RECITALS:
WHEREAS, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Administrator”) has approved the grant to the Participant of a contingent right to receive an award of Restricted Stock Units (the “Award”) for shares of Common Stock issuable under the Qorvo, Inc. 2022 Stock Incentive Plan, as it may be amended (the “Plan”), the grant of which Award is subject to the attainment of certain performance objectives and the vesting of which Award is subject to certain service requirements, as further described in this Agreement;
NOW, THEREFORE, in furtherance of the purposes of the Plan, the Company and the Participant hereby agree as follows:
1.Incorporation of Plan.  The rights and duties of the Company and the Participant under this Agreement shall in all respects be subject to and governed by the provisions of the Plan, the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference.  Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, (i) in the event of a conflict between any term or provision contained in the Plan and an express term contained in this Agreement, the applicable terms and provisions of the Plan shall govern and prevail, and (ii) the terms of this Agreement shall not be deemed to be in conflict or inconsistent with the Plan merely because they impose greater or additional restrictions, obligations or duties, or if this Agreement provides that the Agreement terms apply notwithstanding the provisions to the contrary in the Plan.  Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms in this Agreement shall have the same definitions as set forth in the Plan.
2.Certain Defined Terms.  The following terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in this Section 2:
(a)The “Award Date” is the date on which the Award or any portion of the Award is or may be granted to the Participant following the Administrator’s determination regarding whether all or a portion of the Performance Objectives have been attained and completion of such other action as may be necessary to complete the grant of the Award or a portion of the Award.  Performance Objectives may have separate Award Dates.
(b)The “Effective Date” is the effective date of the Agreement, as stated above.
(c)The “Participant” is #ParticipantName#.  
Employee ID# #EmployeeID#.
(d)“Performance Objectives” are the specific performance objectives identified in Schedule B attached hereto.
(e)The “Performance Period” or “Performance Periods” shall be the Performance Period or Performance Periods as described in Schedule B.  Performance Objectives may have different Performance Periods, if so provided in Schedule B. 

(f)The “Restriction Period” is the period beginning on the Award Date and ending on such date or dates and occurrence of such conditions as described in Section 3 of Schedule A attached hereto.
(g)The “Shares” shall be that number, if any, of shares of Common Stock subject to the Award which are or may be granted under this Agreement, as such number may be determined in accordance with Section 1 of Schedule A.
3.Award Opportunity; Incorporation of the Terms of Schedule A and Schedule B of the Agreement.
(a)    The Company hereby grants to the Participant an opportunity to be granted an Award for a certain number of shares of Common Stock (as defined above, the “Shares”) based upon the level of attainment of the Performance Objectives, all as described in Schedule A and Schedule B, during the Performance Period.  The number, if any, of Shares subject to the Award shall be determined by the Administrator based on the achievement of the Performance Objectives described in Schedule B.  No Award is being granted at this time, and no Award shall be granted unless and until the Administrator, in its sole discretion and in accordance with the terms of the Plan and this Agreement, determines and certifies whether and to what extent the Award has been earned (including but not limited to determining whether and to what extent the Performance Objectives have been met), determines the number of Shares that shall be subject to the Award and takes any other action it deems necessary or advisable in order to complete the grant.

(b)    The Participant expressly acknowledges that the terms of Schedule A and Schedule B are incorporated herein by reference and constitute part of this Agreement.  The Company and the Participant further acknowledge that the Company’s signature on the signature page hereof and the Participant’s signature on the Grant Letter contained in Schedule A, or the Participant's electronic acceptance of the Award (using such procedures as required by the Company, including an online acceptance process through a website maintained by the Company or an agent designated by the Company), constitute their acceptance of all of the terms of this Agreement.  If the Participant has not affirmatively accepted or rejected the Award at least sixty (60) days prior to the first vesting date, the Participant is deemed to have accepted the Award and the terms and conditions set forth in the Agreement and the Plan. If the Participant rejects the Award, the Award will be cancelled and no benefits from the Award nor any compensation or benefits in lieu of the Award will be provided to the Participant. 

