This Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made by and between Ceridian HCM Holding Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the above-named participant (the “Participant”), effective as of the above-designated grant date (the “Grant Date”).
RECITALS
WHEREAS, the Company has adopted the Ceridian HCM Holding Inc. 2018 Equity Incentive Plan (as the same may be amended from time to time, the “Plan”), which Plan is incorporated herein by reference and made a part of this Agreement, and capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to those terms in the Plan; and
WHEREAS, the Committee has authorized and approved the grant of an Award to the Participant that will provide the Participant the opportunity to acquire shares of Common Stock (“Shares”) upon the settlement of stock units on the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and this Agreement (“Restricted Stock Units”).
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants set forth in this Agreement, the parties agree as follows:
|
1. |
Grant of Restricted Stock Unit Award. The Company hereby grants to the Participant the above-designated number of Restricted Stock Units, on the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and this Agreement, subject to adjustment as set forth in the Plan. |
|
2. |
Vesting and Forfeiture of Restricted Stock Units. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and this Agreement, the Restricted Stock Units shall vest as follows: |
|
|
(a) |
General. Except as otherwise provided in Section 2(b), 25% of the Restricted Stock Units shall vest on the last day of each three (3) month period commencing on the Date of Grant, subject to the Participant’s continued Service through the applicable vesting date. |
|
|
(b) |
Accelerated Vesting. The Restricted Stock Units shall fully vest upon a Change of Control or upon the death of the Participant, subject to the Participant’s continued Service through such date. |
|
|
(c) |
Termination of Service. All unvested Restricted Stock Units shall be forfeited upon the Participant’s termination of Service with the Company or its Subsidiaries for any reason. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Shares (and any resulting proceeds) will continue to be subject to Section 12.2 (Termination for Cause) and 12.3 (Right of Recapture) of the Plan. |
|
3. |
Settlement. The Company shall deliver to the Participant within forty-five (45) days following the vesting date of the Restricted Stock Units a number of Shares equal to the aggregate number of Restricted Stock Units that vest as of such date. No fractional Shares shall be delivered; the Company shall pay cash in respect of any fractional Shares. The Company may deliver such shares either through book entry accounts held by, or in the name of, the Participant or cause to be issued a certificate or certificates representing the number of Shares to be issued in respect of the Restricted Stock Units, registered in the name of the Participant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Restricted Stock Units may be settled in the form of: (a) cash, to the extent settlement in Shares (i) is prohibited under applicable laws, (ii) would require the Participant or the Company to obtain the approval of any governmental and/or regulatory body in the Participant's country of residence , or (iii) is administratively burdensome; or (b) Shares, but the Company may require the Participant to immediately sell such Shares if necessary to comply with applicable laws (in which case, the Participant hereby expressly authorizes the Company to issue sales instructions in relation to such Shares on the Participant's behalf). |
|
4. |
Responsibility for Taxes. |
|
|
(a) |
Participant shall be solely responsible for the payment and withholding of all income and other taxes attributable to Participant under this Agreement (the “Tax-Related Items”), and Participant shall timely remit all taxes to the Internal Revenue Service and any other required governmental agencies. The Participant further acknowledges and agrees that, during and after the Participant’s termination of Service, Participant will indemnify, defend and hold the Company harmless from all taxes, interest, penalties, fees, damages, liabilities, obligations, losses and expenses arising from a failure or alleged failure to make the required reports and payments for income taxes. |
|
|
(b) |
Where the Company is required by local laws in the Participant’s country of residence to deduct or withhold any Tax-Related Items, then prior to the relevant taxable or taxable withholding event, as applicable, the Participant agrees to pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company to satisfy all such Tax-Related Items required to be withheld. In this regard, the Participant authorizes the Company, or its respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy the obligations with regard to all such Tax-Related Items required to be withheld by one or a combination of the following: |
|
|
(i) |
withholding from the Participant’s wages or other cash compensation, if any, paid to the Participant by the Company; |
|
|
(ii) |
withholding from the proceeds from the sale of Shares acquired upon vesting, either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on the Participant’s behalf pursuant to this authorization) including pursuant to a broker-assisted settlement; |
|
|
(iii) |
having the Company withhold Shares that the Participant otherwise would have received upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units; or |
|
|
(iv) |
any other arrangement satisfactory to the Company regarding payment of such Tax-Related Items. |
Depending on the withholding method, the Company may withhold or account for any such Tax-Related Items by considering applicable statutory withholding rates (as determined by the Company in good faith and in its sole discretion) or other applicable withholding rates.
|
|
(c) |
