2011 Form of Stock Option Agreement (Non-U.S. Participants)



 Exhibit 10.56 
 MAGNACHIP SEMICONDUCTOR CORPORATION 
 FORM OF STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT

 (For Non-US Participant) 
 MagnaChip Semiconductor Corporation (the “Company”) has granted to the Participant named in the Notice of Grant of Stock Option (the “Grant Notice”) to
which this Stock Option Agreement (the “Option Agreement”) is attached an option (the “Option”) to purchase certain shares of Stock upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Grant Notice and this
Option Agreement. The Option has been granted pursuant to and shall in all respects be subject to the terms and conditions of the MagnaChip Semiconductor Corporation 2011 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), as amended to the
Date of Grant, the provisions of which are incorporated herein by reference. By signing the Grant Notice, the Participant: (a) acknowledges receipt of, and represents that the Participant has read and is familiar with, the Grant Notice, this
Option Agreement, the Plan and a prospectus for the Plan prepared in connection with the registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission of shares issuable pursuant to the Option (the “Plan Prospectus”),
(b) accepts the Option subject to all of the terms and conditions of the Grant Notice, this Option Agreement and the Plan and (c) agrees to accept as binding, conclusive and final all decisions or interpretations of the Committee upon any
questions arising under the Grant Notice, this Option Agreement or the Plan. 
  

	 	1.	DEFINITIONS AND CONSTRUCTION. 


1.1  Definitions. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in
the Grant Notice or the Plan. 
 1.2  Construction. Captions and titles contained herein are for convenience
only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of any provision of this Option Agreement. Except when otherwise indicated by the context, the singular shall include the plural and the plural shall include the singular. Use of the term
“or” is not intended to be exclusive, unless the context clearly requires otherwise. 
  

	 	2.	CERTAIN CONDITIONS OF THE OPTION. 


2.1  Compliance with Local Law. The Participant agrees that the Participant will not acquire shares pursuant to the
Option, or transfer, assign, sell or otherwise deal in such shares, except in compliance with Local Law. 

2.2  Employment Conditions. By accepting the Option, the Participant acknowledges and agrees that: 

(a)  Any notice period mandated under Local Law shall not be treated as Service for the purpose of determining the vesting of
the Option; and the Participant’s right to exercise the Option after termination of Service, if any, will be measured by the date of termination of the Participant’s active Service and will not be extended by any notice period mandated
under Local Law. Subject to the foregoing and the provisions of the Plan, the Company, in its sole discretion, shall determine whether the Participant’s Service has terminated and the effective date of such termination. 







 (b) The vesting of the Option shall cease upon, and no shares shall become Vested Shares
following, the Participant’s termination of Service for any reason except as may be explicitly provided by the Plan or this Option Agreement. 
 (c) The Plan is established voluntarily by the Company. It is discretionary in nature and it may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time, unless otherwise provided in the
Plan or this Option Agreement. 
 (d) The grant of the Option is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual
or other right to receive future grants of Options, or benefits in lieu of Options, even if Options have been granted repeatedly in the past. 
 (e) All decisions with respect to future Option grants, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company. 
 (f) The Participant’s participation in the Plan shall not create a right to further Service with any Participating Company and shall not interfere with the ability of any Participating Company to
terminate the Participant’s Service at any time, with or without cause, insofar as permitted under Local Law. 
 (g) The
Participant is voluntarily participating in the Plan. 
 (h) The Option and resulting shares, if any, are an extraordinary item
that does not constitute compensation of any kind for Service of any kind rendered to any Participating Company, and which is outside the scope of the Participant’s employment contract, if any. 

(i) The Option is not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purpose, including, but not limited to, calculating any
severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, end-of-service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement benefits or similar payments. 
 (j) In the event that the Participant is not an employee of the Company, the Option grant will not be interpreted to form an employment contract or relationship with the Company; and furthermore the
Option grant will not be interpreted to form an employment contract with any other Participating Company. 
 (k) The future
value of the underlying shares is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty. If the underlying shares do not increase in value, the Option will have no value. If the Participant exercises the Option and obtains shares, the value of those shares
acquired upon exercise may increase or decrease in value, even below the Exercise Price. 
 (l) In consideration of the grant
of an Option, no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages arises from termination of the Option or diminution in value of the Option or shares purchased through exercise of the Option resulting from termination of the Participant’s
Service (for any reason whether or not in breach of Local Law) and the Participant irrevocably releases the Company and each other Participating Company from any such claim that may arise. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is found
by a court of 







 
competent jurisdiction to have arisen then, by signing this Option Agreement, the Participant shall be deemed irrevocably to have waived the Participant’s entitlement to pursue such a claim.

