Exhibit 10.6





ALIGN TECHNOLOGY, INC.
2005 INCENTIVE PLAN
(amended May 16, 2016)


RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT 
1.    Grant.  The Company hereby grants to Participant under the Align Technology, Inc. 2005 Incentive Plan (the “Plan”)  an Award of Restricted Stock Units, subject to all of the terms and conditions in the Notice of Grant, this Agreement, including any country-specific terms and conditions contained in an appendix hereto (collectively, the “Agreement”) and the Plan.  Capitalized terms not specifically defined herein shall have the same meanings ascribed to them in the Plan.
2.    Company’s Obligation to Pay.  Each Restricted Stock Unit represents a value equal to the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date it becomes vested.  Unless and until the Restricted Stock Units will have vested in the manner set forth in Sections 3 and 4 below, Participant will have no right to payment of any such Restricted Stock Units.  Prior to actual payment of any vested Restricted Stock Units, such Restricted Stock Unit will represent an unsecured obligation of the Company, payable (if at all) only from the general assets of the Company.
3.    Vesting Schedule.  Subject to Section 4 below, the Restricted Stock Units awarded under this Agreement will vest according to the vesting schedule set forth on the attached Notice of Grant, subject to Participant continuing to be a Service Provider through each such date.
4.    Forfeiture upon Termination of Status as a Service Provider.  Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, if Participant ceases to be a Service Provider for any reason (as further described in Section 10(j) below), the then-unvested Restricted Stock Units awarded under this Agreement will thereupon be forfeited at no cost to the Company and Participant will have no further rights thereunder.
5.    Payment after Vesting.  Any Restricted Stock Units that vest in accordance with Section 3 will be paid to Participant (or in the event of Participant’s death, as set forth in Section 6 below) in whole Shares, subject to Participant satisfying any applicable Tax-Related Items as set forth in Section 7.  Subject to the provisions of Section 9, the vested Restricted Stock Units shall be paid as soon as practicable after vesting, but in each such case within the period sixty (60) days following the vesting date.  In no event will Participant be permitted, directly or indirectly, to specify the taxable year of the payment of any Restricted Stock Units payable under this Agreement.
6.    Payments after Death.  Any distribution or delivery to be made to Participant under this Agreement will, if Participant is then deceased, be made pursuant to applicable laws of descent and distribution in Participant’s country.  Any such transferee must furnish the Company with (a) written notice of his or her status as transferee, and (b) evidence satisfactory to the Company to establish the validity of the transfer and compliance with any laws or regulations pertaining to said transfer.
7.    Responsibility for Taxes.  Participant acknowledges that, regardless of any action taken by the Company or, if different, Participant’s employer (the “Employer”), the ultimate liability for all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to Participant’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to Participant (“Tax-Related Items”), is and remains Participant’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the Employer.  Participant further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (1) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Restricted Stock Unit, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting or settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such settlement, and the receipt of any dividends or dividend equivalents; and (2) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Restricted Stock Unit to reduce or eliminate Participant’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result.  Further, if Participant is subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction, 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.
Prior to any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, Participant agrees to make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy any applicable withholding obligations for Tax-Related Items.  In this regard, Participant authorizes the Company and/or the Employer, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy their withholding obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following:  
(a)withholding from Participant’s wages or other cash compensation paid to Participant by the Company and/or the Employer; or
(b)withholding from proceeds of the sale of Shares acquired upon settlement of the Restricted Stock Units either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on Participant’s behalf pursuant to this authorization without further consent); or 
(c)withholding in Shares to be issued upon settlement of the Restricted Stock Units.
Notwithstanding the above, in the event that Participant is a Section 16 officer of the Company under the Exchange Act, then the Company will withhold Shares to be issued upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, or in the event that withholding in Shares is problematic under applicable tax or securities law or has materially adverse tax consequences.
Depending on the withholding method, the Company 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 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, Participant is deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject to the vested Restricted Stock Units, notwithstanding that a number of the Shares are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items.
