 RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT 

Capitalized terms not specifically defined in this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement (this “Agreement”) have the
meanings specified in the Grant Notice or, if not defined in the Grant Notice, in the Plan. 
 ARTICLE I. 

GENERAL 
 1.1 Award of
RSUs and Dividend Equivalents.  
 (a) The Company has granted the RSUs to Participant effective as of the Grant Date set forth
in the Grant Notice (the “Grant Date”). Each RSU represents the right to receive one Share as set forth in this Agreement. Participant will have no right to the distribution of any Shares until the time (if ever) the RSUs
have vested. 
 (b) The Company hereby grants to Participant, with respect to each RSU, a Dividend Equivalent for ordinary cash dividends
paid to substantially all holders of outstanding Shares with a record date after the Grant Date and prior to the date the applicable RSU is settled, forfeited or otherwise expires. Each Dividend Equivalent entitles Participant to receive the
equivalent value of any such ordinary cash dividends paid on a single Share. The Company will establish a separate Dividend Equivalent bookkeeping account (a “Dividend Equivalent Account”) for each Dividend Equivalent and
credit the Dividend Equivalent Account (without interest) on the applicable dividend payment date with the amount of any such cash paid. Any Dividend Equivalents granted in connection with the RSUs issued hereunder, and any amounts that may become
distributable in respect thereof, shall be treated separately from such RSUs and the rights arising in connection therewith for purposes of the designation of time and form of payments required by Section 409A. 

1.2 Incorporation of Terms of Plan. The RSUs are subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Plan, which is
incorporated herein by reference. In the event of any inconsistency between the Plan and this Agreement, the terms of the Plan will control. 

1.3 Unsecured Promise. The RSUs and Dividend Equivalents will at all times prior to settlement represent an unsecured Company
obligation payable only from the Company’s general assets. 
 1.4 Defined Terms. For purposes of this Agreement, the following
defined terms shall apply: 
 (a) “Cause” shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in any employment, offer
letter or similar agreement between Participant and the Company or any of its affiliates, if applicable, or in the absence of any such employment (or similar) agreement, “Cause” means Participant’s (i) willful failure to
substantially perform Participant’s duties (other than any such failure resulting from Participant’s physical or mental incapacity) that continues after written notice from the Company; (ii) willful misconduct, gross negligence,
breach of fiduciary duty in connection with the performance of Participant’s duties, (iii) fraud, theft, embezzlement or material misuse of funds or property belonging to the Company or its affiliates; (iv) indictment with respect to,
or plea of nolo contendere to, any felony (or state law requirement) or any crime involving fraud or moral turpitude; (v) a breach of any material policy or code of conduct established by the Company or any of its affiliates, (vi) a
material breach of any restrictive covenants to which Participant is subject, including, without limitation, confidentiality, non-disparagement, non-compete and non-solicit covenants, (vii) reporting to work under the influence of alcohol or illegal drugs or the use of illegal drugs (whether or not at the workplace); provided, however, that with respect to (i), (ii),
(v), (vi), or (vii) above, any determination of “Cause” may not be made until Participant has been given written notice detailing the specific Cause event and a period of ten days following receipt of such notice to cure such event
(if susceptible to cure). With respect to a Participant who is a non-employee member of the Board, “Cause” means Participant’s act or failure to act that constitutes cause for removal of a
director under applicable Delaware law. 

  
 2 

 (b) “Death/Disability Termination” shall mean a Termination of
Service due to Participant’s death or Disability. 
 (c) “Good Reason” shall have the meaning ascribed to such
term (or similar term) in any employment, offer letter or similar agreement between Participant and the Company or any of its affiliates, if applicable, or in the absence of any such employment (or similar) agreement, “Good Reason” means,
without Participant’s express written consent, the occurrence of any of the following events: 
 (i) the assignment to
Participant of any position(s), duties or responsibilities (including reporting responsibilities) that constitutes a materially adverse change or material diminution in Participant’s position(s), duties or responsibilities with the Company
(other than temporarily while incapacitated because of physical or mental illness), 
 (ii) a materially adverse change in
Participant’s titles or offices with the Company; 
 (iii) a material reduction by the Company in Participant’s
rate of annual base salary or annual target cash bonus opportunity; 
 (iv) any requirement of the Company that
Participant’s principal office location be more than fifty (50) miles from his or her location as of the Grant Date; or 

