Except as may be set forth in Section 4 below, the PRSUs (or a portion thereof) shall vest upon meeting the performance criteria described in this Agreement on the Vesting Date, provided the Participant remains employed by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries continuously through the Vesting Date. The number of PRSUs that will vest and the number of Ordinary Shares to be issued to the Participant on the Vesting Date will be determined based upon the Company’s Relative Adjusted EPS Performance, together with the Company’s ROIC Performance Modifier, to be determined as follows:

a.The PRSUs will bank, or accrue, in each Performance Year during the Performance Period as follows:

1.Year 1: On the first anniversary of the Grant Date, between 0% and 100% of 1/3 of the PRSUs will be banked, or accrued, based upon the Company’s Relative Adjusted EPS Performance during Year 1 set forth in Table 1 below, adjusted by the ROIC Performance Modifier for Year 1 set forth in Table 2 below.

2.Year 2: On the second anniversary of the Grant Date, between 0% and 125% of 1/3 of the PRSUs will be banked, or accrued, based upon the Company’s Relative Adjusted EPS Performance during Year 2 set forth in Table 1 below, adjusted by the ROIC Performance Modifier for Year 2 set forth in Table 2 below.

2.If the Company’s Three-Year CAGR Relative Performance exceeds the 50th percentile of the Peer Group and the Company’s Year 3 ROIC is 10% or greater, then the product of the total PRSUs granted in this Agreement multiplied by the Three-Year CAGR Modifier multiplied by the Year 3 ROIC Modifier.

•Total PRSUs Granted – 2,400 PRSUs

•1/3 of PRSUs granted (i.e. 800 PRSUs) are used as the basis for determining the banking in Year 1, Year 2 and Year 3

•Each Year: Number of PRSUs banked = 1/3 PRSUs granted * Banked Shares Modifier * ROIC Performance Modifier

•Number of PRSUs Vesting on Vesting Date is greater of:

◦Year 1 banked PRSUs + Year 2 banked PRSUs + Year 3 banked PRSUs OR

◦If Three-Year CAGR Relative Performance is greater than 50th percentile and Year 3 ROIC is 10% or greater, than = Total PRSUs granted * Three-Year CAGR Modifier * Year 3 ROIC Modifier

Formula A = (2,400/3*50%*.85) + (2,400/3*100%*1.00) + (2,400/3*120%*1.15)

     = 340 + 800 + 1,104 = 2,244 PRSUs

Formula B = 2,400 * 120% * 1.15 = 3,312 PRSUs    

Formula B > Formula A so,

Total PRSUs vested = 3,312 PRSUs

4.Vesting on Termination of Employment, Death, Disability, Retirement and Change in Control.

i.General. Unless otherwise provided in this Section 4, any unvested PRSUs shall be forfeited immediately upon the date that Participant terminates his or her Service or otherwise ceases to be a Participant Eligible to Vest (“Termination Date”). Unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or determined by the Committee or its designee, Participant’s right to vest in the PRSUs under the Plan, if any, will terminate as of such Termination Date and will not be extended by any notice period.

ii.Participant’s Death. Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, if a Participant dies while providing Service, the PRSUs shall immediately vest based on the banked amounts for those Performance Year(s) completed and vest at Target for any uncompleted Performance Year.

If the Participant’s status as an employee of the Company and all Affiliates terminates by reason of a Covered Retirement, as defined below, the PRSUs shall immediately vest based on the banked amounts for those Performance Year(s) completed prior to the Participant’s date of retirement plus the pro-rata of the Target for any uncompleted Performance Year (number of days employed during the Performance Year divided 365 multiplied by the Target for the uncompleted Performance Year). For purposes hereof, a “Covered Retirement” is the voluntary termination of a Retirement Eligible Individual who has provided the Company not less than six months’ prior notice of such employee’s intent to retire from the Company or an Affiliate. A “Retirement Eligible Individual” means an employee of the Company or an Affiliate who has attained at least 55 years of age and who has a combined age and years of credited employment service with the Company and/or all Affiliates of 65 years.

Vesting of the time-based RSUs will assume the vesting schedule of the original PRSU award. The time-based RSUs as so converted:

i.Will automatically accelerate and vest in full if within the 24-month period following the Change in Control, the Participant is terminated by the Company or the continuing entity or any of its Affiliates without Cause;

ii.Will automatically accelerate and vest in full at the Change in Control if this Agreement is not assumed or replaced by the acquirer/continuing entity or replaced by other terms or awards deemed by the Compensation Committee to be appropriate; or

The Company defines Adjusted EPS as adjusted net income (“ANI”) divided by the dilutive weighted-average ordinary shares outstanding.

ANI is also a non-GAAP financial measure, and the Company defines ANI as net income (or loss), determined in accordance with GAAP, adjusted to exclude the following items: (i) Restructuring related and other3, (ii) Financing and other transaction costs4, (iii) Step-up depreciation and amortization5, (iv) Deferred loss/(gain), net on derivative instruments6, (v) Amortization of debt issuance costs7, and (vi) Deferred taxes and other tax related8.

Dilutive weighted-average ordinary shares is a financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP9.
