Exhibit 10.1

INPHI CORPORATION

 

2010 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN

 

STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT – U.S. AND NON-U.S. EMPLOYEES AND CONSULTANTS

 

Capitalized terms that are used herein but not defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Inphi Corporation 2010 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”).

 

	
Payment for 
Stock Units
	
  
	
No cash payment is required for the Stock Units you receive. You are receiving the Stock Units in consideration for Services rendered by you.

	  	  
	
Vesting
	
  
	
The Stock Units that you are receiving will vest in installments, as shown in the Notice of Stock Unit Award – U.S. and Non-U.S. Employees and Consultants (the “Notice”). No additional Stock Units vest after your Service as an Employee or a Consultant has terminated for any reason. For purposes of this stock unit, Service shall terminate if and when you cease to provide Service, notwithstanding that you may be subject to a period of notice or garden leave protection that arises under statute, contract or at common law in the jurisdiction in which you reside or under the terms of an employment agreement, if any.  The Company determines when your Service terminates for this purpose and all purposes under the Plan and its determinations are conclusive and binding on all persons.

	  	  
	
Forfeiture
	
  
	
If your Service terminates for any reason, your Award expires immediately as to the number of Stock Units that have not vested before the termination date and do not vest as a result of termination. This means that the unvested Stock Units will immediately be cancelled. You receive no payment for Stock Units that are forfeited.

	  	  
	
Leaves of

Absence
	
  
	
For purposes of this Award, your Service does not terminate when you go on a military leave, a sick leave or another bona fide leave of absence, if the leave of absence was approved by the Company in writing and if continued crediting of Service is required by the terms of the leave. But your Service will terminate when the approved leave ends, unless you immediately return to work.

If you go on a leave of absence, the vesting schedule specified in the Notice may be adjusted in accordance with the Company's leave of absence policy or the terms of your leave. If you commence working on a part-time basis, the vesting schedule specified in the Notice of Stock Unit Award – U.S. and Non-U.S. Employees and Consultants may be adjusted in accordance with the Company's part-time work policy or the terms of an agreement between you and the Company pertaining to your part-time schedule.

	  	  
	
Nature of 
Stock Units
	
  
	
Your Stock Units are mere bookkeeping entries. They represent only the Company's unfunded and unsecured promise to issue Shares on a future date. As a holder of Stock Units, you have no rights other than the rights of a general creditor of the Company.

	  	  
	
No Voting Rights

or Dividends
	
  
	
Your Stock Units carry neither voting rights nor rights to dividends. You, or your estate or heirs, have no rights as a stockholder of the Company unless and until your Stock Units are settled by issuing Shares. No adjustments will be made for dividends or other rights if the applicable record date occurs before your Shares are issued, except as described in the Plan.

	  	  
	
Stock Units

Nontransferable
	
  
	
You may not sell, transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise dispose of any Stock Units. For instance, you may not use your Stock Units as security for a loan. If you attempt to do any of these things, your Stock Units will immediately become invalid.

	  	  
	
Settlement of 

Stock Units
	
  
	
Each of your vested Stock Units will be settled when it vests.

 

At the time of settlement, you will receive one Share for each vested Stock Unit; provided, however, that no fractional Shares will be issued or delivered pursuant to the Plan or this Agreement, and the Committee will determine whether cash will be paid in lieu of any fractional Share or whether such fractional Share and any rights thereto will be canceled, terminated or otherwise eliminated. In addition, the Shares are issued to you subject to the condition that the issuance of the Shares not violate any law or regulation concerning Share issuance. Further, the Shares are issued to you subject to the condition that all Tax-Related Items (as defined in the Responsibility for Taxes Section below) are paid.

 

 STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT - U.S. AND NON-U.S. EMPLOYEES AND CONSULTANTS

 

-1-

 

 

	
Responsibility 
for Taxes
	
  
	
You acknowledge that, regardless of any action taken by the Company or, if different, the Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate retaining you, the ultimate liability for all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or other tax related items related to your participation in the Plan and legally applicable to you (“Tax-Related Items”), is and remains your responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate. You further acknowledge that the Company and/or the Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate (i) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Stock Units, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting or settlement of the Stock Unit, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such issuance and the receipt of any dividends; and (ii) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Stock Units to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if you are subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction between the Date of Grant and the date of any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, you acknowledge that the Company and/or the Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.

 

Prior to the relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, you agree to make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, you authorize the Company and/or the Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy the obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following: 

 

(1)     withholding from your wages or other cash compensation paid to you by the Company and/or the Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate; 

 

(2)     withholding from proceeds of the sale of Shares acquired upon settlement of the Stock Units either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on your behalf pursuant to this authorization) without further consent; or

 

(3)     withholding in Shares to be issued upon settlement of the Stock Units.

	 	 	 
	  	  	
Depending on the withholding method, the Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding amounts or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum applicable rates, in which case you will receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash and will have no entitlement to the common stock equivalent. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in Shares, for tax purposes, you are deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject to the vested Stock Unit, notwithstanding that a number of the Shares are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items.

 

Finally, you agree to pay to the Company or the Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate any amount of Tax-Related Items that it may be required to withhold or account for as a result of your participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to issue or deliver the Shares or the proceeds of the sale of Shares, if you fail to comply with your obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.

 

Notwithstanding the above, if you are classified as a Section 16 officer of the Company under the U.S. Securities Act of 1934, as amended, you shall be restricted to alternative (3) above for purposes of satisfying all Tax-Related Items, unless this withholding method is not permissible under the applicable laws of the country in which you reside, or the Company has authorized an alternative method for the relative taxable event..

