EXHBIIT 10.26

Form of Change of Control Agreement between each of Dwight Gibson and Jose Larios and SPX FLOW, Inc.

[Date]

Dear [  ]
SPX FLOW, Inc. (the “Company”) recognizes that your contribution to its growth and success will be substantial and desires to assure your continued employment.  In this regard, the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) recognizes that, as is the case with many publicly held corporations, the possibility of a Change of Control (as defined in Section 2, below) may exist and that such possibility, and the uncertainty and questions that it may raise among management, may result in the departure or distraction of management personnel to the detriment of the Company and its shareholders.
The Board has determined that appropriate steps should be taken to reinforce and encourage the continued attention and dedication of members of the Company’s management, including you, to their assigned duties without distraction in the face of potentially disruptive circumstances arising from the possibility of a Change of Control.
Further, it is the intent of the Board in adopting this agreement (the “Agreement”) to assure the Company and its shareholders (i) of continuity of management in the event of any actual or threatened Change of Control and (ii) that key executive employees of the Company will be able to evaluate objectively whether a potential Change of Control is in the best interests of the shareholders.  
In order to induce you to remain in the employ of the Company and to advance the interests of the Company and its shareholders by providing you with appropriate financial protection, the Board agrees that you shall receive the severance benefits set forth in this Agreement in the event that you separate from service due to a Change of Control as specifically provided in the remainder of this Agreement.  For purposes of this Agreement, your employment with the Company shall be deemed to be terminated when you have a “Separation from Service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”), and references to your termination of employment shall be deemed to refer to a Separation from Service.
		
	1.
	Term of Agreement.  This Agreement will become effective on [Date] (the “Effective Date”), and shall continue in effect through the second (2nd) anniversary of the Effective Date (the “Term”); provided, however, that this Agreement shall remain in effect and the Term shall be extended automatically from year to year thereafter for one (1) additional year unless, not later than six (6) months prior to the second (2nd) anniversary of the Effective Date, or any subsequent anniversary of the Effective Date, the Company gives written notice to you that it has elected not to extend this Agreement.  Notwithstanding anything in this Section 1 to the contrary, if a Change of Control occurs during the Term of this Agreement, the Term of this Agreement shall be extended automatically to the second (2nd) anniversary of the Change of Control. 

		
	2.
	Change of Control of the Company.  No benefits will be payable under the terms of this Agreement unless a Change of Control of the Company has occurred.  A “Change of Control” shall be deemed to have occurred if:

		
	(a)
	Any “Person” (as defined below), excluding for this purpose the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, any employee benefit plan of the Company or of any subsidiary of the Company, or any entity organized, appointed or established for or pursuant to the terms of any such plan that acquires beneficial ownership of common shares of the Company, is or becomes the “Beneficial Owner” (as defined below) of twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the common shares of the Company then outstanding; provided, however, that no Change of Control shall be deemed to have occurred as the result of an acquisition of common shares of the Company by the Company which, by reducing the number of shares outstanding, increases the proportionate beneficial ownership interest of any Person to twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the common shares of the Company then outstanding, but any subsequent increase in the beneficial ownership interest of such a Person in common shares of the Company shall be deemed a Change of Control; and provided further that if the Board determines in good faith that a Person who has become the Beneficial Owner of common shares of the Company representing twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the common shares of the Company then outstanding has inadvertently reached that level of ownership interest, and if such Person divests as promptly as practicable a sufficient number of shares of the Company so that the Person no longer has a beneficial ownership interest in twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the common shares of the Company then outstanding, then no Change of Control shall be deemed to have occurred.  For purposes of this Section 2(a), the following terms shall have the meanings set forth below:

		
	(i)
	“Person” shall mean any individual, firm, limited liability company, corporation or other entity, and shall include any successor (by merger or otherwise) of any such entity.

		
	(ii)
	“Affiliate” and “Associate” shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in Rule 12b-2 of the General Rules and Regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

		
	(iii)
	A Person shall be deemed the “Beneficial Owner” of and shall be deemed to “beneficially own” any securities:

(A)    that such Person or any of such Person’s Affiliates or Associates beneficially owns, directly or indirectly (determined as provided in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act);
(B)    that such Person or any of such Person’s Affiliates or Associates has (1) the right to acquire (whether such right is exercisable immediately or only after the passage of time) pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or understanding (other than customary agreements with and between underwriters and selling group members with respect to a bona fide public offering of securities), or upon the exercise of conversion rights, exchange rights, rights, warrants or options, or otherwise; provided, however, that a Person shall not be deemed the Beneficial Owner of, or to beneficially own, securities tendered pursuant to a tender or exchange offer made by or on behalf of such Person or any of such Person’s Affiliates or Associates until such tendered securities are accepted for purchase or exchange; or (2) the right to vote pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or understanding; provided, however, that a Person shall not be deemed the Beneficial Owner of, or to beneficially own, any security if the agreement, arrangement or understanding to vote such security (a) arises solely from a revocable proxy or consent given to such Person in response to a public proxy or consent solicitation made pursuant to, and in accordance with, the applicable rules and regulations promulgated under the Exchange Act and (b) is not also then reportable on Schedule 13D under the Exchange Act (or any comparable or successor report); or
(C)    that are beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by any other Person with which such Person or any of such Person’s Affiliates or Associates has any agreement, arrangement or understanding (other than customary agreements with and between underwriters and selling group members with respect to a bona fide public offering of securities) for the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting (except to the extent contemplated by the proviso to Section 2(a)(iii)(B)(2) above) or disposing of any securities of the Company.
Notwithstanding anything in this definition of Beneficial Ownership to the contrary, the phrase “then outstanding,” when used with reference to a Person’s beneficial ownership of securities of the Company, shall mean the number of such securities then issued and outstanding together with the number of such securities not then actually issued and outstanding that such Person would be deemed to own beneficially hereunder. 
		
