CBOE HOLDINGS, INC. LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN
RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT
This Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement (this “Agreement”) is dated effective _______________________ (the “Award Date”), and is between CBOE Holdings, Inc. (the “Corporation”) and __________________ (“Participant”).  Any term capitalized but not defined in this Agreement will have the meaning set forth in the Second Amended and Restated CBOE Holdings, Inc. Long-Term Incentive Plan (as may be amended from time to time, the “Plan”). 
		
	1.
	Award.  The Corporation hereby awards to Participant [__________] Restricted Stock Units (the “Restricted Stock Units”).  The Restricted Stock Units will be subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement.  Each Restricted Stock Unit is a notional amount that represents one unvested share of Stock and entitles Participant, subject to the terms of this Agreement, to receive a share of Stock if and when the Restricted Stock Unit vests.   




		
	2.
	No Rights as Stockholder; Dividend Equivalents.  Participant shall have no voting rights with respect to shares of Stock represented by Restricted Stock Units until the date of the issuance of the shares of Stock (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Corporation or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Corporation).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Corporation declares a cash dividend on shares of Stock, on the payment date of the dividend, Participant will be credited with Dividend Equivalent Rights equal to the amount of the cash dividend per share multiplied by the number of Restricted Stock Units held by Participant on the dividend’s record date.  The Dividend Equivalent Rights credited to Participant under the preceding sentence will be distributed to Participant at the same time as the underlying cash dividend is distributed to shareholders of the Corporation. 




		
	3.
	Vesting; Effect of Termination of Service.  


(a)Subject to Sections 3(b) and 3(c) below and the terms of any employment  agreement or offer letter between the Corporation and Participant, Participant’s Restricted Stock Units will vest in full on the three-year anniversary of the Award Date, provided that Participant has remained in Service continuously through such date.


(b)Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Restricted Stock Units will vest in full upon the earliest to occur of (i) Participant’s death, (ii) Participant’s becoming Disabled, provided that such condition qualifies as “disability” for purposes of Section 409A, (iii) a Change in Control that qualifies as a “change in control event” as defined for purposes of Section 409A, or (iv) the date on which Participant has attained at least age fifty-five (55) and completed ten (10) years of Service (“Retirement Vesting”), in each case, if prior to any forfeiture event under Section 3(c) below.


(c)If Participant’s Service is terminated for any reason before all of Participant’s Restricted Stock Units have vested under this Agreement (including pursuant to an event described in Section 3(b) above or the terms of any employment agreement or offer letter between the Corporation and Participant), Participant’s unvested Restricted Stock Units will be forfeited upon the effective date of such termination of Service.  Neither the Corporation nor any Affiliate will have any further obligations to Participant under this Agreement if Participant’s Restricted Stock Units are forfeited.








EXHIBIT 10.36



		
	4.
	Terms and Conditions of Distribution.  




(a)Distribution of a share of Stock that corresponds to a vested Restricted Stock Unit (other than a Restricted Stock Unit that vested due to Retirement Vesting) shall be made to Participant as soon as practicable after the Restricted Stock Unit vests, but not later than two and a half (21⁄2) months after the end of the calendar year in which such vesting occurs.  


(b)Distribution of a share of Stock that corresponds to a Restricted Stock Unit that vested due to Retirement Vesting shall be made to Participant as soon as practicable following the earlier to occur of the following dates: (i) the date on which such Restricted Stock Unit would otherwise have vested in accordance with Section 3(a) or clauses (i), (ii), or (iii) of Section 3(b), or (ii) Participant’s retirement which qualifies as a “separation from service” as defined for purposes of Section 409A (or, if Participant is a “specified employee” as defined for purposes of Section 409A on the date of such separation from service, the date that is the first day of the seventh (7th) month following Participant’s separation from service).


