to the last day of the Performance Period, and if the PSUs have not been forfeited as described in Section 2 above, then a number of PSUs for the Performance Period shall remain subject to performance through the end of the Performance Period and shall become earned based upon actual achievement of the applicable performance criteria set forth in Appendix A for the Performance Period on a pro rata basis in an amount equal to (A) the number of PSUs under this Award that become earned based on actual performance as described in this Section 3(c), multiplied by (B) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of completed full months of service by Grantee from the beginning of the Performance Period to Grantee’s date of termination and the denominator of which is the number of months in the Performance Period.

4.Payment and Settlement of Earned PSUs.

a.General. Upon the earning of the PSUs described in Section 3 above, the Company shall, at its election, either: (i) establish a brokerage account for Grantee and credit to that account the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company equal to the number of PSUs that have been earned; or (ii) deliver to Grantee a certificate representing a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of PSUs that have been earned. Such earned PSUs shall be paid and settled as soon as practicable following the Performance Certification Date, but in no event later than March 15 of the year following the end of the Performance Period for which the PSUs were earned.

b.Total and Permanent Disability or Death.

5.Change in Control.

a.Notwithstanding anything in Sections 3 and 4 of this Award to the contrary, if a Change in Control of the Company occurs prior to the end of the Performance Period, and the

successor corporation (or parent thereof) does not assume this Award or replace it with an economically equivalent award, then the target number of PSUs for the Performance Period during which such Change in Control occurs shall become fully earned, assuming achievement of the applicable performance criteria at the target performance level; provided, however that, with respect to any Award that is assumed or replaced, such assumed or replaced Award shall (i) no longer be subject to any performance condition, which shall be deemed satisfied at the target performance level for such assumed or replaced Award (i.e., the Payout Factor shall be deemed to equal one (1)), and (ii) be subject only to a time-based vesting period substantially equivalent to the applicable remaining Performance Period for such award; provided, further, that replacement awards shall be subject to accelerated vesting upon the occurrence of any of the following within 24 months following such Change in Control (or such lesser period as may remain in the Performance Period) (each a “Qualifying Termination”): (A) if Grantee is involuntarily terminated for a reason other than Cause, (B) if Grantee resigns for Good Reason, or (C) Grantee is eligible or becomes eligible for Retirement. For purposes of this paragraph, the terms “Change in Control,” “Cause,” and “Good Reason” are defined in the Omnibus Plan. In the event that Grantee’s employment is terminated for any reason prior to satisfying the time-based vesting condition, other than pursuant to a Qualifying Termination, the Award shall immediately and automatically be forfeited.

b.Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control prior to the end of the Performance Period, all PSUs that become earned pursuant to Section 5(a) above by reason of the failure of the successor corporation (or parent thereof) in the Change in Control to assume this Award or replace it with an economically equivalent award shall be settled within 30 days of the consummation of the Change in Control.

c.Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control prior to the end of the Performance Period and the subsequent assumption or replacement of this Award with an economically equivalent award by the successor corporation (or parent thereof) in the Change in Control, the settlement of any such assumed or replacement award that becomes payable to Grantee on account of Grantee’s Qualifying Termination shall be settled within 30 days following such Qualifying Termination; provided, however that in the event that Grantee is eligible or becomes eligible for Retirement prior to a Qualifying Termination, such award will be settled no later than March 15 of the calendar year following later of (x) the calendar year in which the Change in Control occurs, or (y) the calendar year in which Grantee is eligible or becomes eligible for Retirement.

6.Whole Shares. All earned PSUs shall be paid in whole shares of Common Stock; no fractional shares shall be credited or delivered to Grantee.

7.Adjustments. The PSUs shall be subject to adjustment as provided in Section 16 of the Omnibus Plan.

may satisfy its tax withholding responsibilities, in whole or in part, by either (a) electing to withhold a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock otherwise deliverable in connection with the applicable PSUs that are earned, the Fair Market Value of which shall be determined on the Payment Date (as defined in Section 20 below) in accordance with Section 20 below, to satisfy Grantee’s tax withholding obligation or (b) requiring Grantee to pay, by cash or certified check, the amount necessary to satisfy Grantee’s tax withholding obligation. If Grantee is subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act at the time applicable taxes are assessed, Grantee may satisfy any withholding obligation, in whole or in part, by either (A) electing to have the Company withhold a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock otherwise deliverable in connection with the applicable PSUs that are earned, the Fair Market Value of which shall be determined on the Payment Date (as defined in Section 20 below) in accordance with Section 20 below, to satisfy Grantee’s tax withholding obligation or (B) paying, by cash or certified check, the amount necessary to satisfy Grantee’s tax withholding obligation.

10.Voting and Other Rights.

a.Grantee shall have no rights as a stockholder of the Company in respect of the PSUs, including the right to vote and to receive cash dividends and other distributions until delivery of certificate or equivalent representing shares of Common Stock in satisfaction of the PSUs.

b.The grant of PSUs does not confer upon Grantee any right to continue in the employ of the Company or a Subsidiary or to interfere with the right of the Company or a Subsidiary to terminate Grantee’s employment at any time.

11.Funding. No assets or shares of Common Stock shall be segregated or earmarked by the Company in respect of any PSUs awarded hereunder. The grant of PSUs hereunder shall not constitute a trust and shall be solely for the purpose of recording an unsecured contractual obligation of the Company.

