1. Restricted Stock Unit Award. Tupperware Brands Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Tupperware”), pursuant to the Tupperware Brands Corporation 2016 Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), a copy of which is available online at www.ubs.com/onesource/tup or by requesting a copy from the Corporate Secretary’s Office, hereby grants to the Participant as of the Date of Grant a Restricted Stock Unit Award (the “Restricted Stock Units” or “Award”) to receive from Tupperware a certain number of shares of the Common Stock of Tupperware, $0.01 par value (“Common Stock” or “Shares”) (or cash with the equivalent value) provided certain vesting conditions are met, all as specifically indicated on the grant offered to the Participant in this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement. The Award vests in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement, including applicable special terms and conditions for the Participant’s country set forth in any appendix hereto as provided in Section 20 below (the “Appendix”; this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement and the Appendix collectively referred to hereinafter as this “Agreement”). The Participant shall execute this Agreement by accepting it online at www.ubs.com/onesource/tup. If Tupperware determines that this Agreement or any other agreement from the Participant is appropriate, or required in another format, in order to comply with any listing, registration or other legal requirement, the Participant shall execute and deliver such agreement to Tupperware. The Participant’s failure to accept this Agreement or other required agreement may prevent the release of Shares or cash as described in Section 4 below. All determinations and interpretations made by Tupperware in connection with any question arising under this Agreement or the Plan are binding and conclusive upon the Participant and his or her legal representative. If there is any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the Plan, the Plan shall control. Capitalized terms used and not defined in this Agreement have the meanings given to them in the Plan.
2. Restriction Period. The restrictions under this Award shall lapse on the Vesting Dates specified above or such earlier time as set forth in this Agreement, subject to the Participant’s continued employment with Tupperware or a Subsidiary through the applicable Vesting Date or such earlier time as set forth in this Agreement.
3. Stockholder Rights. Prior to lapse of restrictions and the delivery of the Shares related to the Restricted Stock Units, the Participant shall not have the rights of a stockholder of Tupperware to vote the Shares related to the Restricted Stock Units, except that the Participant shall be entitled to receive dividend equivalent rights related to the Restricted Stock Units equal in amount to the dividends declared on a share of Common Stock. Dividend equivalent amounts shall accrue and be paid or distributed at such time as the restrictions on Restricted Stock Units lapse in accordance with this Agreement and in proportion to the amount of Restricted Stock Units as to which restrictions lapse.
4. Delivery of Shares or Cash. Subject to the payment of tax obligations under this Agreement, Tupperware will deliver or cause to be delivered either (a) Shares evidenced by certificates, or, if Tupperware so determines, in book entry form, upon lapse of restrictions, and will deliver them to the Participant or the Participant’s transferee (if permitted under the terms of the Plan and this Agreement) free of restrictions, or (b) cash based upon the number of Restricted Stock Units times the closing price on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) of a share of Common Stock on the date of the lapse of restrictions, or if such date shall not be a business day for the NYSE, then upon the closing price on the immediately-preceding business day of the NYSE. Any Shares (or cash payment in lieu of such Shares) deliverable pursuant to this Agreement shall be delivered within 60 days following the applicable Vesting Date, or as soon thereafter as administratively practicable to the extent permitted by Section 409A of the Code, if applicable.

5. Taxes. The Participant acknowledges that, regardless of any action taken by Tupperware or, if different, the Participant’s employer (the “Employer”), the ultimate liability for all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to the Participant’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to the Participant or deemed by Tupperware or the Employer in its discretion to be an appropriate charge to the Participant even if legally applicable to Tupperware or the Employer (“Tax-Related Items”) is and remains the Participant’s responsibility and may exceed the amount, if any, actually withheld by Tupperware or the Employer. The Participant further acknowledges that Tupperware 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 Award, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting or settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such settlement 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 Award or any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units to reduce or eliminate the Participant’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if the Participant is subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction, the Participant acknowledges that Tupperware 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, the Participant agrees to make adequate arrangements satisfactory to Tupperware and/or the Employer to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, the Participant authorizes Tupperware 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 the Participant’s wages or other cash compensation paid to the Participant by Tupperware and/or the Employer; or (b) withholding from proceeds of the sale of Shares acquired upon settlement of the Restricted Stock Units either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by Tupperware (on the Participant’s behalf pursuant to this authorization without further consent); or (c) withholding in Shares to be issued upon settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, provided, however that if the Participant is a Section 16 officer of Tupperware under the Exchange Act, then Tupperware will withhold in Shares upon the relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, unless the use of such withholding method is problematic under applicable tax or securities law or has materially adverse accounting consequences, in which case, the obligation for Tax-Related Items may be satisfied by one or a combination of methods (a) and (b) above. Depending on the withholding method, Tupperware may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding rates or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum applicable rates, in which case the Participant may receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash and will have no entitlement to the Share equivalent. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in Shares, for tax purposes, the Participant is deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject to the vested Restricted Stock Units, notwithstanding that a number of the Shares are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items. Finally, the Participant agrees to pay to Tupperware or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that Tupperware and/or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for as a result of the Participant’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. Tupperware may refuse to issue or deliver the Shares or the proceeds of the sale of Shares, if the Participant fails to comply with the Participant’s obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.