Finally, Participant agrees to pay to the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for as a result of Participant’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described.  The Company may refuse to issue or deliver the Shares or the proceeds of the sale of Shares, if Participant fails to comply with Participant’s obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.  If Participant does not accept the terms of this Agreement including this Section 7, then at the time any applicable Restricted Stock Units otherwise are scheduled to vest pursuant to Section 3, Participant will permanently forfeit such Restricted Stock Units to the Company at no cost to the Company and Participant will have no rights whatsoever to receive any Shares hereunder.
8.    Rights as Stockholder.  Neither Participant nor any person claiming under or through Participant will have any of the rights or privileges of a stockholder of the Company in respect of any Shares deliverable hereunder, unless and until certificates or other evidence of ownership representing such Shares will have been issued, recorded on the records of the Company or its transfer agents or registrars, and delivered to Participant.
9.    Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or this Agreement to the contrary, if the vesting of the balance, or some lesser portion of the balance, of the Restricted Stock Units is accelerated in connection with Participant’s termination as a Service Provider (provided that such termination is a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A, as determined by the Company), other than due to death, and if (a) Participant is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A at the time of such termination as a Service Provider and (b) the payment of such accelerated Restricted Stock Units will result in the imposition of additional tax under Section 409A if paid to Participant on or within the six (6) month period following Participant’s termination as a Service Provider, then the payment of such accelerated Restricted Stock Units will not be made until the date six (6) months and one (1) day following the date of Participant’s termination as a Service Provider, unless the Participant dies following his or her termination as a Service Provider, in which case, the Restricted Stock Units will be paid in Shares to the Participant’s estate as soon as practicable following his or her death.  It is the intent of this Agreement that it and all payments and benefits hereunder be exempt from, or comply with, the requirements of Section 409A so that none of the Restricted Stock Units provided under this Agreement or Shares issuable thereunder will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities herein will be interpreted to be so exempt or so comply.  Each payment payable under this Agreement is intended to constitute a separate payment for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2).  For purposes of this Agreement, “Section 409A” means Section 409A of the Code, and any final Treasury Regulations and Internal Revenue Service guidance thereunder, as each may be amended from time to time.
10.    Nature of Grant.  In accepting the grant, Participant acknowledges, understands and agrees that:
(a)the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, it is discretionary in nature and it may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time, to the extent permitted by the Plan;
(b)the grant of the Restricted Stock Units is exceptional, 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 or other grants, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company; 
(d)the Restricted Stock Unit grant and Participant’s participation in the Plan shall not create a right to employment or service, or be interpreted as forming or amending an employment or service contract with the Company, the Employer, or any Affiliate and shall not interfere with the ability of the Company, the Employer, or any Affiliate to terminate Participant’s employment or status as a Service Provider (if any); 
(e)Participant is voluntarily participating in the Plan; 
(f)the Restricted Stock Units and the Shares subject to the Restricted Stock Units and the income from and value of same, are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation; 
(g)the Restricted Stock Units and the Shares subject to the Restricted Stock Units and the income from and value of same, are not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purpose, including, without limitation, the calculating of any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, end-of-service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or any other similar payments, and in no event should be considered as compensation for, or relating in any way to, past services for the Company, the Employer, or any Affiliate;
(h)the future value of the underlying Shares is unknown, indeterminable and cannot be predicted with certainty; 
(i)unless otherwise agreed with the Company, the Restricted Stock Units and the Shares subject to the Restricted Stock Units, and the income from 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;
(j)no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from forfeiture of the Restricted Stock Units resulting from Participant’s ceasing to provide employment or other services to the Company or the Employer (for any reason whatsoever, whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction where Participant is employed or the terms of Participant’s employment agreement, if any) and in consideration of the grant of the Restricted Stock Units, Participant agrees not to institute any claim against the Company, any of its Affiliates, or the Employer;
