INTEGER HOLDINGS CORPORATION
2021 OMNIBUS INCENTIVE PLAN
2021 OMNIBUS INCENTIVE PLAN
The Participant has been granted an Award (the “Award”) of Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) pursuant to the Integer Holdings Corporation 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan (as it may be amended from time to time, the “Plan”), and this RSU Agreement (this “Agreement”), dated as indicated in Appendix A (the “Grant Date”). Except as otherwise indicated, any capitalized term used but not defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in the Plan.
1.Issuance of Shares. Each RSU shall represent the right to receive one Share upon the vesting of such RSU, as determined in accordance with and subject to the terms of this Agreement and the Plan. The number of RSUs is set forth in Appendix A.
2.Vesting Dates. Subject to Section 3, the Award shall vest on the dates set forth in Appendix A.
3.Termination of Service; Change in Control. In the event of a Termination of Service or Change in Control, the RSUs will be treated in accordance with Section 12 of the Plan. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, the balance of the RSUs that have not vested pursuant to Section 2 or this Section 3 will be automatically forfeited as of the date that the Participant’s services as a Director terminate for any reason.
4.Voting Rights. The Participant shall have no voting rights or any other rights as a shareholder of the Company with respect to the RSUs unless and until the Participant becomes the record owner of the Shares underlying the RSUs.
5.Dividend Equivalents. If a dividend is declared on Shares during the period commencing on the Grant Date and ending on the date on which the Shares underlying the RSUs are distributed to the Participant pursuant to this Agreement, the Participant shall be eligible to receive an amount equal to the dividend that the Participant would have received had the Shares underlying the RSUs been held by the Participant as of the record date for such dividend (a “Dividend Equivalent”). Such Dividend Equivalent will be subject to the same vesting conditions as the original RSU granted under this Agreement. Each Dividend Equivalent will be settled in cash as soon as reasonably practicable (and in no event later than 60 days) after the applicable Vesting Date of the corresponding RSUs. For clarity, no Dividend Equivalent will be paid with respect to any RSUs that are forfeited.
6.Distribution of Shares. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, upon the vesting of any of the RSUs, the Company shall deliver to the Participant, as soon as reasonably practicable (and in no event later than 60 days) after the applicable Vesting Date, one Share for each such RSU. Upon the delivery of Shares, such Shares shall be fully assignable, alienable, saleable and transferrable by the Participant; provided that any such assignment, alienation, sale, transfer or other alienation with respect to such Shares shall be in accordance with applicable securities laws and any applicable Company policy.

7.Responsibility for Taxes. The Participant acknowledges that, regardless of any action taken by the Company, the ultimate liability for all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to the Participant’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to the Participant (“Tax-Related Items”) is and remains the Participant’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company. The Participant further acknowledges that the Company (i) makes no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Award, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting or settlement of the Award, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired upon settlement of the Award and the receipt of any dividends and/or Dividend Equivalents; and (ii) does not commit to and is under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Award to reduce or eliminate the Participant’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result.
8.Cancellation/Clawback. The Participant hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Participant and the Award are subject to the terms and conditions of Section 18 (Cancellation or “Clawback” of Awards) of the Plan.
9.Provisions of Plan Control. This Agreement is subject to all the terms, conditions and provisions of the Plan, including the amendment provisions thereof, and to such rules, regulations and interpretations relating to the Plan as may be adopted by the Committee and as may be in effect from time to time. The Plan is incorporated herein by reference. If and to the extent that this Agreement conflicts or is inconsistent with the Plan, the Plan shall control, and this Agreement shall be deemed to be modified accordingly.

12.No Right to Future Awards. Any Award granted under the Plan shall be a one-time Award that does not constitute a promise of future grants. The Company, in its sole discretion, maintains the right to make available future grants under the Plan.
13.Transfer of RSUs. Except as may be permitted by the Committee, neither the Award nor any right under the Award shall be assignable, alienable, saleable or transferable by the Participant other than (a) by will or pursuant to the laws of descent and distribution or (b) by order of any court of competent jurisdiction, including with respect to any domestic relations order or divorce decree.
