			AptarGroup, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby grants to [[FIRSTNAME]] [[LASTNAME]] (the “Employee”) as of [_________]  (the “Option Date”), pursuant to the provisions of the AptarGroup, Inc. 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), a non-qualified option to purchase from the Company (the “Option”) [[SHARESGRANTED]] shares of its Common Stock, $.01 par value (“Stock”), at the price of [[GRANTPRICE]] per share (the “Exercise Price”) upon and subject to the terms and conditions set forth below. Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meanings specified in the Plan.
		

		
			1.         Option Subject to Acceptance of Agreement.
		

		
			The Option shall become null and void unless the Employee shall accept this Agreement by executing the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan Acceptance and Beneficiary Designation Form (the “Acceptance and Beneficiary Designation Form”) and returning it to the Company.
		

		
			2.         Time and Manner of Exercise of Option.
		

		
			2.1.      Maximum Term of Option. In no event may the Option be exercised, in whole or in part, after [INSERT EXPIRATION DATE] (the “Expiration Date”). 
		

		
			2.2.      Exercise of Option. (a) The Option shall become exercisable (i) on [INSERT FIRST VESTING DATE] with respect to one-third of the number of shares subject to the Option on the Option Date, (ii) on [INSERT SECOND VESTING DATE] with respect to an additional one-third of the number of shares subject to the Option on the Option Date, (iii) on [INSERT THIRD VESTING DATE] with respect to the remaining one-third of the number of shares subject to the Option on the Option Date, or (iv) as otherwise provided pursuant to this Section 2.2.
		

		
			(b)       If the Employee's employment by the Company terminates by reason of retirement, the Option shall continue to be exercisable and become exercisable in accordance with Section 2.2(a) and may thereafter be exercised by the Employee or the Employee's Legal Representative from the effective date of the Employee's termination of employment until the Expiration Date. For purposes of this Agreement, “retirement” shall mean termination of employment, other than for permanent disability or death, either (i) at or after age 55 after a minimum of ten years of employment with the Company or (ii) at or after age 65. For purposes of this Section 2.2(b) only, employment with an entity or business acquired by the Company shall be deemed to be employment with the Company.
		

		
			(c)       If the Employee's employment by the Company terminates by reason of permanent disability or death, the Option shall become fully exercisable and may thereafter be exercised by the Employee or the Employee's Legal Representative, in the case of permanent

disability, or the Employee's Legal Representative or Permitted Transferees, in the case of death, in each case for a period of three years from the effective date of the Employee's termination of employment or until the Expiration Date, whichever period is shorter. For purposes of this Agreement, “permanent disability” shall mean that the Employee either (i) is unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than twelve (12) months, or (ii) by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than twelve (12) months, is receiving income replacement benefits for a period of not less than six (6) months under an accident and health plan covering employees of the Employee’s employer.
		

		
			(d)       If the Employee’s employment by the Company terminates for any reason other than retirement, permanent disability or death, the Option shall be exercisable only to the extent that it was exercisable on the effective date of the Employee’s termination of employment and may thereafter be exercised by the Employee or the Employee’s Legal Representative for a period of one year from the effective date of the Employee’s termination of employment or until the Expiration Date, whichever period is shorter. The portion of the Option, if any, which is not vested as of the effective date of the Employee’s termination of employment shall be forfeited and cancelled by the Company.
		

		
			(e)       If the Employee dies prior to the Expiration Date following termination of employment by reason of retirement, the Option shall become fully exercisable and may thereafter be exercised by the Employee’s Legal Representative or Permitted Transferees, as the case may be, for a period of one year from the date of death or until the Expiration Date, whichever is shorter. If the Employee dies prior to the Expiration Date during the one-year period following termination of employment for any reason other than retirement or permanent disability, the Option shall be exercisable only to the extent that it was exercisable on the date of such death and may thereafter be exercised by the Employee's Legal Representative or Permitted Transferees, as the case may be, for a period of one year from the date of death or until the Expiration Date, whichever period is shorter.
		