	(b)
	During any period of two (2) consecutive years (not including any period prior to the execution of this Agreement), individuals who at the beginning of such two (2)-year period constitute the Board and any new director or directors (except for any director designated by a person who has entered into an agreement with the Company to effect a transaction described in Section 2(a), above, or Section 2(c), below) whose election by the Board or nomination for election by the Company’s shareholders was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds of the directors then still in office who either were directors at the beginning of the period or whose election or nomination for election was previously so approved, cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board; or

		
	(c)
	The consummation of: (i) a plan of complete liquidation of the Company, (ii) an agreement for the sale or disposition of the Company or all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, (iii) a plan of merger or consolidation of the Company with any other corporation, or (iv) a similar transaction or series of transactions involving the Company (any transaction described in parts (i) through (iv) of this Section 2(c) being referred to as a “Business Combination”), in each case unless after such a Business Combination the shareholders of the Company immediately prior to the Business Combination continue to own at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the voting securities of the new (or continued) entity immediately after such Business Combination, in substantially the same proportion as their ownership of the Company immediately prior to such Business Combination.

Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, a “Change of Control” shall not include any transaction described in Section 2(a) or (c), above, where, in connection with such transaction, you and/or any party acting in concert with you substantially increase your, his or its, as the case may be, ownership interest in the Company or a successor to the Company (other than through conversion of prior ownership interests in the Company and/or through equity awards received entirely as compensation for past or future personal services). 
		
	3.
	Definitions.  The following definitions shall be used in determining whether, under the terms of Section 4 hereof, you are entitled to receive Accrued Benefits and/or Severance Benefits:

		
	(a)
	Disability.  For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” shall mean, in the written opinion of a qualified physician selected by the Company, you are by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than twelve (12) months, (x) unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity, or (y) receiving income replacement benefits for a period of not less than three (3) months under a Company disability plan.

		
	 (b)
	Retirement.  “Retirement” shall mean your voluntary separation from service (other than for Good Reason, as defined below) at a time after you have reached age sixty-five (65).

		
	(c)
	Cause.  “Cause” shall mean (i) your willful and continued failure to substantially perform your duties with the Company (other than any such failure resulting from Disability or occurring after issuance by you of a Notice of Termination for Good Reason), after a demand for substantial performance is delivered to you that specifically identifies the manner in which the Company believes that you have not substantially performed your duties, and after you have failed to resume substantial performance of your duties on a continuous basis within fourteen (14) calendar days after receiving such demand, (ii) you willfully engage in conduct that is demonstrably and materially injurious to the Company, monetarily or otherwise, or (iii) your having been convicted of (or pleaded nolo contendere to) a felony that impairs your ability substantially to perform your duties with the Company.  In addition, your employment shall be deemed to have terminated for Cause if, within 12 months after your employment has terminated, facts and circumstances are discovered that would have justified a termination for Cause.  

The Company shall make any decision that Cause exists in good faith.  For purposes of this Agreement, no act or failure to act on your part shall be considered “willful” unless it is done, or omitted to be done, by you in bad faith or without reasonable belief that your action or omission was in the best interests of the Company or any successor or affiliate.  Any act, or failure to act, on your part, based upon authority given pursuant to a resolution duly adopted by the Board or based upon the advice of counsel for the Company or any successor or affiliate shall be conclusively presumed to be done, or omitted to be done, in good faith and in the best interests of the Company or any successor or affiliate thereof.
		
	(d)
	Good Reason.  You shall be entitled to terminate your employment for Good Reason.  For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean, without your express written consent, the occurrence within two (2) years following a Change of Control of the Company of any one (1) or more of the following:

		
	(i)
	A material reduction or alteration in your duties and responsibilities, or the status of your position from those in effect on the day prior to the Change of Control;  

		
	(ii)
	A material reduction by the Company in your base salary or in your most recent annual target incentive award opportunity as in effect on the date hereof or as the same shall be increased from time to time;

		
	(iii)
	The Company’s requiring you to be based at a location in excess of fifty (50) miles from the location where you are currently based;

		
	(iv)
	The failure by the Company to continue in effect the Company’s  employee benefit plans, policies, practices or arrangements in which you participate prior to the Change of Control, unless an equitable arrangement (embodied in an ongoing substitute or alternative plan) to provide similar benefits has been made with respect to such plan(s); or the failure by the Company to continue your participation therein (or in such substitute or alternative plan) on substantially the same basis, both in terms of the amount of benefits provided and the level of your participation relative to other participants, as existed as of the time of the Change of Control;  

		
	(v)
	The failure of the Company to obtain a satisfactory agreement from any successor to the Company to assume and agree to perform this Agreement, as contemplated in Section 5 hereof; and

		
	(vi)
	Any purported termination by the Company of your employment that is not effected pursuant to a Notice of Termination which substantially satisfies the requirements of Section 3(f), below, and for purposes of this Agreement, no such purported termination shall be effective.  

Your right to separate from service pursuant to this Section 3(d) shall not be affected by your suspension due to Disability.  Your continued employment shall not constitute a waiver of your rights with respect to any circumstance constituting Good Reason hereunder, except that you must provide notice to the Company of the existence of the condition described in above within a period not to exceed ninety (90) calendar days of the initial existence of the condition, and the Company will have a period of at least thirty (30) calendar days following the notice during which it may remedy the condition. 
		
	(e)
	Notice of Termination.  Any termination by the Company for Cause or by you for Good Reason shall be communicated by Notice of Termination to the other party hereto.  For purposes of this Agreement, a “Notice of Termination” shall mean a written notice that shall indicate the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon and shall set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of your employment under the provisions so indicated.

