GLOBAL PERFORMANCE-BASED RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT

[Insert Date of Grant]

        The parties to this Global Performance-Based Restricted Stock Unit Agreement, including any additional terms and conditions for the jurisdictions in the appendix hereto (the “Appendix” and collectively with this Global Performance-Based Restricted Stock Unit Agreement, the “Agreement”) are Teledyne Technologies Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) and the Executive named at the top of the Agreement (the “Executive”). Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Amended and Restated Teledyne Technologies Incorporated 2014 Incentive Award Plan (the “Plan”).


    WITNESSETH:


        WHEREAS, the Company has adopted the Plan, which is administered by the Personnel and Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors of the Company;

        WHEREAS, the Executive is employed by the Company or a Subsidiary (the "Employer"); and

        WHEREAS, pursuant to Article 9 of the Plan, the Committee has determined to grant to the Executive an Award of Restricted Stock Units as provided herein (the “Award”) to encourage the Executive’s efforts toward the continuing long-term success of the Employer, the Company and its Subsidiaries;

        NOW, THEREFORE, the parties, by their electronic acceptance or authentication in a form authorized by the Company, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

1.    RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS

    1.1    Grant of Restricted Stock Units.

        (a)    Effective as of the Date of Grant set forth at the top of this Agreement, the Company hereby grants to the Executive, an Award of Restricted Stock Units in an amount as set forth at the top of this Agreement. The Restricted Stock Units granted pursuant to the Award shall be subject to the Executive providing evidence of the Executive’s acceptance of this Agreement (or the Executive’s estate, if applicable) to the Company. Subject to Section 1.4 of this Agreement, each Restricted Stock Unit represents the right to receive one (1) share of Common Stock at the time and in the manner set forth in Section 1.5 hereof.

        (b)    This Agreement shall be construed in accordance and consistent with, and is subject to, the provisions of the Plan (the provisions of which are hereby incorporated by


1

Exhibit 10.1
reference), as well as any and all determinations, policies, instructions, interpretations, rules, etc., of the Committee in connection with the Plan, including the Administrative Rules adopted with respect to the restricted stock and restricted stock unit program (the “Rules”). The Company reserves the right to amend the Plan and any Rules at any time in its sole discretion, subject to the approval of the Committee. The Executive hereby acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and agrees to be bound by all the terms and provisions thereof. The Restricted Stock Units will be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan, whether or not such provisions are agreed to in writing or acknowledged electronically by the Executive or the Company. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Executive will be deemed to accept such terms unless the Executive affirmatively rejects the grant of Restricted Stock Units, in which case the Award will be cancelled.

    1.2    Restrictions.

        The Restricted Stock Units granted pursuant to this Agreement may not be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of and may not be pledged or otherwise hypothecated except as specifically provided hereunder or pursuant to the Plan. Any attempt to dispose of Restricted Stock Units or any interest therein in a manner contrary to the restrictions set forth in this Agreement or the Plan shall be null, void and ineffective.

    1.3    Vesting.

        (a)    Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, 100% of the Restricted Stock Units granted pursuant to the Award shall vest on [insert vesting date].

        (b)    Notwithstanding Section 1.3(a) above, vesting shall be subject to the performance criteria as set forth on Annex A.
        
        (c)    Notwithstanding Section 1.3(a) or (b) above, if during the applicable Performance Cycle, (i) the Executive’s employment with the Employer terminates for any reason, whether the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Executive or the Employer, with or without just cause, except as otherwise provided in Paragraph 1.3(d), (ii) there occurs a material breach of this Agreement by the Executive or (iii) the Executive fails to meet the tax withholding obligations described in Paragraph 1.6, none of the unvested Restricted Stock Units granted under this Agreement shall vest. For clarity, for purposes of this Agreement, the date of such termination or cessation of the Executive’s employment with the Employer will be determined in accordance with Section 10(k) hereof.

