RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT
(Non-Plan Inducement Award)
1. Issuance of Units. Viavi Solutions Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby issues to the Grantee (the “Grantee”) named in the Notice of Restricted Stock Unit Award (the “Notice”), the Total Number of Restricted Stock Units Awarded set forth in the Notice (the “Units”), subject to the terms and provisions of the Notice, this Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement (the “Agreement”) and the Employment Agreement, which are incorporated herein by reference. This Award has not been granted pursuant to the Viavi Solutions Inc. 2003 Equity Incentive Plan or any other share-based compensation plan of the Company in reliance on NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 5635(c)(4). Unless otherwise defined herein, the terms defined in the Notice shall have the same defined meanings in this Agreement.
2. Administration. All questions of interpretation concerning the Notice and this Agreement shall be determined by the Administrator. All determinations by the Administrator shall be final and binding upon all persons having an interest in the Award. Any officer of the Company shall have the authority to act on behalf of the Company with respect to any matter, right, obligation, or election which is the responsibility of or which is allocated to the Company herein, provided the officer has actual authority with respect to such matter, right, obligation, or election.
3. Transfer Restrictions. The Units may not be transferred in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Grantee may designate a beneficiary of the Units in the event of the Grantee’s death on the beneficiary designation form attached hereto as Exhibit A. The terms of this Agreement shall be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs, successors and transferees of the Grantee.
4. Vesting of Units. The Units shall commence vesting and shall vest in accordance with the Vesting Schedule set out in the Notice and with the applicable provisions of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement and the Notice, the term “vest” shall mean, with respect to any Units, that such Units are no longer subject to forfeiture to the Company. If the Grantee would become vested in a fraction of a Unit, such Unit shall not vest until the Grantee becomes vested in the entire Unit.
5. Termination of Continuous Active Service. Except in the event of the Grantee’s change in status from an Employee to a Consultant, in which case vesting of the Units shall continue only to the extent determined by the Administrator, vesting of the Units shall cease upon the date of termination of the Grantee’s Continuous Active Service for any reason, including death or Disability (after taking into account any additional vesting of Units by reason of the Accelerated Vesting described by the Notice). In the event the Grantee’s Continuous Active Service is terminated for any reason, including death or Disability, any unvested Units held by the Grantee immediately following such termination of Continuous Active Service shall
be forfeited without compensation and deemed reconveyed to the Company and the Company shall thereafter be the legal and beneficial owner of the unvested Units and shall have all rights and interest in or related thereto without further action by the Grantee.
6. Conversion of Units and Issuance of Shares.
(a) Issuance of Shares. Upon each vesting date, one share of Common Stock shall be issuable for each Unit that vests on such date (the “Shares”), subject to the terms and provisions of this Agreement. Thereafter, subject to Section 6(b), the Company will transfer such Shares to the Grantee upon satisfaction of any required tax or other withholding obligations. Any fractional Unit remaining after the Award is fully vested shall be discarded and shall not be converted into a fractional Share.
(b) Restrictions on Issuance of Shares. The issuance of the Shares shall be subject to compliance with all Applicable Laws, and no Shares may be issued hereunder if their issuance would violate any Applicable Laws. As a condition to issuance of the Shares, the Company may require the person acquiring the Shares to represent and warrant at the time of any such issuance that the Shares are being acquired only for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such Shares if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation is required by any Applicable Laws.
7. Right to Shares. The Grantee shall not have any right in, to or with respect to any of the Shares (including any voting rights or rights with respect to dividends paid on the Common Stock) issuable under the Award until the Award is settled by the issuance of such Shares to the Grantee.
8. Taxes.
(a) Generally. The Grantee is ultimately liable and responsible for all taxes owed by the Grantee in connection with the Award, regardless of any action the Company or any Affiliate takes with respect to any tax withholding obligations that arise in connection with the Award. Neither the Company nor any Affiliate makes any representation or undertaking regarding the treatment of any tax withholding in connection with the grant or vesting of the Award or the subsequent sale of Shares issuable pursuant to the Award. The Company and its Affiliates do not commit and are under no obligation to structure the Award to reduce or eliminate the Grantee’s tax liability. As a condition and term of this Award, no election under Section 83(b) of the Code may be made by the Grantee or any other person with respect to all or any portion of the Award.
(b) Payment of Withholding Taxes. Prior to any event in connection with the Award (e.g., vesting or issuance of Shares) that the Company determines may result in any tax withholding obligation, whether U.S., federal, state or local, or non-U.S., including any employment tax obligation (the “Tax Withholding Obligation”), the Grantee must arrange for the satisfaction of the minimum amount of such Tax Withholding Obligation in a manner acceptable to the Company.
