II.    AGREEMENT
1.    Grant of Restricted Stock Units. Fortive Corporation (the “Company”) hereby grants to the Participant named in this Notice of Grant (the “Participant”) an Award of Target RSUs and Performance Kicker RSUs (together, the “RSUs”), subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement and the Plan, which are incorporated herein by reference. In the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of the Plan and the Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Plan shall prevail.
2.    Vesting.
(a)    Vesting Schedule.  Except as may otherwise be set forth in the Agreement or in the Plan:
(i)    The Target RSUs shall vest if the Participant continues to be actively employed with, or actively providing services to, the Company or an Eligible Subsidiary for the period required to satisfy the Time-Based Vesting Criteria applicable to such RSUs and the applicable Performance Objective, if any, has been satified.   
(ii)    The number of Performance Kicker RSUs that vest, if any, shall be determined pursuant to the terms of Addendum A, provided that (except as set forth in Section 4) the Participant must continue to be actively employed with, or actively providing services to, the Company or an 


1







Eligible Subsidiary for the period of time required to satisfy the Time-Based Vesting Criteria applicable to such Performance Kicker RSUs.
The Time-Based Vesting Criteria and Performance Objective applicable to an RSU are referred to as “Vesting Conditions,” and the earliest date upon which all Vesting Conditions are satisfied is referred to as the “Vesting Date.”  The Vesting Conditions for the Target RSUs and Performance Kicker RSUs shall be established by the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Company’s Board of Directors and reflected in the account maintained for the Participant by an external third party administrator of the RSUawards.  Further, during any approved leave of absence (and without limiting the application of any other rules governing leaves of absence that the Committee may approve from time to time pursuant to the Plan), to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Committee shall have discretion to provide that the vesting of the RSUs shall be frozen as of the first day of the leave (or as of any subsequent day during such leave, as applicable) and shall not resume until and unless the Participant returns to active employment.        
(b)    Performance Objective.  The Committee shall determine whether, and if applicable, to what extent, the Performance Objective(s) applicable to the Target RSUs and Performance Kicker RSUs have been met and the number of RSUs that shall vest, if any, and such determination shall be final and conclusive.  Until the Committee has made such a determination, the Performance Objective(s) may not be considered to have been satisfied.  Notwithstanding any determination by the Committee that the Performance Objective(s) have been attained, an RSU shall not be considered to have vested unless and until the Participant has satisfied the Time-Based Vesting Criteria applicable to such RSU.
(c)    Fractional RSU Vesting.  In the event the Participant is vested in a fractional portion of an RSU (a “Fractional Portion”), such Fractional Portion will be rounded up and converted into a whole share of Common Stock (“Share”) and issued to the Participant. 
(d)    Addendum.  The provisions of Addendum A are incorporated by reference herein and made a part of the Agreement, and to the extent any provision in Addendum A conflicts with any provision set forth elsewhere in the Agreement (including without limitation any provisions relating to Retirement), the provision set forth in Addendum A shall control.
3.    Form and Timing of Payment; Conditions to Issuance of Shares.
(a)    Form and Timing of Payment.  The award of RSUs represents the right to receive a number of Shares equal to the number of RSUs that vest pursuant to the Vesting Conditions.  Unless and until the RSUs have vested in the manner set forth in Sections 2 and 4, the Participant shall have no right to payment of any such RSUs.  Prior to actual issuance of any Shares underlying the RSUs, such RSUs will represent an unsecured obligation of the Company, payable (if at all) only from the general assets of the Company. Subject to the other terms of the Plan and the Agreement, any RSU that vests in accordance with Sections 2 and 4 will be paid to the Participant in whole Shares within 90 days of the Vesting Date for such RSU.  Shares shall not be issued under the Plan unless the issuance and delivery of such Shares comply with (or are exempt from) all applicable requirements of law, including (without limitation) the Securities Act, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, state securities laws and regulations, and the regulations of any stock exchange or other securities market on which the Company’s securities may then be traded.  The Committee may require the Participant to take any reasonable action in order to comply with any such rules or regulations.   
(b)    Acknowledgment of Potential Securities Law Restrictions.  Unless a registration statement under the Securities Act covers the Shares issued upon vesting of an RSU, the Committee may require that the Participant agree in writing to acquire such Shares for investment and not for public resale or distribution, unless and until the Shares subject to the RSUs are registered under the Securities Act.  The Committee may also require the Participant to acknowledge that he or she shall not sell or transfer such Shares except in compliance with all applicable laws, and may apply such other restrictions as it deems appropriate.  The Participant acknowledges that the U.S. federal securities laws prohibit trading in the stock of the Company by persons who are in possession of material, non-public information, and also acknowledges and understands the other restrictions set forth in the Company’s Insider Trading Policy.