        (d)    If, during the applicable Performance Cycle, the Executive’s employment with the Employer terminates due to the Executive’s death, disability (as determined in the sole discretion of the Committee) or retirement pursuant to the applicable retirement policy (if any) of the Employer or the Company (as applicable) prior to the expiration of the Performance Cycle, the Executive (or the Executive’s beneficiaries) shall continue to hold the Restricted Stock Units through the expiration of the Performance Cycle. At that time, a portion of the Restricted Stock Units shall vest equal to (i) the number of Restricted Stock Units that would have otherwise vested under Section 1.3 had the Executive remained employed by the Employer through the end of the Performance Cycle multiplied by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full months during which the Executive was employed by the Employer from the beginning of the Performance Cycle until the date of the Executive’s termination of employment and the denominator of which is the total number of months in the Performance Cycle (any fractional share of Common Stock resulting from this calculation shall be rounded up to the next whole share).



2

Exhibit 10.1
    (e)    For purposes of this Section 1.3 only, “Employer” shall mean, in addition to the Company or Subsidiary which employs Executive on the date hereof, the Company and any Subsidiary.

    1.4    Forfeiture of Award

        Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any and all Restricted Stock Units that do not vest in accordance with Section 1.3 shall be forfeited and shall revert to the Company.

    1.5    Satisfaction of Award

        (a)    In order to satisfy Restricted Stock Units upon the vesting of any portion of the Award pursuant to this Agreement, the Company shall deliver to the Executive the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Executive is entitled pursuant to this Agreement, subject to any applicable withholding of Tax-Related Items.

        (b)    The aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issued by the Company at any particular time pursuant to this Agreement shall correspond to the number of Restricted Stock Units that become vested on the vesting date, with one (1) Restricted Stock Unit corresponding to one (1) share of Common Stock, subject to any withholding of Tax-Related Items as may be required under this Agreement, notwithstanding any delay between the vesting date and the settlement date. Fractional shares of Common Stock will not be issued and will be rounded up to the nearest whole share of Common Stock. The number and kind of shares to be issued pursuant to this Agreement shall be appropriately adjusted to prevent dilution or enlargement of rights by reason of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or exchange of shares, recapitalization, merger, consolidation or other change in capitalization with a similar substantive effect upon each Restricted Stock Unit or the shares issuable in satisfaction of each Restricted Stock Unit. Until such time as shares of Common Stock are issued in satisfaction of a Restricted Stock Unit, as provided hereunder, the Executive shall not be deemed for any purpose to be a stockholder of the Company in respect of any shares as to which the Restricted Stock Unit relates.

        (c)    The Company will satisfy its obligations to deliver Common Stock under this Agreement on the applicable vesting date hereunder or as soon as administratively practicable but no later than thirty (30) days after such vesting date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to Restricted Stock Units that become vested (other than as a result of the Executive’s death), if the Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code as of the date upon which the Executive’s employment with the Employer terminates and settlement of such Restricted Stock Units is required to be delayed pursuant to Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, then the Company shall satisfy its obligations to deliver Common Stock under this Agreement by the later of (i) the date otherwise required by this Agreement or (ii) the first business day of the calendar month following the date which is six (6) months after the date upon which the Executive incurs a ”separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code.

    1.6    Withholding/Responsibility for Taxes.

(a)Regardless of any action taken by the Company or the Employer, the ultimate liability for all income tax (including, without limitation, foreign, federal, state and local taxes), social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or any other tax-related items related to the Executive’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to him or her (“Tax-Related Items”) is and remains Executive’s responsibility and may exceed the amount, if any, actually withheld by the Company and/or the Employer. The Executive further