		
			(f)        (1)       In the event of a Change in Control, the Option shall immediately become exercisable in full.
		

		
			(2)       In the event of a Change in Control pursuant to paragraph (1) or (2) of Appendix A to the Plan, the Board of Directors (as constituted prior to such Change in Control) may, in its discretion (subject to existing contractual arrangements), require that the Option, in whole or in part, be surrendered to the Company by the Employee and be immediately cancelled by the Company, and provide for the Employee to receive a cash payment from the Company in an amount equal to the number of shares of Stock subject to the Option immediately prior to such cancellation (but after giving effect to any adjustment pursuant to Section 7(b) of the Plan in respect of any transaction that gives rise to such Change in Control), multiplied by the excess, if any, of (i) the greater of (A) the highest per share price offered to holders of common stock in any transaction whereby the Change in Control takes place and (B) the Market Value of a share of Stock on the date on which such Change of Control occurs over (ii) the exercise price. 
		

		
			

		 

		

			2

		

 

(3)       In the event of a Change in Control pursuant to paragraph (3) or (4) of Appendix A to the Plan, the Board of Directors (as constituted prior to such Change in Control) may, in its discretion (subject to existing contractual arrangements):
		

		
			(i)require that shares of stock of the corporation resulting from such Change in Control, or a parent corporation thereof, be substituted for some or all of the shares of Stock subject to the Option, with an appropriate and equitable adjustment to the exercise price of such Option, as determined by the Board of Directors, such adjustment to be made without an increase in the aggregate purchase price; and/or
		

		
			(ii)require the Option, in whole or in part, to be surrendered to the Company by the Employee, and to be immediately cancelled by the Company, and provide for the Employee to receive (a) a cash payment in an amount not less than the amount determined by multiplying the number of shares of Stock subject to the Option immediately prior to such cancellation (but after giving effect to any adjustment pursuant to Section 7(b) of the Plan in respect of any transaction that gives rise to such Change in Control), by the excess, if any, of the highest per share price offered to holders of common stock in any transaction whereby the Change in Control takes place over the exercise price, (b) shares of stock of the corporation resulting from such Change in Control, or a parent corporation thereof, having a Market Value not less than the amount determined under clause (a) above or (c) a combination of a payment of cash pursuant to clause (a) above and the issuance of shares pursuant to clause (b) above.
		

		
			(4)        The Company may, but is not required to, cooperate with the Employee if the Employee is subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act to assure that any cash payment or substitution in accordance with this Section 2.2(f) to the Employee is made in compliance with Section 16 and the rules and regulations thereunder.
		

		
			2.3.      Method of Exercise.  
		

		
			(a)        Subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement, the Option may be exercised by the Employee (i) by giving written notice to the Company specifying the number of whole shares of Stock to be purchased and accompanied by payment therefor in full in cash and (ii) by executing such documents as the Company may reasonably request. The purchase price of the shares being purchased may be paid in cash on behalf of the Employee by a broker-dealer acceptable to the Company to whom the Employee has submitted an irrevocable notice of exercise; provided,  however, that the Committee shall have sole discretion to disapprove of an election to use a broker-dealer. No shares of Stock shall be issued until the full purchase price has been paid.
		

		
			(b)        Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the Expiration Date  exceeds the Exercise Price, then to the extent the Option has not theretofore been exercised, expired or otherwise terminated, the Company shall cause the Option to be automatically exercised immediately prior to its termination on the Expiration Date, and to 

		 

		

			3

		

