TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS GRANT

The following Terms and Conditions apply to the SARs granted to Employee by INTERNATIONAL FLAVORS & FRAGRANCES INC. (the ‘‘Company’’), as specified on the preceding page. Certain specific terms of the SARs, including the number of shares purchasable, vesting and expiration dates, and the Base Price, are set forth on the preceding page.

1.    General.    The SARs are granted to Employee under the Company’s 2000 Stock Award and Incentive Plan (the ‘‘Plan’’), a copy of which is available for review, along with other documents constituting the ‘‘prospectus’’ for the Plan, on the Company’s intranet site at One IFF/Corporate/Law Department. All of the terms, conditions and other provisions of the Plan are incorporated by reference herein. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement but not defined herein (or in the preceding page) shall have the same meanings as in the Plan. If there is any conflict between the provisions of this document and mandatory provisions of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan govern. By accepting the grant of the SARs, Employee agrees to be bound by all of the terms and provisions of the Plan (as presently in effect or later amended), rules and regulations under the Plan adopted from time to time, and decisions and determinations of the Company’s Compensation Committee (the ‘‘Committee’’) made from time to time, provided that no such Plan amendment, rule or regulation or Committee decision or determination shall materially and adversely affect the rights of the Employee with respect to the SARs without Employee’s consent.

2.    Right to Exercise SARs.    Subject to all applicable laws, rules, regulations and the terms of the Plan and this Agreement, Employee may exercise the SARs if and to the extent it has become vested and exercisable but not after the Stated Expiration Date of the SARs.

3.    Method of Exercise.    To exercise the SARs, unless otherwise permitted by the Company, Employee must give written notice to the Company or its agent, which notice shall specifically refer to this Agreement, state the number of Shares as to which the SARs are being exercised, the name in which he or she wishes the Shares to be issued, and be signed by Employee. Once Employee gives a valid notice of exercise, such notice may not be revoked. When Employee exercises the SARs, or part thereof, the Company will transfer Shares (or make a certificate-less credit) to Employee’s brokerage account at a designated securities brokerage firm or otherwise deliver Shares to Employee. No Employee or Beneficiary shall have at any time any rights with respect to shares covered by this Agreement prior to issuance of certificates (or certificate-less credit) therefor following exercise of the SARs as provided above. No adjustment shall be made for dividends or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date of issue of such stock certificates (or credit). If any fractional Share would be deliverable upon exercise, after taking into account withholding for mandatory taxes in accordance with Section 9(a), the Company will pay cash in lieu of delivery of such fractional Share or will use such cash to apply towards withholding for taxes.

4.    Transferability.    Except to the extent permitted under and subject to the conditions of Section 11(b) of the Plan, the SARs may not be assigned or transferred in any way by the Employee, except at the Employee’s death, by his or her will or pursuant to the applicable laws of descent and distribution or to his or her designated Beneficiary, and in the event of his or her death the SARs shall be exercisable as provided in Section 5 hereof. If Employee shall attempt to make such prohibited assignment or transfer, the unexercised portion of the SARs shall be null and void and the Company shall have no further liability hereunder.

5.    Termination Provisions.    The following provisions will govern the vesting, exercisability and expiration of the SARs in the event of Employee’s Termination of Employment (as defined below); provided that the Committee retains its powers to accelerate vesting or modify these terms subject to the consent of Employee in the case of a modification materially adverse to Employee:

(a)    Exercise While Employed; Voluntary Resignation and Termination by the Company for Cause.    Except as provided in this Section 5, Employee shall have the right to exercise the SARs only so long as he or she remains in the employ of the Company or a subsidiary of the Company, including a subsidiary which becomes such after the date of this Agreement. Accordingly, in the event of Employee’s Termination of Employment due to his or her voluntarily resignation (other 

3

than a Normal or Early Retirement governed by clause (b) or (c) below) or Termination of Employment by the Company for Cause (as defined below), all unvested SARs will be immediately forfeited, and all vested SARs (i) will cease to be exercisable and will terminate on the date three months after Termination of Employment due to such Voluntary Resignation (but in no event after the Stated Expiration Date) and (ii) will cease to be exercisable and will terminate immediately in the case of a Termination by the Company for Cause.

