**Condensed Notes to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)**

**(1) Organization and Consolidation**

Deere & Company has been developing innovative solutions to help its customers become more profitable for more than 185 years. References to "Deere & Company," "John Deere," "Deere," "we," "us," or "our" include our consolidated subsidiaries, unless otherwise stated. We manage our business through the following operating segments: Production & Precision Agriculture (PPA), Small Agriculture & Turf (SAT), Construction & Forestry (CF), and Financial Services (John Deere Financial or FS). References to "equipment operations" include PPA, SAT, and CF, while references to "agriculture and turf" include both PPA and SAT.

We use a 52/53 week fiscal year with quarters ending on the last Sunday in the reporting period. The first quarter ends for fiscal years 2026 and 2025 were February 1, 2026, and January 26, 2025, respectively. Both periods contained 13 weeks. Fiscal year 2025 contained 53 weeks, with the additional week occurring in the fourth quarter. Unless otherwise stated, references to particular years, quarters, or months refer to our fiscal years generally ending near the end of October and the associated periods in those fiscal years.

All amounts are presented in millions of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise specified. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.

**Variable Interest Entities**

We consolidate certain variable interest entities (VIEs) related to retail note securitizations (see Note 10).

We have a 50% ownership interest in Banco John Deere S.A. (BJD), an equity method investment that finances retail and wholesale loans for agricultural, construction, and forestry equipment in Brazil. This investment was established in February 2025 through the sale of 50% ownership of a former subsidiary (see Note 21). BJD is a VIE as we provide funding and are exposed to losses that are disproportionate to our voting rights. However, we are not the primary beneficiary of the VIE because the power over significant activities, including the strategic plan, budget, credit policies, and funding guidelines, is shared among equity holders through an equally represented board of directors.

Financial results of BJD are reported in "Equity in income (loss) of unconsolidated affiliates." The related investment in unconsolidated affiliates is included in "Other assets" on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, while short-term and long-term funding is recorded in receivables from unconsolidated affiliates and included in "Other receivables."

Our carrying value of receivables from and investments in BJD and maximum exposure to loss were as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | February 1<br>2026 | November 2<br>2025 |
| Receivables from unconsolidated affiliates – "Other receivables" | $306  | $394 |
| Investments in unconsolidated affiliates – "Other assets" | 389  | 405 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Carrying value of assets related to VIE | 695  | 799  |
| Guarantees | 164  | 157 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Maximum exposure to loss | $859  | $956  |

---

Guarantees primarily include BJD debt related to government funding that existed prior to the deconsolidation of BJD. We did not record a contractual liability related to these guarantees on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

**(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and New Accounting Pronouncements**

**Quarterly Financial Statements**

The interim consolidated financial statements of Deere & Company have been prepared by us, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. have been condensed or omitted as permitted by such rules and regulations. All normal recurring adjustments have been included. Management believes the disclosures are adequate to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows at the dates and for the periods presented. It is suggested these interim consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto appearing in our latest Annual Report on Form 10-K. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of those to be expected for the fiscal year.

**Use of Estimates in Financial Statements**

Certain accounting policies require management to make estimates and assumptions in determining the amounts reflected in the financial statements and related disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

**Accounting Pronouncements to be Adopted**

We closely monitor all Accounting Standard Updates (ASUs) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and other authoritative guidance.

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-10, Government Grants (Topic 832): Accounting for Government Grants Received by Business Entities, which provides updated guidance on how to recognize, measure, and present government grants. The ASU will be effective for us beginning with our interim reporting for fiscal year 2030, with early adoption permitted. We are assessing the effect of this update on our consolidated financial statements.

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software, which provides updated guidance for the capitalization of internal-use software. The ASU will be effective for us beginning with our interim reporting for fiscal year 2029, with early adoption permitted. We are assessing the effect of this update on our consolidated financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which expands disclosures about specific expense categories presented on the face of the income statement. In January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40), which clarifies the effective date of ASU 2024-03. The ASU will be effective for us beginning with our annual reporting for fiscal year 2028 and interim periods thereafter. We are assessing the effect of ASU 2024-03 on our related disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which expands disclosures in an entity's income tax rate reconciliation table and cash taxes paid both in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions. The ASU will be effective for us beginning with our annual reporting for fiscal year 2026. We are assessing the effect of this update on our related disclosures. The adoption will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

We will also adopt the following standards in future periods, none of which are expected to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements. All other accounting standards issued but not yet adopted were not applicable to us.

We invoice in advance of recognizing the revenue of certain products and services. These relate to extended warranty premiums, advance payments for future equipment sales, and subscription and service revenue related to precision guidance, telematic services, and other information enabled solutions. These advanced customer payments are presented as deferred revenue, a contract liability, in "Accounts payable and accrued expenses." The deferred revenue received, but not recognized in revenue, was $2,121, $2,039, and $2,027 at February 1, 2026, November 2, 2025, and January 26, 2025, respectively. The contract liability is reduced as the revenue is recognized. Revenue recognized from deferred revenue that was recorded as a contract liability at the beginning of the fiscal year was $265 and $197 during the three months ended February 1, 2026, and January 26, 2025, respectively.

The amount of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original duration greater than one year was $1,811 at February 1, 2026. The estimated revenue to be recognized by fiscal year follows: remainder of 2026 – $465, 2027 – $529, 2028 – $351, 2029 – $213, 2030 – $127, 2031 – $77, and later years – $49. As permitted, we elected only to disclose remaining performance obligations with an original contract duration greater than one year. The contracts with an expected duration of one year or less are for sales to dealers and retail customers for equipment, service parts, repair services, and certain telematics services.

**(7) INCOME TAXES**

The effective tax rate for the three months ended February 1, 2026, and January 26, 2025, was 23.4% and 3.0%, respectively. The effective tax rate in the first quarter of 2025 was impacted by favorable net discrete tax items (see Note 21).

**(8) SEGMENT DATA**

Our operations are organized and reported in four business segments: Production & Precision Agriculture, Small Agriculture & Turf, Construction & Forestry, and Financial Services. This presentation is consistent with how the chief operating decision maker, our Chief Executive Officer (CEO), who also serves as the Chairman of the Board, assesses the performance of the segments and makes decisions regarding resource allocations. Each segment has a group president responsible for managing financial performance and executing strategic initiatives.

● *Production & Precision Agriculture – PPA* segment defines, develops, and delivers global equipment and technology solutions to unlock customer value for production-scale growers of large grains, small grains, cotton, and sugarcane.

● *Small Agriculture & Turf – SAT* segment defines, develops, and delivers global equipment and technology solutions to unlock customer value for dairy and livestock producers, high-value and small acreage crop producers, and turf and utility customers.

● *Construction & Forestry – CF* segment defines, develops, and delivers a broad range of machines and technology solutions organized along the earthmoving, forestry, and roadbuilding production systems.

The products and services produced by the segments above are primarily marketed through independent retail dealer networks and major retail outlets. For roadbuilding products in certain markets outside the U.S. and Canada, the products are sold through company-owned sales and service subsidiaries.

● *Financial Services – FS* segment finances sales and leases by John Deere dealers of new and used production and precision agriculture equipment, small agriculture and turf equipment, and construction and forestry equipment. In addition, the FS segment provides wholesale financing to dealers of the foregoing equipment, finances retail revolving charge accounts, and offers extended equipment warranties.

The CEO evaluates the performance of the business segments based on operating profit, which for FS includes interest income and interest expense, and on identifiable segment operating assets. Segment operating profit and operating assets are measured using accounting policies consistent with those applied in the consolidated financial statements. Because of integrated manufacturing operations and common administrative and marketing support, a substantial number of allocations must be

made to determine operating segment data. Intersegment transactions are primarily made between the FS segment and PPA, SAT, and CF segments, and are recognized at current market prices.

Total identifiable assets assigned to the equipment operations operating segments are those the segments actively manage, consisting of trade receivables, inventories, property and equipment, intangible assets, and certain other assets. Corporate assets are managed on a consolidated basis, including cash and cash equivalents, retirement benefit net assets, goodwill, and deferred income tax assets. Financial Services assets include cash and cash equivalents, retirement benefits, and deferred income tax assets that are managed by the segment.

**(9) Financing Receivables**

We monitor the credit quality of financing receivables based on delinquency status, defined as follows:

● Past due balances represent any payments 30 days or more past the due date.

● Non-performing financing receivables represent receivables for which we have stopped accruing finance income. This generally occurs when receivables are 90 days delinquent.

● Write-offs generally occur when receivables are 120 days delinquent. In these situations, the estimated uncollectible amount is written off to the allowance for credit losses.

The credit quality and aging analysis of retail notes, financing leases, and revolving charge accounts (collectively, retail customer receivables) by year of origination was as follows:

The allowance for credit losses on retail notes and financing lease receivables decreased in the first quarter of 2026, primarily due to a decline in the balance of financing receivables.

**Modifications**

We occasionally grant contractual modifications to customers experiencing financial difficulties. Before offering a modification, we evaluate the ability of the customer to meet the modified payment terms. Finance charges continue to accrue during the deferral or extension period except for modifications related to bankruptcy proceedings. Our allowance for credit losses incorporates historical loss information, including the effects of loan modifications with customers. Therefore, additional adjustments to the allowance are generally not recorded upon modification of a loan.

The ending amortized cost of financing receivables modified with borrowers experiencing financial difficulty was as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | Three Months Ended  | Three Months Ended  |
|  | February 1<br>2026 | January 26<br>2025 |
| Modified financing receivables | $64  | $28  |
| Percent of financing receivables portfolio | 0.13% | 0.06% |

---

Modifications offered include payment deferrals, term extensions, or a combination thereof. The weighted-average effects for contract modifications were as follows in months:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | Three Months Ended  | Three Months Ended  |
|  | February 1<br>2026 | January 26<br>2025 |
| Payment deferral | 7  | 8  |
| Term extension | 12  | 12  |
| Combination modifications |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Payment deferral | 10  | 4  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Term extension | 20  | 6  |

---

We continue to monitor the performance of financing receivables that are modified with borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. The ending amortized cost and performance of financing receivables modified during the prior twelve months ended February 1, 2026, and January 26, 2025, were as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | February 1<br>2026 | January 26<br>2025 |
| Current | $169  | $74  |
| 30-59 days past due | 13  | 7  |
| 60-89 days past due | 8  | 4  |
| 90+ days past due |  | 3  |
| Non-performing | 18  | 13  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Total | $208  | $101  |

---

Defaults and subsequent write-offs of loans modified in the prior twelve months were not significant during the three months ended February 1, 2026, and January 26, 2025. At February 1, 2026, commitments to provide additional financing to these customers were not significant.

