Effective [Grant Date] (the “Grant Date”), you have been granted a time-vesting restricted stock unit award (the "RSU"). The RSU is for a total of [Award Grant Amount] ordinary shares, par value $0.01 per share (the “Shares”), of Alkermes plc (the “Company”).

 

The RSU was granted under the Alkermes plc 2011 Stock Option and Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Plan”), and is governed by the terms and conditions thereof and of this award certificate (this “Award Certificate”). A copy of the Plan is posted on your local human resources page of the Company’s website. Unless otherwise defined in this Award Certificate, all capitalized terms used in this Award Certificate shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Plan.

 

Vesting details for the RSU are available via your Bank of America Merrill Lynch Benefits Online account. 

 

You must be employed by, or in another service relationship with, the Company on each vesting date in order to receive the Shares that vest on each such date.  For purposes of the RSU, and as set forth in Section 14 of the Plan, you will continue to be deemed employed by the Company for so long as you (x) remain employed by the Company or any Subsidiary, regardless of any transfer between the Company or such Subsidiary or between Subsidiaries, or any transfer from one eligibility category under Section 4 of the Plan to another, or (y) are on an approved leave of absence from the Company or any Subsidiary.

 

The Company will deliver to you a number of Shares equal to the number of vested Shares subject to your RSU within three business days of each applicable vesting date. Delivery of the Shares in settlement of your RSU is intended to comply with the requirements for the short-term deferral exemption available under Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) and shall be construed and administered in such manner.

 

In the event of the termination of your employment or other service relationship with the Company by reason of death or permanent disability, the RSU shall automatically vest and be exercisable in full effective upon such termination. 

 

The grant of the RSU does not infer any right to, or expectation of, the grant of any additional Awards on the same basis or at all, in any future year. Participation in the Plan shall in no way give you any rights to compensation for any claim of loss in relation to the Plan, including without limitation:

 

	
 
	
(a)
	
any loss or reduction of any rights or expectations under the Plan in any circumstances or for any reason (including lawful or unlawful termination of an employment relationship);
	
 

 

	
 
	
(b)
	
any exercise of a discretion or a decision taken in relation to an Award or to the Plan, or any failure to exercise a discretion or take a decision; or
	
 

 

	
 
	
(c)
	
the operation, suspension, termination or amendment of the Plan.