(k)for purposes of this Agreement, Participant’s relationship as a Service Provider will be considered terminated as of the date Participant is no longer actively providing services to the Company or one of its Affiliates or the Employer (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 Participant is employed or the terms of Participant’s employment agreement, if any), and unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or determined by the Company, Participant’s right to vest in the Restricted Stock Units under the Plan, if any, will terminate effective as of such date and will not be extended by any notice period (e.g., active services would not include any contractual notice period or any period of “garden leave” or similar period mandated under employment laws in the jurisdiction where Participant is employed or the terms of Participant’s employment agreement, if any); the Administrator shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when Participant is no longer actively providing services for purposes of the Restricted Stock Unit grant (including whether Participant may still be considered to be providing services while on an approved leave of absence);
(l)unless otherwise provided in the Plan or by the Company in its discretion, the Restricted Stock Units and the benefits evidenced by this Agreement do not create any entitlement to have the Restricted Stock Units or any such benefits transferred to, or assumed by, another company nor to be exchanged, cashed out or substituted for, in connection with any corporate transaction affecting the Shares; and
(m)neither the Company, 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 the subsequent sale of any Shares acquired upon settlement.
11.    No Advice Regarding Grant.  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 Participant’s acquisition or sale of the underlying Shares.  Participant understands and agrees that he or she should consult with his or her own personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding his or her participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan.
12.    Data Privacy.  
(a)Data Collection and Usage. The Company and the Employer will collect, process and use certain personal information about Participant, specifically, Participant’s name, home address, email address and telephone number, date of birth, social security or insurance number, passport number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any Shares or directorships held in the Company, details of all Restricted Stock Units or any other entitlement to Shares awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in Participant’s favor (“Data”), for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Plan. The legal basis, where required, for the processing of Data is Participant’s consent. In addition to the above-identified recipients and where required under applicable law, Data also may be disclosed to certain securities or other regulatory authorities where the Company’s securities are listed or traded or regulatory filings are made. The legal basis, where required, for such disclosure is compliance with applicable law.
(b)Stock Plan Administration Service Providers. The Company and the Employer transfer Data to ETRADE, the designated broker assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. Upon transfer of Participant’s Data to ETRADE, Participant may be asked to agree to separate terms and data processing practices with ETRADE with such agreement being a condition of the ability to participate in the Plan. 
(c)Other Service Provider Data Recipients. The Company also may transfer Data to other third party service providers, if necessary to ensure compliance with applicable tax, exchange control, securities and labor law. Such third party service providers may include the Company’s legal counsel as well as its auditor/accountant/third party vendor (currently PwC). Wherever possible, the Company will anonymize data, but Participant understands that his or her Data may need to be transferred to such providers to ensure compliance with applicable law and/or tax requirements.
(d)International Data Transfers. The Company, ETRADE and its other service providers described above under (c) are located in the United States. The United States may have different data privacy laws and protections than Participant’s country of residence (or country of employment, if different). The Company’s legal basis, where required, for the transfer of Data is Participant’s consent.
(e)Data Retention. 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. When the Company no longer needs the Data, the Company will remove it from its systems. 
(f)Data Subject Rights. Participant understands that Participant may have the right under applicable law to (i) access or copy Data that the Company possesses, (ii) rectify incorrect Data, (iii) delete Data, (iv) restrict processing of Data, (vi) lodge complaints with the competent supervisory authorities in Participant’s jurisdiction. To receive clarification regarding these rights or to exercise these rights, Participant understands that Participant can contact his or her local human resources representative.
(g)Voluntariness and Consequences of Consent, Denial or Withdrawal. Participation in the Plan is voluntary and Participant understands that Participant is providing the consent 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 Company 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. 
(h)Declaration of Consent. Participant hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, processing and use, in electronic or other form, of Participant’s Data by the Company and the transfer of Data to the recipients mentioned above, including recipients located in countries which do not adduce an adequate level of protection from a European (or other non-U.S.) data protection law perspective, for the purposes described above.

