DEFERRED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT

THIS AGREEMENT, dated as of______________ (“Grant Date”) is between Mastercard

Capitalized terms that are used but not defined in this Agreement have the

agree as follows:
1.    Grant of Units.
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and of the Plan, the
Company hereby grants to the Director the number of Deferred Stock Units
(“Units”) reflected in the Director’s grant statement, the terms and conditions
of which statement are incorporated as a part of this Agreement. The Units
comprising this award will be recorded in an unfunded Units account in the
Director’s name maintained on the books of the Company (“Account”). Each Unit
represents the right to receive one share of the Company’s $0.0001 par value
Class A Common Stock (“Common Shares”) under the terms and conditions set forth
below.
2.    Vesting.
The interest of the Director in the Units is fully vested on grant.
3.    Transfer Restrictions.
The Units granted hereunder may not be sold, assigned, margined, transferred,
encumbered, conveyed, gifted, hypothecated, pledged, or otherwise disposed of
and may not be subject to lien, garnishment, attachment or other legal process,
except as expressly permitted by the Plan.
4.    Stockholder Rights.
Prior to the time that the Director’s Units are settled and the Company has
issued Common Shares relating to such Units, the Director will not be deemed to
be the holder of, or have any of the rights of a holder with respect to, any
Common Shares deliverable with respect to such Units.
5.    Dividend Equivalents.
Until such time as the Units are released to the Director, the Company will pay
the Director a cash amount equal to the number of Units granted hereunder times
any per share dividend payment made to shareholders of the Company’s Common
Shares as long as the Director continues to hold such Units on the dividend
payment date. Such payments shall be made by the end of the year in which
dividends are paid to shareholders.
6.    Changes in Stock.
In the event of any change with respect to outstanding Common Shares
contemplated by Section 4.2 of the Plan, the Units may be adjusted in accordance
with Section 4.2 of the Plan.

7.    Form and Timing of Payment.
The Company shall pay on the fourth anniversary of the Grant Date,
______________ (or on the first business day thereafter), a number of Common
Shares equal to the aggregate number of Units granted under this Agreement;
provided, however, that if the Director has timely made a valid election to
defer settlement of the Deferred Stock Units in accordance with the Plan, the
Common Shares shall be paid as specified in such election. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in the event the Director has a Termination from Service, payment
shall be made within 60 days of the Director’s Termination from Service.
In the event a Director is a specified employee for purposes of Code section
409A(a)(2)(B)(i) at the time of his or her Termination from Service, any payment
required to be made on Termination from Service shall be made on the first day

8.    Compliance with Law.
No Common Shares will be delivered to the Director unless counsel for the
Company is satisfied that such delivery will be in compliance with all
applicable laws, including, without limitation, any rule, regulation or
procedure of the U.S. national securities exchange upon which the Common Shares
are traded or any listing agreement with any such securities exchange, or any
other requirement of law or of any administrative or regulatory body having
jurisdiction over the Company. The Company reserves the right to impose other
requirements on the Units, any Common Shares acquired or payment made pursuant
to the Units, and the Director's participation in the Plan, to the extent the
Company determines, in its sole discretion, that such other requirements are
necessary or advisable to comply with applicable laws. Such requirements may
include (but are not limited to) requiring the Director to sign any agreements
or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing.
9.    Taxes.
The Director shall be liable for any and all U.S. and foreign income and social
taxes, including any required withholding taxes, arising out of this grant or
the issuance of the Common Shares hereunder. To the extent withholding is
required under applicable law, the Company is authorized to deduct the amount of
tax withholding from the amount payable to the Director upon payment of dividend
equivalents and settlement of the Units, or to obtain withholdings in any other
method permitted by the Plan. With regard to the Units, unless otherwise
approved by the Committee, the Company shall withhold from the total number of
Common Shares the Director is to receive the value equal to the amount necessary
to satisfy any such withholding obligation at the minimum applicable withholding
rate or, to the extent permitted by applicable accounting principles, at up to
the maximum applicable withholding rate. In accordance with U.S. federal income
tax withholding requirements, the Company shall withhold on amounts payable to
Directors who are considered U.S. nonresident aliens under Code Section 7701(b).
