 What happens to my stock options and
restricted stock units (RSUs) if I no longer work for McDonald’s? 
  

	•	 	 Retirement With At Least 12 Months Notice and Execution of Non-Compete Agreement 

 If you retire from employment with the Company and you (i) provide at least 12 months advance notice of your retirement to the officer in charge of the Global
Compensation Department in Oak Brook, Lisa Emerson, and such notice is accepted by the officer, and (2) execute and deliver to the Company a non-competition agreement satisfactory to the Company the following rules apply. 
 Stock Options. Options that are either exercisable on the date of your termination or that are scheduled to become exercisable within two (2) years of that
date can be exercised immediately or at any time within two (2) years following your termination (but not after the original expiration date of the grant). If you violate the non-competition agreement following your termination, all of your
stock options will immediately terminate and will no longer be exercisable. 
 RSUs. You will vest in a pro-rata portion of your RSUs, based on the
formula provided in the Global Prospectus, and, unless the RSUs are subject to performance-based vesting, those vested RSUs will be paid out in shares or cash, at the Company’s discretion, as soon as administratively practicable after
termination of employment, except that if you were an Officer (as defined in the Global Prospectus), your payment will be deferred until as soon as administratively practicable following the first to occur of the originally scheduled vesting date,
the six-month anniversary of your termination of employment, or your death. If the RSUs are subject to performance-based vesting, they will be paid out in shares or cash, at the Company’s discretion, as soon as administratively practicable
after the originally scheduled vesting date, in the same amount, if any, that would have been paid to you based on actual performance had you remained employed through the originally scheduled vesting date but subject to the proration noted above in
accordance with the formula provided in the Global Prospectus. 
  

	•	 	 Termination As a Result of Death or Disability 

 If your employment with the Company ends because of death or Disability, the following rules apply.

exercisable at any time for three (3) years following termination, regardless of the original expiration date of the options. However, in no event may any option be exercised after the fifteenth anniversary of the grant date. 
 RSUs. If you terminate employment because of death or Disability before your RSUs vest, they will, unless the award is subject to performance-based vesting,
immediately vest and be paid out in shares or in cash, at the Company’s discretion, as soon as is administratively practicable after termination of employment, except that if you were an Officer (as defined in the Global Prospectus) and your
termination is due to Disability but you are not disabled within the meaning of Section 409A, your payment will be deferred until as soon as administratively practicable following the first to occur of the originally scheduled vesting date, the
six-month anniversary of your termination of employment, or your death. If your RSUs are subject to performance-based vesting and you die or terminate employment because of Disability before your RSUs vest, they will be paid out in shares or in
cash, at the Company’s discretion, as soon as is administratively practicable after the originally scheduled vesting date, in the same amount, if any, that would have been paid to you based on actual performance had you remained employed
through the originally scheduled vesting date. 
  

	•	 	 Termination For Cause 

 If your employment with
the Company is terminated for Cause (generally, any termination based on an act or acts involving dishonesty, fraud, illegality or moral turpitude), your unexercised stock options and unvested RSUs will be terminated immediately.

 “FIRST GRANT” 
 AMERICAN WATER WORKS COMPANY, INC. 
 2007
OMNIBUS EQUITY COMPENSATION PLAN 
 RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT GRANT 
 This RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT GRANT, dated as of
                             (the “Date of Grant”), is delivered by American Water
Works Company, Inc. (the “Company”) to                              (the
“Participant”). 
 RECITALS 
 WHEREAS, in connection with the initial public offering of the shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.01 per share, (the “Company Stock”), the Committee (as defined in the American Water
Works Company, Inc. 2007 Omnibus Equity Compensation Plan) has determined that, in accordance with the terms of the Participant’s letter, dated August 27, 2007, the Participant’s contingent cash award will be converted to an equity
award (the “Equity Award”) for shares of Company Stock; 
 WHEREAS, the Equity Award is comprised of two separate grants, a
nonqualified stock option and a restricted stock unit grant; and 
 WHEREAS, the Committee has determined that the restricted stock unit
portion of the Equity Award granted to the Participant shall be issued under the American Water Works Company, Inc. 2007 Omnibus Equity Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) and the terms and conditions of such restricted stock unit shall
be memorialized in this Grant. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, the parties to this Grant, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:

 1. Grant of Restricted Stock Units. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Grant and the Plan, the Company hereby grants to the
Participant                          units (the “Restricted Stock Units”), which is equivalent to 175% of
the Participant’s target award. Each unit (a “Unit”) shall be a phantom right and shall be equivalent to one share of Company Stock on the applicable Redemption Date (as defined below). 
 2. Restricted Stock Unit Account. The Company shall establish and maintain a Restricted Stock Unit account as a bookkeeping account on its records (the
“Restricted Stock Unit Account”) for the Participant and shall record in such Restricted Stock Unit Account the number of Restricted Stock Units granted to the Participant. The Participant shall not have any interest in any fund or
specific assets of the Company by reason of this grant or the Restricted Stock Unit Account established for the Participant. 
 3. Vesting.