4.Grant of Award of Restricted Stock Units.  Subject to the terms of this Agreement and the Plan, the Company shall grant the Participant an Award of Restricted Stock Units (as defined above, the “Award”) for that number of Shares as determined in accordance with Schedule A and Schedule B if and only if the minimum (and up to the maximum) of the Performance Objectives are met during the Performance Period, as further described in Schedule A and Schedule B.  The number of Shares, if any, subject to the Award shall be determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion in accordance with the Plan and this Agreement (including Schedule A and Schedule B) following completion of the applicable Performance Period.  The Award Date shall be as soon as practicable after the end of the applicable Performance Period and the Administrator’s determination of the extent, if any, to which the Performance Objectives have been met and the Award has been earned (but, in any event, shall be in the calendar year that the applicable Performance Period ends).  The Award shall not be deemed earned, and the Award Date shall not occur, unless and until the Administrator determines and certifies the extent, if any, to which the Award has been earned following completion of the applicable Performance Period (unless the Administrator determines otherwise).  The Company shall give notice to the Participant after each Performance Period regarding whether the Award applicable to that Performance Period has been granted and the number of Shares subject to the Award.  
5.Stockholder Rights.  The Participant or his or her legal representatives, legatees or distributees shall not be deemed to be the holder of any Shares subject to the Award and shall not have any dividend rights (except as otherwise provided in Section 5 of Schedule A), voting rights or other rights as a stockholder unless and until (and then only to the extent that) the Award has been earned and 

vested and certificates for such Shares have been issued and delivered to him, her or them (or, in the case of uncertificated shares, other written evidence of ownership in accordance with Applicable Law shall have been provided).
6.Vesting of Award.  Subject to the terms of the Plan and this Agreement, the Shares subject to the Award shall be vested, and such Shares shall be distributable as provided in Section 8 herein, upon such date or dates, and subject to such conditions, as are described in this Agreement, including Section 3 of Schedule A.  Without limiting the effect of the foregoing, the Shares subject to the Award may vest in installments over a period of time, if so provided in Schedule A.  The Participant expressly acknowledges that the Award shall vest only upon such terms and conditions as are provided in this Agreement (including Schedule A and Schedule B) and otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Plan.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Participant shall be entitled to the greater of the benefits provided in this Agreement and any Change in Control Agreement, Employment Agreement or any other similar agreement between the Participant and the Company with respect to the terms governing the earning and vesting of the Award.  Without limiting the effect of the foregoing (and subject to any Code Section 409A considerations), the Participant understands and agrees that the Administrator may delay the vesting of the Award (or portion thereof) and the issuance of the underlying Shares upon vesting of the Award in order to comply with Applicable Law , including any non-U.S. federal, state or local securities laws, or applicable policies of the Company implemented to ensure compliance with such laws (including but not limited to the insider trading provision under Section 27 and the Company’s insider trading policy); provided, however, that, if the Participant solely is subject to the laws of the United States, any such delay in vesting of the Award or the issuance of Shares upon vesting of the Award shall not apply to any Shares subject to an effective Rule 10b5-1 trading plan.  The Administrator has sole authority to determine whether and to what degree the Award has vested and is payable and to interpret the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan.
7.Effect of Termination; Forfeiture of Award.  Except as may be otherwise provided in the Plan or this Agreement (including but not limited to Schedule A), in the event that the employment or other service of the Participant is terminated (regardless of the reason for such termination and whether or not found to be invalid or in breach of Applicable Law in the jurisdiction where the Participant is rendering services or the terms of his or her employment or other service agreement, if any) and all or part of the Award has not vested as of the Termination Date pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, then the Award, to the extent not earned and vested as of the Termination Date, shall be forfeited immediately upon such termination, and the Participant shall have no further rights with respect to the Award or the Shares underlying that portion of the Award that has not yet vested.  The Participant expressly acknowledges and agrees that the termination of his or her employment or other service shall (except as may otherwise be provided in this Agreement or the Plan) result in forfeiture of the Award and the Shares to the extent the Award has not vested as of his or her Termination Date.  For the avoidance of doubt, if the employment or other service of the Participant is terminated prior to any scheduled vesting date, the Participant will not earn or be entitled to any pro-rated vesting for any portion of time before the respective vesting date during which the Participant was employed or otherwise providing service, nor will the Participant be entitled to any compensation for lost vesting of the Award.
For purposes of the Award (and except as otherwise required under Code Section 409A), the Termination Date occurs on the date the Participant is no longer actively providing services to the Company or any Affiliate and will not be extended by any notice period (e.g., the Participant’s period of service would not include any contractual notice period or any period of “garden leave” or similar period mandated under Applicable Law in the jurisdiction where the Participant is employed or otherwise providing services, or the terms of his or her employment or other service agreement, if any); the Administrator shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when the Participant is no longer actively providing services for purposes of the Award (including whether the Participant may still be considered to be providing services while on a leave of absence).