**(10) Securitization of Financing Receivables**

Our funding strategy includes receivable securitizations, which allows us to receive cash for financing receivables immediately. While these securitization programs are administered in various forms, they are accomplished in the following basic steps:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. We transfer financing receivables into a bankruptcy-remote special purpose entity (SPE).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. The SPE issues debt to investors. The debt is secured by the financing receivables.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. Investors are paid back based on cash receipts from the financing receivables.

As part of step 1, these receivables are legally isolated from the claims of our general creditors. This ensures cash receipts from the financing receivables are accessible to pay back securitization program investors. The structure of these transactions does not meet the accounting criteria for a sale of receivables. As a result, they are accounted for as secured borrowings. The receivables and borrowings remain on our balance sheet and are separately reported as "Financing receivables securitized – net" and "Short-term securitization borrowings," respectively. SPEs are consolidated as VIEs when we have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the SPEs' economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the SPEs.

The components of securitization programs were as follows:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | February 1<br>2026 | November 2<br>2025 | January 26<br>2025 |
| Financing receivables securitized (retail notes) | $6518  | $6872  | $8307  |
| Allowance for credit losses | (39) | (41) | (50) |
| Other assets (primarily restricted cash) | 168  | 171  | 182  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Total restricted securitized assets | $6647  | $7002  | $8439  |
| Short-term securitization borrowings | $6283  | $6596  | $8014  |
| Accrued interest on borrowings | 13  | 15  | 11  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Total liabilities related to restricted securitized assets | $6296  | $6611  | $8025  |

---

**(11) Inventories**

A majority of inventories owned by us are valued at cost on the "last-in, first-out" (LIFO) basis. If all inventories valued on a LIFO basis had been valued on a "first-in, first-out" (FIFO) basis, the estimated inventories by major classification would have been as follows:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | February 1<br>2026 | November 2<br>2025 | January 26<br>2025 |
| Raw materials and supplies | $3738  | $3402  | $3549  |
| Work-in-process | 1106  | 956  | 1046  |
| Finished goods and parts | 6351  | 5769  | 6055  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Total FIFO value | 11195  | 10127  | 10650  |
| Excess of FIFO over LIFO | 2909  | 2721  | 2906  |
| **Inventories** | $8286  | $7406  | $7744  |

---

The amortization expense of other intangible assets in the first quarter of 2026 and 2025 was $34 and $41, respectively. The estimated amortization expense for the next five years is as follows: remainder of 2026 – $109, 2027 – $136, 2028 – $99, 2029 – $82, 2030 – $74, and 2031 – $72.

\* Includes fair value hedge adjustments related to derivatives.

The 4.15% notes due 2030 listed above were issued on October 9, 2025, by Deere Funding Canada Corporation (DFCC), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary. These notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by Deere & Company and, therefore, rank equally with all our outstanding notes and debentures. DFCC financial results were not material to our condensed consolidated financial statements or results of operations, and as a result, we have elected to exclude summarized financial information.

Medium-term notes due through 2034 are primarily offered by prospectus and issued at fixed and variable rates. All outstanding notes and debentures are senior unsecured borrowings and rank equally with each other.

The principal balances of the 4.15% notes due 2030 and medium-term notes were as follows:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | February 1<br>2026 | November 2<br>2025 | January 26<br>2025 |

**(17) Commitments and Contingencies**

A standard warranty is provided as assurance that the equipment will function as intended. The standard warranty period varies by product and region. At the time a sale is recognized, we record an estimate of future warranty costs based on historical claims rate experience and estimated population under warranty.

The reconciliation of the changes in the warranty liability follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | Three Months Ended  | Three Months Ended  |
|  | February 1<br>2026 | January 26<br>2025 |
| Beginning of period balance | $1259  | $1426  |
| Warranty claims paid | (299) | (310) |
| New product warranty accruals | 342  | 256  |
| Foreign exchange | 9  | (12) |
| End of period balance | $1311  | $1360  |

The costs for extended warranty programs are recognized as incurred.

In certain international markets, we provide guarantees to banks for the retail financing of John Deere equipment. As of February 1, 2026, the notional value of these guarantees was $141. We may repossess the equipment collateralizing the receivables. At February 1, 2026, the accrued losses under these guarantees were not material. We also had guarantees to a VIE (see Note 1) totaling $164 at February 1, 2026.

We also had other miscellaneous contingent liabilities and guarantees totaling approximately $105 at February 1, 2026. The accrued liability for these contingencies was $25 at February 1, 2026.

At February 1, 2026, we had commitments of approximately $430 for the construction and acquisition of property and equipment. Also, at February 1, 2026, we had restricted assets of $342, classified as "Other assets," which includes restricted cash primarily related to securitization of financing receivables (see Note 10) and cash that is legally restricted as to withdrawal or usage.

We are subject to various unresolved legal actions. The total accrued losses on unresolved legal matters were approximately $175 at February 1, 2026. The accrual includes estimated total accrued losses on unresolved legal matters in connection with a consolidated multidistrict class action antitrust lawsuit, which was recorded in the fourth quarter of 2025. The accrual is based on management's best estimate of probable losses as the outcome of litigation is inherently uncertain. We believe the reasonably possible range of losses in excess of the recorded accruals for these unresolved legal actions would not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements. The most prevalent legal claims relate to antitrust matters (including class action litigation), product liability (including asbestos-related liability), employment, patent, and trademark.

**(18) Fair Value Measurements**

The fair values of financial instruments that do not approximate the carrying values are presented in the table below. Long-term borrowings exclude finance lease liabilities.

|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | February 1, 2026 | February 1, 2026 | November 2, 2025 | November 2, 2025 | January 26, 2025 | January 26, 2025 |
|  | Carrying<br>Value | Fair<br>Value | Carrying<br>Value | Fair<br>Value | Carrying<br>Value | Fair<br>Value |
| Financing receivables – net | $42113  | $42266  | $44575  | $44779  | $41396  | $41311  |
| Financing receivables securitized – net | 6479  | 6494  | 6831  | 6855  | 8257  | 8174  |
| Receivables from unconsolidated affiliates | 306  | 306  | 392  | 400  |  |  |
| Short-term securitization borrowings | 6283  | 6322  | 6596  | 6631  | 8014  | 8036  |
| Long-term borrowings due within one year | 9342  | 9390  | 8888  | 8911  | 9517  | 9468  |
| Long-term borrowings | 41730  | 41721  | 43471  | 43527  | 43483  | 43172  |

---

Fair value measurements above were Level 3 for all receivables and Level 2 for all borrowings.

Fair values of the financing receivables and receivables from unconsolidated affiliates that were issued long-term were based on the discounted values of their related cash flows at interest rates currently being offered by us for similar financing receivables or at current market interest rates. The fair values of the remaining financing receivables approximated the carrying amounts. At November 2, 2025, we also had $60 marketable securities classified as held-to-maturity Level 2 international corporate debt securities that matured in the first quarter of 2026. We record held-to-maturity marketable securities at amortized cost, which approximates fair value.

Fair values of long-term borrowings and short-term securitization borrowings were based on current market quotes for identical or similar borrowings and credit risk, or on the discounted values of their related cash flows at current market interest

rates. Certain long-term borrowings have been swapped to current variable interest rates. The carrying values of these long-term borrowings include adjustments related to fair value hedges.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, excluding our cash equivalents, which were carried at a cost that approximates fair value and consist of money market funds and time deposits, and excluding our held-to-maturity debt securities, are as follows:

---

<sup>1</sup> Related to assessments of our external overseas battery operations performed in the third quarter of 2025.

<sup>2</sup> The gain on "Assets held for sale" recorded in the first quarter of 2025 represents a reversal of prior period valuation allowance loss, not in excess of cumulative valuation allowance recorded on "Assets held for sale."

The following is a description of the valuation methodologies we use to measure certain financial instruments on the balance sheets at fair value:

Marketable securities *–* The portfolio of investments is valued on a market approach (matrix pricing model) in which all significant inputs are observable or can be derived from or corroborated by observable market data such as interest rates, yield

curves, volatilities, credit risk, and prepayment speeds. Funds are valued using the fund's net asset value, based on the fair value of the underlying securities.

Derivatives *–* Our derivative financial instruments consist of interest rate contracts (swaps), foreign currency exchange contracts (futures, forwards, and swaps), and cross-currency interest rate contracts (swaps). The portfolio is valued based on an income approach (discounted cash flow) using market observable inputs, including swap curves and both forward and spot exchange rates for currencies.

Deferred consideration – The total purchase price consideration for three former Deere-Hitachi joint venture factories acquired in 2022 included supply agreement price increases beyond inflation adjustments. This deferred consideration will be paid as we purchase Deere-branded excavators, components, and service parts from Hitachi under the agreement with a duration that ranges from 5 to 30 years after the acquisition date. The deferred consideration balance is reduced as purchases are made and valued on a discounted cash flow approach using market rates.

Property and equipment – net – The valuations were based on the cost approach. The inputs include reproduction cost estimates adjusted for physical deterioration and functional obsolescence.

Other intangible assets – net – The impairment of customer relationships and trade name of our external overseas battery operations was measured using an income approach.

Other assets (Investments in unconsolidated affiliates) – Other than temporary impairments of investments are measured as the difference between the implied fair value and the carrying value of the investments. The estimated fair value for privately held entities is determined by an income approach (discounted cash flows), which includes inputs such as interest rates and margins.

Assets held for sale – The disposal group was measured at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Fair value was based on the probable sale price. The inputs included estimates of the final sale price (see Note 21). The gain recorded in 2025 represents a reversal of the prior period valuation allowance, not in excess of the cumulative valuation allowance recorded on "Assets held for sale."

**(19) Derivative Instruments**

Fair values of our derivative instruments and the associated notional amounts are presented below. Assets are recorded in "Other assets," while liabilities are recorded in "Accounts payable and accrued expenses."

Certain of our derivative agreements contain credit support provisions that may require us to post collateral based on the size of the net liability positions and credit ratings. The aggregate fair value of all derivatives with credit-risk-related contingent features that were in a net liability position at February 1, 2026, November 2, 2025, and January 26, 2025, was $361, $356, and $707, respectively. In accordance with the limits established in these agreements, we posted $74, $62, and $436 of cash collateral at February 1, 2026, November 2, 2025, and January 26, 2025, respectively. In addition, we paid $8 of collateral that was outstanding at February 1, 2026, November 2, 2025, and January 26, 2025, to participate in an international futures market to hedge currency exposure, not included in the following table.

