This
letter agreement is entered into as of July     , 2008

and Vivendi S.A. (“Vivendi”).

 

Each
of Activision Blizzard (formerly known as Activision, Inc.), Vivendi, VGAC
LLC and Vivendi Games, Inc. (“Games”) are party to that certain
Investor Agreement dated as of July     , 2008 (the “Investor
Agreement”).

 

Among
other provisions of the Investor Agreement, Section 2.3 of the Investor

other compensation and benefits required to be paid or provided under the
employment agreement, dated as of January 12, 2004, between Vivendi and
Jean-François Grollemund (“Grollemund”), as amended from time to time
(the “JFG Employment Agreement”). 
In addition, Section 2.3 of the Investor Agreement provides that
Activision Blizzard or Games reimburse Vivendi for any contributions made by
Vivendi or any of its Controlled Affiliates (other than Activision Blizzard and
its Subsidiaries) to the French social security system in respect of the
employment of Grollemund.  On or about
the date hereof, Activision Blizzard and Grollemund are entering into an
agreement pursuant to which Grollemund will be employed by Activision Blizzard,
which recognizes and agrees that Grollemund is also party to the JFG Employment
Agreement, which JFG Employment Agreement shall remain in place and continue to
provide to him certain payments and benefits.

 

This
letter agreement is a confirmation and agreement by each of Activision Blizzard
and Vivendi that (a) within thirty (30) days after any contribution relating to Grollemund is
made by Vivendi or any of its Controlled Affiliates (as defined in the
Investor Agreement) to the Vivendi
retirement pension scheme, Vivendi shall provide Activision Blizzard and
Games with a statement setting forth,
in reasonable detail, the amount of such contribution, if any, in respect of
Grollemund’s employment with Activision Blizzard provided such amount shall not
exceed $200,000 per year of Grollemund’s employment by Activision Blizzard (pro
rated for any partial years), and within ten (10) business days
after Activision Blizzard’s
receipt of such statement, Activision Blizzard or Games shall pay to Vivendi an
amount in cash equal to such amount as set forth therein; (b) the amount
described in subsection (a) above shall be the only obligation of Activision Blizzard or any of its Controlled
Affiliates with respect to any pension obligation or other retirement
obligation under any Vivendi retirement pension scheme in respect of
Grollemund; (c) Activision Blizzard and its Controlled Affiliates shall
have no liability or obligation with respect to the payment of benefits accrued
by Grollemund under any Vivendi retirement pension scheme; and (d) nothing
herein is intended to, or shall be otherwise deemed to, amend Sections 2.1 or
2.3 of the Investor Agreement, including without limitation pursuant to which
Activision Blizzard or Games shall continue to reimburse Vivendi for Vivendi’s
contributions to the French social security system in respect of Grollemund for
so long as he remains an employee of Activision Blizzard or any of its
subsidiaries.  Vivendi agrees to
indemnify Activision Blizzard and its Controlled Affiliates against any claim
by Grollemund (or his beneficiaries) or by any French governmental entity that
Activision Blizzard or any of its Controlled Affiliates is required to make any

 

 

contribution
to a pension paid or payable by Vivendi or any of its Controlled
Affiliates (whether pursuant to
the JFG Employment Agreement or otherwise) to Grollemund or to any French
social security system in respect of Grollemund.  Each of Activision Blizzard and Vivendi agree
that nothing herein shall amend or modify the terms of the Investor Agreement
as in effect prior to the execution of this letter.

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this

HITTITE MICROWAVE CORPORATION

 

FORM OF EMPLOYEE’S RESTRICTED STOCK
AGREEMENT

 

1. Restricted
Stock Award.  Hittite
Microwave Corporation (the “Company”)
has granted to                         
(the “Grantee”), a
restricted stock award (the “Award”),
pursuant to the Company’s 2005 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), of                       shares (the “Shares”) of common stock, $0.01 par value (“Common Stock”), of the Company, subject to
the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan.  Except where the context otherwise requires,
the term “Company” shall include the parent and all present and future
subsidiaries of the Company as defined in Sections 424(e) and 424(f) of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended or replaced from time to time
(the “Code”). Capitalized terms
used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them
in the Plan.