(v) any material breach of the Plan or this Agreement by the Company. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Good Reason event shall not be deemed to have occurred if the Company cures such action, failure or breach
within 45 days after receipt of notice thereof given by Participant. Participant’s right to terminate employment for Good Reason shall not be affected by Participant’s incapacities due to mental or physical illness and Participant’s
continued employment shall not constitute consent to, or a waiver of rights with respect to, any event or condition constituting Good Reason. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no termination will be deemed to be for Good
Reason hereunder unless (A) Participant provides written notice to the Company identifying the applicable event within 60 days after Participant becomes aware (or reasonably should have become aware) of such event(s), (B) the Company fails to
remedy the event within the applicable cure period following such notice, and (C) Participant terminates his or her employment as a result of such failure to cure within 60 days after the end of such cure period. 

(d) “Qualifying Termination” shall mean Participant’s Termination of Service by the Company without Cause or by
Participant for Good Reason. 
 (e) “Restrictive Covenants” shall mean any confidentiality, intellectual property
assignment, non-competition, non-solicitation and other protective covenants contained in any written agreement between the Company (or an affiliate) and Participant.

 ARTICLE II. 

VESTING; FORFEITURE AND SETTLEMENT 

2.1 Vesting. The RSUs will vest according to the vesting schedule in the Grant Notice except that any fraction of an RSU that would
otherwise be vested will be accumulated and will vest only when a whole RSU has accumulated. Dividend Equivalents (including any Dividend Equivalent Account balance) will vest upon the vesting of the RSUs with respect to which the Dividend
Equivalent (including the Dividend Equivalent Account) relates. 
 2.2 Termination of Service. 

(a) Upon Participant’s Qualifying Termination that occurs prior to a Change in Control, a number of RSUs shall vest equal to (i) the
number of RSUs that would have vested on the next Vesting Date (had Participant remained in service), multiplied by (ii) a fraction, (x) the numerator of which is the number of days Participant was in service from the prior Vesting Date
(or, if there is no such date, the Grant Date) through the termination date and the (y) denominator of which is the number of days from the prior Vesting Date (or, if there is no such date, the Grant Date) through the next scheduled Vesting
Date, and all RSUs that do not become vested in accordance with the foregoing automatically will be forfeited and terminated as of the termination date without consideration therefor. 

(b) Upon Participant’s Qualifying Termination that occurs on or following a Change in Control, 100% of the unvested RSUs shall vest. 

(c) Upon Participant’s Death/Disability Termination, 100% of the unvested RSUs shall vest. 

(d) The treatment set forth in this Section 2.2 is subject to and conditioned upon Participant’s (or Participant’s
estate’s) execution, delivery and non-revocation of a general release of claims in a form prescribed by the Company within 30 days following the termination date. 

(e) If Participant experiences a Termination of Service for any reason other than a Qualifying Termination or a Death/Disability Termination,
all RSUs that have not become vested on or prior to the date of such Termination of Service automatically will be forfeited and terminated as of the termination date without consideration therefor. 

