	Payout Matters:
	If threshold performance is not attained with respect to Target EPS Shares and Target rTSR Shares, then the RSU Award will be forfeited in its entirety. If threshold performance is attained, the applicable number of Shares will vest (as Vested Shares). If applicable, such number of Vested Shares will be determined on an interpolated basis for performance between (i) threshold and target or (ii) target and maximum, as the case may be, per the above Payout Tables. Fractional percentage points will be rounded to the nearest percentage point with respect to the rTSR Payout Table and the nearest tenth of a percentage point with respect to EPS Payout Table]. The foregoing describes payout matters in general terms and is subject to Sections 1.1(b) and (c) of this Agreement.

							
	Vesting / Release:
	If the applicable rTSR Performance Criteria and/or EPS Performance Criteria (collectively, the “Performance Criteria”) is attained, the applicable number of Shares will vest (as Vested Shares) on the next business day following the third anniversary of [DATE]. The Vested Shares will be released as soon as administratively practicable thereafter (such date of release being the “Release Date”), and in any event following the end of the Performance Period and certification of results by the Committee, but prior to [DATE]. Applicable tax withholding and reporting will be contingent on the twenty (20)-day closing price average on the Release Date. The foregoing describes vesting and release matters in general terms and is subject to Sections 1.1(b) and (c) of this Agreement.

							
							
							
							
							
							
							
							
							










																					
	TSR-RELATED DEFINITIONS AND ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

							
	Total Shareholder Return:	TSR represents the cumulative return of an investment and includes the change in the stock price and dividend value from a specified start and ending period. The formula for the calculation is as follows: 

							
		TSR = ((Price End - Price Begin) + Dividend Value) ÷ Price Begin

							
	TSR Payout Calculation:	In General: The payout is determined by calculating the TSR of each rTSR Peer Company and determining the percentile rank of the Company’s TSR as compared to the TSRs for all of the rTSR Peer Companies (that is, the number of members of the rTSR Peer Group with TSRs at or below the TSR of the Company); provided that a company will be removed from the group of rTSR Peer Companies if, during the applicable rTSR Measurement Period, it ceases to have a class of equity securities that is both registered under the Exchange Act and actively traded on a U.S. public securities market (unless such cessation is due to any of the circumstances described in clauses (i) through (iv) of the following sentence). The TSR for an rTSR Peer Company will be negative one hundred percent (-100%) for the applicable rTSR Measurement Period, if such company: (i) files for bankruptcy, reorganization, or liquidation under any chapter of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code; (ii) is the subject of an involuntary bankruptcy proceeding [under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code] that is not dismissed within thirty (30) days; (iii) is the subject of a stockholder approved plan of liquidation or dissolution; or (iv) ceases to conduct substantial business operations. For the avoidance of doubt, the acquisition of a company within the group of rTSR Peer Companies during the applicable rTSR Measurement Period by another person or group of related persons by itself does not result in the company being treated as ceasing to conduct substantial business operations.

							
		20-Day Closing Price Average: To avoid the effects of short-term price fluctuations, a “20-day closing price average” will be used for determining TSR values, and will be calculated using a basic average of the applicable company’s closing prices on the previous twenty (20) trading days prior to the beginning and end of each rTSR Measurement Period. Only the daily closing price will be used to determine TSR values as reported by the Wall Street Journal or any other reputable financial services information provider. 
The formula for the calculation is as follows:

							
		20-Day Closing Price Average = (Sum of Prior 20-Day Closing Prices) ÷ 20

							
		Dividends Generally: Dividends (including any special dividends or distributions) will be assumed to be reinvested in shares (including fractional shares) of the applicable dividend-paying company, based on its per-share closing price on the date on which such dividends are paid.

							
		Equity Distributions: In the case of an equity distribution, the value of distributed equity will be treated as a stock dividend, and captured using the 20-day closing price average for measuring performance, as described above.

							
		Spin-Offs: In the event of a stock distribution from an rTSR Peer Company consisting of the shares of a new publicly traded company (a “spin-off”), such rTSR Peer Company shall remain as an rTSR Peer Company and such stock distribution shall be treated as a dividend from such rTSR Peer Company based on the closing price of the shares of the spun-off company on its first day of trading. The performance of the shares of the spun-off company shall not thereafter be tracked for TSR calculation purposes.

							
		Other Equitable Adjustments: Equitable adjustments shall be made to account for stock splits, recapitalizations and other similar events affecting the common equity securities in question.

