purposes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may not delegate any portion of such authority to the extent such delegation would cause any Award to cease to qualify for exemption from the deduction limitations of Section 162(m) of the

 Section 5. Awards 
 5.1 Determination of Criteria for Awards. Within ninety (90) days after the commencement of each Plan Year, the Committee shall designate: 

(a) The Financial Criteria that will apply to Awards to all Participants for the Plan Year; and 

(b) The Performance Goals that must be met (whether on a corporate, divisional, team or individual basis) with respect to the
Financial Criteria designated for Participants to earn the Awards for the Plan Year and a payout matrix or formula for achievement of those Performance Goals. 
 5.2 Financial Criteria. Financial Criteria shall consist of one or more financial measures, including but not limited to the following: 

 

			
	 •    Earnings per share
	  	 •    Efficiency ratio

	 •    Core earnings
	  	 •    Loan growth

	 •    Return on assets
	  	 •    Deposit growth

	 •    Return on equity
	  	 •    Core deposit growth

	 •    Price earnings ratio
	  	 •    Asset quality

	 •    Total shareholder return
	  	 •    Net interest margin

	 •    Book value
	  	 •    Non-interest income

	 •    Stock price performance
	  	 •    Non-interest expense

	 •    Net income
	  	 •    Expenses as a percentage of assets

	 •    Operating income
	  	

 Any of the Financial Criteria may be applied on a corporate, divisional, team or individual basis. In addition, any of
the Financial Criteria may be measured by using average amounts for the Financial Criteria, in absolute terms, on a cash basis or operating basis, by reference to internal performance targets, or as compared to the Peer Group, or may be measured by
the change in that performance target compared to a previous period. Whenever the Committee designates a financial measure that is not a GAAP financial measure as one of the Financial Criteria for a Plan Year, the Committee shall, at the time it
designates such non-GAAP financial measure, specify the manner in which such non-GAAP financial measure is to be calculated and reconciled to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. 

5.3 Performance Goals. To determine the amount of Awards to Participants for a Plan Year, the Committee shall establish in
writing specific, objective performance goals (the “Performance Goals”), the outcome of which is substantially uncertain at the time they are established, for the Financial Criteria the Committee designates for that Plan Year against which
actual performance is to be measured. The Performance Goals may be described by means of a matrix or formula providing for goals resulting in the payment of Awards under the STIP. In the event that the Committee determines in good faith that
external changes or other unanticipated business conditions have materially affected the fairness of the goals and have unduly influenced the Company’s ability to meet them, the Committee may (but shall not be required to) make adjustments to
the Performance Goals. Examples of such events include but are not limited to: changes in GAAP; significant acquisitions or dispositions made by the Company; material changes in the monetary policy of the United States; material changes in national
or regional economic conditions affecting financial institutions generally; and changes in laws, regulations or regulatory policy affecting 

  
 3 

 
financial institutions generally where such changes are reasonably likely to have a material effect on the operating results of the Company. The Committee shall appropriately document its
analysis of the reasons for making adjustments to the Performance Goals, including a summary indicating how the fairness of the previously-established goals has been affected and the manner in which the Company’s ability to meet such goals has
been unduly influenced by such external changes or other unanticipated business conditions. 
 5.4 Payment
Deferral. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5.5 hereof, the Committee may in its discretion provide that payment of all or any portion of the amount to be paid out pursuant to an Award be deferred until a later specified date or
until the later attainment of specified conditions. Any such deferral provisions shall be consistent with the standards for nonqualified deferred compensation plans established by Section 409A of the Code and its interpretive regulations and
other regulatory guidance (if applicable), shall .be set forth in writing as part of the grant of the Award and shall be communicated to the Participant receiving such Award as promptly as practicable following the grant of the Award. 

5.5 Determination and Payment of Awards. As soon as practicable after the end of a Plan Year, the Committee shall determine
the amount of Awards earned by and to be paid to a Participant who is a Covered Employee and the total Awards to be paid in a Plan Year. The Committee shall determine the amount of the Award that each Participant has earned. The determination of the
amount of Awards earned by Participants will be made based on application of the Performance Goals in Section 5.3 to the Financial Criteria in Section 5.2 for the Plan Year. Actual payments will be determined based upon one or more of the
following, as designated by the Committee for individual Participants: (i) the Participant’s individual performance, (ii) the achievement of Performance Goals by the Participant’s division; (iii) the achievement of
Performance Goals by the Participant’s team and (iv) the overall achievement of Performance Goals by the Company; provided, however, that no such payment shall exceed the maximum amount of the Award made to such Participant for the
applicable Plan Year. Payment of the Awards will be made in cash (a) in a lump sum following the Committee’s determination of the amount of the Awards to be paid out in accordance with the Company’s then-applicable payroll schedule,
(b) at a later date in accordance with any payment deferral provisions established by the Committee in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.4, or (c) in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.7 if applicable.