 (a) Except as provided in subparagraphs (b), (c), (d) or (e) below, in order to become vested in the Restricted Stock Units the
Participant must continue to be employed by, or 

 
providing service to, the Employer (as defined in the Plan) from the Date of Grant through January 1, 2010; provided, however, that the number of Units
that shall become vested on January 1, 2010 (the “Service Date”) shall be determined based on the satisfaction of the performance goals set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Performance Goals”). The
Committee shall certify the level of achievement of the Performance Goals, which certification shall occur as soon as administratively practicable after January 1, 2009, but not later than ninety (90) days following January 1, 2009,
(the “Certification Date”). Any portion of the Restricted Stock Unit that does not become vested because of the failure to fully satisfy the Performance Goals shall be forfeited as of the Certification Date and the Participant shall
not have any rights with respect to the vesting or the redemption of the portion of the Restricted Stock Unit that has become forfeited. 
 (b) If at any time prior to the Service Date the Participant’s employment or service with the Employer is terminated on account of death or Total Disability (as defined below), the Participant or the Participant’s beneficiary, as
applicable, shall become vested in the Restricted Stock Units as a result of the Participant’s termination for death or Total Disability; provided, however, that the number of Units that shall become vested shall be determined based on the
satisfaction of the Performance Goals. No vesting of the Units shall occur until the Committee has certified the level of achievement of the Performance Goals, which certification shall occur on the Certification Date. Any portion of the Restricted
Stock Unit that does not become vested because of the failure to fully satisfy the Performance Goals shall be forfeited as of the Certification Date and the Participant or the Participant’s beneficiary, as applicable, shall not have any rights
with respect to the vesting or the redemption of the portion of the Restricted Stock Unit that has become forfeited. For purposes of this Grant, the term “Total Disability” shall mean that the Participant has been determined to be
totally disabled by the Social Security Administration. 
 (c) If at any time prior to the Service Date the Participant’s employment or
service with the Employer is terminated on account of Normal Retirement (as defined below), the Participant shall become vested in the Restricted Stock Units as a result of the Participant’s termination for Normal Retirement; provided, however,
that the number of Units that shall become vested shall be determined based on the satisfaction of the Performance Goals and such number of Units that shall become vested shall be pro rated, with such pro ration determined by taking the total number
of Units subject to the Restricted Stock Unit that become vested based on the satisfaction of the Performance Goals, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of whole months that the Participant was employed by, or providing
service to, the Employer from January 1, 2007 to the date on which the Participant’s employment or service with the Employer terminated on account of Normal Retirement (with the month in which the Participant terminating counting as a full
month) and the denominator of which is thirty-six (36). No vesting of the Units shall occur until the Committee has certified the level of achievement of the Performance Goals, which certification shall occur on the Certification Date. Any portion
of the Restricted Stock Unit that does not become vested because of the failure to fully satisfy the Performance Goals, along with the pro rata portion of the Units that do not become vested as described above, shall be forfeited as of the
Certification Date and the Participant shall not have any rights with respect to the vesting or the redemption of the portion of the Restricted Stock Unit that has become forfeited. For purposes of this Grant, the term “Normal
Retirement” shall mean, at the time of the Participant’s termination of employment or service with the Employer, 

  