(c)If Participant dies before the date on which the Corporation would have distributed shares of Stock in satisfaction of vested Restricted Stock Units, the Corporation will distribute such shares of Stock to Participant’s designated beneficiary(ies) or, if none are designated or surviving, to Participant’s estate or personal representative.  The Corporation is not required to issue or deliver any shares of Stock before completing the steps necessary to comply with applicable Federal and state securities laws (including any registration requirements) and applicable stock exchange rules and practices.  The Corporation will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause compliance with those laws, rules and practices.  The foregoing provisions are subject in all cases to the requirements of Section 409A.  


		
	5.
	Nontransferability.  Unvested Restricted Stock Units may not be sold, transferred, exchanged, pledged, assigned, garnished, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.  Any effort to assign or transfer the rights under this Agreement will be wholly ineffective, and will be grounds for termination by the Committee of all rights of Participant under this Agreement.




		
	6.
	Administration.  The Committee administers the Plan.  Participant’s rights under this Agreement are expressly subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and to any guidelines the Committee adopts from time to time.  The interpretation and construction by the Committee of the Plan and this Agreement, and such rules and regulations as may be adopted by the Committee for purposes of administering the Plan and this Agreement, will be final and binding upon Participant.  




		
	7.
	Securities Law Requirements.  If at any time the Board or Committee determines that issuing Stock pursuant to this Agreement would violate applicable securities laws, the Corporation will not be required to issue such Stock.  The Board or Committee may declare any provision of this Agreement or action of its own null and void, if it determines the provision or action fails to comply with applicable securities laws.  The Corporation may require Participant to make written representations it deems necessary or desirable to comply with applicable securities laws.




		
	8.
	Payment of Withholding Taxes.  Distribution to Participant of shares of Stock under this Agreement will be subject to Federal income and other tax withholding (and state and local income tax withholding, or non-U.S. tax withholding, if applicable) by the Corporation in respect of taxes on income realized by Participant.  The Corporation may withhold the minimum statutorily required 








EXHIBIT 10.36



amounts from future paychecks to Participant, or may require that Participant deliver to the Corporation the amounts to be withheld.  Participant agrees to allow the Corporation, upon any payment of shares of Stock to Participant under this Agreement, to withhold a portion of the shares of Stock otherwise deliverable to Participant having a Fair Market Value of the minimum tax withholding obligation (or, in the discretion of the Corporation, to satisfy up to the maximum tax withholding obligation), in satisfaction of any Federal income and other tax withholding (and any state and local income tax withholding, or non-U.S. tax withholding, if applicable).  Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, in the event that any Restricted Stock Units become subject to tax withholding before the shares of Stock subject to the Restricted Stock Units would otherwise be delivered to the Participant, the Corporation may issue a sufficient number of whole shares of Stock with respect to the Restricted Stock Units that does not exceed the minimum tax withholding obligation, which shares of Stock shall be withheld by the Corporation to satisfy its withholding obligation, in accordance with and subject to the requirements of Section 409A.  


		
	9.
	Restrictive Covenants.  Participant understands the global nature of the Corporation’s businesses and the effort the Corporation and the Chicago Board Options Exchange, Incorporated (together referred to in this Section as the “CBOE”) undertake to develop and protect their business and their competitive advantage.  Accordingly, Participant agrees that the scope and duration of the restrictions described in this Agreement are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate business interests of the CBOE.  Participant further agrees that during the period of Participant’s Service and for a period of two (2) years following Participant’s separation from Service, Participant shall not:




(a)singly, jointly, or in any other capacity, in a manner that contributes to any research, technology, development, account, trading, marketing, promotion, or sales and that relates to Participant’s Service with the CBOE, directly or beneficially, manage, join, participate in the management, operation or control of, or work for (as an employee, consultant or independent contractor), or permit the use of his name by, or provide financial or other assistance to, any options exchange regulated by the Securities and Exchange Commission or alternative trading system that directly competes with the CBOE, without the express written approval of the Chief Executive Officer;


(b)provide any service or assistance that (i) is of the general type of service or assistance provided by Participant to the CBOE, (ii) relates to any technology, account, product, project or piece of work with which Participant was involved during his Service, and (iii) contributes to causing an entity to come within the definition described in Section 9(a) above;