(i) By Sale of Shares. Unless the Grantee determines (or is required) to satisfy the Tax Withholding Obligation by some other means in accordance with clause (ii)
2
below, the Grantee’s acceptance of this Award constitutes the Grantee’s instruction and authorization to the Company and any brokerage firm determined acceptable to the Company for such purpose to sell on the Grantee’s behalf a whole number of Shares from those Shares issuable to the Grantee as the Company determines to be appropriate to generate cash proceeds sufficient to satisfy the minimum applicable Tax Withholding Obligation. Such Shares will be sold on the day such Tax Withholding Obligation arises or as soon thereafter as practicable. The Grantee will be responsible for all brokers’ fees and other costs of sale, and the Grantee agrees to indemnify and hold the Company harmless from any losses, costs, damages, or expenses relating to any such sale. To the extent the proceeds of such sale exceed the Grantee’s minimum Tax Withholding Obligation, the Company agrees to pay such excess in cash to the Grantee. The Grantee acknowledges that the Company or its designee is under no obligation to arrange for such sale at any particular price, and that the proceeds of any such sale may not be sufficient to satisfy the Grantee’s minimum Tax Withholding Obligation. Accordingly, the Grantee agrees to pay to the Company or any Affiliate as soon as practicable, including through additional payroll withholding, any amount of the Tax Withholding Obligation that is not satisfied by the sale of Shares described above.
(ii) By Check, Wire Transfer or Other Means. At any time not less than five (5) business days before any Tax Withholding Obligation arises, the Grantee may elect to satisfy the Grantee’s Tax Withholding Obligation by delivering to the Company an amount that the Company determines is sufficient to satisfy the Tax Withholding Obligation by (x) wire transfer to such account as the Company may direct, (y) delivery of a certified check payable to the Company, or (z) such other means as specified from time to time by the Administrator.
(c) Right to Retain Shares. The Company may refuse to issue any Shares to the Grantee until the Grantee satisfies the Tax Withholding Obligation. To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Company has the right to retain without notice from Shares issuable under the Award or from salary or other amounts payable to the Grantee, Shares or cash having a value sufficient to satisfy the Tax Withholding Obligation.
9. Restrictions on Transfer of Shares. The Units and the Shares acquired upon their conversion shall be subject to (a) the Company’s Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx Policy and all provisions contained therein, including Anti-Hedging and (b) the Company’s Share Ownership and Retention Policy as set forth in the Company’s 2015 Proxy Statement, pursuant to which the Grantee will be required to retain at least fifty percent (50%) of the net after-tax Shares received upon conversion of Units until the Grantee holds vested shares of the Company’s common stock having a fair market value equal to at least 300% of the Grantee’s Base Salary (as defined by the Employment Agreement), and such ownership level must be achieved within five (5) years of the Effective Date of the Employment Agreement. With the consent of the Board of Directors of the Company, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, the Grantee will be permitted to transfer Shares for purposes of tax or estate planning.
10. Recoupment. The Units and any Shares acquired pursuant to the Award shall be subject to the Recoupment provisions described by the Employment Agreement.
11. Adjustments upon Changes in Capitalization. Subject to any required action by the stockholders of the Company, the number of Shares covered by the Award, as well as any
3
other terms that the Administrator determines require adjustment, shall be proportionately adjusted for (a) any increase or decrease in the number of issued Shares resulting from a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination or reclassification of the Shares, or similar transaction affecting the Shares, (b) any other increase or decrease in the number of issued Shares effected without receipt of consideration by the Company, or (c) as the Administrator may determine in its discretion, any other transaction with respect to Common Stock including a corporate merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, separation (including a spin-off or other distribution of stock or property), reorganization, liquidation (whether partial or complete) or any similar transaction; provided, however that conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be deemed to have been “effected without receipt of consideration.” Such adjustment shall be made by the Administrator and the Administrator’s determination shall be final, binding and conclusive. Except as the Administrator determines, no issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason hereof shall be made with respect to, the number of Shares subject to the Award.
12. Corporate Transactions. Effective upon the consummation of a Corporate Transaction, the Award shall terminate except to the extent it is Assumed in connection with the Corporate Transaction. Each portion of the Award that is neither Assumed nor Replaced shall automatically become fully vested and convertible into Shares and be released from any repurchase or forfeiture rights (other than repurchase rights exercisable at fair market value) for all of the Shares at the time represented by such portion of the Award, immediately prior to the specified effective date of such Corporate Transaction.