 -2- 

 
that the Participant has attained age 62 and been employed or provided service with the Employer for at least five (5) years. 
 (d) If at any time prior to the Service Date the Participant’s employment or service with the Employer terminates for any reason other than death,
Total Disability or Normal Retirement, all of the Units subject to the Restricted Stock Unit shall be immediately forfeited and the Participant shall not have any rights with respect to the vesting or the redemption of any portion of the Restricted
Stock Unit. 
 (e) If at any time prior to the Service Date, but while the Participant is employed by or providing service to the Employer, a
Change of Control (as defined below) occurs, then the Restricted Stock Unit shall become vested as of the date of the Change of Control (the “Change of Control Date”); provided, however, that the number of Units that shall become
vested as of the Change of Control Date shall be determined based on the satisfaction of the Performance Goals as of the (i) date of the Change of Control, if the Change of Control occurs prior to the Certification Date, with such criteria
adjusted using actual performance through the most recent reporting period prior to the Change of Control as compared to the forecast, or (ii) Certification Date, if the Certification Date occurs prior to the date of the Change of Control. No
vesting of the Units shall occur until the Committee has certified the level of achievement of the Performance Goals, which certification shall occur on the Certification Date or the Change of Control Date, if earlier. Any portion of the Restricted
Stock Unit that does not become vested because of the failure to fully satisfy the Performance Goals, as adjusted pursuant to this subparagraph, shall be forfeited as of the Certification Date or Change of Control Date, if earlier, and the
Participant shall not have any rights with respect to the vesting or the redemption of the portion of the Restricted Stock Unit that has become forfeited. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Change of Control” shall mean as such term
is defined in the Plan, except that a Change of Control shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of this Agreement unless the event constituting the Change of Control constitutes a change in the ownership or effective control of the
Company, or in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Company, within the meaning of section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and its corresponding regulations. 
 4. Redemption. Unless an election is made pursuant to Paragraph 5 below, the Restricted Stock Units that become vested pursuant to Paragraph 3
above shall be redeemed by the Company on: (i) the Service Date, or as soon as administratively practicable thereafter, but not later than thirty (30) days following the Service Date, if the Participant continues to be employed by, or
provide service to the Employer, from the Date of Grant to the Service Date; (ii) the Certification Date, or as soon as administratively practicable thereafter, but not later than thirty (30) days following the Certification Date, if the
Participant terminates employment or service with the Employer for death, Total Disability or Normal Retirement on or prior to the Certification Date, (iii) the date on which the Participant terminates employment or service with the Employer on
account of death, Total Disability or Normal Retirement, or as soon as administratively practicable thereafter, but not later than thirty (30) days following such termination of employment or service with the Employer, if the Participant
terminates employment or service with the Employer for death, Total Disability or Normal Retirement after the Certification Date, but prior to the Service Date; or (iv) the Change of Control Date, if earlier than the Service Date (collectively,
the “Redemption Date”). On the Redemption Date (or, if 

  

 -3- 

 
applicable, the Deferred Date, as defined in Paragraph 5 below), all Restricted Stock Units that have become vested pursuant to Paragraph 3 will be redeemed
and converted to an equivalent number of shares of Company Stock, and the Participant shall receive a single sum distribution of such shares of Company Stock, which shall be issued under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Change of
Control does not constitute a permitted change in control event under section 409A of the Code, then the Redemption Date for the Restricted Stock Units shall not be on the occurrence of the Change of Control, but instead shall be the date described
in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above, as applicable, as if no Change of Control occurred, or, if elected, the Deferred Date (as defined below). All redemptions pursuant to this Paragraph 4 shall be deemed as a separate payment for purposes
of section 409A of the Code. 
 5. Deferrals. 
 (a) No later than December 31, 2008, the Participant may make an irrevocable election to defer the Redemption Date of any portion of, or all of, the Restricted Stock Units that vest, to a date that occurs after the Redemption Date by
completing the deferral election form provided to the Participant by the Committee, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B or as subsequently modified to comply with the requirements of section 409A of the Code; provided, however, that if the
Redemption Date occurs at any time during the 2008 calendar year, the Participant’s deferral election pursuant to this Paragraph 5(a) shall not become effective. Any such election shall be made in accordance with section 409A of the Code and
any corresponding guidance and regulations issued under section 409A of the Code. 
 (b) After December 31, 2008, the Participant may
make an irrevocable election to defer the Redemption Date (or further defer the Deferred Date (as defined below), if applicable) of any of the Restricted Stock Units that vest to a later date, provided that (i) the election shall not take
effect until at least twelve (12) months after the date on which the election is made, (ii) the new Redemption Date cannot be earlier than five (5) years from the original Redemption Date under Paragraph 4 above (or five
(5) years from the previously applicable Deferred Date, if a subsequent deferral of a Deferred Date is being made), and (iii) the election must be made no less than twelve (12) months prior to the date of the Redemption Date (twelve
(12) months prior to the previously applicable Deferred Date, if a subsequent deferral of a Deferred Date is being made). To defer the Redemption Date, the Participant must complete the deferral election form provided to the Participant by the
Committee, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B or as subsequently modified to comply with the requirements of section 409A of the Code. Any such election shall be made in accordance with section 409A of the Code and any corresponding
guidance and regulations issued under section 409A of the Code. 
 (c) If a Redemption Date is delayed one or more times pursuant to this
Paragraph 5, the new Redemption Date shall be referred to as the “Deferred Date.” All redemptions pursuant to this Paragraph 5 shall be deemed as a separate payment for purposes of section 409A of the Code. 
 6. Dividend Equivalents. Until the Redemption Date (or the Deferred Date, if elected), if any dividends are declared with respect to the shares of Company Stock,
the Company shall credit to a dividend equivalent account (the “Dividend Equivalent Account”) the value of the dividends that would have been distributed if the Restricted Stock Units credited to the 