(c)solicit or accept if offered to Participant, with or without solicitation, on his or her own behalf or on behalf of any other person, the services of any person who is a then-current employee of the CBOE (or was an employee of the CBOE during the year preceding such solicitation), nor solicit any of the CBOE’s then-current employees (or an individual who was employed by or engaged by the CBOE during the year preceding such solicitation) to terminate employment or an engagement with the CBOE, nor agree to hire any then-current employee (or an individual who was an employee of the CBOE during the year preceding such hire) of the CBOE into employment with Participant or any company, individual or other entity; or


(d)directly or indirectly divert or attempt to divert from the CBOE any business in which the CBOE has been actively engaged during Participant’s Service, nor interfere with the relationships of the CBOE or with their sources of business.








EXHIBIT 10.36



		
	10.
	Confidentiality.  Participant acknowledges that the Corporation or an Affiliate may disclose secret or confidential information to Participant during the period of Participant’s Service to enable Participant to perform his or her duties.  Participant agrees that, subject to the following sentence, Participant shall not during his or her Service (except in connection with the proper performance of his or her duties) and thereafter, without the prior written consent of the Corporation, disclose to any person or entity any material or significant secret or confidential information concerning the business of the Corporation or an Affiliate that was obtained by Participant in the course of Participant’s Service.  This paragraph shall not be applicable if and to the extent Participant is required to testify in a legislative, judicial or regulatory proceeding pursuant to an order of Congress, any state or local legislature, a judge, or an administrative law judge, or if such secret or confidential information is required to be disclosed by Participant by any law, regulation or order of any court or regulatory commission, department or agency.  Participant further agrees that if Participant’s Service is terminated for any reason, Participant will not take, but will leave with the Corporation or an Affiliate, all records and papers and all matter of whatever nature that bears secret or confidential information of the Corporation or an Affiliate.  For purposes of this Agreement, the term “secret or confidential information” shall include, but not be limited to, any and all records, notes, memoranda, data, writings, research, personnel information, customer information, clearing members’ information, the Corporation’s and any Affiliate’s financial information and plans, processes, methods, techniques, systems, formulas, patents, models, devices, compilations or any other information of whatever nature in the possession or control of the Corporation or an Affiliate, that has not been published or disclosed to the general public, the options industry or the commodities futures industry, provided that such term shall not include knowledge, skills, and information that is common to the trade or profession of Participant.




Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement prohibits Participant from confidentially or otherwise communicating or filing a charge or complaint with a governmental or regulatory entity, participating in a governmental or regulatory entity investigation, or giving truthful testimony or making other disclosures to a governmental or regulatory entity (in each case, without having to disclose any such conduct to the Corporation or an Affiliate), or from responding if properly subpoenaed or otherwise required to do so under applicable law.  In addition, nothing in this Agreement limits Participant’s right to receive an award from a governmental or regulatory entity for information provided to such an entity (and not as compensation for actual or alleged personal injury or damages to Participant).
Pursuant to the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016 (18 U.S.C. 1833(b)), Participant shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that is made in confidence either directly or indirectly to a federal, state, or local government official, or to an attorney, solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a violation of law.  Participant shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret made in a complaint, or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal.  If Participant files a lawsuit or other action alleging retaliation by the Corporation or an Affiliate for reporting a suspected violation of law, Participant may disclose the trade secret to his or her attorney and use the trade secret in the court proceeding or other action, if Participant files any document containing the trade secret under seal and does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order.  This paragraph will govern to the extent it may conflict with any other provision of this Agreement. 
		
	11.
	Judicial Modification.  If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision of Section 9 or 10 is invalid or unenforceable, the parties agree that (a) the court 








EXHIBIT 10.36



making the determination of invalidity or unenforceability shall have the power to reduce the scope, duration, or geographic area of the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, (b) the parties shall request that the court exercise that power, and (c) this Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified after the expiration of the time within which the judgment or decision may be appealed.


