A SAR may be included in an Incentive Stock Option only at the time of grant but may be included in a Nonstatutory Stock Option at the
time of grant or thereafter.  A SAR granted under the Plan may provide that it will be exercisable only in the event of a Change in Control.

 

(d) Exercise of SARs.  Upon exercise of a SAR, the Participant  (or any person having the right to exercise the SAR after his or her death) shall receive

exceeds the exercise price of the SAR.  If, on the date when a SAR expires, the Exercise Price of the SAR is less than the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the SAR on such date but any portion of the SAR has not been exercised, then the SAR shall automatically be deemed to be exercised as of such date with respect to such portion.  A SAR Agreement may also provide for an automatic exercise of the SAR on an earlier date.

The Administrator shall determine the level of achievement against any Performance Criteria and such determination shall be final and binding.  The Administrator shall identify target Performance Criteria not later than the 90th day of the performance period.  A Restricted Stock Unit Agreement
may provide for accelerated vesting in the event of the Participant’s death, disability or retirement or other events.

 

(d) Voting and Dividend Rights.  The holders of Restricted Stock Units shall have no voting rights.  Prior to settlement or forfeiture, any Restricted
Stock Unit awarded under the Plan may, at the Administrator’s discretion, carry with it a right to dividend equivalents.  Such right entitles the Participant to be credited with an amount equal to all cash dividends paid on one Share while the Restricted Stock Unit is outstanding.  Dividend equivalents may be converted into additional Restricted Stock Units.  Settlement of dividend equivalents may be made in the form of cash, in the form of Shares, or in a combination of both.  Prior
to distribution, any dividend equivalents that are not paid shall be subject to the same conditions and restrictions as the Restricted Stock Units to which they attach.

or (iii) any combination of both, as set out in the Restricted Stock Unit Agreement or as the Administrator shall determine.  The actual number of Restricted Stock Units eligible for settlement may be larger or smaller than the number included in the original Award, based on predetermined performance factors. Methods of converting Restricted Stock Units into cash may include (without limitation) a method based on the average
Fair Market Value of Shares over a series of trading days.  Vested Restricted Stock Units may be settled in a lump sum or in installments.  The distribution may occur or commence when all vesting conditions applicable to the Restricted Stock Units have been satisfied or have lapsed, or it may be deferred to any later date.  The amount of a deferred distribution may be increased by an interest factor or by dividend equivalents.  Until an Award of Restricted Stock Units is
settled, the number of such Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 15.

(f) Death of Recipient.  Any Award of Restricted Stock Units that becomes payable after the Participant’s death shall be distributed to his or her designated
beneficiary or beneficiaries or, if none was designated, the Participant’s estate.

(h) Creditors’ Rights.  A holder of Restricted Stock Units shall have no rights other than those of a general creditor of the Company.  Restricted
Stock Units represent an unfunded and unsecured obligation of the Company, subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable Restricted Stock Unit Agreement.

as the Administrator in its sole discretion shall determine.

 

13. Suspension or Termination of Awards.  If at any time (including after a notice of exercise has been delivered) the Administrator reasonably believes that a
Participant, other than an independent Director, has committed an act of misconduct as described in this Section 13, the Administrator may suspend the Participant’s right to exercise any Award, pending a determination of whether an act of misconduct has been committed.  If the Administrator determines that a Participant, other than an independent Director, has committed an act of embezzlement, fraud or breach of fiduciary duty, or if a Participant makes an unauthorized disclosure of any trade
secret or confidential information of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or induces any customer to breach a contract with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, neither the Participant nor his or her estate shall be entitled to exercise unexercised Options or SARs or continue vesting in Restricted Shares or Restricted Stock Units, and any unexercised Options and SARs, unvested Restricted Shares and unvested and/or vested but not yet settled Restricted Stock Units shall be forfeited.

14. Non-Transferability of Awards.  Unless determined otherwise by the Administrator, an Award may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred or
disposed of in any manner other than by will, by beneficiary designation or by the laws of descent or distribution and may be exercised, during the lifetime of the Participant, only by the Participant.  If the Administrator makes an Award transferable, such Award shall contain such additional terms and conditions as the Administrator deems appropriate.

 

15. Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization.

