 EXHIBIT A 

to 
 RESTRICTED SHARES
AWARD AGREEMENT 
 1. Plan Governs. The Award and this Agreement are subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan. The Plan is
incorporated in this Agreement by this reference. All capitalized terms used in this Agreement have the meaning set forth in the Plan unless otherwise defined in this Agreement. By executing this Agreement, you acknowledge receipt of a copy of the
Plan and the prospectus covering the Plan and you acknowledge that the Award is subject to all the terms and provisions of the Plan. You further agree to accept as binding, conclusive and final all decisions and interpretations by the Plan Committee
with respect to any questions arising under the Plan. 
 2. Payment. The Restricted Shares are awarded to you without requirement of
payment. 
 3. Transfer Restrictions. Until the restrictions lapse, the Restricted Shares may not be assigned, alienated, pledged,
attached, sold or otherwise transferred or encumbered by you, and any such purported assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance shall be void and unenforceable; provided that the designation of a beneficiary pursuant
to the Plan shall not constitute an assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance. Certificates will be transferred to you only as provided in paragraph 4 of this Exhibit A. 

4. Record of Ownership. The number of your Restricted Shares with respect to which the restrictions have lapsed will be released from
restrictions on the books of the Company. Delivery may be effected on an uncertificated basis, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law or the rules of the New York Stock Exchange. To the extent the Shares are delivered in uncertificated form,
those Shares shall be deposited directly with Charles Schwab Trust Company, or such other agent designated by the Company, and the Company may utilize electronic or automated methods to transfer the Shares. Until the restrictions lapse, your
Restricted Shares either will be evidenced by certificates held by or on behalf of the Company (in which case you will sign and deliver to the Company a stock power relating to the Restricted Shares so that the Company may cancel the Restricted
Shares in the event of forfeiture), or the Restricted Shares will be reflected in a book-entry form or other account maintained by the Company, as determined by the Company. 

5. Rights as Stockholder. During the Period of Restriction you will have all of the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect
to the Restricted Shares subject to the provisions of paragraph 3 of this Exhibit A. 
 6. Lapse of Restrictions Upon Death, Disability
or Change of Control. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the Restricted Shares will longer be subject to restrictions upon the first of the following events to occur: 

(a) Your Termination of Affiliation by reason of your death; 

(b) Your Termination of Affiliation by reason of your Disability; or 

(c) A Change of Control. 
 7.
Performance Based Lapse of Restrictions. Notwithstanding paragraph 6 of this Agreement to the contrary, a portion of the Restricted Shares as set forth in the Award Agreement shall vest and no longer be subject to restrictions if the actual
EPS for an applicable performance period as set forth in the Award Agreement is greater than or equal to the target EPS goal set forth in the Agreement for such period, but only if you remain continuously employed by the Company or an Affiliate from
the Grant Date through the date the Committee certifies that the performance measures are satisfied for the relevant performance period. 

  
 3 

 For this purpose, EPS means the sum of the quarterly Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share reported
by the Company for the applicable performance period. Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share excludes lease termination costs, debt retirement and exchange costs, the impacts of foreign exchange rate fluctuations, the impacts of changes in accounting
principles, and other special one-time adjustments. Determination by the Committee or its designee shall be final and conclusive on all parties, but shall be based on relevant objective information or financial data. 

8. Acceleration of Vesting. The Committee may at any time or times in its discretion accelerate the vesting of some or all of your
Restricted Shares by specifying a date, other than what is provided in this Agreement, on which the Period of Restriction ends and such Shares will no longer be subject to restrictions. Any such Shares that become vested under this paragraph 8 will
not be forfeited under paragraph 9 of this Exhibit A. 
 9. Forfeiture. If you have a Termination of Affiliation prior to any of the
vesting events specified in paragraph 6 or 7 of this Exhibit A, then you will forfeit all of your Restricted Shares upon such Termination of Affiliation. In the absence of an event specified in paragraph 6, you will forfeit that number of your
Restricted Shares that have not become fully vested under paragraph 7. All of your rights to and interest in any Restricted Shares that are forfeited under this paragraph 9 will terminate upon forfeiture. You agree to immediately repay to the
Company all dividends, if any, paid in cash or in stock with respect to your forfeited Restricted Shares. 
 10. Tax Withholding. As
of any date that a required tax withholding liability (“Required Withholding”) occurs, you must remit the minimum amount necessary to satisfy the Required Withholding. The Company will not deliver Shares to you or release the restrictions
on Shares under this Agreement unless you remit (or in appropriate cases agree to remit) or otherwise provide for the Required Withholding as described below. 

11. No Right to Employment. Nothing in this Agreement shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company or an Affiliate
to terminate your employment or service at any time, nor confer upon you the right to continue in the employ of the Company or an Affiliate. 

12. Right of Recovery. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs 6 and 7 of this Exhibit A or any other provisions of this
Restricted Shares Award Agreement to the contrary, the Company may recover from you any amount required to be recovered under the rules of any exchange on which the Company’s Shares are registered and any amount the Committee determines is
appropriate under the Company’s policies regarding recovery of incentive compensation, as such policies may be in effect from time to time. 

13. Notices. Any notice to be given under the terms of this Agreement to the Company shall be addressed to the Company in care of its
Corporate Secretary. Any notice to be given to you shall be addressed to you at the address listed in the Company’s records. By written notice referencing this paragraph of this Agreement, either party may designate a different address for
notices. Any notice under this Agreement to the Company shall become effective upon receipt by the Company. Any notice under this Agreement to you will be deemed to have been delivered to you when delivered in person or when deposited in the United
States mail, addressed to you at your address on the shareholder records of the Company, or such other address as you have designated under this paragraph. 

14. Tax Consultation. Your signature on this Agreement means that you understand that you may incur tax consequences as of any date
that a number (which may be all or part) of your Restricted Shares would no longer be forfeited if you were to have a Termination of Affiliation on such date. You agree to 

  
 4 

 
consult with any tax consultants you think advisable in connection with tax issues regarding your Restricted Shares Award and you acknowledge that you are not relying, and will not rely, on the
Company or any Affiliate for any tax advice. Please see the Plan regarding Code Section 83(b) elections. 
 15. Amendment. The
Company reserves the right to amend the Plan at any time. The Committee reserves the right to amend this Agreement at any time. 
 16.
Severability. If any part of this Agreement is declared by any court or governmental authority to be unlawful or invalid, such unlawfulness or invalidity shall not serve to invalidate any part of this Agreement not declared to be unlawful or
invalid. Any part so declared unlawful or invalid shall, if possible, be construed in a manner which gives effect to the terms of such part to the fullest extent possible while remaining lawful and valid. 

17. Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware other than its laws respecting choice of law.

 18. Headings. Headings are provided herein for convenience only and are not to serve as a basis for interpretation or construction
of this Agreement. 
 19. No Waiver. The failure of Company in any instance to exercise any of its rights granted under this
Agreement or the Plan shall not constitute a waiver of any other rights that may arise under this Agreement.