		
	12.
	Remedies.  Participant agrees that in the event of a breach or threatened breach of any of the covenants contained in Sections 9 or 10 of this Agreement, in addition to any other penalties or restrictions that may apply under any employment agreement, state law, or otherwise, Participant shall forfeit, upon written notice to such effect from the Corporation, any and all Awards granted to him or her under the Plan and this Agreement, including vested Awards.  The forfeiture provisions of this Section 12 shall continue to apply, in accordance with their terms, after the provisions of any employment or other agreement between the Corporation and Participant have lapsed.  Participant consents and agrees that if Participant violates or threatens to violate any provisions of Sections 9 or 10 of this Agreement, the Corporation or its successors in interest shall be entitled, in addition to any other remedies that they may have, including money damages, to an injunction to be issued by a court of competent jurisdiction restraining Participant from committing or continuing any violation of Sections 9 or 10.  In the event that Participant is found to have breached any provision set forth in Section 9 of this Agreement, the time period provided for in that provision shall be deemed tolled (i.e., it will not begin to run) for as long as Participant was in violation of that provision.




		
	13.
	Representations and Warranties.  Participant represents and warrants to the Corporation that Participant has received a copy of the Plan and this Agreement, has read and understands the terms of the Plan and this Agreement, and agrees to be bound by their terms and conditions in all respects.




		
	14.
	No Limitation on the Corporation’s Rights.  The granting of Restricted Stock Units under this Agreement shall not and will not in any way affect the Corporation’s right or power to make adjustments, reclassifications or changes in its capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate, reincorporate, dissolve, liquidate or sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets.




		
	15.
	Plan and Agreement Not a Contract of Employment or Service.  Neither the Plan nor this Agreement is a contract of employment or Service, and no terms of Participant’s employment or Service will be affected in any way by the Plan, this Agreement or related instruments, except to the extent specifically expressed therein.  Neither the Plan nor this Agreement will be construed as conferring any legal rights of Participant to continue to be employed or remain in Service, nor will it interfere with the Corporation’s or any Affiliate’s right to discharge Participant or to deal with Participant regardless of the existence of the Plan or this Agreement.




		
	16.
	Entire Agreement and Amendment.  This Agreement and the Plan constitute the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the Restricted Stock Units, and all prior oral and written representations are merged in this Agreement and the Plan.  Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall not in any way affect the terms and provisions of the Plan.  This Agreement may be amended, modified, or terminated only in accordance with the Plan.  The headings in this Agreement are inserted for convenience and identification only and are not intended to describe, interpret, define or limit the scope, extent, or intent of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

	18.
	Successors and Assigns.  The terms of this Agreement will be binding upon the Corporation and its successors and assigns.




		
	19.
	Governing Law.  To the extent not preempted by Federal law, the Plan, this Agreement, and documents evidencing rights relating to the Plan or this Agreement will be construed, administered and governed in all respects under and by the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to its conflict of laws principles.  If any provision of this Agreement will be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions hereof will continue to be fully effective.  The jurisdiction and venue for any disputes arising under, or any action brought to enforce (or otherwise relating to), this Agreement will be exclusively in the courts in the State of Illinois, County of Cook, including the Federal Courts located therein (should Federal jurisdiction exist).




		
	20.

	22.
	Waiver; Cumulative Rights.  The failure or delay of either party to require performance by the other party of any provision of this Agreement will not affect its right to require performance of such provision unless and until such performance has been waived in writing.

Should any provision of this Agreement, or any other agreement or arrangement contemplated by this Agreement, be found not to comply with, or otherwise be exempt from, the provisions of Section 409A, such provision shall be modified and given effect (retroactively if necessary), in the sole discretion of the 








EXHIBIT 10.36



Corporation, and without the consent of Participant, in such manner as the Corporation determines to be necessary or appropriate to comply with, or to effectuate an exemption from, Section 409A. Notwithstanding the forgoing, no provision of this Agreement, or any other agreement or arrangement contemplated by this Agreement shall be construed as a guarantee by the Corporation of any particular tax effect to Participant.  Each payment made under this Agreement shall be designated as a separate payment within the meaning of Section 409A.  Any payment that is subject to Section 409A and payable upon Participant’s termination of employment or other similar event shall not be made unless Participant has experienced a “separation from service” as defined under Section 409A.  Any payment subject to Section 409A that is to be made upon a “separation from service” to Participant on any date when he or she is a “specified employee” as defined under Section 409A shall not be paid before the date that is six (6) months following Participant’s “separation from service” or, if earlier, Participant’s death.  