Derivatives are recorded without offsetting for netting arrangements or collateral. The impact on the derivative assets and liabilities related to netting arrangements and collateral follows:

**(20) Share-Based AWARDS**

We are authorized to grant shares for equity incentive awards. The outstanding shares authorized were 12.6 million at February 1, 2026. In December 2025, we granted stock options to employees for the purchase of 161 thousand shares of common stock at an exercise price of $468.90 per share and a binomial lattice model fair value of $125.96 per share at the grant date. At February 1, 2026, options for 1.1 million shares were outstanding with a weighted-average exercise price of $353.91 per share.

During the three months ended February 1, 2026, the restricted stock units (RSUs) granted in thousands of shares and the weighted-average grant date fair values, using the closing price of our common stock on the grant date in dollars, follow:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|

**(21) Special Items** 

Discrete Tax Items

In the first quarter of 2025, we recorded favorable net discrete tax items primarily due to tax benefits of $110 related to the realization of foreign net operating losses from the consolidation of certain subsidiaries and $53 from an adjustment to an uncertain tax position of a foreign subsidiary.

Banco John Deere S.A.

In 2024, we entered into an agreement with a Brazilian bank, Banco Bradesco S.A. (Bradesco), for Bradesco to invest and become 50% owner of our wholly-owned subsidiary in Brazil, BJD. BJD is included in our financial services segment and finances retail and wholesale loans for agricultural, construction, and forestry equipment. In February 2025, Bradesco contributed capital equal to our equity investment in BJD. We retained a 50% equity interest in BJD and are reporting the results as an equity investment in unconsolidated affiliates.

The BJD business was reclassified as held for sale in 2024. At January 26, 2025, the valuation allowance on "Assets held for sale" decreased to $65, resulting in a pretax and after-tax gain (reversal of previous losses) of $32 recorded in "Selling, administrative and general expenses" in the three months ended January 26, 2025 and presented in "Impairments and other adjustments" in the statements of consolidated cash flows.

The major classes of the total consolidated assets and liabilities of BJD that were classified as held for sale and liabilities of BJD to other intercompany parties were as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
|  | January 26, 2025 |
| Cash and cash equivalents | $115  |
| Trade accounts and notes receivable – net | 105  |
| Financing receivables – net | 2719  |
| Deferred income taxes | 34  |
| Other miscellaneous assets\* | 21  |
| Valuation allowance | (65) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Assets held for sale** | $2929  |
| Short-term borrowings | $487  |
| Accounts payable and accrued expenses | 124  |
| Long-term borrowings | 1218  |
| Retirement benefits and other liabilities | 1  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Liabilities held for sale** | $1830  |
| Total intercompany payables | $627  |

\*&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Includes $1 restricted cash balance.

(**22) Subsequent Events**

On February 25, 2026, a quarterly dividend of $1.62 per share was declared at the Board of Directors meeting, payable on May 8, 2026, to stockholders of record on March 31, 2026.

On February 18, 2026, we acquired Tenna LLC (Tenna), a U.S. construction technology company that offers mixed-fleet equipment operations and asset tracking solutions. The purchase price, net of cash acquired, was $440. Tenna will be included in the CF operating segment. Due to the recent closing of the acquisition, the formal process necessary to allocate the purchase price to the acquired assets and liabilities has not been completed.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

**RESULTS OF OPERATIONS**

All amounts are presented in millions of U.S. dollars unless otherwise specified.

**OVERVIEW**

**Organization**

Deere & Company is a global leader in the production of agricultural, turf, construction, and forestry equipment and solutions. John Deere Financial provides financing for John Deere equipment, parts, services, and other inputs customers need to run their operations. Our operations are managed through the Production & Precision Agriculture (PPA), Small Agriculture & Turf (SAT), Construction & Forestry (CF), and Financial Services operating segments. References to "equipment operations" include PPA, SAT, and CF, while references to "agriculture and turf" include both PPA and SAT.

*Construction and Forestry*

![Graphic](de-20260201x10q007.jpg)![Graphic](de-20260201x10q008.jpg)

**Company Trends**

Our Leap Ambitions, a set of focused goals designed to guide the implementation of our Smart Industrial Operating Model, feature multi-year financial and operational goals, emphasizing the use of our differentiated equipment and service solutions, including automation, autonomy, digitalization, lifecycle solutions, and Solutions as a Service (SaaS).

Deeper integration of technology into equipment to enable customers to do more with less remains a persistent market trend. Customers seek to improve profitability, productivity, and sustainability by selecting our equipment and technology solutions. These technologies are incorporated into customer operations across the varied production systems in which we serve. While we continue to benefit from the adoption of these technologies, revenue from SaaS products did not represent a significant percentage of our revenues in the periods presented.

**Company Outlook for 2026**

Large agriculture sales in North America are expected to remain subdued and soften in South America resulting in decreased sales volume for PPA in 2026 compared to 2025. SAT and CF sales are expected to improve in 2026. Our net sales are expected to increase in 2026 compared to 2025 with the anticipated decline in PPA sales, more than offset by improvements in CF and SAT.

*Agriculture and Turf Industry Outlook for 2026*

● Demand in the U.S. and Canada for large agriculture equipment is expected to decrease compared to 2025 levels amid challenging farm fundamentals for row crop farmers. These factors are expected to be partially offset by strong crop production, robust demand for commodities, and normalizing global crop trade flows. In addition, government programs continue to support farmers' short-term liquidity. Ongoing improvements in the used inventory market and the increase in age of used equipment are providing a better environment for machine replacement demand.

● We expect small agricultural and turf equipment sales to be flat to up slightly from 2025 levels in the U.S. and Canada. The dairy and livestock market continues to generate profits driven by strong beef prices. A modest recovery is anticipated in the turf sector following several years of contraction.

● In Europe, the industry is forecasted to be flat to up slightly despite recent declines in milk prices, supported by a steady interest rate environment, manageable long-term financing costs, and resilient crop yields.

● Demand in South America is expected to be down slightly driven by the Brazilian market where subdued commodity prices, high interest rates, and a stronger Brazilian real are putting pressure on farmer margins.

● Industry sales in Asia are forecasted to be flat to down slightly.

*Construction and Forestry Industry Outlook for 2026*

● Industry sales in the U.S. and Canada for earthmoving and compact construction equipment are projected to be slightly higher compared to 2025. U.S. government infrastructure spending, declining interest rates, strong rental equipment demand, and data center construction activity continue to provide a solid foundation for the industry.

● Global forestry markets are expected to be flat.

● Global roadbuilding markets are forecasted to be up slightly compared to 2025 driven by market growth in North America and Europe.

**Additional Trends**

*Agricultural Market Business Cycle.* The agricultural market is affected by various factors including commodity prices, acreage planted, crop yields, government policies, and uncertainty in macroeconomic trends. These factors affect farmers' income and sentiment which may result in varying demand for our equipment. In 2026, we may experience the following effects due to unfavorable market conditions: lower sales volumes, higher sales incentives, and elevated receivable write-offs.

*Global Trade Policies.* In 2025, new tariffs were imposed in the U.S. for imports from a broad range of countries and on certain materials. Several countries also implemented retaliatory tariffs on imports from the U.S. and introduced additional trade barriers. Trade policies impact us in various ways. We are a net exporter of agriculture and turf equipment from the U.S. Nearly 75% of our domestic sales are assembled in the U.S., with the remaining products imported primarily from Europe, Mexico, India, and Japan. Incremental import tariffs adversely affected the cost of our products and components beginning in the third quarter of 2025 and are expected to continue to do so in 2026. The direct impact of incremental tariffs incurred by us was $361 in the first quarter of 2026, excluding the impact of tariffs on our suppliers and market demand. Trade policies are evolving, causing uncertainty in the agriculture and construction industries. We are actively taking steps to mitigate potential impacts on our business, to the extent possible.

On February 20, 2026, the United States Supreme Court issued a decision invalidating tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA). This decision may provide tariff relief and the potential recovery of amounts previously paid. We are currently evaluating the impact of this decision on our future financial statements.

Changes in the agricultural market business cycle and global trade policies are driven by factors outside of our control, and as a result, we cannot reasonably foresee when these conditions may subside.

**Legal Proceeding –** On January 15, 2025, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), along with the Attorneys General of the States of Illinois and Minnesota filed a lawsuit against us in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois Western Division. The Attorneys General of the States of Arizona, Michigan, and Wisconsin joined the lawsuit. The lawsuit alleges monopolization and unfair competition in violation of the federal and state antitrust laws. Plaintiffs seek a permanent injunction and other equitable relief to allow owners of our equipment, as well as independent repair providers, access to our repair tools and any other repair resources available to authorized John Deere dealers. We are in preliminary discussions with the FTC with respect to a potential resolution. At this stage, we are unable to estimate the potential impact on our business.

**Other Items of Concern and Uncertainties –** Other items that could impact our results are:

● global and regional political conditions

● shifts in energy, including positions with respect to biofuels, economic, and positions on government subsidies of farming

● capital market disruptions

● foreign currency and capital control policies

● right to repair regulations and legislation

● weather conditions

● marketplace pace of adoption and monetization of technologies we have invested in

● our ability to strengthen our digital capabilities, artificial intelligence, automation, and autonomy

● changes in demand and pricing for new and used equipment

● delays or disruptions in our supply chain

● significant fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates

● volatility in the prices of many commodities

● slower economic growth

---

Net sales and revenues increased 13% for the quarter, primarily due to higher sales volumes of $988 and the positive effects of foreign currency translation of $227. Net income decreased $213, primarily due to incremental tariffs of $272 ($361 pretax) and prior period favorable discrete tax items of $163 described in Note 21, partially offset by the impact of higher shipment volumes of $188 ($249 pretax). The discussion of segment net sales and operating profit is included in the Business Segment Results below.

---

Small Agriculture & Turf sales increased for the quarter due to higher shipment volumes (primarily in the U.S., Canada, Europe, and India) driven by increased customer demand. Sales also increased as a result of the positive impact of the Euro foreign currency translation. Operating profit increased primarily as a result of higher shipment volumes and price realization, partially offset by higher tariffs.

---

Construction & Forestry sales increased for the quarter due to higher U.S. shipment volumes, driven by increased customer demand from a strong construction market. Additionally, sales increased as a result of the positive impacts of the Euro foreign currency translation. Operating profit increased primarily due to higher shipment volumes and production efficiencies, partially offset by higher tariffs.

| Interest expense | 664  | 766  | -13 |
| Net income | 244  | 230  | +6 |

---

Revenue decreased primarily due to the deconsolidation of Banco John Deere S.A. (BJD) in the second quarter of 2025 and a 2% lower average balance of receivables and leases portfolio compared to the same period last year. Interest expense decreased as a result of lower average borrowing rates and lower average borrowings. Net income for the quarter increased primarily due to favorable financing spreads and a lower provision for credit losses, partially offset by the prior period decreased valuation allowance on BJD "Assets held for sale" (see Note 21).