13. Entire Agreement; Governing Law. The Notice, this Agreement and the Employment Agreement constitute the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede in their entirety all prior undertakings and agreements of the Company and the Grantee with respect to the subject matter hereof, and may not be modified adversely to the Grantee’s interest except by means of a writing signed by the Company and the Grantee. These agreements are to be construed in accordance with and governed by the internal laws of the State of California without giving effect to any choice of law rule that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the internal laws of the State of California to the rights and duties of the parties. Should any provision of the Notice or this Agreement be determined by a court of law to be illegal or unenforceable, the other provisions shall nevertheless remain effective and shall remain enforceable. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Administrator may amend this Agreement, either retroactively or prospectively, without the consent of the Grantee, if the Administrator determines in its discretion that such amendment is required or advisable for this Agreement and the Award to satisfy or comply with or meet the requirements of Code Section 409A. To the extent the Award is otherwise exempt from Code Section 409A, the Administrator shall not take any action that would cause the Award to become subject to Code Section 409A, and to the extent the Award is subject to Code Section 409A, the Administrator shall not take any action that would cause the Award to fail to satisfy the requirements of Code Section 409A.
14. Headings. The captions used in this Agreement are inserted for convenience and shall not be deemed a part of this Agreement for construction or interpretation.
4
15. Dispute Resolution. The provisions of this Section 15 shall be the exclusive means of resolving disputes arising out of or relating to the Notice and this Agreement. The Company, the Grantee, and the Grantee’s assignees (the “parties”) shall attempt in good faith to resolve any disputes arising out of or relating to the Notice and this Agreement by negotiation between individuals who have authority to settle the controversy. Negotiations shall be commenced by either party by notice of a written statement of the party’s position and the name and title of the individual who will represent the party. Within thirty (30) days of the written notification, the parties shall meet at a mutually acceptable time and place, and thereafter as often as they reasonably deem necessary, to resolve the dispute. If the dispute has not been resolved by negotiation, the parties agree that any suit, action, or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Notice or this Agreement shall be brought in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California (or should such court lack jurisdiction to hear such action, suit or proceeding, in a California state court in the County of Santa Xxxxx) and that the parties shall submit to the jurisdiction of such court. The parties irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection the party may have to the laying of venue for any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such court. THE PARTIES ALSO EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT THEY HAVE OR MAY HAVE TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING. If any one or more provisions of this Section 15 shall for any reason be held invalid or unenforceable, it is the specific intent of the parties that such provisions shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it or its application valid and enforceable.
16. Notices. Any notice required or permitted hereunder shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon personal delivery, upon deposit for delivery by an internationally recognized express mail courier service or upon deposit in the United States mail by certified mail (if the parties are within the United States), with postage and fees prepaid, addressed to the other party at its address as shown in these instruments, or to such other address as such party may designate in writing from time to time to the other party.
17. No Effect on Terms of Service. The Units subject to the Award shall vest, if at all, only during the period of the Grantee’s Continuous Active Service (not through the act of being hired, being granted the Award or acquiring Shares hereunder) and the Award has been granted as an inducement for the Grantee to remain in such Continuous Active Service and as an incentive for increased efforts on behalf of the Company and its Affiliates by the Grantee during the period of his or her Continuous Active Service. Nothing in the Notice or the Agreement shall confer upon the Grantee any right with respect to future restricted stock unit grants or continuation of Grantee’s Continuous Active Service, nor shall it interfere in any way with the Grantee’s right or the right of the Grantee’s employer to terminate Xxxxxxx’s Continuous Active Service, with or without cause, and with or without notice. Unless the Grantee has a written employment agreement with the Company to the contrary, Xxxxxxx’s status is at will. This Award shall not, under any circumstances, be considered or taken into account for purposes of calculation of severance payments in those jurisdictions requiring such payments upon termination of employment. The Grantee shall not have and waives any and all rights to compensation or damages as a result of the termination of the Grantee’s employment with the Company or the Grantee’s employer for any reason whatsoever, insofar as those rights result or may result from (i) the loss or diminution in value of such rights or entitlements or claimed rights or entitlements under the Award, or (ii) the Grantee’s ceasing to be entitled to any purchase rights or shares or any other rights under the Award.

The Grantee consents to the collection, use and transfer of Data and authorizes these recipients to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer Data, in electronic or other form, as may be required for the implementation, administration and management of the Award, including any requisite transfer to a broker or any other third party with whom the Grantee may elect to deposit any Shares acquired as a result of this Award or any portion thereof and/or the subsequent holding of Shares on the Grantee’s behalf.
