Restricted Stock Unit Agreement FOURTH AMENDED AND RESTATED REVLON, INC. STOCK PLAN
Exhibit 10.2
FOURTH AMENDED AND RESTATED REVLON, INC. STOCK PLAN
This RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into between REVLON, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Revlon” and, together with Revlon’s affiliates, the “Company”), and E. Xxxxx Xxxxxxx, a non-employee director of Revlon (the “Grantee”) on November 3, 2016 (the “Grant Date”), subject to the Grantee’s acceptance of this Agreement.
Revlon’s Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) has determined that the objectives of the Fourth Amended and Restated Revlon, Inc. Stock Plan, as amended (the “Plan”), will be furthered by granting to the Grantee Restricted Stock Units, subject to certain restrictions, upon the terms and conditions hereinafter contained (“RSUs” or the “Restricted Stock Unit Award”). Each RSU represents the right to receive one share of Revlon, Inc. Class A common stock (“Common Stock”), subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement (this “Agreement”).
In consideration of the foregoing and of the mutual undertakings set forth in this Agreement, the Company and the Grantee agree as follows:
SECTION 1. Notice of Grant; Grant of RSUs. Subject to Section 9 of this Agreement, the Company hereby grants to the Grantee the number of RSUs designated in the notice of grant from the Company which accompanies this Agreement as Schedule 2 hereto, or the online award summary referred to therein (the “Notice of Grant”). However, the Grantee shall have no right to the delivery of any shares of Common Stock subject to the RSUs except to the extent such RSUs have vested. Prior to the actual delivery of shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 2 hereof, the RSUs will represent an unsecured obligation of the Company. The Grantee shall not be required to make any payment for the RSUs.
SECTION 2. Restrictions.
(a) Vesting of RSUs. For so long as the Restricted Stock Unit Award shall not be canceled pursuant to the terms of the Plan or this Agreement (or the consulting and transition agreement entered into between the Company and the Grantee on November 2, 2016 (the “Transition Agreement”)), one-third of the RSUs shall vest on each of the first three anniversaries of the Grant Date (the “Original Vesting Schedule”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the RSUs which are the subject of this Agreement shall immediately vest upon a “Change of Control,” as defined in Schedule 1 hereto.
(b) Issuance of Shares. No shares of Common Stock shall be issued or delivered to the Grantee prior to the date on which the RSUs vest. As soon as reasonably practicable after any RSUs vest, but in no event more than 10 days following the applicable vesting event, subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Company shall cause to be issued to the Grantee (in book-entry form or otherwise) shares of Common Stock with respect to such vested RSUs. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no RSUs that vest upon a Change of Control will be settled on such Change of Control unless such Change of Control is also a “change in effective control” or “change in ownership” under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (in either case, a “409A Change of Control”). If such Change of Control is not also a 409A Change of Control, then any vested RSUs (or other form of consideration) received by shareholders of the Company in respect of shares of Common Shares in connection with such Change of Control shall be delivered to the Grantee no more than 10 days following the applicable vesting date on which the RSUs would have otherwise vested in accordance with the Original Vesting Schedule.

