shall acquire, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Number of
Restricted Stock Units set forth in the Grant Notice, subject to adjustment as
provided in Section 3.3 and Section 7. Each Unit represents a right to receive

3.3    Dividend Equivalent Units. On the date that the Company pays a cash
dividend to holders of Stock generally, the Participant shall be credited with a
number of additional whole Dividend Equivalent Units determined by dividing (a)
the product of (i) the dollar amount of the cash dividend paid per share of
Stock on such date and (ii) the total number of Restricted Stock Units and
Dividend Equivalent Units credited to the Participant pursuant to the Award as
of the date on which such dividend was declared, by (b) the Fair Market Value
per share of Stock on such date. Such additional Dividend Equivalent Units shall
be subject to the same terms and conditions and shall be vested or forfeited in
the same manner and at the same time as the Restricted Stock Units originally
subject to the Award with respect to which they have been credited.
4.
VESTING OF UNITS.

4.1    Normal Vesting. Except as provided in this Section 4, the Units shall
vest and become Vested Units as provided in the Grant Notice, subject to the
Participant’s continued Service through the applicable vesting date.
4.2    Death and Disability. Notwithstanding anything in the Grant Notice, any
Units that are outstanding and unvested shall vest and become Vested Units upon
Participant’s death or termination of Service as a result of Disability, whether
occurring prior to, on or following a Change in Control.
4.3    Involuntary Termination or Retirement Outside a Change in Control Period.
Notwithstanding anything in the Grant Notice, any Units that are outstanding and
unvested upon the Participant’s Involuntary Termination or Retirement, in each
case occurring outside a Change

2

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

in Control Period (the “Post-Termination Units”), shall not terminate, but will
remain eligible to become vested on the applicable dates set forth in the Grant
Notice as if the Participant’s Service had not terminated; provided that (i) the
Participant signs the Release and any revocation period with respect thereto
expires without revocation within 60 days following the date of termination,
(ii) the settlement of the tranche of Units that would first vest following the
termination date if the Participant had remained in Service shall occur on the
latest of (1) the applicable vesting date set forth in the Grant Notice, (2) the
date the Release becomes effective and (3) the 60th day following the date of
termination, if the 60 day period referenced in this Section 4.3 in respect of
the Release begins in one calendar year and ends in another and (iii) all of the
Post-Termination Awards will be canceled immediately if any of the following
events occur at any time before the applicable vesting date set forth in the
Grant Notice:
(a)    The Participant acts in any manner that the Committee determines is
contrary or materially harmful to the interests of the Company or any of its
subsidiaries;
(b)    During the 12-month period following termination of Service, the
Participant fails to comply with any restrictive covenants to which the
Participant is subject;
(c)    The Participant encourages or solicits any employee, consultant, or
contractor of the Company or its affiliates to leave or diminish their
relationship with the Company for any reason or to accept employment,
consultancy or a contracting relationship with any other company;
(d)    The Participant, directly or indirectly, encourages or solicits or
attempts to encourage or solicit any customers, clients, partners or affiliates
of the Company to terminate or diminish their relationship with the Company;
(e)    The Participant disparages the Company or its officers, directors,
employees, products or services;
(f)    The Participant misuses or discloses the Company’s confidential or
Proprietary Information, breaches any proprietary information, confidentiality
agreement or any other agreement between the Participant and the Company (or any
of its affiliates), or breaches any release of claims executed by the
Participant in connection with the Participant’s termination of Service;
(g)    The Participant fails or refuses to cooperate with or assist the Company
in a timely manner in connection with any investigation, regulatory matter,
lawsuit or arbitration in which the Company is a subject, target or party and as
to which the Participant may have pertinent information; or