		
	(f)
	Date of Termination.  “Date of Termination” shall mean the date specified in the Notice of Termination where required (but not less than thirty (30) calendar days following delivery of the Notice of Termination, except that termination for Cause may be effective immediately) or in any other case upon ceasing to perform services to the Company; provided that if within twenty (20) calendar days after any Notice of Termination one party notifies the other party that a dispute exists concerning the termination, the Date of Termination shall be the date finally determined to be the Date of Termination, either by written agreement of the parties or by a binding and final arbitration decision.  In the event that a dispute exists concerning the Date of Termination, you shall continue to receive your full compensation (including participation in all benefit and insurance plans in which you were participating) in effect when the notice giving rise to the dispute was given, until the Date of Termination is finally determined.  In such event, you will be required to reimburse the Company for all compensation received beyond the finally determined Date of Termination either by direct cash reimbursement within thirty (30) calendar days of resolving the conflict or by appropriately reducing your remaining benefits to be received under the terms of this Agreement.

		
	(g)
	Earned Bonus Amount.  For any year prior to the year during which a Change of Control occurs, your “Earned Bonus Amount” means your actual bonus for that year.  For the year during which a Change of Control occurs, your “Earned Bonus Amount” means your total potential bonus for the year as determined under the SPX FLOW Executive Annual Bonus Plan or SPX FLOW Bonus Plan, as applicable, or applicable successor bonus plan (the “Bonus Plan”), according to the business performance metric achieved, and prorated to reflect your length of service during the Bonus Plan year.  For any year following the year during which a Change of Control occurs, your “Earned Bonus Amount” means the greater of (i) your actual bonus for the year prior to the year during which the Change of Control occurs and (ii) your total potential bonus for the year as determined under the Bonus Plan, according to the business performance metric achieved, and prorated to reflect your length of service during the Bonus Plan year.

4.    Compensation Upon Separation from Service Following a Change of Control.
		
	(a)
	Accrued Benefits.  In the event that you separate from service for any reason during the Term of this Agreement following a Change of Control of the Company, you shall receive your Accrued Benefits through the Date of Termination to the extent unpaid.  For purposes of this Agreement, your “Accrued Benefits” shall include the following:

		
	(i)
	All base salary for the time period ending with your Date of Termination, at the rate in effect at the time Notice of Termination is given or on the Date of Termination if no Notice of Termination is required;

		
	(ii)
	A bonus payment equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the greater of (A) your target bonus for the year in which the Date of Termination occurs (the “Year of Termination”), prorated based upon the ratio of the number of months (full credit for a partial month) you were employed during that bonus year to the total months in that bonus year, and (B) your Earned Bonus Amount for the Year of 

Termination, calculated as if the Date of Termination were the end of that year for purposes of the Bonus Plan;
		
	(iii)
	A cash equivalent of all unused vacation to which you were entitled through your Date of Termination;

		
	(iv)
	Reimbursement for any and all monies advanced in connection with your employment for reasonable and necessary expenses incurred by you on behalf of the Company for the time period ending with your Date of Termination (as evidenced and determined in accordance with applicable Company policy); and

		
	(v)
	All other amounts to which you are entitled under any compensation or benefit plan, program, practice or policy of the Company in effect as of the Date of Termination.

		
	(vi)
	Subject to Sections 4(e) and 4(f), the payments provided for in Section 4(a)(i), (ii), (iii), and (iv) above shall be made in a lump sum cash payment as soon as administratively practicable (but in no event more than thirty (30) calendar days) following your Date of Termination.  If the total amount of annual bonus is not determinable on that date, the Company shall pay the amount of bonus that is determinable and the remainder shall be paid in a lump sum cash payment at the time such bonuses are paid generally and in all events no later than the two and one-half (21⁄2) months following the end of the calendar year in which the bonus is earned.

		
	(b)
	Severance Benefits.  In the event that you separate from service during the Term of this Agreement following a Change of Control, unless your separation from service is (i) because of your death, Disability, or Retirement; (ii) a termination by the Company for Cause; or (iii) a termination by you other than for Good Reason, you shall receive, in addition to your Accrued Benefits, the Severance Benefits.  For purposes of this Agreement, your “Severance Benefits” shall include the following:

		
	(i)
	Your annual base salary at the rate in effect immediately prior to the Change of Control of the Company or, if greater, at the rate in effect at the time Notice of Termination is given, or on the Date of Termination if no Notice of Termination is required, multiplied by two (2);

		
	(ii)
	An amount equal to two (2) times the greatest of (A) the highest of your Earned Bonus Amounts for the three (3) years immediately preceding the Year of Termination or (B) your target bonus under the Bonus Plan for the Year of Termination or (C) your Earned Bonus Amount for the Year of Termination, calculated as if the Date of Termination were the end of that year for purposes of the Bonus Plan;

		
	(iii)
	For a two (2) -year period after your Date of Termination, the Company will arrange to provide to you the same group health care coverage you had prior to your Date of Termination, at the Company’s expense, which includes, but is not limited to, hospital, surgical, medical, dental, and dependent coverages, provided you timely apply and you and your dependents remain eligible for the coverage, and provided further that such continued coverage does not result in adverse tax or monetary penalties to the Company (or other applicable adverse effects to the Company based on coverage discrimination rules then in effect).  Nothing herein shall be construed to extend the period of time over which COBRA continuation coverage shall be provided to you or your dependents beyond that mandated by law (that is, the coverage under this Section 4(b)(iii) will be concurrent with, and not consecutive to, the coverage period mandated by law).  Health care benefits otherwise receivable by you pursuant to this Section 4(b)(iii) shall be discontinued to the extent comparable benefits are actually received by you from a subsequent employer (including an employer of your spouse) during the two (2) -year period following your Date of Termination, and any such benefits actually received by you shall be reported to the Company.  To the extent the provision of health care benefits receivable by you pursuant to this Section 4(b)(iii) extends beyond the COBRA continuation period, such benefits will be provided in accordance with the requirements of Code Section 409A and Treasury Regulation §1.409A-3(i)(1)(iv) (or any similar or successor provisions);

