 THE CHARLES SCHWAB CORPORATION 
 2004 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN 
 RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT
AGREEMENT 
 (PERFORMANCE-BASED VESTING) 
  

			
	Payment for Units	  	No payment is required for the Restricted Stock Units that you are receiving. Restricted Stock Units are an unfunded and unsecured obligation of Schwab.
		
	Vesting	  	Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, this award becomes vested as described in the Notice of Restricted Stock Unit Award, of which this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement is
a part. Unvested units will be considered “Restricted Stock Units.” If your service terminates for any reason, then your Restricted Stock Units will automatically and permanently be forfeited to the extent that they have not
vested before the termination date and will not vest as a result of the termination, unless otherwise noted below. This means that the Restricted Stock Units will immediately revert to Schwab. You will receive no payment for Restricted Stock Units
that are forfeited. Schwab determines when your service terminates for this purpose. For all purposes of this Agreement, “service” means continuous employment as a common-law employee of Schwab or a parent company or
subsidiary of Schwab, and “subsidiary” means a subsidiary corporation as defined in section 424(f) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).
		
	Accelerated Vesting	  	This award, to the extent not already forfeited, will become fully vested if your service terminates on account of your death or disability. If, prior to the date your service
terminates, Schwab is subject to a “change in control” (as defined in the Plan document), this award, to the extent not already forfeited, will become fully vested as of the date that the change in control
occurs.
		
	Continued Vesting	  	If your service terminates on account of your retirement and your retirement occurs at least two years after the Grant Date indicated in the Notice of Restricted Stock Unit
Award, you will be treated as in service in good standing for purposes of determining further vesting of the award.
		
		  	If you are entitled to severance benefits under The Charles Schwab Severance Pay Plan (or any successor plan), then you may be treated as in service in good standing during your
Severance Period for purposes of determining further vesting of the award under the terms

  

 3 

			
		  	of that plan.
		
	Definition of Fair Market Value	  	Fair market value means the average of the high and low price of a Share (as defined below) as reported on NASDAQ on the applicable determination date.
		
	Definition of Disability	  	For all purposes of this Agreement, “disability” means that you have a disability such that you have been determined to be eligible for benefits under
Schwab’s long-term disability plan.
		
	Definition of Retirement	  	If you are an employee of Schwab and its subsidiaries, “retirement” means termination of service for any reason other than death at any time after you attain
age 55, but only if, at the time of your termination, you have been credited with at least 10 years of service.
		
		  	The phrase “years of service” above has the same meaning given to it under The SchwabPlan Retirement Savings and Investment Plan (or any successor plan).

		
	Payment of Shares	  	Restricted Stock Units that vest will be paid in shares of Common Stock of The Charles Schwab Corporation (“Shares”) as soon as administratively possible following
vesting, but in no event beyond March 15th of the year
following the year of vesting.
		
	Restrictions on Restricted Stock Units	  	You may not sell, transfer, pledge or otherwise dispose of any Restricted Stock Units without Schwab’s written consent. Schwab will deliver Shares to you only after the
Restricted Stock Units vest and after all other terms and conditions in this Agreement have been satisfied.
		
		  	You may make a gift of Restricted Stock Units to your spouse, children or grandchildren or to a trust established by you for the benefit of yourself or your spouse, children or
grandchildren. However, a transferee of Restricted Stock Units must agree in writing on a form prescribed by Schwab to be bound by all provisions of this Agreement as a condition for the transfer prior to the Restricted Stock Units becoming vested.

		
	Delivery of Shares After Death	  	In the event of your death prior to the date your service terminates, your Shares will be delivered to your beneficiary or beneficiaries. You may designate one or more beneficiaries
by filing a beneficiary designation form. You may change your beneficiary designation by filing a new form with Schwab at any time prior to your death. If you do not designate a beneficiary or if your designated beneficiary

  

 4 

			
		  	predeceases you, then, your Shares will be delivered to your estate. The Compensation Committee, in its sole discretion, will determine the form and time of the distribution of
Shares to your estate. In no event will the payment be made beyond March 15th of the year following the year of death.
		
	Restrictions on Resale	  	You agree not to sell any Shares at a time when applicable laws, Schwab’s policies or an agreement between Schwab and its underwriters prohibit a sale. This restriction will
apply as long as your service continues and for such period of time after the termination of your service as Schwab may specify.
		