6. Data Transfer and Privacy. In order for Tupperware to administer this Plan, the Participant must provide Tupperware with personal data to identify the Participant, including the Participant’s name and address. The personal data may be transferred to Tupperware’s United States headquarters in Orlando, Florida, and processed there. Tupperware may transfer the personal data to an outside vendor (such as a bank) for further processing. By acceptance of this Award, the Participant explicitly consents to this collection, transfer and processing, as necessary for operation of this Plan. During each of these steps, Tupperware treats personal data with care to ensure its privacy and ensure that any outside vendors do the same. For European Union residents, the data is treated in accordance with Tupperware’s European Union Data Transfer Policy. The Participant hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of his or her personal data as described in this Agreement and any other Award materials by and among, as applicable, the Employer, and Tupperware and its subsidiaries and affiliates for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Participant’s participation in the Plan. The Participant understands that Tupperware and the Employer may hold certain personal information about the Participant, including but not limited to, the Participant’s name, home address and telephone number, email address, date of birth, social insurance number (to the extent permitted under applicable law), passport or other identification number (e.g., resident registration number), salary, nationality, job title, any Shares or directorships held in Tupperware, details of all Awards or any other entitlement to Shares or equivalent benefits awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested, purchased or outstanding in the Participant’s favor (“Data”), for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Plan. The Participant understands that Data will be transferred to any third parties assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan (such as UBS Financial Services, Inc. (“UBS”)), that these recipients may be located in the Participant’s country or elsewhere, and that the country to which Data is sent (e.g., the United States) may have different data privacy laws and protections than the Participant’s country. The Participant understands that if the Participant resides outside the United States, he or she may request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of Data by contacting the Participant’s local human resources representative. The Participant authorizes those receiving Data, including UBS or other possible recipients which may assist Tupperware (presently or in the future) with implementing, administering and managing the Plan, to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer Data, in electronic or other form, for the sole purpose of implementing, administering and managing his or her participation in the Plan, including any requisite transfer of such Data as may be required to UBS or other third party with whom the Participant may elect to deposit any Shares acquired upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units. The Participant understands that Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage the Participant’s participation in the Plan. The Participant understands that if the Participant resides outside the United States, the Participant may, at any time, view Data, request information about the storage and processing of Data, require any necessary amendments to Data or refuse or withdraw the consents herein, in any case without cost, by contacting the Participant’s local human resources representative. Further, the Participant understands that the Participant is providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis. If the Participant does not consent, or if the Participant later seeks to revoke the Participant’s consent, the Participant’s employment or service with the Employer will not be affected; the only consequence of refusing or withdrawing the Participant’s consent is that Tupperware would not be able to grant the Participant Restricted Stock Units or other equity awards or administer or maintain such awards. Therefore, the Participant understands that refusing or withdrawing the Participant’s consent may affect the Participant’s ability to participate in the Plan. For more information on the consequences of the Participant’s refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, the Participant understands that the Participant may contact the Participant’s local human resources representative.