8.Settlement of Award.  The Award, if vested in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, shall be payable in whole or, if permitted by the Administrator, fractional Shares.  Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, the total number of whole Shares that may be acquired upon vesting of the Award (or portion thereof) shall be rounded down to the nearest whole Share.  Except as otherwise provided in Sections 3(b)(iv) and 3(b)(v) of Schedule A, a certificate or certificates for the Shares subject 

to the Award or portion thereof shall be issued in the name of the Participant or his or her beneficiary (or, in the case of uncertificated shares, other written evidence of ownership in accordance with Applicable Law shall be provided) on or as soon as practicable after, but no later than the 15th day of the third calendar month following, the date the Award or portion thereof has vested in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  In no event shall the Participant (or his or her beneficiary) be permitted, directly or indirectly, to designate the calendar year of distribution.  
9.No Right of Continued Employment or Other Service.  Nothing contained in this Agreement or the Plan shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue in the employment or other service of the Company or an Affiliate or interfere in any way with the right of the Company or an Affiliate to terminate the Participant’s employment or other service at any time.
10.Nontransferability of Award and Shares.  The Award shall not be transferable (including by sale, assignment, pledge or hypothecation) other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.  The designation of a beneficiary in accordance with the Plan (to the extent permitted by the Administrator and valid under Applicable Law) does not constitute a transfer.  The Participant shall not sell, transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise encumber the Shares subject to the Award until such Shares have been issued and delivered to the Participant.
11.Responsibility for Taxes.
(a)    The Participant acknowledges that, regardless of any action taken by the Company or, if different, the Affiliate for which he or she provides services (the “Service Recipient”), the ultimate liability for all income tax, excise tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to the Participant’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable or deemed legally applicable to the Participant (“Tax-Related Items”) is and remains the Participant’s responsibility and may exceed the amount, if any, actually withheld by the Company or the Service Recipient.  Further, if the Participant is subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction, the Participant acknowledges that the Company and/or the Service Recipient (or former service recipient, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.
(b)    In connection with any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, the Participant agrees to make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Service Recipient to satisfy all Tax-Related Items.  In this regard, the Participant authorizes the Company or its respective agents to satisfy their withholding obligations (if any) with regard to all Tax-Related Items by withholding Shares (including a fractional number of Shares, if permitted by the Administrator) to be issued upon settlement of the Award.  In the event that the Company determines that withholding Shares is problematic under Applicable Law or has materially adverse accounting consequences, by his or her acceptance of the Award, the Participant authorizes (i) the Company and any brokerage firm determined acceptable to the Company to sell, on his or her behalf, a number of Shares (which may be whole or, if permitted by the Administrator, fractional) from those Shares issuable to the Participant as the Company determines to be appropriate to generate cash proceeds sufficient to satisfy any withholding obligation for Tax-Related Items, (ii) the Company or the Service Recipient (subject to any Code Section 409A considerations) to satisfy their withholding obligations (if any) for Tax-Related Items by withholding from the Participant’s salary, wages or other cash compensation payable to the Participant by the Company or any Affiliate, or (iii) the Company or the Service Recipient to satisfy their withholding obligations (if any) for Tax-Related Items by any other method of withholding determined by the Company and permitted by Applicable Law and the Plan.  The Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering statutory withholding amounts or other withholding rates, including maximum rates applicable in the Participant’s jurisdiction(s).  In the event of over-withholding, the Participant may receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash (with no entitlement to the equivalent in Shares), or if not refunded, the Participant may seek a refund from local tax authorities. In the event of under-withholding, the Participant may be required to pay any additional Tax-Related Items directly to the applicable tax authority or to the Company and/or the Service Recipient.  If Shares are withheld, for tax purposes, the Participant will be deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject to 

the vested portion of the Award, notwithstanding that a number of the Shares is held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items.  Further, the Participant shall pay to the Company or the Service Recipient any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Service Recipient may be required to withhold as a result of his or her participation in the Plan or acquisition of Shares that cannot be satisfied by the means described above.  The Company may refuse to issue or deliver the Shares or the proceeds of the sale of Shares if the Participant fails to comply with his or her obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.