3

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

(h)    The Company determines that the Participant’s Service could have been
terminated for Cause (regardless of any “cure” periods) or that the
Participant’s actions or omissions during Service caused a restatement of the
Company’s financial statements or constituted a violation of the Company’s
policies and standards.
Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Section 4.3 to the contrary, the
Post-Termination Awards shall become fully vested and settled upon the death of
the Participant or upon a Change in Control that constitutes a “a change in
ownership”, a “change in effective control”, or a “change in the ownership of a
substantial portion of the assets” of the Company under Section 409A and the
Section 409A Regulations (a “409A Change in Control”).
4.4    Certain Events Occurring During a Change in Control Period.
Notwithstanding anything in the Grant Notice, any Units that are outstanding and
unvested upon the commencement of a Change in Control Period shall not
terminate, but will remain eligible to become vested on the applicable dates set
forth in the Grant Notice; provided that if (i) either (1) the Participant’s
Service terminates as a result of an Involuntary Termination during a Change in
Control Period or (2) the Participant is or becomes Retirement-Eligible during a
Change in Control Period and (ii) the Participant signs the Release and any
revocation period with respect thereto expires without revocation within 60 days
following the date of the applicable event, then any Units that are outstanding
and unvested as of the date of such applicable event shall become Vested Units
and shall be settled in full on the date the Release becomes effective.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (a) the applicable event referenced in this
Section 4.4 occurs during a Change in Control Period but prior to a 409A Change
in Control, then to the extent necessary to avoid accelerated taxation or tax
penalties under Section 409A, the Units will be settled on the same Vesting
Dates on which such settlement would have occurred if the Participant remained
in Service and (b) if the 60 day period referenced in this Section 4.4 in
respect of the Release begins in one calendar year and ends in another, then the
RSUs will be settled in the second calendar year.
4.5    Termination for Cause. If the Participant’s Service is terminated for
Cause, then all of the then-outstanding and unvested Units shall immediately be
forfeited and cancelled without the payment of any consideration to the
Participant.
4.6    Termination for Any Other Reason. If the Participant’s Service terminates
while any of the Units are unvested for any reason not set forth in this Section
4, then all of the then-outstanding and unvested Units shall be immediately
cancelled and forfeited without the payment of any consideration to the
Participant unless the Committee determines to provide for the vesting and
settlement of all or some of such Units in its sole discretion.
5.
SETTLEMENT OF THE AWARD.

4

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

5.1    Issuance of Shares of Stock. Subject to the provisions of Section 5.3
below, the Company shall issue to the Participant, on the Settlement Date with
respect to each Unit to be settled on such date, one (1) share of Stock;
provided however, that if such Settlement Date is a date on which a sale by the
Participant of the Stock to be issued in settlement of such Unit would violate
the Insider Trading Policy of the Company, then the Settlement Date with respect
to such Unit shall be the earlier of (a) the next day on which such sale would
not violate the Insider Trading Policy or (b) the last date on which such
issuance may be made without incurring accelerated taxation or tax penalties
under Section 409A. For purposes of this Section, “Insider Trading Policy” means
the written policy of the Company pertaining to the sale, transfer or other
disposition of the Company’s equity securities by members of the Board, Officers
or other employees who may possess material, non-public information regarding
the Company, as in effect at the time of a disposition of any shares of Stock.
Shares of Stock issued in settlement of Units shall not be subject to any
restriction on transfer other than any such restriction as may be required
pursuant to Section 5.3.
5.2    Beneficial Ownership of Shares; Certificate Registration. The Participant
hereby authorizes the Company, in its sole discretion, to deposit for the
benefit of the Participant with any broker with which the Participant has an
account relationship of which the Company has notice any or all shares acquired
by the Participant pursuant to the settlement of the Award. Except as provided
by the preceding sentence, a certificate for the shares settled under the Award
shall be registered in the name of the Participant, or, if applicable, in the
names of the heirs of the Participant.
5.3    Restrictions on Grant of the Award and Issuance of Shares. The grant of
the Award and issuance of shares of Stock upon settlement of the Award shall be
subject to compliance with all applicable requirements of federal, state or
foreign law with respect to such securities. No shares of Stock may be issued
hereunder if the issuance of such shares would constitute a violation of any
applicable federal, state or foreign securities laws or other law or regulations
or the requirements of any stock exchange or market system upon which the Stock
may then be listed. The inability of the Company to obtain from any regulatory
body having jurisdiction the authority, if any, deemed by the Company’s legal
counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance of any shares subject to the
Award shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to
issue such shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been
obtained. As a condition to the settlement of the Award, the Company may require
the Participant to satisfy any qualifications that may be necessary or
appropriate, to evidence compliance with any applicable law or regulation and to
make any representation or warranty with respect thereto as may be requested by
the Company.
5.4    Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue fractional
shares upon the settlement of the Award.