**Critical Accounting Estimates**

See our critical accounting estimates discussed in the Management's Discussion and Analysis of the most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K. There have been no material changes to these policies.

**CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY – 2026 compared with 2025**

We have access to global markets at a reasonable cost. Sources of liquidity include:

● cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities on hand

● funds from operations

● the issuance of commercial paper and term debt

● the securitization of retail notes

● bank lines of credit

We closely monitor our cash requirements. Based on the available sources of liquidity, we expect to meet our funding needs in the short term (next 12 months) and long term (beyond 12 months). We are forecasting operating cash flows from equipment operations in 2026 to remain flat compared with 2025 driven by an offsetting decrease in net income adjusted for non-cash provisions, and higher cash flows generated from inventory reductions.

We operate in multiple industries, which have unique funding requirements. The equipment operations are capital intensive. Historically, these operations have been subject to seasonal variations in financing requirements for inventories and receivables from dealers. The financial services operations rely on their ability to raise substantial amounts of funds to finance their receivable and lease portfolios.

Key metrics are provided in the following table:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | February 1<br>2026 | November 2<br>2025 | January 26<br>2025 |
| Cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities | $8196  | $9687  | $7815  |

There have been no material changes to the contractual obligations and other cash requirements identified in our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K.

**Cash Flows**

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | Three Months Ended  | Three Months Ended  |
|  | February 1<br>2026 | January 26<br>2025 |
| Net cash used for operating activities | $(890) | $(1132) |
| Net cash provided by investing activities | 1822  | 1416  |
| Net cash used for financing activities | (2490) | (923) |
| Effect of exchange rate changes on cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash | 98  | (87) |
| Net decrease in cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash | $(1460) | $(726) |

---

Cash outflows from consolidated operating activities in the first three months of 2026 were $890. This resulted mainly from the payout of employee profit-sharing incentives, an increase in inventories, and a reduction in dealer sales incentive accruals, partially offset by net income adjusted for non-cash provisions. Cash inflows from investing activities were $1,822 in the first three months of this year. The primary drivers were collections of receivables (excluding receivables related to sales) exceeding the cost of receivables acquired, partially offset by purchases of property and equipment. Cash outflows from financing activities were $2,490 in the first three months of 2026 due to lower borrowings, dividends paid, and repurchases of common stock. Cash returned to shareholders was $743 in the first three months of 2026. Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash decreased $1,460 during the first three months of this year.

**Key Metrics and Balance Sheet Changes**

**Trade Accounts and Notes Receivable.** Trade accounts and notes receivable arise from sales of goods to customers. Trade receivables increased $676 during the first three months of 2026, and increased $1,062 compared to a year ago, both due to higher sales. The percentage of total worldwide trade receivables outstanding for periods exceeding 12 months was 2% at February 1, 2026, 3% at November 2, 2025, and 6% at January 26, 2025.

**Financing Receivables and Equipment on Operating Leases.** Financing receivables and equipment on operating leases consist of retail notes originated in connection with financing of new and used equipment, operating leases, revolving charge accounts, sales-type and direct financing leases, and wholesale notes. Financing receivables and equipment on operating leases decreased $2,902 during the first quarter of 2026, primarily due to seasonal payments and lower retail customer receivables, and decreased $706 in the past 12 months due to lower wholesale notes. Total acquisition volumes of financing receivables and equipment on operating leases were 12% higher in the first three months of 2026, compared with the same period last year, as volumes of wholesale notes and revolving charge accounts were higher compared to the same period last year.

**Inventories.** Inventories increased by $880 during the first three months, primarily due to a seasonal increase. Inventories increased $542 compared to a year ago due to the effects of foreign currency translation. A majority of these inventories are valued on the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method.

**Property and Equipment**. Property and equipment cash expenditures in the first three months of 2026 were $256, compared with $352 in the same period last year. Capital expenditures in 2026 are estimated to be approximately $1.4 billion.

**Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses.** Accounts payable and accrued expenses decreased by $1,376 in the first three months of 2026, primarily due to a decrease in accrued expenses associated with employee benefits and dealer sales incentives. Accounts payable and accrued expenses increased $371 compared to a year ago, due to an increase in accounts payable associated with trade payables, partially offset by a decrease in accrued expenses associated with employee benefits.

**Borrowings.** Total external borrowings decreased by $1,457 in the first three months of 2026 and decreased $1,902 compared to a year ago, generally corresponding with the level of the receivable and lease portfolio, as well as other working capital requirements.

John Deere Capital Corporation (Capital Corporation), a U.S. financial services subsidiary, has a revolving warehouse facility to utilize bank conduit facilities to securitize retail notes (see Note 10). The facility was renewed in November 2025, with an expiration in November 2026, and with a total capacity or "financing limit" of $2,500. At February 1, 2026, $2,025 of securitization borrowings were outstanding under the facility. At the end of the contractual revolving period, unless the banks and Capital Corporation agree to renew, Capital Corporation would liquidate the secured borrowings over time as payments on the retail notes are collected.

In the first three months of 2026, the financial services operations issued $659 and retired $974 of retail note securitization borrowings, which are presented in "Net proceeds (payments) in total short-term borrowings (original maturities three months or less)."

**Lines of Credit.** We also have access to bank lines of credit with various banks throughout the world.

Worldwide lines of credit totaled $12.2 billion at February 1, 2026, consisting primarily of:

● a 364-day credit facility agreement of $5.0 billion expiring in the second quarter of 2026

● a credit facility agreement of $3.25 billion expiring in the second quarter of 2028

● a credit facility agreement of $3.25 billion expiring in the second quarter of 2030

At February 1, 2026, $7.2 billion of these worldwide lines of credit were unused. For the purpose of computing unused credit lines, commercial paper and short-term bank borrowings were considered to constitute utilization. These credit agreements require Capital Corporation and other parts of our business to maintain certain performance metrics and liquidity targets. All requirements in the credit agreements have been met during the periods included in the financial statements.

**Debt Ratings**. To access public debt capital markets, we rely on credit rating agencies to assign short-term and long-term credit ratings to our debt securities as an indicator of credit quality for fixed income investors. A security rating is not a recommendation by the rating agency to buy, sell, or hold our securities. A credit rating agency may change or withdraw ratings based on its assessment of our current and future ability to meet interest and principal repayment obligations. Each agency's rating should be evaluated independently of any other rating. Lower credit ratings generally result in higher borrowing costs, including costs of derivative transactions, reduced access to debt capital markets, and may adversely impact our liquidity. The senior long-term and short-term debt ratings and outlook currently assigned to unsecured company securities by the rating agencies engaged by us are as follows:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | Senior<br>Long-Term | <br>Short-Term | <br>Outlook |
| Fitch Ratings | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A+ | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;F1 | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Stable |
| Moody's Investors Service, Inc. | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A1 | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Prime-1 | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Stable |
| Standard & Poor's | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A-1 | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Stable |

There also may be other factors that we cannot anticipate or that are not described herein because we do not currently perceive them to be material.

**SUPPLEMENTAL CONSOLIDATING DATA**

The supplemental consolidating data presented on the subsequent pages is presented for informational purposes. Equipment operations represent the enterprise without Financial Services. Equipment operations include Production & Precision Agriculture operations, Small Agriculture & Turf operations, Construction & Forestry operations, and other corporate assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses not reflected within Financial Services. Transactions between the equipment operations and Financial Services have been eliminated to arrive at the consolidated financial statements.

Equipment operations and Financial Services participate in different industries. Equipment operations primarily generate earnings and cash flows by manufacturing and selling equipment, service parts, and technology solutions to dealers and retail customers. Financial Services finance sales and leases by dealers of new and used equipment that is largely manufactured by equipment operations. Those earnings and cash flows generally are the difference between the finance income received from customer payments less interest expense, and depreciation on equipment subject to an operating lease. The two businesses are capitalized differently and have separate performance metrics. The supplemental consolidating data is also used by management due to these differences.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

See our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K (Part II, Item 7A). There have been no material changes in this information.

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act)) were effective as of February 1, 2026, based on the evaluation of these controls and procedures required by Rule 13a-15(b) or 15d-15(b) of the Exchange Act. During the first quarter of 2026, there were no changes that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

On January 15, 2025, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), along with the Attorneys General of the States of Illinois and Minnesota, filed a lawsuit against us in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois Western Division. The Attorneys General of the States of Arizona, Michigan, and Wisconsin then joined the lawsuit. The lawsuit alleges monopolization and unfair competition in violation of federal and state antitrust laws. Plaintiffs seek a permanent injunction and other equitable relief to allow owners of our equipment, as well as independent repair providers, access to our repair tools and any other repair resources available to authorized John Deere dealers. On March 17, 2025, we filed a motion to dismiss the lawsuit, the FTC filed a response on April 28, 2025, and we filed a reply on May 28, 2025. A hearing was held on the motion to dismiss, and the court denied the motion. We are in preliminary discussions with the FTC with respect to a potential resolution. At this stage, we are unable to predict the outcome or impact of this matter on our business.

In addition to the above, the most prevalent legal claims relate to product liability (including asbestos-related liability), employment, patent, trademark, and antitrust matters (including class action litigation). Currently we believe the reasonably possible range of losses for unresolved legal actions would not have a material effect on our financial statements; however, the outcome of any current or future proceedings, claims, or investigations cannot be predicted with certainty. Adverse decisions in one or more of these proceedings, claims, or investigations could require us to pay substantial damages or fines, undertake service actions, initiate recall campaigns, or take other costly actions. It is therefore possible that legal judgments or investigations could give rise to expenses that are not covered or not fully covered by our insurance programs and could affect our financial position and results.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

See our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K (Part I, Item 1A). The risks described in the Annual Report on Form 10-K, and the "Forward-Looking Statements" in this report, are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties may also materially affect our business, financial condition, or operating results. One should not consider the risk factors to be a complete discussion of risks, uncertainties, and assumptions.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

**Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities**

Purchases of our common stock during the first quarter of 2026 were as follows:

<sup>1</sup> We have a share repurchase plan that was announced in December 2022 to purchase up to $18.0 billion of shares of our common stock. The maximum number of shares that may yet be purchased under this plan was 14.4 million based on the closing price of our common stock on the New York Stock Exchange as of the end of the first quarter of 2026 of $528.00 per share. At the end of the first quarter of 2026, $7.6 billion of common stock remains to be purchased under this plan.

<sup>2</sup> In the first quarter of 2026, 12 thousand shares of common stock were acquired from plan participants at a weighted-average market price of $481.62 per share to pay payroll taxes on the vesting of restricted stock units and to enable stock-for-stock exercises of options.

**Sales of Unregistered Equity Securities**

During the first quarter of 2026, we issued 88 deferred stock units under the Deere & Company Nonemployee Director Stock Ownership Plan ("NEDSOP") to a nonemployee director for their service on our Board of Directors.

