			OPTION
		

		
			﻿
		

			
	
			
				 1.
			

			
	
			
			TERMS OF OPTION




		
			Union Pacific Corporation (the “Company”), has granted to you a nonqualified stock option (the “Option”) to purchase up to the number of shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Common Stock”), set forth in the Grant Notice.  The exercise price per share and the other terms and conditions of the Option are set forth in the Grant Notice, these Standard Terms and Conditions, the Plan and, if applicable, the Key Employee Continuity Plan, the Severance Policy and/or the Policy for Recoupment of Incentive Compensation, each as amended from time to time.
		

			
	
			
				 2.
			

			
	
			
			NONQUALIFIED STOCK OPTION




		
			The Option is not intended to be an incentive stock option under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and will be interpreted accordingly.
		

			
	
			
				 3.
			

			
	
			
			EXERCISE OF OPTION




		
			The Option shall not be exercisable as of the Grant Date set forth in the Grant Notice.  After the Grant Date, to the extent not previously exercised, and subject to termination or acceleration as provided in these Standard Terms and Conditions, the Plan and, if applicable, the Key Employee Continuity Plan, the Severance Policy and/or the Policy for

		Recoupment of Incentive Compensation, the Option shall be exercisable only to the extent it becomes vested, as described in the Grant Notice, these Standard Terms and Conditions, the terms of the Plan and, if applicable, the Key Employee Continuity Plan, the Severance Policy and/or the Policy for Recoupment of Incentive Compensation, to purchase up to that number of shares of Common Stock as set forth in the Grant Notice, provided that (except as may be provided otherwise in Section 4 below) you remain employed with the Company and do not experience a termination of employment.  
		

		
			The exercise price (the “Exercise Price”) of the Option is set forth in the Grant Notice.  The Company shall not be obligated to issue any shares of Common Stock until you have paid the total Exercise Price for that number of shares of Common Stock.  To exercise the Option (or any part thereof), you must deliver to the Company appropriate notice specifying the number of whole shares of Common Stock you wish to purchase accompanied by valid payment in the form of (i) a check, (ii) an attestation form confirming your current ownership of whole shares of Common Stock equal in value to the total Exercise Price for that number of shares of Common Stock, and/or (iii) an authorization to sell shares equal in value to the total Exercise Price for that number of shares of Common Stock.  Notices and authorizations shall be delivered and all checks shall be payable to the Company’s third party stock plan administrator, or as otherwise directed by the Company.
		

		
			Fractional shares may not be exercised.  Shares of Common Stock will be issued as soon as practicable after exercise.  Notwithstanding the above, for administrative or other reasons, including, but not limited to the Company’s determination that exercisability of the Option would violate any federal, state or other applicable laws, the Company may from time to time suspend your ability to exercise an Option for limited periods of time, which suspensions shall not change the period in which the Option is exercisable, except as otherwise provided in the Plan.
		

			
	
			
				 4.
			

			
	
			
			EXPIRATION OF OPTION




		
			Except as otherwise may be provided by the Committee consistent with the terms of the Plan, the Option shall expire and cease to be exercisable as of the earlier of (a) the Expiration Date set forth in the Grant Notice or (b) the date specified below in Sections 4A through 4I, as applicable. 
		

			
	
			
				 A.
			

			
	
			
			If your termination of employment is by reason of death or you are determined to be disabled under the provisions of the Company’s long-term disability plan, then any vesting period with respect to the Option shall be deemed to be satisfied and the Option shall become fully vested and exercisable (by you or your estate, beneficiary or legal representative, as the case may be) at the date of such termination of employment or the first day on which you are determined to be disabled under such long-term disability plan, as the case may be, until the date that is five (5) years following the date of such termination of employment or the first day of disability as determined under such long-term disability plan, as the case may be.

				 B.
			

			
	
			
			If you remain continuously employed with the Company until September 30, 2020, (which shall include a period of time during which you are absent from active employment in accordance with a leave of absence policy adopted by the Company), and have a termination of employment at or after attaining 62/10 Status as defined below in this Section 4B, then the Option shall be exercisable in accordance with and at the times it becomes vested, as described in the Grant Notice, notwithstanding your termination of employment with the Company, until the date that is five (5) years following the date of such termination of employment. “62/10 Status” as to a Participant means attaining: (i) age 62; and (ii) at least 10 years of vesting service. For this purpose, vesting service shall be calculated by applying the rules for determining “Vesting Service” under the Pension Plan for Salaried Employees of Union Pacific Corporation and Affiliates (“UPC Pension Plan”), regardless of whether you were ever a participant in the UPC Pension Plan.




			
	
			
				 C.
			

