/or the Company’s withholding obligations for Tax-Related Items; however, the Grantee agrees that the Company may sell more Shares than necessary to satisfy the Tax-Related Items. Further, the Grantee will be deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject to the vested RSUs, notwithstanding that a number of Shares is held back solely for purposes of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of any aspect of the Grantee’s

participation in the Plan. The Grantee hereby consents to any action reasonably taken by the Company to satisfy his or her obligations for Tax-Related Items.

10.Nature of Grant. In accepting the RSUs, the Grantee expressly acknowledges, understands and agrees to the following:

(a)    the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, is discretionary in nature, and may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time;

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

(c)    all decisions with respect to future RSUs or other awards, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company;

(d)    the Award of RSUs and the Grantee’s participation in the Plan shall not create a right to employment or be interpreted as forming an employment or service relationship and shall not interfere with the ability of the Company and/or the Employer to terminate the Grantee’s status as a Service Provider, if any;

(e)    the Grantee is voluntarily participating in the Plan;

(f)    the RSUs and the Shares subject to the RSUs, and the income from and value of same, are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation;

(g)    the RSUs and the Shares subject to the RSUs, and the income from and value of same, are not part of normal or expected salary or compensation for any purposes, including, without limitation, calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, end-of-service payments, vacation, bonuses, long-term service awards, indemnification, pension or retirement or welfare benefits, or any other payments, benefits or rights of any kind, and in no event should be considered as compensation for, or relating in any way to, past services for the Company, the Employer or any Subsidiary;

(h)    the future value of the underlying Shares is unknown, indeterminable and cannot be predicted with certainty;

(i)    no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from the forfeiture of the RSUs resulting from termination of the Grantee’s as a Service Provider (for any reason whatsoever, whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of employment or other laws in the jurisdiction where the Grantee is employed or otherwise rendering services, or the terms of the Grantee’s employment or service agreement, if any), and in consideration of the Award of the RSUs to which the Grantee is otherwise not entitled, the Grantee agrees not to institute any claim against the Company or the Employer;

(j)    for purposes of the Award of RSUs, the Grantee’s status as a Service Provider will be considered terminated as of the date the Grantee is no longer providing services to the Company or any Parent or

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 the Grantee is employed or rendering services or the terms of the Grantee’s employment or service agreement, if any), and will not be extended by any notice period (e.g., the Grantee’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 the Grantee is employed or rendering services or the terms of the Grantee’s employment or service agreement, if any). The Administrator shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when the Grantee is no longer actively providing services for purposes of the RSUs (including whether the Grantee may still be considered to be providing services while on a leave of absence).

(k)    unless otherwise agreed with the Company, the RSUs and the Shares subject to the RSUs, and the income from and value of same, are not granted in consideration for, or in connection with the service the Grantee may provide as a director of a Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company; and

(l)    neither the Company, the Employer nor any Parent or Subsidiary shall be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between the Grantee’s local currency and the U.S. Dollar that may affect the value of the RSUs or any amounts due to the Grantee pursuant to the settlement of the RSUs or the subsequent sale of Shares acquired upon settlement.

11.No Advice Regarding Grant. The Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding the Grantee’s participation in the Plan, or the Grantee’s acquisition or sale of the underlying Shares. The Grantee understands and agrees that he or she should advised to consult with his or her own personal tax, legal, and financial advisors regarding his or her participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan.

(i)    The Grantee understands that the Company, Employer and any other Parent, or Subsidiary may hold certain personal information about the Grantee, including, but not limited to, the Grantee’s name, home address, email address and telephone number, date of birth, Company identification number (used in the Company’s stock database), social insurance number, passport or other identification number, salary, date of hire and employment status, nationality, job title, any Shares or directorships held in the Company, details of all purchase rights, stock options, RSUs or any other entitlement to Company Shares awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in the Grantee’s favor (“Data”), for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Plan.