		
	(iv)
	For a two (2) -year period after your Date of Termination, the Company will arrange to provide to you, at the Company’s expense, life insurance coverage in the amount of two (2) times your base salary in effect at your Date of Termination and, at the end of the two (2)-year period, for the remainder of your life the Company will provide to you life insurance coverage in the amount of your base salary in effect at your Date of Termination provided that such coverage will be provided in accordance with the 

requirements of Code Section 409A and Treasury Regulation §1.409A-3(i)(1)(iv) (or any similar or successor provisions); 
		
	(v)
	Each stock option that you have been granted by the Company and that is not yet vested shall become immediately vested and exercisable and shall continue to be exercisable for the lesser of (A) two (2) years following your Date of Termination or (B) the time remaining until the originally designated expiration date, unless a longer exercise period is provided for in the applicable plan or award agreement;  

		
	(vi)
	Any contractual restrictions placed on shares of restricted stock or other equity-based compensation awards that you have been awarded pursuant to the SPX FLOW Stock Compensation Plan, as amended, and any similar or successor equity compensation plan adopted or maintained by the Company, shall lapse as of your Date of Termination;

		
	(vii)
	In the event that a Change of Control occurs and payments are made under this Section 4(b), and a final determination is made by legislation, regulation, ruling, or court decision directed to you or the Company that the aggregate amount of any payments made to you under this Agreement and any other agreement, plan, program, or policy of the Company in connection with, on account of, or as a result of, such Change of Control (the “Total Payments”) will be subject to an excise tax under the provisions of Code Section 4999, or any successor section thereof (“Excise Tax”), the Total Payments shall be reduced (beginning with those amounts that are exempt from Code Section 409A and then from amounts that are subject to Code Section 409A, beginning with the amounts scheduled to be paid furthest from the first date of the Total Payments) so that the maximum amount of the Total Payments (after reduction) shall be one dollar ($1.00) less than the amount that would cause the Total Payments to be subject to the Excise Tax; provided, however, that the Total Payments shall only be reduced to the extent that the after-tax value of amounts received by you after application of the above reduction would exceed the after-tax value of the Total Payments received without application of such reduction.  For this purpose, the after-tax value of an amount shall be determined taking into account all federal, state, and local income, employment, and excise taxes applicable to such amount.  In making any determination as to whether the Total Payments would be subject to an Excise Tax, consideration shall be given to whether any portion of the Total Payments could reasonably be considered, based on the relevant facts and circumstances, to be reasonable compensation for services rendered (whether before or after the consummation of the applicable Change of Control).  

		
	(A)
	In the event that upon any audit by the Internal Revenue Service, or by a state or local taxing authority, of the Total Payments, a change is formally determined to be required in the amount of taxes paid by, or Total Payments made to, you, appropriate adjustments will be made under this Agreement such that the net amount that is payable to you after taking into account the provisions of Code Section 4999 will reflect the intent of the parties as expressed in this Section 4(b)(vii).  You shall notify the Company in writing of any claim by the Internal Revenue Service that, if successful, would require payment of an Excise Tax or an additional Excise Tax on the Total Payments (a “Claim”).  Such notification shall be given as soon as practicable but no later than ten (10) business days after you are informed in writing of such Claim and shall apprise the Company of the nature of such Claim and the date on which such Claim is requested to be paid.  You shall not pay such Claim prior to the expiration of the thirty (30)-calendar day period following the date on which you give such notice to the Company (or such shorter period ending on the date that any payment of taxes with respect to such Claim is due).  If the Company notifies you in writing prior to the expiration of such period that it desires to contest such Claim, you shall: (1) give the Company any information reasonably requested by the Company relating to such Claim, (2) take such action in connection with contesting such Claim as the Company shall reasonably request in writing from time to time, including, without limitation, accepting legal representation with respect to such Claim by an attorney reasonably selected by the Company, (3) cooperate with the Company in good faith in order to contest effectively such Claim, and (4) permit the Company to participate in any proceedings relating to such Claim; provided, however, that the Company shall bear and pay directly all costs and expenses (including additional interest and penalties) incurred in connection with such contest and shall indemnify and hold you harmless, on an after-tax basis, for any Excise Tax, additional Excise Tax, or income tax (including interest and penalties with respect thereto) imposed as a result of such representation and payment of costs and expenses.  Without limitation on the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, the Company, at its sole 

option, may pursue or forgo any and all administrative appeals, proceedings, hearings and conferences with the taxing authority in respect of such Claim and may, at its sole option, either direct you to pay the tax claimed and sue for a refund or contest the Claim in any permissible manner, and you agree to prosecute such contest to a determination before any administrative tribunal, in a court of initial jurisdiction and in one (1) or more appellate courts, as the Company shall determine, provided, however, that if the Company directs you to pay such Claim and sue for a refund, the Company shall advance the amount of such payment to you on an interest-free basis or, if such an advance is not permissible under applicable law, pay the amount of such payment to you as additional compensation, and shall indemnify and hold you harmless, on an after-tax basis, from any Excise Tax, additional Excise Tax, or income tax (including interest or penalties with respect thereto) imposed with respect to such advance or additional compensation; and further provided that any extension of the statute of limitations relating to payment of taxes for the taxable year of you with respect to which such contested amount is claimed to be due is limited solely to such contested amount.  The Company shall reimburse any fees and expenses provided for under this Section 4(b)(vii) on or before the last day of your taxable year following the taxable year in which the fee or expense was incurred, and in accordance with the other requirements of Code Section 409A and Treasury Regulation § 1.409A-3(i)(1)(v) (or any similar or successor provisions).
		