**Exhibit 10.1**

#### JOHN DEERE

#### NON-STATUTORY STOCK OPTION <br> Terms and Conditions <br> Granted [____________] (the "Grant Date")
These terms and conditions ("Terms"), evidence a non-statutory stock option granted by Deere & Company (the "Company") to you pursuant and subject to the John Deere 2020 Equity and Incentive Plan (as amended for time to time, the "Plan"), which is incorporated herein by reference. Any capitalized terms that are not otherwise defined in these Terms shall have the meaning assigned to them in the Plan.

Individual awards are determined by the Deere & Company Board of Directors Compensation Committee ("Committee").

These Terms include certain restrictive covenants. If you are a resident of Illinois, you have the right to consult an attorney regarding these Terms. If you are a resident of Texas, you acknowledge that in consideration for your employment with the Company, the financial and other benefits you received from that employment, including the Stock Option (as defined below), and/or access to confidential information and/or trade secrets, you are bound by certain restrictive covenant provisions as outlined in these Terms.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(1)** **Grant**. On the Grant Date, the Company hereby grants to you a non-statutory stock option (the "Stock Option") to purchase, on the terms provided herein and in the Plan, up to the number of shares of Common Stock (the "Shares") and at the Option Price per share of Common Stock set forth in your award letter, in each case subject to the adjustment set forth in section 1.6 of the Plan. The Stock Option shall become vested and exercisable according to section (2).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(2)** **Vesting.** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**A.** **Time-Based Vesting**. Except as set forth in sections (2)B and (2)C, and subject to section (8), the Stock Option shall vest and become exercisable over a three-year period with (i) 34% of the Shares becoming vested and exercisable on the first anniversary of the Grant Date and (ii) 33% of the Shares becoming vested and exercisable on each of the second and third anniversaries of the Grant Date, provided that, in each case, you remain in continuous employment with the Company from the Grant Date until the applicable vesting date. Upon expiration of the Stock Option, the Stock Option shall be cancelled and no longer exercisable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**B.** **Retirement**. In the event of your termination of employment due to Retirement, subject to section (8), the Stock Option shall become vested and exercisable as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.** If your Retirement occurs on or before October 31 of the fiscal year in which the Grant Date occurs (the "Grant Year End"), as to a prorated number of Shares equal to 100% of the Shares subject to the Stock Option multiplied by a percentage determined by dividing (x) the number of calendar months from the Grant Date to the date of your Retirement (including the month of Retirement) by (y) 12.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.** If your Retirement occurs after the Grant Year End, as to 100% of the unvested Shares subject to the Stock Option.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**3.** In each case, such unvested portion of the Stock Option shall become vested and exercisable on the later of (i) the date of your Retirement or (ii) the date that is six months after the Grant Date. Any portion of the Stock Option that does not vest pursuant to this section (2)B shall be automatically forfeited.

For purposes of these Terms, "Retirement" shall have the meaning assigned to such term under the John Deere Pension Plan for Salaried Employees or any successor or similar plan of the Company or its Subsidiaries, or if there is no such plan, Retirement shall be determined by the Company in its sole discretion, subject to compliance with applicable law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**C.** **Death or Disability**. In the event of your termination of employment due to Disability or due to death, subject to section (8), the unvested portion of the Stock Option shall become fully vested and exercisable on the later of (i) the date of termination of employment or (ii) in the event of your Disability, the date that is six months after the Grant Date. For purposes of these Terms,

------

"Disability" shall have the meaning assigned to it under the John Deere Long-Term Disability Plan for Salaried Employees or any successor or similar plan of the Company or its Subsidiaries, or if there is no such plan, Disability shall be determined by the Company in its sole discretion, subject to compliance with applicable law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**D.** **Other Terminations.** Except as provided in sections (2)B and (2)C, and subject to section (6), if you terminate employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries before the Stock Option is fully vested, the unvested portion of the Stock Option held by you at that time shall be automatically forfeited.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**E.** In addition, pursuant to section 8.8 of the Plan, the unvested portion of the Stock Option may be forfeited if you incur a suspension of employment or you are placed on a leave of absence.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(3)** **Expiration.** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**A.**Unless earlier terminated, forfeited, relinquished, or expired, the Stock Option shall expire and no longer be exercisable on the date that is 10 years after the Grant Date (the "Expiration Date").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**B.**The option term specified in section (3)(A) shall terminate (and the Stock Option shall cease to be outstanding) prior to the Expiration Date should any of the following provisions apply:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.** In the event of your termination of employment due to Disability or Retirement, the Stock Option shall expire following the five-year period measured from the date of your termination of employment. In the event of your death prior to the expiration of such five-year period, the Stock Option shall remain exercisable until the later of the last day of (i) the five-year period measured from the date of your termination of employment or (ii) the one-year period measured from the date of your death.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**3.** In the event of your termination of employment for any reason other than death, Disability or Retirement, the Stock Option shall terminate immediately.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(4)** **Calculation.** The Option Price of your Stock Option shall equal the closing price of Company Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange at the conclusion of regular trading hours on the Grant Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(5)** **Expenses.** Commissions, fees, and other expenses connected with the exercise and sale of this Stock Option grant are payable by you. No commissions or fees are charged upon exercise if you purchase and hold the shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(6)** **Change of Control**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**A.** In the event that your employment terminates due to Retirement, Disability, or with the consent of the Committee before the Stock Option is exercised, your right to vest in or exercise any portion of your outstanding Stock Option, if any, is subject to the Restrictive Covenants set forth in Attachment A. If it is determined that you have breached the Restrictive Covenants in Attachment A, your outstanding Stock Option shall automatically be forfeited. Any determination by the Committee that you breached such Restrictive Covenants shall be final, binding and conclusive.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**B.** If you have attained salary grade E3 or above on or after the Grant Date, then, by accepting these Terms, you agree that the Stock Option is subject to and conditioned on the terms of any applicable clawback policies approved by the Board or Committee, as in effect from time to time (including, without limitation, the Company's Executive Incentive Compensation Recoupment Policy, the Incentive Compensation Recovery Policy, or any successor or similar policy), whether approved before or after the Grant Date (as applicable, a "Clawback Policy"). Further, to the extent permitted by applicable law, including without limitation Section 409A of the Code, the Stock Option is subject to offset in the event that you have an outstanding clawback, recoupment or forfeiture obligation to the Company under the terms of any applicable Clawback Policy.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(9)** **No Stockholder Rights.** You will not have any rights of a stockholder with respect to the Shares subject to the Stock Option, including, but not limited to, voting rights, until certificates for Shares have been issued upon the exercise of the Stock Option.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(10)** **Withholding Taxes.** The Company will take such actions as it deems appropriate to ensure that all applicable income taxes, employment taxes, social insurance, national insurance and other contributions, levies, payroll taxes, social security, payment on account obligations or other amounts ("Taxes") required to be collected, withheld or accounted for in connection with the exercise of the Stock Option ("Withholding Taxes") are withheld or collected from you. Upon exercise of the Stock Option, you may elect on the Fidelity administration website at ______________ how Withholding Taxes will be collected.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(11)** **Severability.** If all or any part of these Terms or the Plan is declared by any court or governmental authority to be unlawful or invalid, such unlawfulness or invalidity shall not invalidate any portion of these Terms or the Plan not declared to be unlawful or invalid. Any part of these Terms so declared to be unlawful or invalid shall, if possible, be construed in a manner that will give effect to the terms thereof to the fullest extent possible while remaining lawful and valid. To the extent a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the Restrictive Covenants set forth in Attachment A are overly broad in duration or scope, the parties expressly agree that the court may modify the Restrictive Covenants so as to comply with applicable law.

**Exhibit 10.2**

#### JOHN DEERE RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS <br> TERMS AND CONDITIONS <br> GRANTED [_____________] ("Grant Date")
Deere & Company Restricted Stock Equivalents (also known as Restricted Stock Units) ("RSUs") are granted pursuant to the John Deere 2020 Equity and Incentive Plan ("Plan"). These terms and conditions ("Terms"), together with the Plan, contain the terms of your grant. You should read these Terms carefully. Any capitalized terms that are not otherwise defined in these Terms shall have the meaning assigned to them in the Plan.

RSUs are designed as long-term incentives to encourage ownership and focus on stockholder value.

RSUs are common stock equivalents and represent the right to receive an equivalent number of shares of Deere & Company ("Company") common stock $1 par value per share ("Common Stock") if and when certain vesting and retention requirements, as detailed below, are satisfied.

Individual awards are determined by the Deere & Company Board of Directors Compensation Committee ("Committee").

These Terms include certain restrictive covenants. If you are a resident of Illinois, you have the right to consult an attorney regarding these Terms. If you are a resident of Texas, you acknowledge that in consideration for your employment with the Company, the financial and other benefits you received from that employment, including the RSUs, and/or access to confidential information and/or trade secrets, you are bound by certain restrictive covenant provisions as outlined in these Terms.

Your RSUs are subject to the following provisions:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(1)** **Vesting.** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**A.** **Time-Based Vesting.** Except as provided in sections (1)B and (1)C and subject to your acceptance of these Terms, your RSUs will vest over three years with 34% of the RSUs vesting on the first anniversary of the Grant Date, 33% of the RSUs vesting on the second anniversary of the Grant Date, and 33% of the RSUs vesting on the third anniversary of the Grant Date (each, a "Vesting Date"), subject to your continued employment through the applicable Vesting Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**B.** **Retirement.** In the event of your termination of employment due to Retirement, subject to sections (6) and (7), your RSUs will vest as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.** If your Retirement occurs on or before the October 31 of the fiscal year in which the Grant Date occurs (the "Grant Year End"), a prorated portion of your RSUs shall vest on the date of your Retirement in an amount equal to the total number of your RSUs, multiplied by the percentage determined by dividing (i) the number of full calendar months that elapsed between the Grant Date and the Retirement date (including the month of Retirement); by (ii) 12. The remainder of the RSUs shall automatically be forfeited as of the date of your Retirement. The RSUs that vest in accordance with this section (1)B shall be converted to shares of Common Stock in substantially equal installments following the Vesting Dates in accordance with section (2) as if you remained in service through each such date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.** If your Retirement occurs after the Grant Year End, any unvested RSUs shall automatically vest in full on the date of your Retirement and shall be converted to shares of Common Stock in substantially equal installments following the remaining Vesting Dates in accordance with section (2) as if you remained in service through each such date.

