not substantially performed your duties and you have been provided with a reasonable opportunity to
cure any alleged gross negligence or willful misconduct; (ii) commission of any act of fraud with
respect to Intuit; or (iii) conviction of a felony or a crime involving moral turpitude causing
material harm to the business and affairs of Intuit. No act or failure to act by you shall be

substantially all of the assets of Intuit or a liquidation or dissolution of Intuit, or (iv)

nomination for election by Intuit stockholders, was approved by the vote of at least a majority of
the directors then in office shall be deemed a member of the Incumbent Board.

     10. Separation Benefits. Upon termination of your employment with Intuit for any
reason, you will receive payment for all unpaid salary and vacation accrued to the date of your
termination of employment; and your benefits will be continued under Intuit’s then existing benefit
plans and policies for so long as provided under the terms of such plans and policies and as
required by applicable law. Under certain circumstances and conditioned upon your execution of a
release and waiver of claims against the Company, its officers and directors, you will also be
entitled to receive severance benefits as set forth below, but you will not be entitled to any
other compensation, award or damages with respect to your employment or termination.

          (a) In the event of your Voluntary Termination or Termination for Cause, you will not be
entitled to any severance benefits.

          (b) In the event of your Involuntary Termination or Termination without Cause, conditioned
upon your execution of a release and waiver of claims against the Company, its officers and
directors in a form acceptable to the Company and your satisfying all conditions to make the
release effective and irrevocable within 45 days after the date of such termination of employment,
you will be entitled to a single lump sum severance payment equal to eighteen (18) months of your
current annual base salary and one and one-half times your Target Bonus for the then current fiscal

Bonus for the then current fiscal year (less applicable deductions and withholdings) payable within
thirty (30) days after the effective date of your termination.

          (d) If your severance benefits provided for in this Section 10 constitute “parachute payments”
within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and, but for this subsection, would be subject to
the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code, then your severance benefits
under this Section 10 will be payable, at your election, either in full or in such lesser amount as
would result, after taking into account the applicable federal, state and local income taxes and
the excise tax imposed by Section 4999, in your receipt on an after-tax basis of the greatest
amount of severance and other benefits. If payment is to be in a lesser amount then reduction
shall occur in the following order: (i) reduction of payments of cash; and (ii) cancellation of
accelerated vesting any equity awards for which vesting acceleration is provided; and in each case
reduction shall be pro rata between those payments subject to Section 409A and payments not subject
to Section 409A.

Invention Assignment and Confidentiality Agreement will remain in full force and effect

     14. Arbitration. The parties agree that any dispute regarding the interpretation or
enforcement of this agreement shall be decided by confidential, final and binding arbitration
conducted by Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services (“JAMS”) under the then existing JAMS
rules rather than by litigation in court, trial by jury, administrative proceeding or in any other
forum.

     15. Miscellaneous.

          (a) Authority to Enter into Agreement. Intuit represents that its President and Chief
Executive Officer has due authority to execute and deliver this agreement on behalf of Intuit.

          (b) Absence of Conflicts. You continue to represent that your performance of your
duties under this agreement will not breach any other agreement as to which you are a party.

          (c) Attorneys Fees. If a legal action or other proceeding is brought for enforcement

connection with any of the provisions of this agreement, the successful or prevailing party shall
be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys’ fees and
costs incurred, both before and after judgment, in addition to any other relief to which they may
be entitled.

 

 

          (d) Successors. This agreement is binding on and may be enforced by Intuit and its
successors and assigns and is binding on and may be enforced by you and your heirs and legal
representatives. Any successor to Intuit or substantially all of its business (whether by purchase,
merger, consolidation or otherwise) will in advance assume in writing and be bound by all of
Intuit’s obligations under this agreement.

          (e) Notices. Notices under this agreement must be in writing and will be deemed to

at the home address which you have most recently communicated to Intuit in writing, with a copy to
legal counsel you designate. Notices to Intuit will be addressed to its General Counsel at Intuit’s
corporate headquarters.

          (f) Waiver. No provision of this agreement will be modified or waived except in
writing signed by you and an officer of Intuit duly authorized by its Board of Directors. No waiver
by either party of any breach of this agreement by the other party will be considered a waiver of
any other breach of this agreement.