5

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

6.
TAX WITHHOLDING AND OTHER TAX ISSUES.

6.1    In General. Regardless of any action the Company and/or the Participating
Company employing the Participant (the “Employer”) take with respect to any or
all income tax (including the U.S. federal, state and local tax and/or non-U.S.
tax), social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related
withholding (the “Tax-Related Items”), the Participant acknowledges that the
ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by the Participant is
and remains the Participant’s responsibility and that the Company and/or the
Employer (i) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of
any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Award, including the
grant or vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, the subsequent sale of any
shares of Stock acquired upon vesting and the receipt of any dividends or
Dividend Equivalent Units; and (ii) do not commit to structure the terms of the
grant or any aspect of the Award to reduce or eliminate Participant’s liability
for Tax-Related Items.
6.2    Withholding Methods. Prior to the relevant taxable event, the Participant
shall pay or make arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer
to satisfy all withholding and payment on account obligations of the Company
and/or the Employer. In this regard, if permissible under local law, the
Participant authorizes the Company and/or the Employer, at its discretion, to
satisfy the obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items legally payable by
the Participant by one or a combination of the following: (a) withholding from
the Participant’s wages or other cash compensation paid to the Participant by
the Company and/or the Employer; (b) withholding from the proceeds of the sale
of shares of Stock acquired upon vesting of the Award; (c) arranging for the
sale of shares of Stock otherwise deliverable to the Participant (on the
Participant’s behalf and at the Participant’s direction pursuant to this
authorization); or (d) withholding otherwise deliverable shares of Stock,
provided that the Company only withholds the amount of shares necessary to
satisfy the minimum withholding amount or such other amount as may be necessary
to avoid adverse accounting treatment. If the Company satisfies the obligation
for Tax-Related Items by withholding a number of shares as described herein, the
Participant shall be deemed, for tax purposes only, to have been issued the full
number of shares of Stock subject to the Vested Units, notwithstanding that a
number of the shares are held back solely for the purpose of paying the
Tax-Related Items due as a result of any aspect of the Award. Participant
understands that in the event he or she becomes Retirement-Eligible, the Company
may be required to make certain payroll tax withholdings at such time (prior to
the Settlement Date).
Finally, the Participant 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
as a result of the Participant’s participation in the Plan that cannot be
satisfied by the means previously described. The Participant acknowledges and
agrees that the Company may refuse to deliver shares of Stock

6

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

if the Participant fails to comply with the Participant’s obligations in
connection with the Tax-Related Items as described in this Section.
6.3
Section 409A.

(a)    The Award is intended to qualify for the short-term deferral exception to
Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”) described in the regulations
promulgated under Section 409A to the maximum extent possible. To the extent
Section 409A is applicable to this Award (and in any event if Participant is
Retirement-Eligible), this Award is intended to comply with Section 409A and to
be interpreted and construed consistent with such intent.
(b)    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the Participant is a
“specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A, as determined under the
Company’s established methodology for determining specified employees, on the
date of Participant’s termination of service at a time when this Award pursuant
its terms would be vested (including without limitation as a result of
Participant’s Retirement), then to the extent required in order to avoid
accelerated taxation or tax penalties under Section 409A, shares of Stock that
would otherwise be issued under this Award (or any other amount due hereunder)
at such termination of service shall instead be issued on the first business day
after the first to occur of (i) the date that is six months following the
Participant’s termination of employment and (ii) the date of the Participant’s
death.
(c)    For purposes of this Agreement, the terms “terminate,” “terminated” and
“termination” mean a termination of the Participant’s employment that
constitutes a “separation from service” within the meaning of the default rules
of Section 409A of the Code.
7.
ADJUSTMENTS FOR CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE.

Subject to any required action by the stockholders of the Company, in the event
of any change in the Stock effected without receipt of consideration by the
Company, whether through merger, consolidation, reorganization, reincorporation,
recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock
split, split-up, split-off, spin-off, combination of shares, exchange of shares,
or similar change in the capital structure of the Company, or in the event of
payment of a dividend or distribution to the stockholders of the Company in a
form other than Stock (excepting normal cash dividends) that has a material
effect on the Fair Market Value of shares of Stock, appropriate and
proportionate adjustments shall be made in the number of Units subject to the
Award and/or the number and kind of shares to be issued in settlement of the
Award, in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the Participant’s rights
under the Award. For purposes of the foregoing, conversion of any convertible
securities of the Company shall not be treated as “effected without receipt of
consideration by the Company.” Any fractional share resulting from an adjustment
pursuant to this Section shall be rounded down to the nearest whole

7

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

number. Such adjustments shall be determined by the Committee, and its
determination shall be final, binding and conclusive.
8.
RIGHTS AS A STOCKHOLDER, DIRECTOR, EMPLOYEE OR CONSULTANT.

The Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares
which may be issued in settlement of this Award until the date of the issuance
of a certificate for such shares (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the
books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company). No
adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions or other rights for which
the record date is prior to the date such certificate is issued, except as
provided in Section 3.3 and Section 7. If the Participant is an Employee, the
Participant understands and acknowledges that, except as otherwise provided in a
separate, written employment agreement between a Participating Company and the
Participant, the Participant’s employment is “at will” and is for no specified
term. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon the Participant any right to
continue in the Service of a Participating Company or interfere in any way with
any right of the Participating Company Group to terminate the Participant’s
Service at any time.
9.    ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF NATURE OF PLAN AND AWARD. In accepting the Award, the
Participant acknowledges that:
9.1    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, unless otherwise provided in the Plan and this Agreement;
9.2    the Award is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual
or other right to receive future grants of Units, or benefits in lieu of Units,
even if Units have been granted repeatedly in the past;
9.3    all decisions with respect to future Awards, if any, will be at the sole
discretion of the Company;
9.4    the Participant is voluntarily participating in the Plan;
9.5    the Award is an extraordinary item that does not constitute compensation
of any kind for Service of any kind rendered to the Company or the Employer, and
which is outside the scope of the Participant’s employment or service contract,
if any;
9.6    the Award is not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for
any purposes, including, but not limited to, calculation of any severance,
resignation, termination, redundancy, end of service payments, bonuses,
long-service awards, any nonqualified pension or

8

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

retirement benefits, welfare benefits or similar payments and, except to the
extent provided under the written terms of the applicable plan, any qualified
pension benefits, and in no event should be considered as compensation for, or
relating in any way to, past services for the Company or the Employer;
9.7    in the event that the Participant is not an Employee of the Company or
any Participating Company, the Award and the Participant’s participation in the
Plan will not be interpreted to form an employment or service contract or
relationship with the Company or any Participating Company;
9.8    the future value of the underlying shares of Stock is unknown and cannot
be predicted with certainty;
9.9    in consideration of the Award, no claim or entitlement to compensation or
damages shall arise from termination of the Award or from any diminution in
value of the Award or shares of Stock acquired upon vesting of the Award
resulting from termination of the Participant’s Service by the Company or the
Employer (for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of local labor
laws) and the Participant irrevocably releases the Company and the Employer from
any such claim that may arise; if, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim
is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen, then, by signing
this Agreement, the Participant shall be deemed irrevocably to have waived his
or her entitlement to pursue such claim;
9.10    in the event of termination of the Participant’s Service (whether or not
in breach of local labor laws), the Participant’s right to receive an Award and
vest in an Award under the Plan, if any, will terminate effective as of the date
that the Participant is no longer actively rendering Service and will not be
extended by any notice period mandated under local law (e.g., active Service
will not include a period of “garden leave” or similar period pursuant to local
law); the Committee shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when the
Participant is no longer actively rendering Service for purposes of the Award;
9.11    the Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is
the Company making any recommendations regarding the Participant’s participation
in the Plan, or the Participant’s acquisition or sale of the underlying shares
of Stock; and
9.12    the Participant is hereby advised to consult with the Participant’s own
personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding the Participant’s
participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan.
10.

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

The Participant hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection,
use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of the Participant’s personal

The Participant understands that Data will be transferred to any third parties
assisting the Company with the implementation, administration and management of

different data privacy laws and protections than the Participant’s country. The
Participant understands that the Participant may request a list with the names
and addresses of any potential recipients of the Data by contacting the
Participant’s local human resources representative. The Participant authorizes
the Company and any other possible recipients which may assist the Company
(presently or in the future) with implementing, administering and managing the
Plan to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or
other form, for the sole purpose of implementing, administering and managing the
Participant’s participation in the Plan. 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
the Participant may, at any time, view Data, request additional 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 in writing the Participant’s local human resources representative.
The Participant understands, however, that refusing or withdrawing 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.
11.

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 the

otherwise prescribed by local law.
12.
LEGENDS.

The Company may at any time place legends referencing any applicable federal,
state or foreign securities law restrictions on all certificates representing
shares of Stock issued pursuant to this Agreement. The Participant shall, at the
request of the Company, promptly present to the Company any and all certificates
representing shares acquired pursuant to this Award in the possession of the
Participant in order to carry out the provisions of this Section.
13.
RECOUPMENT OF VESTED AWARDS.