(b)    Disability or Normal Retirement.    In the event of Employee’s Termination of Employment due to Disability (as defined below) or Normal Retirement (as defined below), the following rules will apply:

			
		• 	Employee’s unvested SARs will not be forfeited, but will remain outstanding and will become exercisable at the applicable date under this Agreement as though Employee had not had such a Termination of Employment; provided that, in the case of Termination of Employment due to Disability or Normal Retirement, Employee shall forfeit the unvested SARs if before the date of vesting Employee engages in activity that results in a Forfeiture Event set forth in Section 10 of the Plan. Employee acknowledges that the Committee has relied on the discretion granted to it under Section 10(e) of the Plan in requiring forfeiture upon occurrence of a Forfeiture Event during the applicable post-Termination period.

			
		• 	Unless forfeited, Employee’s SARs shall remain outstanding and exercisable until the Stated Expiration Date, at which date the SARs will cease to be exercisable and will terminate, except as otherwise provided herein.

(c)    Termination by the Company Not for Cause or Early Retirement.    In the event of Employee’s Termination of Employment by the Company not for Cause or Employee’s Early Retirement, the following rules apply:

			
		• 	A pro rata portion of Employee’s then unvested SARs will not be forfeited, but will remain outstanding and will become exercisable at the applicable date under this Agreement as though Employee had not had such a Termination of Employment. This pro rata portion will be determined by multiplying the number of such unvested SARs by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days from the Grant Date to the date of Employee’s Termination of Employment and the denominator of which is 1,095; provided that Employee shall forfeit the unvested SARs if before the date of vesting Employee engages in activity that results in a Forfeiture Event set forth in Section 10 of the Plan. Employee acknowledges that the Committee has relied on the discretion granted to it under Section 10(e) of the Plan in requiring forfeiture upon occurrence of a Forfeiture Event during the applicable post-Termination period.

			
		• 	Employee’s SARs that had not become vested before such Termination of Employment and are not included in the pro rata portion subject to continued vesting will be immediately forfeited.

			
		• 	Employee’s SARs that were vested at the time of such Termination of Employment and those that thereafter become vested under this Section 5(c) shall remain outstanding and exercisable until the Stated Expiration Date, at which date the SARs will cease to be exercisable and will terminate.

(d)    Death.    In the event of Employee’s Termination of Employment due to death or death of Employee following Termination but prior to vesting of SARs not otherwise forfeited hereunder, Employee’s unvested SARs will not be forfeited but will become immediately vested and exercisable, and all vested SARs shall remain outstanding and exercisable until the Stated Expiration Date, at which date the SARs will cease to be exercisable and will terminate, except as otherwise provided herein. Any SARs exercisable under this Section 5(d) following Employee’s death may be exercised by Employee’s legal representative, distributee, legatee or designated Beneficiary, as the case may be.

4

(e)    Certain Definitions.    The following definitions apply for purposes of this Agreement:

(i)    ‘‘Cause’’ has the meaning as defined in the Company’s Executive Separation Policy or any successor policy thereto, as in effect at the time of Employee’s Termination of Employment.

(ii)    ‘‘Disability’’ means a disability entitling Employee to long-term disability benefits under the Company’s long-term disability policy as in effect at the date of Employee’s termination of employment, upon written evidence of such permanent disability from a medical doctor in a form satisfactory to the Company.

(iii)    ‘‘Early Retirement’’ means Termination of Employment by either the Company or Employee after Employee has attained age 55 and before he or she has attained age 62 if at the time of Termination Employee has ten or more years in the employ of the Company and/or its subsidiaries.

(iv)    ‘‘Normal Retirement’’ means Termination of Employment by either the Company or Employee after Employee has attained age 62.

(v)    ‘‘Termination of Employment’’ means the event by which Employee ceases to be employed by the Company or any subsidiary of the Company and, immediately thereafter, is not employed by or providing substantial services to any of the Company or a subsidiary of the Company. If Employee is granted a leave of absence for military or governmental service or other purposes approved by the Board, he or she shall be considered as continuing in the employ of the Company, or of a subsidiary of the Company, for the purpose of this subsection, while on such authorized leave of absence.