(c)    The Participant acknowledges that the Company and/or the Service Recipient have made no warranties or representations to the Participant with respect to the Tax-Related Items (including but not limited to income or excise tax consequences) with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and the Participant is in no manner relying on the Company or its representatives for an assessment of such tax consequences.  The Participant further acknowledges that there may be adverse tax consequences upon the grant or vesting of the Award and/or the acquisition or disposition of the Shares subject to the Award and the receipt of any dividends, and that he or she should consult with his or her own attorney, accountant and/or tax advisor regarding the decision to enter into this Agreement and the consequences thereof.  The Participant also acknowledges that the Company has no responsibility to take or refrain from taking any actions in order to achieve a certain tax result for the Participant.  The Participant agrees that in no event shall the Company and/or the Service Recipient be liable for all or any portion of the taxes, penalties, interest or other expenses that may be incurred by the Participant on account of non-compliance with Code Section 409A.

12.Nature of Grant.  By accepting the contingent right to receive the Award, the Participant acknowledges, understands and agrees that:
(a)    the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, is discretionary in nature, and may be amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time, to the extent permitted by the Plan;

(b)    the Award is exceptional, voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future awards, or benefits in lieu of Awards, even if Awards have been granted in the past;

(c)    all decisions with respect to future awards to the Participant, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company; 

(d)    the Participant’s participation in the Plan is voluntary; 

(e)    the Award and any Shares acquired under the Plan, and the value of and income attributable to the same, are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation;

(g)    the Award and any Shares acquired under the Plan, and the value of and income attributable to the same, are not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for purposes of, including but not limited to, calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, end of service payments, dismissal, bonuses, long-service awards, holiday pay, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar payments; 

(h)    the future value of the Shares underlying the Award is unknown and cannot be predicted; 

(i)    unless otherwise provided in the Plan, the Award and the benefits evidenced by this Agreement do not create any entitlement to have the Award or any such benefits transferred to, or assumed by, another company nor be exchanged, cashed out or substituted for, in connection with any corporate transaction affecting the Common Stock; 

(j)    no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from forfeiture of the Award resulting from the Participant’s termination of employment or service (for any reason whatsoever whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of Applicable Law in the jurisdiction where the Participant is employed or otherwise rendering services or the terms of his or her employment or service agreement, if any); and

(k)    if the Participant is employed or otherwise providing services outside of the U.S.:

(i)the Award and any Shares acquired under the Plan, and the value of and income attributable to the same, are not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purpose, and in no event should be considered as compensation for, or relating in any way to, past services to the Service Recipient, the Company or any other Affiliate; and
(ii)neither the Company, the Service Recipient nor any other Affiliate shall be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between the Participant’s local currency and the U.S. dollar that may affect the value of the Award or of any amounts due to the Participant pursuant to the vesting of the Award or the subsequent sale of any Shares acquired upon vesting.

15.Superseding Agreement; Successors and Assigns.

In addition, the Participant shall be subject to such compensation recovery, recoupment, forfeiture, or other similar provisions as may apply at any time to the Participant under Applicable Law.
27.Insider Trading/Market-Abuse Laws.  The Participant acknowledges that the Participant may be subject to insider trading restrictions and/or market-abuse laws, which may affect the Participant’s ability to accept, acquire, sell or otherwise dispose of Shares, rights to Shares, or rights linked to the value of Shares during such times as the Participant is considered to have “inside information” regarding the Company (as defined by the laws or regulations in the Participant’s country).  Local insider trading laws and regulations may prohibit the cancellation or amendment of orders the Participant places before possessing inside information.  Furthermore, the Participant could be prohibited from (i) disclosing the inside information to any third party (other than on a “need to know” basis) and (ii) “tipping” third parties or causing them otherwise to buy or sell securities.  The Participant understands that third parties include fellow employees.
Any restrictions under these laws or regulations are separate from and in addition to any restrictions that may be imposed under any applicable Company insider-trading policy.

The Participant may be required to report such accounts, assets or transactions to the tax or other authorities in his or her country.

If a Performance Objective is met, the Participant shall be granted an Award for a number of Shares equal to the Target multiplied by the percentage assigned to such Performance Objective.  One or more of the Performance Objectives may contain a variable percentage of the Target based on performance criteria applicable to such Performance Objective, and the Administrator has the sole discretion to determine if, and to what extent on a percentage basis, any such Performance Objectives are met.  If all of the Performance Objectives are fully met, the Participant shall be granted an Award for the Maximum number of Shares (150% of Target) shown in Section 1(c) below.  The Award shall not be granted for a particular Performance Objective until following the end of the Performance Period for that Performance Objective and then only if the terms and conditions described in the Agreement have been met.

