[Form as of 2/26/09]

THERMO FISHER SCIENTIFIC INC.

PERFORMANCE RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT

Granted Under 

[Name of Equity Incentive Plan]

1. Award of Restricted Stock Units.

     This agreement sets forth the terms and conditions of an award by Thermo Fisher Scientific
Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), on                     , 2009 (the “Award Date”) to
                                         (the “Participant”) of                      restricted stock units (the “Base Restricted
Stock Units”). Each restricted stock unit represents the right to receive one share of common
stock, $1.00 par value, of the Company (“Common Stock”) pursuant to the terms, conditions and
restrictions set forth in this Agreement and in the Company’s [Name of Equity Incentive Plan] (the
“Plan”). In addition to the Base Restricted Stock Units, the Participant may vest as to an
additional amount of restricted stock units (the “Incremental Restricted Stock Units”) up to 60% of
the amount of the Base Restricted Stock Units, also pursuant to the terms, conditions and
restrictions set forth in this Agreement and the Plan. The Base Restricted Stock Units and the
Incremental Restricted stock Units are together referred to in this Agreement as the “RSUs.” The
shares of Common Stock that are issuable upon vesting of the RSUs are referred to in this agreement
as Shares. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not otherwise defined shall have the same
meaning as in the Plan.

2. Vesting Schedule.

     Except as otherwise provided in paragraphs (b) through (d) of Section 3, the RSUs shall vest
in accordance with Schedule A attached hereto and incorporated herein; provided,
that on each vesting date referenced in Schedule A, the Participant is, and has been at all
times since the Award Date, an employee, officer or director of, or consultant or advisor to, the
Company or any other entity the employees, officers, directors, consultants, or advisors of which
are eligible to receive restricted stock awards under the Plan (an “Eligible Participant”).

3. Forfeiture.

     (a) Termination of Relationship with the Company. In the event that the Participant
ceases to be an Eligible Participant for any reason other than those set forth in paragraphs (b)
through (d) below after the First Vesting Date but before the Third Vesting Date, the RSUs that
have not previously vested shall be immediately forfeited to the Company. For the avoidance of
doubt and notwithstanding the provisions of [Section 9(b)(5)] of the Plan, if a Participant’s
employment with the Company terminates for any reason (and regardless of whether a Change in
Control Event has occurred) prior to the First Vesting Date, all RSUs shall be forfeited at the
time of employment termination.

 

 

     (b) Death or Disability. In the event that the Participant’s employment with the
Company or a Subsidiary is terminated by reason of death or “disability” (as defined below) after
the First Vesting Date but before the Third Vesting Date, the RSUs that have not previously vested
shall vest 100% upon the date of such death or disability. For the purposes of this Agreement, a
Participant shall be deemed to be “disabled” at such time as the Participant is receiving
disability benefits under the Company’s Long Term Disability Coverage, as then in effect.

     (c) Discharge by the Company other than for Cause. In the event that the
Participant’s employment with the Company is terminated by the Company other than for “Cause” (as
defined in the Plan), or by the Participant for “Good Reason”, in each case, within 18 months of a
Change in Control Event, after the First Vesting Date but before the Third Vesting Date, the RSUs
that have not previously vested shall vest 100% upon the effective date of such termination.

     (d) Retirement. If the Participant “retires” from the Company after the First Vesting
Date but before the Third Vesting Date, the RSUs that have not previously vested shall vest 100%
upon the effective date of such retirement, provided that the retirement date occurs at
least one year after the Award Date. For the purposes of this Agreement, a Participant shall be
deemed to have “retired” upon his or her resignation from employment with the Company either (i)
after the age of 55 and the completion of 10 continuous years service to the Company comprising at
least 20 hours per week or (ii) after the age of 60 and the completion of 5 continuous years
service to the Company comprising at least 20 hours per week, but only if such resignation results
in the occurrence of a separation from service (as defined for purposes of Section 409A of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”)).

4. Delivery of Shares

          (a) The Company shall deliver the Shares that become issuable upon the vesting of an RSU on a
Vesting Date (i) to the Participant as soon as administratively practicable or (ii) in the event
that the Participant’s employment with the Company is terminated by reason of death, to the
Participant’s estate as soon as administratively practicable, but in either event no later than 60
days after such Vesting Date.