6.    Change in Control Provisions.    The provisions of Section 9 of the Plan shall not apply to the SARs, except as specifically provided in this Section 6. In the event of a Change in Control (as defined in Section 9 of the Plan), the SARs, if not previously forfeited, will be fully vested and exercisable for a period of 90-days commencing at the date of the Change in Control, during which period Employee may elect to receive, instead of shares upon exercise, cash in an amount equal to (i) the Fair Market Value of a Share at the date of exercise minus the Base Price per share of the SARs times (ii) the number of shares that remained subject to the SARs (whether or not vested) at the time of the Change in Control (this payment will be required only if it is a positive amount). Such cash payment shall be made in a lump sum at the date of exercise. At the expiration of such 90-day period following the Change in Control, Employee will have no further rights with respect to the SARs, which thereupon will terminate.

7.    Forfeiture Provisions.    Employee agrees that, by signing this Agreement and accepting the grant of the SARs, the forfeiture conditions set forth in Section 5(b) hereof and in Section 10 of the Plan shall apply to the SARs and to gains realized upon the exercise of the SARs (in addition to the requirements of Section 5(b) and (c) applicable during any period of continued vesting following Termination of Employment).

8.    Employee Representations and Warranties, Consents and Acknowledgements.

(a)    As a condition to the exercise of the SARs, the Company may require Employee to make any representation or warranty to the Company as may be required under any applicable law or regulation, and to make a representation and warranty that no Forfeiture Event has occurred or is contemplated within the meaning of Section 5(b) hereof and Section 10 of the Plan.

(b)    By signing this Agreement, Employee voluntarily acknowledges and consents to the collection, use processing and transfer of personal data as described in this clause (b). Employee is not obliged to consent to such collection, use, processing and transfer of personal data; however, failure to provide the consent may affect Employee’s ability to participate in the Plan. The Company and its subsidiaries hold, for the purpose of managing and administering the Plan, certain personal information about Employee, including Employee’s name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social security number or other employee identification number, 

5

salary, nationality, job title, any shares of stock or directorships held in the Company, details of all options and SARs or any other entitlement to shares of stock awarded, canceled, purchased, vested, unvested or outstanding in Employee’s favor (‘‘Data’’). The Company and/or its subsidiaries will transfer Data among themselves as necessary for the purpose of implementation, administration and management of Employee’s participation in the Plan and the Company and/or any of its subsidiaries may each further transfer Data to any third parties assisting the Company in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. These recipients may be located in the European Economic Area, or elsewhere throughout the world, such as the United States. Employee authorizes them to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the purposes of implementing, administering and managing Employee’s participation in the Plan, including any requisite transfer of such Data as may be required for the administration of the Plan and/or the subsequent holding of Shares on Employee’s behalf to a broker or other third party with whom Employee may elect to deposit any Shares acquired pursuant to the Plan. Employee may, at any time, review Data, require any necessary amendments to it or withdraw the consents herein in writing by contacting the Company; however, withdrawing consent may affect Employee’s ability to participate in the Plan.

(c)    Employee’s participation in the Plan is voluntary. The value of the SARs is an extraordinary item of compensation. As such, the SARs are not part of normal or expected compensation for purposes of calculating any severance, resignation, redundancy, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement benefits or similar payments. Rather, the awarding of the SARs to Employee under the Plan represents a mere investment opportunity.