							
		The formula for this TSR payout calculation is as follows:
							
		 ((B + .5E) ÷ N) × 100

							
		B = Number of rTSR Peer Companies with TSRs below the Company’s TSR 
E = Number of rTSR Peer Companies with TSRs equal to the Company’s TSR
N = The number of rTSR Peer Companies

							
							










																					
	EPS-RELATED DEFINITIONS AND ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

							
	Earnings Per Share:
	EPS represents the Company’s net income divided by the weighted average of the number of the Company’s Ordinary Shares on a fully diluted basis during a specified start and ending period.

							
	Earnings Per Share Growth:
	In General: EPS growth is determined based on the annual growth rate of the Company’s EPS during the applicable EPS Measurement Period. For purposes of this calculation, (i) the starting point to calculate EPS growth shall be the Company’s EPS for the twelve (12)-month period preceding the applicable EPS Measurement Period, (ii) the ending point to calculate EPS growth shall be the Company’s EPS with respect to, and as of the close of, such EPS Measurement Period. EPS shall be determined on a non-GAAP basis. In calculating non-GAAP financial measures, the Committee shall exclude certain items to facilitate a review of the comparability of the Company’s operating performance on a period-to-period basis because such items are not, in the Committee’s view, related to the Company’s ongoing operational performance. The non-GAAP measures are intended to more accurately evaluate the Company’s operating performance and for calculating return on investment. For instance, for fiscal year 2020, non-GAAP adjustments consisted of excluding after-tax stock-based compensation expense, amortization of intangible, customer related assets impairments, restructuring charges, the new revenue standard adoption impact, legal and other, interest and other, net and other charges (income), net. All adjustments shall be subject to approval by the Committee to ensure that payout levels are consistent with performance.

							
		Bonus Plan: The calculation of the EPS is intended to be consistent with the calculation of EPS under the Company’s Incentive Bonus Plan (the “Bonus Plan”). Adjustments to EPS are intended to be generally consistent with the adjustments applied under the Bonus Plan, it being understood that, the Committee in its sole discretion shall determine the extent to which the EPS Performance Criteria has been attained.

							
		Extraordinary Items or Events: In addition to the non-GAAP measures and adjustments historically used by the Company in determining EPS, the following items shall be disregarded in determining achievement of the EPS growth performance goal: extraordinary items or events that have unanticipated impact, corporate transactions (including acquisitions or dispositions) and other unusual or nonrecurring items. For purposes of such EPS growth determinations, the impact of unplanned share repurchases attributable to corporate transactions (including acquisitions or dispositions) shall be disregarded.

							
	EXAMPLE
						
							
	The example below assumes:
						
							
	•90,000 Total Target Shares are awarded, resulting in an RSU Award of:

							
	◦45,000 Target rTSR Shares, 

	◦45,000 Target EPS Shares, and 

	◦180,000 Maximum Shares

							
	Outcome: Maximum rTSR Performance & Below Maximum / Above Target EPS Growth Performance:

							
	rTSR Percentile Rank:
	85th percentile
					
	rTSR Award Earned:
	85th percentile is above the 75th percentile (Maximum Performance Level) so maximum earnings of 200% of the Target rTSR Shares, or 90,000 Vested Shares is achieved
							
	EPS Growth Percentage:	11% 					
	EPS Growth Percentage:	11% is between 12% (Maximum Performance Level) and 9% (Target Performance Level), so, interpolated earnings of 166.667% (i.e., 12⁄3 expressed as a percentage) of the Target EPS Shares, or 75,000 Vested Shares is achieved
							
	Total Vested Shares:	165,000 Vested Shares (i.e., 90,000 rTSR Shares Earned + 75,000 EPS Shares Earned)

(a)    Vesting. The RSU Award shall vest, and the applicable number of Shares shall be issuable to the Participant, according to the Performance Criteria set forth above. If application of the Performance Criteria results in the vesting of a fractional Share, such Share shall be rounded down to the nearest whole Share (it being understood that fractional Shares resulting from application of separate Performance Criteria hereunder shall first be added together, and then rounded down, if applicable, to the nearest whole Share). Shares that vest and are issuable pursuant to the Performance Criteria are “Vested Shares.”
(b)    Termination of Service. The RSU Award, all of the Company’s obligations and the Participant’s rights under this Agreement, shall terminate on the earlier of the Participant’s Termination Date or the date when all applicable Shares that are subject to the RSU Award have been allotted and issued, or forfeited in the case of any portion of the RSU Award that fails to vest; provided, however, that if the Participant has a Termination of Service due to Retirement, then (i) the RSU Award and all rights and obligations hereunder will not terminate and (ii) a number of Vested Shares shall be issued to the Participant following the end of the Performance Period and on the Release Date upon the vesting of the RSU Award pursuant to the Performance Criteria and pro-rated for the portion of the Performance Period during which the Participant was employed prior to Retirement; provided, further, that if within the Performance Period, the Participant violates the terms of Sections 10 through 13 of this Agreement, a non-disclosure agreement with, or other confidentiality obligation owed to, the Company or any Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate, then the RSU Award and all of the Company’s obligations and the Participant’s rights under this Agreement shall immediately terminate.