2.3 Settlement. 
 (a) The
RSUs will be paid in Shares, and Dividend Equivalents (including any Dividend Equivalent Account balance) will be paid in cash or Shares, within 30 days following the earliest to occur of: (i) Participant’s death;
(ii) Participant’s “disability” (within the meaning of Section 409A); (iii) the applicable Vesting Date; and (iv) Participant’s “separation from service” (within the meaning of Section 409A) that
occurs on or following a Change in Control. For clarity, if any RSUs vest in connection with a Qualifying Termination prior to a Change in Control, then the RSUs will be paid on the original Vesting Dates set forth in the Grant Notice.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the foregoing proviso, the exact payment date of any RSUs and Dividend Equivalents shall be determined by the Company in its sole discretion (and Participant shall not have a right to designate
the time of payment). 
 (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may delay any payment under this Agreement that the Company
reasonably determines would violate Applicable Law until the earliest date the Company reasonably determines the making of the payment will not cause such a violation (in accordance with Treasury Regulation
Section 1.409A-2(b)(7)(ii)); provided the Company reasonably 

  
 4 

 
believes the delay will not result in the imposition of excise taxes under Section 409A. For the avoidance of doubt, any Dividend Equivalents granted in connection with the RSUs issued
hereunder, and any amounts that may become distributable in respect thereof, shall be treated separately from such RSUs and the rights arising in connection therewith for purposes of the designation of time and form of payments required by
Section 409A. 
 (c) If a Dividend Equivalent is paid in Shares, the number of Shares paid with respect to the Dividend Equivalent will
equal the quotient, rounded down to the nearest whole Share, of the Dividend Equivalent Account balance divided by the Fair Market Value of a Share on the day immediately preceding the payment date. 

2.4 Forfeiture. 
 (a) In
consideration of the grant of this Award, and further as a material inducement for the Company to enter into this Agreement with Participant and to grant Participant this Award, Participant hereby acknowledges and agrees that Participant shall
continue to be bound by the Restrictive Covenants. In addition, if Participant fails to comply in all material respects with the Restrictive Covenants, then to the greatest extent permitted by Applicable Law (and except as otherwise determined by
the Administrator), any RSUs that have not yet been settled (whether vested or unvested) automatically will be forfeited and terminated without consideration therefor (provided that the Company shall provide Participant with written notice of any
such non-compliance and not less than 30 days to cure, if curable). 
 (b) Dividend Equivalents
(including any Dividend Equivalent Account balance) will be forfeited on the date the corresponding RSU is forfeited. 
 ARTICLE III.

 TAXATION AND TAX WITHHOLDING 

3.1 Representation. Participant represents to the Company that Participant has reviewed with Participant’s own tax advisors the
tax consequences of this award of RSUs and Dividend Equivalents (the “Award”) and the transactions contemplated by the Grant Notice and this Agreement. Participant is relying solely on such advisors and not on any statements
or representations of the Company or any of its agents. 
 3.2 Tax Withholding. 

(a) Payment of the withholding tax obligations with respect to the Award may be by any of the following, or a combination thereof, as
determined by [the Company in its sole discretion / Participant or the Administrator]: 
 (i) Cash or check; 

(ii) In whole or in part by delivery of Shares, including Shares delivered by attestation and Shares retained from the Award
creating the tax obligation, valued at their Fair Market Value on the date of delivery; or 
 (iii) In whole or in part by
the Company withholding of Shares otherwise vesting or issuable under this Award in satisfaction of any applicable withholding tax obligations. 

  
 5 

 (b) Subject to Section 9.5 of the Plan, the applicable tax withholding obligation will
be determined based on Participant’s Applicable Withholding Rate. Participant’s “Applicable Withholding Rate” shall mean (i) if Participant is subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, the greater of
(A) the minimum applicable statutory tax withholding rate or (B) with Participant’s consent, the maximum individual tax withholding rate permitted under the rules of the applicable taxing authority for tax withholding attributable to
the underlying transaction, or (ii) if Participant is not subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, the minimum applicable statutory tax withholding rate or such other higher rate approved by the Company; provided, however,
that (i) in no event shall Participant’s Applicable Withholding Rate exceed the maximum individual statutory tax rate in the applicable jurisdiction at the time of such withholding (or such other rate as may be required to avoid the
liability classification of the applicable award under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America); and (ii) the number of Shares tendered or withheld, if applicable, shall be rounded up to the nearest whole Share
sufficient to cover the applicable tax withholding obligation, to the extent rounding up to the nearest whole Share does not result in the liability classification of the RSUs under generally accepted accounting principles. 