Exhibit 10.2
SECTION 3. Rights as Stockholder. Neither the Grantee nor any person claiming under or through the Grantee will have any of the rights or privileges of a stockholder of the Company in respect of any shares of Common Stock deliverable hereunder unless and until certificates representing such shares of Common Stock (which may be in book-entry form) have been issued and recorded on the records of the Company or its transfer agents or registrars and delivered to the Grantee (including through electronic delivery to a brokerage account), including, but not limited to, the right to vote and to receive dividends and other distributions. After such issuance, recordation and delivery, the Grantee will have all the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to such shares.
SECTION 4. Taxes. The Grantee is liable and responsible for all taxes owed in connection with the RSUs, regardless of any action the Company takes with respect to any tax obligations that arise in connection with the RSUs. The Company makes no representation or undertaking regarding the tax treatment in connection with the grant or vesting of the RSUs or the subsequent sale of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the RSUs. The Company does not commit to and is under no obligation to structure the RSUs to reduce or eliminate the Grantee’s tax liability. The Grantee acknowledges and agrees that he is not an employee of the Company and that, as a non-employee director of Revlon, the Grantee will be required to pay (and the Company will not withhold or remit) any applicable taxes in connection with the RSUs.
SECTION 5. Termination of Service with the Company.
(a) Subject to Section 5(b) below, effective as of the date of the Grantee’s termination of service with the Company for any reason, all RSUs which are unvested as provided in Section 2 of this Agreement shall be canceled, except to the extent the Committee may otherwise determine.
(b) In the event that the Grantee’s service with the Company is terminated pursuant to subsections (ii) or (iii) of Section 1(f) of the Transition Agreement, the Grantee shall continue to vest in the RSUs in accordance with the Original Vesting Schedule as and to the extent provided in Section 1(e) of the Transition Agreement, which is incorporated herein by reference.
(c) Nothing in the Plan or this Agreement shall confer upon the Grantee or any other person the right to continue in the service of the Company or affect any right which the Company may have to terminate the service of the Grantee or any other person.
SECTION 6. Plan Provisions to Prevail. This Agreement shall be subject to all of the terms and provisions of the Plan, as it may be amended from time to time, which are incorporated hereby and made a part hereof, including, without limitation, the provisions of Section 2.9(c) of the Plan (generally prohibiting the sale of shares not owned or immediately issuable and failure to duly deliver shares in settlement), Section 3.8(c) of the Plan (generally relating to waivers of claims to continued exercise or vesting of awards, damages and severance entitlements related to non-continuation of awards), Section 3.2 of the Plan (generally relating to consents required by securities and other laws), Section 3.5 of the Plan (relating to changes in capitalization) and Section 3.11 of the Plan (generally relating to the effects of certain reorganizations and other extraordinary transactions). Any term defined in the Plan shall have the same meaning in this Agreement, unless otherwise defined herein. In the event there is any inconsistency between the provisions of this Agreement and the Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall govern. In the event there is any inconsistency regarding the details of the grant between the records or communications of the Company’s outside Stock Plan Administrator and the resolutions and/or minutes of the Committee authorizing the RSUs subject to this Agreement, the Committee’s records shall prevail over the records, communications, databases and

Exhibit 10.2
online summaries or presentations of those grant details furnished or maintained by the Company’s outside Stock Plan Administrator. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of Section 1(e) of the Transition Agreement hereof shall govern and control over any conflicting provisions of the Plan, including without limitation the “default rules” under Section 2.10 of the Plan.
SECTION 7. Grantee’s Acknowledgment. By entering into this Agreement, the Grantee agrees and acknowledges that (a) he/she has received, read and understood a copy of the Plan, including Section 3.8(c) of the Plan (generally relating to waivers of claims to continued exercise or vesting of awards, damages and severance entitlements related to non-continuation of awards) and this Agreement, and accepts the RSUs upon all of the terms thereof, and (b) that no member of the Committee shall be liable for any Plan Action (as defined in the Plan), including without limitation any action or determination made in good faith with respect to the Plan or any award thereunder or under this Agreement. The Grantee has reviewed with his or her own advisors the tax and other consequences of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Grantee is relying solely on such advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company or any of its agents with respect to all matters of this Agreement.
SECTION 8. Nontransferability; Limitations on the Sale of Common Stock.
(a) No RSUs granted to the Grantee under this Agreement shall be assignable or transferable by the Grantee (voluntarily or by operation of law), other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution prior to vesting of the RSUs set forth in the Plan and this Agreement applicable thereto.
(b) The Grantee may sell, assign and/or transfer the shares of Common Stock issued in respect of the RSUs pursuant to this Agreement, in whole or in part, subject to compliance with the Company’s trading policies, as provided in Section 16 hereof. Unless the Committee otherwise determines, the Grantee shall not have the right to pledge, hypothecate or encumber the RSUs granted pursuant to this Agreement. Any attempt to dispose of the RSUs and the shares of Common Stock issued in respect thereof in contravention of such restrictions shall be null and void and without effect.
SECTION 9. Conditions. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the grant of the RSUs pursuant to Section 1 hereof is conditioned upon and subject to the Grantee’s execution and delivery to the Company of an executed copy of this Agreement (which shall be electronically accepted by the Grantee pursuant to processes prescribed by the Company).

Any notice to be given to the Grantee hereunder shall be in writing and shall be addressed to the Grantee at the address set forth below, or at such other address as the Grantee may hereafter designate to the Company by notice as provided herein, or at such other address of the Grantee on file with the Company’s human resource or payroll records, whichever is later communicated. Subject to the foregoing, notices hereunder shall be deemed to have been duly given when sent by email or personal delivery, or three business days following delivery by registered or certified mail, or on the next business day if sent via overnight courier, in each case to the party entitled to receive the same in the manner provided in this Section 10.
SECTION 11. Successors and Assigns.