3

Exhibit 10.1
acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (i) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units, including, without limitation, the grant of the Restricted Stock Units, the vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, the conversion of the Restricted Stock Units into shares of Common Stock or the receipt of a cash payment, the subsequent sale of any shares of Common Stock acquired at vesting and the receipt of any dividends or dividend equivalents; and (ii) do not commit to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units to reduce or eliminate the Executive’s liability for the Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if the Executive is subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction, the Executive acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.
(b)In connection with any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, the Executive agrees to make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy any withholding obligations the Company or the Employer may have for Tax-Related Items. To satisfy any withholding obligations of the Company and/or the Employer with respect to Tax-Related Items, the Company or the Employer will generally withhold whole shares of Common Stock which would otherwise be delivered to the Executive having an aggregate Fair Market Value sufficient to cover the withholding obligation for Tax Related Items. Alternatively, or in addition, the Executive authorizes the Company and/or the Employer, as applicable, and their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy any withholding obligation for Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following:
(i)withholding from the Executive’s wages or other cash compensation payable to the Executive by the Company and/or the Employer, including from any equivalent cash payment received upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units;
(ii)withholding from proceeds of the sale of shares of Common Stock acquired upon vesting, either through a voluntary sale or a mandatory sale arranged by the Company on the Executive’s behalf and without further consent;
(iii)requiring the Executive to tender a cash payment to the Company or the Employer; or
(iv)any other method acceptable to the Company and permitted under the Plan and applicable law;
provided, however, that if the Executive is subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, the Company will withhold shares of Common Stock which would otherwise be delivered to the Executive as provided above in this Section 1.6(b), unless otherwise determined by the Board or the Committee.
(a)The Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering statutory or other withholding rates, including minimum or maximum rates applicable in the Executive’s jurisdiction(s). In the event of over-withholding, the Executive may receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash (with no entitlement to the equivalent in shares of Common Stock), or if not refunded, the Executive may seek a refund from the local tax authorities. In the event of under-withholding, the Executive may be required to pay any additional Tax-Related Items directly to the applicable tax authority or to the Company and/or the Employer. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in shares of Common Stock, for tax purposes, the Executive will be deemed to have been issued the full number of shares of Common Stock subject to the vested Award, notwithstanding that a number of the shares of Common Stock is held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items.



4

Exhibit 10.1
The Company may refuse to deliver the shares of Common Stock or the proceeds of the sale of shares of Common Stock to the Executive if the Executive fails to comply with Executive’s obligations for Tax-Related Items.

    1.7    Change in Control. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in the event of a Change in Control of the Company during the Performance Cycle, all of the Restricted Stock Units (not otherwise forfeited prior to the Change in Control) shall immediately vest.

    1.8    Committee’s Discretion. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Committee shall have discretion to adjust the Performance Cycle or waive any restrictions or conditions with respect to all or a portion of the Restricted Stock Units at any time.

    1.9    Defined Terms. Except as expressly elsewhere in this Agreement, for purposes of this Agreement, the capitalized terms set forth below shall have the following meanings:

        (a)    “Fair Market Value” means, on any date, the closing sales price of a share of Common Stock, as reported on the Composite Tape for the New York Stock Exchange Listed Companies on such date or, if there were no sales on such date, on the last date preceding such date on which a sale was reported.

        (b)    “Performance Cycle” shall specifically refer to the period commencing [insert start date] through [insert end date], including any adjustments to such Cycle made by the Committee.
    

    2.    REPRESENTATION OF THE EXECUTIVE

    The Executive hereby represents to the Employer and the Company that the Executive has read and fully understands the provisions of this Agreement and the Plan and his or her decision to receive the Award is completely voluntary.

benefits under any benefit plan of the Employer or the Company in which the Executive may be enrolled or for which the Executive may become eligible unless otherwise specifically determined by resolution of the Board.

9.    EXECUTIVE DATA PRIVACY

(a)    Authorization to Release and Transfer Certain Personal Information. The Company is located at 1049 Camino Dos Rios, Thousand Oaks, California, USA and offers eligible individuals the opportunity to participate in the Plan, at the Company’s sole discretion. If the Executive would like to participate in the Plan, the Executive understands that the Executive will need to review the information provided in Section 11.7 of the Plan and this Section 9 of the Agreement and, where applicable, declare consent to the processing and/or transfer of personal data as described therein and herein.

(b)    Data Collection and Usage. The Company and its Subsidiaries may collect, process and use the Executive’s personal data, including but not limited to, the Executive’s name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social security or insurance number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title(s), any shares of Common Stock held in the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, details of all rights to purchase shares of Common Stock or any other entitlement to shares of Common Stock awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in the Executive’s favor, which the Company receives from the Executive or the Employer, for the purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Plan (the “Data”). The Company’s legal basis for the processing of the Data is the Executive’s consent.