(c) Participant acknowledges that Participant is ultimately liable and responsible for all taxes owed in connection with the RSUs and the
Dividend Equivalents, regardless of any action the Company or any Subsidiary takes with respect to any tax withholding obligations that arise in connection with the RSUs or Dividend Equivalents. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary makes any
representation or undertaking regarding the treatment of any tax withholding in connection with the awarding, vesting or payment of the RSUs or the Dividend Equivalents or the subsequent sale of Shares. The Company and its Subsidiaries do not commit
and are under no obligation to structure the RSUs or Dividend Equivalents to reduce or eliminate Participant’s tax liability. 
 3.3
Section 409A. 
 (a) General. To the extent applicable, this Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance
with Section 409A, including without limitation any such regulations or other guidance that may be issued after the effective date of this Agreement. 

(b) Non-qualified Deferred Compensation. Sections 10.6(b) and (c) of the Plan shall apply
to the RSUs, the Dividend Equivalents and this Agreement. For purposes of Section 409A, each RSU (and the right to payment with respect to each RSU) is to be treated as a right to a separate payment. Any Dividend Equivalents granted in
connection with the RSUs issued hereunder, and any amounts that may become distributable in respect thereof, shall be treated separately from such RSUs and the rights arising in connection therewith for purposes of the designation of time and form
of payments required by Section 409A. 
 ARTICLE IV. 

OTHER PROVISIONS 
 4.1
Adjustments. Participant acknowledges that the RSUs and the Shares subject to the RSUs and the Dividend Equivalents are subject to adjustment, modification and termination in certain events as provided in this Agreement and the Plan. 

4.2 Clawback. The Award and the Shares issuable hereunder shall be subject to any clawback or recoupment policy in effect on the Grant
Date or as may be adopted or maintained by the Company following the Grant Date, including the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and any rules or regulations promulgated thereunder. 

4.3 Notices. Any notice to be given under the terms of this Agreement to the Company must be in writing and addressed to the Company in
care of the Company’s General Counsel at the Company’s principal office or the General Counsel’s then-current email address or facsimile number. Any notice to be given under the terms of this Agreement to Participant must be in
writing and addressed to Participant (or, 

  
 6 

 
if Participant is then deceased, to the Designated Beneficiary) at Participant’s last known mailing address, email address or facsimile number in the Company’s personnel files. By a
notice given pursuant to this Section, either party may designate a different address for notices to be given to that party. Any notice will be deemed duly given when actually received, when sent by email, when sent by certified mail (return receipt
requested) and deposited with postage prepaid in a post office or branch post office regularly maintained by the United States Postal Service, when delivered by a nationally recognized express shipping company or upon receipt of a facsimile
transmission confirmation. 
 4.4 Titles. Titles are provided herein for convenience only and are not to serve as a basis for
interpretation or construction of this Agreement. 
 4.5 Conformity to Securities Laws. Participant acknowledges that the Plan, the
Grant Notice and this Agreement are intended to conform to the extent necessary with all Applicable Laws and, to the extent Applicable Laws permit, will be deemed amended as necessary to conform to Applicable Laws. 

4.6 Successors and Assigns. The Company may assign any of its rights under this Agreement to a single or multiple assignees, and this
Agreement will inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Company. Subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Agreement or the Plan, this Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the heirs, legatees,
legal representatives, successors and assigns of the parties hereto. 
 4.7 Limitations Applicable to Section 16
Persons. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or this Agreement, if Participant is subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, the Plan, the Grant Notice, this Agreement and the RSUs and the Dividend Equivalents will be subject to
any additional limitations set forth in any applicable exemptive rule under Section 16 of the Exchange Act (including any amendment to Rule 16b-3) that are requirements for the application of such
exemptive rule. To the extent Applicable Laws permit, this Agreement will be deemed amended as necessary to conform to such applicable exemptive rule. 

