1.Performance Components:

(a)The extent to which each Performance Component is satisfied and the number of Performance Shares which become vested shall be calculated with respect to each Performance Component in accordance with the table set forth above; provided that if the number of Performance Shares is not evenly divisible by four (4), then no fractional Shares will vest and the Shares attributable to each Performance Component will be as equal as possible with the residual Shares allocated to the Adjusted EBITDA Performance Component. All determinations with respect to the Performance Components shall be made by the Committee in its sole discretion and the Performance Components shall not be achieved and the Performance Shares shall not be delivered until the Committee certifies the extent to which such Performance Components have been met. The total number of Performance Shares which become vested based on the achievement of the Performance Components shall be equal to (x) the total number of Performance Shares specified above for each applicable Performance Component multiplied by (y) the Achievement Percentage determined pursuant to the table set forth above for the applicable Performance Component and the applicable weighting multiplier, and rounded down to the nearest whole Share.

(b)Any Performance Component measures may at any time be adjusted to exclude the impact of the following events: (i) asset write-downs; (ii) litigation, claims, judgments or settlements; (iii) the effect of changes in tax laws, accounting principles, or other laws or regulatory rules affecting reported results; (iv) any reorganization and restructuring programs; (v) acquisitions or divestitures; (vi) any other specific, unusual or nonrecurring events, or objectively determinable category thereof; (vii) foreign exchange gains and losses or fluctuation in currency exchange rates; (viii) discontinued operations and nonrecurring charges; (ix) a change in the Company’s fiscal year; and (x) any other event described in Section 13 of the Plan.

2.Definitions. For the purposes of this Award Notice:

(a)“Achievement Percentage” shall be determined pursuant to the table set forth above with respect to the threshold, target, and maximum levels for each Performance Component, or a percentage determined using linear interpolation if actual performance falls between threshold and target, or between target and maximum levels (and rounded to the nearest whole percentage point and, if equally between two percentage points, rounded up). Performance at below threshold level will result in an Achievement Percentage of 0% for that performance component, and performance at or above maximum level will result in an Achievement Percentage of 200% for that performance component.

(b)“Adjusted EBITDA” means the Company’s earnings before interest expense, taxes and depreciation and amortization and further adjusted to exclude gains, losses, revenues and expenses in connection with: (i) asset dispositions for both consolidated and unconsolidated investments; (ii) foreign currency transactions; (iii) debt restructurings and retirements; (iv) furniture, fixtures and equipment replacement reserves required under certain lease agreements; (v) share-based compensation; (vi) reorganization, severance, relocation and other expenses; (vii) non-cash impairment; (viii) amortization of contract acquisition costs; (ix)

the net effect of reimbursable costs included in other revenues and other expenses from managed and franchised properties; and (x) other items.

(c)“FCF/Share” is calculated as (i) net cash provided by (used in) operating activities reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP, less (ii) capital expenditures as disclosed by the Company in reports filed with or furnished to the SEC, less (iii) the net impact on annual adjusted free cash flow resulting from any loyalty program advanced points sale, plus (iv) costs and expenses, including tax payments, relating to asset purchases and disposals, less (v) the impact of other non-recurring cash items; with the sum of (i)-(v) divided by (vi) the Company’s reported diluted weighted average shares of Common Stock (as defined in the Plan) outstanding for the last calendar year being measured.

(d)“NUG” means the Company’s managed and franchised (“M&F”) hotel net unit growth, which is calculated as (i) the M&F hotel room count at the end of a period, less (ii) the M&F hotel room count at the beginning of the period, less (iii) the impact of any business or portfolio acquisition or disposition upon close of the transaction (i.e., open hotels on day 1 for an acquisition).

(e)“NUG CAGR” means compound annual growth rate at which the M&F hotel portfolio grew by at the end of the Performance Period (2026) relative to the portfolio at the end of 2023, excluding the impact of any business or portfolio acquisition or disposition upon close of the transaction, assuming a steady growth rate, as calculated at the end of the Performance Period using the following formula:

(i)((Year End 2026 M&F Hotel Room Count/Year End 2023 M&F Hotel Room Count)(Time Period)) – 1.

(ii)where “Time Period” means a fraction, with a numerator of 4 and a denominator equal to the number of full fiscal quarters completed during the Performance Period (i.e., 4/12 or 1/3).

(f)“Performance Component” means the performance criteria applicable to an Award, as set forth on the Award Notice.

(g)“RevPAR” means revenue per available room and is calculated by dividing hotel room revenue by the total number of room nights available to guests for a given period.

(h)“RevPAR Index” is calculated as the weighted average of the Company’s relative share of RevPAR compared to each hotel’s competitive set, as defined by STR, Inc. and related institutions, for the Company’s comparable hotels, as defined in the Company’s reports filed with or furnished to the SEC, as of the period end.

(i)“RevPAR Index Growth” is calculated as RevPAR Index for the final year of the Performance Period (2026) less the RevPAR Index for the year prior (2025), using the

Company’s comparable hotels, as defined in the Company’s reports filed with or furnished to the SEC, as of the end of the Performance Period (2026).

HILTON 2017 OMNIBUS INCENTIVE PLAN

This , effective as of the Date of Grant (as defined below), is between Hilton Worldwide Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the individual listed in the Award Notice as the “Participant.” Capitalized terms have the meaning set forth in Section 25, or, if not otherwise defined herein, in the Hilton 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan (as it may be amended, the “Plan”).

1.Xxxxx and Vesting of Performance Shares.

(a)The Company grants the Participant on the Date of Grant the number of Performance Shares as provided in the Award Notice, subject to and in accordance with the terms, conditions and restrictions in the Plan, the Award Notice, and this Agreement.