          (b) The Company shall not be obligated to deliver Shares to the Participant unless the
issuance and delivery of such Shares shall comply with all relevant provisions of law and other
legal requirements including, without limitation, any applicable federal or state securities laws
and the requirements of any stock exchange upon which shares of Common Stock may then be listed.

5. Restrictions on Transfer.

     The Participant shall not sell, assign, transfer, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of,
by operation of law or otherwise (collectively “transfer”) any RSUs, or any interest therein,
except by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

6. Provisions of the Plan.

 

 

     This Agreement is subject to the provisions of the Plan, a copy of which is furnished to the
Participant with this Agreement.

7. Dividends.

     (a) If at any time during the period between the Award Date and the date that the RSU vests,
the Company pays a dividend or other distribution with respect to its Common Stock, including
without limitation a distribution of shares of the Company’s stock by reason of a stock dividend,
stock split or otherwise, then on the date the Shares issuable upon vesting of the RSU are
delivered, the Company shall pay the Participant the dividend or other distribution that would have
been paid on such Share if the Participant had owned such Shares during the period beginning on the
Award Date and ending on the respective Vesting Date. No dividend or other distribution shall be
paid with respect to RSUs that are forfeited.

     (b) Except as set forth in Section 7(a) above and in the Plan, neither the Participant nor any
person claiming under or through the Participant shall be, or have any rights or privileges of, a
stockholder of the Company in respect of the Shares issuable pursuant to the RSUs granted hereunder
until the Shares have been delivered to the Participant.

8. Withholding Taxes; No Section 83(b) Election.

     (a) The Participant expressly acknowledges that the delivery of Shares to the Participant will
give rise to “wages” subject to withholding. Unless the Participant provides notice to the Company
prior to the delivery of the Shares that the Participant will make payment to the Company on the
date of delivery to satisfy all required withholding taxes, the Participant hereby authorizes the
Company to hold back from the shares to be delivered pursuant to Section 4 of this Agreement of
that number of shares calculated to satisfy all such federal, state, local or other applicable
taxes required to be withheld in connection with such delivery of Shares; provided, however, that
the total tax withholding where Shares are being used to satisfy such tax obligations cannot exceed
the Company’s minimum statutory withholding obligations (based on minimum statutory withholding
rates for federal and state tax purposes, including payroll taxes, that are applicable to such
wages).

     (b) The Participant acknowledges that no election under Section 83(b) of the Code may be filed
with respect to this Award.

9. No Right To Employment or Other Status. The grant of an award of RSUs shall not be
construed as giving the Participant the right to continued employment or any other relationship
with the Company. The Company expressly reserves the right at any time to dismiss or otherwise
terminate its relationship with the Participant free from any liability or claim under the Plan or
this Agreement, except as expressly provided herein.

10. Conflicts With Other Agreements. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between
the terms of this Agreement and any employment, severance or other agreement between the Company
and the Participant, the terms of this Agreement shall govern.

 

 

11. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with
the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to any applicable conflicts of laws.

12. Unfunded Rights. The right of the Participant to receive Common Stock pursuant to this
Agreement is an unfunded and unsecured obligation of the Company. The Participant shall have no
rights under this Agreement other than those of an unsecured general creditor of the Company.

13. Compliance with Section 409A of the Code. If and to the extent any portion of any
payment under this Agreement to the Participant in connection with his or her employment
termination is determined to constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of
Section 409A of the Code and the Participant is a specified employee as defined in Section
409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, as determined by the Company in accordance with its procedures, by
which determination the Participant (through accepting the Award) agrees that he or she is bound,
such portion of the payment, compensation or other benefit shall not be paid before the day that is
six months plus one day after the date of “separation from service” (as determined under Code
Section 409A) (the “New Payment Date”), except as Code Section 409A may then permit. The aggregate
of any payments that otherwise would have been paid to the Participant during the period between
the date of separation from service and the New Payment Date shall be paid to the Participant in a
lump sum on such New Payment Date, and any remaining payments will be paid on their original
schedule.