	(B)
	If, after your receipt of an amount advanced or paid by the Company pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph, you become entitled to receive any refund with respect to such Claim, you shall (subject to the Company’s compliance with the requirements of the immediately preceding paragraph) promptly pay to the Company the amount of such refund (together with any interest paid or credited thereon after taxes applicable thereto).  If, after your receipt of an amount advanced by the Company pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph, a determination is made that you shall not be entitled to any refund with respect to such Claim and the Company does not notify you in writing of its intent to contest such denial of refund prior to the expiration of thirty (30) calendar days after such determination, then such advance shall be forgiven and shall not be required to be repaid.

		
	 (viii)
	To the full extent permitted by law, the Company shall indemnify you (including the advancement of expenses) for any judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement and reasonable expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by you in connection with the defense of any lawsuit or other claim to which you are made a party by reason of being or having been an officer, director or employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries.  In addition, you will be covered by director and officer liability insurance to the maximum extent that such insurance maintained by the Company from time to time covers any officer or director (or former officer or director) of the Company.  Any costs and expenses that are to be paid or reimbursed pursuant to the preceding provisions of this Section 4(b)(viii) shall be reimbursed in accordance with the requirements of Code Section 409A and Treasury Regulation §1.409A-3(i)(1)(iv) (or any similar or successor provisions);

		
	(ix)
	The Company will pay the expense of outplacement services from a provider reasonably selected by you and acceptable to the Company, up to a maximum of $35,000.  Such outplacement services must be incurred by you no later than the first anniversary of your separation from service;

		
	(x)
	To the extent that you prevail in any contest or dispute with respect to any interpretation, enforcement or defense of your rights under this Agreement by litigation or otherwise, the Company shall pay to you or reimburse you for all legal fees and expenses incurred by you as a result of such contest or dispute (including all such fees and expenses, if any, incurred in contesting or disputing any separation from service or in seeking to obtain or enforce any right or benefit provided by this Agreement or in connection with any tax audit or proceeding to the extent attributable to the application of Code Section 4999 to any payment or benefit provided hereunder, as described in Section 4(b)(vii) above), provided that such fees and expenses that are to be paid or reimbursed pursuant to the preceding provisions of this Section 4(b)(x) shall be reimbursed in accordance with the requirements of Code Section 409A and Treasury Regulation §1.409A-3(i)(1)(iv) (or any similar or successor provisions); and

		
	(xi)
	Subject to Sections 4(e) and 4(f) and except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the payments provided in Sections 4(b)(i) and (ii) shall be made in a lump sum cash payment as soon as administratively practicable (but in no event more than thirty (30) calendar days) following your separation from service.  If the total amount of annual bonus is not determinable on that date, the Company shall pay the amount of bonus that is determinable and the remainder shall be paid in a lump 

sum cash payment at the time such bonuses are paid generally and in all events no later the two and one-half (21⁄2) months following the end of the calendar year in which the bonus is earned.
		
	(c)
	Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, if a Change of Control occurs and you separate from service other than for Cause within six (6) months prior to the date on which the Change of Control occurs and you assert in writing to the Board within thirty (30) calendar days following the Change of Control that such separation from service (i) was at the request of a third party who had taken steps reasonably calculated to effect the Change of Control, (ii) otherwise arose in connection with or anticipation of the Change of Control, or (iii) would not have occurred if the Change of Control were not anticipated, then for all purposes of this Agreement your separation from service shall be deemed to have occurred following the Change of Control and any payments owed to you hereunder as a result of such Change of Control shall be paid to you within sixty (60) calendar days following the Change of Control, unless the Board determines in good faith that your separation from service (i) was not at the request of a third party who had taken steps reasonably calculated to effect the Change of Control, (ii) did not otherwise arise in connection with or anticipation of the Change of Control, and (iii) would have occurred if the Change of Control were not anticipated.  

		
	(d)
	You shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment provided for in this Section 4 by seeking other employment or otherwise, nor shall the amount of any payment provided for in this Section 4 be reduced by any compensation earned by you as the result of employment by another employer after your Date of Termination, or otherwise, with the exception of a reduction in your insurance benefits as provided in Section 4(b)(iii), and as provided in Section 13.

		
	(e)
	If, at the time you become entitled to your Accrued Benefits and your Severance Benefits under this Section 4, you are a “specified employee” (as defined under Code Section 409A), then, notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the following provisions shall apply.

		
	(i)
	None of your Accrued Benefits and Severance Benefits considered deferred compensation under Code Section 409A and not subject to an exception or exemption thereunder shall be paid to you until the date that is six (6) months after your separation from service or, if earlier, the date of your death (the “Six-Month Delay Rule”).  Any such Accrued Benefits and Severance Benefits that would otherwise have been paid to you during this six-month period (the “Six-Month Delay”) shall instead be aggregated and paid (without interest) to you no later than ten (10) calendar days following the date that is six (6) months after your separation from service.  Any Accrued Benefits and Severance Benefits to which you are entitled to be paid under this Section 4 after the date that is six (6) months after your separation from service shall be paid to you in accordance with the applicable terms of Section 4.

		
	(ii)
	During the Six-Month Delay, the Company will pay to you the applicable payments set forth in this Section 4, to the extent any of the following exceptions to the Six-Month Delay Rule apply:

		
	(A)
	the short-term deferral rule of Code Section 409A and Treasury Regulation §1.409A-1(b)(4) (or any similar or successor provisions) (including with the treatment of each payment as one of a series of separate payments for purposes of Code Section 409A and Treasury Regulation §1.409A-2(b)(2)(iii)) (or any similar or successor provisions),

		
	(B)
	payments permitted under the separation pay exception of Code Section 409A and Treasury Regulation §1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) (or any similar or successor provisions), and

		
	(C)
	payments permitted under the limited payments exception of Code Section 409A and Treasury Regulation §1.409A-1(b)(9)(v)(D) (or any similar or successor provisions), 

provided that the amount paid under this Section 4(e)(ii) will count toward, and will not be in addition to, the total payment amount required to be made to you by the Company under this Section 4 on account of your separation from service and any applicable Company benefit plan.
		