(d)    EMPLOYEE HEREBY CONSENTS TO ELECTRONIC DELIVERY OF THE PLAN, THE PROSPECTUS FOR THE PLAN AND OTHER DOCUMENTS RELATED TO THE PLAN (COLLECTIVELY, THE ‘‘PLAN DOCUMENTS’’). THE COMPANY WILL DELIVER THE PLAN DOCUMENTS ELECTRONICALLY TO EMPLOYEE BY E-MAIL, BY POSTING SUCH DOCUMENTS ON ITS INTRANET WEBSITE OR BY ANOTHER MODE OF ELECTRONIC DELIVERY AS DETERMINED BY THE COMPANY IN ITS SOLE DISCRETION. THE COMPANY WILL SEND TO EMPLOYEE AN E-MAIL ANNOUNCEMENT WHEN A NEW PLAN DOCUMENT IS AVAILABLE ELECTRONICALLY FOR EMPLOYEE’S REVIEW, DOWNLOAD OR PRINTING AND WILL PROVIDE INSTRUCTIONS ON WHERE THE PLAN DOCUMENT CAN BE FOUND. UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED IN WRITING BY THE COMPANY, EMPLOYEE WILL NOT INCUR ANY COSTS FOR RECEIVING THE PLAN DOCUMENTS ELECTRONICALLY THROUGH THE COMPANY’S COMPUTER NETWORK. EMPLOYEE WILL HAVE THE RIGHT TO RECEIVE PAPER COPIES OF ANY PLAN DOCUMENT BY SENDING A WRITTEN REQUEST FOR A PAPER COPY TO THE ADDRESS SPECIFIED IN SECTION 9(e) HEREOF. EMPLOYEE’S CONSENT TO ELECTRONIC DELIVERY OF THE PLAN DOCUMENTS WILL BE VALID AND REMAIN EFFECTIVE UNTIL THE EARLIER OF (I) THE TERMINATION OF EMPLOYEE’S PARTICIPATION IN THE PLAN AND (II) THE WITHDRAWAL OF EMPLOYEE’S CONSENT TO ELECTRONIC DELIVERY OF THE PLAN DOCUMENTS. THE COMPANY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT EMPLOYEE HAS THE RIGHT AT ANY TIME TO WITHDRAW HIS OR HER CONSENT TO ELECTRONIC DELIVERY OF THE PLAN DOCUMENTS BY SENDING A WRITTEN NOTICE OF WITHDRAWAL TO THE ADDRESS SPECIFIED IN SECTION 9(e) HEREOF. IF EMPLOYEE WITHDRAWS HIS OR HER CONSENT TO ELECTRONIC DELIVERY, THE COMPANY WILL RESUME SENDING PAPER COPIES OF THE PLAN DOCUMENTS WITHIN TEN (10) BUSINESS DAYS OF ITS RECEIPT OF THE WITHDRAWAL NOTICE. EMPLOYEE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT HE OR SHE IS ABLE TO ACCESS, VIEW AND RETAIN AN E-MAIL ANNOUNCEMENT INFORMING EMPLOYEE THAT THE PLAN DOCUMENTS ARE AVAILABLE IN EITHER HTML, PDF OR SUCH OTHER FORMAT AS THE COMPANY DETERMINES IN ITS SOLE DISCRETION.

6

9.    Miscellaneous.

(a)    Mandatory Tax Withholding.    Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, at the time of exercise the Company will withhold from any shares deliverable upon exercise, in accordance with Section 11(d) of the Plan, the number of shares having a value nearest to, but not exceeding, the amount of income taxes, employment taxes or other withholding amounts required to be withheld under applicable local laws and regulations, and pay the amount of such withholding taxes in cash to the appropriate taxing authorities. Employee will be responsible for any taxes relating to the SARs and the exercise thereof not satisfied by means of such mandatory withholding.

(b)    Binding Agreement; Written Amendments.    This Agreement shall be binding upon the heirs, executors, administrators and successors of the parties. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the SARs, and supersedes any prior agreements or documents with respect to the SARs. No amendment or alteration of this Agreement which may impose any additional obligation upon the Company shall be valid unless expressed in a written instrument duly executed in the name of the Company, and no amendment, alteration, suspension or termination of this Agreement which may materially and adversely affect the rights of Employee under the SARs shall be valid unless expressed in a written instrument executed by Employee.

(c)    No Promise of Employment.    The SARs and the granting thereof shall not constitute or be evidence of any agreement or understanding, express or implied, that Employee has a right to continue as an employee of the Company for any period of time, or at any particular rate of compensation. Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Plan is discretionary in nature and limited in duration, and may be amended, cancelled, or terminated by the Company, in its sole discretion, at any time, provided, however that any outstanding SARs shall not be affected. The grant of stock SARs under the Plan is a one-time benefit and does not create any contractual or other right to receive a grant of stock SARs or benefits in lieu of stock SARs in the future. Future grants, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company, including, but not limited to, the timing of any grant, the number of SARs, vesting provisions and the exercise or base price.