 

(a) Changes in Capitalization.  In the event of a declaration of a stock dividend, stock split, combination or reclassification of shares, extraordinary dividend
of cash and/or assets, recapitalization, reorganization or any similar event affecting the Shares or other securities of the Company, the Administrator shall appropriately and equitably adjust the number and kind of Shares or other securities which are subject to this Plan or subject to any Awards previously granted, and/or the exercise or settlement prices of such Awards, in order to reflect such change and thereby preclude a dilution or enlargement of benefits under an Award.

 

(b) No Rights.  The existence of outstanding Awards shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Company or its shareholders to make or authorize any
or all adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations, exchanges, or other changes in the Company’s capital structure or its business, or any merger or consolidation of the Company or any issuance of Shares or other securities or subscription rights thereto, or any issuance of bonds, debentures, preferred or prior preference securities ahead of or affecting the Shares or other securities of the Company or the rights thereof, or the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all
or any part of its assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise. Further, except as expressly provided in this Plan (i) the issuance by the Company of shares or any class of securities convertible into shares of any class, for cash, property, labor or services, upon direct sale, upon the exercise of rights or warrants to subscribe therefor, or upon conversion of shares or obligations of the Company convertible into such shares or other securities, (ii)
the payment of a dividend in property other than Shares, or (iii) the occurrence of any similar transaction, and in any case whether or not for fair value, shall not affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number of Shares subject to Options or other Awards previously granted or the purchase price per Share.

 

(c) No Fractional Shares.  No right to purchase fractional Shares shall result from any adjustment in Options or SARs pursuant to this Section 15.  In
case of any such adjustment, the Shares subject to the Option or SAR shall be rounded down to the nearest whole share.

 

(d) Dissolution or Liquidation.  In the event of the proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the Administrator shall notify each Participant as soon
as practicable prior to the effective date of such proposed transaction.  The Administrator in its discretion may provide for a Participant to have the right to exercise an Option or SAR until ten (10) days prior to such transaction as to all of the Shares covered thereby, including Shares as to which the Option or SAR would not otherwise be exercisable.  In addition, the Administrator may provide that any forfeiture condition applicable to any Shares issued under the Plan shall lapse as to
all such Shares, provided the proposed dissolution or liquidation takes place at the time and in the manner contemplated.  To the extent it has not been previously exercised, an Option or SAR will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed action.

16. Merger, Reorganization or Asset Sale.
  In the event the Company is a party to a merger, consolidation or reorganization, or the sale of substantially all of the assets of the Company, then each outstanding Award shall be subject to the agreement of merger, consolidation or reorganization or sale.  Such agreement shall provide for one or more of the following:


 

(a) The continuation of outstanding Awards by the Company (if the Company is the surviving corporation).

 

(b) The assumption of outstanding Awards by the surviving corporation or its parent.

 

(c) The substitution by the surviving corporation or its parent of new awards for outstanding Awards.

 

(d) Full exercisability of outstanding Options and SARs and full vesting of the Shares subject to them, followed by the cancellation of such Options and SARs.  The full exercisability of outstanding Options and SARs and full
vesting of such Shares, and any exercise of outstanding Options and SARs, may be contingent on the closing of the merger, reorganization, consolidation or asset sale.

 

(e) The cancellation of outstanding Options and SARs and a payment to the holding Participants equal to the excess of (i) the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to such Options and SARs (whether or not such Options and SARs
are then exercisable or such Shares are then vested) as of the closing date of such merger, reorganization, consolidation or asset sale, over (ii) their Exercise Price.  Such payment shall be made in the form of cash, cash equivalents, or securities of the surviving corporation or its parent with a Fair Market Value equal to the required amount.  Such payment may be made in installments and may be deferred until the date or dates when such Options and SARs would have become exercisable
or such Shares would have vested.  Such payment may be subject to vesting based on the Participant’s continuing Service, provided that the vesting schedule shall not be less favorable to the Participant than the schedule under which such Options and SARs would have become exercisable or such Shares would have vested.  If the Exercise Price of the Shares subject to such Options and SARs exceeds the Fair Market Value of such Shares, then such Options and SARs may be cancelled without making
a payment to the Participants.  For purposes of this Subsection (e), the Fair Market Value of any security shall be determined without regard to any vesting conditions that may apply to such security.