(c)    Stock Plan Administration Service Providers. The Company and its Subsidiaries may transfer Data to Fidelity Investments (Fidelity), an independent service provider based in the United States, which assists the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. In the future, the Company may select a different service provider and share the Data with another company that serves in a similar manner. The Company’s service provider will open an account for the Executive. The Executive will be asked to agree on separate terms and data processing practices with the service provider, which is a condition to the Executive’s ability to participate in the Plan. The Company’s legal basis, where required, for the transfer of the Data is the Executive’s consent.

(d)    International Data Transfers. The Company and its service providers are based in the United States. If the Executive is outside of the United States, the Executive should note that his or her country may have enacted data privacy laws that are different from the United States. However, the Company’s legal basis for the transfer of the Data is the Executive’s consent.

(e)    Data Retention. The Company will hold and use the Data only as long as is necessary to implement, administer, and manage the Executive’s participation in the Plan.

(f)    Voluntariness and Consequences of Consent Denial or Withdrawal. The Executive’s participation in the Plan and the Executive’s grant of consent is purely voluntary. The Executive may refuse or withdraw his or her consent at any time. If the Executive does not consent, or if the Executive withdraws his or her consent, the Executive cannot participate in the Plan. This would not affect the Executive’s salary as an Executive; the Executive would merely forfeit the opportunities associated with the Plan.

(g)    Data Subject Rights. The Executive has a number of rights under data privacy laws in the Executive’s country. Depending on where the Executive is based, his or her rights


7

Exhibit 10.1
may include the right to (i) request access or copies of Data the Company processes, (ii) rectification of incorrect Data, (iii) deletion of Data, (iv) restrictions on processing, (v) portability of Data, (vi) lodge complaints with competent authorities in the Executive’s country, and/or (vii) review a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Data. To receive clarification regarding the Executive’s rights or to exercise the Executive’s rights, the Executive may contact his or her local human resources representative.

(h)    The Executive also understands that the Company may rely on a different legal basis for the processing or transfer of Data in the future and/or request the Executive to provide another data privacy consent. If applicable and upon request of the Company, the Executive agrees to provide an executed acknowledgement or data privacy consent form to the Company or the Employer (or any other acknowledgements, agreements or consents) that the Company and/or the Employer may deem necessary to obtain under the data privacy laws in the Executive’s country, either now or in the future. The Executive understands that he or she will not be able to participate in the Plan if the Executive fails to execute any such acknowledgement, agreement or consent requested by the Company and/or the Employer.

Executive hereby consents to the transfer and processing of Data in furtherance of this Agreement.

If the Executive agrees with the data processing practices described in this notice, the Executive will confirm his or her consent by accepting this Award by following and clicking on the acceptance prompts on the Fidelity website.

8

Exhibit 10.1

(h)unless otherwise agreed with the Company, the Restricted Stock Units and the underlying shares of Common Stock, and the income from and value of same, are not granted as consideration for, or in connection with, the service the Executive may provide as a director of a subsidiary of the Company;

(i)the future value of the underlying shares of Common Stock is unknown, indeterminable and cannot be predicted with certainty;
(j)no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from forfeiture of the Restricted Stock Units resulting from the termination of the Executive’s employment (for any reason whatsoever whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction where the Executive is employed or the terms of the Executive’s employment agreement, if any) or enforcement of any applicable recoupment or clawback of such Restricted Stock Units or any shares of Common Stock or other benefits or payments relating to such Restricted Stock Units;
(k)for purposes of participation in the Plan, the Executive’s employment will be considered terminated as of the date the Executive is no longer actively providing services to the Company, the Employer or any other Subsidiary (regardless of the reason for such termination and whether or not later to be found invalid or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction where the Executive is employed or the terms of the Executive’s employment agreement, if any), and unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or determined by the Committee, the Executive’s right to participate in the Plan will terminate as of such date and will not be extended by any notice period (e.g., the Executive’s period of service would not include any contractual notice period or any period of “garden leave” or similar period mandated under employment laws in the jurisdiction where the Executive is employed or the terms of the Executive’s employment agreement, if any); the Committee shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when the Executive is no longer actively providing services for purposes of the Plan (including whether the Executive may still be considered to be providing services while on a leave of absence); and

(l)neither the Company, the Employer nor any subsidiary of the Company shall be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between the Executive’s local currency and the United States Dollar that may affect the value of the Restricted Stock Units or of any amounts due to the Executive pursuant to the settlement of the Restricted Stock Units or the subsequent sale of any shares of Common Stock acquired upon settlement.