(b)As promptly as practicable (and, in no event more than 2.5 months) following the last day of the Performance Period, the Committee will determine whether the Performance Components have been satisfied (the date of such determination, the “Determination Date”), and, except as provided in Section 3, and to the extent not previously vested or forfeited as provided in this Agreement, any Performance Shares with respect to which the Performance Components have been satisfied will become vested effective as of the last day of the Performance Period (December 31, 2026). Following the Determination Date (and, in no event more than 2.5 months following the last day of the Performance Period), the Company will deliver to the Participant one Share for each vested Performance Share (as adjusted under the Plan), pursuant to this Section 1, and such vested Performance Share will be cancelled upon delivery of the Share. Any Performance Share which does not become vested effective as of the last day of the Performance Period will be cancelled and forfeited without consideration or any further action by the Participant or the Company. In the event of an equity restructuring, the Committee will adjust any Performance Component to the extent it is affected by such restructuring in order to preserve (without enlarging) the likelihood that such Performance Component will be satisfied. The manner of such adjustment will be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion. For this purpose, “equity restructuring” means an “equity restructuring” as defined in Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification 718-10 (formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 123R).

(c)The Company will, as soon as reasonably practicable following the applicable vesting date (and in any event within 2.5 months of the vesting date), issue the Share underlying such vested Performance Share to the Participant, free and clear of all restrictions. The Company will pay any costs incurred in connection with issuing the Shares. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company will have no obligation to issue or transfer the Shares as contemplated by this Agreement unless and until such issuance or transfer complies with all relevant provisions of law and the requirements of any stock exchange on which the Company’s shares are listed for trading. For the avoidance of doubt, unless otherwise provided in Section 2 below, the Participant is not entitled to pro-rata

vesting of any Shares if the Participant is employed for only a portion of the vesting period, but no longer employed on the respective vesting date.

2.Termination of Employment.

(a)Subject to Section 2(b), Section 2(c), or Section 2(d) below, in the event that the Participant’s employment with the Company Group terminates for any reason, any unvested Performance Shares will be forfeited and all of the Participant’s rights under this Agreement will cease as of the effective date of Termination (the “Termination Date”) (unless otherwise provided for by the Committee in accordance with the Plan).

(b)In the event the Participant’s employment with the Company Group is terminated by the Company Group due to or during the Participant’s Disability or due to the Participant’s death, the full number of Performance Shares granted hereunder will become immediately vested (irrespective of performance) as of the Termination Date, and will thereafter be settled and the respective Shares issued to the Participant in accordance with Section 1(c).

(c)In the event the Participant’s employment with the Company Group is terminated as a result of the Participant’s Retirement after the date that is six (6) months after the Date of Grant, a pro-rated number of the Performance Shares will remain outstanding and eligible to vest, notwithstanding such termination of employment, based on (and to the extent) the Committee’s determination that the Performance Components have been satisfied on the Determination Date, in accordance with the schedule set forth in the Award Notice, so long as no Restrictive Covenant Violation occurs (as determined by the Committee, or its designee, in its sole discretion) prior to the Determination Date, with such pro-ration based on the number of days between January 1, 2024 and the Termination Date (inclusive) relative to the number of calendar days in the period (i.e. 1,095 or 1,096). As a pre-condition to the Participant’s right to continued vesting following Retirement, the Committee or its designee, may require the Participant to certify in writing prior to the applicable vesting date that no Restrictive Covenant Violation has occurred.

(d)If the Participant’s employment with the Company Group terminates for any reason after the last day of the Performance Period and before the Determination Date (other than a termination by the Company Group for Cause or by the Participant while grounds for Cause exist), and no Restrictive Covenant Violation occurs prior to the Determination Date, then all Performance Shares will remain outstanding and eligible to vest based on (and to the extent) the Committee determines that the Performance Components have been satisfied on the Determination Date.

(e)The Participant’s rights with respect to the Performance Shares will not be affected by any change in the nature of the Participant’s employment so long as the Participant continues to be employed by the Company Group. Whether (and the circumstances under which) employment has terminated and the determination of the Termination Date for the purposes of this Agreement will be determined by the Committee (or, with respect to any Participant who is not a director or Officer, its designee, whose good faith determination will be final, binding and

conclusive; provided, that such designee may not make any such determination with respect to the designee’s own employment for purposes of the Performance Shares).

3.Effect of a Change in Control.

(a)Adjustment to Number and Vesting Terms of Performance Shares. Subject to Section 13 of the Plan, in the event of a Change in Control during the Participant’s employment or while any Performance Shares remain outstanding and eligible to vest, and prior to the completion of the Performance Period, the number of Performance Shares eligible to vest under this Agreement will be determined as of the date of the Change in Control (such resulting award, the “Adjusted Award”), with the number of Performance Shares either (x) determined based on actual performance through the most recently completed fiscal quarter, measured against performance levels using only the number of fiscal quarters completed prior to the date of such Change in Control, or (y) determined by the Committee in its good faith discretion. The Performance Shares outstanding under the Adjusted Award will remain outstanding and eligible to vest on the last day of the Performance Period, subject to the Participant’s continued employment through such date (or if the Participant’s Retirement in accordance with Section 2(c) occurred prior to the Change in Control, subject to the Participant’s continued satisfaction of Section 2(c)), and will thereafter be settled and the respective Shares issued to the Participant in accordance with Section 1.

(b)Certain Terminations Following a Change in Control. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Participant’s employment with the Company Group is terminated by the Company Group without Cause, due to or during the Participant’s Disability, or due to the Participant’s death during the 12-month period immediately following a Change in Control, the Performance Shares subject to the Adjusted Award will become immediately vested as of the Termination Date, and will thereafter be settled and the respective Shares issued to the Participant in accordance with Section 1.