(ii)    The Grantee understands and agrees that Data may be transferred to E*Trade or any other broker or stock plan service provider that may be designated by the Company and any other third parties assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan, that these recipients may be located in the Grantee’s country or elsewhere, including in the United States, and that that the Grantee’s country may have different data privacy laws and protections than my country; provided however, that the Grantee’s Data is not transferred in instances where applicable law expressly prohibits the Grantee from consenting to such transfer, or makes it unlawful to require the Grantee’s consent to such transfer as a condition of participation. The

(iii)    The Grantee understands that he or she may request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Data by contacting his or her local human resources representative. The Grantee authorizes such recipients to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the purposes of implementing, administering and managing the Grantee’s participation in the Plan, including any requisite transfer of such Data as may be required to E*Trade or any other broker or other third party with whom the Grantee may elect to deposit any Shares acquired upon exercise or vesting, as applicable, of purchase rights, stock options, RSUs or other awards granted to the Grantee by the Company.

(iv)    The Grantee understands that Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage the Grantee’s participation in the Plan and that such Data will be protected against unauthorized or unlawful processing and against accidental loss or destruction. The Grantee understands that the Grantee may, at any time, view Data, request additional information about the storage and processing of Data, require any necessary amendments to Data or refuse or withdraw the consents herein, in any case without cost, by contacting the Microchip Human Resources Department in Chandler, Arizona, U.S.A. in writing. The Grantee understands, however, that refusing or withdrawing the Grantee’s consent may affect the Grantee’s ability to exercise or realize benefits from purchase rights, stock options, restricted stock units or any other awards the Grantee may receive under the Plan, to satisfy any applicable taxes due in connection with the Grantee’s participation in the Plan or to otherwise participate in the Plan. The Grantee further understands that by refusing or withdrawing his or her consent, the Grantee will be unable to use his or her E*Trade account to view the status of the Grantee’s awards or to use the modeling features. For more information on the consequences of the Grantee’s refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, the Grantee understands that the Grantee may contact his or her local human resources representative.

(v)    Finally, the Grantee acknowledges and agrees that the Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related to any awards granted or Shares acquired under the Plan or participation in the Plan or future awards that may be awarded under the Plan by electronic means or request that the Grantee consent to participate in the Plan and agree to the collection, use and transfer of the Grantee’s Data in connection with the Plan by electronic means, including through the use of click-through electronic acceptance procedures. The Grantee hereby consents to receive such documents by electronic delivery and agrees to participate in the Plan through any on-line or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or another third party designated by the Company. The Grantee hereby specifically acknowledges and agrees that his or her acceptance of any documents or agreements provided under the Plan by means of a click-through acceptance procedure will constitute a valid and legally binding acceptance on the Grantee’s part of all terms and conditions contained in such documents or agreements.    

13.Language. If the Grantee receives this Agreement or any other document related to the Plan translated into a language other than English and if the meaning of the translated version differs from the English version, the English version shall control.

15.Additional Conditions to Issuance of Stock. If at any time the Company will determine, in its discretion, that the listing, registration or qualification of the Shares upon any securities exchange or under any state or federal law, or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory authority is necessary or desirable as a condition to the issuance of Shares to the Grantee (or his or her estate), such issuance will not occur unless and until such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval will have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Company. The Company will make all reasonable efforts to meet the requirements of any such state or federal law or securities exchange and to obtain any such consent or approval of any such governmental authority.

The Administrator has the power to interpret the Plan, the Grant Notice and this Agreement and to adopt such rules for the administration, interpretation and application thereof as are consistent therewith and to interpret or revoke any such rules (including, but not limited to, the determination of whether or not any RSUs have vested). All actions taken and all interpretations and determinations made by the Administrator in good faith will be final and binding upon Grantee, the Company and all other interested persons. No member of the Administrator will be personally liable for any action, determination or interpretation made in good faith with respect to the Plan, the Grant Notice or this Agreement.

17.Notice Requirement. Where there is a legal requirement for any notice or document to be sent to any person by any other person, it shall be considered sent if an electronic transmission of the relevant information is sent in a form previously determined as being acceptable to the Administrator. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrator may dispense with the requirement to tender a certificate on the issuance of Shares under an RSU Award where the Administrator authorizes any system permitting electronic notification.

18.Address for Notices. Any notice to be given to the Company under the terms of this Agreement will be addressed to the Company at 2355 West Chandler Boulevard, Chandler AZ 85224, U.S.A. Attn: Stock Administration, or at such other address as the Company may hereafter designate in writing or electronically.

19.Electronic Delivery and Acceptance. The Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related to current or future participation in the Plan by electronic means. The Grantee hereby consents to receive such documents by electronic delivery and agrees to participate in the Plan through an online or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or a third party designated by the Company.