For purposes of these Terms, "Retirement" shall have the meaning assigned to such term under the John Deere Pension Plan for Salaried Employees or any successor or similar plan of the Company or its Subsidiaries, or if there is no such plan, Retirement shall be determined by the Company in its sole discretion, subject to compliance with applicable law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**C.** **Disability or Death.** In the event of your termination of employment due to Disability or due to death, subject to sections (6) and (7), your unvested RSUs will vest on the date of your termination of employment. Your vested RSUs will be converted into shares of Common Stock in

------

substantially equal instalments following the remaining Vesting Dates in accordance with section (2) as if you remained in service through each such date. For purposes of these Terms, "Disability" shall have the meaning assigned to it under the John Deere Long-Term Disability Plan for Salaried Employees or any successor or similar plan of the Company or its Subsidiaries, or if there is no such plan, Disability shall be determined by the Company in its sole discretion, subject to compliance with applicable law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**D.** **Other Terminations.** Except as provided in sections (1)B and (1)C, and subject to section (6), if you terminate employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries before the RSUs are fully vested, all unvested RSUs held by you at that time shall be automatically forfeited along with any accrued Dividend Equivalents (as defined below).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**E.** In addition, pursuant to section 8.8 of the Plan, any unvested RSUs and Dividend Equivalents may be forfeited if you incur a suspension of employment or you are placed on a leave of absence, in either case subject to applicable law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**F.** Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, waive any automatic forfeiture provisions or apply new restrictions to the RSUs; provided that there shall be no acceleration of vesting of RSUs that would result in the imposition on any person of additional taxes, penalties or interest under Section 409A of the Code or by regulations of the Secretary of the United States Treasury.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(2)** **Conversion to Common Stock.** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**A.** Within five days following the applicable Vesting Date, you will receive a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of your vested RSUs (net of any shares of Common Stock withheld or sold on your behalf for Withholding Taxes (as defined below)), and such vested RSUs will terminate. If you have not met your stock ownership guideline requirements at the time of the conversion, you are required to continue to hold the shares of Common Stock received upon conversion of your vested RSUs (net of any shares of Common Stock withheld or sold on your behalf for Withholding Taxes) until your stock ownership guidelines are met. Stock ownership guidelines currently apply to salary grades E1 and above.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**B.** The Company will not be required to convert any RSUs to shares of Common Stock upon vesting until the requirements of any federal, state, or foreign securities laws, rules, or regulations or other laws or rules (including the rules of any securities exchange) as may be determined by the Company to be applicable are satisfied.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(3)** **Non-Transferability.** You may not voluntarily or involuntarily sell, transfer, gift, pledge, assign or otherwise alienate the RSUs or any rights under these Terms, including but not limited to transfers related to estate planning, dissolution of marriage, collection, execution, attachment, and any other voluntary or involuntary transfer. Any attempt to do so contrary to the provisions hereof shall be null and void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may, as described in section (16), designate a beneficiary or beneficiaries to exercise your rights and receive any shares of Common Stock issued or any cash paid with respect to the RSUs upon your death.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(4)** **No Stockholder Rights.** You will not have any rights of a stockholder with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable under the RSUs, including, but not limited to, voting rights, until the RSUs are converted and you become the record holder of those shares following their issuance after the satisfaction of the Withholding Taxes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(5)** **Dividend Equivalents.** You will not receive cash dividends on the RSUs, but instead shall, with respect to each RSU, be entitled to a cash payment from the Company determined on each cash dividend payment date with respect to the shares of Common Stock with a record date occurring at any time following the Grant Date but prior to the issuance of shares of Common Stock with respect thereto in accordance with section (2). Such cash payment shall be equal to the dividend that would have been paid on the share of Common Stock issuable with respect to each RSU had such share been issued and outstanding and entitled to the dividend ("Dividend Equivalents"). Dividend Equivalents shall be accrued and paid in cash at the time the vested RSUs to which they relate are converted to Common Stock. If any RSUs are forfeited, the corresponding cash Dividend Equivalents will also be forfeited.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(6)** **Change of Control**. Article VII of the Plan will apply to the RSUs and, in the event of a Change of Control, the Committee or the Board of Directors may take such actions as it deems appropriate pursuant to the Plan. Notwithstanding the definitions in Article VII, to the extent required by Section 409A of the Code, a "Change of Control" shall occur only if such event constitutes a "change in control event" as defined under Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-3(i)(5)(i). Article VII of the Plan shall be administered with respect to the RSUs so that it complies in all respects with Section 409A of the Code and the related regulations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(7)** **Special Forfeiture Provisions.** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**A.** In the event that your employment terminates due to Retirement, Disability, or with the consent of the Committee before the RSUs are converted to shares of Common Stock, your right to receive shares of Common Stock in exchange for your vested RSUs, if any, shall be subject to the Restrictive Covenants set forth in Attachment A. If it is determined that you have breached the Restrictive Covenants in Attachment A, your outstanding RSUs shall automatically be forfeited. Any determination by the Committee that you breached such Restrictive Covenants shall be final, binding and conclusive.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**B.** If you have attained salary grade E3 or above on or after the Grant Date, then, by accepting these Terms, you agree that the RSUs are subject to and conditioned on the terms of any applicable clawback policies approved by the Board or Committee, as in effect from time to time (including, without limitation, the Company's Executive Incentive Compensation Recoupment Policy, the Incentive Compensation Recovery Policy, or any successor or similar policy), whether approved before or after the Grant Date (as applicable, a "Clawback Policy"). Further, to the extent permitted by applicable law, including without limitation Section 409A of the Code, the RSUs are subject to offset in the event that you have an outstanding clawback, recoupment or forfeiture obligation to the Company under the terms of any applicable Clawback Policy. No RSUs (nor any portion thereof) shall be earned until you have met all the conditions of these Terms, and any clawback, recoupment or forfeiture provisions of any applicable Clawback Policy have been applied.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(9)** **Expenses.** Commissions, fees, and other expenses connected with the sale of shares of Common Stock following conversion of the RSUs are payable by you. No commissions or fees are charged for holding the RSUs and shares of Common Stock in the Fidelity brokerage account.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(10)** **Procedures.** RSUs are currently held and administered through Fidelity. Information regarding your RSU holdings is available via the Internet at _________________ or by calling __________ in the U.S.Toll-free codes for calling from outside the U.S. can be accessed via the Internet at ___________________.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(11)** **No Employment Rights**. Nothing herein confers any right or obligation on you to continue in the employ of the Company or any Subsidiary, nor shall the Plan or these Terms affect in any way your right or the right of the Company or any Subsidiary, as the case may be, to terminate your employment at any time,

------

subject to applicable law and the terms of any employment agreement between you and the Company or a Subsidiary. Nothing herein creates an employment agreement or becomes part of remuneration for purposes of determining other benefits. Receipt of this award does not entitle you to any future awards or other considerations even if the Committee decides to continue making such awards to other employees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(12)** **Severability**. If all or any part of these Terms or the Plan is declared by any court or governmental authority to be unlawful or invalid, such unlawfulness or invalidity shall not invalidate any portion of these Terms or the Plan not declared to be unlawful or invalid. Any part of these Terms so declared to be unlawful or invalid shall, if possible, be construed in a manner that will give effect to the terms thereof to the fullest extent possible while remaining lawful and valid. To the extent a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the Restrictive Covenants set forth in Attachment A are overly broad in duration or scope, the parties expressly agree that the court may modify the Restrictive Covenants so as to comply with applicable law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(13)** **Successors and Assigns**. The grant of RSUs evidenced by these Terms shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the heirs, legatees, legal representatives, successors and assigns of the parties hereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(14)** **Amendment**. These Terms may be amended only by a writing executed by the Company and you that specifically states that it is amending these Terms. Notwithstanding the foregoing, these Terms may be amended solely by the Committee by a writing which specifically states that it is amending these Terms, so long as a copy of such amendment is delivered to you, and provided that no such amendment adversely affecting your rights hereunder may be made without your written consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee reserves the right to change, by written notice to you, the provisions of the RSUs or these Terms in any way it may deem necessary or advisable (A) to carry out the purpose of the grant as a result of any change in applicable laws or regulations or any future law, regulation, ruling or judicial decision or (B) to ensure that you are not required to recognize taxable income with respect to your RSUs prior to the time that they are converted into shares of Common Stock and are not subject to any additional taxes, penalties or interest under Section 409A of the Code.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(15)** **Conformity with Plan.** These RSUs were granted pursuant to Article IV of the Plan and are subject to the provisions of the Plan. Any inconsistencies between these Terms and the Plan shall be resolved in accordance with the provisions of the Plan. By accepting the award, you agree to be bound by all the terms of the Plan and these Terms. The prospectus for the Plan is available at _______________ . A paper copy of the prospectus is also available upon request from the Deere & Company Global Compensation, One John Deere Place, Moline, Illinois, 61265-8098 or by contacting the Executive Compensation department at___________@JohnDeere.com .

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(16)** **Beneficiary.** You may at any time name or change the beneficiary or beneficiaries to whom unpaid amounts under the Plan will be paid in the case of your death (to the extent the beneficiary designation is valid under applicable law). Beneficiary designations can be made at _________________.

Your beneficiary designations for the Plan will remain in effect until changed by you and will apply to this and all future grants under the Plan. Please note that any Beneficiary Designation Form you made under the John Deere Omnibus Equity and Incentive Plan will not apply to benefits under the Plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(17)** **Section 409A**. This grant of RSUs is intended to comply with the applicable requirements of Section 409A of the Code and shall be administered in accordance with Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding anything in these Terms to the contrary, if the RSUs constitute "deferred compensation" under Section 409A of the Code and the RSUs are converted to shares of Common Stock upon your separation from service, payment with respect to the RSUs shall be delayed for a period of six months after your separation from service if you are a "specified employee" as defined under Section 409A of the Code (as determined by the Committee), if required pursuant to Section 409A of the Code. If payment is delayed, the shares of Common Stock shall be distributed within 30 days of the date that is the six-month anniversary of your termination of employment. If you die during the six-month delay, such shares shall be distributed in accordance with your will or under the applicable laws of descent and distribution. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein, payments made with respect to this grant of RSUs may only be made in a manner and upon an event permitted by Section 409A of the Code, and all

------

payments to be made upon a termination of employment hereunder may only be made upon a "separation from service" as defined under Section 409A of the Code. To the extent that any provision of these Terms would cause a conflict with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, or would cause the administration of the RSUs to fail to satisfy the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, such provision shall be deemed null and void to the extent permitted by applicable law. For purposes of Section 409A of the Code, each payment hereunder shall be treated as a separate payment, and the right to a series of installment payments under these Terms shall be treated as a right to a series of separate payments. In no event shall you, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of payment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(18)** **Electronic Delivery**. The Company may deliver any documents related to the RSUs, the Plan or future awards that may be granted under the Plan by electronic means. Such means of electronic delivery include, but are not limited to, 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 documents via e-mail or such other means of electronic delivery specified by the Company. You hereby acknowledge that you have read this provision and consent to the electronic delivery of the documents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(19)** **Additional Terms for Non-U.S. Participants**. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if you reside and/or work outside of the United States, you shall be subject to the Additional Terms and Conditions for Non-U.S. Participants attached hereto as Addendum A and to any Country-Specific Terms and Conditions attached hereto as Addendum B. If you are a citizen or resident of a country (or are considered as such for local law purposes) other than the one in which you currently reside or work or if you relocate to one of the countries included in the Country-Specific Terms and Conditions after the Grant Date, the special terms and conditions for such country will apply to you 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. The Terms and Conditions for Non-U.S. Participants and the Country-Specific Terms and Conditions constitute part of these Terms and are incorporated herein by reference.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(20)** **Grant Acceptance**. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE BEEN PROVIDED AT LEAST 14 DAYS TO REVIEW AND CONSIDER THESE TERMS.