Finally, where and to the extent that Section 4(b) is applicable, the Participant agrees to pay to the Company any number of Tax-Related Items that the Company 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 honor the vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, or refuse to deliver the Shares or the proceeds of the sale of Shares, if the Participant fails to comply with his or her obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items required to be deducted or withheld by the Company. |
|
5. |
Adjustment of Shares. If there shall occur any change with respect to the outstanding shares of Common Stock as provided by Section 4.5 of the Plan, the Restricted Stock Units may be adjusted accordingly. |
|
6. |
Compliance with Laws. If the Participant is resident outside of the United States, as a condition of participation, the Participant agrees to repatriate all payments attributable to the Shares or cash acquired under the Plan (including, but not limited to, dividends and any proceeds derived from the sale of Shares acquired under the Plan) in accordance with local foreign exchange rules and regulations in the Participant’s country of residence. In addition, the Participant agrees to take any and all actions, and consents to any and all actions taken by the Company as may be required to allow the Company to comply with local laws, rules and regulations in the Participant’s country of residence. Finally, the Participant agrees to take any and all actions as may be required to comply with the Participant’s personal legal and tax obligations under local laws, rules and regulations in his or her country of residence. |
|
7. |
Private Placement. If the Participant is resident outside of the United States, the Restricted Stock Units are not intended to be a public offering of securities in the Participant’s country of residence. The Company has not submitted a registration statement, prospectus or other filing with the local securities authorities (unless otherwise required under local law), and the Restricted Stock Units are not subject to the supervision of local securities authorities. |
|
8. |
No Advice Regarding Participation. No employee of the Company or its Subsidiaries is permitted to advise the Participant regarding his or her participation in the Plan. The Participant should consult with his or her own qualified personal tax, legal and financial advisors before taking any action related to the Plan. |
|
10. |
Imposition of Other Requirements: The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on the Restricted Stock Units, any Shares acquired pursuant to the Restricted Stock Units and the Participant’s participation in the Plan to the extent the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that such other requirements are necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons. Such requirements may include (but are not limited to) requiring the Participant to sign any agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing. |
The Participant understands that the Company may hold certain personal information about the Participant, including, but not limited to, the Participant’s name, home address and telephone number, email address, date of birth, family size, marital status, sex, beneficiary information, emergency contacts, passport/visa information, age, language skills, driver’s license information, nationality, C.V. (or resume), wage history, employment references, social insurance number, resident registration number or other identification number, salary, job title, employment or severance contract, current wage and benefit information, personal bank account number, tax-related information, plan or benefit enrollment forms and elections, award or benefit statements, any Shares or directorships in the Company, details of all awards or any other entitlements to Shares awarded, canceled, purchased, vested, unvested or outstanding for purpose of managing and administering the Plan (“Data”).
2
The Participant understands that Data may be transferred to Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxx (or any successor Plan Broker) and any third parties assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan including, but not limited to, the Subsidiaries or Affiliates of the Company. These third-party recipients may be located in the Participant’s country of residence or elsewhere, and 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 Company's People and Culture Organization.
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, including any requisite transfer of such Data as may be required to a broker or other third party with whom the Participant may elect to deposit any Shares acquired. The Participant understands that Data only will be held 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 Company's human resources department. If the Participant does not consent, or if the Participant later seeks to revoke his or her consent, the Participant’s service status and career will not be affected; the only consequence of refusing or withdrawing the Participant’s consent is that the Company would not be able to grant the Participant purchase rights or administer or maintain such purchase rights. Therefore, the Participant understands that refusing or withdrawing his or her consent may affect the Participant’s ability to participate in the Plan. For more information on the consequences of the Participant’s refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, the Participant understands that the Participant may contact the Company's People and Culture Organization.
Finally, upon request of the Company, the Participant agrees to provide an executed data privacy consent form (or any other agreements or consents that may be required by the Company and/ ) that the Company and/ 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 of residence , either now or in the future. The Participant understands and agrees that he or she will be unable to participate in the Plan if the Participant fails to provide any such consent or agreement requested by the Company.