4.    Termination of Employment.
(a)    General.  In the event the Participant’s active employment or other active service-providing relationship with the Company or an Eligible Subsidiary terminates for any reason (other than death, Early Retirement, Enhanced Retirement or Full Retirement), all RSUs that are unvested as of termination shall automatically terminate as of the date of termination and the Participant’s right to receive further RSUs under the Plan shall also terminate as of the date of termination.  For purposes of the RSUs, the Participant’s employment will be considered terminated as of the date the Participant is no longer actively providing services to the Company or an Eligible Subsidiary (regardless of the reason for such termination and whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction where the Participant is employed or the terms of the Participant’s employment or service agreement, if any). The Committee shall have discretion to determine whether the Participant has ceased to be actively employed by (or, if the Participant is a consultant or director, has ceased actively providing services to) the Company or Eligible Subsidiary, and the effective date on which such active employment (or active service-providing relationship) terminated.  The Participant’s active employer-employee or other active service-providing relationship will not be extended by any notice period mandated under applicable law (e.g., active employment shall not include any contractual notice period, a period of “garden leave”, paid administrative leave or similar period mandated under employment laws in the jurisdiction where the Participant is employed or the terms of the Participant’s employment or service agreement, if any).  Unless the Committee provides otherwise (1) termination of the Participant’s employment will include instances in which the Participant is terminated and immediately rehired as an independent contractor, and (2) the spin‐off, sale, or disposition of the Participant’s employer from the Company or an Eligible Subsidiary (whether by transfer of shares, assets or otherwise) such that the Participant’s employer no longer constitutes an Eligible Subsidiary will constitute a termination of employment or service.  
(b)    Death.  Upon the Participant’s death, a pro rata amount of each unvested Tranche (a “Tranche” consistsof all RSUs as to which the Time-Based Vesting Criteria are scheduled to be satisfied on the same date) of the Target RSUs and Performance Kicker RSUs shall become vested based on the number of complete twelve-month periods between the Date of Grant and the date of the Participant’s death divided by the total number of twelve-month periods between the Date of Grant and the Time-Based Vesting Date applicable to such Tranche. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or the Agreement to the contrary, for purposes of this Section, any partial twelve-month period between the Date of Grant and the date of death shall be considered a complete twelve-month period and any Fractional Portion that results from applying the pro rata methodology shall be rounded up to a whole Share.  
(c)    Retirement.
(i)    Early Retirement.  If the Participant’s active employment or other active service-providing relationship with the Company or Eligible Subsidiary terminates as a result of Early Retirement, then, unless contrary to applicable law, with respect to each Tranche of Target RSUs and Performance Kicker RSUs that is unvested as of the Early Retirement date, a pro-rata portion of such Tranche shall remain outstanding and will vest as of the Time-Based Vesting Date for such Tranche, but only to the extent the Performance Objective(s) (if any) are satisfied on or prior to the Time-Based Vesting Date according to Addendum A.  The pro-rata portion of each unvested Tranch of Target RSUs and Performance Kicker RSUs that shall continue vesting shall be determined by multiplying (1) the total number of RSUs in such Tranche by (2) the quotient of (A) the number of full or partial months worked by the Participant from the Date of Grant to the Early Retirement date, divided by (B) the total number of months in the original time-based vesting schedule of the Tranche (the “Retirement Proration Quotient”), provided that the Retirement Proration Quoitent shall never be greater than 1.0.  “Early Retirement” shall mean the Participant’s voluntary termination of employment on or after attainment of age fifty-five (55) at a time when the Participant’s age plus years of service with the Company or an Eligible Subsidiary is greater than or equal to sixty-five (65).
(ii)    Enhanced Retirement.  In the event the Participant’s active employment or other active service-providing relationship with the Company or Eligible Subsidiary terminates as a result of Enhanced Retirement, then, unless contrary to applicable law, the Participant shall become vested in a pro-rata portion of each Tranche of Target RSUs and Performance Kicker RSUs that is unvested as of the Enhanced Retirement date, but 


