Restricted Stock Units


    THIS GRANT AGREEMENT, as of the Grant Date noted above between HP Inc., a Delaware Corporation (“Company”), and the employee named above (“Employee”), is entered into as follows:


    WHEREAS, the continued participation of the Employee is considered by the Company to be important for the Company's continued growth; and


    WHEREAS, in order to give the Employee an incentive to continue in the employ of the Company (or its Affiliates or Subsidiaries), to accept ancillary agreements designed to protect the legitimate business interests of the Company that are made a condition of this grant and to participate in the affairs of the Company, the HR and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company or its delegates (“Committee”) has determined that the Employee shall be granted restricted stock units representing hypothetical shares of the Company’s common stock (“RSUs”), with each RSU equal in value to one share of the Company’s $0.01 par value common stock (“Share”), subject to the restrictions stated below and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the plan named above (“Plan”), a copy of which can be found on the Long-term Incentives website along with a copy of the related prospectus.  The Plan and the related prospectus also can be obtained by written or telephonic request to the Company Secretary.  Unless otherwise defined in this Grant Agreement, any capitalized terms in this Grant Agreement shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the Plan. 


    THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:


1.Grant of Restricted Stock Units.
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Grant Agreement and of the Plan, the Company hereby grants to the Employee the number of RSUs set forth above.


2.Vesting Schedule.
The interest of the Employee in the RSUs shall vest according to the vesting schedule set forth above, or if earlier, in accordance with Section 8 or 9, below, except to the extent a severance plan applicable to the Employee provides otherwise.  Unless the provisions of Section 8 or 9 apply, the Employee must remain in the employ of the Company, any Subsidiary or Affiliate on a continuous basis through the close of business on the applicable Vesting Date, as set forth above, and the Employee must be in compliance with the requirements and conditions provided for in the Plan and this Grant Agreement for the interest of the Employee in the RSUs to become fully vested on that date.   


3.Benefit Upon Settlement.
Within 75 days of each Vesting Date set forth on the above vesting schedule or, if earlier, a vesting event pursuant to Section 8 or 9 below, the Company shall deliver or pay, as applicable, to the Employee (or the Employee’s guardian, estate or beneficiary in the event of Section 8 or 9) Shares or a combination of cash and Shares, as the Company determines in its sole discretion, with a value equal to:


1








(a)    the number of RSUs that have become vested as of such vesting date or vesting event, as applicable, multiplied by the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date on which such RSUs vested; plus 
(b)    a dividend equivalent payment credited in the form of additional RSUs for each ordinary cash dividend the Company pays on its Shares and for which the record date occurs between the grant date and the date the RSUs are settled, determined by: 
(1)multiplying the per share cash dividend paid by the Company on its Shares by the total number of RSUs that are outstanding as of the record date for the dividend; and
(2)dividing the amount determined in (1) above by the Fair Market Value of a Share on the dividend payment date to determine the number of additional whole and fractional RSUs to be credited to the Employee; 
provided, however, that if any aggregated dividend equivalent payments in Section (b)(2) above to be delivered in Shares result in a payment of a fractional Share, such fractional Share shall be rounded up to the next whole Share.  


Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may, in its sole discretion, settle the RSUs in the form of a cash payment to the extent settlement in Shares: (i) is prohibited under local law; (ii) would require the Employee, the Company and/or any Subsidiary or Affiliate to obtain the approval of any governmental and/or regulatory body in the Employee's country; (iii) would result in adverse tax consequences for the Employee, the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate; or (iv) is administratively burdensome. Alternatively, the Company may, in its sole discretion, settle the RSUs in the form of Shares but require the Employee to sell such Shares immediately or within a specified period of time following the Employee’s termination of employment (in which case the Employee expressly authorizes the Company to issue sales instructions on the Employee's behalf). 


4.Restrictions.
Except as otherwise provided for in this Grant Agreement, the RSUs or rights granted hereunder may not be sold, pledged or otherwise transferred.  The period of time between the Grant Date and the date the RSUs become fully vested pursuant to Section 2 is referred to herein as the “Restriction Period.”
5.Custody of Restricted Stock Units.
The RSUs subject hereto shall be recorded in an account with the Plan broker in the name of the Employee.  Upon termination of the Restriction Period, if the Company determines, in its sole discretion, to deliver Shares pursuant to Section 3 above, such Shares shall be released into the Employee’s account; provided, however, that a portion of such Shares shall be surrendered in payment of Tax-Related Items, as defined and in accordance with Section 12 below, unless the Company, in its sole discretion, establishes alternative procedures for the payment of Tax-Related Items.