  

 -4- 

 
Participant’s Restricted Stock Unit Account at the time of the declaration of the dividend were shares of Company Stock. On the Redemption Date (or the
Deferred Date, if applicable), the Company shall pay to the Participant a lump sum cash payment equal to the value of the dividends created to the Participant’s Dividend Equivalent Account; provided, however, that any dividends that were
credited to the Participant’s Dividend Equivalent Account that are attributable to Units that have been forfeited as provided in Paragraph 3 above shall be forfeited and not payable to the Participant. No interest shall accrue on any dividend
equivalents credited to the Participant’s Dividend Equivalent Account. Each cash payment pursuant to this Paragraph 6 shall be deemed as a separate payment for purposes of section 409A of the Code. 
 7. Change of Control. Except as set forth in Paragraph 3(e) of this Grant, the provisions set forth in the Plan applicable to a Change of Control shall apply to
the Restricted Stock Units, and, in the event of a Change of Control, the Committee may take such actions as it deems appropriate pursuant to the Plan and is consistent with the requirements of section 409A of the Code. 
 8. Acknowledgment by Participant. By accepting this Grant, the Participant acknowledges that with respect to any right to redemption or distribution pursuant to
this Grant, the Participant is and shall be an unsecured general creditor of the Company without any preference as against other unsecured general creditors of the Company, and the Participant hereby covenants for himself or herself, and anyone at
any time claiming through or under the Participant not to claim any such preference, and hereby disclaims and waives any such preference which may at any time be at issue, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. The Participant also

rights to benefits under this Grant and the Plan, and agrees that all such determinations and decisions of the Committee shall be binding on the Participant, his or her beneficiaries and any other person having or claiming an interest under this
Grant and the Plan on behalf of the Participant. 
 9. Restrictions on Issuance or Transfer of Shares of Company Stock. 
 (a) The obligation of the Company to deliver shares of Company Stock upon the redemption of the Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to the condition
that if at any time the Committee shall determine in its discretion that the listing, registration or qualification of the shares of Company Stock upon any securities exchange or under any state or federal law, or the consent or approval of any
governmental regulatory body is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the issuance of shares of Company Stock, the shares of Company Stock may not be issued 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 Committee. The issuance of shares of Company Stock and the payment of cash to the Participant pursuant to this Grant is subject to
any applicable taxes and other laws or regulations of the United States or of any state having jurisdiction thereof. 
 (b) As a condition to
receive any shares of Company Stock on the Redemption Date (or the Deferred Date, if applicable), the Participant agrees:

tax-qualified retirement plans, and time-based restricted stock, to meet or exceed [300% of the Participant’s salary, if the Participant is a Management Level 1 employee] or [200% of the Participant’s salary, if the
Participant is a Management Level 2 employee] or [100% of the Participant’s salary, if the Participant is a Management Level 3 employee].

provided or made at the time specified herein or as elected by the Participant, then such redemption or distribution shall be provided in full at the earliest time thereafter when such sanctions cannot be imposed. Notwithstanding anything herein to
the contrary, the Committee may, without the Participant’s consent, amend this Grant or any election by a Participant to comply with the requirements of section 409A of the Code to the extent the Committee determines, in the sole discretion,
that such amendments are necessary. 
 (b) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, if any of the payments under this
Agreement are deemed as deferred compensation subject to the requirements of section 409A of the Code and such amounts are payable to the Participant upon “separation from service” (within the meaning of section 409A(a)(2)(a)(i) of the
Code and its corresponding regulations) from the Employer, then if at the time of the Participant’s separation 

  

 -7- 

 
from service the Participant is a “specified employee” (as such term is defined in section 409A(2)(B)(i) of the Code and its corresponding
regulations) as determined by the Company (or any successor thereto) in its sole discretion in accordance with its specified employee determination policy, then all payments to the Participant pursuant to this Agreement shall be postponed for a
period of six months following the Participant’s separation from service from the Employer. The postponed amounts shall be paid to the Participant in a lump sum within thirty (30) days after the date that is six (6) months following
the Participant’s separation from service from the Employer, and any amounts payable to the Participant after the expiration of such six (6) month period under this Agreement shall continue to be paid to the Participant in accordance with
the terms of this Agreement. If the Participant dies during such six-month period and prior to the payment of the postponed amounts hereunder, the amounts delayed on account of section 409A of the Code shall be paid to the personal representative of
the Participant’s estate within sixty (60) days after the Company receives notice of the Participant’s death, and any amounts not delayed shall be paid to the personal representative of the Participant’s estate in accordance with