The Disability determination shall be in the sole discretion of the CEO, the Committee or the CEO’s direct reports, as applicable.
(d)    Allotment and Issuance of Vested Shares. The Company shall allot and issue the Vested Shares as soon as administratively practicable after such number of  Shares are determined to have vested (as Vested Shares) pursuant to the Performance Criteria, and as further set forth above in the “PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT, VESTING AND RELEASE – Vesting / Release” section of this Agreement or as provided above in Sections 1.1(b) and (c), as applicable. The Company shall have no obligation to allot and issue, and the Participant will have no right or title to, any Shares, and no Shares will be allotted and issued to the Participant, until satisfaction of the Performance Criteria.
(e)    No Obligation to Employ. Nothing in the Plan or this Agreement shall confer on the Participant any right to continue in the employ of, or other relationship with, the Company or any Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate or limit in any way the right of the Company or any Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate to terminate the Participant’s employment or service relationship at any time, with or without cause.
(f)    Nontransferability of RSU Award. None of the Participant’s rights under this Agreement or under the RSU Award may be transferred in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Participants in the U.S. may transfer or assign the RSU Award to Family Members through a gift or a domestic relations order (and not in a transfer for value), or as otherwise allowed by the Plan. The terms of this Agreement shall be binding upon the executors, administrators, successors and assigns of the Participant.

3.Compliance with Laws and Regulations. The issuance and transfer of the Shares to the Participant shall be subject to and conditioned upon compliance by the Company and the Participant with all applicable requirements of any share exchange or automated quotation system on which the Company’s Ordinary Shares may be listed at the time of such issuance or transfer. The Participant understands that the Company is under no obligation to register or qualify the Shares with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, any state, local or foreign securities commission or any share exchange to effect such compliance.
4.Rights as Shareholder. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Participant will have all of the rights of a shareholder of the Company with respect to the Vested Shares which have been allotted and issued to the Participant until such time as the Participant disposes of such Vested Shares.
5.Stop-Transfer Orders.
5.1    Stop-Transfer Instructions. The Participant agrees that, to ensure compliance with the restrictions imposed by this Agreement, the Company may issue appropriate “stop-transfer” instructions to its transfer agent, if any, and if the Company administers transfers of its own securities, it may make appropriate notations to the same effect in its own records.

5.2    Refusal to Transfer. The Company will not be required (i) to register in its books any Shares that have been sold or otherwise transferred in violation of any of the provisions of this Agreement or (ii) to treat as owner of such Shares, or to accord the right to vote or pay dividends to any Participant or other transferee to whom such Shares have been so transferred.
6.Taxes and Disposition of Shares. 
6.1    Tax Obligations. 
(a)    Regardless of any action the Company or the Participant’s employer (the “Employer”) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related items arising out of the Participant’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to the Participant (“Tax-Related Items”), the Participant acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items is and remains the Participant’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company and/or the Employer. The Participant further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (i) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the RSU Award, including but not limited to, the grant, vesting or issuance of Vested Shares underlying the RSU Award, the subsequent sale of Vested Shares acquired upon vesting and the receipt of any dividends; and (ii) do not commit and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the RSU Award to reduce or eliminate the Participant’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Furthermore, if the Participant has become subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction between the Date of Grant and the date of any relevant taxable event, the 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. 
(b)    Prior to the relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, the Participant shall pay or make arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, the Participant authorizes the Company and/or the Employer, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy the Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following (i) withholding from the Participant’s wages or other cash compensation paid to the Participant by the Company, the Employer, or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company; or (ii) withholding from the proceeds of the sale of Vested Shares either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on the Participant’s behalf pursuant to this authorization); or (iii) withholding in Shares to be issued at vesting of the RSU Award.