6.No Stockholder Rights.
RSUs represent hypothetical Shares.  Until Shares are delivered to the Employee pursuant to the terms of this Grant Agreement, the Employee shall not be entitled to any of the rights or benefits generally accorded to stockholders, including, without limitation, the receipt of dividends.


7.Termination of Employment.
Except as otherwise provided for in this Grant Agreement or in the Plan or as otherwise determined by the Company in its sole discretion, if the Employee's employment with the Company, any Subsidiary or Affiliate is terminated at any time for any reason prior to the lapse of the Restriction Period, all unvested RSUs granted hereunder shall be forfeited by the Employee, except to the extent a severance plan applicable to the Employee provides otherwise.


For purposes of this Grant Agreement, the Employee's employment or service will be considered terminated as of the date he or she is no longer actively providing services to the Company, any Subsidiary or Affiliate (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 the Employee is employed or retained or the terms of the Employee's employment or service agreement, if any) and will not be extended by any notice period (e.g., the Employee's period of employment or service would not include any contractual notice period or any period of “garden leave” or similar period mandated under the employment laws in the jurisdiction where the Employee is employed or retained or the terms of the Employee's employment or service agreement, if any).  The Committee shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when the Employee's employment or service is terminated for purposes of this Grant Agreement (including whether the Employee may still be considered to be providing service while on a leave of absence).


8.Disability of the Employee.
If the Employee’s employment is terminated prior to the end of the Restriction Period by reason of the Employee’s Total and Permanent Disability, all RSUs shall immediately vest including any amounts for dividend equivalent payments on RSUs that vest at termination. The Company’s obligation to vest the RSUs under this paragraph is subject to the condition that (i) the Employee shall have executed a current Agreement Regarding Confidential Information and Proprietary Developments (“ARCIPD”) that is satisfactory to the Company no later than the date immediately prior to the date of the Employee’s termination of employment, (ii) the Employee has not engaged in any conduct that creates a conflict of interest in the opinion of the Company during the Employee’s active employment with the Company, and (iii) the Employee is in compliance with any-post employment restrictions in the ARCIPD during the period in which the RSU remains outstanding.  


2








9.Death of the Employee.
In the event that termination of employment prior to the end of the Restriction Period is due to the death of the Employee, all unvested RSUs shall immediately vest including any amounts for dividend equivalent payments on such vested RSUs.  


10.Termination for Cause.
Upon termination of the Employee’s employment for Cause (as defined in the Plan), then all unvested RSUs shall be forfeited by the Employee on the date of the Employee’s termination, except to the extent a severance plan applicable to the Employee provides otherwise. Such forfeiture shall occur regardless of whether the Employee has satisfied any applicable age and service requirements for retirement.  


11.Section 409A.
The following provisions apply to the extent the Employee is subject to taxation in the U.S.  Payments made pursuant to the Plan and this Grant Agreement are intended to comply with or qualify for an exemption from Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”).  The Company reserves the right, to the extent the Company deems necessary or advisable in its sole discretion, to unilaterally amend or modify the Plan and/or this Grant Agreement or adopt other policies and procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive effect), or take any other actions, including any amendments or actions that would result in the reduction of benefits payable under this Grant Agreement, as the Company determines are necessary or appropriate to ensure that all RSUs and dividend equivalent payments are made in a manner that qualifies for an exemption from, or complies with, Section 409A or mitigate any additional tax, interest and/or penalties or other adverse tax consequences that may apply under Section 409A: provided however, that the Company makes no representations that the RSUs or dividend equivalents will be exempt from any taxes, interest, and/or penalties that may apply under Section 409A and makes no undertaking to preclude Section 409A from applying to this RSU.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Employee hereby acknowledges and agrees that neither the Company nor any Affiliate or Subsidiary will have any liability to the Employee or any other party if any amounts payable under this Grant Agreement are not exempt from, or compliant with, Section 409A, or for any action taken by the Company with respect thereto.  Any payments under this Grant Agreement, the settlement of which is triggered by a "separation from service" (within the meaning of Section 409A) of a "specified employee" (as defined under Section 409A), shall be made on a date that is the earlier of (a) the Employee’s death or (b) the later of the specified settlement date and the date which is six months after the date of the Employee’s separation from service.