 5.6 Employment Condition. Except as provided in Section 5.7, the Participant must remain actively employed
by the Company or one of its Affiliates on the date payment is to be made as contemplated by Section 5.5 (but without regard to any payment deferral provisions applicable to an Award) to be considered eligible for any potential payment under
this STIP. If an employee first becomes eligible to participate in the STIP during the Plan Year (e.g, by reason of a promotion or new hire) then the Award to which he or she would be entitled may, in the Committee’s discretion, be prorated
based upon the length of his or her employment during the Plan Year following his or her date of eligibility. The method and amount of proration shall be determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion. 

5.7 Payment After Death or Disability of Participant. (a) In the event a Participant dies following the end of a Plan
Year but prior to the date payment of the Participant’s Award is made pursuant to Section 5.5 hereof, the Participant’s Award shall be paid to the Participant’s estate at the time contemplated by the provisions of
Section 5.5 based on the extent to which applicable Performance Goals were attained for the Plan Year. In the event a Participant who has received an Award for a given Plan Year dies prior to the end of that Plan Year, a prorated portion (or,
at the Committee’s discretion, the entire portion) of the Participant’s Award shall be paid to the Participant’s estate as soon as reasonably practicable following the Participant’s death. The amount to be paid pursuant to the
preceding sentence shall be determined by assuming that all applicable Performance Goals had been attained (but not exceeded) for the Plan Year. 
 (b) In the event a Participant’s employment terminates following the end of a Plan Year by reason of the Participant’s disability and such termination occurs prior to the date payment of the
Participant’s Award is made pursuant to Section 5.5 hereof, the Participant’s Award shall be paid to the Participant at the time contemplated by the provisions of Section 5.5 based on the extent to which applicable Performance
Goals were attained for the Plan Year. In the event the employment of a 

  
 4 

 
Participant who has received an Award for a given Plan Year terminates by reason of the Participant’s disability prior to the end of that Plan Year, a prorated portion (or, at the
Committee’s discretion, the entire portion) of the Participant’s Award shall be paid to the Participant as soon as reasonably practicable following termination of the Participant’s employment. The amount to be paid pursuant to the
preceding sentence shall be determined by assuming that all applicable Performance Goals had been attained (but not exceeded) for the Plan Year.
 5.8 Maximum Payment. The maximum bonus amount payable under the STIP shall not exceed, for any Participant, up to 200% of his or her Award, as determined by the Committee in its discretion.
The maximum bonus amount that may be paid under the STIP to any Participant in any calendar year may in no event exceed $5 million. 
 5.9 Withholding. The Company shall have the right to withhold, or require a Participant to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy any applicable federal, state, or local withholding
tax requirements imposed with respect to the payment of any Award. 
 Section 6. General Provisions 

6.1 No Right to Bonus or Continued Employment. Neither the establishment of the STIP nor the provision for or payment of any
amounts hereunder nor any action of the Company or any of its Affiliates (including any predecessor or subsidiary), the Board or the Committee in respect of the STIP, shall be held or construed to confer upon any person any legal right to receive,
or any interest in, any benefit under the STIP, or any legal right to be continued in the employ of the Company or any of its Affiliates unless otherwise provided by contract or agreement. The Company and each of its Affiliates expressly reserves
any and all rights to discharge a Participant in its sole discretion, without liability of any person, entity or governing body under the STIP or otherwise. 
 6.2 No Funding of Plan. The Company shall not be required to fund or otherwise segregate any cash or any other assets which may at any time be paid to Participants under the STIP. The STIP
shall constitute an “unfunded” plan of the Company. 
 6.3 No Fiduciary Relationship or Responsibility.
The STIP is not subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”). The Company and the Committee are not fiduciaries with respect to the STIP and have no fiduciary obligation with respect to any
Participant, beneficiary, or other person claiming a right hereunder. Further, nothing herein contained, and no action or inaction arising pursuant hereto, shall give rise under state or federal law to a trust of any kind or create any fiduciary
relationship of any kind or degree for the benefit of Participants, any beneficiary, or any other person. 
 6.4
Non-Transferability of Benefits and Interests. Except as expressly provided by the Committee, no benefit payable under the STIP shall be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or
charge, and any such attempted action shall be void, and no such benefit shall be in any manner liable for or subject to debts, contracts, liabilities, engagements or torts of any Participant or former Participant. This Section 6.4 shall not
apply to an assignment of a payment due after the death of a Participant to the deceased Participant’s legal representative or beneficiary. 
 6.5 Code Section 409A. The STIP shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with the standards for nonqualified deferred compensation plans established by Section 409A
of the Code and its interpretive regulations and other regulatory guidance, if applicable. To the extent that any terms of this STIP would subject the Participant to gross income inclusion, interest, or additional tax pursuant to Section 409A
of the Code, those terms are to that extent superseded by, and shall be adjusted to the minimum extent necessary to satisfy or make the STIP exempt from, the applicable Code Section 409A standards. 