 

provide for the full Exercise Price therefor to be satisfied by withholding whole shares of Common Stock that would otherwise be delivered to the Employee having an aggregate Market Value, determined as of the date of exercise, equal to the amount necessary to satisfy such Exercise Price and to provide for any withholding taxes thereon (as described in Section 3.2) to be satisfied by selling such number of shares of Common Stock subject to the Option as is necessary to make a cash payment to the Company in an amount equal to any withholding taxes thereon (as described in Section 3.2), such sale to be effected on the Employee's behalf through a broker (and other procedures) designated by the Company (with such broker selecting the trade date and the selling price).   Shares of Common Stock to be withheld may not have an aggregate Market Value in excess of the amount determined by applying the minimum statutory withholding rate.  Any fraction of a share of Common Stock which would be required to satisfy such an obligation shall be disregarded and the remaining amount due shall be paid in cash by the Employee. This Section 2.3(b) is intended to constitute a written plan pursuant to Rule 10b5-1(c) under the Exchange Act.  To the extent applicable, the Employee shall take actions necessary to ensure that any such sales shall comply with Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
		

		
			2.4.      Termination of Option. In no event may the Option be exercised after it terminates as set forth in this Section 2.4. The Option shall terminate, to the extent not exercised pursuant to Section 2.3 or earlier terminated pursuant to Section 2.2, on the Expiration Date.
		

		
			2.5.      Termination of Option and Forfeiture of Option Gain. (a) If at any time prior to the earliest to occur of (i) the Expiration Date, (ii) the date which is one year after the effective date of the Employee's termination of employment for any reason other than death and (iii) the date which is six months after the Employee exercises any portion of the Option, the Employee:
		

		
			(1)      directly or indirectly (whether as principal, agent, independent contractor, partner or otherwise) engages in any type of or accepts employment with or renders services to any Competing Entity or takes any action inconsistent with the fiduciary relationship of an employee to the employee's employer; provided, that, following a termination of employment, the Employee may accept employment with a Competing Entity, the businesses of which are diversified, and which with respect to one or more of its businesses considered separately is not a Competing Entity, provided, that the Company, prior to the Employee's accepting such employment, shall receive written assurances satisfactory to the Company from such Competing Entity and from the Employee that the Employee will not render services directly or indirectly in connection with any Competing Product or be employed in a position where the Employee could use or disclose confidential information of the Company or an Affiliate or of any customer or client of the Company or an Affiliate in connection with the Employee's employment responsibilities to the benefit of a Competing Entity; or
		

		
			(2)      directly or indirectly induces or attempts to induce any employee, agent or customer of the Company or any Affiliate to terminate such employment, agency or business relationship, or take any action or engage in any conduct which would interfere with the employment relationship between the Company and any of its employees; or 
		

		
			

		 

		

			4

		

 

(3)      directly or indirectly, for the Employee or any Competing Entity, sells or offers for sale, or assists in any way in the sale of, Competing Products to any customer or client of the Company or any Affiliate, upon which the Employee has called or which the Employee has supervised while an employee of the Company or an Affiliate; or
		

		
			(4)      directly or indirectly engages in any activity which is contrary, inimical or harmful to the interests of the Company or an Affiliate, including but not limited to (x) violations of Company policies, including the Company's insider trading and confidentiality policies and (y) disclosure or misuse of any confidential information or trade secrets of the Company or an Affiliate, then the Option shall terminate automatically on the date the Employee engages in such activity and the Employee shall pay the Company, within five business days of receipt by the Employee of a written demand therefor, an amount in cash determined by multiplying the number of shares of Stock purchased pursuant to each exercise of the Option (without reduction for any shares of Stock delivered by the Employee or withheld by the Company in satisfaction of the purchase price or any tax withholding obligations) by the difference between (A) the Market Value of a share of Stock on the date of such exercise and (B) the purchase price per share of Stock set forth in the first paragraph of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, “Competing Entity” means any business entity, regardless of its form (e.g. corporations, partnerships, sole proprietorships, trusts and joint ventures), which is engaged in, or is about to become engaged in, research or development, production, marketing or selling of any Competing Product anywhere worldwide which the Company or its Affiliates is engaged in business; and “Competing Product” means any product, technology or process of any person or organization other than the Company, in existence or under development, which is of the same type or intended for the same use as, or which competes or is potentially competitive with, a product, technology or process of the Company.
		