(d)    Governing Law.    The validity, construction, and effect of this Agreement shall be determined in accordance with the laws (including those governing contracts) of the State of New York, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of laws, and applicable federal law. The SARs and the granting thereof are subject to the Company’s compliance with the applicable law of the jurisdiction of Employee’s employment.

(e)    Notices.    Any notice to be given the Company under this Agreement shall be addressed to the Company at 521 West 57th Street, New York, NY 10019, attention: Corporate Secretary, and any notice to the Employee shall be addressed to the Employee at Employee’s address as then appearing in the records of the Company.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS

The following Terms and Conditions apply to the Units granted to Grantee by INTERNATIONAL FLAVORS & FRAGRANCES INC. (the ‘‘Company’’), as specified in the Restricted Stock Units Agreement (of which these Terms and Conditions form a part). Certain terms of the Units, including the number of Units granted, vesting date(s) and settlement date, are set forth on the preceding pages.

1.    General.    The Units are granted to Grantee under the Company’s 2000 Stock Award and Incentive Plan (the ‘‘Plan’’), a copy of which, along with other documents constituting the ‘‘prospectus’’ for the Plan, have previously been delivered to Grantee or are being delivered to Grantee. All of the applicable terms, conditions and other provisions of the Plan are incorporated by reference herein. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement but not defined herein shall have the same meanings as in the Plan. If there is any conflict between the provisions of this document and mandatory provisions of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan govern. By accepting the grant of the Units, Grantee agrees to be bound by all of the terms and provisions of the Plan (as presently in effect or later amended), the rules and regulations under the Plan adopted from time to time, and the decisions and determinations of the Company’s Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the ‘‘Committee’’) made from time to time, provided that no such Plan amendment, rule or regulation or Committee decision or determination shall materially and adversely affect the rights of the Grantee with respect to outstanding Units.

2.    Account for Grantee.    The Company shall maintain a bookkeeping account for Grantee (the ‘‘Account’’) reflecting the number of Units then credited to Grantee hereunder as a result of such grant of Units.

3.    Nontransferability.    Until Units become settleable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, Grantee may not transfer Units or any rights hereunder to any third party other than by will or the applicable laws of descent and distribution, except for transfers to a Beneficiary or otherwise if and to the extent permitted by the Company and subject to the conditions under Section 11(b) of the Plan.

4.    Termination Provisions.    The following provisions will govern the vesting and forfeiture of the Units in the event of Grantee’s Termination of Service (as defined below), unless otherwise determined by the Committee (subject to Section 8(a) hereof):

(a)    Death or Disability.    In the event of Grantee’s death or Termination of Service due to Disability (as defined below), all of the Units, to the extent then outstanding but not previously vested, will vest and become non-forfeitable immediately, and such Units, together with any then-outstanding Units that previously became vested and non-forfeitable, will be settled as promptly as practicable thereafter if not previously settled.

(b)    Retirement.    In the event of Grantee’s Termination of Service due to Retirement (as defined below), the Units, to the extent outstanding and whether or not previously vested or otherwise forfeited, will continue to be outstanding (i.e., will not be forfeited and, in that respect, will be deemed vested) and will be settled at the time the Units would have become vested if Grantee had not Retired or earlier as provided under Section 4(a) or Section 6. Then outstanding Units that became vested and non-forfeitable prior to Retirement will be settled as promptly as practicable following Retirement, if not previously settled.

(c)    Other Terminations.    In the event of Grantee’s Termination of Service for any reason other than death, Disability, or Retirement, any then-outstanding Units not vested at the date of Termination of Service will be forfeited, and Units that became vested and non-forfeitable prior to Termination of Service will be settled promptly following Termination, if not previously settled.

