Each Option entitles you to purchase one share of Common Stock on the terms described below in this agreement and in the Plan.

Vesting and Exercisability
You cannot exercise the Options until they have vested.
Regular Vesting – The Options will vest in accordance with the schedule set forth in Appendix A (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 Solutions or a Subsidiary (as defined below) terminates prior to the Vesting Date.
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 (i) the Date of Expiration as stated above or (ii) 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 Vesting Date or to expire sooner than the Date of Expiration as stated above. Those events are as follows:
Disability- If your employment or service with Motorola Solutions or a Subsidiary is terminated because of your Total and Permanent Disability (as defined below) prior to the Vesting Date; the Target Option Award will automatically become fully vested upon your termination of employment or service. These vested Options will then expire on the earlier of the first anniversary of your termination of employment or service because of your Total and Permanent Disability or the Date of Expiration stated above. Until that time, the vested Options will be exercisable by you or your guardian or legal representative.
Death- If your employment or service with Motorola Solutions or a Subsidiary is terminated because of your death prior to the Vesting Date, the Target Option Award will automatically become fully vested upon your death. These vested 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 vested Options will be exercisable by your legal representative, legatees or distributees.
Change In Control- If a “Change in Control” of the Company occurs prior to the Vesting Date, and the successor corporation does not assume these Options or replace them with options that are economically equivalent to these Options, then: (i) the Target Option Award will automatically become fully vested and (ii) these vested Options will be exercisable until the Date of Expiration set forth above.
Further, if the Options are assumed or replaced as described in the preceding paragraph, such assumed or replaced options shall provide that they will be earned and vested at the “target” level of performance and remain exercisable until the Date of Expiration set forth above if you are involuntarily terminated (for a reason other than “Cause”) or if you quit for “Good Reason” within 24 months of the Change in Control. For purposes of this paragraph, the terms “Change in Control”, “Cause” and “Good Reason” are defined in the Plan.
Termination of Employment or Service Because of Serious Misconduct- If Motorola Solutions or a Subsidiary terminates your employment or service because of Serious Misconduct (as defined below) all of your Options (vested and unvested) expire upon your termination.
Change in Employment in Connection with a Divestiture- If, prior to the Vesting Date, you accept employment with another company in direct connection with the sale, lease, outsourcing arrangement or any other type of asset transfer or transfer of any portion of a facility or any portion of a discrete organizational unit of Motorola Solutions or a Subsidiary, or if you remain employed by a Subsidiary that is sold (a “Divestiture”), then your Options will vest on a pro rata basis on the Vesting Date, provided that you have been continuously employed by the Company for at least two years following the beginning of the Performance Period, in an amount equal to (a) the Target Option Award (Column A) times (b) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of completed full months of service by the Grantee from the beginning of the Performance Period to the date employment is terminated due to the Divestiture and the denominator of which is 36, times (c) the Payout Factor (Column C) as calculated on the Vesting Date. These vested Options will expire on the earlier of (i) 90 days after the Vesting Date or (ii) the Date of Expiration stated above.
Retirement- If your employment terminates due to your Retirement (as defined below), then your Options will vest on a pro rata basis on the Vesting Date in an amount equal to (a) the Target Option Award (Column A) times (b) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of completed full months of service by the Grantee from the beginning of the Performance Period to the date of your Retirement and the denominator of which is 36, times (c) the Payout Factor (Column C) as calculated on the Vesting Date. These vested Options will expire on the earlier of (i) 90 days after the Vesting Date or (ii) the Date of Expiration stated above.
Termination of Employment or Service by Motorola Solutions or a Subsidiary Other than for Serious Misconduct or a Divestiture- If Motorola Solutions or a Subsidiary on its initiative, terminates your employment or service other than for Serious Misconduct or a Divestiture prior to the Vesting Date, then your Options will vest on a pro rata basis on the Vesting Date, provided that you have been continuously employed by the Company for at least two
years following the beginning of the Performance Period, in an amount equal to (a) the Target Option Award (Column A) times (b) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of completed full months of service by the Grantee from the beginning of the Performance Period to the date of your termination of employment or service and the denominator of which is 36, times (c) the Payout Factor (Column C) as calculated on the Vesting Date. All of your vested but not yet exercised Options will expire on the earlier of (i) 90 days after the Vesting Date or (ii) the Date of Expiration stated above.
Termination of Employment or Service for any Other Reason than Described Above- If your employment or service with Motorola Solutions or a Subsidiary terminates for any reason other than that described above, including voluntary resignation of your employment or service other than due to Retirement, all of your unvested Options will automatically expire upon termination of your employment or service and all of your vested but not yet exercised Options will expire on the earlier of (i) the date ninety (90) days after your termination date or (ii) the Date of Expiration stated above.
Leave of Absence/Temporary Layoff
If you take a Leave of Absence or you are placed on Temporary Layoff (each as defined below) by Motorola Solutions or a Subsidiary the following will apply:
Vesting of Options- Options will continue to vest in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth above.
Exercising Options- You may exercise Options that are vested or that vest during the Leave of Absence or Temporary Layoff.
Effect of Termination of Employment or Service- If your employment or service is terminated during the Leave of Absence or Temporary Layoff, the treatment of your Options will be determined as described under “Special Vesting Dates and Special Expiration Dates” above.

Tax Withholding- Motorola Solutions 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.