	 	3.	ADMINISTRATION. 

 All questions of interpretation concerning the Grant Notice, this Option Agreement, the Plan or any other form of agreement or other document employed by the Company in the administration of the Plan or
the Option shall be determined by the Committee. All such determinations by the Committee shall be final, binding and conclusive upon all persons having an interest in the Option, unless fraudulent or made in bad faith. Any and all actions,
decisions and determinations taken or made by the Committee in the exercise of its discretion pursuant to the Plan or the Option or other agreement thereunder (other than determining questions of interpretation pursuant to the preceding sentence)
shall be final, binding and conclusive upon all persons having an interest in the Option. Any Officer shall have the authority to act on behalf of the Company with respect to any matter, right, obligation, or election which is the responsibility of
or which is allocated to the Company herein, provided the Officer has apparent authority with respect to such matter, right, obligation, or election. 
  

	 	4.	EXERCISE OF THE OPTION. 


4.1  Right to Exercise. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Option shall be exercisable on and after the Initial Vesting
Date and prior to the termination of the Option (as provided in Section 5) in an amount not to exceed the number of Vested Shares less the number of shares previously acquired upon exercise of the Option. In no event shall the Option be
exercisable for more shares than the Number of Option Shares, as adjusted pursuant to Section 9. 

4.2  Method of Exercise. Exercise of the Option shall be by means of electronic or written notice (the
“Exercise Notice”) in a form authorized by the Company. An electronic Exercise Notice must be digitally signed or authenticated by the Participant in such manner as required by the notice and transmitted to the Company or an
authorized representative of the Company (including a third-party administrator designated by the Company). In the event that the Participant is not authorized or is unable to provide an electronic Exercise Notice, the Option shall be exercised by a
written Exercise Notice addressed to the Company, which shall be signed by the Participant and delivered in person, by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, by confirmed facsimile transmission, or by such other means as the Company
may permit, to the Company, or an authorized representative of the Company (including a third-party administrator designated by the Company). Each Exercise Notice, whether electronic or written, must state the Participant’s election to exercise
the Option, the number of whole shares of Stock for which the Option is being exercised and such other representations and agreements as to the Participant’s investment intent with respect to such shares as may be required pursuant to the
provisions of this Option Agreement. Further, each Exercise Notice must be received by the Company prior to the termination of the Option as set forth in Section 5 and must be accompanied by full payment of the aggregate Exercise Price for the
number of shares of Stock being purchased. The Option shall be deemed to be exercised upon receipt by the Company of such electronic or written Exercise Notice and the aggregate Exercise Price. 








	 	4.3	Payment of Exercise Price. 

 (a)  Forms of Consideration Authorized. Except as otherwise provided below, payment of the aggregate Exercise Price for the number of shares of Stock for which the Option is being
exercised shall be made (i) in cash, by check or in cash equivalent; (ii) if permitted by the Company and subject to the limitations contained in Section 4.3(b), by means of (1) a Cashless Exercise, or (2) a Net-Exercise; or
(iii) by any combination of the foregoing. 
 (b)  Limitations on Forms of Consideration. The
Company reserves, at any and all times, the right, in the Company’s sole and absolute discretion, to establish, decline to approve or terminate any program or procedure providing for payment of the Exercise Price through any of the means
described below, including with respect to the Participant notwithstanding that such program or procedures may be available to others. 
 (i)  Cashless Exercise. A “Cashless Exercise” means the delivery of a properly executed Exercise Notice together with irrevocable instructions to a broker in a
form acceptable to the Company providing for the assignment to the Company of the proceeds of a sale or loan with respect to shares of Stock acquired upon the exercise of the Option in an amount not less than the aggregate Exercise Price for such
shares (including, without limitation, through an exercise complying with the provisions of Regulation T as promulgated from time to time by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System). 