			
	
			
			In the event of a Change in Control that occurs prior to your termination of employment, in which the acquiring or surviving company in the transaction does not assume or continue the Option upon the Change in Control, any vesting period with respect to the Option shall be deemed to be satisfied and the Option shall become fully vested and exercisable (provided that the Option may be canceled upon the consummation of the Change in Control without payment of any additional consideration if the exercise price of the Option is less than the consideration per Share payable to shareholders of the Company in such Change in Control) and you may exercise the Option not assumed or continued until the date that is five (5) years following the date of such Change in Control.  If you terminate employment following such Change in Control for a reason described in 4G, any unexercised portion of the Option shall be immediately forfeited and canceled as of the date of such termination of employment.




			
	
			
				 D.
			

			
	
			
			If you terminate employment and at the time of such termination of employment you are “Retirement Eligible” (i.e., at least age 65 or at least age 55 with 10 or more years of vesting service (determined as provided in Section 4B, above)), you may exercise any portion of the Option that is vested and exercisable at the time of your termination of employment until the date that is five (5) years following the date of such termination of employment.




			
	
			
				 E.
			

			
	
			
			Except as provided in Section 4F hereof, in the event you terminate employment with the Company prior to becoming Retirement Eligible, and as a result of such termination of employment you are eligible for and entitled to payment of severance benefits under the provisions of a Severance Policy that include extension of the exercise period with respect to such Option, and provided you satisfy the conditions of the Severance Policy, you may exercise any portion of the Option that is vested and exercisable at the time of your termination of employment until the date established under the Severance Policy, provided that in no event will such date extend beyond the Expiration Date set forth in the Grant Notice.




			
	
			
				 F.
			

			
	
			
			If your employment is involuntarily terminated by the Company (other than a termination as a result of disability, cause or gross misconduct) within two (2) years

			following a Change in Control, any vesting period with respect to the Option shall be deemed to be satisfied and you may exercise the Option upon the date of such termination of employment, and the Option shall remain exercisable until the date that is three (3) years following the date of such termination of employment (or until the date that is five (5) years following the date of such termination of employment, in the case of a termination of employment by reason of your death or a termination of employment described in Section 4B or Section 4D hereof).  Furthermore, the Option exercise period shall be as described in Section 4A in the event you are determined to be disabled under the provisions of the Company’s long-term disability plan prior to your termination of employment described in this Section 4F. 




			
	
			
				 G.
			

			
	
			
			Notwithstanding the foregoing Sections 4A through 4F, if you are an Eligible Employee (within the meaning of the Key Employee Continuity Plan) in the Key Employee Continuity Plan and incur a Severance (within the meaning of the Key Employee Continuity Plan), the Option shall vest and be exercisable in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Key Employee Continuity Plan.




		
			﻿
		

			
	
			
				 H.
			

			
	
			
			Except as otherwise provided in the foregoing Sections 4A through 4G: (i) you may exercise any portion of the Option that is vested and exercisable at the time of your termination of employment until the date that is three (3) months following the date of such termination of employment; and (ii) any portion of the Option that is not vested and exercisable at the time of such termination of employment shall be forfeited and canceled as of the date of such termination of employment.




		
			﻿
		

			
	
			
				 I.
			

			
	
			
			Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4, if your employment is terminated by the Company for deliberate, willful or gross misconduct, the unexercised portion of the Option, whether or not then vested and exercisable, shall be immediately forfeited and canceled as of the date of such termination of employment.

			TYPES OF CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION OR TRADE SECRETS




		
			You acknowledge that you developed or have had and will in the future continue to have access to one or more of the following types of Confidential Information or Trade Secrets: information about rates or costs; customer or supplier agreements and negotiations; business opportunities; scheduling and delivery methods; business and marketing plans; financial information or plans; communications within the attorney-client privilege or other privileges; operating procedures and methods; construction methods and plans; proprietary computer systems design, programming or software; strategic plans; succession plans; proprietary company training programs; employee performance, compensation or benefits; negotiations or strategies relating to collective bargaining agreements and/or labor disputes;  and policies and internal or external claims or complaints regarding personal injuries, employment laws or policies, environmental protection, or hazardous materials.

			PRIOR NOTICE OF EMPLOYMENT, ETC




		
			(i)  You acknowledge that if you become an employee, contractor, or consultant for any other person or entity engaged in the Business of the Company as defined in Section 11, this would create a substantial risk that you would, intentionally or unintentionally, disclose or rely upon the Company’s Confidential Information or Trade Secrets for the benefit of the other person or entity to the detriment of the Company.  You further acknowledge that such disclosures would be particularly damaging if made shortly after you leave the Company.  You agree that while you are employed by or working for the Company and for a period of one (1) year after you leave the Company, before accepting any employment or affiliation with another person or entity you will give written notice to the Sr. HR Officer of your intention to accept such employment or affiliation.