4.Tax Withholding. In connection with the settlement of any Performance Shares under Section 1, the Company will withhold a number of Shares in the amount necessary to satisfy applicable U.S. and non-U.S. Federal, state, or local tax or other withholding requirements, if any (“Withholding Taxes”) in accordance with Section 15(d) of the Plan (or, if the Participant is subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act at such time, such amount which would not result in adverse consequences under GAAP), unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Participant and the Company. If any Withholding Taxes become due prior to the settlement of any Performance Shares, the Committee may accelerate the vesting of a number of Performance Shares equal in value to the Withholding Taxes, the Shares to be issued in settlement of such accelerated Performance Shares will be withheld by the Company, and the number of Performance Shares so accelerated will reduce the number of Performance Shares which would otherwise become vested on the applicable vesting date. The number of Performance Shares or Shares equal to the Withholding Taxes will be determined using the closing price per Share on the New York Stock Exchange (or other principal exchange on which the Shares then trade) on the date of determination, and will be rounded up to the nearest whole Performance Share or Share.

5.Dividend Equivalents. With respect to the Performance Shares, the Participant shall be credited with dividend equivalents as and when dividends are paid to the Company’s other shareholders. Dividend equivalents shall accumulate and be paid to the Participant in cash (without interest) as and when the Performance Shares from which the dividend equivalents are derived are settled in accordance with Section 1 and the Participant shall not have any right to such dividend equivalents prior to such settlement. Dividend equivalents shall be subject to the same vesting requirements that apply to the Performance Shares from which such dividend equivalents are derived. If the Performance Shares from which the dividend equivalents are derived are forfeited, the Participant shall have no right to any dividend equivalents.

6.Repayment of Proceeds; Clawback Policy. The Performance Shares, any dividend equivalent payments, and all Shares received in respect of the Performance Shares and all proceeds related to the Performance Shares are subject to the clawback and repayment terms set forth in Sections 15(v) and 15(w) of the Plan and the Company’s Clawback Policy, as amended from time to time, to the extent the Participant is a director or Officer. In addition, if any member of the Company Group terminates the Participant’s employment for Cause or discovers after Termination that grounds existed for a Termination for Cause at the time thereof, then the Participant will be required, in addition to any other remedy available (on a non-exclusive basis), to pay the Company, within ten (10) business days of the Company’s request, the aggregate after- tax proceeds the Participant received in respect of the Performance Shares and any Shares issued in respect thereof. Any reference in this Agreement to grounds existing for a Termination for Cause will be determined without regard to any notice period, cure period, or other procedural delay or event required prior to a finding of, or termination for, Cause.

7.Adjustments Upon Change in Capitalization. The terms of this Agreement, including calculations with respect to any Performance Component, the Performance Shares, any dividend equivalent payments accrued pursuant to Section 5 and/or the Shares, will be subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 13 of the Plan. Any Performance Component measures may at any time be adjusted to reflect events defined in Section 12(d) of the Plan (without regard to any limitations referenced therein pursuant to Section 162(m) of the Code), including, but not limited to, reflect changes to tax laws, accounting principles, or other laws or regulatory rules affecting reported results. This paragraph will also apply with respect to any extraordinary dividend or other extraordinary distribution in respect of the Common Stock (whether in the form of cash or other property).

8.Restrictive Covenants. The Participant acknowledges and recognizes the highly competitive nature of the businesses of the Company Group, that the Participant will be allowed access to confidential and proprietary information (including but not limited to trade secrets) about those businesses, as well as access to the prospective and actual customers, suppliers, investors, clients and partners involved in those businesses, and the goodwill associated with the Company Group. The Participant accordingly agrees to the provisions of Appendix A to this Agreement (the “Restrictive Covenants”). For the avoidance of doubt, the Restrictive Covenants contained in this Agreement are in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other restrictive covenants or similar covenants or agreements between the Participant and any member of the Company Group.

9.Restrictions on Transfer. The Participant may not assign, sell or otherwise transfer the Performance Shares or the Participant’s right under the Performance Shares to receive Shares, other than in accordance with Section 15(b) of the Plan.

10.Performance Shares Subject to the Plan. The Agreement and Performance Shares granted under this Agreement are subject to all terms and provisions of the Plan and all such terms and provisions are incorporated into this Agreement. By accepting the Performance Shares, the Participant acknowledges that the Participant has received and read the Plan and prospectus and agrees to be bound by the terms, conditions, and restrictions set forth in the Plan, this Agreement, and the Company’s policies, as in effect from time to time, relating to the Plan. In the event of a conflict between any term or provision of the Agreement and a term or provision of the Plan, the terms of the Plan will govern and prevail.

11.Governing Law; Venue. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts made and performed wholly within the State of Delaware, without giving effect to the conflict of laws provisions thereof. For purposes of litigating any dispute that arises under this Agreement, the parties consent to and submit to the exclusive and personal jurisdiction and venue of the State of New York or the State of Delaware, and each of the Participant, the Company, and any transferees who hold Performance Shares pursuant to a valid assignment, hereby submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts for the purpose of any such suit, action, proceeding, or judgment.

12.No Additional Rights. By accepting this Agreement and the grant of the Performance Shares contemplated in this Agreement, the Participant expressly acknowledges that:

(a)the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, it is discretionary in nature and may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time, to the extent permitted by the Plan;

(g)the future value of the underlying Shares is unknown, indeterminable, and cannot be predicted with certainty;

(h)the Participant will have no rights to compensation or damages related to Performance Share proceeds in consequence of the Termination of the Participant’s employment for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of contract and/or the application of any clawback or recoupment policy of the Company or any recoupment, recovery, or clawback policy otherwise required by applicable laws;

(i)the grant and the Participant’s participation in the Plan shall not create a right to employment or be interpreted as forming an employment relationship with the Company;

(j)neither the Plan nor this Agreement, nor the Participant’s receipt of the Performance Shares under the Agreement, will impose any obligation on the Company Group to continue the employment relationship of the Participant and the Company Group may at any time terminate the employment of the Participant, free from any liability or claim under the Plan or this Agreement, except as otherwise expressly provided herein;

(k)the Participant’s interest in the Performance Shares will not entitle the Participant to any rights as a stockholder of the Company; and

(l)the Participant will not be deemed to be the holder of, or have any of the rights and privileges of a stockholder of the Company in respect of, the Shares unless and until such Shares have been issued to the Participant in accordance with Section 1.