(ii)  Net-Exercise. A “Net-Exercise” means the delivery of a properly executed Exercise Notice
electing a procedure pursuant to which (1) the Company will reduce the number of shares otherwise issuable to the Participant upon the exercise of the Option by the largest whole number of shares having a Fair Market Value that does not exceed
the aggregate Exercise Price for the shares with respect to which the Option is exercised, and (2) the Participant shall pay to the Company in cash the remaining balance of such aggregate Exercise Price not satisfied by such reduction in the
number of whole shares to be issued. Following a Net-Exercise, the number of shares remaining subject to the Option, if any, shall be reduced by the sum of (1) the net number of shares issued to the Participant upon such exercise, and
(2) the number of shares deducted by the Company for payment of the aggregate Exercise Price. 
  

	 	4.4	Tax Withholding. 


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 withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), the Participant acknowledges and agrees that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by
the Participant is and remains the Participant’s responsibility and that the Company and or the Employer (a) make no representations nor undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of this
grant of Options, including the grant, vesting and exercise of Options, delivery of Shares and/or cash related to such Options or the subsequent sale of any Shares acquired pursuant to such Options and (b) do not commit to structure the terms
or any aspect of this grant of Options to reduce or eliminate the Participant’s liability for Tax-Related Items. The Participant shall pay the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be
required to withhold as a result of the Participant’s 







 
participation in the Plan or the Participant’s receipt of Options that cannot be satisfied by the means described below. Further, if the Participant is subject to tax in more than one
jurisdiction, the Participant acknowledges that the Company and/or Employer (or former Employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction. The Company may refuse to deliver the shares
if the Participant fails to comply with the Participant’s obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items. 
 Prior to
the taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, the Participant shall pay, or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company or to the Employer (in their sole discretion) to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, the Participant
authorizes the Company or Employer to withhold all applicable Tax-Related Items legally payable by the Participant by (1) withholding a number of shares otherwise deliverable equal to the Retained Share Amount (as defined below),
(2) withholding from the Participant’s wages or other cash compensation paid by the Company and/or Employer; and/or (3) withholding from proceeds of the sale of shares acquired upon settlement of the Options (e.g. through cashless
exercise), either through a voluntary sale or through a sale arranged by the Company (on the Participant’s behalf pursuant to this authorization), to the extent permitted by the Administrator. The “Retained Share Amount” shall mean a
number of shares equal to the quotient of the minimum statutory tax withholding obligation of the Company triggered by the Options on the relevant date, divided by the Fair Market Value of one share on the relevant date or as otherwise provided in
the Plan. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding a number of shares as described herein, the Participant understands that he or she will be deemed to have been issued the full number of applicable shares, notwithstanding
that a number of shares are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items. 
 Participant acknowledges and
understands that Participant should consult a tax adviser regarding Participant’s tax obligations. 

4.5  Beneficial Ownership of Shares; Certificate Registration. The Participant hereby authorizes the Company, in its
sole discretion, to deposit for the benefit of the Participant with any broker with which the Participant has an account relationship of which the Company has notice any or all shares acquired by the Participant pursuant to the exercise of the
Option. Except as provided by the preceding sentence, a certificate for the shares as to which the Option is exercised shall be registered in the name of the Participant, or, if applicable, in the names of the heirs of the Participant. 

4.6  Restrictions on Grant of the Option and Issuance of Shares. The grant of the Option and the issuance of shares of
Stock upon exercise of the Option shall be subject to compliance with all applicable requirements of United States federal, state and Local Law with respect to such securities. The Option may not be exercised if the issuance of shares of Stock upon
exercise would constitute a violation of any applicable United States federal, state or non-U.S. securities laws, or other law or regulations or the requirements of any stock exchange or market system upon which the Stock may then be listed. In
addition, the Option may not be exercised unless (i) a registration statement under the Securities Act shall at the time of exercise of the Option be in effect with respect to the shares issuable upon exercise of the Option or (ii) in the
opinion of legal counsel to the Company, the shares issuable upon exercise of the Option may be issued in accordance with the terms of an applicable exemption from the registration 







 
requirements of the Securities Act. THE PARTICIPANT IS CAUTIONED THAT THE OPTION MAY NOT BE EXERCISED UNLESS THE FOREGOING CONDITIONS ARE SATISFIED. ACCORDINGLY, THE PARTICIPANT MAY NOT BE ABLE
TO EXERCISE THE OPTION WHEN DESIRED EVEN THOUGH THE OPTION IS VESTED. The inability of the Company to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority, if any, or the impracticality of doing so, deemed by the Company’s legal
counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any shares subject to the Option shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been
obtained. As a condition to the exercise of the Option, the Company may require the Participant to satisfy any qualifications that may be necessary or appropriate, to evidence compliance with any applicable law or regulation and to make any
representation or warranty with respect thereto as may be requested by the Company. 
 4.7  Fractional Shares.
The Company shall not be required to issue fractional shares upon the exercise of the Option. 
  