## Exhibit 10.3

**Exhibit 10.3**

#### JOHN DEERE PERFORMANCE STOCK UNITS <br> TERMS AND CONDITIONS <br> GRANTED [____________] ("Grant Date")
Deere & Company Performance Stock Units ("PSUs") are granted pursuant to the John Deere 2020 Equity and Incentive Plan ("Plan"). These terms and conditions ("Terms") together with the Plan, contain the terms of your grant. You should read these Terms carefully. Any capitalized terms that are not otherwise defined in these Terms shall have the meaning assigned to them in the Plan.

PSUs are designed as long-term incentives to encourage ownership and focus on stockholder value.

PSUs are common stock equivalents and represent the right to receive an equivalent number of shares of Deere & Company ("Company") common stock $1 par value per share ("Common Stock") if and when certain vesting, performance, and retention requirements, as detailed below, are satisfied.

Individual awards are determined by the Deere & Company Board of Directors Compensation Committee ("Committee").

These Terms include certain restrictive covenants. If you are a resident of Illinois, you have the right to consult an attorney regarding these Terms. If you are a resident of Texas, you acknowledge that in consideration for your employment with the Company, the financial and other benefits you received from that employment, including the PSUs, and/or access to confidential information and/or trade secrets, you are bound by certain restrictive covenant provisions as outlined in these Terms.

Your PSUs are subject to the following provisions:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(1)** **Vesting.** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**A.** **General.** Except as provided in sections (1)B and (1)C below and subject to your acceptance of these Terms, your PSUs will vest on the third anniversary of the Grant Date (the "Vesting Date"), subject to your continued employment through the Vesting Date. The number of PSUs that vest, if any, will be determined based on the Company's performance relative to the metrics described in section (4) below, as determined by the Committee in its discretion. The period beginning on the Grant Date and ending on the Vesting Date is referred to as the "Vesting Period".

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**B.** **Retirement.** In the event of your termination of employment due to Retirement during the Vesting Period, subject to sections (7) and (8), the number of PSUs that shall be eligible to vest on the Vesting Date shall be determined as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.** If your Retirement occurs on or before October 31 of the fiscal year in which the Grant Date occurs (the "Grant Year End"), the prorated portion of your PSUs that shall be eligible to vest shall equal the total number of PSUs, multiplied by the percentage determined by dividing (i) the number of full calendar months that elapsed between the Grant Date and the Retirement date (including the month of Retirement); by (ii) 12. The remainder of PSUs shall be automatically forfeited as of the date of your Retirement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.** If your Retirement occurs after the Grant Year End, the total number of PSUs shall be eligible to vest on the Vesting Date.

For purposes of these Terms, "Retirement" shall have the meaning assigned to such term under the John Deere Pension Plan for Salaried Employees or any successor or similar plan of the Company or its Subsidiaries, or if there is no such plan, Retirement shall be determined by the Company in its sole discretion, subject to compliance with applicable law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**C.** **Disability or Death.** In the event of your termination of employment due to Disability or due to death during the Vesting Period, then, subject to sections (7) and (8), the total number of PSUs shall be eligible to vest on the Vesting Date. For purposes of these Terms, "Disability" shall have the meaning assigned to it under the John Deere Long-Term Disability Plan for Salaried Employees or any successor or similar plan of the Company or its Subsidiaries, or if there is no such plan, Disability shall be determined by the Company in its sole discretion, subject to compliance with applicable law.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**D.** **Other Terminations.** Except as provided in sections (1)B and (1)C, and subject to section (7), if you terminate employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries during the Vesting Period, all unvested PSUs held by you at that time shall be automatically forfeited.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**E.** In addition, pursuant to section 8.8 of the Plan, any unvested PSUs may be forfeited if you incur a suspension of employment or you are placed on a leave of absence, in either case subject to applicable law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**F.** Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, waive any automatic forfeiture provisions or apply new restrictions to the PSUs; provided that there shall be no acceleration of vesting of PSUs that would result in the imposition on any person of additional taxes, penalties or interest under Section 409A of the Code or by regulations of the Secretary of the United States Treasury.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(2)** **Conversion to Common Stock.** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**A.** Within five days following the Vesting Date, you will receive a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of your vested PSUs (net of any shares of Common Stock withheld or sold on your behalf for Withholding Taxes (as defined below)), and such vested PSUs will terminate. If you have not met your stock ownership guideline requirements at the time of the conversion, you are required to continue to hold the shares of Common Stock received upon conversion of your vested PSUs (net of any shares of Common Stock withheld or sold on your behalf for Withholding Taxes) until your stock ownership guidelines are met. Stock ownership guidelines currently apply to salary grades E1 and above.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**B.** The Company will not be required to convert any PSUs to shares of Common Stock upon vesting until the requirements of any federal, state, or foreign securities laws, rules, or regulations or other laws or rules (including the rules of any securities exchange) as may be determined by the Company to be applicable are satisfied.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(3)** **Non-Transferability.** You may not voluntarily or involuntarily sell, transfer, gift, pledge, assign or otherwise alienate the PSUs or any rights under these Terms, including but not limited to transfers related to estate planning, dissolution of marriage, collection, execution, attachment, and any other voluntary or involuntary transfer. Any attempt to do so contrary to the provisions hereof shall be null and void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may, as described in section (17), designate a beneficiary or beneficiaries to exercise your rights and receive any shares of Common Stock issued or any cash paid with respect to the PSUs upon your death.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(4)** **Performance Metrics.** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**A.** The number of PSUs that vest on the Vesting Date shall be determined, with 50% of the PSUs to be measured based on the Company's relative total shareholder return ("TSR") metric, as described in section (4)(D) (the "Relative TSR Vesting Percentage"), and 50% of the PSUs to be measured based on the Company's relative revenue growth metric, as described in section (4)(E) (the "Relative Revenue Growth Vesting Percentage").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**B.** The three-year period beginning on the first day of the Company's fiscal year in which the Grant Date occurred and ending on the final day of the Company's fiscal year of that three-year period shall be the performance period (the "Performance Period").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**C.** The performance peer group shall be approved by the Committee prior to the start of the Performance Period. The performance peer group as it is comprised on the first day of the Performance Period shall constitute the comparator group for purposes of the measuring the Company's performance metrics (the "Comparator Group"), subject to the following changes:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.** In the event of a merger, acquisition, or other business combination transaction of a company in the Comparator Group in which the company in the Comparator Group is the surviving entity and remains publicly traded, the surviving entity shall remain a company in the Comparator Group. Any entity involved in the transaction that is not the surviving company shall no longer be a company in the Comparator Group.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.** In the event of a merger, acquisition, or business combination transaction of a company in the Comparator Group, or a "going private" transaction or other event involving a company in the Comparator Group, in each case where the company in the Comparator Group is not the surviving entity or is no longer publicly traded, the company shall no longer be a company in the Comparator Group.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**3.** Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a bankruptcy, liquidation, or delisting of a company in the Comparator Group, such company shall remain a company in the Comparator Group but shall: (A) be deemed to have a TSR of negative 100% (-100%) for purposes of determining the Relative TSR Vesting Percentage; and (B) be placed at the bottom of the Comparator Group for purposes of determining the Relative Revenue Growth Vesting Percentage.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**D.** **Relative TSR.** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.** The Relative TSR Vesting Percentage shall be determined based on the Company's TSR percentile position within the Comparator Group at the end of the Performance Period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.** At the end of the Performance Period, the TSR for the Company, and for each company in the Comparator Group, shall be calculated by dividing (i) the Closing Average Share Value (as defined below) for the Performance Period by (ii) the Opening Average Share Value (as defined below) for the Performance Period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(a)** The term "Closing Average Share Value" for the Performance Period means the Average Stock Price of shares of the relevant company for the 20 trading days ending on the last day of the Performance Period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(b)** The term "Opening Average Share Value" for the Performance Period means the Average Stock Price of shares of the relevant company for the 20 trading days ending on the day before the first day of the Performance Period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(c)** The term "Average Stock Price" means the trailing 20-day average price of shares of the relevant company as of the applicable date on the primary securities exchange on which the shares of the relevant company are then listed or quoted for trading as of the close of each business day. The Average Stock Price shall be adjusted for dividends. Dividends shall be assumed to be reinvested in additional shares as of the ex-dividend date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**3.** The Company's TSR percentile position shall be determined by sequentially ranking each company in the Comparator Group, including the Company, from highest TSR in position 1 to the lowest.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4.** The Company's TSR percentile within the Comparator Group shall be rounded down to the nearest whole percentile, and will be calculated in the following manner, where N represents the total number of companies in the Comparator Group including the Company and R represents the Company's ranking within the Comparator Group:

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.** **Payout Table.** The number of PSUs vested and converted to shares of Common Stock can range from zero to two hundred percent of the number of PSUs granted depending on relative performance as described in section (4)(D), according to the following table. Amounts for interim points will be linearly interpolated.

|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Relative TSR Percentile vs. <br>Comparator Group | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Percentage of PSUs Vested |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Below 25<sup>th</sup> percentile | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;0% |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;At 25<sup>th</sup> percentile | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;25% |

|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;At 50<sup>th</sup> percentile | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;100% |