		
			(b)        The Employee may be released from the Employee's obligations under Section 2.5(a) only if and to the extent the Committee determines in its sole discretion that such a release is in the best interests of the Company.
		

		
			(c)         Employee agrees that by executing this Agreement the Employee authorizes the Company and its Affiliates to deduct any amount or amounts owed by the Employee pursuant to Section 2.5(a) from any amounts payable by the Company or any Affiliate to the Employee, including, without limitation, any amount payable to the Employee as salary, wages, vacation pay or bonus. This right of setoff shall not be an exclusive remedy and the Company's or an Affiliate's election not to exercise this right of setoff with respect to any amount payable to the Employee shall not constitute a waiver of this right of setoff with respect to any other amount payable to the Employee or any other remedy.
		

		
			3.          Additional Terms and Conditions of Option.
		

		
			3.1.       Nontransferability of Option. The Option may not be transferred by the Employee other than (i) by will or the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to beneficiary designation procedures approved by the Company or (ii) a transfer without value to a “family member” (as defined in Form S-8) if approved by the Committee. Except to the extent permitted by the foregoing sentence, during the Employee's lifetime the Option is exercisable only by the 

		 

		

			5

		

 

Employee or the Employee's Legal Representative. Except to the extent permitted by the foregoing, the Option may not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, hypothecated, encumbered or otherwise disposed of (whether by operation of law or otherwise) or be subject to execution, attachment or similar process. Upon any attempt to so sell, transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate, encumber or otherwise dispose of the Option, the Option and all rights hereunder shall immediately become null and void.
		

		
			3.2.       Withholding Taxes. As a condition precedent to any exercise of the Option, the Employee shall, upon request by the Company, pay to the Company (or shall cause a broker-dealer on behalf of the Employee in accordance with Section 2.3 to pay to the Company) in addition to the purchase price of the shares, such amount of cash as the Company may be required, under all applicable federal, state, local or other laws or regulations, to withhold and pay over as income or other withholding taxes (the "Required Tax Payments") with respect to such exercise of the Option. If the Employee shall fail to advance the Required Tax Payments after request by the Company, the Company may, in its discretion, deduct any Required Tax Payments from any amount then or thereafter payable by the Company to the Employee.
		

		
			3.3.       Compliance with Applicable Law. The Option is subject to the condition that if the listing, registration or qualification of the shares subject to the Option upon any securities exchange or under any law, or the consent or approval of any governmental body, or the taking of any other action is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the purchase or delivery of shares hereunder, the Option may not be exercised, in whole or in part, unless such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or obtained. The Company agrees to make every reasonable effort to effect or obtain any such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval.
		

		
			3.4.       Issuance of Shares. Upon the exercise of the Option, in whole or in part, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in the Employee’s name (or such other name as is acceptable to the Company and designated in writing by the Employee) the shares of Stock acquired upon exercise.  Such issuance shall be evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company (or, alternatively at the discretion of the Company, a certificate or certificates may be registered in the Employee’s name).  The Company shall pay all original issue or transfer taxes and all fees and expenses incident to such delivery, except as otherwise provided in Section 3.2.
		

		
			3.5.       Option Confers No Rights as Stockholder. The Employee shall not be entitled to any privileges of ownership with respect to shares of Stock subject to the Option unless and until purchased and delivered upon the exercise of the Option, in whole or in part, and the Employee becomes a stockholder of record with respect to such delivered shares; and the Employee shall not be considered a stockholder of the Company with respect to any such shares not so purchased and delivered.
		

		
			3.6.       Option Confers No Rights to Continued Employment. In no event shall the granting of the Option or its acceptance by the Employee give or be deemed to give the Employee any right to continued employment by the Company or any Affiliate of the Company.
		