(a)This Agreement is intended to comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder (“Section 409A”).

(b)Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if the Participant is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A and is subject to U.S. federal income tax, no payments in respect of any Performance Share that is “deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A and which would otherwise be payable upon the Participant’s “separation from service” (as defined in Section 409A) will be made to the Participant prior to the date that is six (6) months after the date of the Participant’s “separation from service” or, if earlier, the Participant’s date of death. Following any applicable six (6) month delay, all such delayed payments will be paid in a single lump sum on the earliest date permitted under Section 409A that is also a business day. The Participant is solely responsible and liable for the satisfaction of all taxes and penalties under Section 409A that may be imposed on or in respect of the Participant in connection with this Agreement, and the Company will not be liable to any Participant for any payment made under this Plan that is determined to result in an additional tax, penalty or interest under Section 409A, nor for reporting in good faith any payment made under this Agreement as an amount includible in gross income under Section 409A. Each payment in a series of payments under this Agreement will be deemed to be a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A.

14.Electronic Delivery and Acceptance. This Agreement may be executed electronically and in counterparts. The Company currently delivers documents related to the Plan by electronic means.

16.No Advice Regarding Grant. The Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding the Participant’s participation in the Plan, or the Participant’s acquisition or sale of the underlying Shares. The Participant should consult with the Participant’s own personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding the Participant’s participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan.

19.Waiver. The Participant acknowledges that a waiver by the Company of the breach of any provision of this Agreement will not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement, or of any subsequent breach by the Participant or any other participant in the Plan.

20.Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx Restrictions/Market Abuse Laws. The Participant may be subject to xxxxxxx xxxxxxx restrictions and/or market abuse laws in applicable jurisdictions which may affect his or her ability to, directly or indirectly, accept, acquire, sell, or attempt to sell or otherwise dispose of Shares, rights to Shares (e.g., Performance Shares), or rights linked to the value of Shares during such times as the Participant is considered to have “inside information” regarding the Company (as defined by the laws and/or regulations in the applicable jurisdictions or the Participant’s country).

California Labor Code Sections 2870, 2871 and 2872

SECTION 2870

(a)Any provision in an employment agreement which provides that an employee shall assign, or offer to assign, any of his or her rights in an invention to his or her employer shall not apply to an invention that the employee developed entirely on his or her own time without using the employer’s equipment, supplies, facilities, or trade secret information except for those inventions that either:

(1) Relate at the time of conception or reduction to practice of the invention to the employer’s business, or actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development of the employer; or

(2) Result from any work performed by the employee for the employer.

(b)To the extent a provision in an employment agreement purports to require an employee to assign an invention otherwise excluded from being required to be assigned under subdivision (a), the provision is against the public policy of this state and is unenforceable.

SECTION 2871

No employer shall require a provision made void and unenforceable by Section 2870 as a condition of employment or continued employment. Nothing in this article shall be construed to forbid or restrict the right of an employer to provide in contracts of employment for disclosure, provided that any such disclosures be received in confidence, of all of the employee’s inventions made solely or jointly with others during the term of his or her employment, a review process by the employer to determine such issues as may arise, and for full title to certain patents and inventions to be in the United States, as required by contracts between the employer and the United States or any of its agencies.

SECTION 2872

If an employment agreement entered into after January 1, 1980 contains a provision requiring the employee to assign or offer to assign any of his or her rights in any invention to his or her employer, the employer must also, at the time the agreement is made, provide a written notification to the employee that the agreement does not apply to an invention which qualifies fully under the provisions of Section 2870. In any suit or action arising thereunder, the burden of proof shall be on the employee claiming the benefits of its provisions.

Exhibit 2 to Appendix B

APPENDIX C

HILTON 2017 OMNIBUS INCENTIVE PLAN

TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR NON-U.S. PARTICIPANTS

Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning given to such terms in the Plan and the . For the avoidance of doubt, all provisions of the Performance Share Unit Agreement and the Award Notice apply to Non-U.S. Participants except to the extent supplemented or modified by this Appendix C or Appendix D.

1.Responsibility for Taxes. This provision supplements Section 4 of the Performance Share Unit Agreement:

(a)The Participant acknowledges that, regardless of any action taken by the Company or, if different, the Participant’s employer (the “Employer”), the ultimate liability for all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, estate tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to the Participant’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable or deemed legally applicable to the Participant (“Tax-Related Items”) is and remains the Participant’s responsibility (or the Participant’s estate or heirs) and may exceed the amount, if any, actually withheld by the Company or the Employer. The Participant further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (1) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Performance Shares, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting or settlement of the Performance Shares, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such settlement and the receipt of any dividends and/or any dividend equivalents; and (2) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Performance Shares to reduce or eliminate the Participant’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if the Participant is subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction, the Participant acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.

(b)In connection with any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, the Participant agrees to make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, the Participant authorizes the Company and/or the Employer, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy any applicable withholding obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following:

(i)withholding from the Participant’s wages, salary, or other cash compensation payable to the Participant by the Company, the Employer, or any other member of the Company Group;

Appendix C - 1

(ii)withholding from any cash payment made in settlement of the Performance Shares or dividend equivalents;

(iii)withholding from proceeds of the sale of Shares acquired upon settlement of the Performance Shares either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on the Participant’s behalf pursuant to this authorization without further consent);

(iv)withholding in Shares to be issued upon settlement of the Performance Shares; or

(v)any other method of withholding determined by the Company, to the extent permitted under the Plan and applicable laws;

provided, however, that if the Participant is subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, then the Company will withhold in Shares upon the relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, unless the use of such withholding method is problematic under applicable law or has materially adverse accounting consequences, in which case, the obligation for Tax-Related Items may be satisfied by one or a combination of methods (i), (ii), (iii) and (v) above.