	Withholding Taxes	  	The Restricted Stock Units will not be paid in Shares unless you have made acceptable arrangements to pay any applicable withholding of income and employment taxes that may be due
as a result of this award. With Schwab’s consent, these arrangements may include without limitation withholding Shares that otherwise would be issued to you when this award vests. In its sole discretion, Schwab may withhold the minimum number
of whole Shares, valued at the fair market value on the Vesting Date, required to satisfy such applicable withholding taxes. Any residual amount of applicable withholding taxes, i.e., amounts of less than the fair market value of a Share, may be
deducted from your pay. If withholding taxes are due and you have terminated employment, applicable withholding taxes will be deducted from your Schwab brokerage account. You are responsible for having sufficient funds in your Schwab brokerage
account to cover the withholding taxes at the time they are due.
		
	No Stockholder Rights	  	Your Restricted Stock Units carry no voting or other stockholder rights. You have no rights as a Schwab stockholder until your units are settled by issuing Shares.
		
	Contribution of Par Value	  	On your behalf, Schwab will contribute to its capital an amount equal to the par value of the Shares issued to you.
		
	Dividend Equivalent Rights	  	If Schwab pays cash dividends on Shares, each Restricted Stock Unit will accrue a dividend equivalent equal to the cash dividend paid per Share, subject to the same vesting and
forfeiture provisions as the associated Restricted Stock Units, to be paid in cash without interest at the time the associated Restricted Stock Units vest and Shares are released. In no event will the accumulated dividend equivalent be paid beyond
March 15th of the year following the year in which the
associated Restricted Stock Units vest.

  

 5 

			
	No Right to Remain Employee	  	Nothing in this Agreement will be construed as giving you the right to be retained as an employee, contingent worker or director of Schwab and its subsidiaries for any specific
duration or at all.
		
	Limitation on Payments	  	If a payment from the Plan would constitute an excess parachute payment under section 280G of the Code or if there have been certain securities law violations, then your award
may be reduced or forfeited and you may be required to disgorge any profit that you have realized from your award.
		
		  	If a disqualified individual receives a payment or transfer under the Plan that would constitute an excess parachute payment under 280G of the Code, such payment will be reduced,
as described below. Generally, someone is a “disqualified individual” if he or she is (a) an officer of Schwab, (b) a member of the group consisting of the highest paid 1% of the employees of Schwab or, if less, the highest
paid 250 employees of Schwab, or (c) a 1% stockholder of Schwab. For purposes of the section on “Limitation on Payments,” the term “Schwab” will include affiliated corporations to the extent determined by the
independent auditors most recently selected by the Schwab Board of Directors (the “Auditors”) in accordance with section 280G(d)(5) of the Code.
		
		  	In the event that the Auditors determine that any payment or transfer in the nature of compensation to or for your benefit, whether paid or payable (or transferred or
transferable) pursuant to the terms of the Plan or otherwise (a “Payment”), would be nondeductible for federal income tax purposes because of the provisions concerning “excess parachute payments” in section 280G of
the Code, then the aggregate present value of all Payments will be reduced (but not below zero) to the Reduced Amount; provided, however, that the Compensation Committee may specify in writing that the award will not be so reduced and will not be
subject to reduction under this section.
		
		  	For this purpose, the “Reduced Amount” will be the amount, expressed as a present value, which maximizes the aggregate present value of the Payments
without causing any Payment to be nondeductible by Schwab because of section 280G of the Code.
		
		  	If the Auditors determine that any Payment would be nondeductible because of section 280G of the Code, then Schwab will promptly give you notice to that effect and a copy of the
detailed calculation of the Reduced Amount. You may then elect, in your discretion, which and how much of the Payments will be eliminated or reduced (as long as after such election, the aggregate present value of the

  

 6 

			
		  	Payments equals the Reduced Amount). You will advise Schwab in writing of your election within 10 days of receipt of the notice.
		
		  	If you do not make such an election within the 10-day period, then Schwab may elect which and how much of the Payments will be eliminated or reduced (as long as after such election
the aggregate present value of the Payments equals the Reduced Amount). Schwab will notify you promptly of its election. Present value will be determined in accordance with section 280G(d)(4) of the Code. The Auditors’ determinations will be
binding upon you and Schwab and will be made within 60 days of the date when a Payment becomes payable or transferable.
		