14.    Grant is Not Transferable.

16.    Additional Conditions to Issuance of Shares; Compliance with Law.  Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or this Agreement, unless there is an available exemption from any registration, qualification or other legal requirement applicable to the Shares, the Company shall not be required to deliver any Shares issuable upon settlement of the Restricted Stock Units prior to the completion of any registration or qualification of the Shares under any local, state, federal or foreign securities or exchange control law or under rulings or regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) or of any other governmental regulatory body, or prior to obtaining any approval or other clearance from any local, state, federal or foreign governmental agency, which registration, qualification or approval the Company shall, in its absolute discretion deem necessary or advisable.  Participant understands that the Company is under no obligation to register or qualify the Shares with the SEC or any state or foreign securities commission or to seek approval or clearance from any governmental authority for the issuance or sale of Shares.

All actions taken and all interpretations and determinations made by the Administrator in good faith will be final and binding upon Participant, the Company and all other interested persons.  No member of the Administrator will be personally liable for any action, determination or interpretation made in good faith with respect to the Plan or this Agreement.

Participant hereby consents to receive such documents by electronic delivery and agrees to participate in the Plan through an on-line or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or another third party designated by the Company.
20.    Captions.  Captions provided herein are for convenience only and are not to serve as a basis for interpretation or construction of this Agreement.
21.    Agreement Severable.  In the event that any provision in this Agreement will be held invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part, such provision will be severable from, and such invalidity or unenforceability will not be construed to have any effect on, the remaining provisions of this Agreement.
22.    Governing Law and Venue.  The grant of the Restricted Stock Units and this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of California, without giving effect to the conflict of law principles thereof.  For purposes of any action, lawsuit or other proceedings brought to enforce this Agreement, relating to it, or arising from it, the parties hereby submit to and consent to the sole and exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Santa Clara County, California, or the federal courts for the United States for the Northern District of California, and no other courts, where this Award of Restricted Stock Units is made and/or to be performed.

26.    Insider Trading/Market Abuse Laws.  Participant acknowledges that, depending on Participant’s country of residence, the broker’s country, or the country in which the Shares are listed, he or she may be subject to insider trading and/or market abuse laws in applicable jurisdictions, which may affect Participant's ability to, directly or indirectly,  accept, acquire, sell or attempt to sell or otherwise dispose of Shares, or rights to Shares (e.g., Restricted Stock Units), or rights linked to the value of Shares, during such times as Participant is considered to have “inside information” regarding the Company (as defined by the laws or regulations in the applicable jurisdiction or Participant's country).  Local insider trading laws and regulations may prohibit the cancellation or amendment of orders Participant placed before possessing the inside information.  Furthermore, Participant may be prohibited from (i) disclosing the inside information to any third party, including fellow employees (other than on a “need to know” basis) and (ii) “tipping” third parties or causing them to otherwise buy or sell securities.  Any restrictions under these laws or regulations are separate from and in addition to any restrictions that may be imposed under any applicable Company insider trading policy.  Participant acknowledges that it is his or her responsibility to be informed of and compliant with any such laws, and Participant should speak to his or her personal advisor on this matter.
27.    Exchange Control Tax and Foreign Asset/Account Reporting Requirements.  Participant acknowledges that there may be exchange control, tax, foreign asset and/or account reporting requirements which may affect Participant’s ability to acquire or hold Shares acquired under the Plan or cash received from participating in the Plan (including from any dividends paid on Shares acquired under the Plan) in a brokerage, bank account or legal entity outside Participant’s country.  Participant may be required to report such accounts, balances, assets and/or the related 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 within a certain time after receipt.  Participant acknowledges that it is Participant’s responsibility to be compliant with such regulations, and Participant should consult his or her personal legal advisor for any details.    
28.    Waiver.  Participant acknowledges that a waiver by the Company of breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement, or of any subsequent breach by Participant or any other Participant.
By clicking on the “I accept” button, Participant represents that he or she is familiar with the terms and provisions of the Plan, and hereby accepts this Agreement subject to all of the terms and provisions thereof.  Participant has reviewed the Plan and this Agreement in their entirety, has had an opportunity to obtain the advice of counsel prior to accepting this Agreement and fully understands all provisions of this Agreement.

APPENDIX
Align Technology, Inc.
2005 Incentive Plan
Restricted Stock Unit Agreement 
This Appendix to the Restricted Stock Unit Agreement (the “Agreement”) includes additional terms and conditions that govern the grant of Restricted Stock Units in Participant’s country.  Capitalized terms not explicitly defined in this Appendix have the definitions ascribed to them in the Align Technology, Inc. 2005 Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) and/or the Agreement.
This Appendix also includes information regarding exchange controls and certain other issues of which Participant should be aware with respect to Participant’s participation in the Plan.  The information is based on the securities, exchange control and other laws in effect in the respective countries as of January 2019.  Such laws are often complex and change frequently.  As a result, the Company strongly recommends that Participant not rely on the information noted herein as the only source of information relating to the consequences of Participant’s participation in the Plan because the information may be out of date at vesting of the Restricted Stock Units or the subsequent sale of the Shares or the receipt of any dividends or dividend equivalents.


In addition, the information is general in nature and may not apply to Participant’s particular situation, and the Company is not in a position to assure Participant of any particular result.  Accordingly, Participant is advised to seek appropriate professional advice as to how the relevant laws in Participant’s country may apply to Participant’s situation.