		
	25.
	Awards Subject to the Corporation’s Recovery of Funds Policy.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Restricted Stock Units covered by this Agreement shall be subject to the Corporation’s compensation recovery policy, as may be in effect from time to time, including, without limitation, the provisions of any such policy required by Section 10D of the Exchange Act and any applicable rules or regulations issued by the SEC or any national securities exchange or national securities association on which the Stock may be traded.




		
	26.
	Addendum to Agreement.  Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if Participant resides or is employed outside the U.S. or transfers residence or employment outside the U.S., the Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to such special terms and conditions as are set forth in the addendum to this agreement (the “Addendum”).  Further, if Participant transfers residency and/or employment to another country, any special terms and conditions for such country will apply to the Restricted Stock Units to the extent the Corporation determines, in its sole discretion, that the application of such terms and conditions is necessary or advisable in order to comply with local law or to facilitate the operation and administration of the Restricted Stock Units and the Plan (or the Corporation may establish alternative terms and conditions as may be necessary or advisable to accommodate Participant’s transfer).  In all circumstances, the Addendum shall constitute part of this Agreement.




IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Corporation and Participant have duly executed this Agreement as of the date first written above.

ADDENDUM


CBOE HOLDINGS, INC. LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN
RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT


This Addendum to the Agreement includes additional terms and conditions that govern the Restricted Stock Units if Participant resides and/or is employed outside of the United States or transfers residence or employment outside the United States.  Certain capitalized terms used but not defined in this Addendum have the meanings set forth in the Agreement or the Plan.
		
	1.
	Nature of Grant.  In accepting the Restricted Stock Units, Participant acknowledges that:


(a)the Plan is established voluntarily by the Corporation, is discretionary in nature and may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Corporation at any time, to the extent permitted by the Plan;


(b)the award of the Restricted Stock Units is exceptional, discretionary, voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of Restricted Stock Units, or benefits in lieu of Restricted Stock Units, even if Restricted Stock Units have been granted in the past;


(c)all decisions with respect to future Restricted Stock Unit awards, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Corporation; 


(d)Participant is voluntarily participating in the Plan; 


(e)the Restricted Stock Units and any shares of Stock that may be received in settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, and the income and value of same, (i) are an extraordinary item that does not constitute compensation of any kind for services of any kind rendered to the Corporation or the Affiliate that employs Participant (the “Employer”), and which is outside the scope of Participant’s employment contract, if any, (ii) are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation, and (iii) are not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purpose, including, but not limited to, calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, end-of-service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar payments; 


(f)the Restricted Stock Unit award will not be interpreted to form an employment contract or relationship with the Corporation or any Affiliate, nor does it amend any legal relationship or legal entitlement between Participant and the Employer; 


(g)this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereunder and the vesting schedule set forth herein do not constitute an express or implied promise of Participant’s further employment for the vesting period, for any period, or at all, and will not interfere with Participant’s right or the right of the Corporation or the Employer to terminate Participant’s employment relationship at any time with or without cause;


(h)unless otherwise agreed with the Corporation, the Restricted Stock Units and the shares of Stock underlying the Restricted Stock Units, and the income and value of same, are not granted as consideration for, or in connection with, the service Participant may provide as a director of an Affiliate;






EXHIBIT 10.36





(i)the future value of the underlying shares of Stock is unknown, indeterminable and cannot be predicted with certainty; 


(j)neither the Corporation, the Employer nor any Affiliate shall be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between Participant’s local currency and the United States Dollar that may affect the value of the Restricted Stock Units or of any amounts due to Participant pursuant to the settlement of the Restricted Stock Units or the sale of any shares of Stock Participant may acquire upon such settlement;


(k)in consideration of the grant of the Restricted Stock Units, no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from termination of the Restricted Stock Units or diminution in value of the Restricted Stock Units or shares of Stock acquired upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units resulting from Participant’s termination of Service (for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of local labor laws) and Participant irrevocably releases the Company and the Employer from any such claim that may arise; and


(l)the Restricted Stock Units and the benefits evidenced by this Agreement do not create any entitlement not otherwise specifically provided for in the Plan or provided by the Corporation in its discretion, to have the Restricted Stock Units or any such benefits transferred to, or assumed by, another company or to be exchanged, cashed out or substituted for, in connection with any corporate transaction affecting the shares of the Corporation.