3







only to the extent the Performance Objective(s) (if any) are satisfied on or prior to such Time-Based Vesting Date according to Addendum A.  Such pro-rata protion of each Tranche that shall continue vesting shall be determined by multiplying (1) the total number of RSUs in such Tranche by (2) the Retirement Proration Quotient assuming for purposes of such formula that the Participant’s termination of employment occurred on the one year anniversary of the Participant’s Enhanced Retirement date, provided that the Retirement Proration Quotient shall never be greater than 1.0. “Enhanced Retirement” shall mean the Participant’s voluntary termination of employment on or after attainment of age sixty (60) at a time when the sum of the Participant’s age plus years of service with the Company or an Eligible Subsidiary is greater than or equal to seventy (70).     
(iii)     Full Retirement.  Upon termination of employment by reason of the Participant’s Full Retirement, unless contrary to applicable law, with respect to each Tranche of Target RSUs and Performance Kicker RSUs that is unvested as of the Full Retirement date, such Tranche will vest in full as of the Time-Based Vesting Date for such Tranche, but only to the extent the Performance Objective(s) (if any) are satisfied on or prior to such Time-Based Vesting Date according to Addendum A.  “Full Retirement” shall mean the Participant’s voluntary termination of employment, either (1) on or after attainment of age sixty-two (62) at a time when the sum of the Participant’s age plus years of service with the Company or an Eligible Subsidiary is greater than or equal to eighty (80) or (2) Normal Retirement.
(d)    Gross Misconduct.  If the Participant’s employment with the Company or an Eligible Subsidiary is terminated for Gross Misconduct, all the Participant’s unvested RSUs shall automatically terminate as of the time of termination without consideration.  The Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Participant’s termination of employment shall also be deemed to be a termination of employment by reason of the Participant’s Gross Misconduct if, after the Participant’s employment has terminated, facts and circumstances are discovered or confirmed by the Company that would have justified a termination for Gross Misconduct.
(e)    Violation of Post-Employment Covenant.  To the extent that any of the Participant’s RSUs remain outstanding under the terms of the Plan or the Agreement after termination of the Participant’s employment or service with the Company or an Eligible Subsidiary, such RSUs shall expire as of the date the Participant violates any covenant not to compete or other post-employment covenant that exists between the Participant on the one hand and the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, on the other hand.
(f)    Substantial Corporate Change.  Upon a Substantial Corporate Change, the Participant’s unvested RSUs will terminate unless provision is made in writing in connection with such transaction for the assumption or continuation of the RSUs, or the substitution for such RSUs of any options or grants covering the stock or securities of a successor employer corporation, or a parent or subsidiary of such successor, with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kind of shares of stock and prices, in which event the RSUs will continue in the manner and under the terms so provided.      
5.    Non-Transferability of RSUs.  Unless the Committee determines otherwise in advance in writing, RSUs may not be transferred in any manner otherwise than by will or by the applicable laws of descent or distribution. The terms of the Plan and the Agreement shall be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs and permitted successors and assigns of the Participant.
6.    Amendment of RSUs or Plan.
(a)    The Plan and the Agreement constitute the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede in their entirety all prior undertakings and agreements of the Company and the Participant with respect to the subject matter hereof.  The Participant expressly warrants that he or she is not accepting the Agreement in reliance on any promises, representations, or inducements other than those contained herein.  The Board may amend, modify or terminate the Plan or any award in any respect at any time; provided, however, that modifications to the Agreement or the Plan that materially and adversely affect the Participant’s rights hereunder can be made only in an express written contract signed by the Company and the Participant.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or the Agreement, the Company reserves the right to revise the 


