U.S. Notice of Terms
Supplemental Restricted Stock Units
To:        Brian J. West
BEMSID:    «BEMS_ID»
Grant Date:    «Hire Date»
The Boeing Company (the “Company”) has awarded you a Supplemental Restricted Stock Unit award (the “Award”) pursuant to The Boeing Company 2003 Incentive Stock Plan, as amended and restated from time to time (the “Plan”), and the provisions contained herein (the “Notice”). Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Notice shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Plan.  Your Award is subject to the terms of the Plan. If there is any inconsistency between the terms of this Notice and the terms of the Plan, the Plan’s terms shall control. You are required to accept and acknowledge the terms and conditions of the Award, through the mechanism and procedures determined by the Company, as a condition to receiving the Award. The terms and conditions of the Award are as follows:
1.    RSU Award.  You have been awarded «RSU_Units» Supplemental Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”).  Each RSU corresponds to one share of Common Stock.  
2.    RSU Account.  The Company will maintain a record of the number of awarded RSUs in an account established in your name.
3.    Vesting of RSUs.  Subject to Sections 6 and 7, your RSUs will vest on the third anniversary of the Grant Date (or if such date is not a Trading Day, the next Trading Day) (the “Vesting Date”). At the time your RSUs vest, the Company will issue to you shares of Common Stock equal in number to the vested number of whole RSUs in your account, after deduction of shares to cover appropriate taxes and other charges as described in Section 8.2. Subject to the terms and conditions outlined under Section 6 and 7, this Award is granted on the condition that you remain continuously employed by the Company or a Related Company from the Grant Date through the Vesting Date. “Trading Day” shall mean a day on which the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading.
4.    Dividend Equivalents.
    4.1  While RSUs are in your account, they will earn dividend equivalents in the form of additional RSUs.  Specifically, as of each dividend payment date for Common Stock, your RSU account will be credited with additional RSUs (“dividend equivalent RSUs”) equal in number to the number of shares of Common Stock that could be bought with the cash dividends that would be paid on the RSUs in your account if each RSU were one share of Common Stock.  
    4.2  The number of shares of Common Stock that could be bought with the cash dividends will be calculated to two decimal places and will be based on the “Fair Market Value” of a share of Common Stock on the applicable dividend payment date.  For purposes of this Award, “Fair Market Value” means the average of the high and the low per share trading prices for Common Stock as reported by The Wall Street Journal for the specific dividend payment date, or by such other source as the Company deems reliable.
4.3  Dividend equivalent RSUs will vest at the same time and in the same manner as the RSUs with which they are associated.
5.      Adjustment in Number of RSUs.  The number of RSUs in your account will be adjusted proportionately for any increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock resulting from any stock split, combination or exchange of Common Stock, consolidation, spin-off or recapitalization of Common Stock, or any similar capital adjustment or the payment of any stock dividend. 
6.    Termination Due to Layoff, Disability, or Death.  In the event your employment is terminated prior to the Vesting Date by reason of layoff, disability, or death, your unvested RSUs, including any dividend equivalent RSUs, will vest in full.  Payment for this Award will be made (i) as soon as administratively possible, but not later than 60 days after your termination of employment, in the event that your employment is terminated by reason of disability or death, or (ii) at the same time as payment would have been made pursuant to Section 3 had your employment not terminated prior to the Vesting Date, in the event that your employment is terminated by reason of layoff. For purposes of this Award, “disability” means a disability entitling you to benefits under any long-term disability policy sponsored by the Company or a Related Company.
7.    Forfeiture Upon Other Terminations.  In the event your employment is terminated prior to the Vesting Date for any reason (including for cause and resignation) other than those reasons described in Section 6, all unvested RSUs (and all associated dividend equivalent RSUs) granted hereunder shall immediately be forfeited and canceled.








8.    RSU Award Payable in Stock.
    8.1  Distribution from your RSU account will be made as soon as reasonably possible, but not later than 60 days, after the Vesting Date, except as otherwise provided in Section 6.  The number of shares distributed will be equal to the number of whole vested RSUs in your account, subject to deductions described in Section 8.2.  Fractional share values will be applied to Federal income tax withholding.
    8.2  The Company will deduct from the distribution of your vested RSUs any withholding or other taxes required by law and may deduct any amounts due from you to the Company or to any Related Company.
8.3  In the event you transfer from the US based payroll to a country in which RSU grants and related dividend equivalents are not settled in shares of Common Stock and you are scheduled for an RSU payout under Section 3 or 6 above while in such country, your distribution will be paid in cash.
9.    Transferability.  RSUs are not transferable except by will or by laws of descent and distribution.  You may designate a beneficiary to receive your Award in the event of your death.
10.    Clawback and Forfeiture Policy.  
10.1  This Award and any proceeds resulting from the vesting of this Award are subject to the Clawback Policy adopted by the Company’s Board of Directors, as amended from time to time (the “Policy”). The Policy provides (among other things) that an Award may be subject to clawback and forfeiture (meaning that the Award or proceeds thereof must be promptly returned to the Company if already distributed, or that you will lose your entitlement to an Award if it has not yet been distributed) in the discretion of the Committee, if the Committee determines that you have (i) violated, or engaged in negligent conduct in connection with the supervision of someone who violated, any Company policy, law, or regulation that has compromised the safety of any of the Company’s products or services and has, or reasonably could be expected to have, a material adverse impact on the Company, the Company’s customers or the public; or (ii) engaged in fraud, bribery, or illegal acts like fraud or bribery, or knowingly failed to report such acts of an employee over whom you had direct supervisory responsibility.  
10.2  In addition, subject to applicable law, or except as may be otherwise provided in the Addendum, this Award and any proceeds resulting from the vesting of this Award are subject to clawback and forfeiture in the event you engage in any of the following conduct, as determined by the Company or its delegate in its sole discretion, prior to the second anniversary of the later of the Vesting Date or receipt of payment of the Award: you (i) plead or admit to, are convicted of, or are otherwise found guilty of a criminal or indictable offense involving theft, fraud, embezzlement, or other similar unlawful acts against the Company or against the Company’s interests; (ii) directly or indirectly engage in competition with any aspect of Company business with which you were involved or about which you gained Company proprietary or confidential information; (iii) induce or attempt to induce, directly or indirectly, any of the Company’s employees, representatives or consultants to terminate, discontinue or cease working with or for the Company, or to breach any contract with the Company, in order to work with or for, or enter into a contract with, you or any third party; (iv) disparage or defame the Company or its products or current or former employees, provided that this clause shall not be construed to prohibit any individual from reporting, in good faith, suspected unlawful conduct in the workplace; or (v) take, misappropriate, use or disclose Company proprietary or confidential information. Clawback can, if possible and where permitted by local law, be made by deducting payments that will become due in future (including salary, bonuses, or share awards). Your acceptance of this Award shall constitute your acknowledgement and recognition that your compliance with this Section 10 is a condition for your receipt of this Award.  For purposes of this Section 10, the Company shall include the Company and all Related Companies.
10.3  Nothing in this Section 10 will apply to legally protected communications to government agencies or statements made in the course of sworn testimony in administrative, judicial or arbitral proceedings.  
11.    Miscellaneous.
11.1  No Right to Continued Employment or Service.