(c)The Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering statutory withholding amounts or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum rates applicable in the Participant’s jurisdiction(s). In the event of over-withholding, the Participant may receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash (with no entitlement to the equivalent in Common Stock) from the Company or the Employer; otherwise, the Participant may be able to seek a refund from the local tax authorities. In the event of under-withholding, the Participant may be required to pay any additional Tax-Related Items directly to the applicable tax authority or to the Company and/or the Employer. If the withholding obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in Shares, for tax purposes, the Participant is deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject to the vested Performance Shares, notwithstanding that a number of the Shares is held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items.

(d)Finally, the Participant agrees to pay to the Company or the Employer, any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for as a result of the Participant’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to issue or deliver the Shares or the proceeds of the sale of Shares, or to make any cash payment upon settlement of the Performance Shares if the Participant fails to comply with the Participant’s obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.

(e)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or in Section 4 of the Performance Share Unit Agreement, if the Company is required by applicable law to use a particular definition of fair market value for purposes of calculating the taxable income for the Participant, the Company shall have the discretion to calculate any Shares to be withheld to cover any withholding obligation for Tax-Related Items by using either the price used to

Appendix C - 2

calculate the taxable income under applicable law or by using the closing price per Share on the New York Stock Exchange (or other principal exchange on which the Shares then trade) on the trading day immediately prior to the date of delivery of the Shares.

(f)The Participant acknowledges that U.S. estate tax may be assessed if at the time of the Participant’s death, the Participant holds Shares. For individual U.S. citizen taxpayers and for non-U.S. citizen taxpayers who are domiciled in the U.S., no U.S. estate tax is due on estate whose value does not exceed a certain threshold. However, U.S. estate tax law requires that, for the estates of non-U.S. citizens who reside outside the U.S. or who live in the U.S. but are not domiciled in the U.S., a U.S. estate tax return must be filed if the gross estate exceeds a certain threshold (currently US$ 60,000) and U.S. estate tax must be paid on that excess amount. If an estate tax treaty applies, the tax consequences may differ, but the Participant’s estate or heirs may need to file an estate tax return to claim the benefits of an applicable estate tax treaty. Due to the complexity of these laws, the Participant should consult with a personal tax or financial advisor.

2.Nature of Grant. This provision supplements Section 12 of the Performance Share Unit Agreement:

By accepting the grant of the Performance Shares, the Participant acknowledges, understands and agrees that:

(a)the Performance Share grant and the Participant’s participation in the Plan shall not create a right to employment and shall not be interpreted as forming or amending an employment contract with any member of the Company Group;

(b)the Performance Shares and the Shares subject to the Performance Shares, and the income from and value of same, are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation;

(c)unless otherwise agreed with the Company, the Performance Shares and the Shares subject to the Performance Shares, and the income from and value of same, are not granted as consideration for, or in connection with, the service the Participant may provide as a director of any member of the Company Group.

(d)for purposes of the Performance Shares, the Termination Date shall be the date the Participant is no longer actively providing services to any member of the Company Group (regardless of the reason for such termination and whether or not later to be found invalid or in breach of applicable laws in the jurisdiction where the Participant is employed or the terms of the Participant’s employment agreement, if any), and such date will not be extended by any notice period (e.g., the Participant’s period of service would not include any contractual notice period or any period of “garden leave” or similar period mandated under applicable laws in the jurisdiction where the Participant is employed or the terms of the Participant’s employment agreement, if any); the Committee shall have exclusive discretion to determine when the Participant is no longer actively providing services for purposes of the Performance Shares

Appendix C - 3

(including whether the Participant may still be considered to be providing services while on a leave of absence);

(e)unless otherwise provided in the Plan or by the Company in its discretion, the Performance Shares and the benefits evidenced by this Agreement do not create any entitlement to have the Performance Shares or any such benefits transferred to, or assumed by, another company nor be exchanged, cashed out or substituted for, in connection with any corporate transaction affecting the Common Stock; and

(f)no member of the Company Group shall be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between the Participant’s local currency and the United States Dollar that may affect the value of the Performance Shares or of any amounts due to the Participant pursuant to the settlement of the Performance Shares or the subsequent sale of any Shares acquired upon settlement.

3.Foreign Asset/Account Reporting; Exchange Controls. The Participant’s country may have certain foreign asset and/or account reporting requirements and/or exchange controls that may affect the Participant’s ability to acquire or hold Shares under the Plan or cash received from participating in the Plan (including from any dividends received or sale proceeds arising from the sale of Shares) in a brokerage or bank account outside the Participant’s country. The Participant may be required to report such accounts, assets or transactions to the tax or other authorities in his or her country. The Participant also may be required to repatriate sale proceeds or other cash received as a result of the Participant’s participation in the Plan to his or her country through a designated bank or broker and/or within a certain time after receipt. The Participant acknowledges that it is his or her responsibility to be compliant with such regulations, and the Participant is advised to consult his or her personal legal advisor for any details.

4.Termination of Employment. This provision supplements Section 2(c) of the Performance Share Unit Agreement:

Notwithstanding any provision of the Agreement, if the Company receives a legal opinion that there has been a legal judgment and/or legal development in the Participant’s jurisdiction that likely would result in the favorable treatment that applies to the Performance Shares when the Participant terminates employment as a result of the Participant’s Retirement being deemed unlawful and/or discriminatory, the provisions of Section 2(c) regarding the treatment of the Performance Shares when the Participant terminates employment as a result of the Participant’s Retirement shall not be applicable to the Participant and the remaining provisions of this Section 2 shall govern.

5.Compliance with Law. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan or this Agreement, unless there is an exemption from any registration, qualification or other legal requirement applicable to the Shares, the Company shall not be required to deliver any Shares issuable upon settlement of the Performance Shares prior to the completion of any registration or qualification of the Shares under any U.S. or non-U.S. federal, state or local securities or exchange control law or under rulings or regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) or any other governmental regulatory body, or prior to obtaining any

Appendix C - 4

approval or other clearance from any U.S. or non-U.S. federal, state or local governmental agency, which registration, qualification or approval the Company shall, in its absolute discretion, deem necessary or advisable. The Participant understands that the Company is under no obligation to register or qualify the Shares with the SEC or any state or non-U.S. securities commission or to seek approval or clearance from any governmental authority for the issuance or sale of the Shares. Further, the Participant agrees that the Company shall have unilateral authority to amend the Agreement without the Participant’s consent, to the extent necessary to comply with securities or other laws applicable to the issuance of Shares.