COUNTRY ADDENDUM
This Country Addendum to the Agreement includes additional terms and conditions that govern the Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) and the Participant’s participation in the Plan if the Participant resides and/or works outside of the United States. If the Participant transfers to another country reflected in this Country Addendum, the additional terms and conditions for such country (if any) will apply to the Participant to the extent the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that the application of such terms and conditions is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons (or the Company may establish alternative terms as may be necessary or advisable to accommodate the Participant’s transfer). Capitalized terms not defined in this Country Addendum but defined in the Agreement or the Plan shall have the same meaning as in the Agreement or the Plan.

1. |
Breach of Law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement or the Plan, the Participant will not be entitled to, and shall not claim any benefit (including without limitation a legal right) under the Plan if the provision of such benefit would give rise to a breach of Part 2D.2 of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) (or any successor provision), any other provision of that Act, or any other applicable statute, rule or regulation which limits or restricts the giving of such benefits. |
|
2. |
Tax Information. The Plan is a plan to which Subdivision 83A-C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (Cth) applies (subject to conditions in the Act). |
CANADA

1. |
Securities Law Information. The Participant is permitted to sell Shares acquired through the Plan through the designated broker appointed under the Plan, if any, provided that the resale of such Shares takes place outside of Canada through the facilities of a stock exchange on which the Shares are listed. |
If the Participant is a resident of Canada for purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada), or is subject to taxation in Canada in respect of his or her RSUs, the following provisions apply:
|
3. |
Settlement. Notwithstanding any provisions in the Agreement or the Plan to the contrary, prior to the date that is ten years after the applicable Grant Date (the “Expiry Date”), all or any number of vested RSUs held by such Participant may be converted by the Participant to Shares at the option of the Participant after each Vesting Date. This right may be exercised by delivering an electronically executed notice of conversion (a “Conversion Notice”) in such form, manner and timeframe required by Ceridian. The Conversion Notice shall state the number of vested RSUs such Participant wishes to convert into Shares. As soon as practical following receipt of the Conversion Notice, the Company shall issue and deliver to such Participant a number of Shares equal to the aggregate number of RSUs so exercised in settlement thereof. Any RSUs in respect of which the Participant has not provided a Conversion Notice prior to the Expiry Date will be forfeited and cancelled for no consideration. |

Notwithstanding any provisions in the Agreement or the Plan to the contrary, no cash or other property (other than newly issued Shares) shall be issuable or deliverable by the Company upon the settlement of such Participant’s RSUs hereunder.

NEW ZEALAND

1. |
Securities Law Notice. |
WARNING: This is an offer of RSUs which, upon vesting and settlement in accordance with the terms of the Plan and the Agreement, will be converted into Shares. Shares provide the Participant with a stake in the ownership of the Company. the Participant may receive a return on any Shares acquired under the Plan if dividends are paid.
If the Company runs into financial difficulties and is wound up, the Participant will be paid only after all creditors and holders of preference shares have been paid. The Participant may lose some or all of his / her investment, if any.
New Zealand law normally requires people who offer financial products to give information to investors before they invest. This information is designed to help investors make an informed decision. The usual rules do not apply to this offer because it is made under an employee share scheme. As a result, the Participant may not be given all the information usually required. The Participant also will have fewer other legal protections for this investment. On this basis, the Participant should seek independent professional advice before acquiring any Shares under the Plan.
Prior to the vesting and settlement of the RSUs, the Participant will not have any rights of ownership (e.g., voting or dividend rights) with respect to the underlying Shares.
No interest in any RSUs may be transferred (legally or beneficially), assigned, mortgaged, charged or encumbered.
The Shares are quoted on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "CDAY". This means that if you acquire Shares under the Plan, the Participant may be able to sell them on the New York Stock Exchange if there are interested buyers. The price will depend on the demand for the Shares.
The information on risk factors impacting the Company's business that may affect the value of the Shares, the Participant should refer to the risk factors discussion in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, which are filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and are available online at xxx.xxx.xxx, as well as on the Company's Investor Relations website at xxxxx://xxxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxx.xxx/xxxxxxxx/xxxxxxx.xxxx.
For more details on the terms and conditions of the RSUs, please refer to the Notice, the Plan and the U.S. prospectus for the Plan which are available on the Stock Plan Administrator’s website and free of charge on request via email to XXXXxxxxXxxxxxXxxxx@Xxxxxxxx.xxx..
As noted above, the Participant should carefully read the materials provided before making a decision whether to participate in the Plan. The Participant also should contact his or her tax advisor for specific information concerning the Participant's personal tax situation with regard to Plan participation.

1. |
Responsibility for Taxes. The following provision supplements Section 4 of the Agreement: |
The Participant agrees to be liable for any Tax-Related Items and hereby covenants to pay any such Tax-Related Items, as and when requested by Ceridian or by Her Majesty’s Revenue & Customs (“HMRC”) (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority). The Participant also agrees to indemnify and keep indemnified the Company against any Tax-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 (within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act), the terms of the immediately foregoing provision may not apply. In such case, the Participant understands that the Participant may not be able to indemnify the Company for the amount of any income tax not collected from or paid by the Participant and, therefore, any such income tax not so collected from or paid by the Participant within 90 days after the end of the U.K. tax year in which the event giving rise to the Tax-Related Items occurs may constitute a benefit to the Participant on which additional income tax and national insurance contributions may be payable. The Participant acknowledges that the Company may recover any such additional income tax and national insurance contributions at any time thereafter by any of the means referred to in the Agreement. However, the Participant is primarily responsible for reporting and paying any income tax due on this additional benefit directly to HMRC under the self-assessment regime.
|
2. |
Exclusion of Claim. The Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Participant will have no entitlement to compensation or damages insofar as such entitlement arises or may arise from the Participant ceasing to have rights under or to be entitled to the Restricted Stock Units under the Plan or from the loss of diminution in value of the Shares underlying the Restricted Stock Units. Upon the grant of the Restricted Stock Units, the Participant shall be deemed to have waived irrevocably such entitlement. |