(d)    Certain Definitions.    The following definitions apply for purposes of this Agreement:

(i)    ‘‘Disability’’ means Grantee’s physical or mental impairment which is expected to be of long-duration and which renders Grantee unable to perform his or her duties as a director. Determination of Disability will be in the sole discretion of the Board.

2

(ii)    ‘‘Retirement’’ means retirement after attaining age 62.

(iii)    ‘‘Termination of Service’’ means the event by which Grantee ceases to be a director of the Company, provided that such event constitutes a separation from service within the meaning of Treasury Regulation § 1.409A-1(h).

5.    Dividends and Adjustments.

(a)    Dividends.    No dividends or dividend equivalents will be credited or paid on any unvested Units. Units that, at the relevant dividend record date that occurs before the issuance of shares in settlement of Units, previously have been vested (i.e., Units deferred as to settlement under Section 6), shall be entitled to credits equivalent to dividends that would have been paid if the Units had been outstanding shares at such record date. The form and timing of such payments will be in the discretion of the Committee.

(b)    Adjustments.    The number of Units credited to Grantee’s Account and/or the property deliverable upon settlement of Units shall be appropriately adjusted, in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of Grantee’s rights with respect to Units in connection with, or to reflect any changes in the number and kind of outstanding shares of Common Stock resulting from, any corporate transaction or event referred to in the first sentence of Section 11(c) of the Plan (this provision takes precedence over Section 5(a) in the case of a large and non-recurring cash dividend or any non-cash dividend).

(c)    Risk of Forfeiture and Settlement of Units Resulting from Adjustments.    Units (and other property deliverable in settlement of Units) which directly or indirectly result from adjustments to a Unit granted hereunder shall be subject to the same risk of forfeiture as applies to the granted Unit and will be settled at the same time as the granted Unit.

6.    Deferral of Settlement; Compliance with Section 409A.    Terms relating to the settlement of Units shall comply with the requirements under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code (the ‘‘Code’’). Units will be subject to accelerated settlement under Section 9(a) of the Plan or otherwise upon a Change in Control only if the Change in Control constitutes a change in the ownership or effective control of the corporation or in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the corporation within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(v). Other provisions of this Agreement notwithstanding, under U.S. federal income tax laws and Treasury Regulations (including proposed regulations) as presently in effect or hereafter implemented, (i) if the timing of any distribution in settlement of Units would result in Grantee’s constructive receipt of income relating to the Units prior to such distribution, the date of distribution will be the earliest date after the specified date of distribution that distribution could occur under Treasury Regulation § 1.409A-3 and can be effected without resulting in such constructive receipt; and (ii) any rights of Grantee or retained authority of the Company with respect to Units hereunder shall be automatically modified and limited to the extent necessary so that Grantee will not be deemed to be in constructive receipt of income relating to the Units prior to the distribution and so that Grantee shall not be subject to any penalty under Section 409A. In this regard, the Company shall have no retained discretion to accelerate the settlement of the Units beyond that permitted under Code Section 409A without triggering any tax penalty.

7.    Other Terms Relating to Units.

(a)    Fractional Units and Shares.    The number of Units credited to Grantee’s Account shall include fractional Units, if any, calculated to at least three decimal places, unless otherwise determined by the Committee. Unless settlement is effected through a third-party broker or agent that can accommodate fractional shares (without requiring issuance of a fractional share by the Company), upon settlement of the Units Grantee shall be paid, in cash, an amount equal to the value of any fractional share that would have otherwise been deliverable in settlement of such Units.

(b)    Taxes.    Grantee shall be responsible for any income taxes and other taxes resulting from the grant, vesting or settlement of Units.

(c)    Statements.    An individual statement of each Grantee’s Account will be issued to Grantee at such times as may be determined by the Company. Such a statement shall reflect the number of Units credited to Grantee’s Account, transactions therein during the period covered by the statement, and other information deemed relevant by the Committee. Such a statement may be combined with or include information regarding other plans and compensatory arrangements for non-employee directors. Any statement containing an error shall not, however, represent a binding obligation to the extent of such error.