12.Nature of Award. By accepting this agreement, Grantee acknowledges his understanding that the grant of PSUs under this agreement is completely at the discretion of Motorola Solutions, and that Motorola Solutions’ decision to make this Award in no way implies that similar awards may be granted in the future or that Grantee has any guarantee of future employment. Nor shall this or any such grant interfere with Grantee’s right or the Company’s right to terminate such employment relationship at any time, with or without cause, to the extent permitted by applicable laws and any enforceable agreement between Grantee and the Company. Grantee’s acceptance of this Award is voluntary. The Award is not part of normal or expected compensation for purposes of calculating any severance, resignation, redundancy, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension, or retirement benefits or similar payments, notwithstanding any provision of any compensation, insurance agreement or benefit plan to the contrary.

13.Acknowledgements. With respect to the PSUs, this agreement is the entire agreement with the Company. No waiver of any breach of any provision of this agreement by the Company shall be construed to be a waiver of any succeeding breach or as a modification of such provision. The provisions of this agreement shall be severable and in the event that any provision of this agreement shall be found by any court as specified in Section 19 below to be unenforceable, in whole or in part, the remainder of this agreement shall nevertheless be enforceable and binding on the parties. Grantee hereby agrees that the court may modify any invalid, overbroad or unenforceable term of this agreement so that such term, as modified, is valid and enforceable

under applicable law. Further, by accepting any Award under this agreement, Grantee affirmatively states that she or he has not, will not and cannot, rely on any representations not expressly made herein.

14.Motorola Solutions Assignment Rights. Motorola Solutions shall have the right to assign this agreement, which shall not affect the validity or enforceability of this agreement. This agreement shall inure to the benefit of assigns and successors of Motorola Solutions.

15.Waiver. The failure of the Company to enforce at any time any provision of this agreement shall in no way be construed to be a waiver of such provision or any other provision hereof.

16.Actions by the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee may delegate its authority to administer this agreement consistent with applicable law. The actions and determinations of the Compensation Committee or its delegate shall be binding upon the parties.

17.Consent to Transfer Personal Data. By accepting this award, Grantee voluntarily acknowledges and consents to the collection, use, processing and transfer of personal data as described in this Section. Grantee is not obliged to consent to such collection, use, processing and transfer of personal data.

These recipients may be located throughout the world, including the United States. Grantee authorizes them to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the purposes of implementing, administering and managing Grantee’s participation in the LRIP and/or the Omnibus Plan, including any requisite transfer of such Data as may be required for the administration of the LRIP and/or the Omnibus Plan and/or the subsequent holding of shares of stock on Grantee’s behalf to a broker or other third party with whom Grantee may elect to deposit any shares of stock acquired pursuant to the LRIP and/or the Omnibus Plan. Grantee may, at any time, review Data, require any necessary amendments to it or withdraw the consents herein in writing by contacting Motorola Solutions; however, withdrawing consent may affect Grantee’s ability to participate in the LRIP and the Omnibus Plan.

18.Remedies for Breach. Grantee hereby acknowledges that the harm caused to the Company by the breach or anticipated breach of Section 2(b) above will be irreparable and further agrees the Company may obtain injunctive relief against Grantee in addition to and cumulative with any other legal or equitable rights and remedies the Company may have pursuant to this agreement, any other agreements between Grantee and the Company for the protection of the Company’s Confidential Information (as defined in Section 20) or law, including the recovery of liquidated damages. Grantee agrees that any interim or final equitable relief entered by a court of competent jurisdiction, as specified in Section 19 below, will, at the request of the Company, be entered on consent and enforced by any such court having jurisdiction over Grantee. This relief would occur

without prejudice to any rights either party may have to appeal from the proceedings that resulted in any grant of such relief.

19.Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity and interpretation of this Award shall be governed by and construed according to the law of the State of Illinois without regard to any state’s conflicts of law principles. Any disputes regarding this Award or agreement shall be brought only in the state or federal courts of Illinois.

20.Definitions. Any capitalized terms used herein that are not otherwise defined below or elsewhere in this agreement shall have the same meaning provided under the LRIP and the Omnibus Plan.

b.“Fair Market Value” shall be the closing price for a share of Common Stock on the date on which any PSUs earned pursuant to this Award are paid in accordance with Section 4 above (such date, the “Payment Date”), as reported for the New York Stock Exchange-Composite Transactions in the Wall Street Journal at xxx.xxxxxx.xxx.xxx. In the event the New York Stock Exchange is not open for trading on the Payment Date, or if the Common Stock does not trade on such day, Fair Market Value for this purpose shall be the closing price of the Common Stock on the last trading day prior to the Payment Date.

21.409A Compliance Applicable Only to Grantees Subject to U.S. Tax. Notwithstanding any provision in this Award to the contrary, if Grantee is a “specified employee” (certain officers of Motorola Solutions within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(i) and using the identification methodology selected by Motorola Solutions from time to time) on the date of Grantee’s termination of employment, any payment which would be considered “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) that Grantee is entitled to receive upon termination of employment, and which otherwise would be paid or delivered during the six month period immediately following the date of Grantee’s termination of employment, will instead be paid or delivered on the earlier of (a) the first day of the seventh month following the date of Grantee’s termination of employment and (b) Grantee’s death.