			(ii)  If you and the Sr. HR Officer are unable to reach agreement on this issue, you agree to submit this issue to arbitration as set forth in Section 14 below, for final resolution.  You cannot begin to work for another person or entity engaged in the Business of the Company as defined in Section 11, until the Sr. HR Officer or an arbitrator has determined that such employment could reasonably be expected to be performed without improper disclosure of the Company’s Confidential Information or Trade Secrets.

			NON-SOLICITATION OF CUSTOMERS




		
			You agree that during employment with the Company, and for a period of one (1) year following your departure from the Company, you will not (directly or in association with others or otherwise) call on or solicit any of the Company’s customers with whom you had personal contact during the period from the Grant Date of this Option until such Option has fully vested (or, if earlier, the date your employment with the Company ceased), for the purpose of providing the customers with goods and/or services similar in nature to those provided by the Company in its Business as defined below.

				 11.
			

			
	
			
			NON-COMPETITION




		
			You agree that during employment with the Company, and for a period of one (1) year following your departure from the Company, you will not (directly or indirectly, in association with others or otherwise) engage in any activity which is the same or substantially the same as or competitive with the Business (as defined below) including, without limitation, engagement as an officer, director, proprietor, employee, partner, manager, member, investor (other than as a holder of less than 2% of the outstanding capital stock of a publicly traded corporation), guarantor, consultant, advisor, agent, sales representative or other participant, in any market in which the Company conducts its Business.  For purposes of these Standard Terms and Conditions, the term “Business” means the transportation of goods in interstate commerce and related services in or through or for any state in which the Company or any of its affiliates provides such services directly or indirectly and any other activity that supports such operations including by the way of example but not limitation, marketing, information systems, logistics, technology development or implementation, terminal services and any other activity of the Company or any of its affiliates.

			INJUNCTIVE RELIEF




		
			You agree that each of the restraints contained herein is necessary for the protection of the goodwill, Confidential Information, Trade Secrets and other legitimate interests of the Company; that each and every one of these restraints is reasonable in respect to subject matter, length of time and geographic area; and that these restraints, neither individually nor in the aggregate, will not prevent you from obtaining other suitable employment during the period in which you are bound by such restraints.  You further acknowledge that, if you breach any of the covenants contained in Sections 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 or 11, the damage to the Company would be irreparable.  You therefore agree that the Company, in addition to any other remedies available to it, including, without limitation, the remedies set forth in Sections 13 and 14, shall be entitled to injunctive relief against your breach or threaten breach of said covenants.  You and the Company further agree that, in the event that any one or more of the provisions of Sections 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 or 11 shall be determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable by reason of its being overly broad as to time and/or scope, such provision shall be deemed to be modified to permit its enforcement to the maximum extent permitted by law.

			VIOLATION OF PROMISES




		
			You agree that if you violate any one or more of your promises set forth in Sections 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 or 11, then, in lieu of or in addition to any other remedies available to Company as permitted by applicable law, the Option, to the extent then unexercised, whether vested or unvested, shall be immediately forfeited and cancelled.  If at any time the Committee or Sr. HR Officer notifies (the date such notice is provided, the “Notice Date”) the Company that they believe that you have violated any one or more of the promises set forth in Sections 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 or 11, the vesting of your Option may be suspended pending a determination of whether you violated any such provision by a tribunal specified in Section 14 and 16 below.  In addition, in lieu of or in addition to any remedy provided for in Section 12, at any time the Company may seek in any such proceeding that you be required to immediately deliver to the Company an amount (in cash or in shares of Common Stock) equal to the market value (on the date of exercise) of any shares of Common Stock acquired on exercise of the Option less the exercise price paid for such shares acquired by you upon exercise of the Option at any time during the three (3) full fiscal years preceding the Notice Date.  You agree that you will deliver such shares of Common Stock (or the fair market value thereof) to the Company on such terms and conditions as may be required by the Company.  You further agree that the Company will be entitled to enforce this repayment obligation by all legal means available, including, without limitation, to set off the market value of any such shares of Common Stock against any amount that might be owed to you by the Company.