  
 5 

 6.6 Clawback Provision. If the Company is required to prepare an accounting
restatement due to the material noncompliance of the Company with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws, any Participant who was a Key Participant during the year(s) for which a restatement is required shall, unless otherwise
determined in the sole discretion of the Committee, reimburse the Company for any excess incentive payment amounts paid under the STIP the calculation(s) for which were based on financial results required to be restated. In calculating the excess
amount, the Committee shall compare the calculation of the incentive payment based on the relevant results reflected in the restated financials compared to the same results reflected in the original financials that were required to be restated.

 6.7 Law to Govern. Except as provided in Section 6.5 and otherwise to the extent preempted by federal law,
all questions pertaining to the construction, regulation, validity and effect of the provisions of the STIP shall be determined in accordance with the laws of the State of Connecticut. 

6.8 Section Headings. Section headings used herein are for convenience and reference only, and in the event of any
conflict, the text of the STIP, rather than the section headings, will control. 
 6.9 Severability. Whenever
possible, each provision of the STIP shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law; provided, however, that if any provision of the STIP shall be held to be prohibited or invalid under such applicable law,
such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this STIP. 

6.10 Non-Exclusivity. The STIP does not limit the authority of the Company or the Bank, the Board, the Committee, or the
Board of Directors of the Bank or any committee thereof to grant awards or authorize any other compensation under any other plan or authority. 

Section 7. Amendments, Suspension or Termination of Plan 
 The Committee may, from time to time, amend, suspend or terminate, in whole or in part, the STIP, and after any suspension or termination, may reinstate any or all of the provisions of the STIP; provided
no amendment, suspension or termination of the STIP shall in any manner affect any Award theretofore granted pursuant to the STIP without the consent of the Participant to whom the Award was granted.

 STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT 
 (Under the People’s United Financial, Inc.
2008 Long-Term Incentive Plan) 
 Granted To: NUF_OptioneeName_First_MI_Last 

(“you” or the “Participant”) 
 In accordance with the terms of the People’s United Financial, Inc. 2008 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), People’s United Financial, Inc. (the “Company) is pleased to grant
you a non-statutory stock option (the “Option”) to purchase Granted shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Optioned Shares”) at an Option Price of Grant_Price per share, representing the Fair Market Value of the Common
Stock on Grant_Date. The Option is exercisable at the times specified in Section 3 of this Agreement, and is subject to the other terms and conditions contained in this Agreement and in the Plan. 

You and the Company agree that the Option is subject to the following terms and conditions: 

1. Definitions. All of the terms and provisions of the Plan are incorporated into this Agreement by reference to the same effect as if
the Plan were set forth herein in its entirety. All terms used in this Agreement and defined in the Plan shall, unless otherwise defined herein, have the same meanings as in the Plan. The term “Common Stock” refers to the Company’s
Common Stock, par value $.01 per share, and includes any class or series of securities into which such capital stock may be changed, as contemplated by Section 13 of the Plan. The terms “affiliate”, “directors”,
“person”, and “security”, or any variations of such terms, shall have the broadest meanings assigned to them by the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the
“Exchange Act”). The terms “you” and “your” shall include, when the context requires, any persons entitled to exercise this Option by virtue of Section 6 of this Agreement. 

2. Term of Option. The Option is granted and made effective on Grant_Date (the “Grant Date”) and shall terminate, expire and no
longer be exercisable, to the extent not previously exercised or surrendered, on the tenth anniversary of the Grant Date, or at such earlier time as may be specified in the Plan or in Section 8 of this Agreement (the “Option Period”).