4







Agreement and the Participant’s rights under outstanding RSUs as it deems necessary or advisable, in its sole discretion and without the consent of the Participant, (1) upon a Substantial Corporate Change, (2) as required by law, or (3) to comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (“Section 409A”) or to otherwise avoid imposition of any additional tax or income recognition under Section 409A in connection with this Award.
(b)  The Participant acknowledges and agrees that if the Participant changes classification from a full-time employee to a part-time employee the Committee may in its sole discretion  reduce or eliminate the Participant’s unvested RSUs.
7.    Tax Obligations.  
(a)    Withholding Taxes.  Regardless of any action the Company or any Subsidiary employing the Participant (the “Employer”) takes with respect to any or all federal, state, local or foreign income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or other tax related items (“Tax Related Items”), the Participant acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all Tax Related Items associated with the RSUs is and remains the Participant’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the Employer and that the Company and the Employer (i) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax Related Items in connection with any aspect of the RSUs, including, but not limited to, the grant or vesting of the RSUs, the delivery of the Shares, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired at vesting and the receipt of any dividends; and (ii) do not commit to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the RSUs to reduce or eliminate the Participant’s liability for Tax Related Items.  Further, if the Participant is subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction, the Participant acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.
(b)    Prior to the relevant taxable event, the Participant shall pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all withholding and payment on account obligations for Tax Related Items of the Company and/or the Employer.  In this regard, the Participant authorizes the Company and the Employer, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy the obligations with regard to all Tax Related Items legally payable by the Participant (with respect to the RSUs granted hereunder as well as any equity awards previously received by the Participant under any Company stock plan) by one or a combination of the following:  (i) requiring the Participant to pay Tax Related Items in cash with a cashier’s check or certified check or by wire transfer of immediately available funds; (ii) withholding cash from the Participant’s wages or other compensation payable to the Participant by the Company and/or the Employer; (iii) arranging for the sale of Shares otherwise issuable to the Participant upon payment of the RSUs (on the Participant’s behalf and at the Participant’s direction pursuant to this authorization), including the sale of Shares prior to such scheduled payment date; (iv) withholding from the proceeds of the sale of Shares acquired upon payment on the RSUs; (v) withholding in Shares otherwise issuable to the Participant, provided that the Company withholds only the amount of Shares necessary to satisfy the minimum statutory withholding amount (or such other amount that will not cause adverse accounting consequences for the Company and is permitted under applicable withholding rules promulgated by the Internal Revenue Service or another applicable governmental entity) using the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of the relevant taxable event; or (vi) any method determined by the Committee to be in compliance with applicable laws.  
Depending on the withholding method, the Company and/or Employer may withhold or account for Tax Related Items by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding rates or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum applicable rates, in which case the Participant may receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash and will have no entitlement to the Share equivalent.  If the obligation for Tax Related Items is satisfied by withholding in Shares, for tax purposes, the Participant is deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject to the vested RSUs, notwithstanding that a number of Shares are held back solely for purposes of paying the Tax Related Items.
Finally, the Participant agrees to pay to the Company or the Employer any amount Tax Related Items that the Company and/or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for as a result of the Participant’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described.  The Company may refuse to 


5







issue or deliver to the Participant any Shares or proceeds from the sale of Shares if the Participant fails to comply with the Participant’s obligations in connection with the Tax Related Items.
(c)    Code Section 409A. The intent of the parties is that payments and benefits under the Agreement comply with Section 409A of Code to the extent subject thereto, and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, the Agreement shall be interpreted and be administered to be in compliance therewith.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, to the extent required to avoid accelerated taxation and/or tax penalties under Section 409A of the Code, the Participant shall not be considered to have separated from service with the Company for purposes of the Agreement and no payment shall be due to the Participant under the Agreement on account of a separation from service until the Participant would be considered to have incurred a “separation from service” from the Company within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code.  Any payments described in the Agreement that are due within the “short-term deferral period” as defined in Section 409A of the Code shall not be treated as deferred compensation unless applicable law requires otherwise.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement, to the extent that any amounts are payable upon a separation from service and such payment would result in accelerated taxation and/or tax penalties under Section 409A of the Code, such payment, under the Agreement or any other agreement of the Company, shall be made on the first business day after the date that is six (6) months following such separation from service (or death, if earlier). The Company makes no representation that any or all of the payments described in the Agreement will be exempt from or comply with Section 409A of the Code and makes no undertaking to preclude Section 409A of the Code from applying to any such payment. The Participant shall be solely responsible for the payment of any taxes and penalties incurred under Section 409A.
For purposes of making a payment under the Agreement, if any amount is payable as a result of a Substantial Corporate Change, such event must also constitute a “change in ownership or effective control” of the Company or a “change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets” of the Company within the meaning of Section 409A.
8.    Nature of Grant.  In accepting the RSUs, the Participant acknowledges and agrees that:
(a)    the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, it is discretionary in nature and may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time, to the extent permitted by the Plan;
(b)    the award of RSUs is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future awards of RSUs, benefits in lieu of RSUs or other equity awards, even if RSUs have been awarded repeatedly in the past;
(c)    all decisions with respect to future equity awards, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company;
(d)    the Participant’s participation in the Plan is voluntary;
(e)    the award of RSUs and Shares subject to the RSUs, and the income and value of same, are an extraordinary item that (i) does not constitute compensation of any kind for services of any kind rendered to the Company or any Subsidiary, and (ii) is outside the scope of Participant’s employment or service contract, if any;
(f)    the award of RSUs and Shares subject to the RSUs, and the income and value of same, are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation;
(g)    the award of RSUs and Shares subject to the RSUs, and the income and value of same, are not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purposes, including, but not limited to, calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, 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 or any Subsidiary;