     The Company makes no representations or warranty and shall have no liability to the
Participant or any other person if any provisions of or payments, compensation or other benefits
under this Agreement are determined to constitute nonqualified deferred compensation subject to
Code Section 409A but do not to satisfy the conditions of that section.

 

 

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement as of the day and year
first above written.

Exhibit 10.5

WATERS CORPORATION

1996 NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTOR DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN

AMENDED AND RESTATED EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 2008

 

 

1. Objective of the Plan.

     The Waters Corporation 1996 Non-Employee Director Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Plan”)
was established effective April 1, 1996 for the benefit of directors of Waters Corporation (the
“Company”) who are not employees of the Company or any of its subsidiaries. The Plan is hereby
amended and restated effective January 1, 2008. The purpose of this Plan is to offer
non-employee members of the Board of Directors of the Company the opportunity to defer receipt
of cash compensation to which they would otherwise be entitled for services rendered as
directors of the Company, as an incentive to their continued participation as such directors.

2. Definitions.

     As used herein, the following terms have the meanings hereinafter set forth unless the
context clearly indicates to the contrary:

     (a) “Account” shall mean the deferred Fees account established for a Participant
pursuant to Subparagraph 4(c).

     (b) “Board of Directors” shall mean the board of directors of the Company.

     (c) “Common Stock” shall mean shares of the common stock, par value $1.00 per share,
of the Company.

     (d) “Common Stock Unit” shall mean the bookkeeping entry representing the equivalent
of one share of Common Stock.

     (e) “Corporate Secretary” shall mean the person holding the position of Secretary of
the Company.

     (f) “Effective Date” shall mean April 1, 1996.

     (g) “Fees” shall mean all retainer, meeting and committee fees payable to a
non-employee director for service on the Board of Directors for any calendar quarter from
and after the Effective Date, before any reduction pursuant to this Plan.

     (h) “Fees Payment Date” shall mean the last business day for the Company of each
calendar quarter in which the Director’s Fees were earned.

     (i) “Participant” shall mean any member of the Board of Directors who is not also a
regular, salaried employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

     (j) “Sale of the Company” shall mean a merger of the Company with or into another
corporation constituting a change of control of the Company, a sale of all or substantially
all of the Company’s assets or a sale of a majority of the Company’s outstanding voting
securities, provided that such transaction constitutes a change of control for purposes of
Section 409A of the Code.

     (k) “Separation from Service” shall mean a Participant’s death, retirement or other
termination of association with the Company, provided that such separation constitutes a
separation from service for purposes of Section 409A of the Code.

 

 

     (l) “Stock Price” shall be the closing price of the Company’s Common Stock as reported
on the New York Stock Exchange Composite Tape or, if no such reported sale of the Common
Stock shall have occurred on such date, on the next preceding date on which there was such
a reported sale.

3. Participation.

     All members of the Board of Directors who are not also regular salaried employees of the
Company or any of its subsidiaries shall participate in the Plan.

4. Deferral of Fees.

     (a) Deferral Election.

     (i)  With respect to Fees otherwise payable for services performed on or after January
1, 2005, a Participant may elect to defer receipt of all (but not less than all) of his or
her Fees by filing the appropriate form with the Company by December 31 of the calendar
year prior to the calendar year in which the Fees will be earned.

     (ii)  A person who first becomes a Director during a calendar year may elect to defer
any Fees payable solely for services performed during the remainder of the calendar year
after submission of his or her deferral election, by submitting such election not later
than the thirtieth (30th) day following the commencement of the Director’s initial term as
a non-employee director of the Company. For this purpose, Fees payable for a service period
which begins prior to, and ends subsequent to, the submission of a Director’s initial
election under this Subparagraph 4(a)(ii) shall be treated as solely for services performed
after submission only to a pro rata extent, based on the ratio of the number of the days in
the relevant service period after submission to the number of the days in the entire
service period. The deferral deadline provided in this Subparagraph 4(a)(ii) shall not be
applicable to any Director except following his or her initial eligibility to participate
under this Plan or, if earlier, under any other nonqualified deferred compensation plan of
the Company or any entity treated as a single employer with the Company under Sections
414(b) or (c) of the Code in which he or she is eligible to participate other than as an
employee and which is an account balance plan allowing the deferral of compensation at the
election of the Director (each, an “Aggregated Plan”). An Aggregated Plan shall not
be taken into account for purposes of Subparagraph 4(a), however, after the Director ceased
to be eligible to defer compensation thereunder (other than through the accrual of
earnings), provided either (i) all amounts due the Director under the Aggregated Plan have
been paid to him or her, or (ii) he or she has not been eligible to defer compensation
thereunder (other than through the accrual of earnings) for a period of at least 24 months.