		  	As promptly as practicable following these determination and elections, Schwab will pay or transfer to or for your benefit such amounts as are then due to you under the Plan, and
will promptly pay or transfer to or for your benefit in the future such amounts as become due to you under the Plan.
		
		  	As a result of uncertainty in the application of section 280G of the Code at the time of an initial determination by the Auditors, it is possible that Payments will have been made
by Schwab which should not have been made (an “Overpayment”) or that additional Payments which will not have been made by Schwab could have been made (an “Underpayment”), consistent in each case with
the calculation of the Reduced Amount. In the event that the Auditors, based upon the assertion of a deficiency by the Internal Revenue Service against you or Schwab which the Auditors believe has a high probability of success, determine that an
Overpayment has been made, the amount of such Overpayment will be paid by you to Schwab on demand, together with interest at the applicable federal rate provided in section 7872(f)(2) of the Code. However, no amount will be payable by you to Schwab
if and to the extent that such payment would not reduce the amount which is subject to taxation under section 4999 of the Code. In the event that the Auditors determine that an Underpayment has occurred, such Underpayment will promptly be paid or
transferred by Schwab to or for your benefit, together with interest at the applicable federal rate provided in section 7872(f)(2) of the Code.
		
		  	Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will a payment be made under this Section beyond March 15th of the year following the year in which the amount ceases to be subject to a substantial risk of
forfeiture.

  

 7 

			
	Claims Procedure	  	You may file a claim for benefits under the Plan by following the procedures prescribed by Schwab. If your claim is denied, generally you will receive written or electronic
notification of the denial within 90 days of the date on which you filed the claim. If special circumstances require more time to make a decision about your claim, you will receive notification of when you may expect a decision. You may appeal the
denial by submitting to the Plan Administrator a written request for review within 30 days of receiving notification of the denial. Your request should include all facts upon which your appeal is based. Generally, the Plan Administrator will provide
you with written or electronic notification of its decision within 90 days after receiving the review request. If special circumstances require more time to make a decision about your request, you will receive notification of when you may expect a
decision.
		
	Plan Administration	  	The Plan Administrator has discretionary authority to make all determinations related to this award and to construe the terms of the Plan, the Notice of Restricted Stock Unit
Award and this Agreement. The Plan Administrator’s determinations are conclusive and binding on all persons.
		
	Adjustments	  	In the event of a stock split, a stock dividend or a similar change in Schwab stock, the number of Restricted Stock Units that remain subject to forfeiture shall be adjusted
accordingly.
		
	Severability	  	In the event that any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable, the provision will be severable from, and such invalidity or unenforceability will not be
construed to have any effect on, the remaining provisions of this Agreement.
		
	Applicable Law	  	This Agreement will be interpreted and enforced under the laws of the State of Delaware (without regard to their choice-of-law provisions), as such laws are applied to contracts
entered into and performed in Delaware.

  

 8 

			
	The Plan and Other Agreements	  	The text of the Plan is incorporated in this Agreement by reference. This Agreement, the Notice of Restricted Stock Unit Award and the Plan constitute the entire understanding
between you and Schwab regarding this award. Any prior agreements, commitments or negotiations concerning this award are superseded. This Agreement may be amended only by another written agreement, signed by both parties and approved by the
Compensation Committee. If there is any inconsistency or conflict between any provision of this Agreement and the Plan, the terms of the Plan will control.

	Payment for Units	  	No payment is required for the Restricted Stock Units that you are receiving. Restricted Stock Units are an unfunded and unsecured obligation of Schwab.

		  	(2)	  	Your death.
			
		  	(3)	  	Your disability.
			
		  	(4)	  	Your separation from service, if the separation qualifies as a retirement or a severance eligible termination (provided that vesting shall occur upon a severance eligible
termination only to the extent provided in The Charles Schwab Severance Pay Plan (or any successor plan)).
			
		  	(5)	  	A change in control.
		
		  	Unvested units will be considered “Restricted Stock Units.” If your service terminates for any reason, then your Restricted Stock Units will be
forfeited to the extent that they have not vested before the termination date and do not vest as a result of the termination. This means that the Restricted Stock Units will immediately revert to Schwab. You will receive no payment for Restricted
Stock Units that are forfeited. Schwab determines when your service terminates for this purpose. For all purposes of this Agreement, “service” means continuous employment as a common-law employee of Schwab or a parent
corporation or subsidiary of Schwab, and “subsidiary” means a subsidiary corporation as defined in section 424(f) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

	Definition of Disability	  	For all purposes of this Agreement, “disability” means that you have a disability that qualifies as such under section 409A of the Code and due
to which you have been determined to be eligible for benefits under Schwab’s long-term disability plan.
		