7. Recovery of Award. In the event it is determined that Tupperware’s previously reported financial results have been misstated due to the error, omission, fraud or other misconduct of an employee of Tupperware or any of its subsidiaries (“Employee Actions”), including a misstatement that leads to a restatement of previously issued financial statements, any previous delivery of Shares which was made pursuant to any incentive compensation award, including any discretionary award, shall be subject to recovery and/or cancellation by Tupperware as the Compensation and Management Development Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors of Tupperware, in its sole discretion, shall in good faith determine. The Committee shall determine: (i) the amount to be recovered and/or cancelled; (ii) whether to seek repayment from a Participant or to reduce an amount otherwise payable to a Participant under any compensation, plan, program or arrangement maintained by Tupperware, including the use of set off, subject to applicable law; (iii) the valuation of any Shares determined to be withheld from a Participant in connection with such an action; and (iv) whether to cancel outstanding awards in connection with such an action and the valuation thereof for such purpose. The foregoing shall be subject to such changes as may be required from time to time by the NYSE listing manual or the applicable rules of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.

8. Impact of Certain Events. Upon the Participant’s death or termination after a Change of Control in accordance with Section 15.2 of the Plan, the Award shall become immediately and fully vested and shall be settled within 60 days following the Participant’s death or such termination of employment, as applicable, or as soon thereafter as administratively practicable to the extent permitted by Section 409A of the Code, if applicable. If the Participant’s employment terminates for any other reason, including disability, retirement, termination for cause (or similar concept under local law) by Tupperware or voluntary termination by the Participant, any unvested Award shall automatically terminate and be forfeited.
9. Nature of Grant. In accepting the Award, the Participant acknowledges, understands and agrees that:
(a) the Plan is established voluntarily by Tupperware, it is discretionary in nature and it may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by Tupperware at any time to the extent permitted by the Plan;
(b) the grant of the Award is exceptional, discretionary, voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of Awards, or benefits in lieu of Awards, even if Awards have been granted in the past;
(c) all decisions with respect to future Award grants, if any, will be at the sole discretion of Tupperware;
(d) the Award and the Participant’s participation in the Plan shall not create a right to employment or be interpreted as forming an employment or service contract with Tupperware, the Employer or any other subsidiary or affiliate of Tupperware and shall not interfere with the ability of Tupperware, the Employer, or any subsidiary or affiliate of Tupperware, as applicable, to terminate the Participant’s employment or service relationship (if any);
(e) the Participant is voluntarily participating in the Plan;
(f) the Award and the underlying Shares, and the income from and value of same, are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation;
(g) the Award and the underlying Shares, and the income from and value of same, are not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for purposes of calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, end-of-service payments, holiday pay, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar mandatory payments;
(h) unless otherwise agreed with Tupperware, the Award and the underlying Shares, and the income from and value of same, are not granted as consideration for, or in connection with, the service that the Participant may provide as a director of a subsidiary or affiliate of Tupperware;
(i) the future value of the underlying Shares is unknown, indeterminable and cannot be predicted with certainty;
(j) no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from forfeiture of the Award or the recovery of Shares or cash acquired pursuant to the Award resulting from the termination of the Participant’s employment or other service relationship (for any reason whatsoever, whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction where the Participant is employed or the terms of the Participant’s employment agreement, if any) and/or the application of any recovery policy as described in Section 7 hereof;
(k) for purposes of the Award, the Participant’s employment or service relationship will be considered terminated as of the date the Participant is no longer actively providing services to Tupperware or one of its subsidiaries or affiliates (regardless of the reason for such termination and whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction where the Participant is employed or the terms of the Participant’s employment agreement, if any) and unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or determined by Tupperware in accordance with the terms of the Plan, the Participant’s right to vest in the Restricted Stock Units under this Agreement, if any, will terminate as of such date and will not be extended by any notice period (e.g., the Participant’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 Participant is employed or the terms of the Participant’s employment agreement, if any); the Committee shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when the Participant is no longer actively providing services for purposes of the Award (including whether the Participant may still be considered to be providing services while on an approved leave of absence, including a period of “garden leave”);
(l) unless otherwise provided in the Plan or by Tupperware in its discretion, the Award and the benefits evidenced by this Agreement do not create any entitlement to have the Award or any such benefits transferred to, or assumed by, another company nor to be exchanged, cashed out or substituted for, in connection with any corporate transaction affecting the Shares; and
(m) the following provisions apply only if the Participant is providing services outside the United States:
(1) the Award and the underlying Shares, and the income from and value of same, are not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purpose; and
(2) the Participant acknowledges and agrees that neither Tupperware, nor the Employer nor any subsidiary or affiliate of Tupperware shall be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between the Participant’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 Participant pursuant to the settlement of the Restricted Stock Units or the subsequent sale of any Shares acquired upon settlement.

