1.Capitalized Terms. Each capitalized term used but not defined in this Award Agreement (including Appendix A) shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in the Baker Hughes, a GE company 2017 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”).
2.    Grant. The Committee of Baker Hughes, a GE company (the “Company”) has granted Performance Share Units (“PSUs”) to the individual named in this Award Agreement (the “Participant”) on [●] (the “Grant Date”).  Each PSU entitles the Participant to receive from the Company one share of Class A common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (“Share”), for which the restrictions set forth in paragraph 4 lapse in accordance with the terms of this Award Agreement, the Plan, any country specific addendums and any rules and procedures adopted by the Committee. The target number of PSUs reflected in the Participant’s Plan account maintained by Fidelity Stock Plan Services (the “Target PSUs”) is the number of PSUs that the Participant may earn if the Performance Condition is satisfied at the target level.  The actual number of PSUs that the Participant may earn may be less than or more than the Target PSUs, depending upon actual performance, as specified in paragraph 4.
3.    No Dividend Equivalents. No Dividend Equivalents will be paid to the Participant with respect to the PSUs. 
4.    Restrictions. 
a.    Lapse of Restrictions Generally. Restrictions on the PSUs will lapse to the extent that both the Service Condition and the Performance Condition are satisfied, based on the Committee Certification.  Subject to paragraphs 5 and 6, the “Service Condition” will be satisfied with respect to the PSUs only if the Participant has been continuously employed by the Company or one of its Affiliates through the End Date, and the “Performance Condition” will be satisfied with respect to between 0% and 150% of the Target PSUs based on attainment of Relative TSR in accordance with Appendix A. After the end of the Performance Period and prior to the issuance or delivery of any Shares pursuant to paragraph 7, the Committee shall certify the extent, if any, to which the Performance Condition was achieved.
b.    Maximum Value Limitation. Notwithstanding anything in this Award Agreement to the contrary, if the Final Value of the Shares otherwise issuable on lapse of the restrictions on the PSUs, as determined in accordance with this Award Agreement, exceeds the applicable Maximum Value, the number of Shares issued to the Participant will equal the number of Shares equal to such Maximum Value. “Final Value” means the closing price of a Share on the End Date, multiplied by the number of Shares otherwise issuable on lapse of the restrictions applicable to the PSUs (assuming for such purpose that the immediately preceding sentence did not apply). “Maximum Value” means the closing price of a Share on the Grant Date multiplied by the Target PSUs, multiplied by 5.
c.     Negative TSR. Notwithstanding anything in this Award Agreement to the contrary, if (i) the TSR of a Share is negative and (i) the number of Shares otherwise issuable on lapse of the

Exhibit 10.28

restrictions applicable to the PSUs, as determined in accordance with this Award Agreement, exceeds the number of Target PSUs, the number of Shares issued to the Participant will equal the number of Target PSUs.  
5.    Termination of Employment. If the Participant’s employment with the Company or any of its Affiliates terminates prior to the End Date, the PSUs shall be immediately cancelled, except as follows:

If the Participant’s employment with the Company or any of its Affiliates terminates prior to the End Date as a result of employment by a successor employer to which the Company has transferred a business operation, the Service Condition shall be deemed fully satisfied as of the date of such termination, and, subject to paragraph 6(a), the PSUs shall remain subject to the Performance Condition.
c.    Termination Following a Change in Control.  If the Participant’s employment with the Company of any of its Affiliates terminates without Cause during the 12-month period following a Change in Control, the Service Condition shall be deemed fully satisfied as of the date of such termination. For purposes of this Award Agreement, “Change in Control” means (A) a Change in Control as defined in the Plan or (B) the date a majority of members of the Board is replaced during any 12-month period by Directors whose appointment or election is not endorsed by a majority of the members of the Board before the date of the appointment or election.

If, on or after the first anniversary of the Grant Date and prior to the End Date, the Participant’s employment with the Company or any of its Affiliates terminates as a result of any of the reasons set forth below, or the Participant becomes eligible to retire or meets the age and service requirements, each as specified in (c)(i) below, then the restrictions on the PSUs shall remain eligible to lapse based on attainment of the Performance Condition or shall be cancelled as provided below (subject to any rules adopted by the Committee):
(i)    Termination/Eligibility for Retirement or Termination for Total Disability.  If (A) the Participant attains at least age 60 while still employed by the Company or an Affiliate and completes 5 or more years of continuous service with the Company and any of its Affiliates, or (B) the Participant’s employment with the Company or any of its Affiliates terminates as a result of a total disability, i.e., the inability to perform any job for which the Participant is reasonably suited by means of education, training or experience, the Service Condition shall be deemed fully satisfied as of the date of such termination, and, subject to paragraph 6(a), the PSUs shall remain subject to the Performance Condition.
