(c)  In the event of the occurrence of a Change in Control prior to the expiration of the Performance Period, the value of the Target Amount outstanding as of the date of the Change in Control shall be prorated (based on the ratio of (x) the number of days that have elapsed in the Performance Period to (y) the total number of days in the Performance Period) and compared to actual performance up to and including the date of such Change in Control (the “Prorated Award”) and the Grantee shall become vested in the Prorated Award immediately prior to (and contingent on) the Change in Control if the prorated performance targets have been met as determined by the Administrator.

(d)  In the event of (i) the occurrence of a Change in Control during the Time Vesting Period and (ii) the Grantee’s termination of continuous service with the Employer, the Company or any Related Company for reasons other than (A) resignation without Good Reason, or (B) Cause, during the one year period following the Change in Control, 100% of the Target Amount that is subject to the Time Vesting Period will become vested immediately prior to (and contingent upon) such termination.

(e)  In the event of the termination of the Grantee's continuous service with the Employer, the Company or any Related Company,  by reason of the Grantee’s death or Disability prior to the expiration of the Time Period, 100% of the Target Amount based upon the target (100%) Time level will become vested immediately prior to (and contingent on) the occurrence of such death or Disability.  If the Grantee’s continuous service with the Employer, the Company or any Related Company ceases by reason of the Grantee’s death or Disability during the Time Vesting Period, 100% of the Target Amount that is subject to the Time Vesting Period will become vested immediately prior to (and contingent upon) the occurrence of such death or Disability.

(f)  Except as provided in Sections 3(c),  3(d) and 3(e), in the event of the termination of the Grantee's continuous service with the Employer, the Company or any Related Company for any other reason: (i) any portion of the Award that has not, prior to such cessation, become vested will immediately and automatically, without any action on the part of the Grantor, be forfeited, and (ii) the Grantee shall have no further rights with respect to the Award.

(g)  For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” and “Wrongful Act” mean:

4/13

(i).   Grantee materially breaches Grantee’s obligations under any employment, consulting, or other agreement between the Grantee and the Employer, the Company or any Related Company (each, a “Company Agreement”);

(ii).  Grantee materially breaches Grantee’s obligations under the Company’s Code of Ethics and Conduct (or any successor thereto) or an established policy of the Company;

(iii). Grantee engages in conduct prohibited by law (other than minor violations), commits an act of dishonesty, fraud, or serious or willful misconduct in connection with Grantee’s job duties, or engages in unethical or immoral conduct that, in the reasonable judgment of the Administrator, could injure the integrity, character or reputation of the Employer, the Company or any Related Company;

(iv). Grantee fails or refuses to perform, or habitually neglects, Grantee’s duties and responsibilities under any Company Agreement (other than on account of Disability), and continues such failure, refusal or neglect after having been given written notice that specifies what duties Grantee failed to perform and an opportunity to cure of 10 days;

(v).  Use or disclosure by Grantee of confidential information or trade secrets of the Employer, the Company or any Related Company, other than in the furtherance of the Employer's, the Company's or any Related Company's business interests, or other violation of a fiduciary duty to the Employer, the Company or any Related Company (including, without limitation, entering into any transaction or contractual relationship causing diversion of business opportunity from the Employer, the Company or any Related Company); or

(vi). Grantee fails to reasonably cooperate with any audit or investigation involving the Employer, the Company or any Related Company or its business practices after having been given written notice that specifies Grantee’s failure to cooperate and an opportunity to cure of 10 days.

(h)  For purposes of this Agreement, the termination date of the Grantee's service with the Employer, the Company or any Related Company shall mean the earliest of (i) the date on which notice of termination is provided to the Grantee, (ii) the last day of the Grantee's active service with the Employer, the Company or any Related Company, or (iii) the last day on which the Grantee is an employee of the Employer, the Company or any Related Company, as determined in each case without including any required advance notice period and irrespective of the status of the termination under local labor or employment laws.