Data Privacy
	  	
 You hereby explicitly and unambiguously consent to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of your personal data as described in this Agreement and any other Stock Unit grant materials by and among, as applicable, the Company, the Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate retaining your Services or any other Subsidiaries and Affiliates for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing your participation in the Plan. 

 

You understand that the Company and the Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate retaining your Services may hold certain personal information about you, including, but not limited to, your name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any shares of stock or directorships held in the Company, details of all Stock Units or any other entitlement to shares of stock awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in your favor, for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Plan (“Data”). 

 

You understand that Data will be transferred to E*TRADE Financial Corporate Services, Inc. (“E*TRADE”) or such other stock plan service provider as may be selected by the Company in the future, which is assisting the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. You understand that the recipients of the Data may be located in the United States or elsewhere, and that the recipient’s country (e.g., the United States) may have different data privacy laws and protections than your country. You understand that if you reside outside the United States, you may request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Data by contacting your local human resources representative. You authorize the Company, E*TRADE and any other possible recipients which may assist the Company (presently or in the future) with implementing, administering and managing the Plan to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the sole purposes of implementing, administering and managing your participation in the Plan. You understand that Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage your participation in the Plan. You understand that if you reside outside the United States, you may, at any time, view Data, request additional information about the storage and processing of Data, require any necessary amendments to Data or refuse or withdraw the consents herein, in any case without cost, by contacting in writing your local human resources representative. Further, you understand that you are providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis. If you do not consent, or if you later seek to revoke your consent, your Service relationship and career with the Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate will not be adversely affected; the only adverse consequence of refusing or withdrawing your consent is that the Company would not be able to grant you Stock Units or other equity awards or administer or maintain such awards. Therefore, you understand that refusing or withdrawing your consent may affect your ability to participate in the Plan. For more information on the consequences of your refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, you understand that you may contact your local human resources representative.

	 	 	 
	
Restrictions 
on Resale
	
  
	
You agree not to sell any Shares at a time when applicable securities laws, the Company policies or an agreement between the Company and its underwriters prohibit a sale. This restriction will apply as long as your active Service continues and for such period of time after the termination of your active Service as the Company may specify.

	  	  
	
Insider Trading

Restrictions and

Market Abuse

Laws
	
  
	
You acknowledge that, depending on your country, you may be subject to insider trading restrictions and/or market abuse laws, which may affect your ability to acquire or sell Shares or rights to Shares under the Plan during such times as you are considered to have “inside information” regarding the Company (as defined by the laws in your country). Any restrictions under these laws or regulations are separate from and in addition to any restrictions that may be imposed under any applicable Company insider trading policy. You acknowledge that it is your responsibility to comply with any applicable restrictions, and you are advised to speak to your personal advisor on this matter.

Settlement of Stock Units. This provision supplements the Settlement of Stock Units section of the Agreement:

 

The grant of this Award does not provide any right for you to receive a cash payment and the Stock Units are payable in Shares only. This provision is without prejudice to the application of the Responsibility for Taxes section of the Agreement. 

 

Responsibility for Taxes. This provision supplements the Responsibility for Taxes section of the Agreement:

 

If payment or withholding of the income tax owed on the vesting of the Stock Unit and issuance of Shares or other disposal of the Award is not made within ninety (90) days of the end of the U.K. tax year in which the tax event occurs or such other period specified in Section 222(1)(c) of the U.K. Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003 (the “Due Date”), the amount that should have been withheld from or paid by you shall constitute a loan owed by you to the Company or the Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate retaining your Services, effective on the Due Date. You agree that the loan will bear interest at the then-current Official Rate of Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs (“HMRC”), it will be immediately due and repayable, and the Company or the Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate retaining your Services may recover it at any time thereafter by any of the means referred to in the Responsibility for Taxes section in the Agreement.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if you are a director or executive officer of the Company (within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act), you will not be eligible for such a loan to cover the income taxes. In the event that you are a director or executive officer and the income taxes are not collected from or paid by you by the Due Date, the amount of any uncollected tax will constitute a benefit to you on which additional income tax and National Insurance Contributions (“NICs”) (including the Employer NICs, as defined below) will be payable. You will be responsible for reporting and paying any income tax due on this additional benefit directly to HMRC under the self-assessment regime, and for reimbursing the Company and/or the Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate retaining your Services (as appropriate) for the value of employee NICs due on this additional benefit which the Company and/or the Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate retaining your Services may recover from you by any of the means set forth in the Responsibility for Taxes section of the Agreement.

As a condition of participating in the Plan and vesting in the Stock Units, you agree to accept any liability for secondary Class 1 National Insurance Contributions (the “Employer NICs”) which may be payable by the Company or the Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate retaining your Services with respect to the Shares obtained under the Plan or otherwise payable with respect to a benefit derived in connection with the Plan. 

 

Without limitation to the foregoing, you agree to execute a joint election with the Company and/or the Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate retaining your Services (the “Joint Election”), the form of such Joint Election being formally approved by HMRC, and any other consent or election required to accomplish the transfer of the Employer NICs to you. You further agree to execute such other joint elections as may be required with any successor to the Company and/or the Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate retaining your Services. If you do not enter into a Joint Election prior to the first applicable vesting date, the right to obtain Shares under the Plan shall become null and void without any liability to the Company and/or the Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate retaining your Services. You further agree that the Company and/or the Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate retaining your Services may collect the Employer NICs from you in accordance with the Responsibility for Taxes section and the supplement thereto above.
