THE INTERPUBLIC RESTRICTED CASH PLAN
RESTRICTED CASH AWARD AGREEMENT
The following terms and conditions supplement the terms of the Plan:
Payment of Award
The vested Award shall be paid on the Payment Date set forth above, in local
currency by the Employer via local payroll.
Tax Withholding
The Company or the Employer may be required to withhold income and employment
taxes when the Award is paid to the Participant. Regardless of any action the
Company or the Employer takes with respect to any or all income tax (including
U.S. federal, state and local taxes and/or non-U.S. taxes), social insurance,
payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“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. Neither the Company nor the Employer: (a) make any
representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items
in connection with any aspect of the Award, including the grant of the Award,
the vesting or settlement of the Award; or (b) commit to structure the terms of
the grant or any aspect of the Award to reduce or eliminate the Participant's
liability for Tax-Related Items.
If the Participant's country of residence (and/or country of employment, if
different) requires withholding of Tax-Related Items, the Company or the
Employer may withhold a sufficient portion of the amount to be paid equal to the
amount of Tax-Related Items required to be withheld. If the Participant
relocates to another jurisdiction, the Participant is responsible for notifying
the Company of such relocation and is responsible for compliance with all
applicable tax requirements. If the Participant is subject to taxation in more
than one jurisdiction, the Participant acknowledges that the Company or the
Employer may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more
than one jurisdiction. By accepting this Award, the Participant expressly
consents to the withholding methods as provided for hereunder. All other
Tax-Related Items related to the Award and cash delivered in settlement thereof
are the Participant’s sole responsibility. Neither the Company and its
Affiliates nor the Employer shall be responsible for any liability or penalty
relating to taxes (including excise taxes) on compensation (including imputed
compensation) or other income attributed to the Participant (or a Beneficiary)
pursuant to this Agreement, whether as a result of the Participant failing to
make timely payments of tax or otherwise.
Change of Control
This Award shall not vest or become immediately payable merely upon the
occurrence of a Change of Control. However, if prior to the Vesting Date and
within 24 months after the Change of Control, the Participant’s employment with
the Company and Affiliates is terminated involuntarily and without Cause, then
this Award shall become immediately vested and payable to the Participant.
Death or Disability
If the Participant terminates service due to Disability or death, the
Participant shall vest in a portion of the Award as follows, and the vested
portion shall be paid as soon as practicable thereafter:
The vested portion of the Award shall equal a fraction (not to exceed 1.0), the
numerator of which is the Participant’s number of completed months of service
with the Company and its Affiliates from the Date of Award to the Participant’s
date of termination, and the denominator of which is the number of months from
the Date of Award to the scheduled Vesting Date.
Compliance with Local Laws
If the Participant is a resident of or employed in a country other than the
United States, the Participant agrees to take any and all actions, and consents
to any and all actions taken by the Company and the Employer as may be required
to allow the Company and the Employer to comply with local laws, rules and
regulations in the Participant's country of residence (and country of
employment, if different). Additionally, the Participant agrees to take any and
all actions that may be required to comply with the Participant's personal legal
and tax obligations under local laws, rules and regulations in the Participant's
country of residence (and country of employment, if different).
EU Age Discrimination Rules
If the Participant is a resident of and/or employed in a country that is a
member of the European Union, the grant of the Award and this Agreement are
intended to comply with the age discrimination provisions of the EU Equal
Treatment Framework Directive, as implemented into local law (the “Age
Discrimination Rules”). To the extent that a court or tribunal of competent
jurisdiction determines that any provision of this Agreement is invalid or
unenforceable, in whole or in part, under the Age Discrimination Rules, the
Company, in its sole discretion, shall have the power and authority to revise or
strike such provision to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid and
enforceable to the full extent permitted under local law.
Forfeiture of Award
Before accepting this Award, the Participant must disclose to the Company in
writing all grants to the Participant of options, shares and other equity rights
with respect to any Subsidiary of the Company ("Subsidiary Grants") that are
still outstanding. Failure to disclose in writing the existence of any such
outstanding Subsidiary Grants shall result in immediate cancellation and
forfeiture of the Award set forth in this Agreement, unless the [Compensation
Committee determines in its sole discretion that such failure was reasonable
under the circumstances.