20.Appendix. Notwithstanding any provisions in this Agreement, the RSUs shall be subject to any special terms and conditions for the Grantee’s country set forth in the Appendix. Moreover, if the Grantee relocates to one of the countries included in the Appendix, the special terms and conditions for such country shall apply to the Grantee, to the extent that the Company determines that the application of such terms and conditions is necessary or advisable in order to comply with local law or facilitate the administration of the Plan. The Appendix constitutes part of this Agreement.

21.Imposition of Other Requirements. The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on the Grantee’s participation in the Plan, on the RSUs and on any Shares acquired under this Award, to the extent that the Company determines it is necessary or advisable to comply with local law or facilitate the administration of the Plan, and to require the Grantee to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing.

22.Entire Agreement; Governing Law. The Plan and Grant Notice are incorporated herein by reference. The Plan, Grant Notice and this Agreement constitute the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede in their entirety all prior undertakings and agreements of the Company and Grantee with respect to the subject matter hereof, and may not be modified adversely to the Grantee’s interest except by means of a writing signed by the Company and Grantee. The Company will administer the Plan from the United States of America. This Agreement, the Grant Notice and all Awards are governed by the internal substantive laws, but not the choice of law principles, of the State of Arizona, United States of America.

24.Waiver. The Grantee acknowledges that a waiver by the Company of breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement, or of any subsequent breach by the Grantee or any other grantee.

25.Insider Trading/Market Abuse Laws. The Grantee acknowledges that, depending on his or her country, the Grantee may be subject to insider trading restrictions and/or market abuse laws, which may affect his or her ability to acquire or sell Shares or rights to Shares (e.g., RSUs) under the Plan during such times as the Grantee is considered to have “inside information” regarding the Company (as defined by the laws in the Grantee’s country). Any restrictions under these laws or regulations are separate from and in addition to any restrictions that may be imposed under the Company’s insider trading policy. The Grantee acknowledges that it is his or her responsibility to comply with any applicable restrictions, including those imposed under the Company’s insider trading policy, and the Grantee is advised to consult with his or her own personal legal and financial advisors on this matter before taking any action related to the Plan.

26.Foreign Asset / Account Reporting Requirements, Exchange Controls. The Grantee acknowledges that his or her country may have certain foreign asset and/or account reporting requirements and exchange controls which may affect his or her ability to acquire or hold Shares under the Plan or cash received from participating in the Plan (including from any dividends received or sale proceeds arising from the sale of Shares) in a brokerage or bank account outside his or her country. The Grantee understands that he or she may be required to report such accounts, assets or transactions to the tax or other authorities in his or her country. The Grantee also may be required to repatriate sale proceeds or other funds received as a result of the Grantee’s participation in the Plan to his or her country through a designated bank or broker and/or within a certain time after receipt. In addition, the Grantee may be subject to tax payment and/or reporting obligations in connection with any income realized under the Plan and/or from the sale of Shares. The Grantee acknowledges that it is his or her responsibility to be compliant with all such requirements, and that the Grantee should consult his or her personal legal and tax advisors, as applicable, to ensure the Grantee’s compliance.

By the Grantee’s electronic acceptance of the Agreement, the Grantee agrees that this Award is granted under and governed by the terms and conditions of the Plan, the Grant Notice and this Agreement. The Grantee has reviewed the Plan, the Grant Notice and this Agreement in their entirety, has had an opportunity to obtain

the advice of counsel prior to executing this Agreement and fully understands all provisions of the Plan, the Grant Notice and this Agreement. The Grantee hereby agrees to accept as binding, conclusive and final all decisions or interpretations of the Administrator upon any questions relating to the Plan, the Grant Notice and this Agreement.

Certain capitalized terms used but not defined in this Appendix have the meanings set forth in the Plan and/or the Agreement.

This Appendix contains additional terms and conditions that shall be applicable to the RSUs granted to the Grantee if he or she resides and/or works in one of the countries listed below. If the Grantee is a citizen or resident (or is considered as such for local law purposes) of a country other than the country in which the Grantee is currently residing and/or working, or if the Grantee relocated to another country after the RSUs are granted, the Grantee acknowledges and agrees that the Company will, in its discretion, determine the extent to which the terms and conditions contained herein will be applicable to the Grantee.