 3. Exercise of Option. Provided that the Option has not sooner expired and terminated in
accordance with the Plan or Section 8 hereof, the Option shall be exercisable commencing on the earlier of (a) the first day of the month following your Retirement, as to 100% of the Optioned Shares, or (b) the date of termination of
your employment by reason of your death or Disability, as to 100% of the Optioned Shares, or (c) the first day of the month in which the second anniversary of the Grant Date occurs, in the following percentage installments: 

 

			
	 Date Option
 Becomes Exercisable
	  	 Percentage of Optioned

Shares as to which the
 Option Becomes Exercisable

	(a) Commencing on second anniversary of the Grant Date	  	50% of Optioned Shares
		
	(b) Commencing on third anniversary of the Grant Date	  	25% of Optioned Shares
		
	(c) Commencing on fourth anniversary of the Grant Date	  	25% of Optioned Shares

 Once Optioned Shares have become available for purchase in accordance with the foregoing schedule, any
unpurchased shares included in an installment or part of an installment of the Optioned Shares shall remain subject to purchase on a cumulative basis until the Option expires or terminates in accordance with the Plan or Section 8 hereof. The
Option may not be exercised for fractional shares of Common Stock; all fractional shares shall be rounded to the nearest whole number below the actual number of shares. 
 4. Method of Exercise. You (or such other person as is provided in Section 6 hereof) may exercise the Option only by delivering written notice to the Company setting forth your irrevocable election
to purchase all or a designated part of any then matured installment or installments of the Optioned Shares. Subject to Section 8 hereof, the notice of exercise must be delivered to the Company on or before the close of business on a date which
is or precedes the last day of the Option Period, except that if the last day of the Option Period is a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which either the Company's corporate headquarters or the markets for equity securities generally are closed, the
notice shall be delivered before the close of business on the business day preceding the last day of the Option Period. 
 The
notice shall contain specific reference to this Agreement and the Plan and must be signed by you (or by such other person as is provided in Section 6 hereof). The notice shall be accompanied by payment in full of the Option Price by cash,
certified or bank check or, if the Committee consents, payment in full or in part may also be made in the form of Common Stock already owned by you, as provided in Section 7(g) of the Plan. If at any time this Agreement is in effect, you are or
potentially could be subject to Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, an election to make payment in full or in part in the form of Common Stock shall be subject to compliance with the provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the
Rules and Regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) promulgated thereunder, as interpreted by the Committee. No Optioned Shares shall be issued until full payment therefore has been made, including payment of all
applicable withholding taxes, or the Committee has approved arrangements for payment. 

  
 2 

 5. Withholding. With the express written consent of the Committee, upon the exercise of the
Option in accordance with the terms of Section 4 hereof, the Company, on behalf of the Company affiliate by which you are employed, will withhold the amount that it is required to withhold for federal, state, local or foreign withholding tax
purposes. In that event, withholding obligations will be settled by withholding from distribution to you a number of Optioned Shares having a Fair Market Value on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld otherwise would be withheld in cash
(the “Tax Date”) equal in value to the amount required to be withheld. If, at any time this Agreement is in effect, you are or potentially could be subject to Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, the method for settling withholding
obligations described herein shall be subject to compliance with the provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the Rules and Regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder, as interpreted by the Committee. 

6. Persons Entitled to Exercise. The Option may be exercised: 
 (a) except as provided below or in the Plan, only by you during your lifetime; 

(b) in the event of your death while in the employment of the Company (or one or more of its affiliates) (or following termination of
your employment by reason of your Retirement) by your legal representative or by the legal representative of your estate; and 

(c) in the event of your permanent Disability, by you or by your legal representative (as the case may be). 

In the event of your death while you are in the employment of the Company (or one or more of its affiliates), all Options remaining
unexercised as of the date of death may be exercised by the personal representative of your estate, including the executor under your will or an administrator with the will annexed, or the administrator of your estate in the event you should die
intestate; provided that such installments must be exercised, if at all, prior to the expiration of the Option Period. In the event of termination of your employment by reason of your permanent and total Disability, as that term is defined in
Section 22(e)(3) of the Code, all Options remaining unexercised at the time of termination of employment may be exercised by you or your legal representative (as the case may be), provided that such installments must be exercised, if at all,
prior to the expiration of the Option Period. Exercise of the Option by your representative or fiduciary or your estate shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and of the Plan and shall entitle such representative or
fiduciary to no greater part of the Optioned Shares than you could have acquired if you had exercised the Option at the time of your death or termination of employment by reason of permanent Disability. To the extent that any such representative or
fiduciary shall be entitled to exercise the Option in accordance with the provisions of Section 6 and the other sections of this Agreement, the terms “you” and “your” shall include such representative or fiduciary for
purposes of this Agreement. 
 7. Delivery of Certificates. The Company may postpone the time of delivery of certificates for
the Optioned Shares for such time as the Company deems necessary or desirable 