 

(i)   If the Grantee is a resident of or employed in a country that is a member of the European Union, the grant of the Award and this Agreement are intended to comply with the age discrimination provisions of the EU Equal Treatment Framework Directive, as implemented into local law (the “Age Discrimination Rules”).  To the extent that a court or tribunal of competent jurisdiction determines that any provision of this Agreement or the Award are invalid or

5/13

unenforceable, in whole or in part, under the Age Discrimination Rules, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall have the power and authority to revise or strike such provision to the minimum extent necessary to render it valid and enforceable to the full extent permitted under local law.

 

4.         Payment of Award.  As soon as administratively practicable following each vesting date (target month: March), the Grantor shall make a cash payment in local currency, less any applicable tax withholding and/or any other required withholdings pursuant to Section 5 of this Agreement, to the Grantee equal to the vested percentage of the time-based Target Amount portion.  For purposes of the foregoing, the amount of the cash payment in local currency shall be determined using the applicable currency conversion rate on the date of payment or up to 10 days prior, as determined by the Administrator (or its delegate) in its sole discretion.

5.         Withholding of Tax-Related Items.  Regardless of any action the Grantor may take with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, housing fund, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), the Grantee acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by the Grantee is and remains the Grantee's responsibility, and that the Grantor (i) makes no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Award, including the grant of the Award, the vesting of the Award, and any cash payments made in settlement of the Award; and (ii) does not commit to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Award to reduce or eliminate the Grantee's liability for Tax-Related Items.  Prior to the delivery of any cash payment in settlement of the Award, if any taxing jurisdiction requires withholding of Tax-Related Items, the Grantor shall withhold any amount necessary to pay the Tax-Related Items from the gross amount of the cash payment in settlement of the Award.

6.         Restrictions on Unvested Award. Except for the forfeiture of the Award, as described in Section 3, the Grantee may not sell, pledge, assign, encumber, hypothecate, gift, transfer, bequeath, devise, donate or otherwise dispose of, in any way or manner whatsoever, whether voluntary or involuntary, any legal or beneficial interest in any portion of the Award until the Award becomes vested in accordance with Section 3.

7.         Recoupment of Cash Payments.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary and to the extent permitted under applicable law, if the Administrator determines that the Grantee’s Wrongful Act was a significant contributing factor to the Employer, the Company or any Related Company having to restate all or a portion of its financial statements, any outstanding portion of the Award will immediately and automatically be forfeited and the Grantee shall promptly repay to the Grantor any cash or other property previously paid in respect of the Award during the Recoupment Period.

8.         No Right to Continued Service.  To the extent the Award is granted to the Grantee by an entity other than the Employer, the Grantor's grant of the Award shall not be deemed to create an employment relationship with the Grantee.  Further, the granting of the Award evidenced hereby and this Agreement shall impose no obligation on the Employer to continue the employment of the Grantee and shall not lessen or affect any right that the Employer may have to terminate the employment of such Grantee.

9.         Discretionary Nature of Agreement; No Vested Rights. The Grantee acknowledges and agrees that the Agreement is discretionary in nature and may be amended, cancelled, or terminated by the Grantor, in its sole discretion, at any time.  The grant of

6/13

the Award under this Agreement is a one-time benefit and does not create any contractual or other right to receive a grant of an Award or any other award under this Agreement or other benefits in lieu thereof in the future.  Future grants, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Grantor.  Any amendment, modification or termination of the Agreement shall not constitute a change or impairment of the terms and conditions of the Grantee’s employment with the Employer.

10.       Extraordinary Nature of Award.  The value of the Award is an extraordinary item of compensation outside the scope of the Grantee’s employment (and the Grantee’s employment agreement, if any), and 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.

11.       Repatriation and Legal/Tax Compliance Requirements.  The Grantee agrees, as a condition to the grant of the Award, to repatriate all cash acquired pursuant to the Award in accordance with local foreign exchange rules and regulations in the Grantee’s country of residence (and country of employment, if different).  In addition, the Grantee agrees to take any and all actions, and consents to any and all actions taken by the Employer, the Company or any Related Company as may be required to allow the Employer, the Company or any Related Company to comply with local laws, rules and regulations in the Grantee’s country of residence (and country of employment, if different).  Finally, the Grantee agrees to take any and all actions that may be required to comply with the Grantee’s personal legal and tax obligations under local laws, rules and regulations in the Grantee’s country of residence (and country of employment, if different).