This Appendix may also include information regarding exchange controls and certain other issues of which the Grantee should be aware with respect to participation in the Plan. The information is based on the securities, exchange control, and other laws in effect in the respective countries as of July, 2017. Such laws are often complex and change frequently. As a result, the Company strongly recommends that the Grantee not rely on the information contained herein as the only source of information relating to the consequences of his or her participation in the Plan because the information may be out of date at the time the Grantee vests in the RSUs or sells Shares acquired under the Plan.

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

RSUs Payable in Shares Only. Notwithstanding any discretion in the Plan, the RSUs will be settled in Shares only. The RSUs do not provide any right for the Grantee to receive a cash payment.

Australian Offer Document. The Grantee understands that the offering of the Plan in Australia is intended to qualify for exemption from the prospectus requirements under Australian Securities & Investments Commission ("ASIC") Class Order 14/1000 and relevant provisions of the Corporations Act 2001. Additional details are set forth in the Offer Document for the Offer of RSUs to Australian Resident Employees.

Exchange Control Information. Exchange control reporting is required for cash transactions exceeding AUD 10,000 and for international fund transfers. If an Australian bank is assisting with the transaction, the bank will file the report on behalf of the Grantee.

Exchange Control Notification. If the Grantee holds Shares or cash (including proceeds from the sale of Shares) obtained through the Plan outside of Austria, the Grantee may be required to submit reports to the Austrian National Bank. An exemption applies if the value of the Shares on any given quarter does not exceed €30,000,000 or if the value of the Shares in any given year as of December 31 does not exceed €5,000,000. If the former threshold is exceeded, quarterly obligations are imposed, whereas if the latter threshold is exceeded, annual reports must be given. The deadline for filing the annual report is January 31 of the following year and the deadline for the quarterly report is the 15th of the month following the end of the respective quarter.

A separate reporting requirement applies when the Grantee sells Shares acquired under the Plan or receives a dividend. In that case, there may be exchange control obligations if the cash proceeds are held outside of Austria. If the transaction volume of all accounts abroad exceed €10,000,000, the movement and balances of all accounts must be reported monthly, on a prescribed form (Meldungen SI-Forderungen und/oder SI-Verpflichtungen).

Foreign Asset/Account Information Reporting. If the Grantee is a Belgian resident, the Grantee is required to report any security (e.g., Shares acquired under the Plan) or bank account (including any brokerage account held by you at E*Trade Financial or other stock plan service provider as may be selected by the Company in the future) held outside Belgium on Grantee's annual income tax return. In a separate report, the Grantee must provide the National Bank of Belgium with certain details regarding such foreign accounts (including the account number, bank name and country in which such account was opened). The forms to complete this report are available on the National Bank of Belgium website. Belgian residents should consult with their personal tax advisors to determine their reporting obligations.

Stock Exchange Tax. From January 1, 2017, a stock exchange tax applies to transactions executed by a Belgian resident through a non-Belgian financial intermediary, such as a U.S. broker. The stock exchange tax will likely apply when the Shares are sold. The Grantee should consult with his personal tax advisor for additional details on his or her obligations with respect to the stock exchange tax.

Agreement for the Grantees in Belgium. Under Belgian tax law, if the Shares acquired at vesting of RSUs cannot be sold for two years from the Vesting Date, the fair market value of the Shares on the Vesting Date is deemed to be 100/120 (83 1/3%) of the actual fair market value of such shares for purposes of calculating the taxable amount. If the Grantee would like to take advantage of this favourable tax treatment, the Grantee must print, sign and return a copy of the Agreement Regarding a Two Year Lock Up Period for Shares Acquired Upon Vesting of Restricted Stock Units attached as Exhibit A to this Agreement by the deadline specified therein.

RSUs Payable in Shares Only. Notwithstanding any discretion in the Plan, the RSUs will be settled in Shares only. The RSUs do not provide any right for the Grantee to receive a cash payment.