     (iii)  Any deferral election under this Subparagraph 4(a) is irrevocable during any
calendar year for which it is in effect and may only be amended in accordance with
Subparagraph 4(b)(ii) below.

     (b) Period of Deferral.

 

 

     (i) With respect to amounts deferred before January 1, 2005, and subject to
Subparagraph 4(h), a Participant may elect to defer receipt of Fees until (1) a
specified date at least six (6) months in the future or (2) cessation of the
Participant’s service as a member of the Board of Directors.

     (ii) With respect to amounts deferred on or after January 1, 2005, and subject to
Subparagraph 4(h), a Participant may elect to defer receipt of Fees until (1) a specified
future date (but no earlier than the first day of the second year following the year of
deferral) or (2) Separation from Service. A Participant may only make a change to his or
her election if such change is made at least 12 months prior to the originally scheduled
date of first payment and such election delays payment at least five years from the
originally scheduled payment date. A Participant may not elect to accelerate receipt of
Fees previously deferred.

     (c) Deferred Fees Account. There shall be established an Account in the Participant’s
name on the books of the Company for each Participant electing to defer Fees pursuant to this
Paragraph 4.

     (d) Investment of Deferrals. In the election form filed with the Corporate Secretary the
Participant shall specify whether the deferred Fees are to be credited to his or her Account in
U.S. dollars or Common Stock Units.

     (e) Amounts Credited to Accounts.

     (i) Common Stock Units.

     If the Participant elects his or her Fees to be credited in Common Stock Units, such
amounts shall be credited to his or her Account in the following manner. On the Fees
Payment Date to which the deferral applies, the amount deferred shall be converted into a
number of Common Stock Units by dividing the amount of Fees payable by the average Stock
Price of the Company’s Common Stock for the calendar quarter ending on the Fees Payment
Date. The quotient, which shall be expressed in whole or fractional Common Stock Units to
the nearest one/one hundredth (1/100th), shall be credited to the Participant’s
Account as of such date.

     Whenever cash dividends are paid with respect to shares of Common Stock, the
Participant’s Account shall be credited on the payment date of such dividend with
additional Common Stock Units (including fractional units to the nearest one/one hundredth
(1/100th)) equal in value to the amount of the cash dividend paid on a single
share of Common Stock multiplied by the number of Common Stock Units (including fractional
units) credited to a Participant’s Account as of the date of record for dividend purposes.
For purposes of crediting dividends, the value of a Common Stock Unit shall be the Stock
Price as of the payment date of the dividend.

     The number of Common Stock Units credited to the Participant’s Account shall be
appropriately adjusted and modified upon the occurrence of any stock split, stock dividend
or stock consolidation affecting the Common Stock. In the event of a merger, consolidation
or an acquisition involving more than 50% of the issued and outstanding shares of Common
Stock, the Board of Directors shall have the authority to amend the Plan to provide for the
conversion of Common Stock Units credited to Participants’ Accounts into units equal to
shares of stock of the resulting or acquiring company (or a

 

 

related company), as appropriate, if such stock is publicly traded or, if not, into cash of
equal value on the date of merger, consolidation or acquisition. If pursuant to the
preceding sentence cash is credited to Participants’ Accounts, income shall be credited
thereon from the date such cash is received to the date of distribution at the rate
determined pursuant to Subparagraph 4(e)(ii). If units representing publicly traded stock
of the resulting or acquired company (or a related company) are credited to Participants’
Accounts, dividends shall be credited thereto in the same manner as dividends are credited
on Common Stock Units credited to such Accounts.

