AMENDED AND RESTATED 2002 STOCK PLAN

RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT

(NON-U.S. AWARDEES)

Unless otherwise defined herein, the capitalized terms used in this Award Agreement shall have the same defined meanings as set forth in the Trimble Navigation Limited Amended and Restated 2002 Stock Plan (the “Plan”).

Name:

Address:

You have been awarded the right to receive Common Stock of the Company or a cash equivalent, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Award Agreement, including any special terms and conditions for your country in any appendix attached hereto (the “Appendix”), as follows:

 

Award Number                                                                                                
Award Date                                                                                                
Total Number of Restricted Stock Units Awarded                                                            

Vesting Schedule

One hundred percent (100%) of the Restricted Stock Units subject to this Award shall vest thirty-six (36) months after the Award Date. Vesting of Restricted Stock Units shall at all times be subject to your continuing to be a Service Provider on the applicable date(s) of vesting. Anything in the foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that you cease to be a Service Provider as a result of your death, the Restricted Stock Units shall become immediately vested with respect to the number of Restricted Stock Units that would have vested had you continued as a Service Provider for an additional twenty-four (24) month period following the date of your death.

Settlement

For each vested Restricted Stock Unit, you shall be entitled to receive (a) a number of Shares equal to the number of Restricted Stock Units vesting on such vesting date, or (b) a cash payment equal to the product of the number of Restricted Stock Units vesting on such vesting date and the Fair Market Value of one Share on such vesting date or (c) a combination of the foregoing. Such payment shall be made in the form of Shares, cash or a combination of the foregoing at the Company’s discretion under the terms of the Plan, on or as soon as practicable, but no later than 60 days, following the date of vesting.


Forfeiture

Upon the date that you cease to be a Service Provider, for any reason (including, without limitation, a termination that is deemed to be an “unfair dismissal” or “constructive dismissal”), all unvested Restricted Stock Units shall be forfeited. The date of ceasing to be a Service Provider will not be extended to include any notice of termination or similar period and shall be considered ceased on the last active day of service for the purposes of the Plan.

Tax Obligations

Regardless of any action the Company or your employer (the “Employer”) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to your participation in the Plan and legally applicable to you (“Tax-Related Items”), you acknowledge that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items is and remains your responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld the Company or the Employer. You further acknowledge that the Company and/or the Employer (1) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting or settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, the issuance of Shares upon settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such issuance and the receipt of any dividends and/or any dividend equivalents; and (2) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if you have become subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction between the date of grant and the date of any relevant taxable event, you acknowledge 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.

Prior to any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, you will pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, you authorize the Company and/or the Employer, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy the obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following:

 

  (a)

withholding from your wages or other cash compensation paid to you by the Company and/or the Employer; or

 

  (b)

withholding from proceeds of the sale of the Shares acquired upon vesting/settlement of the Restricted Stock Units either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on your behalf pursuant to this authorization); or

 

  (c)

withholding in Shares to be issued upon vesting/settlement or from the cash payment received at settlement (if any) of the Restricted Stock Units.

 

- 2 -


To avoid negative accounting treatment, the Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding amounts or other applicable withholding rates. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in Shares, for tax purposes, you are deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject to the vested Restricted Stock Units, notwithstanding that a number of Shares are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of any aspect of your participation in the Plan.

Finally, you shall pay to the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for as a result of your participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to issue or deliver the Shares, any cash payments receivable at settlement or the proceeds of the sale of Shares, if you fail to comply with your obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.

NO GUARANTEE OF CONTINUED SERVICE

YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT THE VESTING OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS PURSUANT TO THE VESTING SCHEDULE HEREOF IS EARNED ONLY BY CONTINUING AS A SERVICE PROVIDER AT THE WILL OF YOUR EMPLOYER (AND NOT THROUGH THE ACT OF BEING HIRED, BEING AWARDED RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS, OR RECEIVING CASH OR SHARES HEREUNDER). YOU FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT THIS AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER AND THE VESTING SCHEDULE SET FORTH HEREIN DO NOT CONSTITUTE AN EXPRESS OR IMPLIED PROMISE OF CONTINUED ENGAGEMENT AS A SERVICE PROVIDER FOR THE VESTING PERIOD, FOR ANY PERIOD, OR AT ALL, AND SHALL NOT INTERFERE WITH YOUR RIGHT OR YOUR EMPLOYER’S RIGHT TO TERMINATE YOUR RELATIONSHIP AS A SERVICE PROVIDER AT ANY TIME, WITH OR WITHOUT CAUSE, AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE LOCAL LAW.