12.Taxes.
(a)The Employee shall be liable for any and all taxes, including income tax, social insurance, fringe benefit tax, payroll tax, payment on account, employer taxes or other tax-related items related to the Employee’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to or otherwise recoverable from the Employee by the Company and/or, if different, the Employee’s employer (the “Employer”) whether incurred at grant, vesting, sale, prior to vesting or at any other time (“Tax-Related Items”).  In the event that the Company or the Employer (which, for purposes of this Section 12, shall include a former employer) is required, allowed or permitted to withhold taxes as a result of the grant or vesting of RSUs or the issuance or subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such RSUs, or due upon receipt of dividend equivalent payments or dividends, the Employee shall surrender a sufficient number of whole Shares, make a cash payment or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to withhold such taxes from Employee’s wages or other cash compensation paid to the Employee by the Company and/or the Employer at the election of the Company, in its sole discretion, or, if permissible under local law, the Company may sell or arrange for the sale of Shares that Employee acquires as necessary to cover all Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer has to withhold or that are legally recoverable from the Employee (such as fringe benefit tax) at the time the restrictions on the RSUs lapse, unless the Company, in its sole discretion, has established alternative procedures for such payment. However, with respect to any RSUs subject to Section 409A, the Employer shall limit the surrender of Shares to the minimum number of Shares permitted to avoid a prohibited acceleration under Section 409A. The Employee will receive a cash refund for any fraction of a surrendered Share or Shares in excess of any and all Tax-Related Items.  To the extent that any surrender of Shares or payment of cash or alternative procedure for such payment is insufficient, the Employee authorizes the Company, its Affiliates and Subsidiaries, which are qualified to deduct tax at source, to deduct from the Employee’s compensation all Tax-Related Items.  The Employee agrees to pay any Tax-Related Items that cannot be satisfied from wages or other cash compensation, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law.  


(b)Regardless of any action the Company or the Employer takes with respect to any or all Tax-Related Items, the Employee acknowledges and agrees that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items is and remains the Employee’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the Employer.  The Employee further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer: (i) make no representations nor undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of this grant of RSUs or dividend equivalents, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting or settlement of RSUs or dividend equivalents, the subsequent delivery of Shares and/or cash upon settlement of such RSUs or the subsequent sale of any Shares acquired pursuant to such RSUs and receipt of any dividends or dividend equivalent payments; and (ii) notwithstanding Section 11, do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms or any aspect of this grant of RSUs and/or dividend equivalents to reduce or eliminate the Employee’s liability for Tax-Related Items or to achieve any particular tax result.  Further, if the Employee has become subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction, the Employee acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.  


(c)Depending on the withholding method, the Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable statutory withholding rates or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum applicable rates in the Employee’s jurisdiction(s), in which case the Employee will 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, the 




3








Employee is deemed to have been issued the full number of shares of Common Stock subject to the vested RSUs, notwithstanding that a number of the shares of Common Stock are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items.


(d)The Employee shall pay 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 Employee’s participation in the Plan or the Employee’s receipt of RSUs that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described.  The Company may refuse to deliver the benefit described in Section 3 if the Employee fails to comply with the Employee’s obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.


(e)The Employee consents and agrees that in the event the RSUs or the dividend equivalents become subject to an employer tax that is legally permitted to be recovered from the Employee, as may be determined by the Company and/or the Employer at their sole discretion, and whether or not the Employee’s employment with the Company and/or the Employer is continuing at the time such tax becomes recoverable, the Employee will assume any liability for any such taxes that may be payable by the Company and/or the Employer in connection with the RSUs and dividend equivalents.  Further, the Employee agrees that the Company and/or the Employer may collect any such taxes from the Employee by any of the means set forth in this Section 12.  The Employee further agrees to execute any other consents or elections required to accomplish the above, promptly upon request of the Company.


