under the Plan. This Award represents your equity retainer for service as a member of the Board of
Directors of Hanesbrands Inc. (the “Board”) in [year].
2. Dividend Equivalents. Subject to the restrictions, limitations and conditions described in
the Plan, dividend equivalents payable on the RSUs into which they are to be converted will be

and will vest and will be paid to the Grantee when the RSUs vest.
3. Vesting. The RSUs will vest and become payable, together with a payment in cash equal to

anniversary of the Award Date (the “Vesting Date”) if you are continuing to serve as a member of
the Board on such one-year anniversary; provided that (i) if your service as a member of the Board
is terminated prior to such one-year anniversary due to your death or permanent and total
disability, all unvested RSUs will vest as of the date on which the Company is notified in writing
of your death or the date on which the Company determines that you are permanently and totally
disabled, and will become payable, together with a payment in cash equal to the value of any
fractional shares, in shares of common stock as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, and (ii)

other reason, that number of RSUs determined by (A) dividing the number of RSUs granted by twelve,

will become payable, together with a payment in cash equal to the value of any fractional shares,
in shares of common stock as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, and all RSUs other than the
Pro Rata RSUs shall be forfeited. The RSUs are not transferable by you by means of sale,
assignment, exchange, pledge, or otherwise until vested. You are personally responsible for the
payment of all taxes related to vesting of the RSUs.
4. Adjustments. If the number of outstanding shares of Company common stock is changed as a

of common stock.