4.8 Entire Agreement; Amendment. The Plan, the Grant Notice and this Agreement (including any exhibit hereto) constitute the
entire agreement of the parties and supersede in their entirety all prior undertakings and agreements of the Company and Participant with respect to the subject matter hereof. To the extent permitted by the Plan, this Agreement may be wholly or
partially amended or otherwise modified, suspended or terminated at any time or from time to time by the Administrator or the Board; provided, however, that except as may otherwise be provided by the Plan, no amendment, modification, suspension or
termination of this Agreement shall materially and adversely affect the RSUs or Dividend Equivalents without the prior written consent of Participant. 

4.9 Agreement Severable. In the event that any provision of the Grant Notice or this Agreement is held illegal or invalid, the
provision will be severable from, and the illegality or invalidity of the provision will not be construed to have any effect on, the remaining provisions of the Grant Notice or this Agreement. 

4.10 Limitation on Participant’s Rights. Participation in the Plan confers no rights or interests other than as herein provided.
This Agreement creates only a contractual obligation on the part of the Company as to amounts payable and may not be construed as creating a trust. Neither the Plan nor any underlying program, in and of itself, has any assets. Participant will have
only the rights of a general unsecured creditor of the Company with respect to amounts credited and benefits payable, if any, with respect to the RSUs and Dividend Equivalents, and rights no greater than the right to receive cash or the Shares as a
general unsecured creditor with respect to the RSUs and Dividend Equivalents, as and when settled pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. 

  
 7 

 4.11 Not a Contract of Employment. Nothing in the Plan, the Grant Notice or this
Agreement confers upon Participant any right to continue in the employ or service of the Company or any Subsidiary or interferes with or restricts in any way the rights of the Company and its Subsidiaries, which rights are hereby expressly reserved,
to discharge or terminate the services of Participant at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without cause, except to the extent expressly provided otherwise in a written agreement between the Company or a Subsidiary and Participant. 

4.12 Counterparts. The Grant Notice may be executed in one or more counterparts, including by way of any electronic signature, subject
to Applicable Law, each of which will be deemed an original and all of which together will constitute one instrument.

1.2 Incorporation of Terms of Plan. The RSUs are subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Plan, which is
incorporated herein by reference. In the event of any inconsistency between the Plan and this Agreement, the terms of the Plan will control.

VESTING; FORFEITURE AND SETTLEMENT 

2.1 Vesting. The RSUs will vest according to the vesting schedule in the Grant Notice except that any fraction of an RSU that would
otherwise be vested will be accumulated and will vest only when a whole RSU has accumulated. Dividend Equivalents (including any Dividend Equivalent Account balance) will vest upon the vesting of the RSUs with respect to which the Dividend
Equivalent (including the Dividend Equivalent Account) relates. 
 2.2 Termination of Service. 

(a) Upon Participant’s Qualifying Termination, 100% of the unvested RSUs shall vest. 

(b) Upon Participant’s Death/Disability Termination, 100% of the unvested RSUs shall vest.

Termination, in either case, prior to a Change in Control, then the RSUs will be paid on the original Vesting Dates set forth in the Grant Notice. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the foregoing proviso, the exact payment date of
any RSUs and Dividend Equivalents shall be determined by the Company in its sole discretion (and Participant shall not have a right to designate the time of payment). 

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may delay any payment under this Agreement that the Company reasonably determines would violate
Applicable Law until the earliest date the Company reasonably determines the making of the payment will not cause such a violation (in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(7)(ii));

consideration of the grant of this Award, and further as a material inducement for the Company to enter into this Agreement with Participant and to grant Participant this Award, Participant hereby acknowledges and agrees that Participant shall
continue to be bound by the Restrictive Covenants. In addition, if Participant fails to comply in all material respects with the Restrictive Covenants, then to the greatest extent permitted by Applicable Law (and except as otherwise determined by

such non-compliance and not less than 30 days to cure, if curable). 
 (b) Dividend Equivalents
(including any Dividend Equivalent Account balance) will be forfeited on the date the corresponding RSU is forfeited. 
 ARTICLE III.

