CAREFUSION CORPORATION PERFORMANCE STOCK UNITS AGREEMENT

Exhibit 10.2

CAREFUSION CORPORATION

PERFORMANCE STOCK UNITS AGREEMENT

On ___________ (the “Grant Date”), CareFusion Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), has awarded to _________________ (“Awardee”) a targeted number of _________ (the “Target Number”) Performance Stock Units (the “Performance Stock Units” or “Award”) to be calculated and determined as discussed below. Each Performance Stock Unit will represent an unfunded and unsecured promise of the Company to deliver shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the “Shares”) to Awardee as set forth herein. Each Performance Stock Unit will be subject to forfeiture until the date such Performance Stock Unit vests pursuant to Paragraph 1 of this Agreement, or as otherwise provided herein. The Performance Stock Units have been granted pursuant to the CareFusion Corporation 2009 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), and shall be subject to all provisions of the Plan, which are incorporated herein by reference, and shall be subject to the provisions of this Agreement. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement that are not specifically defined will have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Plan.

1. Vesting.

(a) The Performance Stock Units will vest if and to the extent that (i) the specific performance measure set forth in Appendix A of this Agreement (the “Performance Measure”) equals or exceeds the designated performance target level or levels specified in Appendix A of this Agreement (the “Performance Target”) for the performance period August 15, 2014 through June 30, 2017 (the “Performance Period”) and (ii) the continuous service requirements set forth in Paragraph 3 are satisfied. Any determination that the Performance Target is achieved and that any Performance Stock Units vest with respect to the Performance Period shall be made by written certification of the Human Resources and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Committee”) not later than the date that is 2½ months after the end of the Performance Period. If the Performance Measure fails to equal or exceed the Performance Target for the Performance Period, then all outstanding Performance Stock Units shall be forfeited by Awardee.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon a Change of Control the Performance Stock Units will immediately vest with respect to a number of Shares equal to the greater of (i) the Target Number of Performance Stock Units or (ii) the total number of Shares issuable based on the achievement of the Performance Target calculated as set forth in Appendix A of this Agreement but determined by treating the date of the date of the Change of Control as the last day of the Performance Period, provided that Awardee remains in the continuous employ of the Company or its Affiliates until immediately prior to the date of the Change of Control. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Change of Control” shall mean a “Change of Control” as defined in the Plan that is also a change in the ownership or effective control of the Company, or in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Company for purposes of Section 409A(2)(A)(v) of the Code.

2. Transferability. The Performance Stock Units shall not be transferable.

3. Continuous Service Requirement and Termination of Employment.

(a) General. Except as set forth in Paragraphs 6(b), (c) and (d) below, in order to receive a payment pursuant to Paragraph 6 hereof with respect to Performance Stock Units that vest based on the achievement of the Performance Target in accordance with Paragraph 1 hereof, Awardee must remain in the continuous employ of the Company or its Affiliates through the third anniversary of the Grant Date, and if a Termination of Employment of Awardee occurs other than by reason of Death or Disability (as set forth in Paragraph 3(b) hereof) or Retirement (as set forth in Paragraph 3(c) hereof) prior to such date, then all outstanding Performance Stock Units shall be forfeited by Awardee.

(b) Termination of Employment by Reason of Death or Disability. If, at least six (6) months following the Grant Date, a Termination of Employment of Awardee occurs by reason of death or by the Company on account of Disability, then the Performance Stock Units shall not be forfeited as a result of such Termination of Employment. If such a Termination of Employment occurs prior to the end of the Performance Period, then the Performance Stock Units shall immediately vest on the date of such Termination of Employment, with payment in Shares to be made as to 100% of the Target Number multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of complete weeks that have elapsed from the beginning of the Performance Period until the date on which the Termination of Employment occurs and the denominator of which is 150. If such a Termination of Employment occurs after the end of the Performance Period, then the Performance Stock Units shall immediately vest on the date of such Termination of Employment, with payment in Shares to be made based on the achievement of the Performance Target in accordance with Paragraph 1 hereof.

(c) Termination of Employment by Reason of Retirement. If, at least six (6) months following the Grant Date, a Termination of Employment of Awardee occurs by reason of Retirement, then the Performance Stock Units shall not be forfeited as a result of such Termination of Employment, and Awardee shall vest in such Performance Stock Units as provided in Paragraph 1 hereof without regard to such Termination of Employment and subject to the provisions of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement and this Award under the Plan, “Retirement” shall mean Awardee’s (i) attaining age fifty-five (55) and (ii) having at least ten (10) years of continuous service with the Company or Cardinal Health, Inc. and their Affiliates, including service with an Affiliate of the Company or Cardinal Health, Inc. prior to the time that such Affiliate became an Affiliate of the Company or Cardinal Health, Inc. For purposes of the age and/or service requirement, the Administrator may, in its discretion, credit a Participant with additional age and/or years of service.