11.    EFFECTIVE DATE
This Award Agreement shall be deemed to be effective as of the date executed.

12.    IMPOSITION OF OTHER REQUIREMENTS
The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on Executive’s participation in the Plan, on the Award and on any shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable in order to comply with any applicable law or facilitate the administration of the Plan. Executive agrees to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing. Furthermore, Executive acknowledges that the laws of the country in which Executive is working at the time of grant, vesting or the sale of shares of Common Stock received pursuant to this Award (including any rules or regulations governing securities, foreign exchange, tax, labor,


9

Exhibit 10.1
or other matters) may subject Executive to additional procedural or regulatory requirements that Executive is and will be solely responsible for and must fulfill.

The Appendix constitutes part of this Agreement.
14.    INSIDER TRADING / MARKET ABUSE LAWS

    Depending on the Executive’s country or the country in which the shares of Common Stock are listed, the Executive may be subject to insider trading restrictions and/or market abuse laws in the applicable jurisdictions which may affect the Executive’s ability to accept, acquire, sell, attempt to sell or otherwise dispose of shares of Common Stock or rights to shares of Common Stock (e.g., Awards) during such times as the Executive is considered to have “inside information” regarding the Company (as defined by the laws or regulations in applicable jurisdictions). Local insider trading laws and regulations may prohibit the cancellation or amendment of orders the Executive places before possessing the inside information. Furthermore, the Executive understands and agrees that such local laws may prohibit the Executive from (a) disclosing the inside information to any third party, including fellow employees (other than on a “need to know” basis) and (b) “tipping” third parties or causing them to otherwise buy or sell securities. Any restrictions under these laws or regulations are separate from and in addition to any restrictions that may be imposed under the Company’s then applicable Insider Trading Policy. The Executive understands that he or she is responsible for ensuring compliance with any applicable restrictions and should consult with his or her personal legal advisor on this matter.

15.    FOREIGN ASSET / ACCOUNT, EXCHANGE CONTROL AND TAX REPORTING

    Depending on the Executive’s country, the Executive may be subject to foreign asset or account, exchange control and/or tax reporting requirements as a result of the Executive’s right to acquire, hold, and/or transfer of shares of Common Stock or cash resulting from participation in the Plan and/or the opening and maintaining of a brokerage or bank account in connection with the Plan. The Executive may be required to report such assets, accounts, account balances and values, and/or related transactions to applicable authorities in the Executive’s country. The Executive also may be required to repatriate sale proceeds or other funds received as a result of the Executive’s participation in the Plan to the Executive’s country through a designated bank or broker and/or within a certain time after receipt. The Executive acknowledges that he or she is responsible for ensuring compliance with any applicable foreign asset or account, exchange control and tax reporting and other requirements. The Executive further understands that he or she should consult his or her personal tax and legal advisors, as applicable, on these matters.

16.    LANGUAGE

    The Executive acknowledges that he or she is sufficiently proficient in English or has consulted with an advisor who is sufficiently proficient in English, so as to allow the Executive to understand the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Furthermore, if the Executive has received this Agreement, the Appendix and/or any other document related to the Plan translated


10

Exhibit 10.1
into a language other than English and if the meaning of the translated version is different than the English version, the English version will control.

17.    ELECTRONIC DELIVERY AND PARTICIPATION

    The Executive acknowledges that the Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related to the Executive’s current or future participation in the Plan by electronic means and/or may request the Executive’s consent to participate in the Plan by electronic means. The Executive hereby consents to receive such documents by electronic delivery and agrees to participate in the Plan through an online or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or a third party designated by the Company.

