LUCENT TECHNOLOGIES INC. 2003 LONG TERM INCENTIVE PROGRAM
(“PLAN”)
 PERFORMANCE AWARD AGREEMENT

	Name
	    	    	    	Lucent HRID

	Performance Period
 October 1, XXXX through September 30, XXXX
	    	    	    	Issuance Date

	Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meanings as in the
Plan.

 

You have been granted, as of the Issuance Date set
forth above, a Performance Award in the amount of US$ 00 if all target performance levels during the Performance Period are achieved (the
“Target Award”). The Performance Period for this Performance Award begins October 1, XXXX and ends September 30, XXXX.

	1.
	 	Performance Award Amount. Except as provided
below, your Performance Award, if any, will be paid in cash following the close of the Performance Period. The Committee will determine the performance
criteria that will apply to each fiscal year included in the Performance Period. The amount of the Performance Award that will be paid to you shall
depend on the satisfaction of performance criteria during each fiscal year included in the Performance Period. The actual Award amount will be equal to
the sum of each fiscal year award amount where each fiscal year award amount is calculated as follows:

A x T/N x C/M,

where:

A = Actual performance criteria percentage achieved
for such fiscal year

T = Target Award amount subject to this Performance
Award

N = Number of fiscal years in the Performance Period
of this Performance Award

	C = 
	 	The number of calendar months (with any partial month considered
as a full month) in such fiscal year during which you were eligible for this Performance Award in accordance with section 3 below

M = number of calendar months covered by the Award
in such fiscal year

The determination of whether, and to what extent,
such criteria are satisfied, and the determination of the percentage, if any, of the Performance Award to be distributed to you, will be conclusively
determined by the Committee.

	2.	 	Termination of Employment.

	(a)  
	 	Except as provided below with respect to termination of
employment by reason of Company Action, death, Disability, Retirement, or immediately following a leave of absence as defined in the Officer Severance
Policy, upon your termination of employment with Lucent for any reason prior to the day on which the Performance Award, if any, is paid, your
Performance Award will be immediately forfeited and canceled in its entirety. You will not be eligible for any payment under this Award.

1

	(b)  
	 	In the event of the termination of your employment by reason of
Company Action, death or Disability during the Performance Period, no month following the month of your Company Action, death or Disability will be
considered an eligible month for purposes of the calculation in Section 1 above. Your Performance Award, if any, will be paid in cash following the
close of the fiscal year during which your termination of employment occurred, and you will not be eligible for payments under this award for any
subsequent fiscal year remaining in the Performance Period.

	(c)  
	 	In the event of the termination of your employment by reason of
Retirement during the Performance Period, no month following the month of your Retirement will be considered an eligible month for purposes of the
calculation in Section 1 above. Your Performance Award, if any, will be paid in cash following the close of the Performance Period. If your employment
terminates under circumstances constituting both a Company Action and Retirement, this Award will follow the provisions under paragraph (b) above for
termination of employment by reason of Company Action.

	(d)  
	 	In the event you are placed on a company initiated leave of
absence, as defined in the Officer Severance Policy, for reasons other than Cause, any months following the month of such event will not be considered
eligible months for purposes of the calculation in Section 1 above. Your performance award, if any, will be paid in cash following the close of the
Performance Period.

	(e)  
	 	In the event of the termination of your employment at any time
for Cause or for unsatisfactory performance as determined in accordance with the Company’s policy, this Award will be canceled. You will not be
eligible for any payment under this Award, including for fiscal years in the Performance Period that have been completed and for which an Award amount
has been determined.

	(f)  
	 	It shall not be considered a termination of your employment if
you (i) transfer between Lucent and any Affiliate or (ii) are placed on an approved leave of absence. Except in the event of a Change in Control or
unless otherwise determined by the Committee, it shall be considered a termination of your employment if your employer ceases to be Lucent or an
Affiliate.

	3.	 	Eligibility for Award.

	(a)  
	 	To be eligible for this Award, your job level with Lucent must
be a job level that is eligible for this Performance Award. If you are hired into, promoted into or demoted out of a job level that is then eligible
for this Performance Award, variable C (of section 1 above) will only include those months during which you held a job level that is eligible for this
Award. Your Performance Award, if any, will be paid in cash following the close of the Performance Period.

	(b)  
	 	Also for purposes of calculating your Performance Award, in the
event you are issued a subsequent agreement covering the same Performance Period but with a different Target Award, your eligibility for the Target
Award under this Award Agreement will be in effect through the end of the month prior to the Issuance Date of the subsequent agreement for the
Performance Period. The subsequent agreement for the Performance Period will be in effect as of the beginning of the month of its Issuance Date. Please
note that the Target Award for the subsequent agreement may be greater than or less than the Target Award in this Award Agreement. In any given month
during the Performance Period, only one Award Agreement will be in effect and the calculation in Section 1 of this Award Agreement will only be based
on one Target Award amount. Your Performance Award, if any, will be paid in cash following the close of the Performance Period.