(c)    To avoid any negative accounting treatment, the Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding amounts or other applicable withholding rates. If the obligation for the Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in Shares, for tax purposes, the Participant is deemed to have been issued the full number of Vested Shares, notwithstanding that a number of Shares are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of the Participant’s participation in the Plan.
(d)    The Participant shall 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 the Participant’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described in this section. The Company may refuse to issue or deliver the Vested Shares or the proceeds from the sale of Shares, if the Participant fails to comply with his or her obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.
6.2    Disposition of Shares. The Participant hereby agrees that he or she shall make no disposition of the Shares (other than as permitted by this Agreement) unless and until the Participant shall have complied with all requirements of this Agreement applicable to the disposition of the Shares.
7.Nature of Grant. In accepting the RSU Award, the Participant acknowledges and agrees that: 
(a)the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, is discretionary in nature and may be amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time;
(b)the grant of the RSU Award is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future RSU Awards, or benefits in lieu of RSU Awards, even if RSU Awards have been granted repeatedly in the past; 
(c)all decisions with respect to future RSU Awards, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company;
(d)the Participant’s participation in the Plan is voluntary; 
(e)the future value of the Shares underlying the RSU Award is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty; 
(f)no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from the forfeiture of the RSU Award resulting from a Termination of Service (for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of local labor laws), and in consideration of the RSU Award to which the Participant is otherwise not entitled, the Participant irrevocably agrees never to institute any claim against the Company and/or the Employer, waives the Participant’s ability, if any, to bring any such claim, and releases the Company and/or the Employer from any such claim; if, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is allowed by a court of competent jurisdiction, then, by participating in the Plan, the Participant shall be deemed irrevocably to have agreed not to pursue such claim and agrees to execute any and all documents necessary to request dismissal or withdrawal of such claims; and  
(g)if the Participant resides outside of the U.S.A.: 
(A)the RSU Award and any Shares acquired under the Plan are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation;
(B)the RSU Award is not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purposes, including, but not limited to, calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, end of service payments, dismissal, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar payments and in no event should be considered as compensation for, or relating in any way to past services for the Employer, the Company or any Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate; and 
(C)in the event of the Participant’s Termination of Service (whether or not in breach of local labor laws), and subject to Sections 1.1(b) and (c), as applicable, the Participant’s right to vest in the RSU Award under the Plan, if any, will terminate effective as of the date of Termination of Service, it being understood that the Committee shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when the Participant is no longer actively providing service for purposes of this RSU Award. 
8.No Advice Regarding Grant. The Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding the Participant’s participation in the Plan, or the sale of the Shares acquired upon vesting of the RSU Award. The Participant is hereby advised to 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. 
9.Data Privacy. 
(a)The Participant hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of the Participant’s personal data as described in this Agreement and any other RSU Award materials by and among, as applicable, the Employer, the Company and its Parent, Subsidiaries and Affiliates for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Participant’s participation in the Plan.

The Participant understands that Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage the Participant’s participation in the Plan. The Participant understands that he or she may, at any time, view Data, request additional 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 local human resources representative. The Participant understands, however, that refusing or withdrawing his or her consent may affect the Participant’s ability to participate in the Plan. For more information on the consequences of the Participant’s refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, the Participant understands that he or she may contact his or her local human resources representative.

Securities Law Information. The Participant should be aware of the Dutch insider-trading rules, which may impact the sale of Shares acquired under the Plan. In particular, the Participant may be prohibited from effectuating certain transactions if the Participant has inside information about the Company.
Under Article 5:56 of the Dutch Financial Supervision Act, anyone who has “insider information” related to an issuing company is prohibited from effectuating a transaction in securities in or from the Netherlands. “Inside information” is defined as knowledge of specific information concerning the issuing company to which the securities relate or the trade in securities issued by such company, which has not been made public and which, if published, would reasonably be expected to affect the share price, regardless of the development of the price. The insider could be any Employee in the Netherlands who has inside information as described herein.
Given the broad scope of the definition of inside information, certain Employees working at a Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate in the Netherlands may have inside information and, thus, would be prohibited from effectuating a transaction in securities in the Netherlands at a time when the Participant has such inside information.

If the Participant is uncertain whether the insider-trading rules apply to him or her, he or she should consult his or her personal legal advisor.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant is an officer or executive director (as within the meaning of section 13(k) of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), the terms of the immediately foregoing provision will not apply. In the event that the Participant is an officer or executive director and Tax-Related Items are not collected from or paid by Participant within 90 days of the Taxable Event, the amount of any uncollected Tax-Related Items may constitute a benefit to the Participant on which additional income tax and National Insurance Contributions may be payable.

The Participant further agrees that the Company and/or the Employer may collect the Employer NICs from the Participant by any of the means set forth in Section 6.1 of the Agreement.
If the Participant does not enter into a Joint Election prior to vesting of the RSU Award or if approval of the Joint Election has been withdrawn by HMRC, the RSU Award shall become null and void without any liability to the Company and/or the Employer and the Company may choose not to issue or deliver Shares upon vesting of the RSU Award.