18.    WAIVER

    The Executive acknowledges that a waiver by the Company of breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement, or of any subsequent breach by the Executive or any other participant in the Plan.

19.    NO STRICT CONSTRUCTION

    No rule of strict construction shall be implied against the Employer, the Company, the Committee or any other person in the interpretation of any of the terms of the Plan, Rules, this Agreement or any rule or procedure established by the Committee.

20.    USE OF THE WORD “EXECUTIVE”

    Wherever the word “Executive” is used in any provision of this Agreement under circumstances where the provision should logically be construed to apply to the executors, the administrators, or the person or persons to whom the Restricted Stock Units may be transferred by will or the laws of descent and distribution, the word “Executive” shall be deemed to include such person or persons.

21.    FURTHER ASSURANCES

    The Executive agrees, upon demand of the Employer, the Company or the Committee, to do all acts and execute, deliver and perform all additional documents, instruments and agreements which may be reasonably required by the Employer, the Company or the Committee, as the case may be, to implement the provisions and purposes of this Agreement, the Plan and any Rules.

22.    CLAWBACK POLICY

    The Award, including any shares of Common Stock or other payments in connection with the Award, shall be (a) subject to the provisions of any clawback policy implemented by the Company, as contemplated by the Plan, including, without limitation, the Compensation Recoupment Policy effective as of October 2, 2023, or any successor policy; and (b) subject to deduction, clawback or forfeiture to the extent required to comply with any recoupment requirement imposed under applicable laws, rules, regulations or stock exchange listing standards. In order to satisfy any recoupment obligation arising under the Compensation Recoupment Policy or otherwise under applicable laws, rules, regulations or stock exchange listing standards, among other things, the Executive expressly and explicitly authorizes the Company to issue instructions, on the Executive’s behalf, to any brokerage firm or stock plan service provider engaged by the Company to hold any shares of Common Stock or other amounts acquired pursuant to the Award to re-convey, transfer or otherwise return such shares


11

Performance Vesting Criteria
Except as otherwise provided int the Agreement, the Restricted Stock Units will vest only in the event, and to the extent, that the Committee determines and certifies that the Company has met the following total shareholder return performance criteria for the Performance Cycle.  THE DETERMINATION OF THE COMMITTEE AS TO TOTAL SHAREHOLDER RETURN PERFORMANCE AND THE NUMBER OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS THAT VEST IS FINAL AND BINDING.
The percentage of the Restricted Stock Units that vest will be determined as follows, based on the percentile ranking for the Performance Cycle (as measured based on the twenty-day average closing stock price immediately preceding the start of the Performance Cycle compared to the twenty-day average closing stock price immediately preceding the end of the Performance Cycle) of the Company’s cumulative total shareholder return (consisting of per share appreciation in Common Stock plus reinvested dividends and other distributions paid on Common Stock) among the companies (ranked by cumulative total shareholder returns consisting of per share appreciation in each company’s equity plus reinvested dividends and other distributions paid on equity) in the S&P 500 Index, as determined and certified by the Committee, subject to adjustment as described below. For the avoidance of doubt, the twenty-day average preceding the beginning of the performance period shall be based on the twenty trading days prior to and excluding the first day of the Performance Cycle and the twenty-day average preceding the end of the Performance Cycle shall be based on the twenty trading days prior to and including the last trading day of the Performance Cycle.

If the percentile ranking does not equal a ranking shown in the above table, the percentage of the Restricted Stock Units that vest will be determined by a linear interpolation between the next lowest percentile shown in the table and the next highest percentile shown on the table.

If the percentile ranking is below the 25th percentile, none of the Restricted Stock Units will vest.
For purpose of this Agreement, “S&P 500 Index” means the comparison group consisting of each of the companies that comprise the S&P 500 as of the beginning of the Performance Cycle, excluding any companies that have been removed from the Index during the Performance Cycle.

As soon as reasonably practicable following the end of the Performance Cycle, the Committee will determine and certify the extent to which the Company has met the total shareholder return