10. No Advice Regarding Grant. Tupperware is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is Tupperware making any recommendations regarding the Participant’s participation in the Plan, or the Participant’s acquisition or sale of the underlying Shares. The Participant should consult his or her own personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding his or her participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan. The Participant shall rely solely on such advisors and not on any statements or representations of Tupperware or any of its agents.
11. Protecting the Interests of Tupperware. During the Participant’s employment, and for a period of 12 months following employment, the Participant agrees not to (i) divulge information related to the operation of the business, (ii) seek or accept employment from a Competitor (defined for purposes of this provision as any other business or enterprise which is engaged in the sales of products or services similar to those of Tupperware or is engaged in the direct sales of products or services to the consuming public, or primarily to the business’ own sales force members), (iii) solicit, directly or indirectly, any actively employed employee (including persons who have been employees of Tupperware or its subsidiaries or affiliates during the 12 months immediately before and after termination of the Participant) of Tupperware or its subsidiaries or affiliates, (iv) solicit, directly or indirectly, any member of the independent sales force of Tupperware or its subsidiaries or affiliates to become an employee or independent sales force member of a Competitor, or (v) copy or counterfeit, or assist another person in copying or counterfeiting, any Tupperware Brands product. The Participant agrees to return immediately following termination of employment, any and all documents and/or hardware or software items provided by Tupperware or its subsidiaries or affiliates for the purpose of completing tasks associated with performing his or her role. Finally, the Participant acknowledges that Tupperware participates in a business that is highly competitive, and that acceptance of these terms is reasonable in light of the award of potential compensation, whether received or not, under this program. In addition to any equitable remedies that Tupperware may have with regard to this provision, a breach of this paragraph shall result in an immediate forfeiture of the Participant’s rights under this Award. The foregoing notwithstanding, nothing in this Agreement prohibits the Participant from (a) reporting possible violations of federal law or regulation to any governmental agency or entity, including but not limited to the Department of Justice, the Securities and Exchange Commission, Congress, and any agency Inspector General, (b) making other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of federal law or regulation, or (c) applying for or receiving any monetary award from a whistleblower award program of any governmental agency or entity with respect to the furnishing of information to a governmental agency or entity.
12. Violation of Terms and Recoupment. Any violation of the terms of Section 11 or default under any associated agreement shall result in an automatic termination and forfeiture of the underlying Award, and may lead Tupperware to take action to recoup damages caused by such violation.
13. Governing Law and Venue. The Award grant and the provisions of this Agreement are governed by, and subject to, the laws of the State of Delaware, as provided in the Plan. For purposes of litigating any dispute that arises directly or indirectly from the relationship of the parties evidenced by this Award or this Agreement, the parties hereby submit to and consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the State of Delaware, agree that such litigation shall be conducted exclusively in the courts of Delaware, or the federal courts for the United States located in Delaware.
14. Electronic Delivery and Acceptance. Tupperware may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related to current or future participation in the Plan by electronic means. The Participant 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 Tupperware or another third party designated by Tupperware.
15. 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.
16. Notices. All notices hereunder to Tupperware shall be delivered or mailed to the Corporate Secretary of Tupperware at its headquarters office. All notices hereunder to the Participant shall be delivered personally or mailed to the Participant’s address as indicated on his or her online UBS account, unless the Participant notifies Tupperware in writing of a change of address at ***@***.
17. Language. If the Participant has received this Agreement or any other document related to the Plan translated into a language other than English and if the meaning of translated version is different from the English version, the English version shall control.

18. Insider Trading Restrictions/Market Abuse Laws. The Participant acknowledges that the Participant may be subject to insider trading restrictions and/or market abuse laws in applicable jurisdictions, including the United States and the Participant’s country (if different), which may affect his or her ability to acquire or sell Shares or rights to Shares (e.g., the Award) under the Plan during such times as the Participant is considered to have “inside information” regarding Tupperware (as defined by the laws in the applicable jurisdictions, including the United States and the Participant’s country of residence). Any restrictions under these laws or regulations are separate from and in addition to any restrictions that may be imposed under any applicable Tupperware insider trading policy. The Participant is responsible for ensuring compliance with any applicable restrictions and should consult his or her personal legal advisor on this matter. For the avoidance of doubt, under the terms of this Agreement, the Award may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered, except as provided in Section 8 of this Agreement in the event of the Participant’s death.
