CONCENTRIX CORPORATION
2020 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN
RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT


SECTION 1.    PAYMENT FOR SHARES.


    No cash payment is required for the Shares that you are receiving.  You are receiving the Shares as consideration for Services rendered by you.


SECTION 2.  GOVERNING PLAN.


    The Shares that you are receiving are granted pursuant and subject in all respects to the applicable provisions of the Concentrix Corporation 2020 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), which is incorporated herein by reference.  Terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement have meanings ascribed to them in the Plan.


SECTION 3.    VESTING.


    The Shares that you are receiving will vest as shown in the Notice of Restricted Stock Award.  


    No additional shares vest after your Service as an Employee or a Consultant has terminated for any reason.


SECTION 4.    SHARES RESTRICTED.


    Unvested Shares will be considered “Restricted Shares.” You may not sell, transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise dispose of Restricted Shares without the written consent of the Company, except as provided in the next sentence.  You may transfer Restricted Shares to your spouse, children or grandchildren or to a trust established by you for the benefit of yourself or your spouse, children or grandchildren.  However, a transferee of Restricted Shares must agree in writing on a form prescribed by the Company to be bound by all provisions of this Agreement.


SECTION 5.    FORFEITURE.


    If your Service terminates for any reason, then your Shares will be forfeited to the extent that they have not vested before the termination date and do not vest as a result of termination.  This means that the Restricted Shares will immediately revert to the Company.  You receive no payment for Restricted Shares that are forfeited.  The Company determines when your Service terminates for this purpose and all purposes under the Plan, and its determinations are conclusive and binding on all persons.




      






SECTION 6.    LEAVES OF ABSENCE AND PART-TIME WORK.


    For purposes of this Award, your Service does not terminate and your vesting will continue when you go on a military leave, a sick leave or another bona fide leave of absence, if the leave of absence was approved by the Company in writing and if continued crediting of Service is required by the terms of the leave or by applicable law.  But your Service terminates when the approved leave ends, unless you immediately return to active work.


    If you go on a leave of absence of more than eight (8) weeks, then the vesting schedule specified in the Notice of Restricted Stock Award may be adjusted in accordance with the Company’s leave of absence policy or the terms of your leave. If you commence working on a part-time basis, then the vesting schedule specified in the Notice of Restricted Stock Award may be adjusted in accordance with the Company’s part-time work policy or the terms of an agreement between you and the Company pertaining to your part-time schedule.


SECTION 7.    STOCK CERTIFICATES.


    The certificates for Restricted Shares have stamped on them a special legend referring to the forfeiture restrictions.  In addition to or in lieu of imposing the legend, the Company may hold the certificates in escrow.  As your vested percentage increases, you may request (at reasonable intervals) that the Company release to you a non-legended certificate for your vested shares. 


SECTION 8.  SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS.


    During the period of time between the date of grant and the date the Shares become vested, you shall have all the rights of a shareholder with respect to the Shares except for the right to transfer the Shares, as set forth in Section 4.  Accordingly, you shall have the right to vote the Shares and to receive any cash dividends paid with respect to the Shares. 


SECTION 9. WITHHOLDING TAXES.


    Regardless of any action the Company and/or the Subsidiary or Affiliate employing you (the “Employer”) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), you acknowledge that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by you is and remains your responsibility and that the Company and/or your Employer (1) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Shares received under this Award, including the award or vesting of such Shares, the subsequent sale of Shares under this Award and the receipt of any dividends; and (2) do not commit to structure the terms of the Award to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related Items.


    No Shares will be released to you unless you have paid or made arrangements acceptable to the Company and/or your Employer to satisfy all withholding and payment on account 
- 2 -






obligations of the Company and/or your Employer.  In this regard, you authorize the Company and/or your Employer to withhold all applicable Tax-Related Items legally payable by you from your wages or other cash compensation paid to you by the Company and/or your Employer.  With  the Company’s consent, these arrangements may also include, if permissible under local law, (a) withholding Shares that otherwise would be delivered to you when they vest having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount necessary to satisfy the maximum legally required withholding amount, (b) having the Company withhold taxes from the proceeds of the sale of the Shares, or (c) any other arrangement approved by the Company.  The fair market value of the Shares you surrender, determined as of the date when taxes otherwise would have been withheld in cash, will be applied as credit against the withholding taxes.  Finally, you will pay to the Company or your Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or your Employer may be required to withhold as a result of your participation in the Plan or your acquisition of Shares that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described.  The Company may refuse to deliver the Shares if you fail to comply with your obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items as described in this section.


SECTION 10.  RESTRICTIONS ON RESALE.


    You agree not to sell any Shares at a time when applicable laws, Company policies or an agreement between the Company and its underwriters prohibit a sale.  This restriction will apply as long as your Service continues and for such period of time after the termination of your Service as the Company may specify.


SECTION 11.  NO RETENTION RIGHTS.


    Neither your Award nor this Agreement gives you the right to be employed or retained by the Company or a subsidiary of the Company in any capacity.  The Company and its subsidiaries reserve the right to terminate your Service at any time, with or without cause.


SECTION 12.  ADJUSTMENTS.


    In the event of a stock split, a stock dividend or a similar change in Company stock, or an extraordinary dividend, or a merger or a reorganization of the Company, the forfeiture provision of Section 5 will apply to all new, substitute or additional securities or other properties to which you are entitled by reason of your ownership of the shares. 


SECTION 13.  NOTICE.
    Any notice required or permitted under this Agreement will be given in writing and will be deemed effectively given upon the earliest of personal delivery, receipt or the third (3rd) full day following mailing with postage and fees prepaid, addressed to the other party hereto at the address last known in the Company’s records or at such other address as such party may designate by ten (10) days’ advance written notice to the other party hereto.
