Vesting.

Vesting and Forfeiture. Any Award which has become payable pursuant to the performance measures set forth in Section 4 shall be considered as fully earned by you, subject to the further provisions of this Section 3. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Award Agreement to the contrary, any Award will be forfeited back to Tyson in the event of: (i) your Termination of Employment before the Vesting Date, except as otherwise provided in Sections 3.2 through 3.4, or (ii) the failure to satisfy any of the performance measures provided in Section 4.

Death, Disability or Retirement. In the event your Termination of Employment is due to death, Disability or Retirement before the Vesting Date, you will be entitled to a pro rata portion of the Award if the applicable performance measures set forth in Section 4 are satisfied. The pro rata portion of the Award shall be determined by multiplying the amount of the Award that you would have received had you remained employed until the Vesting Date by a fraction, the numerator of which is number of days during which you remained employed by Tyson and/or its affiliates from the Grant Date and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the Vesting Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if there is a Change in Control prior to the Final Measurement Date, payment of the Award will be based on performance at the level determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.4.

Termination by Tyson without Cause or by you for Good Reason. In the event of your Termination of Employment by Tyson other than for Cause or by you for Good Reason before the Vesting Date, you will become entitled to a pro rata portion of the Award if the applicable performance measures set forth in Section 4 are satisfied contingent upon your timely execution and non-revocation of a Release. The pro rata portion of the Award shall by determined by multiplying the amount of the Award that you would have received had you remained employed until the Vesting Date by a fraction, the numerator of which is number of days during which you remained employed by Tyson and/or its affiliates from the Grant Date and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the Vesting Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if there is a Change in Control prior to the Final

Change in Control. Following a Change in Control that occurs during the Measurement Period, the requirement that you not experience a Termination of Employment prior to the Vesting Date will be excused upon the occurrence of either of the following events, provided such event occurs no later than twenty-four (24) months following the Change in Control (but prior to the last day of the Measurement Period): (i) you experience a Termination of Employment by Tyson without Cause or (ii) you resign from your employment on account of Good Reason. If vested, you will be entitled to payment of the Award pursuant to this Section 3.4 based on whichever of the following produces the greater result:  (x) the target level of performance set forth in Section 4(iii), or (y) the actual level of performance determined as of the effective date of the Change in Control, with such actual level measured against the performance benchmarks set forth in Section 4 as adjusted on a pro-rata basis to reflect the period of time elapsed between the Initial Measurement Date and the effective date of the Change in Control (with such proration consideration being for the determination of actual results only, as the Award itself will not be prorated in the event payment is commenced under this Section 3.4).

Performance Measures. The extent, if any, to which you shall have the right to payment of the Award shall depend upon your satisfying one of the continuous employment conditions set forth in Section 3 and the extent to which the applicable performance measure has been satisfied as of the Final Measurement Date, as specified below:

Payment of Award. The Performance Shares that may become payable pursuant to this Award Agreement shall be based upon the highest performance determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 4 or, in the event of a Change in Control prior to the Final Measurement Date, based on performance at the level determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.4. In other words, the attainment of multiple performance measures under this Award Agreement will not result in the payment of a cumulative number of Performance Shares for each performance measure achieved. Payment of the Award, to the extent earned, shall be made as follows:

Prior to a Change in Control. If the Final Measurement Date occurs prior to a Change in Control, the Award will be settled in shares of Tyson Class A common stock no later than seventy (70) days after the Final Measurement Date.

On and After a Change in Control. If a Change in Control occurs on or prior to the Final Measurement Date, payment of the Award, to the extent earned, will be made no later than seventy (70) days after the later of the effective date of the Change in Control or your Termination of Employment. If Tyson Foods, Inc. is the surviving entity, the Award will be settled in shares of Tyson Class A common stock. If Tyson Foods, Inc. is not the surviving entity, the Award will be settled either (i) in the number and class of shares of capital stock of the successor entity into which each outstanding share of Tyson Class A common stock has been converted pursuant to such Change in Control, unless the Committee determines in its sole discretion to settle the Award in cash; or (ii) if shareholders of Tyson Foods, Inc. receive consideration other than in shares of capital stock of the successor entity, such other consideration received by shareholders of Tyson Foods, Inc. or in cash, as the Committee may determine in its sole discretion.