19. Foreign Asset/Account Reporting; Exchange Control. The Participant’s country may have certain foreign asset and/or account reporting requirements and/or exchange controls which may affect the Participant’s ability to acquire or hold Shares under the Plan or cash received from participating in the Plan (including from any dividends received or sale proceeds arising from the sale of Shares) in a brokerage or bank account outside the Participant’s country. The Participant may be required to report such accounts, assets or transactions to the tax or other authorities in his or her country. The Participant also may be required to repatriate sale proceeds or other funds received as a result of the Participant’s participation in the Plan to his or her country through a designated bank or broker and/or within a certain time after receipt. The Participant acknowledges that it is his or her responsibility to be compliant with such regulations, and the Participant should consult his or her personal legal advisor for any details.
20. Appendix. Notwithstanding any provisions in this Agreement, the Award shall be subject to any special terms and conditions set forth in any Appendix to this Agreement for the Participant’s country. Moreover, if the Participant relocates to one of the countries included in the Appendix, the special terms and conditions for such country shall apply to the Participant, to the extent that Tupperware determines that the application of such terms and conditions is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons. The Appendix constitutes part of this Agreement.
21. Imposition of Other Requirements. Tupperware reserves the right to impose other requirements on the Participant’s participation in the Plan, on the Award and on any Shares acquired under the Plan, to the extent that Tupperware determines it is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons and to require the Participant to sign any additional agreement or undertaking that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing.
22. Compliance with Law. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or this Agreement, unless there is an available exemption from any registration, qualification or other legal requirement applicable to the Shares, Tupperware shall not be required to deliver any Shares issuable upon settlement of the Restricted Stock Units prior to the completion of any registration or qualification of the Shares under any local, state, federal or foreign securities or exchange control law or under rulings or regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission or of any other governmental regulatory body, or prior to obtaining any approval or other clearance from any local, state, federal or foreign governmental agency, which registration, qualification or approval Tupperware shall, in its absolute discretion, deem necessary or advisable. The Participant understands that Tupperware is under no obligation to register or qualify the Shares with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission or any state or foreign securities commission or to seek approval or clearance from any governmental authority for the issuance or sale of the Shares. Further, Tupperware shall have unilateral authority to amend the Plan and the Agreement without the Participant’s consent to the extent necessary to comply with securities or other laws applicable to issuance of Shares.
23. Waiver. The Participant acknowledges that a waiver by Tupperware 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 any subsequent breach by the Participant or any other participant.

24. Code Section 409A. This Award is intended to be exempt from or comply with Section 409A of the Code, and shall be interpreted and construed accordingly. To the extent this Agreement provides for the Award to become vested and be settled upon the Participant’s termination of employment, the applicable Shares shall be transferred to the Participant or his or her beneficiary upon the Participant’s “separation from service,” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Award, to the extent any payments hereunder constitute nonqualified deferred compensation, within the meaning of Section 409A, then (A) each such payment which is conditioned upon Participant’s execution of a release and which is to be paid or provided during a designated period that begins in one taxable year and ends in a second taxable year, shall be paid or provided in the later of the two taxable years and (B) if Participant is a specified employee (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code) as of the date of Participant’s separation from service, each such payment that is payable upon Participant’s separation from service and would have been paid prior to the six-month anniversary of Participant’s separation from service, shall be delayed until the earlier to occur of (i) the first day of the seventh month following Participant’s separation from service or (ii) the date of Participant’s death.
The parties confirm this Agreement effective as of the Date of Grant and have executed it on the date it was accepted online.

TUPPERWARE BRANDS CORPORATION
2016 INCENTIVE PLAN
RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT
TERMS AND CONDITIONS
This Appendix includes additional terms and conditions that govern the Award of Restricted Stock Units under the Plan if the Participant is or becomes subject to the laws of any of the countries listed below. Certain capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Plan and/or the applicable Restricted Stock Unit Agreement (the “Agreement”).
