NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS AGREED, by and between the Company and Grantee, as
follows:

 

1. Awards Of Restricted Stock

 

1.1 The Company hereby grants to Grantee an award of <# of SHARES> Shares of

provisions of the Plan (the provisions of which are incorporated herein by
reference) and, except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, the capitalized
terms used in this Agreement shall have the same definitions as set forth in the
Plan.

 

2. Restrictions

 

Subject to Sections 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4 and 2.5 below, if Grantee remains
employed by the Company, the Grantee shall become vested in the following
manner:

 

Cliff vests on                     ,                      for active employees
after results are available for the Company’s financial performance for
                    ,                      and                      and if the
following Performance Requirements have been met or exceeded:

 

  •   The company’s cumulative diluted Earnings per Share for the measurement
years (                    ) must either be $             or more representing a
            % compound annual growth rate from continuing operations.
Determination of this earnings growth will be based upon GAAP in effect on the
date of the grant. Adjustments to achievement of this earning per share target
may be made by the Compensation Committee as they deem it appropriate.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If the above conditions are not met, the shares will vest for active employees
on                     .

 

2.1 In the event prior to the Vesting Date, Grantee dies while actively employed
by the Company, the unvested Shares of Restricted Stock shall become fully
vested and non-forfeitable as of the date of Grantee’s death. The Company shall
transfer vested Shares of Restricted Stock, free and clear of any restrictions
imposed by this Agreement (except for Section 3.4) to Grantee’s surviving spouse
or, if none, to his estate), as soon as practical after his or her date of
death.

 

In the event of Grantee’s Retirement from the Company or termination of
employment by reason of Disability, the vesting of the Restricted Stock shall
continue as if Grantee continued to be an active employee, subject to the
individual’s agreement not to do anything that would be harmful to the Company,
and to be available to perform reasonable services for the Company as a
consultant on reasonable terms and conditions through the vesting date of the
grant, and subject to the conditions that the participant does not commence
employment with a competitor of the Company, does not engage in solicitation of
the Company’s employees, customers or suppliers, and does not disclose the
Company’s confidential information or trade secrets, the grant continues to vest
on the above schedule following retirement or permanent long-term disability. In
the event that any of the above conditions are not met, all unvested restricted
stock under this grant will be forfeited by the participant.

 

2.2 “Retirement” means Grantee’s termination of employment with the Company or a
Subsidiary (other than by the Company or a Subsidiary for Cause) at a time when
Grantee is eligible for immediate payment of benefits under Grantee’s applicable
defined benefit retirement plan, if any, or in the absence of an applicable
defined benefit retirement plan, as determined by the Committee. “Disability”
means the termination of employment resulting from Grantee’s total and permanent
disability, confirmed by the statement of a licensed physician chosen or
approved by the Committee. If Grantee dies after Retirement or after incurring a
Disability under this Section 2.2, but prior to the vesting of the Shares of
Restricted Stock, then the unvested Restricted Stock shall become fully vested
and non-forfeitable as of the date of Grantee’s death.

 

2.3 Except for death as provided in Section 2.1, Retirement or Disability as
provided in Section 2.2, a Change in Control as provided in Section 2.4, or
unless the Committee in its sole discretion determines otherwise with respect to
all or any portion of the Shares of Restricted Stock, if Grantee terminates his
employment or if the Company terminates Grantee prior to the Vesting Date, all
unvested Shares of Restricted Stock shall be immediately forfeited.

 

2.4 Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Agreement, in the event of a
Change in Control of Certegy Inc. prior to the Vesting Date, all unvested Shares
of Restricted Stock shall become fully vested and non-forfeitable as of the date
of the Change in Control. In the discretion of the Committee, on the first
business day following the date of the Change in Control, the Company shall
deliver to Grantee a cash payment representing the Fair Market Value of the
Shares of Restricted Stock as of the date of the Change in Control in lieu of
delivering the Shares.

otherwise encumbered prior to the date Grantee becomes vested in the Restricted
Stock.

declared on such Restricted Stock and Grantee shall be entitled to vote such
Restricted Stock, provided that these rights shall cease in the event such
Restricted Stock is forfeited.

or other securities that Grantee shall be entitled to, and shall hold, pursuant
to this Agreement, shall be appropriately adjusted or changed as determined by
the Committee to reflect the Change in Capitalization, provided that any such
additional Shares or additional or different shares or securities shall remain
subject to the restrictions in this Agreement.

 

3.4 Grantee represents and warrants that he or she is acquiring the Restricted
Stock for investment purposes only, and not with a view to distribution thereof.

employment at any time.

Grantee shall be responsible for all federal, state, and local taxes payable
with respect to this award of Restricted Stock and dividends paid on unvested
Restricted Stock. Grantee shall have the right to make such elections under the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, as are available in connection with
this award of Restricted Stock. The Company and Grantee agree to report the
value of the Restricted Stock in a consistent manner for federal income tax
purposes. The Company shall have the right to retain and withhold from any
payment of Restricted Stock or cash the amount of taxes required by any
governmental authority to be withheld or otherwise deducted and paid with
respect to such payment. At its discretion, the Company may require Grantee to
reimburse the Company for any such taxes required to be withheld and may
withhold any distribution in whole or in part until the Company is so
reimbursed. In lieu thereof, the Company shall have the right to withhold from
any other cash amounts due to Grantee an amount equal to such taxes required to
be withheld or withhold and cancel (in whole or in part) a number of Shares of
Restricted Stock having a market value not less than the amount of such taxes.