	Definition of Retirement	  	If you are an employee of Schwab and its subsidiaries, “retirement” means a separation from service for any reason other than death at any time
after you attain age 55, but only if, at the time of your separation, you have been credited with at least 10 years of service and have completed at least two years of service after the Grant Date indicated in the Notice of Restricted Stock Unit
Award.
		
		  	The phrase “years of service” above has the same meaning given to it under The SchwabPlan Retirement Savings and Investment Plan (or any
successor plan).
		
	Definition of Severance Eligible Termination	  	For all purposes of this Agreement, “severance eligible termination” means a separation from service entitling you to severance benefits under
The Charles Schwab Severance Pay Plan (or any successor plan).
		
	Definition of Change in Control	  	For all purposes of this Agreement, “change in control” means an event that qualifies as a change in control event under section 409A of the Code
and as a change in control as defined in the Plan.
		
	Definition of Separation From Service	  	For all purposes of this Agreement, “separation from service” means a separation from service as defined under section 409A of the

time of your separation from service, you are a “specified employee”, you will receive your Shares six months after your separation from service. “Specified Employee” means a “specified employee” within the meaning of
section 409A of the Code and any regulatory guidance promulgated thereunder, provided that in determining the compensation of individuals for this purpose, the definition of compensation in Treas. Reg. § 1.415(c)-2(d)(2) shall be used.

		
	Restrictions on Stock Units	  	You may not sell, transfer, pledge or otherwise dispose of any Restricted Stock Units without Schwab’s written consent. Schwab will deliver Shares to you only after
the Restricted Stock Units vest and after all other terms and conditions in this Agreement have been satisfied.
		
		  	You may make a gift of Restricted Stock Units to your spouse, children or grandchildren or to a trust established by you for the benefit of yourself or your spouse,
children or grandchildren. However, a transferee of Restricted Stock Units must agree in writing on a form prescribed by Schwab to be bound by all provisions of this Agreement as a condition for the transfer prior to the Restricted Stock Units
becoming vested.

beneficiaries by filing a beneficiary designation form. You may change your beneficiary designation by filing a new form with

		  	Schwab at any time prior to your death. If you do not designate a beneficiary or if your designated beneficiary predeceases you, then your Shares will be delivered to
your estate.
		
	Restrictions on Resale	  	You agree not to sell any Shares at a time when applicable laws, Schwab’s policies or an agreement between Schwab and its underwriters prohibit a sale. This
restriction will apply as long as your service continues and for such period of time after the termination of your service as Schwab may specify.
		
	Withholding Taxes	  	Shares will not be distributed unless you have made acceptable arrangements to pay any applicable withholding taxes that may be due as a result of the distribution. With
Schwab’s consent, these arrangements may include without limitation withholding Shares that otherwise would be distributed to you. In its sole discretion, Schwab may withhold the minimum number of whole Shares, valued at the fair market value
on the Vesting Date, required to satisfy such applicable withholding taxes. Any residual amount of applicable withholding taxes, i.e., amounts of less than the fair market value of a Share, may be deducted from your pay. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, any withholding taxes due prior to distribution of Shares (e.g., under section 3121(v)(2) of the Code) shall be automatically deducted from your pay, and you may not make any election as to how these withholding taxes are paid. If
withholding taxes are due and you have terminated employment, applicable withholding taxes will be deducted from your Schwab brokerage account. You are responsible for having sufficient funds in your Schwab brokerage account to cover these
withholding taxes at the time they are due.
		
	No Stockholder Rights	  	Your Restricted Stock Units carry no voting or other stockholder rights. You have no rights as a Schwab stockholder until your Restricted Stock Units are settled by
issuing Shares.
		
	Contribution of Par Value	  	On your behalf, Schwab will contribute to its capital an amount equal to the par value of the Shares issued to you.
		
	Dividend Equivalent Rights	  	If Schwab pays cash dividends on Shares, you will receive cash equal to the dividend per Share multiplied by the

  

 6 

					
		  	number of unvested Restricted Stock Units. Each such payment shall be made as soon as practicable following the payment of the actual dividend, but in no event beyond
March 15th of the year following the year the actual
dividend is paid.
		