6.Language. By accepting the Agreement, the Participant acknowledges and represents that the Participant is sufficiently proficient in the English language, or has consulted with an advisor who is sufficiently proficient in English, so as to allow the Participant to understand the terms of the Agreement and any other documents related to the Plan. If the Participant has received a copy of this Agreement (or the Plan or any other document related hereto or thereto) translated into a language other than English, such translated copy is qualified in its entirety by reference to the English version of the Plan, and in the event of any conflict the English version will govern, unless otherwise required by applicable law.

PERFORMANCE SHARE UNIT AGREEMENT

COUNTRY-SPECIFIC TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning given to such terms in the Plan, the Performance Share Unit Agreement and the Terms and Conditions for Non-U.S. Participants.

Terms and Conditions

This Appendix D includes additional terms and conditions that govern the Performance Shares if the Participant resides and/or works in one of the countries listed below. If the Participant is a citizen or resident of a country (or is considered as such for local law purposes) other than the one in which the Participant is currently residing and/or working or if the Participant moves to another country after receiving the grant of the Performance Shares, the Company will, in its discretion, determine the extent to which the terms and conditions herein will be applicable to the Participant.

Notifications

This Appendix D also includes information regarding exchange controls and certain other issues of which the Participant should be aware with respect to the Participant’s participation in the Plan. The information is based on the securities, exchange control and other laws in effect in the respective countries as of January 2024. Such laws are often complex and change frequently. As a result, the Company strongly recommends that the Participant not rely on the information in this Appendix D as the only source of information relating to the consequences of the Participant’s participation in the Plan because the information may be out of date at the time that the Performance Shares vest or the Participant sells Shares acquired under the Plan.

In addition, the information contained herein is general in nature and may not apply to the Participant’s particular situation and the Company is not in a position to assure the Participant of a particular result. Accordingly, the Participant should seek appropriate professional advice as to how the relevant laws in the Participant’s country may apply to the Participant’s situation.

If the Participant is a citizen or resident of a country other than the one in which the Participant is currently residing and/or working (or if the Participant is considered as such for local law purposes) or if the Participant moves to another country after receiving the grant of the Performance Shares, the information contained herein may not be applicable to the Participant in the same manner.

Purposes and Legal Bases of Processing. The Company processes the Personal Data (as defined below) for the purpose of performing its contractual obligations under the Performance Share Unit Agreement, granting Performance Shares, implementing, administering and managing the Participant’s participation in the Plan and facilitating compliance with applicable law. The legal basis for the processing of the Personal Data (as defined below) by the Company and the third-party service providers described below is the necessity of the data processing for the Company to perform its contractual obligations under the Performance Share Unit Agreement and for the Company’s legitimate business interests of managing the Plan and generally administering the Performance Shares.

Appendix D - 2

Personal Data Subject to Processing. The Company collects, processes and uses the following types of personal data about the Participant: The Participant’s name, home address, email address, date of birth, social insurance, passport number or other identification number, any shares of stock or directorships held in the Company, details of all Performance Shares or any other entitlement to Shares awarded, canceled, settled, vested, unvested or outstanding in the Participant’s favor, which the Company receives from the Participant or the Employer (“Personal Data”).

Stock Plan Administration Service Providers. The Company transfers Personal Data to Fidelity Stock Plan Services and certain of its affiliated companies (collectively, “Fidelity”), an independent stock plan administrator with operations, relevant to the Company, in the United States, which assists the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. In the future, the Company may select different service providers and may share Personal Data with such service providers. The Company’s stock plan administrators will open an account for the Participant to receive and trade Shares. The Participant will be asked to agree on separate terms and data processing practices with the service provider, which is a condition of the Participant’s ability to participate in the Plan. The Personal Data will only be accessible by those individuals requiring access to it for purposes of implementing, administering and operating the Participant’s participation in the Plan.

International Data Transfers. The Company and its service providers, including, without limitation, Fidelity, operate, relevant to the Company, in the United States, which means that it will be necessary for Personal Data to be transferred to, and processed in, the United States. The Participant understands and acknowledges that the United States is not subject to an unlimited adequacy finding by the European Commission and that Personal Data may not have an equivalent level of protection as compared to the Participant’s country of residence. The legal basis for the transfer of the Personal Data to the Company and the third-party service providers described above is the necessity of the data transfer for the Company to perform its contractual obligations under the Agreement.

Appendix D - 3

Data Retention. The Company will use the Personal Data only as long as necessary to implement, administer and manage the Participant’s participation in the Plan, or as required to comply with applicable laws, exercise or defense of legal rights, and archiving, back-up and deletion processes.

Data Subject Rights. To the extent provided by law, the Participant has the right to: (i) request access to and obtain a copy of the Personal Data; (ii) request rectification (or correction) of Personal Data that is inaccurate; (iii) request erasure (or deletion) of Personal Data that is no longer necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, or does not need to be retained by the Company for other legitimate purposes; (iv) restrict or object to the processing of the Personal Data; and (v) if applicable, request that Personal Data be ported (transferred) to another company.

Subject to the applicable data protection laws, application of the above rights may vary depending on the type of data involved, and the Company’s particular basis for processing the Personal Data.

The Participant understands that, as a consequence of the Participant’s refusing to provide Personal Data, the Company may not be able to allow the Participant to participate in the Plan, grant Performance Shares to the Participant or administer or maintain such Performance Shares. However, the Participant’s participation in the Plan and his or her acceptance of this Performance Share Unit Agreement are purely voluntary. While the Participant will not receive Performance Shares if he or she decides against participating in the Plan or providing Personal Data as described above, the Participant’s career and salary will not be affected in any way.