Maximum Number of Shares (150% of Target)

(d)The Performance Objectives must be met, if at all, during the applicable Performance Period, as described in Schedule B.  A Performance Objective shall not be considered as met until the Administrator determines and certifies the attainment of the Performance Objective.  The Administrator has sole discretion to determine if, and to what extent, any or all Performance Objectives are met and to interpret the other terms and conditions of the Agreement.  
2.Performance Objectives.  The Performance Objectives for the applicable Performance Period pursuant to the Agreement, and the applicable weighting of each Performance Objective expressed as a percentage of the Target, shall be as stated in Schedule B, attached hereto, the terms of which shall be incorporated in and constitute a part of the Agreement.

(i)In the event of the Participant's termination of employment or service for Cause, the Award (and any remaining right to underlying Shares) shall be forfeited immediately.
(ii)In the event of the Participant’s death (X) before the end of the Performance Period, the Award shall be deemed automatically earned and vested at the Target effective as of the date of the Participant’s death, or (Y) on or following the end of the Performance Period, to the extent the Award has previously been earned and is not fully vested as of the date of the Participant’s death, the Award shall automatically fully vest effective as of the date of the Participant’s death.
(iii)In the event of the Participant’s termination of employment or service for any reason (including termination due to Disability) other than death or for Cause, the following terms shall apply with respect to the Award:
A.If the Participant (1) has executed, within the Statutory Notice Period, a Release and, if so determined by the Company, a Severance Agreement, (2) does not revoke the Release prior to the end of the seven-day statutory revocation period, and (3) satisfies the Post-Employment Condition, then (X) if the Participant’s Termination Date is on or after the end of the Performance Period, to the extent the Award has previously been earned, the Award shall continue to vest, and (Y) if the Participant’s Termination Date precedes the end of the Performance Period, the Award shall continue to be eligible to be earned (based on the Administrator’s determination of the extent, if any, to which the Performance Objectives have been met following the end of the Performance Period) and shall vest, in each case, according to the vesting schedule stated in Section 3(a) above as if the Participant had remained an Employee of, or service provider to, the Company or an Affiliate during the Post-Termination Period.  
B.If the Participant fails to execute such Release and, if applicable, Severance Agreement, within the Statutory Notice Period, or revokes the Release prior to the end of the seven-day statutory revocation period, or violates the Post-Employment Condition, the Award (and any remaining right to underlying Shares) shall be deemed forfeited in its entirety as of the Participant’s Termination Date.  
C.If the Administrator determines in the exercise of its discretion that the Participant has committed a breach or violation of the Release, the Severance Agreement, the ICN Agreement or the Post-Employment Condition at any time on or prior to the end of the Post-Termination Period (without regard to when the Administrator first discovers or has notice of any such breach or violation), then, in addition to any other remedies available to the Company at law or in equity as a result of such breach or violation, (1) the Award (and any remaining right to underlying Shares) shall immediately be forfeited in its entirety; (2) any Shares and any other benefit subject to the Award that vested following the Participant’s Termination Date shall immediately be forfeited and returned to the Company (without the payment of any consideration for such Shares, including repayment of any amount paid by the Participant with respect to taxes 

related to the grant or vesting of the Award), and the Participant shall cease to have any interest in or right to such Shares and shall cease to be recognized as the legal owner of such Shares; and (3) any Gain realized by the Participant with respect to any Shares issued following the Participant’s Termination Date shall immediately be paid by the Participant to the Company.  The Administrator shall have discretion to determine the basis for termination, whether any breach of the Release, the Severance Agreement, the ICN Agreement or the Post-Employment Condition has occurred and to otherwise interpret this Section 3.  
D.If, during the Post-Termination Period, the Participant dies (1) before the end of the Performance Period, the Award shall be deemed automatically fully earned and vested at the Target effective as of the date of the Participant’s death, or (2) on or after the end of the Performance Period, to the extent the Award has previously been earned and is not fully vested as of the date of the Participant’s death, such Award shall automatically fully vest effective as of the date of the Participant’s death.  
(iv)    Except as otherwise provided in Section 3(b)(v) below, any Shares and any other benefit subject to the Award distributable to the Participant following the Termination Date pursuant to Section 3(b) herein shall be issued in accordance with the vesting schedule stated in Section 3(a) above and shall be distributed on each applicable vesting date or a later date within the same taxable year of the applicable vesting date specified in Section 3(a), or, if later, by the 15th day of the third calendar month following the applicable vesting date specified in Section 3(a).  In no event shall the Participant be permitted, directly or indirectly, to designate the taxable year of distribution.