	(f)
	The Company shall deliver to you a form general release and waiver of claims in favor of the Company that is acceptable to the Company (the “Release”) as soon as administratively feasible following your separation from service, but no later than thirty (30) calendar days following such date.  Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, no payments pursuant to Section 4(a)(ii) or Section 4(b) shall be made prior to the date that both (i) you have delivered an original, signed Release to the Company and (ii) the revocability period (if any) has elapsed; provided, however, that any payments that would otherwise have been made prior to such 

date but for the fact that you had not yet delivered an original, signed Release (or the revocability period had not yet elapsed) shall be made as soon as administratively practicable but not later than the seventy-fourth (74th) calendar day following your separation from service.  If you do not deliver an original, signed Release to the Company within ten (10) business days (or longer if required by applicable law) after receipt of the same from the Company, (i) your rights shall be limited to those made available to you under Section 4(a) above (excluding Section 4(a)(ii)), and (ii) the Company shall have no obligation to pay or provide to you any amount or benefits described in Section 4(a)(ii) or Section 4(b), or any other monies on account of your separation from service.  Notwithstanding any language in this Agreement to the contrary, if the seventy-fourth (74th) calendar day following the date of your termination occurs in a different calendar year than the calendar year of your date of termination, then the payment of any Severance Benefits subject to Code Section 409A shall be made no earlier than January 1 of the calendar year following the year in which your date of termination occurred.
		
	5.
	Successors; Binding Agreements.

		
	(a)
	The Company will require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company or of any division or subsidiary thereof employing you to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place.  Failure of the Company to obtain such assumption and agreement prior to the effectiveness of any such succession shall be a breach of this Agreement and shall entitle you to compensation from the Company in the same amount and on the same terms to which you would be entitled hereunder if you terminated your employment for Good Reason following a Change of Control, except that for purposes of implementing the foregoing, the date on which any such succession becomes effective shall be deemed your Date of Termination.

		
	(b)
	This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by your personal and legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees, devisees, and legatees.  If you should die while any amount would still be payable to you hereunder if you had continued to live, all such amounts, unless otherwise provided herein, shall be paid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, to your devisee, legatee or other designee or, if there is no such designee, to your estate.

		
	6.
	No Funding of Benefits.  Nothing herein contained shall require or be deemed to require the Company to segregate, earmark, or otherwise set aside any funds or other assets to provide for any payments to be made hereunder.  Your rights under this Agreement shall be solely those of a general creditor of the Company.  However, in the event of a Change of Control, the Company may deposit cash or property, or both, equal in value to all or a portion of the benefits anticipated to be payable hereunder into a trust, the assets of which are to be distributed at such times as are otherwise provided for in this Agreement and are subject to the rights of the general creditors of the Company.  The Company also may deposit additional amounts to cover any administrative fees and expenses associated with the trust.

		
	7.
	Withholding of Taxes.  The Company may withhold from any amounts payable under this Agreement all federal, state, city, or other taxes as legally shall be required.  The Company may, at its option (a) require you to pay to the Company in cash such amount as may be required to satisfy such withholding obligations or (b) make other satisfactory arrangements with you to satisfy such withholding obligations. 

		
	8.
	Notice.  For the purpose of this Agreement, notices and all other communications provided for in this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when delivered or mailed by United States registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed to the respective addresses set forth on the first page of this Agreement.

		
	9.
	Miscellaneous.  No provision of this Agreement may be modified, waived or discharged unless such waiver, modification or discharge is agreed to in writing and signed by you and such officer as may be specifically designated by the Board.  The validity, interpretation, construction, and performance of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware.  The Company and you agree that the jurisdiction and venue for any disputes arising under, or any action brought to enforce, or otherwise relating to, this Agreement shall be exclusively in the courts in the State of North Carolina, Mecklenburg County, including the Federal Courts located therein or responsible therefor (should Federal jurisdiction exist), and the Company and you hereby submit and consent to said jurisdiction and venue.

		
	10.
	Employment Rights.  This Agreement shall not confer upon you any right to continue in the employ of the Company or its subsidiaries and, except to the extent that benefits may become payable under Section 4, above, shall not in any way affect the right of the Company or its subsidiaries to dismiss or otherwise terminate your employment at any time and for any reason with or without Cause.

		
	11.
	No Vested Interest.  Neither you nor your estate shall have any right, title or interest in any benefit under this Agreement prior to the occurrence of all of the events specified herein as necessary conditions to such right, title or interest.

		
	12.
	Prior Agreements.  This Agreement contains the understanding between the parties hereto with respect to severance benefits in connection with a Change of Control of the Company and supersedes any prior such agreement between the Company (or any predecessor of the Company) and you.  If there is any discrepancy or conflict between this Agreement and any plan, policy and program of the Company regarding any term or condition of severance benefits in connection with a Change of Control of the Company, the language of this Agreement shall govern.  

		
	13.
	Coordination with Other Arrangements.  Payments and benefits under this Agreement shall be in lieu of any severance payments or benefits provided to you under any other severance pay plan, policy or arrangement of or with the Company.