Finally, if Participant is a citizen or resident of a country other than the one in which Participant is currently working, transfers employment to another country after the Restricted Stock Units are granted, or is considered a resident of another country for local law purposes, the information contained herein may not be applicable to Participant.

Foreign Asset/Account Reporting Information. Canadian taxpayers are required to report any foreign assets (including Shares acquired under the Plan and, likely, unvested RSUs) with a cost exceeding CAD 100,000 on Form T1135 (Foreign Income Verification Statement) on an annual basis.  For Shares acquired under the Plan, cost generally is the adjusted cost basis (“ACB”), which would ordinarily be equal the fair market value of the Shares at the time of acquisition.  If, however, a Canadian taxpayer owns other shares in the Company, the ACB of the Shares acquired under the Plan will need to be leveraged with the ACB of the other Shares.  The statement is due at the same time as the taxpayer’s annual tax return.  Taxpayers are advised to check with their personal advisor regarding the reporting obligations.

The following terms and conditions will apply to Participants who are subject to exchange control restrictions and regulations in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”), including requirements imposed by the State Administration of Foreign Exchange (“SAFE”), as determined by the Company in its sole discretion. 


Termination of Service Relationship.  Due to exchange control laws in the PRC, Participant agrees that the Company reserves the right to require the sale of any Shares acquired at vesting of the Restricted Stock Units upon the termination of Participant’s relationship as a Service Provider for any reason. If the Company, in its discretion, does not exercise its right to require the automatic sale of Shares issuable upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, as described in the preceding sentence, Participant understands and agrees that any Shares acquired by Participant under the Plan must be sold no later than three (3) months after termination of Participant’s relationship as a Service Provider, or within any other such time frame as permitted by the Company or required for legal or administrative reasons. Participant understands that any Shares acquired under the Plan that have not been sold within three (3) months of termination of Participant’s relationship as a Service Provider will be automatically sold by a designated broker at the Company’s discretion, pursuant to this authorization by Participant.


Participant agrees that the Company is authorized to instruct its designated broker to assist with the mandatory sale of such Shares (on Participant’s behalf, pursuant to this authorization) and Participant expressly authorizes the Company’s designated broker to complete the sale of such Shares. Participant also agrees to sign any agreements, forms, and/or consents that may be reasonably requested by the Company (or the designated broker) to effectuate the sale of the Shares (including, without limitation, as to the transfers of the proceeds and other exchange control matters noted below) and shall otherwise cooperate with the Company with respect to such matters, provided that Participant shall not be permitted to exercise any influence over how, when or whether the sales occur.  Participant acknowledges that the Company’s designated broker is under no obligation to arrange for the sale of the Shares at any particular price. Due to fluctuations in the Share price and/or applicable exchange rates between vesting and (if later) the date on which the Shares are sold, the amount of proceeds ultimately distributed to Participant may be more or less than the market value of the Shares upon vesting (which is the amount relevant to determining Participant’s liability for Tax-Related Items). Participant understands and agrees that the Company is not responsible for the amount of any loss Participant may incur and the Company assumes no liability for any fluctuations in the Share price and/or any applicable exchange rate.


Upon the sale of the Shares, the Company agrees to pay the cash proceeds from the sale (less any Tax-Related Items, brokerage fees and commissions) to Participant in accordance with the applicable exchange control laws and regulations including but not limited to the restrictions set forth in this Appendix for China below under “Exchange Control Restrictions.”


Exchange Control Restrictions.  Participant understands and agrees that, pursuant to local exchange control requirements, Participant will be required to immediately repatriate any cash payments or proceeds obtained with respect to participation in the Plan to the PRC. Participant further understands that such repatriation of any cash payments or proceeds may need to be effectuated through a special exchange control account established by the Company or any Affiliate, and Participant hereby consents and agrees that any payment or proceeds may be transferred to such special account prior to being delivered to Participant. Any payment or proceeds may be paid to Participant in U.S. dollars or local currency at the Company’s discretion. If the payments or proceeds are paid to Participant in U.S. dollars, Participant will be required to set up a U.S. dollar bank account in the PRC (if Participant does not already have one) so that the payments or proceeds may be deposited into this account. If the payments or proceeds are paid to Participant in local currency, the Company is under no obligation to secure any particular currency exchange rate and the Company may face delays in converting the payments or proceeds to local currency due to exchange control restrictions.  Participant agrees to bear any currency exchange rate fluctuation risk between the time the cash proceeds are received and the time the cash proceeds are distributed to Participant through the special account described above. Participant further agrees to comply with any other requirements that may be imposed by the Company in the future to facilitate compliance with exchange control requirements in the PRC