13.Data Privacy Consent.
(a)The Employee hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of the Employee’s personal data as described in this Grant Agreement and any other materials by and among, as applicable, the Company, its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, and the Employer for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Employee’s participation in the Plan. 


(b)The Employee understands that the Company, its Subsidiaries and Affiliates, and the Employer may hold certain personal information about the Employee, including, but not limited to, name, home address, email address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number, passport number or other identification number, salary, nationality, residency, status, job title, any shares of stock or directorships held in the Company, details of all RSUs, options or any other entitlement to shares of stock granted, canceled, purchased, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in the Employee’s favor (“Data”) for the exclusive purpose of implementing, managing and administering the Plan. 


(c)The Employee understands that Data may be transferred to Merrill Lynch and any third parties assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan, that these recipients may be located in the Employee’s country or elsewhere, and that the recipient’s country may have different data privacy laws and protections than the Employee’s country.  The Company is committed to protecting the privacy of Data in such cases.  The Employee understands that by contract both with the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates and with Merrill Lynch and/or the Company’s other vendors, the people and companies that have access to the Employee’s Data are bound to handle such Data in a manner consistent with the Company’s privacy policy and law.  The Company periodically performs due diligence and audits on its vendors in accordance with good commercial practices to ensure their capabilities and compliance with those commitments.  The Employee further understands that Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage the Employee’s participation in the Plan.  


(d)The Employee understands that if he or she resides outside the United States, the Employee 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.  Further, the Employee understands that he or she is providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis.  If the Employee does not consent, or if the Employee later seeks to revoke his or her consent, the Employee's employment status or service with the Company or his or her Employer will not be affected; the only consequence of refusing or withdrawing the Employee’s consent is that the Company would not be able to grant the Employee RSUs or other equity awards or administer and manage the Employee’s participation in the Plan.  Therefore, the Employee understands that refusing or withdrawing his or her consent may affect the Employee’s ability to participate in the Plan.  For more information on the consequences of the Employee’s refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, the Employee understands that he or she may contact his or her local human resources representative.


(e)Further, the Employee understands that the Company may rely on a different legal basis for the processing and/or transfer of Data in the future and/or request that the Employee provide another data privacy consent. If applicable and upon request of the Company or a Subsidiary or Affiliate, the Employee agrees to provide an executed data privacy consent or acknowledgement (or any other consents, acknowledgements or agreements) to the Company or a Subsidiary or Affiliate that the Company and/or a Subsidiary or Affiliate may deem necessary to obtain under the data privacy laws in the Employee’s country of employment, either now or in the future. The Employee understands that he or she may be unable to participate in the Plan if he or she fails to execute any such acknowledgement, agreement or consent requested by the Company and/or a Subsidiary or Affiliate. 


By electronically accepting RSUs on the Merrill Lynch website, the Employee is declaring that the Employee agrees with the data processing practices described in this Section 13 and that the Employee consents to the collection, processing and use of Data by the Company and the transfer of Data to the recipients mentioned therein for the purposes described therein.

The Employee agrees to receive copies of the Plan, the Plan prospectus and other Plan information, including information prepared to comply with Applicable Laws outside the United States, from the Long-term Incentives website and stockholder information, including copies of any annual report, proxy and Form 10-K, from the investor relations section of the Company's website at https://investor.hp.com/home/default.aspx.  The Employee acknowledges that copies of the Plan, Plan prospectus, Plan information and stockholder information are available upon written or telephonic request to the Company Secretary.

(f)all decisions with respect to future grants, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company; 


(g)the Employee’s participation in the Plan shall not create a right to further employment with the Employer and shall not interfere with the ability of the Employer to terminate the Employee’s employment relationship at any time and it is expressly agreed and understood that employment is terminable at the will of either party; 


(h)the Employee is voluntarily participating in the Plan;

(n)the future value of the underlying Shares is unknown, indeterminable and cannot be predicted with certainty; 


(o)no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from forfeiture of the RSUs resulting from termination of Employee’s employment (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 the Employee is employed or retained or the terms of the Employee's employment or service agreement, if any), and in consideration of the grant of the RSUs to which the Employee is otherwise not entitled, the Employee irrevocably agrees never to institute any claim against the Company, the Employer or any other Subsidiary or Affiliate and releases the Company, the Employer and any other Subsidiary and Affiliate 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 Employee shall be deemed irrevocably to have agreed not to pursue such claim and to have agreed to execute any and all documents necessary to request dismissal or withdrawal of such claims; 