4. Triggering Conduct/Competitor Triggering Conduct. As used in this Agreement, “Triggering Conduct” shall include the following: disclosing or using in any capacity other than as necessary in the performance of duties assigned by the Company and its Affiliates (the “CareFusion Group”) any confidential information, trade secrets or other business sensitive information or material concerning the CareFusion Group; violation of Company policies, including but not limited to conduct which would constitute a breach of any certificate of compliance or similar attestation/ certification signed by Awardee; directly or indirectly employing, contacting concerning employment, or participating in any way in the recruitment for employment of (whether as an employee, officer, director, agent,

2

consultant or independent contractor), any person who was or is an employee, representative, officer or director of the CareFusion Group at any time within the 12 months prior to Awardee’s Termination of Employment; any action by Awardee and/or his or her representatives that either does or could reasonably be expected to undermine, diminish or otherwise damage the relationship between the CareFusion Group and any of its customers, potential customers, vendors and/or suppliers that were known to Awardee; and breaching any provision of any employment or severance agreement with a member of the CareFusion Group. As used in this Agreement, “Competitor Triggering Conduct” shall include, either during Awardee’s employment or within one year following Awardee’s Termination of Employment, accepting employment with, or serving as a consultant or advisor or in any other capacity to, an entity that is in competition with the business conducted by any member of the CareFusion Group prior to a Change of Control (a “Competitor”), including, but not limited to, employment or another business relationship with any Competitor if Awardee has been introduced to trade secrets, confidential information or business sensitive information during Awardee’s employment with the CareFusion Group and such information would aid the Competitor because the threat of disclosure of such information is so great that, for purposes of this Agreement, it must be assumed that such disclosure would occur.

5. Special Forfeiture/Repayment Rules. For so long as Awardee continues as an Employee with the CareFusion Group and for three years following Termination of Employment regardless of the reason, Awardee agrees not to engage in Triggering Conduct. If Awardee engages in Triggering Conduct during the time period set forth in the preceding sentence or in Competitor Triggering Conduct during the time period referenced in the definition of “Competitor Triggering Conduct” set forth in Paragraph 4 above, then:

(a)any Performance Stock Units that have not yet vested or that vested within the Look-Back Period (as defined below) with respect to such Triggering Conduct or Competitor Triggering Conduct and have not yet been settled by a payment of Shares pursuant to Paragraph 6 hereof shall immediately and automatically terminate, be forfeited, and cease to exist; and

(b) Awardee shall, within 30 days following written notice from the Company, pay to the Company an amount equal to (x) the aggregate gross gain realized or obtained by Awardee resulting from the settlement of all Performance Stock Units pursuant to Paragraph 6 hereof (measured as of the settlement date (i.e., the market value of the Performance Stock Units on such settlement date)) that have already been settled and that had vested at any time within three years prior to the Triggering Conduct (the “Look-Back Period”), minus (y) $1.00. If Awardee engages only in Competitor Triggering Conduct, then the Look-Back Period shall be shortened to exclude any period more than one year prior to Awardee’s Termination of Employment, but including any period between the time of Termination of Employment and engagement in Competitor Triggering Conduct. Awardee may be released from Awardee’s obligations under this Paragraph 5 if and only if the Administrator (or its duly appointed designee) authorizes, in writing and in its sole discretion, such release. Nothing in this Paragraph 5 constitutes a so-called “noncompete” covenant. This Paragraph 5 does, however, prohibit certain conduct while Awardee is associated with the CareFusion Group and thereafter and does provide for the forfeiture or repayment of the benefits granted by this Agreement under certain circumstances, including, but not limited to,