	No Right to Remain Employee	  	Nothing in this Agreement will be construed as giving you the right to be retained as an employee, contingent worker or director of Schwab and its subsidiaries for any
specific duration or at all.
		
	Limitation on Payments	  	If a payment from the Plan would constitute an excess parachute payment under 280G of the Code or if there have been certain securities law violations, then your award
may be reduced or forfeited and you may be required to disgorge any profit that you have realized from your award.
		
		  	If a disqualified individual receives a payment or transfer under the Plan that would constitute an excess parachute payment under 280G of the Code, such payment will be
reduced, as described below. Generally, someone is a “disqualified individual” if he or she is (a) an officer of Schwab, (b) a member of the group consisting of the highest paid 1% of the employees of Schwab or, if less, the
highest paid 250 employees of Schwab, or (c) a 1% stockholder of Schwab. For purposes of the section on “Limitation on Payments,” the term “Schwab” will include affiliated corporations to the extent determined by
the independent auditors most recently selected by the Schwab Board of Directors (the “Auditors”) in accordance with section 280G(d)(5) of the Code.

transferable) pursuant to the terms of the Plan or otherwise (a “Payment”), would be nondeductible for federal income tax purposes because of the provisions concerning “excess parachute payments” in section 280G of
the Code, then the aggregate present value of all Payments will be reduced (but not below zero) to the Reduced Amount; provided, however, that the Compensation Committee may specify in writing that the award will not be so reduced and will not be
subject to reduction under this section.

  

 7 

					
		  	For this purpose, the “Reduced Amount” will be the amount, expressed as a present value, which maximizes the aggregate present value of the
Payments without causing any Payment to be nondeductible by Schwab because of section 280G of the Code.
		
		  	If the Auditors determine that any Payment would be nondeductible because of section 280G of the Code, then Schwab will promptly give you notice to that effect and a
copy of the detailed calculation of the Reduced Amount. The Auditors will determine which and how much of the Payments will be eliminated or reduced (such that the aggregate present value of the Payments equals the Reduced Amount). Schwab will
notify you promptly of the Auditor’s determination. Present value will be determined in accordance with section 280G(d)(4) of the Code. The Auditors’ determinations will be binding upon you and Schwab and will be made within 60 days of the
date when a Payment becomes payable or transferable.
		
		  	As a result of uncertainty in the application of section 280G of the Code at the time of an initial determination by the Auditors, it is possible that Payments will have

that an Overpayment has been made, the amount of such Overpayment will be paid by you to Schwab on demand, together with interest at the applicable federal rate provided in section 7872(f)(2) of the Code. However, no amount will be payable by you to
Schwab if and to the extent that such payment would not reduce the amount which is subject to taxation under section 4999 of the Code. In the event that the Auditors determine that an Underpayment has occurred, such Underpayment will promptly be
paid or transferred by Schwab to or for your benefit, together with interest at the applicable federal rate provided in section 7872(f)(2) of the Code, provided that no such Underpayment related to Shares distributable under this Agreement shall be
paid beyond the deadline for making such payments under section 409A of the Code.

	Claims Procedure	  	You may file a claim for benefits under the Plan by following the procedures prescribed by Schwab. If your claim is denied, generally you will receive written or
electronic notification of the denial within 90 days of the date on which you filed the claim. If special circumstances require more time to make a decision about your claim, you will receive notification of when you may expect a decision. You may
appeal the denial by submitting to the Plan Administrator a written request for review within 30 days of receiving notification of the denial. Your request should include all facts upon which your appeal is based. Generally, the Plan Administrator
will provide you with written or electronic notification of its decision within 90 days after receiving the review request. If special circumstances require more time to make a decision about your request, you will receive notification of when you
may expect a decision.
		
	Plan Administration	  	The Plan Administrator has discretionary authority to make all determinations related to this award and to construe the terms of the Plan, the Notice of Restricted Stock
Unit Award and this Agreement. The Plan Administrator’s determinations are conclusive and binding on all persons.
		
	Adjustments	  	In the event of a stock split, a stock dividend or a similar change in Schwab stock, the number of Restricted Stock Units that remain subject to forfeiture will be
adjusted accordingly.