(1) the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, it is discretionary in nature and it may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time;

(9) the Restricted Stock Units grant and your participation in the Plan will not be interpreted to form an employment contract or relationship with the Company or any Affiliate;

(10) the future value of the underlying Shares is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty;

(11) no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from forfeiture of the Restricted Stock Units resulting from termination of your employment by the Company or the Employer (for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of local labor laws), and, in consideration of the grant, to which you otherwise are not entitled, you irrevocably agree never to institute any claim against the Company or the Employer, waive your ability, if any, to bring any such claim, and release the Company and the Employer from any such claim; if, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is allowed by a court of competent jurisdiction, you shall be deemed irrevocably to have agreed not to pursue such claim and agree to execute any and all documents necessary to request dismissal or withdrawal of such claim; and

(12) in the event of termination of your employment (whether or not in breach of local labor laws), your right, if any, to vest in the Restricted Stock Units under the Plan will terminate effective as of the date that you are no longer actively employed and will not be extended by any notice period mandated under local law (e.g., active employment would not include a period of “garden leave” or similar period pursuant to local law); the Administrator shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when you are no longer actively employed for purposes of your Restricted Stock Units grant.

Securities Law Information. You should be aware of Dutch insider-trading rules, which may impact the sale of Shares acquired under the Plan. In particular, you may be prohibited from effectuating certain transactions if you have inside information regarding the Company.

By accepting the Restricted Stock Units and participating in the Plan, you acknowledge having read and understood this Securities Law Information and further acknowledge that it is your responsibility to comply with the following Dutch insider-trading rules.

Under Article 46 of the Act on the Supervision of the Securities Trade 1995, anyone who has “inside information” related to an issuing company is prohibited from effectuating a transaction in securities in or from the Netherlands. “Inside information” is defined as knowledge of details concerning the issuing company to which the securities relate, which is not public, and which, if published, would reasonably be expected to affect the stock price, regardless of the development of the price. The insider could be a Service Provider in the Netherlands who has inside information as described herein.

Given the broad scope of the definition of inside information, certain Service Providers working in the Netherlands (possibly including you) may have inside information and, thus, would be prohibited from effectuating a transaction in securities in the Netherlands at a time when you had such inside information.

NEW ZEALAND

Nature of Grant. This provision supplements the “Nature of Grant” section of the Award Agreement:

In accepting the Restricted Stock Units, you consent to participation in the Plan and acknowledge that you have received a copy of the Plan.

You understand that the Company has unilaterally, gratuitously and in its own discretion decided to grant Restricted Stock Units under the Plan to certain Service Providers throughout the world. The decision is a limited decision that is entered into upon the express assumption and condition that any grant will not bind the Company or an Affiliate, other than as set forth in the Award Agreement. Consequently, you understand that this Award is granted on the assumption and condition that this Award and any Shares acquired upon vesting of this Award are not a part of any employment contract (either with the Company or an Affiliate) and shall not be considered a mandatory benefit, salary for any purposes (including severance compensation), or any other right whatsoever. Furthermore, you understand that you will not be entitled to continue vesting in this Award once your relationship with the Company or an Affiliate as a Service Provider ceases. In addition, you understand that this Award would not be granted but for the assumptions and conditions referred to above; thus, you acknowledge and freely accept that should any or all of the assumptions be mistaken, or should any of the conditions not be met for any reason, any grant of or right to this Award shall be null and void.

Joint Election. As a condition of participation in the Plan and the vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, you agree to accept any liability for secondary Class 1 National Insurance contributions, which may be payable by the Company and/or the Employer in connection with the Restricted Stock Units, and any event giving rise to Tax-Related Items (the “Employer NICs”). Without prejudice to the foregoing, you agree to execute a joint election with the Company, the form of such joint election having been approved formally by Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs (“HMRC”) (the “Joint Election”), and any other required consent or election. You further agree to execute such other joint elections as may be required between you and any successor to the Company or the Employer. You further agree that the Company or the Employer may collect the Employer NICs from you by any of the means set forth in the “Tax Obligations” section of the Award Agreement.

If you do not enter into a Joint Election prior to the vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, you will not be entitled to vest in the Restricted Stock Units unless and until you enter into a Joint Election, and no Shares will be issued to you under the Plan, without any liability to the Company or the Employer.

Tax Obligations. The following provision supplements the “Tax Obligations” section of the Award Agreement:

You agree that, if you do not pay or the Company or the Employer does not withhold from you, the full amount of Tax-Related Items that you owe upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, or the release or assignment of the Restricted Stock Units for consideration, or the receipt of any other benefit in connection with the Restricted Stock Units (the “Taxable Event”) within 90 days after the Taxable Event, or such other period specified in Section 222(1)(c) of the U.K. Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003, the amount that should have been withheld shall constitute a loan owed by you to the Company and/or the Employer, effective 90 days after the Taxable Event. You agree that the loan will bear interest at the official HMRC rate and immediately will be due and repayable by you, and the Company and/or the Employer may recover it at any time thereafter by withholding such amount from salary, bonus or any other funds due to you by the Company or the Employer, by withholding in Shares issued upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units or from the cash proceeds from the sale of Shares or by demanding cash or a check from you. You also authorize the Company to delay the issuance of any Shares to you unless and until the loan is repaid in full.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if you are an executive officer or a director within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act, the terms of the immediately foregoing provision will not apply. In the event that you are an executive officer or a director and Tax-Related Items are not collected within 90 days of the Taxable Event, the amount of any uncollected Tax-Related Items may constitute a benefit to you on which additional income tax and National Insurance contributions may be payable. You acknowledge that you will be responsible for reporting any income tax and National Insurance contributions (including Employer NICs) due on this additional benefit directly to HMRC under the self-assessment regime.