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

Cancellation and Rescission
Participant agrees that the Company may cancel, withhold, amend or otherwise
limit or restrict this Award (whether vested or not vested) at any time if the
Participant is not in compliance with all applicable provisions of the Agreement
and the Plan, or if the Participant engages in any “Prohibited Activity.” For
purposes of this Agreement, “Prohibited Activity” includes: (i) any activity
that would enable the Company to terminate the Participant’s employment for
cause (as defined in the Plan or any employment agreement or other plan or
arrangement that covers the Participant); (ii) a violation of any rule, policy
or procedure of the Company, including but not limited to the Code of Conduct of
the Company; or (iii) any other conduct or act that the Company determines is
injurious, detrimental or prejudicial to any interest of the Company.
Participant agrees that the cancellation and rescission provisions of this
Agreement are reasonable and agrees not to challenge the reasonableness of such
provisions, even where forfeiture of this Agreement is the penalty for
violation.
No Employment Rights
The grant of the Award shall not be interpreted to form an employment contract
between the Participant and the Company or the Employer.
Discretionary Nature of Award
The Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Plan is discretionary in nature
and may be amended, cancelled or terminated by the Company, in its sole
discretion, at any time. The grant of the Award under the Plan is a one-time
benefit and does not create any contractual or other right to receive an Award
or other benefits in lieu thereof in the future. Future grants, if any, will be
at the sole discretion of the Company, including, but not limited to, the form
and timing of any grant, the amount granted and the vesting provisions. Any
amendment, modification or termination of the Plan shall not constitute a change
or impairment of the terms and conditions of the Participant's employment with
the Employer.
Extraordinary Benefit
The Participant's participation in the Plan is voluntary. The value of the Award
and any other awards granted under the Plan is an extraordinary item of
compensation outside the scope of the Participant's employment (and the
Participant's employment contract, if any). Any grant under the Plan, including
the grant of the Award, is not part of the Participant's normal or expected
compensation for purposes of calculating any severance, resignation, redundancy,
end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, holiday pay, pension, or
retirement benefits or similar payments.
Value of Benefit
If the Award is not paid in U.S. dollars, its future value is unknown and cannot
be predicted with certainty. The Company shall not be liable for any foreign
exchange rate fluctuation, where applicable, between the Participant’s local
currency and the United States dollar that may affect the value of the Award or
of any amounts due to the Participant pursuant to the settlement of the Award.
Recoupment
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the
Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Award, or any amount received with
respect thereto are subject to potential cancellation, recoupment, rescission,
payback or other action in accordance with the terms of any recoupment policy
the Company may establish or adopt ("Recoupment Policy") and as the Recoupment
Policy may be amended from time to time. The Participant agrees and consents to
the Company's application, implementation and enforcement of (a) the Recoupment
Policy, and (b) any provision of applicable law relating to cancellation,
recoupment, rescission or payback of compensation and expressly agrees that the
Company may take such actions as are necessary to effectuate the Recoupment
Policy (as applicable to the Participant) or applicable law without further
consent or action being required by the Participant. For purposes of the
foregoing, the Participant expressly and explicitly authorizes the Company to
issue instructions, on the Participant's behalf, to any third party
administrator engaged by the Company to hold any amounts acquired under the Plan
to re-convey, transfer or otherwise return such amounts to the Company. To the
extent that the terms of this Agreement and the Recoupment Policy conflict, the
terms of the Recoupment Policy shall prevail.
English Language
If the Participant is resident outside of the United States, the Participant
acknowledges and agrees that it is the Participant's express intent that this
Agreement, the Plan and all other documents, notices and legal proceedings
entered into, given or instituted pursuant to the Award be drawn up in English.
If the Participant receives this Agreement, the Plan or any other document
related to the Award translated into a language other than English, and if the
meaning of the translated version is different than the English version, the
English version will control.
Electronic Delivery
The Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related
to the Award or other awards granted to the Participant under the Plan by
electronic means. The Participant hereby consents to receive such documents by
electronic delivery and agrees to participate in the Plan through an on-line or
electronic system established and maintained by the Company or a third party
designated by the Company.

and its Affiliates in its sole discretion. In conjunction with the Company’s

the Company is providing the following information about its data collection,
processing and transfer practices. In accepting the grant of the Award, the
Participant expressly and explicitly consents to the personal data activities as

uses the Participant’s personal data, including the Participant’s name, home
address, email address, telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number
or other identification number, salary, citizenship, job title, any shares or
directorships held in the Company, and details of all Awards or any other equity
compensation awards granted, canceled, exercised, vested, or outstanding in the

Employer ("Personal Data"). In granting the Awards under the Plan, the Company
will collect the Participant’s Personal Data for purposes of paying the Awards
and implementing, administering and managing the Plan.  The Company’s legal
basis for the collection, processing and usage of the Participant’s Personal
Data is the Participant’s consent.

Personal Data to the Company's Affiliates outside of the United States of

management of the Plan, including the Affiliates payroll provider.  In the
future, the Company may share the Participant’s personal data with another
company that serves in a similar manner. The Participant may be asked to agree
to the terms and data processing practices with the Affiliate or the Affiliate's
payroll provider, which is a condition to the Participant’s ability to
participate in the Plan.

(c) International Data Transfers. The Company is based in the United States of
America.  The Participant should note that the Participant’s country of
residence may have enacted data privacy laws that are different from the United

Participant’s Personal Data to the United States of America is the Participant’s
consent.

(d) Voluntariness and Consequences of Consent Denial or Withdrawal. The
Participant’s participation in the Plan and his or her grant of consent is
purely voluntary.  The Participant may deny or withdraw his or her consent at
any time.  If the Participant does not consent, or if the Participant later
withdraws his or her consent, the Participant may be unable to participate in
the Plan.  This would not affect the Participant’s existing employment or
salary; instead, the Participant merely may forfeit the opportunities associated
with the Plan.

(e) Data Subjects Rights. The Participant may have a number of rights under the
data privacy laws in the Participant’s country of residence.  For example, the
Participant’s rights may include the right to (i) request access or copies of
Personal Data the Company processes, (ii) request rectification of incorrect
Personal Data, (iii) request deletion of Personal Data, (iv) place restrictions
on processing of Personal Data, (v) lodge complaints with competent authorities
in the Participant’s country of residence, and/or (vi) request a list with the

local law or to facilitate the operation and administration of the award and the
Plan (or the Company may establish alternative terms and conditions as may be
necessary or advisable to accommodate the Participant's transfer). In all
circumstances, any applicable Addendum shall constitute part of this Agreement.

order to comply with local law or to facilitate the operation and administration