If the Company determines that the Participant has breached the Company’s
Proprietary Invention Protection Agreement or any other restrictive covenant to
which the Participant is subject with respect to the Company (a “Restrictive
Covenant Breach”), then the Company may, in addition to any other remedies that
the Company may have at law or in equity, require that the Participant promptly
either (i) return to the Company any shares of Stock that the Participant
acquired pursuant to this Award or any other equity award previously or
subsequently granted to the Participant (an "Applicable Award"), if the
Participant still holds such shares of Stock, or (ii) repay to the Company the
value of such shares of Stock, as determined by the Company in its sole
discretion, if the Participant has previously disposed of such shares of Stock.
In addition, in the event of a Restrictive Covenant Breach, the Company may
require that the Participant immediately forfeit any shares of Stock underlying
any portion of an Applicable Award that had previously vested but for which the
shares of Stock had not yet been delivered to the Participant. The Participant
hereby agrees to cooperate with the Company with respect to the matters set
forth in this Section 13.
14.
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.

14.1    Termination or Amendment. The Committee may terminate or amend the Plan
or this Agreement at any time; provided, however, that no such termination or

APPENDIX.

Notwithstanding any provision herein, the Participant’s participation in the
Plan shall be subject to any special terms and conditions as set forth in the
Appendix for Participant’s country of residence, if any. The Appendix
constitutes part of this Agreement.

Exhibit A
Certain Defined Terms
For the purposes of this Agreement, the following capitalized terms shall have
the meanings set forth below:
(a)    “Cause” shall have the meaning set forth in the Participant’s Employment
Agreement; provided that if the Participant is not subject to an Employment
Agreement or if such Employment Agreement does not define “Cause” or a
substantially similar term, then Cause shall mean the occurrence of any of the
following:
(i)    the Participant’s theft, dishonesty, willful misconduct, breach of
fiduciary duty for personal profit, or falsification of any material employment
or Company records;
(ii)    the Participant’s conviction (including any plea of guilty or nolo
contendere) of any criminal act involving fraud, dishonesty, misappropriation or
moral turpitude, or which impairs the Participant’s ability to perform the
Participant’s duties with the Company;
(iii)    the Participant’s intentional and repeated failure to perform stated
duties after notice from the Company of, and a reasonable opportunity to cure,
such failure;
(iv)    the Participant’s improper disclosure of the Company’s confidential or
Proprietary Information;
(v)    any material breach by the Participant of the Company’s Code of
Professional Conduct, which breach shall be deemed “material” if it results from
an intentional act by the Participant and has a material detrimental effect on
the Company’s reputation or business; or
(vi)    any material breach by the Participant of this Agreement, the
Participant’s Employment Agreement or of any agreement regarding proprietary
information and inventions, which breach, if curable, is not cured within thirty
(30) days following written notice of such breach from the Company.
In the event that the Company terminates the Participant’s employment for Cause,
the Company shall provide written notice to the Participant of that fact prior
to, or concurrently with, the termination of employment. Failure to provide
written notice that the Company contends that the termination is for Cause shall
constitute a waiver of any contention that the termination was for Cause, and
the termination shall be irrebuttably presumed to be an involuntary termination
without Cause. However, if, within thirty (30) days following the termination,
the Company first discovers facts that would have established “Cause” for
termination, and those facts were not known by the Company at the time of the
termination, then the Company shall provide the Participant with written notice,
including the facts establishing that the purported “Cause” was not known at the
time of the termination, and the Company shall not be required to provide any of
the benefits under Sections 4.2, 4.3 or 4.4.
(b)    “Change in Control” shall have the meaning set forth in the Participant’s
Employment Agreement; provided that if the Participant is not subject to an
Employment Agreement or if such Employment Agreement does not define “Change in
Control” or a substantially similar term, then Change in Control shall mean any
of the following:

the Company representing more than fifty percent (50%) of the total combined
voting power represented by the Company’s then outstanding voting securities
other than the acquisition of the Company’s common stock by a Company-sponsored
employee benefit plan or through the issuance of shares sold directly by the
Company to a single acquiror; or (Y) any “person” (as such term is used in
Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended)
becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under said Act),
directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing less than
fifty percent (50%) of the total combined voting power represented by the
Company’s then outstanding voting securities, but in connection with the
person’s acquisition of securities the person acquires the right to terminate
the employment of all or a portion of the Company’s management team;
(ii)    the Company is party to a merger or consolidation which results in the
holders of the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior
thereto failing to retain immediately after such merger or consolidation direct
or indirect beneficial ownership of more than fifty percent (50%) of the total
combined voting power of the securities entitled to vote generally in the
election of directors of the Company or the surviving entity outstanding
immediately after such merger or consolidation;