6







(h)    unless otherwise expressly agreed with the Company, the RSUs and Shares subject to the RSUs, and the income and value of same, are not granted as consideration for, or in connection with, any service the Participant may provide as a director of any Subsidiary;
(i)    the future value of the underlying Shares is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty;
(j)    the value of the Shares acquired upon vesting/settlement of the RSUs may increase or decrease in value;
(k)    in consideration of the award of RSUs, no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from termination of the award or from any diminution in value of the RSUs or Shares upon vesting of the RSUs resulting from termination of the Participant’s employment or continuous service by the Company or any Subsidiary (for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of applicable labor laws of the jurisdiction where the Participant is employed or the terms of the Participant’s employment agreement, if any); 
(l)    neither the Company, the Employer nor any other Subsidiary shall be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between the Participant's local currency and the United States Dollar that may affect the value of the RSUs or of any amounts due to the Participant pursuant to the settlement of the RSUs or the subsequent sale of any Shares acquired upon vesting;
(m)    the Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding Participant’s participation in the Plan or the Participant’s acquisition or sale of the underlying Shares; and
(n)    the Participant should 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.
9.    Rights as Shareholder.  Until all requirements for vesting of the RSUs pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and the Plan have been satisfied, the Participant shall not be deemed to be a shareholder of the Company, and shall have no dividend rights or voting rights with respect to the RSUs or any Shares underlying or issuable in respect of such RSUs until such Shares are actually issued to the Participant.  
10.    No Employment Contract.  Nothing in the Plan or the Agreement constitutes an employment contract between the Company and the Participant and the Agreement shall not confer upon the Participant any right to continuation of employment or service with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, nor shall the Agreement interfere in any way with the Company’s or any of its Subsidiaries right to terminate the Participant’s employment or service at any time, with or without cause (subject to any employment agreement a Participant may otherwise have with the Company or a Subsidiary thereof and/or applicable law). 
11.    Board Authority.  The Board and/or the Committee shall have the power to interpret the Agreement and to adopt such rules for the administration, interpretation and application of the Agreement as are consistent therewith and to interpret or revoke any such rules (including, but not limited to, the determination of whether any RSUs have vested).  All interpretations and determinations made by the Board and/or the Committee in good faith shall be final and binding upon the Participant, the Company and all other interested persons and such determinations of the Board and/or the Committee do not have to be uniform nor do they have to consider whether Plan participants are similarly situated.  No member of the Board and/or the Committee shall be personally liable for any action, determination or interpretation made in good faith with respect to the Agreement.  
12.    Headings.  The captions used in the Agreement and the Plan are inserted for convenience and shall not be deemed to be a part of the RSUs for construction and interpretation.