NOTIFICATIONS
This Appendix also contains notifications relating to exchange control and certain other issues of which the Participant should be aware with respect to his or her participation in the Plan. The information is based on the exchange control, securities or other laws or regulations in effect in the countries listed in this Appendix as of October 2016. Such laws are often complex and change frequently. Because the information may be outdated when the Participant vests in the Award and acquires Shares, or when the Participant subsequently sells Shares acquired under the Plan, Tupperware strongly recommends that the Participant not rely on the notifications provided in this Appendix as the only source of information relating to the participation in the Plan.
In addition, the notifications are general in nature and may not apply to the Participant’s particular situation, and Tupperware is not in a position to assure the Participant of any particular result. Accordingly, the Participant should seek appropriate professional advice as to how relevant laws in the Participant’s country may apply to the Participant’s particular situation. Finally, if the Participant is a citizen or resident of a country other than the one in which he or she is currently working and/or residing, is considered a resident of another country for local law purposes or transfers employment and/or moves to a different country after the Date of Grant, the information contained in this Appendix may not be applicable to the Participant and Tupperware shall, in its sole discretion, determined to what extent the terms and conditions or notifications contained herein shall be applicable to the Participant.
ARGENTINA
TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Taxes. The following provision supplements Section 5 of the Agreement:
The Participant understands and agrees that Tupperware and/or the Employer may withhold the entire amount of Tax-Related Items due upon vesting of any portion of the Award, provided the amount withheld does not exceed any local withholding limitations on the total cash proceeds due to the Participant at that time. The withholding of the Tax-Related Items will not be allocated over the months remaining in the tax year following vesting, but will occur in a single withholding event at each of the vesting dates of any portion of the Award.
Nature of Grant. The following provision supplements Section 9 of the Agreement:
By accepting the Award, the Participant acknowledges and agrees that the grant of Award is made by Tupperware (not by the Employer) in its sole discretion and that the value of the Restricted Stock Units or any Shares acquired under the Plan shall not constitute salary or wages for any purpose under Argentine labor law, including, but not limited to, the calculation of (i) any labor benefits including, without limitation, vacation pay, thirteenth month salary, compensation in lieu of notice, annual bonus, disability, and leave of absence payments, etc., or (ii) any termination or severance indemnities or similar payments. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, any benefits under the Plan are considered as salary or wages for any purpose under Argentine labor law, the Participant acknowledges and agrees that such benefits shall not accrue more frequently than on each vesting date.

NOTIFICATIONS
Securities Law Notification. Neither the Restricted Stock Units nor the issuance of the Shares are publicly offered or listed on any stock exchange in Argentina and, as a result, have not been and will not be registered with the Argentine Securities Commission (Comisión Nacional de Valores, “CNV”). The offer is private and not subject to the supervision of any Argentine governmental authority. Neither this nor any other offering material related to the Award or the underlying Shares may be utilized in connection with any general offering to the public in Argentina. Argentine residents who acquire Shares under the Plan do so according to the terms of a private offering made from outside Argentina.
Exchange Control Information. Following the sale of Shares or receipt of dividends paid on Shares, Argentine residents may be subject to certain restrictions in bringing such funds back into Argentina. The Argentine bank handling the transaction may request certain documentation in connection with the Participant’s request to transfer proceeds into Argentina, including evidence of the sale or dividend payment and proof of the source of funds used to acquire Shares. The Participant is solely responsible for complying with the exchange control rules that may apply in connection with participation in the Plan and/or the transfer of proceeds acquired under the Plan into Argentina. Prior to transferring proceeds into Argentina, the Participant should consult the local bank and/or a personal legal advisor to confirm the exchange control rules and required documentation for any transfer of funds into or out of Argentina, as interpretations of the applicable Central Bank regulations vary by bank, and exchange control rules and regulations are subject to change without notice.
Foreign Asset/Account Reporting Information. Shares acquired under the Plan and held outside Argentina must be reported on December 31st of each year on the Argentine annual tax return for that year. In addition, the acquisition, sale, transfer or other disposal of Shares must be registered with the Argentine Federal Tax Administration.
Stamp Tax. A stamp tax may apply upon execution of Plan documents (e.g., this Agreement). The tax is paid upon execution of the documents and both the rate and the term for payment will depend on the particular province.
Bank Tax. Proceeds transferred into Argentina may be subject to the Tax on Checking Accounts (“Bank Tax”), which is imposed on funds transferred to or from bank accounts in Argentina. The Participant should speak with a personal tax advisor to determine the Participant’s obligations with respect to the Bank Tax and whether the Participant may be eligible for an exemption from the Bank Tax.