Termination of Employment. The following supplements replaces paragraph 10(j) of the Agreement:

Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or the Agreement to the contrary, for purposes of the RSUs, the Grantee’s status as a Service Provider will be considered terminated (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 the Grantee is employed or rendering services or the terms of the Grantee’s employment or service agreement, if any), as of the date that is the earliest of (i) the date of termination as a Service Provider, (ii) the date on which the Grantee receives a notice of termination of employment, and (iii) the date on which the Grantee is no longer actively providing services to the Company or the Parent or Subsidiary, and shall not include or be extended by any period following such day during which the Grantee is in receipt of or eligible to receive any notice of termination, pay in lieu of notice of termination, severance pay or other payments or damages, where arising under statute, contract, or at common law. The Administrator shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when the Grantee is no longer actively providing services for purposes of the RSUs (including whether the Grantee may still be considered to be providing services while on a leave of absence).

Securities Law Information. The Grantee is permitted to sell Shares acquired through the Plan through the designated broker appointed under the Plan, if any, provided that the resale of such Shares takes place outside of Canada through the facilities of a stock exchange on which the Shares are listed (i.e., the NASDAQ Global Select Market).

Foreign Asset / Account Reporting. Any foreign property (including Shares and RSUs acquired under the Plan) must be reported to the Canada Revenue Agency on form T1135 (Foreign Income Verification Statement) if the total cost of the Grantee’s foreign property exceeds C$100,000 at any time in the year. Thus, if the C$100,000 cost threshold is exceeded by other foreign property held by the Grantee, the RSUs must be reported (generally at nil cost). For purposes of such reporting, Shares acquired under the Plan may be reported at their adjusted cost base (“ACB”). The ACB would normally equal the fair market value of the Shares at time of vesting, but if the Grantee owns other Shares, this ACB may have to be averaged with the ACB of the other Shares.

Authorization to Release and Transfer Necessary Personal Information. The following provision supplements paragraph 12 of the Agreement:

The Grantee hereby authorizes the Company (including any Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate) and the Company’s representatives to discuss with and obtain all relevant information from all personnel, professional or not, involved in the administration and operation of the Plan. The Grantee further authorizes the Company, any Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate and the administrator of the Plan to disclose and discuss the Plan with their advisors. The Grantee further authorizes the Company, any Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate to record and keep such information in the Grantee’s employment file.

English Language Provision. The following provision supplements paragraph 13 of the Agreement:

The parties acknowledge that it is their express wish that this Agreement, as well as all documents, notices and legal proceedings entered into, given or instituted pursuant hereto or relating directly or directly hereto, be drawn up in English.

Deposit of Shares and Distribution of Dividends. Due to exchange control laws and regulations in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”), if the Grantee is a PRC national, any Shares acquired at vesting of the RSUs will be deposited in an account established for Grantee by the Company (the “Account”) with E*Trade Financial or any successor broker designated by Company, in its sole discretion (the “Designated Broker”). Grantee must maintain the Shares issued to Grantee under the Plan in the Account and must not transfer the Shares to any person, broker or other account with the Designated Broker or to a brokerage account outside of the Designated Broker.

Any dividends related to Shares acquired under the Plan may, at the Company’s sole discretion, be deposited into an Account with the Designated Broker, or re-invested by Company on behalf of the Grantee.

Until such time as the Shares acquired at vesting of the RSUs are sold, the Grantee must maintain the Shares issued to Grantee under the Plan in the Account and must not transfer the Shares to another account with the Designated Broker or to a brokerage account outside of the Designated Broker. Due to local regulatory requirements, you agree that the Company may force the sale of the Shares within any time frame as the Company determines to be necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons.

Forfeiture and Sale upon Termination as a Service Provider. The following provision replaces paragraph 4 of the Agreement:

(a)    Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement or the Grant Notice, if the Grantee terminates service as a Service Provider for any or no reason prior to vesting, the unvested RSUs awarded by this Agreement will thereupon be forfeited at no cost to the Company.

(b)    The Grantee must sell all Shares acquired under the Plan on or before the date of termination as a Service Provider. Grantee hereby authorizes Company or the Designated Broker to sell such Shares on behalf of the Grantee without notice to or consent from the Grantee if Grantee has not sold all Shares so acquired as of the date of termination of service. The sale of Shares shall be carried out within a reasonable time of termination of service as determined by Company. The proceeds from such sale, net any Tax-Related Items and broker’s fees, shall be deposited in the Grantee’s bank account in China, or delivered to the Grantee in China through such other means determined by Company, in its discretion. The Grantee hereby releases and holds harmless Company and any Parent or Subsidiary, employees and agents (“Indemnitees”) from any loss that the Grantee may incur due to the timing of the sale of Shares by Company and acknowledges that the Company and the Employer are under no obligation to arrange for the sale of the Shares at any particular price and are not liable for any fluctuations in the trading price of the Shares and/or the U.S. dollar exchange rate.