 TAXATION AND TAX WITHHOLDING 

3.1 Representation. Participant represents to the Company that Participant has reviewed with Participant’s own tax advisors the tax
consequences of this award of RSUs and Dividend Equivalents (the “Award”) and the transactions contemplated by the Grant Notice and this Agreement. Participant is relying solely on such advisors and not on any statements or
representations of the Company or any of its agents. 
 3.2 Tax Withholding. 

(a) Payment of the withholding tax obligations with respect to the Award may be by any of the following, or a combination thereof, as
determined by Participant or the Administrator: 
 (i) Cash or check; 

(ii) In whole or in part by delivery of Shares, including Shares delivered by attestation and Shares retained from the Award
creating the tax obligation, valued at their Fair Market Value on the date of delivery; or 
 (iii) In whole or in part by
the Company withholding of Shares otherwise vesting or issuable under this Award in satisfaction of any applicable withholding tax obligations. 

(b) Subject to Section 9.5 of the Plan, the applicable tax withholding obligation will be determined based on Participant’s
Applicable Withholding Rate. Participant’s “Applicable Withholding Rate” shall mean (i) if Participant is subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, the greater of (A) the minimum applicable statutory tax
withholding rate or (B) with Participant’s consent, the maximum individual tax withholding rate permitted under the rules of the applicable taxing authority for tax withholding attributable to the underlying transaction, or (ii) if
Participant is not subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, the minimum applicable statutory tax withholding rate or such other higher rate approved by the Company; provided, however, that (i) in no event shall
Participant’s Applicable Withholding Rate exceed the maximum individual statutory tax rate in the applicable jurisdiction at the time of such withholding (or such other rate as may be required to avoid the liability classification of the
applicable 

  
 4 

 
award under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America); and (ii) the number of Shares tendered or withheld, if applicable, shall be rounded up to the nearest
whole Share sufficient to cover the applicable tax withholding obligation, to the extent rounding up to the nearest whole Share does not result in the liability classification of the RSUs under generally accepted accounting principles. 

(c) Participant acknowledges that Participant is ultimately liable and responsible for all taxes owed in connection with the RSUs and the
Dividend Equivalents, regardless of any action the Company or any Subsidiary takes with respect to any tax withholding obligations that arise in connection with the RSUs or Dividend Equivalents. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary makes any
representation or undertaking regarding the treatment of any tax withholding in connection with the awarding, vesting or payment of the RSUs or the Dividend Equivalents or the subsequent sale of Shares. The Company and its Subsidiaries do not commit
and are under no obligation to structure the RSUs or Dividend Equivalents to reduce or eliminate Participant’s tax liability. 
 3.3
Section 409A. 
 (a) General. To the extent applicable, this Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance
with Section 409A, including without limitation any such regulations or other guidance that may be issued after the effective date of this Agreement. 

(b) Non-qualified Deferred Compensation. Sections 10.6(b) and (c) of the Plan shall apply
to the RSUs, the Dividend Equivalents and this Agreement. For purposes of Section 409A, each RSU (and the right to payment with respect to each RSU) is to be treated as a right to a separate payment. Any Dividend Equivalents granted in
connection with the RSUs issued hereunder, and any amounts that may become distributable in respect thereof, shall be treated separately from such RSUs and the rights arising in connection therewith for purposes of the designation of time and form
of payments required by Section 409A. 
 ARTICLE IV. 

OTHER PROVISIONS 
 4.1
Adjustments. Participant acknowledges that the RSUs and the Shares subject to the RSUs and the Dividend Equivalents are subject to adjustment, modification and termination in certain events as provided in this Agreement and the Plan. 

4.2 Clawback. The Award and the Shares issuable hereunder shall be subject to any clawback or recoupment policy in effect on the Grant
Date or as may be adopted or maintained by the Company following the Grant Date, including the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and any rules or regulations promulgated thereunder. 

