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] [pursuant to inducement grant exception under the New York Stock Exchange rules]. 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 employment or service with Motorola Mobility or a Subsidiary (as defined below).
The terms and conditions of this Award Document 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.