(c)    If the Grantee does transfer Shares into an account to which Company has no visibility, then the Grantee will sell all Shares no later than the date of termination as a Service Provider and provide written evidence of such sale of Shares to Company within two (2) business days of the date of termination as a Service Provider. Such evidence must be in a form acceptable to Company.

(d)    The Grantee shall defend, hold harmless and indemnify Indemnitees from any and all penalties, damages, and costs that may be incurred by Indemnitees arising out of or in connection with the Grantee’s failure to comply with these obligations and any requirements under local exchange control laws applicable to him/her.

Exchange Control Restriction. The Grantee understands and agrees that, if he or she is a PRC national, due to exchange control laws and regulations in the PRC, the Grantee will be required to repatriate immediately to the PRC any cash proceeds from the sale of the Shares acquired under the Plan. The Grantee understands further that, under applicable laws and regulations, such repatriation may need to be effected through a special foreign exchange account established by the Company, or a Chinese Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate,, and the Grantee consents and agrees that the proceeds from the sale of the Shares may be transferred to such special account before being delivered to the Grantee. Moreover, if the proceeds from the sale of the Shares are converted to local currency, the Grantee acknowledges that the Company (including its Parent and Subsidiary corporations) is under no obligation to secure any particular currency conversion rate and may face delays in converting the proceeds to local currency due to exchange control restrictions in the PRC. The Grantee agrees to bear the risk of any fluctuation in the U.S. dollar/local currency exchange rate between the date the Grantee realizes U.S. dollar proceeds from his or her participation in the Plan and the date that the Grantee receives cash proceeds converted to local currency. The Grantee also agrees to comply with any other requirements that may be imposed by the Company in the future to facilitate compliance with exchange control requirements in the PRC.

Securities Law Information. The RSUs are being granted pursuant to the “Qualifying Person” exemption” under section 273(1)(f) of the Securities and Futures Act (Chapter 289, 2006 Ed.) (“SFA”). The Plan has not been lodged or registered as a prospectus with the Monetary Authority of Singapore. The Grantee should note that the RSUs are subject to section 257 of the SFA and that the Grantee will not be able to make any

subsequent sale of the Shares in Singapore or any offers of such subsequent sale of the Shares subject to the RSUs in Singapore, unless such sale or offer is made (i) more than six months from the Grant Date, (ii) pursuant to the exemptions under Part XIII Division (1) Subdivision (4) (other than section 280) of the SFA, or (iii) pursuant to, and in accordance with the condition of, any other applicable provisions of the SFA.

Chief Executive Officer and Director Notification Obligation. If the Grantee is the chief executive officer (“CEO”), director, associate director or shadow director of a Singapore Parent or Subsidiary, the Grantee is subject to certain notification requirements under the Singapore Companies Act. Among these requirements is an obligation to notify the Singaporean Parent or Subsidiary in writing when the Grantee receives an interest (e.g., RSUs, Shares) in the Company or any related companies. In addition, the Grantee must notify the Singapore Parent or Subsidiary when the Grantee sells Shares of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary (including when the Recipient sells Shares acquired under the Plan). These notifications must be made within two business days of acquiring or disposing of any interest in the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary. In addition, a notification must be made of the Grantee’s interests in the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary within two business days of becoming the CEO, director, associate director or shadow director.

Termination of Employment. The RSUs provide a conditional right to Shares and may be forfeited or affected by the Grantee’s termination of employment, as set forth in the Agreement. For avoidance of doubt, the Grantee’s rights, if any, to the RSUs upon termination of employment shall be determined as set forth in the Agreement, including, without limitation, where (i) the Grantee is deemed to be constructively dismissed or unfairly dismissed without good cause; (ii) the Grantee is dismissed for disciplinary or objective reasons or due to a collective dismissal; (iii) the Grantee terminates employment due to a change of work location, duties or any other employment or contractual condition (except as otherwise expressly set forth in the Agreement); or (iv) the Grantee terminates employment due to the Company’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ unilateral breach of contract. Consequently, the termination of the Grantee’s employment for any of the above reasons shall be governed by the terms of the Agreement, unless otherwise determined by the Company, in its sole discretion.