	 	5.	NONTRANSFERABILITY OF THE OPTION. 


During the lifetime of the Participant, the Option shall be exercisable only by the Participant or the Participant’s guardian or
legal representative. The Option shall not be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, exchange, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, or garnishment by creditors of the Participant or the Participant’s beneficiary, except
transfer by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. Following the death of the Participant, the Option, to the extent provided in Section 7, may be exercised by the Participant’s legal representative or by any person empowered to
do so under the deceased Participant’s will or under the then applicable laws of descent and distribution. 
  

	 	6.	TERMINATION OF THE OPTION. 


The Option shall terminate and may no longer be exercised after the first to occur of (a) the close of business on the Option
Expiration Date, (b) the close of business on the last date for exercising the Option following termination of the Participant’s Service as described in Section 7, or (c) a Change in Control to the extent provided in
Section 8. 
  

	 	7.	EFFECT OF TERMINATION OF SERVICE. 


7.1  Option Exercisability. The Option shall terminate immediately upon the Participant’s termination of Service
to the extent that it is then unvested and shall be exercisable after the Participant’s termination of Service to the extent it is then vested only during the applicable time period as determined below and thereafter shall terminate.

 (a)  Disability. If the Participant’s Service terminates because of the Disability of the
Participant, the Option, to the extent unexercised and exercisable for Vested Shares on the date on which the Participant’s Service terminated, may be exercised by the Participant (or the Participant’s guardian or legal representative) at
any time prior to the expiration of twelve (12) months after the date on which the Participant’s Service terminated, but in any event no later than the Option Expiration Date. 







 (b)  Death. If the Participant’s Service terminates because of
the death of the Participant, the Option, to the extent unexercised and exercisable for Vested Shares on the date on which the Participant’s Service terminated, may be exercised by the Participant’s legal representative or other person who
acquired the right to exercise the Option by reason of the Participant’s death at any time prior to the expiration of twelve (12) months after the date on which the Participant’s Service terminated, but in any event no later than the
Option Expiration Date. The Participant’s Service shall be deemed to have terminated on account of death if the Participant dies within three (3) months after the Participant’s termination of Service. 

(c)  Termination for Cause. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Option Agreement to the contrary, if the
Participant’s Service is terminated for Cause or if, following the Participant’s termination of Service and during any period in which the Option otherwise would remain exercisable, the Participant engages in any act that would constitute
Cause, the Option shall terminate in its entirety and cease to be exercisable immediately upon such termination of Service or act. 
 (d)  Other Termination of Service. If the Participant’s Service terminates for any reason, except Disability, death or Cause, the Option, to the extent unexercised and
exercisable for Vested Shares by the Participant on the date on which the Participant’s Service terminated, may be exercised by the Participant at any time prior to the expiration of three (3) months after the date on which the
Participant’s Service terminated, but in any event no later than the Option Expiration Date. 

7.2  Extension if Exercise Prevented by Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, other than termination of the
Participant’s Service for Cause, if the exercise of the Option within the applicable time periods set forth in Section 7.1 is prevented by the provisions of Section 4.6, the Option shall remain exercisable until the later of
(a) thirty (30) days after the date such exercise first would no longer be prevented by such provisions, or (b) the end of the applicable time period under Section 7.1, but in any event no later than the Option Expiration Date.

