On the Original Date of Grant (the “Date of Grant”), Motorola, Inc. granted you options to purchase shares of its common stock under the Motorola Omnibus Incentive Plan of 2006. Such options have been assumed by Motorola Mobility Holdings, Inc. (“Motorola Mobility” or the “Company”) through the Motorola Mobility Holdings, Inc. Legacy Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) as of the Distribution Date (as defined in the Plan). The number of options (“Options”) awarded to you and the exercise price per Option (as adjusted, the “Exercise Price”) have been adjusted as stated above to reflect the assumption and substitution of the awards by Motorola Mobility under the terms of the Plan. As adjusted, each Option entitles you to purchase one share of Motorola Mobility’s common stock on the terms described below and in the Plan. Your future vesting and exercise period will be based on your service with Motorola Mobility or a Subsidiary (as defined below). The terms and conditions of this Award Document, including the terms and conditions related to the vesting and expiration of Options upon a “Change in Control”, should be construed and interpreted in accordance with the above, as well as the terms and conditions of the Plan.

Your Options will continue to vest and become exercisable in accordance with the original terms and conditions set forth in the applicable Motorola Plans (as defined in the Plan) and your award agreement having the Original Date of Grant specified above, including any special vesting dates or conditions, with the exception that your vesting on and after January 4, 2011 shall be determined solely by reference to your employment or service with Motorola Mobility or a Subsidiary. For the Number of Options Outstanding as of January 4, 2011 (as adjusted) that are currently vested and exercisable, and those that are scheduled to vest and become exercisable on each future vesting date, you should refer to your on-line account (currently with Morgan Stanley Smith Barney, and reachable at https://www.benefitaccess.com/). You are strongly encouraged to view your on-line account immediately to completely understand your Options and their vesting schedule.

Exhibit 10.34

 

Vesting and Exercisability

You cannot exercise the Options until they have vested.

Regular Vesting – The Options will vest according to the terms and conditions described above (subject to the other terms hereof).

Special Vesting – You may be subject to the Special Vesting Dates described below if your employment or service with Motorola Mobility or a Subsidiary (as defined below) terminates.

Exercisability – You may exercise Options at any time after they vest and before they expire as described below.

Expiration

All Options expire on the earlier of (1) the Date of Expiration as stated above or (2) any of the Special Expiration Dates described below. Once an Option expires, you no longer have the right to exercise it.

Special Vesting Dates and Special Expiration Dates

There are events that cause your Options to vest sooner than the Regular Vesting schedule discussed above or to expire sooner than the Date of Expiration as stated above. Those events are as follows:

Board Service Following Employment Period - If you continue as a member of the Board of Directors of Motorola Mobility (the “Board”), then all of your Options will continue to vest in accordance with the Regular Vesting schedule (or, in the event of a “Change in Control”, in accordance with the Special Vesting rules discussed below) based upon your continued service as a member of the Board. If you cease to serve as a member of the Board for any reason, then (a) all of your unvested Options will become fully vested on the date your Board service ceases, and (b) all of your Options will be exercisable from the date your Board service ceases until the Date of Expiration set forth above, unless any of the following four Special Vesting rules apply:

-If you are removed from the Board or not re-nominated to the Board for “Cause” as defined in the Plan, then all of your Options (vested and unvested) expire upon the date you cease to be a member of the Board.

-If you voluntarily resign from the Board, all of your unvested Options will automatically expire upon the effective date of your resignation, and all of your vested but not yet exercised Options will expire on the earlier of (i) the date ninety (90) days after the date of resignation, or (ii) the Date of Expiration stated above.

-If your service with the Board ends because of your death, Options that are not vested will automatically become fully vested upon your death. All your Options will then expire on the earlier of the first anniversary of your death or the Date of Expiration stated above. Until that time, with written proof of death and inheritance, the Options will be exercisable by your legal representative, legatees or distributees.

-If a “Change in Control” of the Company occurs during your service with the Board, and the successor corporation does not assume these Options or replace them with options that preserve the existing value of this award at the time of the Change in Control and provide for subsequent payout in accordance with the same vesting schedule applicable to this award, then: (1) all of your unvested Options will be fully vested and (2) all of your Options will be exercisable until the Date of Expiration set forth above. Further, with respect to any Options that are assumed or replaced as described above, such assumed or replaced options shall provide that they will be fully vested and exercisable until the Date of Expiration set forth above if you resign from the Board for Good Reason or are removed from the Board or not renominated to the Board for a reason other than “Cause” within 24 months of the Change in Control. For purposes of this paragraph, the terms “Good Reason”, “Change in Control” and “Cause” are defined in the Plan.

Other Terms

Method of Exercising- You must follow the procedures for exercising options established by Motorola Mobility from time to time. At the time of exercise, you must pay the Exercise Price for all of the Options being exercised and any taxes that are required to be withheld by Motorola Mobility or a Subsidiary in connection with the exercise. Options may not be exercised for less than 50 shares unless the number of shares represented by the Option is less than 50 shares, in which case the Option must be exercised for the remaining amount.

Transferability- Unless the Committee provides, Options are not transferable other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

Tax Withholding- Motorola Mobility or a Subsidiary is entitled to withhold an amount equal to the required minimum statutory withholding taxes for the respective tax jurisdictions attributable to any share of common stock deliverable in connection with the exercise of the Options. You may satisfy any minimum withholding obligation and any additional withholding, if desired, by electing to have the plan administrator retain Option shares having a Fair Market Value on the date of exercise equal to the amount to be withheld.

The grant of awards under the Plan is a one-time benefit and does not create any contractual or other right to receive an award in the future or to future employment.

Your acceptance of this award and participation under the Plan is voluntary. The value of your stock option awarded herein is an extraordinary item of compensation outside the scope of your employment contract, if any. As such, the stock option is not part of normal or expected compensation for purposes of calculating any severance, resignation, redundancy, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension, or retirement benefits or similar payments, notwithstanding any provision of any compensation, insurance agreement or benefit plan to the contrary.

Agreement Following Termination of Employment

You agree that upon termination of employment with Motorola Mobility or a Subsidiary, and for a period of one year thereafter, you will immediately inform Motorola Mobility of (i) the identity of your new employer (or the nature of any start-up business or self-employment), (ii) your new title, and (iii) your job duties and responsibilities. You hereby authorize Motorola Mobility or a Subsidiary to provide a copy of this Award Document to your new employer. You further agree to provide information to Motorola Mobility or a Subsidiary as may from time to time be requested in order to determine your compliance with the terms hereof.

Any substitute Stock Appreciation Right may be settled only in common stock.