13.    Electronic Delivery.
(a)    If the Participant executes the Agreement electronically, for the avoidance of doubt, the Participant acknowledges and agrees that his or her execution of the Agreement electronically (through an on-line system established and maintained by the Company or a third party designated by the Company, or otherwise) shall have the same binding legal effect as would execution of the Agreement in paper form.  The Participant acknowledges that upon request of the Company he or she shall also provide an executed paper form of the Agreement.
(b)    If the Participant executes the Agreement in paper form, for the avoidance of doubt, the parties acknowledge and agree that it is their intent that any agreement previously or subsequently entered into between the parties that is executed electronically shall have the same binding legal effect as if such agreement were executed in paper form.
(c)    If the Participant executes the Agreement multiple times (for example, if the Participant first executes the Agreement in electronic form and subsequently executes the Agreement in paper form), the Participant acknowledges and agrees that (i) no matter how many versions of the Agreement are executed and in whatever medium, the Agreement only evidences a single award relating to the number of RSUs set forth in the Notice of Grant and (ii) the Agreement shall be effective as of the earliest execution of the Agreement by the parties, whether in paper form or electronically, and the subsequent execution of the Agreement in the same or a different medium shall in no way impair the binding legal effect of the Agreement as of the time of original execution.
(d)    The Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver by electronic means any documents related to the RSUs, to participation in the Plan, or to future awards granted under the Plan, or otherwise required to be delivered to the Participant pursuant to the Plan or under applicable law, including but not limited to, the Plan, the Agreement, the Plan prospectus and any reports of the Company generally provided to shareholders.  Such means of electronic delivery may include, but do not necessarily include, the delivery of a link to the Company’s intranet or the internet site of a third party involved in administering the Plan, the delivery of documents via electronic mail (“e-mail”) or such other means of electronic delivery specified by the Company.  By executing the Agreement, the Participant hereby consents to receive such documents by electronic delivery.  At the Participant’s written request to the Secretary of the Company, the Company shall provide a paper copy of any document at no cost to the Participant.  
14.    Data Privacy.  This Section 14 provides important information about the Company’s use of personal information about the Participant. For the purposes of applicable data privacy laws the data controller is Fortive Corporation with registered offices at 6920 Seaway Blvd, Everett, Washington 98203. Participants should read the information below carefully: 
(a)    Uses of Data and Legal Basis. In order to implement, administer and manage the Participant’s participation in the Plan it will be necessary for the Company to  collect, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, the Participant’s Data, (as defined below) by and among, as applicable, the Employer, the Company and its Subsidiaries. . The use of the Participant’s Data for these purposes is  necessary for the performance of the Plan and for the Company to fulfil its contractual commitments to the Participant. The Participant's refusal to provide the Data set out in subsection (b) below may affect the Participant's ability to participate in the Plan.
(b)    Categories of Data. In order to implement, administer and manage the Participant’s participation in the Plan Company and the Employer may hold certain personal information about the Participant, including, but not limited to, the Participant’s name, home address, email address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number, passport or other identification number (e.g., resident registration number), salary, nationality, and job title, any shares of stock or directorships held in the Company, details of the PSUs or any other entitlement to shares of stock awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in the Participant’s favor (“Data”).  
(c)    Sharing and Transferring Data.  In order to implement, administer and manage the Participant’s participation in the Plan, the Participant’s Data may be transferred to Fidelity Stock Plan Services and its affiliated 


8







companies, or such other stock plan service provider or any other third party (as may be selected by the Company in the future) which is assisting the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan.  Data may also be shared with a broker or other third party with whom the Participant may elect to deposit any Shares acquired upon vesting of the PSUs. The recipients of the Data may be located in the Participant's country or elsewhere, and the recipient's country (e.g., the United States) may have different data privacy laws and protections than the Participant's country. Where this is the case, the Company will take steps to put in place appropriate safeguards in respect of the Participant’s Data.  Under the data privacy laws of certain countries, the Participant may request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Data by contacting his or her local human resources representative.    
(d)    Retention and Legal Rights. Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage the Participant's participation in the Plan. Under the data privacy laws of certain counrties the Participant may , request access to and receive a copy of Data, request additional information about the storage and processing of Data, require any necessary amendments to Data in any case without cost, by contacting in writing his or her local human resources representative. The Company will handle such requests in accordance with applicable law and there may therefore be legal reasons why the Company cannot grant the Participant’s request.   
For more information, the Participant may contact his or her local human resources representative.
15.    Waiver of Right to Jury Trial.  Each party, to the fullest extent permitted by law, waives any right or expectation against the other to trial or adjudication by a jury of any claim, cause or action arising with respect to the RSUs or hereunder, or the rights, duties or liabilities created hereby.  
16.    Agreement Severable.  In the event that any provision of the Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be severable from, and such invalidity or unenforceability shall not be construed to have any effect on, the remaining provisions of the Agreement.
17.    Governing Law and Venue. The laws of the State of Delaware (other than its choice of law provisions) shall govern the Agreement and its interpretation.  For purposes of litigating any dispute that arises with respect to the RSUs, the Agreement or the Plan, the parties hereby submit to and consent to the jurisdiction of the State of Delaware, and agree that such litigation shall be conducted in the courts of New Castle County, or the United States Federal court for the District of Delaware, and no other courts; and waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that the laying of the venue of any legal or equitable proceedings related to, concerning or arising from such dispute which is brought in any such court is improper or that such proceedings have been brought in an inconvenient forum.  Any claim under the Plan, the Agreement or any award must be commenced by the Participant within twelve (12) months of the earliest date on which the Participant’s claim first arises, or the Participant’s cause of action accrues, or such claim will be deemed waived by the Participant.

The Company may, directly or through its third party stock plan administrator, endeavor to provide certain notices to the Participant regarding certain events relating to awards that the Participant may have received or may in the future receive under the Plan, such as  notices reminding the Participant of the vesting or expiration date of certain awards.