SPAIN


Terms and Conditions


No Entitlement for Claims or Compensation.  The following provision supplements Section 10 of the Agreement:


By accepting the Restricted Stock Units, Participant consents to participation in the Plan and acknowledges that the he or she has received a copy of the Plan document.


Participant understands that the Company has unilaterally, gratuitously and in its sole discretion decided to grant Restricted Stock Units under the Plan to individuals who may be Service Providers throughout the world.  The decision is limited and entered into based upon the express assumption and condition that any Restricted Stock Units will not economically or otherwise bind the Company or any Parent or Affiliate, including the Employer, on an ongoing basis, other than as expressly set forth in the Agreement.  Consequently, Participant understands that the Restricted Stock Units are granted on the assumption and condition that the Restricted Stock Units shall not become part of any employment or service contract (whether with the Company or any Parent or Affiliate, including the Employer) and shall not be considered a mandatory benefit, salary for any purpose (including severance compensation) or any other right whatsoever.  Furthermore, Participant understands and freely accepts that there is no guarantee that any benefit whatsoever shall arise from the grant of Restricted Stock Units, which are gratuitous and discretionary, since the future value of the Restricted Stock Units and the underlying Shares is unknown and unpredictable. 


In addition, Participant understands that this grant of Restricted Stock Units would not be made but for the assumptions and conditions set forth hereinabove; thus, Participant understands, acknowledges and freely accepts that, should any or all of the assumptions be mistaken or any of the conditions not be met for any reason, the Restricted Stock Units and any right to the underlying Shares shall be null and void.


Further, the vesting of the Restricted Stock Units is expressly conditioned on Participant’s continued and active rendering of service, such that if Participant’s status as a Service Provider is terminated for any reason whatsoever, the Restricted Stock Units may cease vesting immediately, in whole or in part, effective on the date of Participant’s termination as a Service Provider.  This will be the case, for example, even if (1) Participant is considered to be unfairly dismissed without good cause; (2) Participant is dismissed for disciplinary or objective reasons or due to a collective dismissal; (3) Participant terminates his or her relationship as a Service Provider due to a change of work location, duties or any other employment or contractual condition; (4) Participant terminates his or her relationship as a Service Provider due to a unilateral breach of contract by the Company or an Affiliate; or (5) Participant’s status as a Service Provider is terminated for any other reason whatsoever.  Consequently, upon termination of Participant’s status as a Service Provider for any of the above reasons, Participant may automatically lose any rights to Restricted Stock Units that were not vested on the date of Participant’s termination as a Service Provider, as described in the Plan and the Agreement.

Terms & Conditions


Tax Acknowledgment.  The following provisions supplement Section 7 in the Agreement:


Without limitation to the information regarding Tax-Related Items in the Agreement, Participant agrees that he or she is liable for all Tax-Related Items and hereby covenants to pay all such Tax-Related Items, as and when requested by the Company, or if different, the Employer or by Her Majesty’s Revenue & Customs (“HMRC”) (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority). Participant also agrees to indemnify and keep indemnified the Company and/or the Employer for all Tax-Related Items that they are required to pay, or withhold or have paid or will pay to HMRC (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority) on Participant’s behalf  and authorizes the Company and/or the Employer to recover such amounts by any means referred to in the Agreement. 


Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Participant is a director or executive officer (as within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act), Participant understands that he or she may not be able to indemnify the Company for the amount of Tax-Related Items not collected from or paid by Participant, if the indemnification could be considered to be a loan.  In this case, Tax-Related Items not collected or paid may constitute a benefit to Participant on which additional income tax and National Insurance Contributions (“NICs”) may be payable.  Participant acknowledges that he or she ultimately 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 paying to the Company or the Employer (as appropriate) the amount of any NICs due on this additional benefit which the Company and/or the Employer may also recover from Participant at anytime thereafter by any of the means referred to in this Agreement.