5








(p)the Company, the Employer or any other Subsidiary or Affiliate will not be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between the Employee’s local currency and the United States dollar that may affect the value of the RSUs or any amounts due to the Employee pursuant to the settlement of the RSUs or the subsequent sale of any Shares acquired upon settlement;


(q)if the Company determines that the Employee has engaged in misconduct prohibited by Applicable Law or any applicable policy of the Company, as in effect from time to time, or the Company is required to make recovery from the Employee under Applicable Law or a Company policy adopted to comply with applicable legal requirements, then the Company may, in its sole discretion, to the extent it determines appropriate, (i) recover from the Employee the proceeds from RSUs vested up to three years prior to the Employee’s termination of employment or any time thereafter, (ii) cancel the Employee’s outstanding RSUs, and (iii) take any other action it deems to be required and appropriate; and

If such separate documents are required by the Company and the Employee does not accept them within 75 days of the Grant Date or such other date as of which the Company shall require in its discretion, this RSU shall be canceled and the Employee shall have no further rights under this Grant Agreement.


18.Miscellaneous.

APPENDIX
HP INC. 2004 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN, AS AMENDED


GRANT AGREEMENT FOR NON-U.S. EMPLOYEES


Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Grant Agreement or the Plan.


This Appendix includes additional terms and conditions that govern the RSUs granted to the Employee if the Employee resides and/or is employed in one of the countries listed herein.  This Appendix is part of the Grant Agreement.  


If the Employee is a citizen or resident (or is considered as such for local law purposes) of a country other than the country in which the Employee is currently residing and/or employed, or if the Employee transfers to another country after the Grant Date, the Company shall, in its discretion, determine to what extent the special terms and conditions contained herein shall be applicable to the Employee.


This Appendix also includes information and notices regarding securities, exchange control, tax and certain other issues of which the Employee should be aware with respect to his or her participation in the Plan.  The information is based on the securities, exchange control, tax and other laws in effect in the respective countries as of November 2021.  Such laws are often complex and change frequently.  As a result, the Company strongly recommends that the Employee not rely on the information contained herein as the only source of information relating to the consequences of his or her participation in the Plan because the information may be out of date at the time the Employee vests in the RSUs, receives Shares, a cash payment or a dividend equivalent payment upon vesting, sells any Shares acquired under the Plan or receive dividends paid on such Shares.  In addition, the information is general in nature and may not apply to the Employee's particular situation, and the Company is not in a position to assure the Employee of any particular result.  Therefore, the Employee is advised to seek appropriate professional advice as to how the relevant laws in his or her country may apply to the Employee's individual situation.


If the Employee is a citizen or resident (or is considered as such for local law purposes) of a country other than the country in which the Employee is currently residing and/or employed, or if the Employee transfers to another country after the Grant Date, the information contained herein may not be applicable to the Employee in the same manner.


European Union (“EU”) / European Economic Area (“EEA”) / United Kingdom


Data Privacy.  If the Employee resides or is employed in the EU, EEA or United Kingdom, the following provision replaces Section 13 of the Grant Agreement. 


The Company is located at 1501 Page Mill, Palo Alto, California 94304, USA and grants RSUs under the Plan to the Employee at the Company’s sole discretion. The Employee should review the following information about the Company’s data processing practices. 


Data Collection and Usage. Pursuant to applicable data protection laws, the Employee is hereby notified that the Company collects, processes uses, and transfers certain personally-identifiable information about the Employee for the legitimate interest of implementing, administering and managing the Plan and generally administering equity awards; specifically, including the Employee’s name, home address, email address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, citizenship, job title, any Shares or directorships held in the Company, and details of all RSUs or any other awards granted, canceled, exercised, vested, or outstanding in the Employee’s favor, which the Company receives from the Employee or the Employer.  In granting the Employee RSUs under the Plan, the Company will collect the Employee’s personal data for purposes of allocating Shares and implementing, administering and managing the Plan.  The Company’s collection, processing, use and transfer of the Employee’s personal data is necessary for the performance of the Company’s contractual obligations under the Plan and pursuant to the Company’s legitimate interest of managing and generally administering employee equity awards. The Employee’s refusal to provide personal data would make it impossible for the Company to perform its contractual obligations and may affect the Employee’s ability to participate in the Plan. As such, by participating in the Plan, the Employee voluntarily acknowledges the collection, use, processing and transfer of the Employee’s personal data as described herein. 