		
	14.
	Validity.  The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect.

		
	15.
	Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

		
	16.
	Dispute Resolution.  Any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement shall be settled exclusively by arbitration in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) then in effect, in Charlotte, North Carolina in accordance with the AAA’s National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes.  Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator’s award in any court having jurisdiction.  However, you shall be entitled to seek in court specific performance of your right, pursuant to Section 3(f), above, to be paid until the Date of Termination during the pendency of any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement.  You acknowledge that by accepting this arbitration provision you are waiving any right to a jury trial in the event of a covered dispute.  The arbitrator may, but is not required to, order that the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the losing party its attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in any arbitration arising out of this Agreement.  The arbitrator will have the right only to interpret and apply the provisions of this Agreement and may not change any of its provisions.  The arbitrator will permit reasonable pre-hearing discovery of facts, to the extent necessary to establish a claim or a defense to a claim, subject to supervision by the arbitrator.  The determination of the arbitrator will be conclusive and binding upon the parties and judgment upon the same may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.  The arbitrator will give written notice to the parties stating the arbitrator’s determination, and will furnish to each party a signed copy of such determination.  Any arbitration or action pursuant to this Section 16 will be governed by and construed in accordance with the substantive laws of the State of Delaware and, where applicable, federal law, without giving effect to the principles of conflict of laws of Delaware.  The Company will not be required to seek or participate in arbitration regarding any actual or threatened breach of any applicable non-compete, non-solicitation, confidentiality or similar restrictive covenants applicable to you, but may pursue its remedies in a court of competent jurisdiction.

		
	17.
	Code Section 409A Compliance.  To the extent any provision of this Agreement or action by the Company would subject you to liability for interest or additional taxes under Code Section 409A, it will be deemed null and void, to the extent permitted by law and deemed advisable by the Company.  It is intended that this Agreement will comply with Code Section 409A, including the exceptions for short-term deferrals, separation pay arrangements, reimbursements, and in-kind distributions, and this Agreement shall be administered accordingly, and interpreted and construed on a basis consistent with such intent.  Each payment under Section 4 of this Agreement or any Company benefit plan is intended to be treated as one of a series of separate payments for purposes of Code Section 409A and Treasury Regulation §1.409A-2(b)(2)(iii) (or any similar or successor provisions).  This Agreement may be amended to the extent necessary (including retroactively) by the Company in order to preserve compliance with Code Section 409A.  The preceding shall not be construed as a guarantee of any particular tax effect for your compensation and benefits.

		
	18.
	Payments to Estate.  The executor of your estate shall be entitled to receive all amounts owing to you at the time of death under this Agreement in full settlement and satisfaction of all claims and demands on your behalf.  Such payments shall be in addition to any other death benefits of the Company and in full settlement and satisfaction of all severance benefit payments provided for in this Agreement.  In the event of your death or a judicial determination of your incompetence, reference in this Agreement to “you” will be deemed to refer, where appropriate, to your estate or other legal representative.  

If this letter properly sets forth our agreement on the subject matter hereof, kindly date, sign and return to the Company the enclosed copy of this letter, which will then constitute our agreement on this subject.

SHARE SWAP AGREEMENT
THIS AGREEMENT IS DATED 16 JUNE 2016 AND MADE BETWEEN: 
		
	(1)
	ASML Holding N.V., a public limited liability company incorporated under the laws of the Netherlands, with corporate seat in Veldhoven, the Netherlands and registered address at De Run 6501, 5504 DR Veldhoven, the Netherlands ("ASML"); 

and 
		
	(2)
	Hermes Microvision, Inc., a public company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of Taiwan, with corporate seat in Hsinchu City, Taiwan and registered address at 7F, No.18, Puding Road, East Dist., Hsinchu City, Republic of China ("HMI"); 

(ASML and HMI each a "Party" and jointly the "Parties"),
BACKGROUND: 
		
	(A)
	ASML intends to implement a 100% share swap pursuant to Article 29 of the ROC Business Mergers and Acquisitions Act (the "M&A Act") with HMI, whereby ASML or its designated wholly owned Subsidiary will acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding capital shares of HMI (the "Shares") for such consideration as further described in this Agreement and on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Shares will be delisted from the TPEx (the "Transaction");

		
	(B)
	The Supervisory Board of 1ASML has approved ASML's entry into this Agreement; 

		
	(C)
	Each of the HMI Audit Committee and the HMI Board has determined that it is in the best interests of HMI and its shareholders, and declared it advisable, to enter into this Agreement, and the HMI Board has approved the execution, delivery and performance by HMI of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, subject to the approval of the shareholders of HMI; and 

		
	(D)
	Prior to the execution of this Agreement, certain shareholders of HMI have entered into (i) irrevocable undertakings to vote in favor of the Transaction (the "Irrevocable Undertakings") and (ii) investment agreements to subscribe to shares in ASML (the "Investment Agreements" and the transactions contemplated therein, the "Private Placements").  

THE PARTIES AGREE AS FOLLOWS:

		
	1
	DEFINITIONS AND INTERPRETATION

The definitions and provisions of Schedule 1 (Definitions and Interpretation) apply throughout this Agreement.

		
	2
	SHARE SWAP

		
	2.1
	Consideration

		
	2.1.1
	Subject and pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, each Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Completion Date (other than Shares to be cancelled in accordance with Clause 2.1.2 and any Dissenting Shares) shall, upon the Completion Date, be transferred to and in the name of ASML or its designated wholly owned Subsidiary and against such transfer to ASML or such designated wholly owned Subsidiary thereafter represent the right to receive NTD 1410 per Share (one thousand four hundred and ten New Taiwan Dollars per Share) in cash, without interest, and subject to deduction for any required withholding Tax (the "Consideration"). 

		
	2.1.2
	Each Share held in the treasury of HMI immediately prior to the Completion Date shall automatically be cancelled, and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor. 

		
	2.1.3
	Each of the global depositary shares issued by The Bank of New York Mellon (the "GDS Agent") and listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange (the "Luxembourg GDSs") shall be cancelled pursuant to Completion through payment by the GDS Agent to the holders of the Luxembourg GDSs of an amount per Luxembourg GDS equal to the Consideration. The GDS Agent shall receive through the Payment Fund an aggregate amount equal to the number of Shares held by the GDS Agent multiplied by the Consideration. 

