ANNEX 1

Additional Terms and Conditions of the Restricted Share Award Agreement

for Awards Outside the United States

This Annex 1 includes additional terms and conditions that govern the Restricted Shares granted in the countries identified below. These terms are general in nature and based on the securities, tax and other laws in effect as of February 2010. Such laws are often complex and subject to frequent change. As such, the Company strongly recommends that you do not rely on this summary as your only source of information relating to the consequences of your Restricted Share Award and participation in the Plan and further that you consult your personal tax or legal advisors for advice as to how the laws in your country apply to your situation. Finally, note that if you are a citizen or resident of a country other than the one in which you are working, additional requirements, other than those described herein, may be applicable to you.

All Restricted Share Awards Outside the United States. For awards of Restricted Shares to Grantees outside the United States, the following additional terms apply:

 

A. Nature of Award.

 

  i. The Restricted Shares are an extraordinary item that do not constitute compensation of any kind for services of any kind rendered for the Company or any Affiliate and which are outside the scope of the Grantee’s employment contract, if any;

 

  ii. The Restricted Shares are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation;

 

  iii. The Restricted Shares are not part of fixed, normal or expected compensation, salary or terms of employment for any purposes, including, without limitation, calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, end-of-service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar payments and in no event should be considered as compensation for, or relating in any way to, past services for the Company, any Subsidiary employing the Grantee or any Affiliate thereof; and

 

  iv. Nothing in this Agreement or the Plan shall confer or otherwise give rise to any acquired rights and the Grantee’s acceptance and acknowledgment of this award shall constitute a waiver of any and all claims to the contrary.

 

Annex 1-1


B. Section 4 of the Agreement is amended to include the following additional subsection at the end thereof:

“(d) No Acquired Rights. In the event of termination of the Grantee’s employment (whether or not in breach of local labor laws), the Grantee’s right to vest in the Restricted Shares under the Plan, if any, will, except as expressly provided in this Agreement or in the Plan, terminate effective as of the date that the Grantee is no longer actively employed and will not be extended by any notice period (e.g., a period of “garden leave”) mandated under local law. In consideration of the award, the Grantee irrevocably releases the Company (and any Subsidiary employing the Grantee) and any Affiliate thereof from any claim or entitlement to compensation or damages arising from forfeiture of the Restricted Shares resulting from termination of the Grantee’s employment.”

 

C. Data Privacy.

The Grantee hereby explicitly consents to the collection, processing, transmission and storage, in any form whatsoever, of any data of a professional or personal nature described in this Agreement, the Plan and any other grant materials by and among as applicable, the Company, a Subsidiary employing the Grantee or any Affiliates thereof that is necessary, in the discretion of the Company, for the purposes of implementing, administering and managing the Grantee’s participation in the Plan. The Company may share such information with any party located in the United States or elsewhere, including any trustee, registrar, administrative agent, broker, stock plan service provider or any other person assisting the Company with the implementation, administration, and management of this Restricted Share Award and the Plan. The Grantee thus authorizes the Company and its Affiliates and any possible recipients described herein to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the data in electronic or other form, for the sole purpose described herein. The Grantee understands that he or she may refuse or withdraw such consent or authorization without cost by contacting his or her local human resources representative; provided, however, that the Grantee understands that such refusal or withdrawal may affect his or her ability to participate in the Plan.