Labor Law Acknowledgment. By accepting the RSUs, the Grantee acknowledges that he or she understands and agrees to the terms and conditions applicable to participation in the Plan and that he or she has received a copy of the Plan.

The Grantee understands that the Company has unilaterally, gratuitously and discretionally decided to grant RSUs under the Plan to individuals who may be employees of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company throughout the world. 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 Parent or Subsidiary on an ongoing basis, other than as expressly set forth in the Plan and the Agreement. Consequently, the Grantee understands that any grant is given on the assumption and condition that it shall not become a part of any employment contract (either with the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary) and shall not be considered a mandatory benefit, salary for any purposes (including severance compensation) or any other right whatsoever. Furthermore, the Grantee understands and freely accepts that there is no guarantee that any benefit whatsoever shall arise from any gratuitous and discretionary grant since the future value of the RSUs and the underlying Shares is unknown and unpredictable. In addition, the Grantee understands that this grant would not be made but for the assumptions and conditions referred to above; thus, the Grantee understands, 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 RSUs shall be null and void.

Exchange Control Information. It is the Grantee’s responsibility to comply with exchange control regulations in Spain. The Grantee must declare the acquisition of Shares for statistical purposes to the Spanish Direccion General de Comercio e Inversiones (the “DGCI”) of the Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness. Generally, the declaration must be filed a D-6 form in January for Shares owned as of December 31 of each year; however, if the value of the Shares or the sale proceeds exceed €1,502,530, a declaration must be filed within one month of the acquisition or sale, as applicable.

When receiving foreign currency payments in excess of €50,000 derived from the ownership of Shares (e.g., as a result of the sale of the Shares or the receipt of dividends), the Grantee must inform the financial institution receiving the payment of the basis upon which such payment is made. The Grantee will likely need to provide the institution with the following information: (i) the Grantee’s name, address, and fiscal identification number; (ii) the name and corporate domicile of the Company; (iii) the amount of the payment; (iv) the currency used; (v) the country of origin; (vi) the reasons for the payment; and (vii) any additional information that may be required.

Further, the Grantee is required to declare electronically to the Bank of Spain any securities accounts (including brokerage accounts held abroad), as well as the Shares held in such accounts if the value of the transactions during the prior tax year or the balances in such accounts as of December 31 of the prior tax year exceed €1,000,000.

Foreign Asset/Account Reporting Information. To the extent that the Grantee holds Shares and/or has bank accounts outside Spain with a value in excess of €50,000 (for each type of asset) as of December 31, the Grantee will be required to report information on such assets on his or her tax return (tax form 720) for such year. After such Shares and/or accounts are initially reported, the reporting obligation will apply for subsequent years only if the value of any previously-reported Shares or accounts increases by more than €20,000.

Securities Law Information. The RSUs and the Shares issued upon vesting do not qualify under Spanish regulations as a security. No “offer of securities to the public,” as defined under Spanish law, has taken place or will take place in the Spanish territory. The Plan and the Agreement, including this Appendix, have not been nor will they be registered with the Comisión Nacional del Mercado de Valores (Spanish Securities Exchange Commission), and they do not constitute a public offering prospectus.

There are no country-specific provisions.

Securities Law Notification. The grant of the RSUs and the issuance of any Shares is not intended to be a public offering in Switzerland. Neither this document nor any other materials relating to the RSUs constitute a prospectus as such term is understood pursuant to article 652a of the Swiss Code of Obligations, and neither this document nor any other materials relating to the RSUs may be publicly distributed nor otherwise made publicly available in Switzerland. Neither this document nor any other offering or marketing material relating to the RSUs have been or will be filed with, or approved or supervised by, any Swiss regulatory authority (in particular, the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA)).

Data Privacy Acknowledgement. The Grantee hereby acknowledges that he or she has read and understood the terms regarding collection, processing and transfer of Data contained in paragraph 12 of the Agreement and by participating in the Plan, the Grantee agrees to such terms. In this regard, upon request of the Company or the Employer, the Grantee agrees to provide an executed data privacy consent form to the Employer or the Company (or any other agreements or consents that may be required by the Employer or the Company) that the Company and/or the Employer may deem necessary to obtain under the data privacy laws in the Grantee's country, either now or in the future. The Grantee understands he or she will not be able to participate in the Plan if the Grantee fails to execute any such consent or agreement.