		
	2.2
	Options 

		
	2.2.1
	Upon Completion, each Vested Company Option shall terminate and be cancelled, and the holder of such Vested Company Option shall be entitled to receive from HMI, promptly following the Completion Date, a cash payment (subject to all applicable deductions and withholding) equal to the product of 

 
(1) the number of Shares that were issuable upon exercise of such Vested Company Option immediately prior to Completion multiplied by (2) the excess, if any, of (x) the Consideration over (y) the per-share exercise price for the Shares that would have been payable upon exercise of such Vested Company Option immediately prior to Completion (with the understanding that, for purposes of this clause, if there are different exercise prices for different Vested Company Options held by the same holder, separate calculations shall be made for each exercise price).

		
	2.2.2
	At Completion, each Unvested Company Option shall be assumed by ASML and shall be converted into a corresponding entitlement under an ASML share plan appropriate for the holder of such Unvested Company Option. Each such entitlement shall be subject to terms and conditions that are at least equivalent to the terms and conditions governing the Unvested Company Option immediately prior to the Completion Date. 

		
	2.2.3
	The Deferred Cash Bonus Units issued under the Deferred Cash Bonus Plan shall have been cancelled, and the plan terminated, prior to the Completion Date. 

		
	2.3
	Acquisition entity

		
	2.3.1
	ASML may designate a (to be incorporated) wholly-owned Subsidiary to be the purchasing entity (the "Purchaser") of the Shares in the Share Swap by giving Notice to HMI, provided such Notice is given within fourteen (14) days of the Signing Date. 

		
	2.3.2
	If ASML designates a wholly-owned Subsidiary to be the Purchaser in accordance with Clause 2.3.1:

the Purchaser will be admitted to this Agreement as a new and additional party, provided that (a) ASML remains a direct party to this Agreement and (b) ASML shall be fully liable for all actions and/or inactions of the Purchaser as if ASML were the Purchaser; and
the Parties will cooperate to take such corporate action as may be reasonably required as a result of such designation.

		
	2.4
	Articles of Incorporation

		
	2.4.1
	If ASML designates a wholly-owned Subsidiary incorporated in Taiwan to be the Purchaser in accordance with Clause 2.3.1, ASML shall cause such Subsidiary to amend the authorised capital amount and, to the extent required, the business scope in its articles of incorporation to facilitate the Transaction.

		
	2.4.2
	HMI's articles of incorporation in effect as of the Signing Date shall be the articles of incorporation of HMI on the Completion Date.

		
	2.5
	Fractional Share

Since the Consideration to be paid in the Transaction will be in cash, the Parties agree that this Agreement does not provide the procedure for dealing with fractional shares to be issued to the shareholders of HMI. 

		
	2.6
	Dissenting shareholders

		
	2.6.1
	Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Completion Date that are held by any holder who has, either prior to or during the EGM, objected in writing, or objected orally (which objection has been recorded by HMI), to the Transaction, and 

waived its voting right and which is entitled to demand and properly demands HMI to buy back Shares of such holder at the fair market price (the "Appraisal") pursuant to and in compliance with the M&A Act and the Company Act (such Shares, "Dissenting Shares" and the holder of Dissenting Shares, a "Dissenting Shareholder"), shall not have the right to receive any portion of the Consideration, unless and until such Dissenting Shareholder shall have failed to perfect, or, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, until such holder shall have effectively withdrawn or lost, such holder's right to Appraisal under applicable Law. Dissenting Shares shall be treated in accordance with the M&A Act and the Company Act. 
		
	2.6.2
	Immediately after the EGM, HMI shall promptly notify ASML of any demands for Appraisal of any Shares, attempted withdrawals of such notices or demands and any other instruments received by HMI relating to rights to Appraisal, and ASML shall have the right to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands. 

		
	2.6.3
	Prior to the Completion Date, HMI shall not, without the prior written consent of ASML (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), make any payment with respect to, settle or offer to settle, or approve any withdrawal of any such demands; provided, however, that HMI shall have the right to make any payment with respect to, settle or offer to settle, or approve any withdrawal of any such demands, in each case at a per Share price up to but not more than the Consideration.

		
	2.6.4
	In case HMI will have to make any payments to Dissenting Shareholders, the Parties agree that the provisions of Schedule 7 (Funding of payment for Dissenting Shares) shall apply. 

		
	2.6.5
	The consummation of the Transaction shall take place on the Completion Date irrespective of whether (i) HMI and any Dissenting Shareholder have reached an agreement on the buy-back of the Dissenting Shares, (ii) there is any on-going legal proceeding between HMI and any Dissenting Shareholder related to buy-back of Dissenting Shares, and (iii) HMI has yet to buy back any and all Dissenting Shares.

	Payment 

		
	7.2.1
	At or prior to the Completion Date, ASML shall deliver or cause to be delivered to HMI's stock agent, or, at ASML's sole discretion, to another stock agent designated 

by ASML (the "Stock Agent"), in trust for the benefit of the shareholders of HMI, cash in an amount sufficient to pay the aggregate Consideration (the "Payment Fund"). The Payment Fund shall not be used for any purpose other than to pay the Consideration per Share to the shareholders of HMI in accordance with this Agreement.

	7.2.2
	As soon as reasonably practicable on or after the Completion Date, ASML shall cause the Stock Agent to pay the Consideration to each holder of record of Shares represented by book-entry that, immediately prior to the Completion Date, represented outstanding Shares that were converted into the right to receive the Consideration. After paying the Consideration pursuant to this Clause 7.2.2, the Stock Agent shall apply with the Taiwan Depository & Clearing Corporation to transfer the Shares to the name of ASML or, if ASML has designated a wholly-owned Subsidiary in accordance with Clause 2.3.1, the Purchaser.

In the event that the Payment Fund is insufficient to make the payments contemplated by this Agreement, ASML shall, or shall cause its designated Subsidiary to, promptly deposit additional funds with the Stock Agent in an amount which is equal to the deficiency in the amount required to make such payment. The Payment Fund will not be used for any purpose not expressly provided for in this Agreement.

		
	7.3
	Right of withholding