  

	 	8.	EFFECT OF CHANGE IN CONTROL.


 In the event of a Change in Control, except to the extent that the Committee determines to cash out the Option
in accordance with Section 13.1(c) of the Plan, the surviving, continuing, successor, or purchasing entity or parent thereof, as the case may be (the “Acquiror”), may, without the consent of the Participant, assume or
continue in full force and effect the Company’s rights and obligations under all or any portion of the Option or substitute for all or any portion of the Option a substantially equivalent option for the Acquiror’s stock. For purposes of
this Section, the Option or any portion thereof shall be deemed assumed if, following the Change in Control, the Option confers the right to receive, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Option Agreement, for each share of Stock
subject to such portion of the Option immediately prior to the Change in Control, the consideration (whether stock, cash, other securities or property or a combination thereof) to which a holder of a share of Stock on the effective date of the
Change in Control was entitled (and if holders were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Stock); provided, however, that if such consideration is not solely
common stock of the Acquiror, the Committee may, with the consent of the Acquiror, provide for the consideration to 







 
be received upon the exercise of the Option, for each share of Stock subject to the Option, to consist solely of common stock of the Acquiror equal in Fair Market Value to the per share
consideration received by holders of Stock pursuant to the Change in Control. The Option shall terminate and cease to be outstanding effective as of the time of consummation of the Change in Control to the extent that the Option is neither assumed
or continued by the Acquiror in connection with the Change in Control nor exercised as of the time of the Change in Control. 
  

	 	9.	ADJUSTMENTS FOR CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE.


 Subject to any required action by the stockholders of the Company, in the event of any change in the Stock
effected without receipt of consideration by the Company, whether through merger, consolidation, reorganization, reincorporation, recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, split-up, split-off, spin-off,
combination of shares, exchange of shares, or similar change in the capital structure of the Company, or in the event of payment of a dividend or distribution to the stockholders of the Company in a form other than Stock (excepting normal cash
dividends) that has a material effect on the Fair Market Value of shares of Stock, appropriate and proportionate adjustments shall be made in the number, Exercise Price and kind of shares subject to the Option, in order to prevent dilution or
enlargement of the Participant’s rights under the Option. For purposes of the foregoing, conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be treated as “effected without receipt of consideration by the Company.” Any
fractional share resulting from an adjustment pursuant to this Section shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number and the Exercise Price shall be rounded up to the nearest whole cent. In no event may the Exercise Price be decreased to an
amount less than the par value, if any, of the stock subject to the Option. Such adjustments shall be determined by the Committee, and its determination shall be final, binding and conclusive. 

 

	 	10.	RIGHTS AS A STOCKHOLDER, DIRECTOR, EMPLOYEE OR
CONSULTANT. 

 The Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any
shares covered by the Option until the date of the issuance of the shares for which the Option has been exercised (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company). No
adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date the shares are issued, except as provided in Section 9. If the Participant is an Employee, the Participant understands and
acknowledges that, except as otherwise provided in a separate, written employment agreement between a Participating Company and the Participant, the Participant’s employment is “at will” and is for no specified term unless otherwise
required under applicable law. Nothing in this Option Agreement shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue in the Service of a Participating Company or interfere in any way with any right of the Participating Company Group to terminate
the Participant’s Service as a Director, an Employee or Consultant, as the case may be, at any time. 
  

	 	11.	LEGENDS. 

 The Company may at any time place legends referencing any applicable United States federal, state or non-U.S. securities law, including Local Law, restrictions on all








 
certificates representing shares of stock subject to the provisions of this Option Agreement. The Participant shall, at the request of the Company, promptly present to the Company any and all
certificates representing shares acquired pursuant to the Option in the possession of the Participant in order to carry out the provisions of this Section. 
  

	 	12.	MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS. 

 12.1  Termination or Amendment. The Committee may terminate or amend the Plan or the Option at any time; provided, however, that except as provided in Section 8 in connection with a
Change in Control, no such termination or amendment may adversely affect the Option or any unexercised portion hereof without the consent of the Participant unless such termination or amendment is necessary to comply with any applicable law or
government regulation. No amendment or addition to this Option Agreement shall be effective unless in writing. 

