UNITED KINGDOM
Terms and Conditions
Conversion of Units and Issuance of Shares. This provision supplements Section 4 of the Agreement.
Notwithstanding any discretion or anything to the contrary in the Plan or the Agreement, the Award
does not provide any right for Grantee to receive a cash payment and the Restricted Stock Units
will be settled in shares of Common Stock only.
Tax Obligations. This provision supplements Section 6 of the Agreement:
If payment or withholding of the Tax-Related Items (including the Employer’s Liability, as defined
below) is not made within ninety (90) days of the event giving rise to the Tax-Related Items (the
“Due Date”) or such other period specified in Section 222(1)(c) of the U.K. Income Tax (Earnings
and Xxxxxxxx) Xxx 0000, the amount of any uncollected Tax-Related Items will constitute a loan owed
by Grantee to the Employer, effective on the Due Date. Grantee agrees that the loan will bear
interest at the then-current official rate of Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs (“HMRC”), it will
be immediately due and repayable, and the Company or the Employer may recover it at any time
thereafter by any of the means referred to in Section 6 of the Agreement. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if Grantee is a director or executive officer of the Company (within the meaning of
Section 13(k) of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), Grantee will not be
eligible for such a loan to cover the Tax-Related Items. In the event that Grantee is such a
director or executive officer and the Tax-Related Items are not collected from or paid by Grantee
by the Due Date, the amount of any uncollected Tax-Related Items will constitute a benefit to
1
Grantee on which additional income tax and national insurance contributions (including the
Employer’s Liability, as defined below) will be payable. Grantee will be responsible for reporting
and paying any income tax and national insurance contributions (including the Employer’s Liability,
as defined below) due on this additional benefit directly to HMRC under the self-assessment regime.
Joint Election. As a condition of Grantee’s participation in the Plan and the vesting of the
Restricted Stock Units, Grantee agrees to accept any liability for secondary Class 1 national
insurance contributions which may be payable by the Company and the Employer in connection with the
Restricted Stock Units and any event giving rise to Tax-Related Items (the “Employer’s Liability”).
To accomplish the foregoing, Grantee agrees to execute the following joint election with the
Company, the form of such Joint Election being formally approved by HMRC (the “Joint Election”),
and any other required consent or elections. Grantee further agrees to execute such other joint
elections as may be required between Grantee and any successor to the Company or the Employer.
Grantee further agrees that the Company and the Employer may collect the Employer’s Liability from
Grantee by any of the means set forth in Section 6 of the Agreement.
If Grantee does not enter into the Joint Election prior to the vesting of the Restricted Stock
Units, Grantee will forfeit the Restricted Stock Units and any shares of Common Stock that have
been issued will be returned to the Company at no cost to the Company, without any liability to the
Company and the Employer.