Stock Plan Administration Service Provider. The Company transfers the Employee’s data to Merrill Lynch, an independent service provider based in the United States, which assists the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan.  In the future, the Company may select a different service provider and share the Employee’s data with another company that serves in a similar manner. The Company’s service provider will open an account for the Employee to receive and trade Shares. The Employee will be asked to agree on separate terms and data processing practices with the service provider, which is a condition to the Employee’s ability to participate in the Plan. 


International Data Transfers. The Company and its service providers are based in the United States. The Company can only meet its contractual obligations to the Employee if the Employee’s personal data is transferred to the United States.  The performance of the Company’s contractual obligations to the Employee is one of the legal bases for the transfer of the Employee’s data from the EU/EEA/United Kingdom to the United States.  The Employee should be aware that the United States has different data privacy laws and protections than the data privacy laws in place in the EU/EEA/United Kingdom. 


Data Retention. The Company will use the Employee’s personal data only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage the Employee’s participation in the Plan or as required to comply with legal or regulatory obligations, including under tax and security laws.  When the Company no longer needs the Employee’s personal data, the Company will remove it from its systems.  If the Company 


8








keeps the Employee’s data longer, it will be to satisfy legal, regulatory or tax obligations and the Company’s legal basis would be for compliance with relevant laws or regulations.


Data Subjects Rights. The Employee may have a number of rights under data privacy laws in the Employee’s country of employment (and country of residence, if different). For example, the Employee’s rights may include the right to (i) request access or copies of personal data the Company processes, (ii) request rectification of incorrect data, (iii) request deletion of data, (iv) place restrictions on processing, (v) lodge complaints with competent authorities in the Employee’s country, and/or (vi) request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of your personal data.  To receive clarification regarding the Employee’s rights or to exercise his or her rights, the Employee should contact the Employee’s local HR manager or global.equity@hp.com

Upon completion of the Restriction Period, Shares issued pursuant to Section 3 above shall be deposited with the Trustee (as further detailed below) in lieu of the RSUs previously held by the Trustee; provided, however, that a portion of such Shares may be surrendered in payment of any Tax-Related in accordance with Section 12 of this Grant Agreement, unless the Company, in its sole discretion, establishes alternative procedures for the payment of such taxes.


(b) Without derogating from the above, the Shares shall further be held in accordance with the undertakings of the Company and the Trustee, under a Trust Agreement in accordance with Section 102(b)(2) of the Israeli Tax Ordinance.  Under the conditions of Section 102(b)(2), the RSUs and the Shares may be issued to the Employee only through the Trustee.  To receive the tax treatment provided for in Section 102(b)(2), the RSUs and the Shares must be issued to the Trustee for a period of no less than 24 months from their Grant Date and deposit with the Trustee (the “Lock-Up Period”). In order for the tax benefits of Section 102(b)(2) to apply, as long as the RSUs are held by the Trustee, the RSUs or the underlying Shares may not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or mortgaged (other than through a transfer by will or by operation of law), nor may they be the subject of an attachment or security interest, and no power of attorney or transfer deed shall be given in respect thereof prior to the payment of the tax liability.  Upon the conclusion of the Lock-Up Period the Trustee may release the Shares issued hereunder to the Employee only after (i) the receipt by the Trustee of an acknowledgment from the Israeli Income Tax Authority that the Employee has paid all applicable tax due pursuant to the Israeli Tax Ordinance and Section 102, or (ii) the Trustee withholds any applicable tax due pursuant to the Israeli Tax Ordinance and Section 102.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Employee shall elect to release the Shares prior to the conclusion of the Lock-up Period, the sanctions under Section 102 shall apply to and shall be borne solely by the Employee. 


(c)  The Employee understands that in the event of a distribution of rights, including an issuance of stock dividend or bonus shares, in connection with the RSU (the “Additional Rights”), all such Additional Rights shall be deposited with and/or issued to the Trustee for the benefit of the Employee, and shall also be subject to the provisions of Section 102(b)(2). The Lock-Up Period for such Additional Rights shall be measured from the commencement of the Lock-Up Period of the RSU to be issued hereunder, from which the Additional Rights were declared or distributed. 