		
	2.
	Participants in the European Union.  If Participant resides and/or is employed in a European Union member state, the following provision shall replace Section 3(b) of the Agreement in its entirety and any other provisions regarding Retirement Vesting shall be disregarded and of no effect:


(b)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Restricted Stock Units will vest in full upon the earliest to occur of (i) Participant’s death, (ii) Participant’s becoming Disabled, provided that such condition qualifies as “disability” for purposes of Section 409A, or (iii) Participant's termination of Service after a Change in Control, for a reason other than Cause, in each case, if prior to any forfeiture event under Section 3(c) below.
		
	3.
	Payment of Withholding Taxes.  Participant acknowledges and agrees that if Participant is subject to tax and/or social contributions in more than one jurisdiction, the Corporation or its Affiliate(s) may be required to withhold or account for taxes and/or social contributions in more than one jurisdiction, in accordance with the methods of withholding described in Section 8 of the Agreement.


		
	4.
	Data Privacy.  Participant hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of Participant’s personal data as described in this Agreement and any other Restricted Stock Unit grant materials by and among, as applicable, the Employer, the Corporation, and its Affiliates for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing Participant’s participation in the Plan.


Participant understands that the Corporation and the Employer may hold certain personal information about Participant, including, but not limited to, Participant’s name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any shares of Stock or directorships held in the Corporation, details of all Restricted Stock Units or any other entitlement to shares of Stock awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or 






EXHIBIT 10.36



outstanding in Participant’s favor (“Data”), for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Plan.
Participant understands that Data will be transferred to such stock plan service provider as may be selected by the Corporation to assist the Corporation with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan.  Participant understands that the recipients of the Data may be located in the United States or elsewhere, and that the recipients’ country (e.g., the United States) may have different data privacy laws and protections than Participant’s country.  Participant understands that he or she may request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Data by contacting Participant’s human resources representative.  Participant authorizes the Corporation, the Employer and any other possible recipients which may assist the Corporation (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 Participant’s participation in the Plan, including any requisite transfer of such Data as may be required to a broker, escrow agent or other third party with whom any shares of Stock may be deposited.
Participant understands that Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage his or her participation in the Plan.  Participant understands that Participant may, at any time, view Data, request 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 his or her human resources representative.  
Further, Participant understands that Participant is providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis.  If Participant does not consent, or later seeks to revoke his or her consent, Participant’s employment status or service and career with the Employer will not be adversely affected; the only consequence of refusing or withdrawing consent is that the Corporation would not be able to grant Restricted Stock Units or other equity awards to Participant or administer or maintain such awards.  Therefore, Participant understands that refusing or withdrawing his or her consent may affect Participant’s ability to participate in the Plan.  For more information on the consequences of Participant’s refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, Participant understands that Participant may contact his or her human resources representative.
		
	5.
	No Advice Regarding Grant.  The Corporation is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Corporation making any recommendations regarding Participant’s participation in the Plan, or Participant’s acquisition or sale of the underlying shares of Stock.  Participant should consult with his or her own personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding Participant’s participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan.


		
	6.
	Imposition of Other Requirements.  The Corporation reserves the right to impose other requirements on Participant’s participation in the Plan, on the Restricted Stock Units and on any shares of Stock acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Corporation determines it is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons.  Such requirements may include (but are not limited to) requiring Participant to sign any agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing.