 

2. Forfeitable
Shares and Vested Shares.  All
Shares shall be deemed to be “Forfeitable Shares” until the Company’s right of
forfeiture, described in Section 4, below, has expired (and the Grantee’s
right to retain such shares has accrued) in accordance with the vesting
schedule set forth in Section 3. 
Forfeitable Shares shall be subject to forfeiture as described in Section 4,
below.  “Vested Shares” are Shares held by the Grantee as to which the
Company’s right of forfeiture has expired (and the Grantee’s right to retain
has accrued) based on the stock vesting schedule.  All certificates representing Forfeitable
Shares shall remain in the possession of the Company until such shares become
Vested Shares in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

 

3. Vested
Shares; Vesting Schedule.  The
Company’s right of Forfeiture shall expire and the Shares shall become Vested
Shares in accordance with the following schedule:

 

(a) One-third
(33 1/3%) of the total number of  Shares
shall become Vested Shares on the third anniversary of the vesting date of                         (the “Vesting Date”); and

 

(b) The
remaining Shares shall become Vested Shares on the fifth anniversary of the
Vesting Date.

 

4. Forfeiture of Shares.

 

4.1 Forfeiture.  If for any reason
the Grantee ceases to be employed by the Company (including, without
limitation, by reason of the Grantee’s voluntary resignation or the Company’s
dismissal of the Grantee for any reason, with or without cause) then all Shares
which as of the date of such termination of employment constitute Forfeitable
Shares shall be forfeited to the Company without payment of any consideration by
the Company.  There shall be no further
accruals under the vesting schedule, and no further Forfeitable Shares shall
become Vested Shares, from and after the date of any such termination of
employment.

 

 

4.2 Death or Disability.  In the event of the death or Disability of
the Grantee, the vesting of the Shares under the Vesting Schedule shall be
automatically accelerated so that all Shares become Vested Shares, effective as
of the date of death or Disability. The Committee  shall have sole authority and discretion to
determine whether the Grantee’s employment has been terminated by reason of
Disability.

 

4.3  Normal
Retirement.  In the event of the normal retirement of the
Grantee, then the vesting of the Shares shall be automatically accelerated so
that all Shares become Vested Shares, effective as of the date of
retirement.  The Committee shall have
sole authority and discretion to determine whether the Grantee’s employment has
been terminated by reason of normal retirement.

 

4.4 Forfeiture of Forfeitable Shares.  The Grantee’s rights in all Forfeitable
Shares shall terminate automatically on the date of the Grantee’s termination
of employment, and the Company may thereupon cancel the certificate or
certificates representing such Forfeitable Shares on its books.  In the event that the certificates then being
retained by the Company under this Agreement also represent other shares of
Common Stock not being forfeited to the Company, the Company shall issue to the
Grantee replacement certificates for such other shares.

 

4.5 Nontransferability of  Shares.  No Shares may be
transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated in any way (whether by operation
of law or otherwise) or otherwise disposed of prior to their becoming Vested
Shares.  Upon any attempt to transfer,
assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of any Forfeitable Shares, or
upon the levy of any attachment or similar process upon Forfeitable Shares, the
Company shall have a right of Forfeiture with respect to such Forfeitable
Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Grantee may transfer any Shares
either during his or her lifetime or on death by will or intestacy to one or
more members of his or her immediate family or to a trust the beneficiaries of
which are exclusively the undersigned and/or a member or members of his or her
immediate family; provided, however, that prior to any such transfer each
transferee shall execute an agreement, satisfactory to the Company, pursuant to
which each transferee shall agree to receive and hold such Shares subject to
the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, the Company’s right of
forfeiture with respect to any Shares so transferred that constitute
Forfeitable Shares), and there shall be no further transfer except in
accordance with the provisions hereof. 
For the purposes of this paragraph, “immediate family” shall mean
spouse, lineal descendent, father, mother, brother or sister of the transferor.