			DISPUTE RESOLUTION




		
			You and the Company each agree that any controversy, claim, or dispute arising out of or relating to these Standard Terms and Conditions or arising out of or relating to your employment relationship with the Company or any of its affiliates, the termination of such relationship, or your conduct following the termination of such relationship, shall be resolved by binding arbitration before a neutral arbitrator on an individual basis only, and not in any form of class, collective, or private attorney general representative proceeding.  By way of example only, claims subject to this agreement to arbitrate include claims litigated under federal, state and local statutory or common law, such as the Family Medical Leave Act, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, Older Workers Benefit Protection Act of 1990,, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Civil Rights Act of 1990, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Federal Employers Liability Act, the Federal Railway Safety Act, the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act, the law of contract and the law of tort.  You and the Company each agree that such claims may be brought in an appropriate administrative forum, but at the point at which you or the Company seek a judicial forum to resolve the matter, this agreement for binding arbitration becomes effective, and you and the Company each hereby knowingly and voluntarily waive any right to have any such dispute tried and adjudicated by a judge or jury. 
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			The parties will submit the dispute, within 30 business days following service of notice of such dispute by one party on the other, to the American Arbitration Association (AAA) for prompt resolution in Salt Lake City, Utah, under its rules for employment disputes. There shall be a single arbitrator, chosen in accordance with such rules, who at such time shall be on AAA’s Judicial Panel. The decision of the arbitrator will be final and binding upon the parties, and judgment may be entered thereon in accordance with applicable law in any court having jurisdiction. The arbitrator shall have the authority to make an award of monetary damages and interest thereon. The arbitrator shall have no authority to award, and the parties hereby waive any right to seek or receive, specific performance or an injunction, punitive or exemplary damages. The arbitrator will have no authority to order a modification or amendment of these Standard Terms and Conditions. The arbitrator shall have the authority to award costs of arbitration, including reasonable attorney’s fees, to the prevailing party, but in the absence of such award the parties shall bear their own attorney and filing fees, unless otherwise agreed upon mutually by the parties or required by law.  The Company shall bear the cost of the arbitrator’s fees.

			Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may seek to enforce the employee covenants set forth in Sections 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 13 above, in any court of competent jurisdiction as set forth in Section 16 below.

			If any provision of these Standard Terms and Conditions is, becomes, or is deemed to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such provision shall be construed or deemed amended or limited in scope to conform to applicable laws or, in the discretion of the Company, it shall be stricken and the remainder of these Standard Terms and Conditions shall remain in force and effect.

			CHOICE OF LAW; JURISDICTION




		
			All questions pertaining to the construction, regulation, validity, and effect of these Standard Terms and Conditions shall be determined in accordance with the laws of the State of Utah, without regard to the conflict of laws doctrine.  With respect to any claim or dispute involving your grant of the Option and/or these Standard Terms and Conditions that is not subject to arbitration pursuant to Section 14 hereof, you and the Company each hereby consent and submit to the personal jurisdiction and venue of any state or federal court located in the county of Salt Lake City within the State of Utah and, recognizing the appropriateness of the State of Utah for any such matters due to the Company being incorporated in Utah, you and the Company hereby agree and consent to the state and federal courts located in the county of Salt Lake City within the State of Utah as the sole and exclusive forum for resolution of any and all claims, causes of action or disputes arising out of or related to your grant of the Option and these Standard Terms and Conditions (including all terms incorporated by reference into these Standard Terms and Conditions).   With respect to employees who are subject to California law, Sections 8(ii), 9 and 11 shall not apply.

			RESTRICTIONS ON RESALES OF SHARES ACQUIRED PURSUANT TO OPTION EXERCISE




		
			The Company may impose such restrictions, conditions or limitations as it determines appropriate as to the timing and manner of any resales by you or other subsequent transfers by you of any Common Stock issued as a result of the exercise of the Option, including without limitation (a) restrictions under an insider trading policy, (b) restrictions designed to delay and/or coordinate the timing and manner of sales by you and other optionholders and (c) restrictions as to the use of a specified brokerage firm for such resales or other transfers.

			INCOME TAXES




		
			The Company shall not deliver shares of Common Stock in respect of the exercise of any Option unless and until you have made satisfactory arrangements to pay or otherwise satisfy all applicable tax withholding obligations.  Unless you pay the tax withholding obligations to the Company by cash or check in connection with the exercise of the Option, tax withholding may be effected, at the Company’s option, by withholding Common Stock issuable in connection with the exercise of the Option (provided that shares of Common Stock may be withheld only to the extent that such tax withholding will not result in adverse accounting

			CLAWBACK AND RECOUPMENT




		
			﻿
		

		
			If you are or become a Covered Person under the Company’s Policy for Recoupment of Incentive Compensation, you agree that your Option, and shares issuable upon exercise of the Option, are subject to recoupment, including in connection with a financial restatement or any detrimental conduct, pursuant to and in accordance with the Company’s Policy for Recoupment of Incentive Compensation, as amended from time to time, and pursuant to any other policy the Company may adopt pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, other applicable law, or stock exchange listing standard.  No recovery of compensation under such a clawback policy shall be treated as an event giving rise to a right to terminate employment for “good reason” or “constructive termination” (or any similar term) under any agreement with the Company.