          (g) Entire Agreement. This agreement, including the attached exhibits, represents the
entire agreement between us concerning the subject matter of your employment by Intuit.

          (h) Governing Law. This agreement will be governed by the laws of the State of
California without reference to conflict of laws provisions.

	 	6.4.2	 	any other statements and documents that the Chairman of the Board of
Directors, the Committee or any other person designated to that effect by the
Committee, deems necessary or desirable in order to comply with all applicable legal
and regulatory provisions.

	6.5	 	Payment of the Exercise Price

	 	6.5.1	 	Full payment of the Exercise Price (as well as related costs, taxes and
duties, if any) must take place at the latest five (5) Banking Days after the date of
exercise, in the manner indicated on the Option Exercise Form. Transfer of ownership
of the Shares will occur upon receipt by Anheuser-Busch InBev of the Exercise Price.
However, if applicable, transfer of ownership may be postponed until payment by the
Participant of all amounts and taxes due in the framework of any tax equalisation
arrangement relating to the Plan.
	 
	 	6.5.2	 	Anheuser-Busch InBev may, at its discretion, set up a mechanism of “cashless”
Exercise whereby a Participant may elect to simultaneously Exercise Options and sell
the Shares

6

 

	 	 	 	underlying the exercised Options. In that case, the Exercise Price will be paid to
Anheuser-Busch InBev from the proceeds of the sale of the Shares, in accordance with
Clause 6.5.1.

	 	 	 	By opting for a cashless Exercise, the Participant:

	 	(i)	 	instructs the financial intermediary appointed by Anheuser-Busch
InBev to sell on the market the Shares underlying the exercised Options; and
	 
	 	(ii)	 	instructs Anheuser-Busch InBev to: (i) deliver, on the
Participant’s behalf, the Shares underlying the exercised Options to such
financial intermediary for their sale on the market; and (ii) collect from that
financial intermediary the proceeds of the sale of those Shares.

	 	 	 	Following the delivery of the Shares by Anheuser-Busch InBev to the financial
intermediary, the obligation of Anheuser-Busch InBev to deliver Shares (or the sale
proceeds thereof) to the Participant will be set off against the obligation of the
Participant to pay the Exercise Price to Anheuser-Busch InBev. Any amount in excess
of the Exercise Price collected by Anheuser-Busch InBev, after payment of all
applicable costs, fees and taxes due by the Participant and, if applicable, any
amount due by the Participant in the framework of any tax equalisation arrangement
relating to the Plan, as a result of the cashless exercise, will be transferred to
the Participant.
	 
	 	6.5.3	 	If the Participant fails to pay the Exercise Price within the timeframe
provided in Clause 6.5.1, he/she thereby authorises Anheuser-Busch InBev to sell the
Shares underlying the Options so exercised. The sale will take place on the sixth
(6th) Banking Day after the date of exercise. The proceeds of the sale of
the Shares will be applied in the following order: first, payment of all costs, fees
and taxes due as a result of the Exercise and the sale of the Shares; secondly, payment
of the Exercise Price to Anheuser-Busch InBev; thirdly, payment of the remaining sale
proceeds to the Participant.
	 
	 	 	 	However, the Exercise will be automatically cancelled should Anheuser-Busch InBev
consider that the sale proceeds would be insufficient to cover: (i) the Exercise
Price to be paid to Anheuser-Busch InBev; and (ii) the costs, fees and taxes that
would be due by the Participant as a result of the Exercise and the sale of the
Shares.

	7	 	Expiry of the Options before the end of the Exercise Period A or the Exercise Period B and
situation upon Termination of Service
	 
	7.1	 	Default under the Senior Facilities Agreement
	 
	 	 	In case of a default by Anheuser-Busch InBev or any of its subsidiaries under the Senior
Facilities Agreement, which has not been cured or waived in accordance with the provisions
of the Senior Facilities Agreement, all Options not yet exercised will automatically expire
and become null and void on the date such default has occurred.
	 
	 	 	Anheuser-Busch InBev will, as soon as practically possible, inform the Participants of the
occurrence of any default under the Senior Facilities Agreement, which has not been cured of
waived.

Participant in accordance with these terms and conditions, provided that, if so
requested by Anheuser-Busch InBev, the Participant enters into a non-competition
agreement. The modalities of the non-competition agreement will be agreed upon
after the employment contract has ended.
	 