12.       Consent to Collection, Processing and Transfer of Personal DataPursuant to applicable personal data protection laws, the Grantor hereby notifies the Grantee of the following in relation to the Grantee’s personal data and the collection, processing and transfer of such data in relation to the Grantor’s grant of the Award.  The collection, processing and transfer of the Grantee’s personal data are necessary for the Grantor’s administration of the Grantee's Award.  As such, the Grantee voluntarily acknowledges and consents (where required under applicable law) to the collection, use, processing and transfer of personal data as described herein. The Grantor holds certain personal information about the Grantee, including the Grantee’s name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social security number or other employee identification number, salary, nationality, and job title for the purpose of managing and administering the Grantee's Award (“Data”).  The Data may be provided by the Grantee or collected, where lawful, from third parties, and the Grantor will process the Data for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Grantee’s Award.  The Data processing will take place through electronic and non-electronic means according to logics and procedures strictly correlated to the purposes for which Data are collected and with confidentiality and security provisions as set forth by applicable laws and regulations in the Grantee’s country of residence (and country of employment, if different).  Data processing operations will be performed minimizing the use of personal and identification data when such operations are unnecessary for the processing purposes sought.  Data will be accessible within the Grantor’s organization only by those persons requiring access for purposes of the implementation and administration of the Grantee's Award.  The Grantor will transfer Data internally as necessary for the purpose of the implementation and administration of the Grantee’s Award, and the Grantor may further transfer Data to any third parties assisting the Company in the implementation and administration of the Grantee's Award.  These recipients may be located in the European Economic Area, or elsewhere throughout the

7/13

13.       Electronic Delivery.  The Grantor may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related to the Award granted to the Grantee under this Agreement by electronic means.  The Grantee hereby consents to receive such documents by electronic delivery and agrees to participate in this Agreement through an on-line or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or a third party designated by the Grantor.

14.       English Language.  The Grantee acknowledges and agrees that it is the Grantee’s express intent that the Agreement and all other documents, notices and legal proceedings entered into, given or instituted pursuant to the Award, be drawn up in English.  If the Grantee has received the Agreement or any other documents related to the Award translated into a language other than English, and if the meaning of the translated version is different than the English version, the English version shall control.

15.       Addendum.  Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Award shall be subject to any special terms and conditions for the Grantee’s country of residence (and country of employment, if different) as are forth in the applicable Addendum  A to this Agreement (the “Addendum”).  Further, if the Grantee transfers residency and/or employment to another country reflected in an Addendum to the Agreement, the special terms and conditions for such country will apply to the Grantee to the extent the Grantor determines, in its sole discretion, that the application of such terms and conditions is necessary or advisable in order to comply with local law or to facilitate the operation and administration of the Award (or the Grantor may establish alternative terms and conditions as may be necessary or advisable to accommodate the Grantee’s transfer).  Any applicable Addendum shall constitute part of this Agreement.

16.       Additional RequirementsThe Grantor reserves the right to impose other requirements on the Award, to the extent the Company determines in its sole discretion, that such other requirements are necessary or advisable in order to comply with local law or to facilitate the operation and administration of the Award.  Such requirements may include (but are not limited to) requiring the Grantee to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing.

17.       Headings.  The headings preceding the text of the sections in this Agreement hereof are inserted solely for convenience of reference, and shall not constitute a part of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, nor shall they affect its meaning, construction or effect.

18.       Severability.  The provisions of this Agreement are severable and if any one or more provisions are determined to be illegal or otherwise unenforceable, in whole or in part, the remaining provisions shall nevertheless be binding and enforceable.

8/13

20.       General Provisions

(a)  This Agreement represents the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the Award and may only be modified or amended in a writing signed by both parties.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be modified or amended without the consent of the Grantee, should the Grantor determine in its sole discretion that a modification or amendment is advisable and necessary to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement.

(e)  Either party’s failure to enforce any provision or provisions of this Agreement will not in any way be construed as a waiver of any such provision or provisions, nor prevent that party thereafter from enforcing each and every other provision of this Agreement. The rights granted both parties herein are cumulative and will not constitute a waiver of either party’s right to assert all other legal remedies available to it under the circumstances.