3

Awardee’s acceptance of employment with a Competitor. Awardee agrees to provide the Company with at least 10 days written notice prior to directly or indirectly accepting employment with, or serving as a consultant or advisor or in any other capacity to, a Competitor, and further agrees to inform any such new employer, before accepting employment, of the terms of this Paragraph 5 and Awardee’s continuing obligations contained herein. No provisions of this Agreement shall diminish, negate or otherwise impact any separate noncompete or other agreement to which Awardee may be a party, including, but not limited to, any certificate of compliance or similar attestation/certification signed by Awardee; provided, however, that to the extent that any provisions contained in any other agreement are inconsistent in any manner with the restrictions and covenants of Awardee contained in this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall take precedence and such other inconsistent provisions shall be null and void. Awardee acknowledges and agrees that the restrictions contained in this Agreement are being made for the benefit of the Company in consideration of Awardee’s receipt of the Performance Stock Units, in consideration of employment, in consideration of exposing Awardee to the Company’s business operations and confidential information, and for other good and valuable consideration, the adequacy of which consideration is hereby expressly confirmed. Awardee further acknowledges that the receipt of the Performance Stock Units and execution of this Agreement are voluntary actions on the part of Awardee and that the Company is unwilling to provide the Performance Stock Units to Awardee without including the restrictions and covenants of Awardee contained in this Agreement. Further, the parties agree and acknowledge that the provisions contained in Paragraphs 4 and 5 are ancillary to, or part of, an otherwise enforceable agreement at the time the agreement is made.

6. Payment of Vested Performance Stock Units. (a) Subject to the provisions of Paragraphs 4 and 5 of this Agreement and Paragraphs 6(b), (c) and (d), the Company shall pay to Awardee (without any payment on behalf of Awardee other than as described in Paragraph 10) the Shares represented by any Performance Stock Unit to the extent it vested as provided in Paragraph 1 of this Agreement on the fourth anniversary of the Grant Date (the “Payment Date”). Notwithstanding the vesting of any Performance Stock Units as provided in Paragraph 1 of this Agreement, until the Payment Date (and the payment of Shares represented by any Performance Stock Units), the Performance Stock Units and the Shares represented thereby may not be transferred, sold, pledged or hypothecated, nor shall such Shares be treated as outstanding and entitled to vote.

(b) Death. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any Performance Stock Units vest as a result of Awardee’s Termination of Employment due to death as provided in Paragraph 3(b) of the Agreement, the number of Shares corresponding with the vesting of such Performance Stock Units as provided in Paragraph 3(b) shall be paid within 60 days after the date of death.

(c) Disability. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any Performance Stock Units vest as a result of the occurrence of a Termination of Employment by the Company on account of Disability as provided in Paragraph 3(b) of this Agreement, Awardee shall be entitled to receive the number of Shares corresponding with the vesting of such Performance Stock Units as provided in Paragraph 3(b) on or within 60 days after the date of Termination of Employment; provided, however, that where Section 409A of the

4

Code applies to such distribution and Awardee is a “specified employee” (determined in accordance with Section 409A of the Code), Awardee shall be entitled to receive the corresponding Shares from the Company on the date that is the first day of the seventh month after Awardee’s “separation from service” with the Company (determined in accordance with Section 409A of the Code.

(d) Change of Control. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any Performance Stock Units vest as a result of the occurrence of a Change of Control in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 1(b) hereof, Awardee shall be paid the number of Shares corresponding with the vesting of such Performance Stock Units as provided in Paragraph 1(b) on the date of such vesting.

(e) Deferral. Elections to defer receipt of the Shares beyond the date for payment provided herein may be permitted in the discretion of the Administrator pursuant to procedures established by the Administrator in compliance with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.

7. Dividend Equivalents. Awardee shall not be entitled to receive any cash dividends on the Performance Stock Units. However, cash payments on each cash dividend payment date with respect to Shares subject to Performance Stock Units that have vested as provided in Paragraph 1 of this Agreement with a record date prior to the Payment Date shall be accrued until the Payment Date and paid thereon on the Payment Date.

8. Right of Set-Off. By accepting these Performance Stock Units, Awardee consents to a deduction from, and set-off against, any amounts owed to Awardee that are not treated as “non-qualified deferred compensation” under Section 409A of the Code by any member of the CareFusion Group from time to time (including, but not limited to, amounts owed to Awardee as wages, severance payments or other fringe benefits) to the extent of the amounts owed to the CareFusion Group by Awardee under this Agreement.

9. No Stockholder Rights. Awardee shall have no rights of a stockholder with respect to the Performance Stock Units, including, without limitation, any right to vote the Shares represented by the Performance Stock Units.

10. Withholding Tax.

(a) Generally. Awardee is liable and responsible for all taxes owed in connection with the Performance Stock Units (including taxes owed with respect to any cash payments described in Paragraph 7 hereof), regardless of any action the Company takes with respect to any tax withholding obligations that arise in connection with the Performance Stock Units. The Company does not make any representation or undertaking regarding the tax treatment or the treatment of any tax withholding in connection with the grant or vesting of the Performance Stock Units or the subsequent sale of Shares issuable upon settlement of the Performance Stock Units. The Company does not commit and is under no obligation to structure the Performance Stock Units to reduce or eliminate Awardee’s tax liability.