4.3 Notices. Any notice to be given under the terms of this Agreement to the Company must be in writing and addressed to the Company in
care of the Company’s General Counsel at the Company’s principal office or the General Counsel’s then-current email address or facsimile number. Any notice to be given under the terms of this Agreement to Participant must be in
writing and addressed to Participant (or, if Participant is then deceased, to the Designated Beneficiary) at Participant’s last known mailing address, email address or facsimile number in the Company’s personnel files. By a notice given
pursuant to this Section, either party may designate a different address for notices to be given to that party. Any notice will be deemed duly given when actually received, when sent by email, when sent by certified mail (return receipt requested)
and deposited with postage prepaid in a post office or branch post office regularly maintained by the United States Postal Service, when delivered by a nationally recognized express shipping company or upon receipt of a facsimile transmission
confirmation.

 4.4 Titles. Titles are provided herein for convenience only and are not to serve as a
basis for interpretation or construction of this Agreement. 
 4.5 Conformity to Securities Laws. Participant acknowledges that the
Plan, the Grant Notice and this Agreement are intended to conform to the extent necessary with all Applicable Laws and, to the extent Applicable Laws permit, will be deemed amended as necessary to conform to Applicable Laws. 

4.6 Successors and Assigns. The Company may assign any of its rights under this Agreement to a single or multiple assignees, and this
Agreement will inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Company. Subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Agreement or the Plan, this Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the heirs, legatees,
legal representatives, successors and assigns of the parties hereto. 
 4.7 Limitations Applicable to Section 16
Persons. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or this Agreement, if Participant is subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, the Plan, the Grant Notice, this Agreement and the RSUs and the Dividend Equivalents will be subject to
any additional limitations set forth in any applicable exemptive rule under Section 16 of the Exchange Act (including any amendment to Rule 16b-3) that are requirements for the application of such
exemptive rule. To the extent Applicable Laws permit, this Agreement will be deemed amended as necessary to conform to such applicable exemptive rule. 

4.8 Entire Agreement; Amendment. The Plan, the Grant Notice and this Agreement (including any exhibit hereto) constitute the
entire agreement of the parties and supersede in their entirety all prior undertakings and agreements of the Company and Participant with respect to the subject matter hereof. To the extent permitted by the Plan, this Agreement may be wholly or
partially amended or otherwise modified, suspended or terminated at any time or from time to time by the Administrator or the Board; provided, however, that except as may otherwise be provided by the Plan, no amendment, modification, suspension or
termination of this Agreement shall materially and adversely affect the RSUs or Dividend Equivalents without the prior written consent of Participant. 

4.9 Agreement Severable. In the event that any provision of the Grant Notice or this Agreement is held illegal or invalid, the
provision will be severable from, and the illegality or invalidity of the provision will not be construed to have any effect on, the remaining provisions of the Grant Notice or this Agreement. 

4.10 Limitation on Participant’s Rights. Participation in the Plan confers no rights or interests other than as herein provided.
This Agreement creates only a contractual obligation on the part of the Company as to amounts payable and may not be construed as creating a trust. Neither the Plan nor any underlying program, in and of itself, has any assets. Participant will have
only the rights of a general unsecured creditor of the Company with respect to amounts credited and benefits payable, if any, with respect to the RSUs and Dividend Equivalents, and rights no greater than the right to receive cash or the Shares as a
general unsecured creditor with respect to the RSUs and Dividend Equivalents, as and when settled pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. 

4.11 Not a Contract of Employment. Nothing in the Plan, the Grant Notice or this Agreement confers upon Participant any right to
continue in the employ or service of the Company or any Subsidiary or interferes with or restricts in any way the rights of the Company and its Subsidiaries, which rights are hereby expressly reserved, to discharge or terminate the services of
Participant at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without cause, except to the extent expressly provided otherwise in a written agreement between the Company or a Subsidiary and Participant. 

  
 6 

 4.12 Counterparts. The Grant Notice may be executed in one or more counterparts,
including by way of any electronic signature, subject to Applicable Law, each of which will be deemed an original and all of which together will constitute one instrument.