	 	 	 	The number of Dismissal Pro-Rata Options B will be calculated on the basis of
the following formula:

requested by Anheuser-Busch InBev, the Participant enters into a Non-Competition
Agreement. The modalities of the Non-Competition Agreement will be agreed upon
after the effective date of Outsourcing.
	 
	 	 	 	The number of Outsourcing Pro-Rata Options B will be calculated on the basis

of the Shares, mergers, (partial) demergers, as well as the right to amend the clauses in

	 	 	In the event that such corporate changes would have an unfavourable effect on the Options,
the Exercise Price and/or the number of Options and/or the number of Shares to which the
Options give rights will be adjusted for the purpose of safeguarding the interests of the
holders of Options, as determined at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors, subject
to any required action by the Shareholders’ Meeting of Anheuser-Busch InBev. The terms of

obligations of Anheuser-Busch InBev under the Plan will automatically be transferred to the
absorbing company and the Options will no longer give the Participants the right to purchase
Shares but instead the right to purchase shares of the absorbing company. The number of

interpretation and application of the Plan and, if necessary, to interpret, amend and cancel
these rules, in compliance with these terms and conditions.

and communications received by Anheuser-Busch InBev, Anheuser-Busch InBev affiliates and any
third party to which powers have been sub-delegated by Anheuser-Busch InBev for the

have been sub-delegated by Anheuser-Busch InBev for the administration of the Plan, unless
evidence to the contrary is provided by the Participant.

spouses shall appoint them as their sole representatives for all matters arising in relation
to the Options.
	 
	14	 	Death
	 
	 	 	In the event of a Participant’s death, any Successor acquiring Options shall inform

month from the date of death.
	 
	15	 	Modification of the Terms and Conditions
	 
	 	 	The Board of Directors may unilaterally modify at any time the practical and/or accessory
modalities of the terms and conditions. It may also unilaterally modify the terms and
conditions when such modifications are required to comply with any change in legislation.
	 
	16	 	Nature of the Plan
	 
	 	 	Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary included in the terms and conditions, the
Offer Letter, the Form of Acceptance of Options or any other document relating to the Plan:

13

 

	16.1	 	the acquisition of Shares by the Participant is unrelated to his occupational pension rights
or pension claims, so that this acquisition cannot affect these occupational pension rights
and claims;
	 
	16.2	 	the Plan, the Offer Letter and the Form of Acceptance of Options or any other document
relating to the Plan do not confer upon the Participant any right to continued employment for
any period of specific duration or interfere with or otherwise restrict in any way the rights
of Anheuser-Busch InBev or its subsidiaries to terminate the Participant’s employment
according to the applicable regulations in respect of termination thereof; and
	 
	16.3	 	the grant of Options cannot be considered as a right acquired for the future.
	 
	17	 	Privacy
	 
	 	 	The Data Controller is responsible for the collection and processing of Personal Data as is
necessary for the setting-up and administration of the Plan and the Options register of
Anheuser-Busch InBev in electronic form.
	 
	 	 	The Personal Data collected by way of the Form of Acceptance of Options and the Option
Exercise Form will be used exclusively for the purposes of the administration of the Plan
and the maintenance of the Options register of Anheuser-Busch InBev in electronic form.
	 
	 	 	The Data Controller can transfer the Personal Data to the Data Processor and the employer of
the Participant for the above purposes. Such recipients may be located in jurisdictions
outside the European Economic Area that may not provide an adequate level of personal data
protection.

on privacy protection in relation to the processing of personal data, as amended from time
to time, and its implementing decrees.
	 
	 	 	Through their signature of the Form of Acceptance of Options, the Participants give their
consent to the collection and processing of their Personal Data.
	 
	 	 	The Participants have the right to access and correct their Personal Data by sending a
written and signed request to their local People officer.
	 
	18	 	Severability
	 
	 	 	If any provision in this document is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, in whole
or in part, under any applicable law, that provision will be deemed not to form part of this
document, and the legality, validity or enforceability of the remainder of this document
will not be affected.
	 
	19	 	Applicable Law
	 
	 	 	The Options, the Shares and these terms and conditions are governed by Belgian law. Any