(d)    Grantee Consent.    By signing this Agreement, Grantee voluntarily acknowledges and consents to the collection, use, processing and transfer of personal data as described in this Section 7(d). Grantee is not obliged to consent to such collection, use, processing and transfer of personal data; however, failure to provide the consent may affect Grantee’s ability to participate in the Plan. The Company and its subsidiaries hold, for the purpose of managing and administering the Plan, certain personal information about Grantee, including Grantee’s name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social security number or other Grantee identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any shares of stock or directorships held in the Company, and details of all options or any other entitlement to shares of stock awarded, canceled, purchased, vested, unvested or outstanding in Grantee’s favor (‘‘Data’’). The Company and/or its subsidiaries will transfer Data among themselves as necessary for the purpose of implementation, administration and management of Grantee’s participation in the Plan and the Company and/or any of its subsidiaries may each further transfer Data to any third parties assisting the Company in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. These recipients may be located in the European Economic Area, or elsewhere throughout the world, such as the United States. Grantee authorizes them to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the purposes of implementing, administering and managing Grantee’s participation in the Plan, including any requisite transfer of such Data as may be required for the administration of the Plan and/or the subsequent holding of shares on Grantee’s behalf to a broker or other third party with whom Grantee may elect to deposit any shares acquired pursuant to the Plan. Grantee may, at any time, review Data, require any necessary amendments to it or withdraw the consents herein in writing by contacting the Company; however, withdrawing consent may affect Grantee’s ability to participate in the Plan.

(e)    Consent to Electronic Delivery.    Grantee hereby consents to electronic delivery of the Plan, the Prospectus for the Plan and other documents related to the Plan (collectively, the ‘‘Plan Documents’’). The Company will deliver the Plan documents electronically to Grantee by e-mail, by posting such documents on its intranet website or by another mode of electronic delivery as determined by the Company in its sole discretion. The Company will send to the Grantee an e-mail announcement when a new plan document is available electronically for Grantee’s review, download or printing and will provide instructions on where the plan document can be found. Unless otherwise specified in writing to the Company, Grantee will not incur any costs for receiving the plan documents electronically through the Company’s computer network. Grantee will have the right to receive paper copies of any plan document by sending a written request for a paper copy to the address specified in Section 8(e) hereof. Grantee’s consent to electronic delivery of the plan documents will be valid and remain effective until the earlier of (i) the termination of Grantee’s participation in the Plan and (ii) the withdrawal of Grantee’s consent to electronic delivery of the Plan documents. The Company acknowledges and agrees that Grantee has the right at any time to withdraw his or her consent to electronic delivery of the Plan documents by sending a written notice of withdrawal to the address specified in Section 8(e) hereof. If Grantee withdraws his or her consent to electronic delivery, the Company will resume sending paper copies of the Plan documents within ten (10) business days of its receipt of the withdrawal notice. Grantee acknowledges that he or she is able to access, view and retain an e-mail announcement informing Grantee that the Plan documents are available in either HTML, PDF or such other format as the company determines in sole discretion.

8.    Miscellaneous.

(a)    Binding Agreement; Written Amendments.    This Agreement shall be binding upon the heirs, executors, administrators and successors of the parties. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the Units, and supersedes any prior agreements or documents with respect thereto. No amendment or alteration of this Agreement which may impose any additional obligation upon the Company shall be valid unless expressed in a written instrument duly executed in the name of the Company, and no amendment, alteration, suspension or termination of this Agreement which may materially impair the rights of Grantee with respect to the Units shall be valid unless expressed in a written instrument executed by Grantee.

(b)    No Promise of Continued Service as Director.

(c)     Unfunded Plan.    Any provision for distribution in settlement of Grantee’s Account hereunder shall be by means of bookkeeping entries on the books of the Company and shall not create in Grantee any right to, or claim against any, specific assets of the Company, nor result in the creation of any trust or escrow account for Grantee. With respect to Grantee’s entitlement to any distribution hereunder, Grantee shall be a general creditor of the Company.

(d)    Governing Law.    THE VALIDITY, CONSTRUCTION, AND EFFECT OF THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS (INCLUDING THOSE GOVERNING CONTRACTS) OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS, AND APPLICABLE FEDERAL LAW.