Data Privacy Consent for Participants outside the EEA+ and the U.S.

The Participant acknowledges and agrees to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of the Participant’s personal data as described in the Agreement and any other Performance Share grant materials by and among, as applicable, the Company and the Employer, for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Participant’s participation in the Plan. The Participant understands that the Company and the Employer may hold certain personal information about the Participant, including, but not limited to, the Participant’s name, home address, e-mail address, and telephone number, work location and phone number, date of birth, social insurance number, passport or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, hire date, any shares of stock or directorships held in the Company, details of all awards or any other entitlement to shares awarded, cancelled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in the Participant’s favor, for the purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Participant’s participation in the Plan (“Data”).

The Participant understands that Data will be transferred to Fidelity Stock Plan Services and certain of its affiliated companies (“Fidelity”) which is assisting the Company in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan (or any other third party service provider which may assist the Company in the future), that these recipients may be located in the Participant’s country or elsewhere, and that the recipient’s country may have different data privacy laws and protections than the Participant’s country. The Participant understands that the Participant may request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Data by contacting the Participant’s local human resources representative. The Participant authorizes the recipients to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the purposes of implementing, administering and managing the Participant’s participation in the Plan. The Participant understands that Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage the Participant’s participation in the Plan. The Participant understands that the Participant may, at any time, view Data, request additional information about the storage and processing of Data, require any necessary amendments to Data or refuse or withdraw the consents herein, in any case without cost, by contacting in writing the Participant’s local human resources representative.

The Participant understands that the Participant is providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis. If the Participant does not consent, or if the Participant later seeks to revoke the Participant’s consent, the Participant’s employment status or service with the Employer will not be affected; the only consequence of the Participant’s refusing or withdrawing the Participant’s consent is that the Company would not be able to grant Performance Shares or other equity awards to the Participant or administer or maintain such awards. Therefore, the Participant understands that refusing or withdrawing the Participant’s consent may affect the Participant’s ability to participate in the Plan. For more information

Appendix D - 5

on the consequences of the Participant’s refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, the Participant understands that the Participant may contact the Participant’s local human resources representative.

Finally, the Participant understands that the Company may rely on a different basis for the processing or transfer of Data in the future and/or request that the Participant provide another data privacy consent. If applicable, the Participant agrees that upon request of the Company or the Employer, the Participant will provide an executed acknowledgement or data privacy consent form (or any other agreements or consents) that the Company and/or the Employer may deem necessary to obtain from the Participant for the purpose of administering the Participant’s participation in the Plan in compliance with the data privacy laws in the Participant’s country, either now or in the future. The Participant understands and agrees that the Participant will not be able to participate in the Plan if the Participant fails to provide any such consent or agreement requested by the Company and/or the Employer.

The Participant is required to maintain any Shares acquired under the Plan in an account at a broker designated by the Company (“Designated Account”) and any Shares deposited into the Designated Account cannot be transferred out of the Designated Account unless and until they are sold.

In order to facilitate the foregoing, the Company is authorized to instruct its designated broker to assist with the sale of the Shares (on the Participant’s behalf pursuant to this authorization without further consent) and the Participant expressly authorizes the Company’s designated broker to complete the sale of such Shares. The Participant acknowledges that the Company’s designated broker is under no obligation to arrange for the sale of the Shares at any particular price. Upon the sale of the Shares, the Company will pay to the Participant the cash proceeds from the sale, less any brokerage fees or commissions and subject to any obligation to satisfy Tax-Related Items. If the Shares acquired under the Plan are sold, the repatriation requirements described below shall apply.

Employees transferring from outside of China to a member of the Company Group in China and employees transferring from a member of the Company Group in China to the Company or a member of the Company Group outside of China may become or remain subject to the requirements set forth in this Appendix D, as determined by the Company in its sole discretion.

Dividend Reinvestment. In the event that the Company, in its discretion, declares payment of any cash dividends on Common Stock, the Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Company and/or the designated broker may use such cash dividends to automatically purchase additional Shares to be issued into the Participant’s brokerage account. Any additional Shares acquired pursuant to the preceding sentence are subject to the same exchange control requirements as other Shares the Participant may hold. Any cash dividends not used to purchase Shares or pay associated costs (e.g., broker fees) will be immediately repatriated to China pursuant to the procedures set by the Company in compliance with SAFE requirements.

Exchange Control Requirements. Pursuant to exchange control requirements in China, the Participant will be required to immediately repatriate to China any cash proceeds from the sale of the Shares acquired under the Plan or the receipt of any dividends paid on such Shares (unless immediately reinvested, as described above). The Participant understands that, under applicable laws, such repatriation of the cash proceeds may need to be effectuated through a special exchange control account established by the Company or a member of the Company Group in China, and the Participant hereby consents and agrees that any proceeds from the sale of Shares or the receipt of dividends may be transferred to such special account prior to being

Appendix D - 8

delivered to the Participant. The Participant also understands that the Company will deliver the proceeds to the Participant as soon as possible, but that there may be delays in distributing the funds to the Participant due to exchange control requirements. The Participant understands that the proceeds may be paid to the Participant in U.S. dollars or in local currency, at the Company’s discretion. If the proceeds are paid in U.S. dollars, the Participant will be required to set up a U.S. dollar bank account in China so that the proceeds may be deposited into this account. If the proceeds are paid in local currency, the Company is under no obligation to secure any particular exchange conversion rate and the Company may face delays in converting the proceeds to local currency due to exchange control restrictions.

Finally, the Participant agrees to comply with any other requirements that may be imposed by the Company in the future in order to facilitate compliance with exchange control requirements in China.

The Participant should maintain the FIRC as evidence of the repatriation of funds in the event the Reserve Bank of India or the Employer requests proof of repatriation. It is the Participant’s responsibility to comply with applicable exchange control laws in India. The Participant also agrees to provide any information that may be required by the Company or the Employer to make any applicable filings under exchange control laws in India.