 

5. No
Special Employment Rights. 
Nothing contained in the Plan or this Agreement shall confer upon the
Grantee any right with respect to the continuation of his or her employment by
the Company or interfere in any way with the right of the Company at any time
to terminate such employment or to increase or decrease the Grantee’s
compensation.

 

6. Rights
as a Shareholder.  The Grantee
shall have the rights of a shareholder with respect to all of the Forfeitable
Shares and the Vested Shares held by the Grantee (including, without
limitation, any rights to vote and to receive dividends or non-cash distributions
with respect to such shares) unless and until the Company exercises its right
of Forfeiture as to any or all of the Forfeitable Shares in accordance with Section 4.

7.
Availability of Tax Election: Withholding.

 

(a)  Grantee acknowledges that the
Company has advised the Grantee of the possibility of making an election under Section 83(b) of
the Code with respect to the Award of the Shares and has recommended that the
Grantee consult a qualified tax advisor regarding the desirability of making
such an election in light of the Grantee’s individual circumstances.

 

(b)  Grantee shall, no later than the
date as of which the value of any Shares first becomes includable in the gross
income of the Grantee for Federal income tax purposes, pay to the Company, or
make arrangements satisfactory to the Committee regarding payment of any
Federal, state, local and/or payroll taxes of any kind required by law to be
withheld with respect to such income. 
The Company and its Affiliates shall, to the extent permitted by law,
have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise
due to the participant.

 

(c)  Grantee may elect to have such tax
withholding obligation satisfied, in whole or in part, by (i) authorizing
the Company to withhold from the Shares a number of shares with an aggregate
Fair Market Value (as defined in the Plan, and determined of the date the
withholding is effected) that would satisfy the withholding amount due with
respect to such Award, or (ii) delivering to the Company a number of
Shares with an aggregate Fair Market Value (as of the date the withholding is
effected) that would satisfy the withholding amount due.

 

8. Miscellaneous.

 

8.1 By accepting this Award,
Grantee agrees that, if so requested by the Company or by the underwriters
managing any underwritten offering of the Company’s securities, the recipient
will not, without the prior written consent of the Company or such
underwriters, as the case may be, sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any
option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any shares subject to any
such Award during the Lock-up Period, as defined below. The “Lock-Up Period”
shall mean a period of time not exceeding 180 days or, if greater, such number
of days as shall have been agreed to by each director and executive officer of
the Company in a substantially similar lock-up agreement by which each such
director and executive officer is bound. If requested by the Company or such
underwriters, the Grantee will enter into an agreement with such underwriters
consistent with the foregoing.

 

8.2 Any certificate representing Shares shall
be subject to a legend in substantially the following form:

 

“THE SHARES OF STOCK EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO AND
ARE TRANSFERABLE ONLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THAT CERTAIN RESTRICTED STOCK
AGREEMENT DATED                          
..  ANY ATTEMPTED TRANSFER OF THE
SHARES OF STOCK EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE IN VIOLATION OF SUCH AGREEMENT
SHALL BE NULL AND VOID AND WITHOUT EFFECT. 
A COPY OF THE AGREEMENT MAY BE OBTAINED FREE OF CHARGE FROM THE
SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY.”

 

8.3 Grantee hereby agrees to execute and
deliver to the Secretary of the Company a stock power (endorsed in blank)
hereto covering this Award and authorizes the Secretary to deliver to the
Company for cancellation any and all Shares that are forfeited or withheld
under

 

3

 

the provisions of this Agreement.

 

8.4 Except as provided herein, this Agreement
may not be amended or otherwise modified unless evidenced in writing and signed
by the Company and the Grantee.

 

8.5 All notices under this Agreement shall be
mailed or delivered by hand to the parties at their respective addresses set
forth beneath their names below or at such other address as may be designated
in writing by either of the parties to one another.

 

8.6 This Agreement shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts,
without regard to its principles of conflicts of laws.

 

8.7 This Agreement is and shall be subject in
every respect to the provisions of the Plan, as amended from time to time,
which is incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof.

 

8.8 This Agreement  is executed in two (2) counterpart
originals, one (1) to be retained by the Grantee and one (1) to be
retained by the Company.