		
	7.
	Insider Trading/Market Abuse Laws.  Participant acknowledges that Participant may be subject to insider trading restrictions and/or market abuse laws in applicable jurisdictions, including the United States and Participant’s country, which may affect Participant’s ability to acquire or sell shares of Stock or rights to shares of Stock (e.g., Restricted Stock Units) under the Plan during such times as Participant is considered to have “inside information” regarding the Corporation (as defined by the 








EXHIBIT 10.36



laws in Participant’s country).  Any restrictions under these laws or regulations are separate from and in addition to any restrictions that may be imposed under any applicable Corporation insider trading policy.  Participant acknowledges that it is his or her responsibility to be informed of and compliant with such regulations, and should speak to his or her personal advisor on this matter.
		
	8.
	Foreign Asset/Account Reporting; Exchange Controls.  Participant’s country may have certain foreign asset and/or account reporting requirements and/or exchange controls which may affect Participant’s ability to acquire or hold shares of Stock under the Plan or cash received from participating in the Plan (including from any dividends received or sale proceeds arising from the sale of shares of Stock) in a brokerage or bank account outside Participant’s country.  Participant may be required to report such accounts, assets or transactions to the tax or other authorities in his or her country.  Participant also may be required to repatriate sale proceeds or other funds received as a result of Participant’s participation in the Plan to his or her country through a designated bank or broker and/or within a certain time after receipt.  Participant acknowledges that it is his or her responsibility to be compliant with such regulations, and Participant should consult his or her personal legal advisor for any details.

ANNEX






EXHIBIT 10.36



This Annex to the Addendum includes additional terms and conditions that govern the Restricted Stock Units if Participant resides and/or is employed in the country addressed herein or transfers residence or employment to the country addressed herein.  If Participant transfers residence and/or employment to another country, the Corporation may establish alternative terms and conditions as may be necessary or advisable to accommodate Participant’s transfer.  Certain capitalized terms used but not defined in this Annex have the meanings set forth in the Agreement (including the Addendum) or the Plan.

	1.
	Payment of Withholding Taxes.  The following provision supplements Section 8 of the Agreement:


If payment or withholding of the income tax due is not made within 90 days after the end of the U.K. tax year in which the relevant taxable or tax withholding event occurs, or such other period as specified under U.K. law (the “Due Date”), and assuming Participant is not a director or executive officer of the Corporation (within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), Participant agrees that the amount of any uncollected tax shall constitute a loan owed by Participant to the Employer, effective on the Due Date.  Participant agrees that the loan will bear interest at the then-current official rate of Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs (“HMRC”) and it will be immediately due and repayable, and the Corporation and/or the Employer may recover it at any time thereafter by any of the means referred to in Section 8 of the Agreement.  If Participant is a director or executive officer of the Corporation and the amount necessary to satisfy applicable tax obligations is not collected from or paid by Participant by the Due Date, any uncollected income tax may constitute a benefit to Participant on which additional income tax and national insurance contributions (“NICs”) may be payable.  Participant understands that he or she will be responsible for reporting and paying any income tax due on this additional benefit directly to HMRC under the self-assessment regime, and for reimbursing the Corporation or the Employer (as appropriate) for the value of any employee NICs due on this additional benefit, which the Corporation or the Employer may recover from Participant by any means referred to in Section 8 of the Agreement.
		
	2.
	Exclusion of Claim.  Participant acknowledges and agrees that Participant will have no entitlement to compensation or damages insofar as such entitlement arises or may arise from Participant’s ceasing to have rights under or to be entitled to the Restricted Stock Units, whether or not as a result of termination of Service (whether such termination is in breach of contract or otherwise), or from the loss or diminution in value of the Restricted Stock Units.  Upon the award of the Restricted Stock Units, Participant shall be deemed irrevocably to have waived any such entitlement.


		
	3.
	Exit from the European Union.  Should the United Kingdom exit the European Union, the terms of Section 2 of the Addendum (Participants in the European Union) shall continue to apply to the Restricted Stock Units unless otherwise determined by the Corporation, in its sole discretion. Alternatively, the Corporation may establish alternative terms and conditions as may be necessary or advisable to comply with applicable law.