     (ii) U.S. Dollars.

     If the Participant elects for his or her Fees to be credited in U.S. Dollars, the
Account of a Participant will be credited with the U.S. Dollar amount of the Participant’s
deferrals as of the Fees Payment Date. Interest shall be credited thereon from the date
such Fees are credited to the date determined in accordance with Subparagraph 4(f) below at
a reasonable rate of interest as determined in accordance with procedures to be established
by the Committee.

     (f) Distribution of Deferral Account. Subject to Subparagraph 4(g) distributions of a
Participant’s Account under the Plan shall be made upon the earliest to occur of the following:

     (i) if a Participant has elected to defer his or her Fees to a specified date in the
future, payment shall be as of such date and shall be made or shall commence, as the case
may be, within thirty (30) days after the date specified;

     (ii) if a Participant has elected to defer his or her Fees until cessation of the
Participant’s service as a member of the Board of Directors or Separation from Service, as
applicable, payment shall be as of such date and shall be made or shall commence, as the
case may be, no later than the earlier of (a) the 30th day following the Fees Payment Date
for the calendar quarter in which occurs the Participant’s cessation or Separation from
Service or (b) December 31 of the calendar year in which occurs the Participant’s cessation
or Separation from Service; and

     (iii) notwithstanding the elections made pursuant to Subparagraph 4(b), in the event
of a Sale of the Company prior to the distribution of a Participant’s Account, the
Participant shall be paid the balance credited to such Participant’s Account, prior to the
consummation of the Sale of the Company in the manner designated on such Participant’s
deferral election form, and in the event of the death of the Participant prior to the
distribution of his or her Account hereunder, the balance credited to such Participant’s
Account as of the date of his or her death shall be paid, as soon as reasonably possible
thereafter, in a single distribution to the Participant’s beneficiary or beneficiaries
designated on such Participant’s deferral election form (or, if no such election or
designation has been made, then to the Participant’s estate).

     (g) Timing of Distribution to Satisfy Applicable Law. Notwithstanding Subparagraph 4(f),
the Board of Directors may delay any distribution of amounts deferred hereunder if it
reasonably anticipates that the making of the distribution will violate Federal securities laws
or other applicable laws until the earliest date that the Board of Directors reasonably
anticipates that the making of such distribution will not cause such a violation.

 

 

     (h) Form of Payment.

     (i) To the extent Fees have been credited to a Participant’s Account in U.S. Dollars,
the Participant may elect to have his or her Account under the Plan paid in a single
distribution or in up to three (3) approximately equal annual installments. In the event a
Participant has elected to receive annual installment payments, each such payment shall be
calculated by dividing the value on the date the distribution occurs of that portion of the
Participant’s Account which is in cash by the number of annual installments remaining as of
such distribution date.

     (ii) To the extent a Participant’s Account is deemed invested in Common Stock Units,
such Common Stock Units shall be converted to and paid to the Participant in the form of
Common Stock as of the relevant date determined in accordance with Subparagraph 4(f) above.
To the extent deemed invested in units of any other stock, such units shall similarly be
converted to such other stock and distributed in accordance with this Subparagraph. To the
extent invested in a medium other than Common Stock Units or other units, each such
distribution hereunder shall be in the medium credited to the Participant’s Account.
Distribution shall be made in the form of a single distribution of the number of whole
shares of Common Stock equal to the number of Common Stock Units credited to the
Participant’s Account as of the relevant date, plus cash for any fractional share of Common
Stock, determined in accordance with Subparagraph 4(f) above.

     (iii) Each Participant or beneficiary agrees that prior to any distribution under the
Plan, he or she will make such representations and execute such documents as are deemed by
the Board of Directors to be necessary to comply with applicable laws.

5. Administration of the Plan.

     The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Committee”) shall administer
the Plan; provided, however, that at any time and on any one or more occasions the Board of
Directors may itself exercise any of the powers and responsibilities assigned the Committee
under the Plan and when so acting shall have the benefit of all of the provisions of the Plan
pertaining to the Committee’s exercise of its authorities hereunder. The Committee shall have
plenary authority in its discretion to interpret the Plan; to prescribe, amend and rescind
rules and regulations relating to it; to determine the terms of Fees deferral agreements
executed and delivered under the Plan, including such terms and provisions as shall be
requisite in the judgment of the Committee to conform to any change in any law or regulation
applicable thereto; and to make all other determinations deemed necessary or advisable for the
administration of the Plan. The Committee’s determination on the foregoing matters shall be
conclusive.

