No Entitlements (1) Neither the Plan nor the Award Agreement confer on the Participant any right or entitlement to receive compensation, including, without limitation, any base salary or incentive compensation, in any specific amount for any future fiscal year (including, without limitation, any grants of future Awards under the Plan), nor impact in any way the Company Group’s determination of the amount, if any, of the Participant’s base salary or incentive compensation. This Award of RSUs made under this Award Agreement is completely independent of any other Awards or grants and is made at the sole discretion of the Company. The RSUs do not constitute salary, wages, regular compensation, recurrent compensation, pensionable compensation or contractual compensation for the year of grant or any prior or later years and shall not be included in, nor have any effect on or be deemed earned in any respect, in connection with the determination of employment-related rights or benefits under law or any employee benefit plan or similar arrangement provided by the Company Group (including, without limitation, severance, termination of employment and pension benefits), unless otherwise specifically provided for under the terms of such plan or arrangement or by the Company Group. The benefits provided pursuant to the RSUs are in no way secured, guaranteed or warranted by the Company Group.
(2) The RSUs are awarded to the Participant by virtue of the Participant’s employment with, and services performed for, the Company Group. The Plan or the Award Agreement does not constitute an employment agreement. Nothing in the Plan or the Award Agreement shall modify the terms of the Participant’s employment, including, without limitation, the Participant’s status as an “at will” employee of the Company Group, if applicable.
(3) Subject to any applicable employment agreement, the Company reserves the right to change the terms and conditions of the Participant’s employment, including the division, subsidiary or department in which the Participant is employed. None of the Plan or the Award Agreement, the grant of RSUs, nor any action taken or omitted to be taken under the Plan or the Award Agreement shall be deemed to create or confer on the Participant any right to be retained in the employ of the Company Group, or to interfere with or to limit in any way the right of the Company Group to terminate the Participant’s employment at any time. Moreover, the Separation from Service provisions set forth in Section (C) or (D), as applicable, only apply to the treatment of the RSUs in the specified circumstances and shall not otherwise affect the Participant’s employment relationship. By accepting this Award Agreement, the Participant waives any and all rights to compensation or damages in consequence of the termination of the Participant’s office or employment for any reason whatsoever to the extent such rights arise or may arise from the Participant’s ceasing to have rights under, or be entitled to receive payment in respect of, any unvested RSUs that are cancelled or forfeited as a result of such termination, or from the loss or diminution in value of such rights or entitlements, including by reason of the operation of the terms of the Plan, this Award Agreement or the provisions of any statute or law to taxation. This waiver applies whether or not such termination amounts to a wrongful discharge or unfair dismissal.