  
 3 

 
to enable it to comply with the listing requirements of any securities exchange or stock quotation system upon which the Common Stock may be listed or quoted, the requirements of the Securities
Act or the Exchange Act, any rules or regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission promulgated thereunder, or the requirements of applicable state laws relating to the authorization, issuance or sale of securities generally or bank
securities specifically. Until certificates representing Optioned Shares are delivered to you or transfer is effected by book entry on the stock transfer records of the Company, you will have no right to vote or receive dividends with respect to the
Optioned Shares. 
 8. Termination of Option Period. The Option shall lapse and terminate (i) on the date of termination of
your employment (or, if sooner, the expiration date of the Option Period), as to all of the Optioned Shares that either (A) are not yet exercisable on the date of such termination or (B) do not become exercisable at the time of such
termination pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and (ii) as to all of the Optioned Shares that are exercisable (but unexercised) on the date of termination of your employment, on the first to occur of the events listed in (a) through
(d) below: 
 (a) Expiration of the Option Period; or 

(b) Immediately, upon the termination of your employment for Cause; or 

(c) Expiration of three months after termination of your employment with the Company (or one or more of its affiliates) for any reason
other than death, Disability, Retirement or Cause; and this Agreement shall be of no further validity or effect, except with respect to Optioned Shares previously purchased; or 

(d) Expiration of one year after termination of your employment with the Company (or one or more of its affiliates) by reason of death,
Disability or Retirement; and this Agreement shall be of no further validity or effect, except with respect to Optioned Shares previously purchased. 
 9. Reservation of Shares. During the Option Period, the Company will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock, or from its treasury stock (or part from both), a sufficient number of shares to
provide for the delivery of the Optioned Shares upon exercise of the Option in accordance herewith and subject to the provisions of Section 7 hereof. If the Option should expire, lapse or otherwise become unexercisable for any reason specified
in or contemplated by this Agreement or the Plan, to the extent that the Option shall not have been exercised as to the full number of the Optioned Shares subject thereto, the unpurchased Optioned Shares shall be deemed freed automatically from any
such reservation and shall become immediately available for issuance and delivery pursuant to other option agreements under the Plan. 
 10. Corporate Law Status of Shares. The shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Option in accordance herewith, upon issuance, delivery and payment for such

  
 4 

 
shares in accordance with Section 7 of this Agreement, shall constitute validly issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company. When so paid for, such shares will be fully
paid and non-assessable. Throughout the Option Period (subject to the foreshortening thereof under Section 8 hereof), the Company will have full legal right and authority to issue and deliver the Optioned Shares as contemplated by this
Agreement. You shall have none of the rights of a shareholder until the Optioned Shares are in fact issued and delivered to you. 
 11. Adjustments in Optioned Shares. In the event of any changes in the capital structure or reorganization of the Company during the term of this Agreement, the provisions of Section 13 of the Plan
shall apply. 
 12. Restrictions on Transferability. Except as provided in Section 6 hereof, neither the Option nor any of
your rights, interests or benefits thereunder or hereunder shall be subject to voluntary or involuntary assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation or other form of absolute or conditional alienation or disposition, directly or indirectly. The
Option shall be unexercisable during any period in which there is in effect, and may be terminated in all respects by the Company in the event of, a purported assignment of the Option or of any such rights, interests or benefits thereunder or under
this Agreement, except as provided in Section 6 hereof. 
 13. Modification and Waiver. No modification or waiver of any of
the provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon either the Company or you unless made in writing and signed by you and countersigned on behalf of the Company by an executive officer thereof (other than you, if you should be or become such an
officer). 
 14. Binding Effect. Except as provided in Section 12 hereof, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to
the benefit of the parties hereto, their heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns. 
 15. Resolution of
Controversies. Any dispute or disagreement that may arise under, or in any way may relate to, the interpretation, construction or application of this Agreement shall be subject to determination by the Committee after appropriate notice to the
affected parties and reasonable opportunity to be heard by the Committee. Any determination made by the Committee shall be final, binding and conclusive for all purposes.