SPAIN

Terms and Conditions

No Entitlement for Claims or Compensation. This provision supplements Section 12 of the Performance Share Unit Agreement and Section 2 of the Terms and Conditions for Non-U.S. Participants:

By accepting the Performance Shares, the Participant consents to participation in the Plan and acknowledges that the Participant has received a copy of the Plan document.

The Participant understands that the Company has unilaterally, gratuitously and in its sole discretion decided to make grants of Performance Shares under the Plan to individuals who may be employees of the Company or other members of the Company Group throughout the world. The decision is limited and entered into based upon the express assumption and condition that any Performance Shares will not economically or otherwise bind the Company or any other member of the Company Group, including the Employer, on an ongoing basis, other than as expressly set forth in the Agreement. Consequently, the Participant understands that the Performance Shares are given on the assumption and condition that the Performance Shares shall not become part of any employment contract (whether with the Company or any other member of the Company Group, including the Employer) and shall not be considered a mandatory benefit, salary for any purpose (including severance compensation) or any other right whatsoever. Furthermore, the Participant understands and freely accepts that there is no guarantee that any benefit whatsoever shall arise from the grant of the Performance Shares, which is gratuitous and discretionary, since the future value of the Performance Shares is unknown and unpredictable.

Appendix D - 10

The Participant understands and agrees that, unless otherwise expressly set forth in the Agreement, the Participant’s termination of employment for any reason (including for the reasons listed below) will automatically result in the cancellation and loss of any Performance Shares that may have been granted to the Participant and that were not fully vested on the Termination Date. In particular, the Participant understands and agrees that, unless otherwise expressly set forth in the Agreement, the Performance Shares will be cancelled without entitlement to any proceeds or to any amount as indemnification if the Participant terminates employment by reason of, including, but not limited to: resignation, death, disability, retirement, disciplinary dismissal adjudged to be with cause, disciplinary dismissal adjudged or recognized to be without cause, individual or collective layoff on objective grounds, whether adjudged to be with cause or adjudged or recognized to be without cause, material modification of the terms of employment under Article 41 of the Workers’ Statute, relocation under Article 40 of the Workers’ Statute, Article 50 of the Workers’ Statute, unilateral withdrawal by the Employer, and under Article 10.3 of Royal Decree 1382/1985.

The Participant also understands that the grant of Performance Shares would not be made but for the assumptions and conditions set forth hereinabove; thus, the Participant understands, acknowledges and freely accepts that, should any or all of the assumptions be mistaken or any of the conditions not be met for any reason, the grant of the Performance Shares shall be null and void.

Notifications

Securities Law Information. The Performance Shares do not qualify under Spanish regulations as securities. No “offer of securities to the public”, as defined under Spanish law, has taken place or will take place in the Spanish territory. The Agreement (including Appendix B and this Appendix C) has not been nor will it be registered with the Comisión Nacional del Xxxxxxx de Valores, and does not constitute a public offering prospectus.

Foreign Asset/Account Reporting Information. The Participant may be subject to certain tax reporting requirements with respect to rights or assets (including cash in a bank or brokerage account) held outside of Spain with an aggregate value exceeding a certain threshold (currently €50,000 per type of asset or right) as of December 31 each year. Unvested awards (e.g., Performance Shares) are not considered assets or rights for purposes of this reporting requirement. If applicable, the Participant must report the assets on Form 720 by no later than March 31 following the end of the relevant year. After the assets and/or rights are initially reported, the reporting obligation will apply only if the value of previously reported assets or rights increases by more than a certain threshold (currently €20,000) as of each subsequent December 31. The Participant should consult with the Participant’s personal advisor to determine the Participant’s obligations in this respect.

In addition, the Participant may be required to electronically declare to the Bank of Spain any foreign accounts (including brokerage accounts held abroad), any foreign instruments and any transactions with non-Spanish residents (including any payments of cash made to the Participant by the Company into a U.S. brokerage account) if the balances in such accounts together with the value of such instruments as of December 31, or the volume of

Appendix D - 11

transactions with non-Spanish residents during the prior or current year, exceed a certain threshold (currently €1,000,000). Once this threshold has been surpassed in either respect, the Participant will generally be required to report all of the Participant’s foreign accounts, foreign instruments and transactions with non-Spanish residents, even if the relevant threshold has not been crossed for an individual item. The Participant will generally only be required to report on an annual basis.

UNITED KINGDOM

Terms and Conditions

Share Settlement. Notwithstanding any provision in the Performance Share Unit Agreement and the Terms and Conditions for Non-U.S. Participants to the contrary, any vested Performance Shares shall be settled in Shares only (and shall not be settled in cash).

Responsibility for Taxes. This provision supplements Section 4 of the Performance Share Unit Agreement and Section 1 of the Terms and Conditions for Non-U.S. Participants:

Without limitation to Section 4 of the Performance Share Unit Agreement and Section 1 of the Terms and Conditions for Non-U.S. Participants, the Participant agrees that the Participant is liable for all Tax-Related Items and hereby covenants to pay all such Tax-Related Items as and when requested by the Company or the Employer or by HM Revenue and Customs (“HMRC”) (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority).

Appendix D - 12

Related Items that they are required to pay or withhold or have paid or will pay to HMRC (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority) on the Participant’s behalf.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant is a director or executive officer of the Company (within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act), the Participant understands that he or she may not be able to indemnify the Company for the amount of any Tax-Related Items not collected from or paid by the Participant, in case the indemnification could be considered a loan. In this case, the Tax-Related Items not collected or paid may constitute a benefit to the Participant on which additional income tax and National Insurance contributions (“NICs”) may be payable. The Participant understands that he or she will be responsible for reporting and paying any income tax due on this additional benefit directly to HMRC under the self-assessment regime and for paying to the Company and/or the Employer (as appropriate) the amount of any NICs due on this additional benefit, which may also be obtained from the Participant by any of the means referred to in Section 4 of the Performance Share Unit Agreement or Section 1 of the Terms and Conditions for Non-U.S. Participants.