12.2  Further Instruments. The parties hereto agree to execute such further instruments and to take such further action
as may reasonably be necessary to carry out the intent of this Option Agreement. 
 12.3  Binding Effect. This
Option Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Company and, subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth herein, be binding upon the Participant and the Participant’s heirs, executors, administrators,
successors and assigns. 
 12.4  Delivery of Documents and Notices. Any document relating to participation in
the Plan or any notice required or permitted hereunder shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given (except to the extent that this Option Agreement provides for effectiveness only upon actual receipt of such notice) upon personal
delivery, electronic delivery at the e-mail address, if any, provided for the Participant by a Participating Company, or upon deposit in the U.S. Post Office or non-U.S. postal service, by registered or certified mail, or with a nationally
recognized overnight courier service, with postage and fees prepaid, addressed to the other party at the address of such party set forth in the Grant Notice or at such other address as such party may designate in writing from time to time to the
other party. 
 (a)  Description of Electronic Delivery. The Plan documents, which may include
but do not necessarily include: the Plan, the Grant Notice, this Option Agreement, the Plan Prospectus, and any reports of the Company provided generally to the Company’s stockholders, may be delivered to the Participant electronically. In
addition, if permitted by the Company, the Participant may deliver electronically the Grant Notice and Exercise Notice called for by Section 4.2 to the Company or to such third party involved in administering the Plan as the Company may
designate from time to time. Such means of electronic delivery may include but do not necessarily include the delivery of a link to a Company intranet or the Internet site of a third party involved in administering the Plan, the delivery of the
document via e-mail or such other means of electronic delivery specified by the Company. 
 (b)  Consent to
Electronic Delivery. The Participant acknowledges that the Participant has read Section 12.4(a) of this Option Agreement and consents to the electronic 







 
delivery of the Plan documents and, if permitted by the Company, the delivery of the Grant Notice and Exercise Notice, as described in Section 12.4(a). The Participant acknowledges that he
or she may receive from the Company a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically at no cost to the Participant by contacting the Company by telephone or in writing. The Participant further acknowledges that the Participant will be provided
with a paper copy of any documents if the attempted electronic delivery of such documents fails. Similarly, the Participant understands that the Participant must provide the Company or any designated third party administrator with a paper copy of
any documents if the attempted electronic delivery of such documents fails. The Participant may revoke his or her consent to the electronic delivery of documents described in Section 12.4(a) or may change the electronic mail address to which
such documents are to be delivered (if Participant has provided an electronic mail address) at any time by notifying the Company of such revoked consent or revised e-mail address by telephone, postal service or electronic mail. Finally, the
Participant understands that he or she is not required to consent to electronic delivery of documents described in Section 12.4(a). 
 12.5 Integrated Agreement. The Grant Notice, this Option Agreement and the Plan shall constitute the entire understanding and agreement of the Participant and the Participating Company Group with
respect to the subject matter contained herein and supersede any prior agreements, understandings, restrictions, representations, or warranties among the Participant and the Participating Company Group with respect to such subject matter. To the
extent contemplated herein, the provisions of the Grant Notice, the Option Agreement and the Plan shall survive any exercise of the Option and shall remain in full force and effect. 

12.6 Country-Specific Terms and Conditions. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Option Agreement to the contrary, the
Option shall be subject to the specific terms and conditions, if any, set forth in the Appendix to this Option Agreement which are applicable to the Participant’s country of residence, the provisions of which are incorporated in and constitute
part of this Option Agreement. Moreover, if the Participant relocates to one of the countries included in the Appendix, the specific terms and conditions applicable to such country will apply to the Option to the extent the Company determines that
the application of such terms and conditions is necessary or advisable in order to comply with local law or facilitate the administration of the Plan or this Option Agreement. 

12.7 Applicable Law. Except as provided pursuant to Section 12.6, this Option Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the
State of California as such laws are applied to agreements between California residents entered into and to be performed entirely within the State of California. For purposes of litigating any dispute that arises directly or indirectly from the
relationship of the parties as evidenced by this Option Agreement, the parties hereby submit to and consent to the jurisdiction of the State of California and agree that such litigation shall be conducted only in the courts of the County of Santa
Clara, California, or the federal courts of the United States for the Northern District of California, and no other courts, where this Option Agreement is made and/or performed. 

12.8 Counterparts. The Grant Notice may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which
together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

often complex and change frequently. As a result, the Company strongly recommends that you not rely on the information in this Appendix as the only source of information relating to the consequences of participation in the Plan because such
information may be out-of-date when Participant’s Options vest and/or Participant sells any shares acquired under the Plan. 
 In addition,
the information contained herein is general in nature and may not apply to Participant’s particular situation. As a result, the Company is not in a position to assure Participant of any particular result. Participant is therefore advised to
seek appropriate professional advice as to how the relevant laws in Participant’s country may apply to Participant’s situation. 

Finally, if Participant is a citizen or resident of a country other than that in which Participant is currently working, the information contained herein
may not apply to Participant.