2016 INCENTIVE PLAN
RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT
Securities Law Notification. The Participant acknowledges that the Award, the Agreement, the Plan and all other materials the Participant may receive regarding participation in the Plan do not constitute advertising or an offering of securities in Russia. The Shares acquired pursuant to the Plan have not and will not be registered in Russia nor admitted for listing on any Russian exchange for trading within Russia, and therefore, neither the Award nor the Shares may be used for offering or public or private circulation in Russia. The Participant acknowledges that he or she may hold Shares acquired upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units in the Participant’s account with Tupperware’s third party broker/administrator in the United States. However, in no event will Shares issued to the Participant under the Plan be delivered to Participant in Russia. Further, the Participant is not permitted to sell or otherwise dispose of Shares directly to other Russian individuals.
Data Transfer and Privacy. The following provision supplements Section 6 of the Agreement:
The Participant understands and agrees that he or she must complete and return a Consent to Processing of Personal Data (the “Consent”) form to Tupperware. Further, the Participant understands and agrees that if the Participant does not complete and return a Consent form to Tupperware, Tupperware will not be able to grant Restricted Stock Units to the Participant or other awards or administer or maintain such awards. Therefore, the Participant understands that refusing to complete a Consent form or withdrawing his or her consent may affect the Participant’s ability to participate in the Plan.
Notifications
Exchange Control Information. Proceeds from the sale of Shares must be repatriated to Russia within a reasonably short period after receipt. The sale proceeds must be initially credited to the Participant through a foreign currency account opened in the Participant’s name at an authorized bank in Russia. After the funds are initially received in Russia, they may be further remitted to a foreign bank in accordance with Russian exchange control laws. As an exception, dividends (but not dividend equivalents) do not need to be remitted to a Russian resident Participant’s bank account in Russia but instead can be remitted directly to a foreign individual bank account (in countries belonging to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (“OECD”) or the Financial Action Task Force (“FATF”)). Certain other exemptions to these requirements may be available or may become available in the future. The Participant should consult his or her personal legal advisor before Restricted Stock Units vest, before Shares are sold and before any sale proceeds are remitted to Russia, as significant sanctions for violations of the Russian currency control laws may apply and exchange control requirements are subject to change at any time, often without notice.
Foreign Asset/Account Reporting Information. The Russian tax authorities must be notified within one month of the opening or closing of a foreign bank account, or of a change in foreign bank account details. Reports of the transactions and balances of foreign bank accounts must also be filed with the Russian tax authorities each year.
Labor Law Information. If the Participant continues to hold Shares acquired at vesting of the Restricted Stock Units after an involuntary termination of the Participant’s Service, the Participant will not be eligible to receive unemployment benefits in Russia.
Anti-Corruption Information. Anti-corruption laws prohibit certain public servants, their spouses and their dependent children from owning any foreign source financial instruments (e.g., shares of foreign companies such as Tupperware). Accordingly, the Participant should inform Tupperware if the Participant is covered by these laws because the Participant may not hold Shares acquired under the Plan.

The Participant understands and agrees that, as a condition of the grant of the Award, except as provided for in Section 8 of the Agreement, the termination of the Participant’s employment for any reason (including for the reasons listed below) will automatically result in the forfeiture and loss of the Shares that have not vested on the date of termination.

Furthermore, the Participant understands that Tupperware has unilaterally, gratuitously and discretionally decided to grant Restricted Stock Units under the Plan to individuals who may be employees of Tupperware or any subsidiary or affiliate of Tupperware throughout the world. The decision is a limited decision that is entered into upon the express assumption and condition that any grant will not economically or otherwise bind Tupperware or any subsidiary or affiliate of Tupperware on an ongoing basis. Consequently, the Participant understands that the Award is granted on the assumption and condition that the Award and the Shares issued upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units shall not become a part of any employment or other contract (with Tupperware, the Employer, or any subsidiary or affiliate of Tupperware) and shall not be considered a mandatory benefit, salary for any purposes (including severance compensation) or any other right whatsoever. In addition, the Participant understands that the Award would not be made to the Participant but for the assumptions and conditions referred to above; thus, the Participant acknowledges and freely accepts that should any or all of the assumptions be mistaken or should any of the conditions not be met for any reason, then any Award grant shall be null and void.
