Form of Performance Share Award Agreement



 Exhibit 10.1 
 CELERA CORPORATION 2008 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN 
 FORM
OF PERFORMANCE SHARE AWARD AGREEMENT 
 THIS PERFORMANCE SHARE AWARD AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) evidences the
agreement between Celera Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and [FIRST NAME] [LAST NAME] an employee of the Company or one of its subsidiaries (“you”), effective as of [GRANT DATE], [Month, Day, Year] (the
“Grant Date”). This Agreement is subject to the terms and conditions contained herein and your acceptance hereof on or before [DATE]. If you do not accept this Agreement on or before [DATE] you will forfeit all Units (as defined below)
granted hereunder and this Agreement will be void and no longer effective. 
 1. Grant of Performance
Shares. The Company hereby grants to you the right to receive a maximum of [NUMBER OF SHARES] (each a “Unit”), with a target number of Units being [XXX] (the “Target Units”), with the number of Units to be earned to be
determined as set forth on Exhibit A, being the “Earned Units.” The date on which the number of Earned Units is determined shall be the “Determination Date.” Upon vesting, each Earned Unit entitles you to receive one share of
Celera Corporation Common Stock, par value $.01 per share (the “Celera Shares”), under the terms of the Celera Corporation 2008 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Plan”). Each Earned Unit will remain subject to forfeiture
unless and until such Unit has vested in accordance with the Plan and this Agreement, and will remain restricted as to transferability until such Earned Unit is settled. 
 2. Vesting and Payment of Celera Stock. Subject to your continued employment with the Company or one of its subsidiaries one-third of the Earned Units will vest on the later of the
first anniversary of the Grant Date or the Determination Date, and thereafter one-third of the Earned Units shall vest on each of the second and third anniversaries of the Grant Date, with full vesting on the third anniversary of the Grant Date;
provided, however, that only whole Earned Units shall vest, and if by applying the foregoing vesting provisions a fractional Earned Unit would vest, such fractional Earned Unit shall not vest until the following year, with full vesting in all Earned
Units on the third anniversary of the Grant Date. Upon vesting, the Company shall issue to you in book form whole numbers of Celera Shares equal to the whole number of Earned Units vested, unless you request the shares be issued in certificate form.

 3. Termination of Employment. If your employment with the Company or a subsidiary is terminated by you
or the Company for any reason other than death or total and permanent disability prior to becoming Earned Units or prior to your vesting in any Earned Units, all unvested and unearned Units will be forfeited and will revert back to the Company
without payment to you of any consideration. 
 4. Stockholder Rights. Prior to the time that your Earned
Units vest and the Company has issued Celera Shares in payment for such Earned Units, you will not be deemed to be the holder of, or to have any of the rights of a holder with respect to, any Celera Shares deliverable with respect to such Earned
Units. 
 5. Non-Transferability. Prior to the time that your Earned Units are determined or vested and the
Company has issued Celera Shares relating to such Earned Units, none of the Units (or Celera Shares subject to the Units) may be sold, assigned, bequeathed, transferred, pledged, hypothecated, or otherwise disposed of in any way. 
 6. Death, Disability and Change of Control. Notwithstanding Section 2, the Target Units will be considered earned
and Celera Shares equivalent to the Target Units shall be payable upon (i) your death, (ii) your total and permanent disability, or (iii) the occurrence of any of the events set forth in








 
Section 11 of the Plan prior to the Determination Date. Notwithstanding Section 2, after the Determination Date, you will be fully vested in any Earned Units upon (i) your death,
(ii) your total and permanent disability or (iii) the occurrence of any of the events set forth in Section 11 of the Plan. The Company shall issue to you in book form Celera Shares equal to the number of Units that so vest and become
payable. 
 7. No Right to Continued Employment. Neither the Units nor this Agreement confer upon you any
right to continue to be an employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or interferes in any way with the right of the Company or any of its subsidiaries to terminate your employment at any time. As described in Section 3 above, any
unvested Units will terminate upon the termination of your employment for any reason other than death or total and permanent disability. The Units will not be reinstated if you are subsequently reinstated as an employee of the Company or any
subsidiary. 
 8. No Right to Future Benefits. The Plan and the benefits offered under the Plan are
provided by the Company on an entirely discretionary basis, and the Plan creates no vested rights in participants. Neither the Units nor this Agreement confer upon you any benefit other than as specifically set forth in this Agreement and the Plan.
You understand and agree that the benefits offered under the Units and the Plan are not part of your salary and that receipt of the Units does not entitle you to any future benefits under the Plan or any other plan or program of the Company. The
award of Units is not part of normal or expected compensation for purposes of calculating any severance, resignation, redundancy, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension, or retirement benefits or similar payments. 

9. Compliance with Law. No Celera Shares will be delivered to you upon either the Units becoming Earned Units, or
the vesting of Earned Units unless counsel for the Company is satisfied that such delivery will be in compliance with all applicable laws. 
 10. Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Plan contain the entire agreement between you and the Company regarding the Units and supersede all contemporaneous or prior
arrangements or understandings with respect thereto. 
 11. Terms of Plan Govern. This Agreement and the
terms of the Units will be governed by the terms of the Plan which is hereby incorporated by reference in this Agreement. In the event of any ambiguity in this Agreement or any inconsistency between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of the
Plan, the terms of the Plan will govern. By your acceptance of this Agreement, you acknowledge receipt of the Plan and agree to be bound by all of the terms of the Plan. Defined terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning set
forth in the Plan. 
 12. Amendments. The Units or the Plan may, subject to certain exceptions, be amended
by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors at any time in any manner. However, no amendment of the Units or the Plan will adversely affect in any material manner any of your rights under the Units without your consent. 
 13. Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State
of Delaware. 
 14. Withholding. By acceptance of this Agreement, you agree that the Company will
automatically withhold a number of Celera Shares otherwise deliverable under this Agreement, or Units corresponding to that number of shares, with a fair market value equal to any applicable tax, social insurance and social security withholding
obligations arising in connection with the Units or your participation in the Plan. Alternatively, you may elect to satisfy such withholding obligations by: (a) paying the Company or your employer, as the case may be, an amount sufficient to
satisfy any applicable tax, social insurance and social security withholding obligations; (b) deducting from your salary or any other cash payments due to you a sum equal to any applicable tax, social insurance and social security withholding
obligations; or (c) any combination of the foregoing (including withholding in Celera Shares and/or Units); provided, such election is made during a period in which you are allowed to trade in Celera Shares under the Company’s insider
trading policy.