Securities Law Information. The grant of the RSUs and the Shares to be issued pursuant to the Plan are available only for eligible Service Providers. It is not a public offer of securities by a Taiwanese company; therefore, it is exempt from registration in Taiwan.

Exchange Control Information. Taiwanese residents may acquire and remit foreign currency (including funds to purchase or proceeds from the sale of Shares) into and out of Taiwan up to US$5 million per year without submission of supporting documentation. If the transaction amount is TWD$500,000 or more in a single transaction, Taiwanese residents are required to submit a foreign exchange transaction form and if the transaction amount is US$500,000 or more in a single transaction, such residents may be required to provide supporting documentation to the satisfaction of the remitting bank. The Grantee is personally responsible for complying with exchange control restrictions in Taiwan.

Exchange Control Notification. Thai resident the Grantees realizing US$50,000 or more in a single transaction from the sale of Shares issued to the Grantee following the vesting and settlement of RSUs must repatriate the proceeds to Thailand and then either convert such proceeds into Thai Baht or deposit the proceeds into a foreign currency account opened with any commercial bank in Thailand within 360 days of repatriation.  Further, for repatriated proceeds of US$50,000 or more, the Grantee must specifically report the inward remittance to the Bank of Thailand on a Foreign Exchange Transaction Form.  If the Grantee fails to comply with these obligations, the Grantee may be subject to penalties assessed by the Bank of Thailand. The Grantee is personally responsible for complying with exchange control restrictions in Thailand. Because exchange control regulations change frequently and without notice, the Grantee should consult his or her personal legal advisor to ensure compliance with applicable exchange control laws in Thailand.

RSUs Payable in Shares Only. Notwithstanding any discretion in the Plan, the RSUs will be settled in Shares only. The RSUs do not provide any right for the Grantee to receive a cash payment.

Tax Obligations. The following provision supplements paragraph 9 (“Tax Obligations”) of the Agreement:

Without limitation to paragraph 9 of the Agreement, the Grantee 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 Employer or by Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs (“HMRC”) (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority). The Grantee also agrees to indemnify and keep indemnified the Company and the Employer against any Tax–Related Items that the Company or the Employer 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 the Grantee’s behalf.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Grantee is a director or executive officer of the Company (within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), the Grantee understands that he or she may not be able to indemnify the Company for the amount of any income tax not collected from or paid by the Grantee within ninety (90) days of the end of the U.K. tax year in which the event giving rise to the Tax-Related Items occurs, in case the indemnifications would be considered to be a loan. In this case, the income tax not collected or paid may constitute a benefit the Grantee on which additional income tax and National Insurance contributions (“NICs”) may be payable. The Grantee understands 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 reimbursing the Company or the Employer, as applicable, for the value of any NICs due on this additional benefit. If the Grantee fails to comply with his or her obligations in connection with the income tax as described in this section, the Company may refuse to deliver the Shares to the Grantee without any liability to the Company or the Employer.

Joint Election for Transfer of Secondary Class 1 National Insurance Contributions to the Grantee. As a condition of vesting of the RSUs, the Grantee agrees to accept any liability for secondary Class 1 national insurance contributions, which may be payable by the Company or the Employer in connection with the RSUs (“Employer NICs”). To accomplish the foregoing, the Grantee agrees to enter into an election between himself or herself and the Employer (the “Election”), by printing, signing and returning the form approved for such Election by HMRC and attached as Exhibit B to this Agreement to the Human Resources Manager prior to vesting of the RSUs. The Grantee further agrees to enter into any other consents or elections required to accomplish the transfer of the Employer NICs to the Grantee, prior to vesting of the RSUs. The Grantee further agrees to enter into such other joint elections as may be required between himself or herself and any successor to the Company and/or the Employer. If the Grantee does not enter into an Election prior to the vesting of the RSUs, the Grantee will permanently forfeit the RSUs without any liability to the Company and/or the Employer and any Shares that have been issued upon vesting will be returned to the Company at no cost to the Company.

The Grantee further agrees that the Company and/or the Employer may collect the Employer NICs by any of the means set forth in paragraph 9 of the Agreement, as supplemented above.