(v)    Any Shares issuable to such person or persons as shall have acquired the right to the Award by will or by the laws of descent and distribution following the Participant’s death pursuant to Section 3(b)(ii) or Section 3(b)(iii)(D) above shall be issued to such person or persons on the date that is the 90th day following the date of the Participant’s death and shall be distributed on such issuance date or a later date within the period beginning on the issuance date and ending on December 31 of the calendar year following the calendar year of the Participant’s death.  In no event shall such person or persons be permitted, directly or indirectly, to designate the taxable year of distribution.

(c)    Defined Terms:  In addition to other terms defined herein or in the Agreement, the following terms shall have the meanings given below:

(i)    “Gain” means the Fair Market Value of the Company’s Common Stock on the date of sale or other disposition, multiplied by the number of Shares sold or disposed of.

(ii)    “ICN Agreement” means any Inventions, Confidentiality and Nonsolicitation Agreement (without regard to the formal title of such agreement) previously entered into between the Company and the Participant.

(iii)    “Post-Employment Condition” means the Participant may not provide services (whether as an employee, consultant or advisor) to any for-profit entity other than the Company or its Affiliates during the Post-Termination Period without the approval of the Administrator, which may be exercised in its sole discretion.

(iv)    “Post-Termination Period” means the period commencing on the Participant’s Termination Date and ending on the date that the last installment of Shares covered by the Award vests under this Agreement.

(v)    “Release” means an irrevocable (except to the extent required by law to be revocable) general release of claims, in form acceptable to the Company and containing such terms as may be specified by the Company in the exercise of its discretion (which discretion may include, but shall not be limited to, requiring a broad release of claims in favor of the Company).

(vi)    “Severance Agreement” means a severance or other similar agreement, in form acceptable to the Company and containing such terms as may be specified by the Company in the exercise of its discretion (which discretion may include, but shall not be limited to, requiring restrictive covenants in favor of the Company).

(vii)    “Statutory Notice Period” means twenty-one (21) days (or such other applicable statutory notice and/or consideration period) from the date a Release has been presented to the Participant by the Company.

4.Change of Control.  Notwithstanding Sections 1 and 3 of Schedule A, in the event of a Change of Control, the Award shall be deemed earned and vested as follows:
(a)    To the extent that the successor or surviving company in the Change of Control event does not assume or substitute for the Award (or in which the Company is the ultimate parent corporation and does not continue the Award) on substantially similar terms or with substantially equivalent economic benefits (as determined by the Administrator) as Awards outstanding under the Plan immediately prior to the Change of Control event, the Award shall be deemed earned and vested as if the Performance Objectives for the Award with the number of underlying Shares equal to 100% of the Target have been met as of the effective date of the Change of Control. 

(b)Further, in the event that the Award is substituted, assumed or continued, the Performance Objectives will nonetheless be deemed met for the Award with the number of underlying Shares equal to 100% of the Target, and the Award shall be deemed vested as follows
(i)The Award shall be vested with respect to fifty percent (50%) of the Target on the date of the Change of Control, subject to the continued employment or other service of the Participant with the Company or an Affiliate through such vesting date;
(ii)The Award shall be vested with respect to an additional twenty-five percent (25%) (for a total of seventy-five percent (75%)) of the Target on the second anniversary of the Effective Date, subject to the continued employment or other service of the Participant with the Company or an Affiliate through such vesting date; and
(iii)The Award shall be vested with respect to an additional twenty-five percent (25%) (for a total of one hundred percent (100%)) of the Target on the third anniversary of the Effective Date, subject to the continued employment or other service of the Participant with the Company or an Affiliate through such vesting date.
Notwithstanding the above, if the Participant’s employment or service is terminated by the Company and its Affiliates without Cause or by the Participant with Good Reason within six months before (in which 100% of the Target shall be deemed 100% vested as of the date of the Change of Control rather than the Participant’s Termination Date as provided below) or one year after (or such other period after a Change of Control as may be stated in the Participant’s change in control agreement, employment agreement or similar agreement, if applicable) the effective date of a Change of Control, 100% of the Target shall be deemed 100% vested as of the date of the Participant’s Termination Date.
5.    Dividends.  If at any time after the Effective Date the Company pays a dividend with respect to any Shares subject to the Award (to the extent that the Award is not then vested), such dividends shall be subject to the same performance, vesting, forfeiture, and other terms, conditions and restrictions as the Shares subject to the Award and shall be paid to the Participant in accordance with Section 8 and Sections 3(b)(iv) and 3(b)(v) of the Agreement if and to the extent the underlying Shares are earned in that Performance Period and become vested in accordance with this Schedule A.