6. Termination and Amendment of the Plan.

     The Committee may at any time terminate the Plan or make such modification or amendment of
the Plan as it shall deem advisable; provided, however, that no amendment may be made, without
the approval by the holders of Common Stock, which would (i) materially increase the benefits
accruing to Participants under the Plan, (ii) increase the maximum number of shares reserved
for issuance under the Plan, or (iii) amend the requirements as to the class of persons
eligible to participate in the Plan and, provided further,

 

 

that no modification or amendment of the Plan shall reduce any amount already credited to a
Participant’s Account as of the effective date of such modification or amendment.

7. Stock Reserved for the Plan.

     Two hundred thousand (200,000) shares of authorized but unissued Common Stock are reserved
for issuance and may be issued pursuant to the terms of the Plan.

     In lieu of such unissued shares, the Company may, in its discretion, transfer to
Participants under the terms of the Plan treasury shares, reacquired shares or shares bought in
the market for the purposes of the Plan, provided that (subject to the provisions of the next
paragraph) the total number of shares which may be granted or sold pursuant to awards granted
under the Plan shall not exceed 200,000.

     In the event of any changes in the outstanding Common Stock by reason of stock dividends,
split-ups, spin-offs, recapitalizations, mergers, consolidations, combinations or exchanges of
shares and the like occurring after June 10, 1999, the aggregate number and class of shares
available under the Plan shall be appropriately adjusted.

8. No Interest in Assets.

     No Participant or any other person shall have any interest in any specific asset of the
Company by reason of any amount credited to him or her hereunder, nor any right to receive any
distribution under the Plan except as and to the extent expressly provided in the Plan. There
shall be no funding of any benefits which may become payable hereunder and Participants shall
be treated as general unsecured creditors of the Company. No trust shall be created by the
execution or adoption of this Plan or be required to be created in connection herewith. Any
amounts which become payable hereunder shall be paid from the general assets of the Company.
Nothing in the Plan shall be deemed to give any member of the Board of Directors any right to
participate in the Plan, except in accordance with the provisions of the Plan.

9. Restriction Against Assignment.

     The Company shall pay all amounts payable hereunder only to the person or persons
designated by the Plan as Participant or beneficiary, as appropriate, and not to any other
person or corporation. No part of a Participant’s Account shall be liable for the debts,
contracts or engagement of any Participant, his or her beneficiaries or successors in interest,
nor shall it be subject to execution by levy, attachment or garnishment or by any other legal
or equitable proceeding, nor shall any such person have any right to alienate, anticipate,
commute, pledge, encumber or assign any benefits or payments hereunder in any manner
whatsoever.

10. Government Regulations.

     The Plan, and the deferral of Fees and purchase of Common Stock thereunder, and the
obligation of the Company to issue, sell and deliver shares, as applicable, under the Plan,
shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules and regulations.

     This Plan is intended to comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended (the “Code”) and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder

 

 

(collectively, “Section 409A”). However, by participating in this Plan each Participant
acknowledges and agrees that he or she bears the entire risk of any adverse Federal and State
tax consequences and penalty taxes in the event any payment pursuant to this Plan is deemed to
be subject to and not compliant with Section 409A, and that no representations have been made
to Participants relating to the tax treatment of any payment pursuant to this Plan under
Section 409A of the Code and the corresponding provisions of any applicable State income tax
laws. For purposes of Section 409A, the right to a series of installment payments under this
Plan shall be treated as a right to a single lump sum distribution as of the date of the first
installment payment.

11. Governing Law.

     This Plan shall be governed by, construed, and administered under the internal laws of the
State of Delaware.

12. Adoption.

     This amended and restated Plan is dated January 1, 2008 and was adopted by the Board of
Directors on December 10, 2008.