Death of the Employee
The following provision supplements Section 9 of the Grant Agreement:


As long as the Shares are held by the Trustee for the benefit of the Employee, all rights of the Employee over the Shares cannot be transferred, assigned, pledged or mortgaged, other than by will or laws of descent and distribution.

The Company, with its registered office at 1501 Page Mill, Palo Alto, California 94304, USA, is solely responsible for the administration of the Plan.

Plan Document Acknowledgment
The Employee acknowledges he or she has received a copy of the Plan, has reviewed the Plan and the Grant Agreement in their entirety and fully understands and accepts all provisions of the Plan and the Grant Agreement. 


In addition, by signing below, the Employee further acknowledges that having read and specifically and expressly approved the terms and conditions in Section 15 of the Grant Agreement, in which the following is clearly described and established: (i) participation in the Plan does not constitute an acquired right; (ii) the Plan and participation in the Plan is offered by the Company on a wholly discretionary basis; (iii) participation in the Plan is voluntary; and (iv) the Company, its Subsidiaries and its Affiliates are not responsible for any decrease in the value of the Shares underlying the RSUs.

Finally, the Employee does not reserve any action or right to bring any claim against the Company for any compensation or damages as a result of participation in the Plan and the Employee therefore grants a full and broad release to his/her Employer and the Company and its other Subsidiaries and Affiliates with respect to any claim that may arise under the Plan.

The Grant Agreement, the Plan and all other materials the Employee may receive regarding participation in the Plan do not constitute advertising or an offering of securities in Russia.  Absent any requirement under local law, the issuance of securities pursuant to the Plan has not and will not be registered in Russia; hence, the securities described in any Plan-related documents may not be used for offering or public circulation in Russia.  


Exchange Control Notice
The Employee may be required to repatriate certain cash amounts received with respect to the RSUs in Russia as soon as the Employee intends to use those cash amounts for any purpose, including reinvestment.

Under the Directive of the Russian Central Bank (the “CBR”) N 5371-U, there are no restrictions on transfer of cash into and from accounts opened by Russian currency residents with a foreign financial market institution other than a bank.

Statutory exceptions to the repatriation requirement also may apply.

SPAIN


Terms and Conditions


Acknowledgment and Waiver
The following provisions supplement Section 15 of the Grant Agreement:


The Employee acknowledges that he or she consents to participation in the Plan and has received a copy of the Plan.


The Employee understands that the Company has unilaterally, gratuitously and discretionally decided to grant RSUs under the Plan to individuals who may be employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates throughout the world.  The decision is a limited decision that is entered into upon the express assumption and condition that any grant will not economically or otherwise bind the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates on an ongoing basis except as provided in the Plan.  Consequently, the Employee understands that the RSUs are granted on the assumption and condition that the RSUs or the Shares acquired upon vesting shall not become a part of any employment contract (either with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates) and shall not be considered a mandatory benefit, salary for any purposes (including severance compensation) or any other right whatsoever.  In addition, the Employee understands that 




26








this grant would not be made to the Employee but for the assumptions and conditions referred to above; thus, the Employee acknowledges and freely accepts that should any or all of the assumptions be mistaken or should any of the conditions not be met for any reason, then the RSUs shall be null and void.


The RSUs are a conditional right to Shares and can be forfeited in the case of, or affected by, the Employee's termination of service or employment.  This will be the case, for example, even if (1) the Employee is considered to be unfairly dismissed without good cause; (2) the Employee is dismissed for disciplinary or objective reasons or due to a collective dismissal; (3) the Employee terminates employment or service due to a change of work location, duties or any other employment or contractual condition; (4) the Employee terminates employment or service due to unilateral breach of contract of the Company, the Employer, or any other Subsidiary or Affiliate; or (5) the Employee's employment or service terminates for any other reason whatsoever, except for reasons specified in the Grant Agreement.  Consequently, upon termination of the Employee's employment or service for any of the reasons set forth above, the Employee may automatically lose any rights to the unvested RSUs granted to him or her as of the date of the Employee's termination of employment, as described in the Plan and the Grant Agreement.