		
			

		 

		

			6

		

 

3.7.       Decisions of Board or Committee. The Board or the Committee shall have the right to resolve all questions which may arise in connection with the Option or its exercise.

			3.8.       Company to Reserve Shares. The Company shall at all times prior to the expiration or termination of the Option reserve and keep available, either in its treasury or out of its authorized but unissued shares of Stock, the full number of shares subject to the Option from time to time.
		

		
			3.9.       Agreement Subject to the Plan. This Agreement is subject to the provisions of the Plan (including the adjustment provision set forth in Section 7(b) thereof), and shall be interpreted in accordance therewith. The Employee hereby acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan.

Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meanings specified in the Plan.
		

		
			1.Award Subject to Acceptance of Agreement.  The Award shall be null and void unless the Employee shall accept this Agreement by executing it in the space provided below and returning it to the Company.
		

		
			2.Restriction Period and Vesting.  (a)  The Award shall vest (i) with respect to [INSERT NUMBER OF UNITS] restricted stock units subject to the Award on _______, ____, an additional [INSERT NUMBER OF UNITS] restricted stock units subject to the Award on _______, ____, and the remaining [INSERT NUMBER OF UNITS] restricted stock units subject to the Award on _______, ____, or (ii) as otherwise provided pursuant to this Section 2 (the “Restriction Period”).
		

		
			(b)If the Employee’s employment by the Company terminates by reason of retirement, the Award shall continue to vest in accordance with Section 2(a)(i) or earlier pursuant to Section 2(e) hereof; provided, however, that if the Employee dies after such Employee’s termination of employment by reason of retirement, the portion of the Award, if any, which is not vested as of the date of death shall become fully vested as of the date of death.  For purposes of this Agreement, “retirement” shall mean termination of employment, other than for permanent disability or death, either (i) at or after age 55 after a minimum of ten years of employment with the Company or (ii) at or after age 65.  For purposes of this Section 2(b) only, employment with an entity or business acquired by the Company shall be deemed to be employment with the Company.
		

		
			(c)Upon the Employee’s permanent disability or death, the Award shall become fully vested as of the date of the Employee’s permanent disability or death, as the case may be.  For purposes of this Agreement, “permanent disability” shall mean that the Employee either (i) is unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than twelve (12) months, or (ii) by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than twelve (12) months, is receiving income replacement benefits for a period of not less than six (6) months under an accident and health plan covering employees of the Employee’s employer.
		

		
			(d)If the Employee’s employment by the Company terminates for any reason other than retirement, permanent disability or death, the portion of the Award, if any, which is not 

		 

		

			 

		

 

vested as of the effective date of the Employee’s termination of employment shall be forfeited and cancelled by the Company.  
		

		
			(e)(1)  In the event of a Change in Control, the Award shall immediately vest in full, except as otherwise provided in the last sentence of Section 2(e)(2) hereof.
		

		
			(2)In the event of a Change in Control pursuant to paragraph (3) or (4) of Appendix A to the Plan, the Board of Directors (as constituted prior to such Change in Control) may, in its discretion (subject to existing contractual arrangements):
		

		
			(i)require that shares of stock of the corporation resulting from such Change in Control, or a parent corporation thereof, be substituted for some or all of the Shares (as defined in Section 3) issuable pursuant to the Award, as determined by the Board of Directors; and/or
		

		
			(ii)require the Award, in whole or in part, to be surrendered to the Company by the Employee and to be immediately cancelled by the Company, and provide for the Employee to receive a cash payment in an amount not less than the amount determined by multiplying the number of restricted stock units subject to the Award immediately prior to such cancellation (but after giving effect to any adjustment pursuant to Section 7(b) of the Plan in respect of any transaction that gives rise to such Change in Control), by the highest per share price offered to holders of Common Stock in any transaction whereby the Change in Control takes place.
		