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**E.** **Relative Revenue Growth.** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.** The Relative Revenue Growth Vesting Percentage shall be determined based on the Company's compounded annual growth rate of revenues during the Performance Period relative to the compound annual revenue growth rate for the Comparator Group. Revenue growth for a company in the Comparator Group will be calculated by dividing (i) total net sales and revenues on a consolidated basis as reported ("Revenues") for the final year of the Performance Period by (ii) Revenues for the year prior to the start of the Performance Period; raising the quotient to the one-third power; then subtracting one from the result. For members of the Comparator Group, Revenues for a year are based on the last four quarters of data available from the Company's independent data service as of 1 November in the year of the Vesting Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.** Revenue growth for the Company will include net sales and revenues associated with an acquisition or with a business that has been divested.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**3.** The Company's relative revenue growth position shall be determined by sequentially ranking each company in the Comparator Group, including the Company, from highest revenue growth in position 1 to the lowest.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4.** The Company's relative revenue growth percentile within the Comparator Group shall be rounded down to the nearest whole percentile, and will be calculated in the following manner, where N represents the total number of companies in the Comparator Group including the Company and R represents the Company's ranking within the Comparator Group:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(5)** **No Stockholder Rights.** You will not have any rights of a stockholder with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable under the PSUs, including, but not limited to, voting rights, until the PSUs are converted and you become the record holder of those shares following their issuance after the satisfaction of the Withholding Taxes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(6)** **Dividend Equivalents.** No dividend equivalents with respect to cash dividends shall be paid to you with respect to the PSUs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(7)** **Change of Control Events.** Unless the Committee determines otherwise prior to a Change of Control, in the event of a Change of Control, (i) the vesting or forfeiture of the outstanding PSUs will be subject to the terms and conditions of Article VII of the Plan and (ii) in the event of a Qualifying Termination, the PSUs will be cashed out assuming the Company performance metrics applied in section (4) are at target and based on the Change of Control Price measured on the date of the Change of Control.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(8)** **Special Forfeiture Provisions.** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**A.** In the event that your employment terminates due to Retirement, Disability, or with the consent of the Committee before the PSUs are converted to shares of Common Stock, your right to vesting of your outstanding PSUs, if any, shall be subject to the Restrictive Covenants set forth in Attachment A. If it is determined that you have breached the Restrictive Covenants in Attachment A, your outstanding PSUs shall be automatically forfeited. Any determination by the Committee that you breached such Restrictive Covenants shall be final, binding and conclusive.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**B.** If you have attained salary grade E3 or above on or after the Grant Date, then, by accepting these Terms, you agree that the PSUs are subject to and conditioned on the terms of any applicable clawback policies approved by the Board or Committee, as in effect from time to time (including, without limitation, the Company's Executive Incentive Compensation Recoupment Policy, the Incentive Compensation Recovery Policy, or any successor or similar policy), whether approved before or after the Grant Date (as applicable, a "Clawback Policy"). Further, to the extent permitted by applicable law, including without limitation Section 409A of the Code, the PSUs are subject to offset in the event that you have an outstanding clawback, recoupment or forfeiture obligation to the Company under the terms of any applicable Clawback Policy. No PSUs (nor any portion thereof) shall be earned until you have met all the conditions of these Terms, and any clawback, recoupment or forfeiture provisions of any applicable Clawback Policy have been applied.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(9)** **Withholding Taxes.** The Company will take such actions as it deems appropriate to ensure that all applicable income taxes, employment taxes, social insurance, national insurance and other contributions, levies, payroll taxes, social security, payment on account obligations or other amounts ("Taxes") required to be collected, withheld or accounted for in connection with the vesting and/or issuance of shares of Common Stock (or other amounts or property) pursuant to the PSUs ("Withholding Taxes") are withheld or collected from you. As a default method, and unless the Committee determines otherwise, upon conversion of the PSUs to Common Stock, whole shares of Common Stock to be issued upon such conversion will be withheld and their value will be applied to the satisfaction of the Withholding Taxes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(10)** **Expenses.** Commissions, fees, and other expenses connected with the sale of shares of Common Stock following conversion of the PSUs are payable by you. No commissions or fees are charged for holding the PSUs and shares of Common Stock in the Fidelity brokerage account.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(11)** **Procedures.** PSUs are currently held and administered through Fidelity. Information regarding your PSU holdings is available via the Internet at _______________ or by calling ___________in the U.S. Toll-free codes for calling from outside the U.S. can be accessed via the Internet at ________________.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(12)** **No Employment Rights.** Nothing herein confers any right or obligation on you to continue in the employ of the Company or any Subsidiary, nor shall the Plan or these Terms affect in any way your right or the right of the Company or any Subsidiary, as the case may be, to terminate your employment at any time, subject to applicable law and the terms of any employment agreement between you and the Company or a Subsidiary. Nothing herein creates an employment agreement or becomes part of remuneration for purposes of determining other benefits. Receipt of this award does not entitle you to any future awards or other considerations even if the Committee decides to continue making such awards to other employees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(13)** **Severability.** If all or any part of these Terms or the Plan is declared by any court or governmental authority to be unlawful or invalid, such unlawfulness or invalidity shall not invalidate any portion of these Terms or the Plan not declared to be unlawful or invalid. Any part of these Terms so declared to be unlawful or invalid shall, if possible, be construed in a manner that will give effect to the terms thereof to the fullest extent possible while remaining lawful and valid. To the extent a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the Restrictive Covenants set forth in Attachment A are overly broad in duration or scope, the parties expressly agree that the court may modify the Restrictive Covenants so as to comply with applicable law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(14)** **Successors and Assigns.** The grant of PSUs evidenced by these Terms shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the heirs, legatees, legal representatives, successors and assigns of the parties hereto.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(15)** **Amendment.** These Terms may be amended only by a writing executed by the Company and you that specifically states that it is amending these Terms. Notwithstanding the foregoing, these Terms may be amended solely by the Committee by a writing which specifically states that it is amending these Terms, so long as a copy of such amendment is delivered to you, and provided that no such amendment adversely affecting your rights hereunder may be made without your written consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee reserves the right to change, by written notice to you, the provisions of the PSUs or these Terms in any way it may deem necessary or advisable (A) to carry out the purpose of the grant as a result of any change in applicable laws or regulations or any future law, regulation, ruling, or judicial decision, (B) to ensure that you are not required to recognize taxable income with respect to your PSUs prior to the time that they are converted into shares of Common Stock and are not subject to any additional taxes, penalties, or interest under Section 409A of the Code or (C) to exercise the Committee's discretion to eliminate or decrease the amount of the award as permitted by the Plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(16)** **Conformity with Plan.** These PSUs were granted pursuant to Article III of the Plan and are subject to the provisions of the Plan. Any inconsistencies between these Terms and the Plan shall be resolved in accordance with the provisions of the Plan. By accepting the award, you agree to be bound by all the terms of the Plan and these Terms. The prospectus for the Plan is available at _______________.

Beneficiary designations can be made at ____________.

Your beneficiary designations for the Plan will remain in effect until changed by you and will apply to this and all future grants under the Plan. Please note that any Beneficiary Designation Form you made under the John Deere Omnibus Equity and Incentive Plan will not apply to benefits under the Plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(18)** **Section 409A.** This grant of PSUs is intended to be exempt from or comply with the applicable requirements of Section 409A of the Code and shall be administered in accordance with Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding anything in these Terms to the contrary, if the PSUs constitute "deferred compensation" under Section 409A of the Code and the PSUs are converted to shares of Common Stock upon your separation from service, payment with respect to the PSUs shall be delayed for a period of six months after your separation from service if you are a "specified employee" as defined under Section 409A of the Code (as determined by the Committee), if required pursuant to Section 409A of the Code. If payment is delayed, the shares of Common Stock shall be distributed within 30 days of the date that is the six-month anniversary of your termination of employment. If you die during the six-month delay, such shares shall be distributed in accordance with your will or under the applicable laws of descent and distribution. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein, payments made with respect to this grant of PSUs may only be made in a manner and upon an event permitted by Section 409A of the Code, and all payments to be made upon a termination of employment hereunder may only be made upon a "separation from service" as defined under Section 409A of the Code. To the extent that any provision of these Terms would cause a conflict with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, or would cause the administration of the PSUs to fail to satisfy the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, such provision shall be deemed null and void to the extent permitted by applicable law. For purposes of Section 409A of the Code, each payment hereunder shall be treated as a separate payment, and the right to a series of installment payments under these Terms shall be treated as a right to a series of separate payments. In no event shall you, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of payment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(19)** **Electronic Delivery**. The Company may deliver any documents related to the PSUs, the Plan or future awards that may be granted under the Plan by electronic means. Such means of electronic delivery include, but are not limited to, 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 documents via e-mail or such other means of electronic delivery specified by the Company. You hereby acknowledge that you have read this provision and consent to the electronic delivery of the documents. You acknowledge that you may receive from the

Similarly, you understand that you must provide the Company with a paper copy of any documents if the attempted electronic delivery of such documents fails.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(20)** **Additional Terms for Non-U.S. Participants**. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if you reside and/or work outside of the United States, you shall be subject to the Additional Terms and Conditions for Non-U.S. Participants attached hereto as Addendum A and to any Country-Specific Terms and Conditions attached hereto as Addendum B. If you are a citizen or resident of a country (or are considered as such for local law purposes) other than the one in which you currently reside or work or if you relocate to one of the countries included in the Country-Specific Terms and Conditions after the Grant Date, the special terms and conditions for such country will apply to you 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. The Terms and Conditions for Non-U.S. Participants and the Country-Specific Terms and Conditions constitute part of these Terms and are incorporated herein by reference.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(21)** **Grant Acceptance.** YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE BEEN PROVIDED AT LEAST 14 DAYS TO REVIEW AND CONSIDER THESE TERMS. YOU MUST ACCEPT THESE TERMS BY DOING SO ON THE FIDELITY ADMINISTRATION WEBSITE (____________) PRIOR TO THE PSUS BEING CONVERTED TO SHARES OF COMMON STOCK. <u>IF YOU DO NOT ACCEPT THE TERMS AS INSTRUCTED, THIS GRANT WILL AUTOMATICALLY, WITHOUT FURTHER ACTION BY THE COMPANY OR THE COMMITTEE, TERMINATE AND THE PSUS SHALL BE FORFEITED.</u> 

ACCEPTANCE OF THESE TERMS CONSTITUTES YOUR CONSENT TO ANY ACTION TAKEN UNDER THE PLAN AND THESE TERMS AND YOUR AGREEMENT TO BE BOUND BY THE COVENANTS AND AGREEMENTS CONTAINED IN ATTACHMENT A HERETO. YOU SHOULD READ ATTACHMENT A CAREFULLY BEFORE DECIDING TO ACCEPT THE AWARD OF PSUS. IF YOU DECIDE NOT TO ACCEPT THIS AWARD YOU WILL FORFEIT THE PSUS AND THE RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS SET FORTH IN ATTACHMENT A WILL NOT APPLY. HOWEVER, YOU WILL CONTINUE TO BE SUBJECT TO ANY RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS WITH RESPECT TO PRIOR OR SUBSEQUENT EQUITY GRANTS AND ANY OTHER RESTRICTIVE COVENANT AGREEMENTS BETWEEN YOU AND THE COMPANY.