By accepting the Award, you acknowledge and agree that you are responsible for all applicable income and other taxes, as well as any social insurance contributions and other deductions or withholdings required by applicable law, from any Award, including federal, FICA, state and local taxes applicable in your country of residence or employment. Tyson shall withhold taxes by any manner acceptable or administratively feasible under the terms of the Plan, but not to exceed the maximum tax due for the applicable income you receive from the Award, consistent with the laws of the applicable federal, state or local taxing authority.

Severability. In the event that any one or more of the provisions or a portion thereof contained in this Award Agreement shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect, the same shall not invalidate or otherwise affect any other provision of this Award Agreement, and this Award Agreement shall be construed as if the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or portion thereof had never been contained herein.

Entire Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, this Award Agreement expresses the entire understanding and agreement of Tyson and you with respect to the subject matter. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the terms of this Award Agreement and the terms applicable to stock incentive awards set forth in any employment agreement, offer letter, or other agreement or arrangement that you have entered into with Tyson and/or its affiliates, the former will always control. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of the Plan and the terms of this Award Agreement, the provisions of the Plan will control unless this Award Agreement explicitly states that an exception to the Plan is being made. The Award has been made pursuant to the Plan and an administrative record is maintained by the Committee.

Restrictions on Transfer of Award. You shall not dispose of the Award prior to the date unrestricted, vested shares in your name are delivered to you by Tyson pursuant to Section 5. Any disposition of the Award or any portion thereof shall be a violation of the terms of this Award Agreement and shall be void and without effect; provided, however, that this provision shall not preclude a transfer as otherwise permitted by the Plan.

Headings. Paragraph headings used herein are for convenience of reference only and shall not be considered in construing this Award Agreement.

Specific Performance. In the event of any actual or threatened default in, or breach of, any of the terms, conditions and provisions of this Award Agreement, the party or parties who are thereby aggrieved shall have the right to specific performance and an injunction in addition to any and all other rights and remedies at law or in equity, and all such rights and remedies shall be cumulative.

No Vested Right in Future Awards. You acknowledge and agree that the granting of the Award under this Award Agreement is made on a fully discretionary basis by Tyson and that this Award Agreement does not confer a vested right to further awards of any type in the future. Further, the Award set forth in this Award Agreement constitutes a non-recurrent benefit and the terms of this Award Agreement are applicable only to the Award granted pursuant to this Award Agreement.

No Right to Continued Employment. You acknowledge and agree (through electronic acknowledgment and acceptance of this Award Agreement) that neither the adoption of the Plan nor the granting of any award shall confer any right to continued employment with Tyson, nor shall it interfere in any way with Tyson’s right to terminate your employment at any time for any reason in accordance with the terms of your Employment Agreement.

Governing Law. The Plan, this Award Agreement and all determinations made and actions taken pursuant to the Plan or Award Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Arkansas, without giving effect to the conflict of laws principles thereof.

Successors and Assigns. This Award Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon each successor and assign of Tyson. To the extent applicable, references to Tyson herein shall be deemed to include a reference any such successor. All obligations imposed upon you, and all rights granted to Tyson hereunder, shall be binding upon your heirs, successors and administrators.

Section 409A. It is the intent of Tyson that any payment pursuant to the Award be exempt from Code Section 409A, to the maximum extent permitted. However, if any such payment is considered to be “nonqualified deferred compensation” subject to Code Section 409A, such payment will be paid and provided in a manner, and at such time and form, as complies with the applicable requirements of Code Section 409A to avoid the unfavorable tax consequences provided therein for non-compliance. To the extent that some portion of any payment under this Award may be bifurcated and treated as exempt from Code Section 409A under the “short-term deferral” or “separation pay” exemptions, then such amounts may be so treated as exempt.