		
			Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Sections 2(e)(1) and 2(e)(2), in the event that (A) the Award constitutes the payment of nonqualified deferred compensation within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, and (B) the Change in Control does not constitute a “change in control event” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, the Award shall not immediately vest upon such Change in Control, but instead shall vest and be payable in the shares of stock substituted, as determined by the Board of Directors pursuant to Section 2(e)(2)(i) hereof, for the Shares (as defined in Section 3 hereof) issuable pursuant to the Award, or the Award shall vest and be payable in cash, as determined by the Board of Directors pursuant to Section 2(e)(2)(ii) hereof, in either case in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth in clause (i) of Section 2(a) hereof, regardless of whether the Employee continues to be employed by the Company, or earlier pursuant to Section 2(c) hereof.
		

		
			(3)The Company may, but is not required to, cooperate with the Employee if the Employee is subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act to assure that any cash payment or substitution in accordance with the foregoing to the Employee is made in compliance with Section 16 and the rules and regulations thereunder.
		

		
			3.Conversion of Restricted Stock Units and Issuance of Shares.    Upon the vesting of all or any portion of the Award in accordance with Section 2 hereof, one share of the Company’s Common Stock, $0.01 par value, shall be issuable for each restricted stock unit that vests on such date (the “Shares”), subject to the terms and provisions of the Plan and this Agreement.  Thereafter, the Company will transfer such Shares to the Employee upon satisfaction of any required tax withholding obligations.  No fractional shares shall be issued under this Agreement.

			4.Rights as a Stockholder.  The Employee shall not be entitled to any privileges of ownership (including any voting rights or rights with respect to dividends paid on the Common Stock) with respect to any of the Shares issuable under the Award unless and until, and only to the extent, the Award is settled by the issuance of such Shares to the Employee.
		

		
			5.Termination of Award.  In the event that the Employee shall forfeit all or a portion of the restricted stock units subject to the Award, the Employee shall promptly return this Agreement to the Company for cancellation.

Except as permitted by the foregoing, during the Restriction Period, the restricted stock units subject to the Award and not then vested may not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, hypothecated, encumbered or otherwise disposed of (whether by operation of law or otherwise) or be subject to execution, attachment or similar process.  Any such attempted sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, hypothecation or encumbrance, or other disposition of such restricted stock units shall be null and void.

If the Employee shall fail to advance the Required Tax Payments after request by the Company, the Company may, in its discretion, deduct any Required Tax Payments from any amount then or thereafter payable by the Company to the Employee.
		

		
			6.3Compliance with Applicable Law.  The Award is subject to the condition that if the listing, registration or qualification of the Shares subject to the Award upon any securities exchange or under any law, or the consent or approval of any governmental body, or the taking of any other action is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the vesting of the restricted stock units or the delivery of the Shares hereunder, the Shares subject to the Award may not be delivered, in whole or in part, unless such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or obtained, free of any conditions not acceptable to the Company.  The Company agrees to use reasonable efforts to effect or obtain any such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval.
		

		
			6.4Issuance of Shares.  Subject to Sections 6.2 and 6.3, within 30 days after the vesting of the Award, in whole or in part, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in the Employee’s name (or such other name as is acceptable to the Company and designated in writing by the Employee) the vested Shares.

			3

		

 

alternatively at the discretion of the Company, a certificate or certificates may be registered in the Employee’s name).  The Company shall pay all original issue or transfer taxes and all fees and expenses incident to such delivery, except as otherwise provided in Section 6.2.
		

		
			6.5Award Confers No Rights to Continued Employment.  In no event shall the granting of the Award or its acceptance by the Employee give or be deemed to give the Employee any right to continued employment by the Company or any Affiliate of the Company.
		

		
			6.6Decisions of Board or Committee.  The Board of Directors of the Company or the Committee shall have the right to resolve all questions which may arise in connection with the Award.  Any interpretation, determination or other action made or taken by the Board of Directors or the Committee regarding the Plan or this Agreement shall be final, binding and conclusive.