(b) Payment of Withholding Taxes. Prior to any event in connection with the Performance Stock Units (e.g., vesting or settlement) that the Company determines may result in any domestic or foreign tax withholding obligation, whether national, federal, state

5

or local, including any employment tax obligation (the “Tax Withholding Obligation”), Awardee is required to arrange for the satisfaction of the minimum amount of such Tax Withholding Obligation in a manner acceptable to the Company. Unless Awardee elects to satisfy the Tax Withholding Obligation by an alternative means that is then permitted by the Company, Awardee’s acceptance of this Agreement constitutes Awardee’s instruction and authorization to the Company to retain on Awardee’s behalf the number of Shares from those Shares issuable to Awardee under this Award, to reduce the number of unpaid Performance Stock Units or to sell or arrange for the sale of the number of Shares as the Company determines to be sufficient to satisfy the Tax Withholding Obligation as owed when any such obligation comes due. The value of any Shares retained or the number of Performance Stock Units reduced for such purposes shall be based on the Fair Market Value, as the term is defined in the Plan, of the Shares on the date of vesting of the Performance Stock Units. To the extent that the Company retains any Shares or reduces the number of Performance Stock Units to cover the Tax Withholding Obligation, it will do so at the minimum statutory rate, but in no event shall such amount exceed the minimum required by applicable law and regulations. The Company shall have the right to deduct from all cash payments paid pursuant to Paragraph 7 hereof the amount of any taxes which the Company is required to withhold with respect to such payments.

11. Governing Law/Venue for Dispute Resolution/Costs and Legal Fees. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to principles of conflicts of law, except to the extent superseded by the laws of the United States of America. The parties agree and acknowledge that the laws of the State of Delaware bear a substantial relationship to the parties and/or this Agreement and that the Performance Stock Units and benefits granted herein would not be granted without the governance of this Agreement by the laws of the State of Delaware. In addition, all legal actions or proceedings relating to this Agreement shall be brought exclusively in state or federal courts located in the State of Delaware and the parties executing this Agreement hereby consent to the personal jurisdiction of such courts. Awardee acknowledges that the covenants contained in Paragraphs 4 and 5 of this Agreement are reasonable in nature, are fundamental for the protection of the Company’s legitimate business and proprietary interests, and do not adversely affect Awardee’s ability to earn a living in any capacity that does not violate such covenants. The parties further agree that in the event of any violation by Awardee of any such covenants, the Company will suffer immediate and irreparable injury for which there is no adequate remedy at law. In the event of any violation or attempted violations of the restrictions and covenants of Awardee contained in this Agreement, the CareFusion Group shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive relief or other equitable relief, including the issuance ex parte of a temporary restraining order, without any showing of irreparable harm or damage, such irreparable harm being acknowledged and admitted by Awardee, and Awardee hereby waives any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy, without prejudice to any other rights and remedies afforded the CareFusion Group hereunder or by law. In the event that it becomes necessary for the CareFusion Group to institute legal proceedings under this Agreement, Awardee shall be responsible to the Company for all costs and reasonable legal fees incurred by the Company with regard to such proceedings. Any provision of this Agreement which is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable should be construed or limited in a manner that is valid and enforceable and

6

that comes closest to the business objectives intended by such provision, without invalidating or rendering unenforceable the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

12. Action by the Administrator. The parties agree that the interpretation of this Agreement shall rest exclusively and completely within the sole discretion of the Administrator. The parties agree to be bound by the decisions of the Administrator with regard to the interpretation of this Agreement and with regard to any and all matters set forth in this Agreement. The Administrator may delegate its functions under this Agreement to an officer of the CareFusion Group designated by the Administrator (hereinafter the “designee”). In fulfilling its responsibilities hereunder, the Administrator or its designee may rely upon documents, written statements of the parties or such other material as the Administrator or its designee deems appropriate. The parties agree that there is no right to be heard or to appear before the Administrator or its designee and that any decision of the Administrator or its designee relating to this Agreement, including, without limitation, whether particular conduct constitutes Triggering Conduct or Competitor Triggering Conduct, shall be final and binding unless such decision is arbitrary and capricious.

13. Prompt Acceptance of Agreement. The Performance Stock Unit grant evidenced by this Agreement shall, at the discretion of the Administrator, be forfeited if this Agreement is not manually executed and returned to the Company, or electronically executed by Awardee by indicating Awardee’s acceptance of this Agreement in accordance with the acceptance procedures set forth on the Company’s third-party equity plan administrator’s web site, within 90 days of the Grant Date.