 

(f) The cancellation of outstanding Restricted Stock Units and a payment to the Participants equal to the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to such Restricted Stock Units (whether or not such Restricted Stock Units are then vested)
as of the closing date of such merger or consolidation.  Such payment shall be made in the form of cash, cash equivalents, or securities of the surviving corporation or its parent with a Fair Market Value equal to the required amount.  Such payment may be made in installments and may be deferred until the date or dates when such Restricted Stock Units would have vested.  Such payment may be subject to vesting based on the Participant’s continuing Service, provided that the
vesting schedule shall not be less favorable to the Participant than the schedule under which such Stock Units would have vested.  For purposes of this Subsection (f), the Fair Market Value of any security shall be determined without regard to any vesting conditions that may apply to such security.

 

17. Date of Grant.  The date of grant of an Award shall be, for all purposes, the date on which the Administrator makes the determination granting such Award,
or such other later date as is determined by the Administrator.  Notice of the determination shall be provided to each Participant within a reasonable time after the date of such grant.

18. Tax Withholding.  To the extent required by Applicable Law, the Administrator may and/or a Participant shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Company
for the satisfaction of any withholding tax obligations that arise with respect to any Award or any sale of Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue Shares or to recognize the disposition of such Shares until such obligations are satisfied. To the extent permitted or required by the Administrator, these obligations may or shall be satisfied by having the Company withhold a portion of the Shares that otherwise would be issued to a Participant under such Award or by tendering Shares previously acquired
by the Participant.

 

19. Unfunded Plan. Insofar as it provides for Awards, the Plan shall be unfunded. Although bookkeeping accounts may be established with respect to Participants who are granted
Awards under this Plan, any such accounts will be used merely as a bookkeeping convenience. The Company shall not be required to segregate any assets which may at any time be represented by Awards, nor shall this Plan be construed as providing for such segregation, nor shall the Company or the Administrator be deemed to be a trustee of securities or cash to be awarded under the Plan.

 

20. Amendment and Termination of the Plan.

 

(a) Amendment and Termination.  The Board may at any time amend, alter, suspend or terminate the Plan.

 

(b) Shareholder Approval.  The Company shall obtain shareholder approval of any Plan amendment to the extent necessary and desirable to comply with Applicable
Laws, including the requirements of any exchange or quotation system on which the Shares are listed or quoted.  Such shareholder approval, if required, shall be obtained in such a manner and to such a degree as is required by Applicable Laws.

 

(c) Effect of Amendment or Termination.  No amendment, alteration, suspension or termination of the Plan shall impair the rights of any Participant under an existing
Award, unless mutually agreed otherwise between the Participant and the Administrator, which agreement must be in writing and signed by the Participant and the Company.

 

21. Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares.

 

(a) Legal Compliance.  Shares shall not be issued under the Plan unless the issuance and delivery of such Shares shall comply with Applicable Laws, and shall be
further subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such compliance.

 

(b) Investment Representations.  As a condition to the issuance of Shares under the Plan, the Company may require the Participant to represent and warrant at the
time of any such issuance that the Shares are being purchased only for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such Shares if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation is required.

 

22. Liability of Company.

 

(a) Inability to Obtain Authority; Tax Consequences.  The Company shall not be liable to a Participant or other persons as to: (a) the non-issuance or sale of
Shares as to which the Company has been unable to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority deemed by the Company’s counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder; and (b) any tax consequence expected, but not realized, by any Participant or other person due to the receipt, exercise or settlement of any Option or other Award granted under this Plan.

(b) Grants Exceeding Allotted Shares.  If the number of Shares covered by an Award exceeds, as of the date of grant, the number of Shares that may be issued under
the Plan without additional shareholder approval, such Award shall be void with respect to such excess Shares, unless shareholder approval of an amendment sufficiently increasing the number of Shares subject to the Plan is timely obtained in accordance with Section 20(b) of the Plan.

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned President and Chief Executive Officer of Logitech International S.A. certifies that the foregoing Logitech International S.A. 2006 Stock Incentive Plan was duly adopted by the Board of Directors of Logitech International S.A. on the 15th day
of June, 2006 and approved by the shareholders of the Company on the 16th day of June, 2006, and amended by the Board of Directors on the 23rd day of June, 2009 and approved by the shareholders of the Company on the 1st day of September, 2009.
