Section 16 Officers

GESDMS/6575832.1

unsecured obligation of the Company, payable (if at all) from the general assets of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries.

Section 2.2 - Employment Rights

The rights and obligations of the Participant under the terms of his office or employment with the Company or any Subsidiary shall not be affected by his participation in the Long-Term Incentive Program or any right to the Cash Awards. The Cash Awards and the Participant’s participation in the Long-Term Incentive Program will not be interpreted to form an employment agreement with the Company or any Subsidiary. The Participant hereby waives any and all rights to compensation or damages in consequence of the termination of his office or employment for any reason whatsoever insofar as those rights arise or may arise from his ceasing to have rights under or be entitled to earn, or vest in any Cash Awards as a result of such termination. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, any Participant is allowed by a court of competent jurisdiction to assert a claim with regard to rights under the Long-Term Incentive Program, then, by accepting the Cash Awards, the Participant shall be deemed irrevocably to have agreed not to pursue such claim and agrees to execute any and all documents necessary to request dismissal or withdrawal of such claims.

In a case where the Employer is obliged to (or would suffer a disadvantage if it were not to) account for any Tax (in any jurisdiction) or any social security contributions recoverable from and legally applicable to the Participant for which the Participant is liable by virtue of the Participant’s acceptance of the Cash Awards or receipt of the Earned Performance Payment and/or the Cash Payment (the “Tax-Related Items”), the Participant shall make full payment to the Employer of an amount equal to the Tax-Related Items, or otherwise enter into arrangements acceptable to the Employer or another Subsidiary to secure that such a payment is made (whether by withholding from the Participant’s wages or other cash compensation paid to the Participant).

ARTICLE III

PERIOD OF VESTING

Section 3.1 - Commencement of Earning for the Performance-Based Deferred Cash Award

Section 16 Officers

GESDMS/6575832.1

(b) The Performance Objectives may be adjusted to the extent such adjustments would not prevent the Performance-Based Deferred Cash Award from qualifying as qualified performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) of the Code.

(c) The Participant understands and agrees that the terms under which the Performance-Based Deferred Cash Award shall become an Earned Performance Payment as described in Section 3.1(a) above and in Exhibit 1 to the Acceptance Form is confidential and the Participant agrees not to disclose, reproduce or distribute such confidential information concerning the Company, except as required in the course of the Participant’s employment with the Company or one of its Subsidiaries, without the prior written consent of the Company. The Participant’s failure to abide by this condition may result in the immediate cancellation of the Performance-Based Deferred Cash Award.

(d) As of the Certification Date, the Committee shall certify the amount payable under the SMIP, determine the attainment level of applicable Performance Objectives, and based on such certification and determination, shall declare the amount that shall become an Earned Performance Payment under the Performance-Based Deferred Cash Award. Anything to the contrary in this Section 3.1 and Exhibit 1 to the Acceptance Form notwithstanding, the Committee retains sole discretion to determine the amount of the Performance-Based Deferred Cash Award that will become an Earned Performance Payment, subject to any requirements under Code Section 162(m).

(e) If, prior to the end of the Performance Period, (i) the Participant’s employment terminates for reasons other than Cause, or (ii) there is a Change of Control, the Committee, may, in its sole discretion deem the Performance Objectives to be attained at the level (not to exceed the maximum level) determined by the Committee as to all or part of the unearned amount underlying the Performance-Based Deferred Cash Award and deem such amount to be an Earned Performance Payment, provided, however, that any such discretion by the Committee to deem the Performance Objectives attained shall be exercised in a manner that shall not prevent the Performance-Based Deferred Cash Award from qualifying as qualified performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) of the Code.

(f) Any amount of the targeted Performance-Based Deferred Cash Award that is not declared by the Committee to be an Earned Performance Payment shall be forfeited immediately on the earlier of the Participant’s termination of employment or the date that the Committee makes a determination on whether the Performance Objectives were attained.

Section 3.2 - Commencement of Vesting for the Cash Awards

(a) Subject to the Participant’s continued employment with the Xxxxxx Group through the applicable vesting date (set forth in the left column), (i) the Earned Performance Payment underlying the Performance-Based Deferred Cash Award and/or (ii) the Cash Payment underlying the Time-Based Deferred Cash Award shall vest in accordance with this Section 3.2:

Such amounts shall be paid in accordance with Section 3.4 of this Agreement.

(c) Notwithstanding anything herewith to the contrary and except as otherwise set forth in Section 3.1 (b) or (d), (i) any amount of the Performance-Based Deferred Cash Award which is not an Earned Performance Payment at the time of the Participant’s termination of employment shall immediately terminate and will at no time vest or be payable to the Participant; and (ii) any amount of the Time-Based Deferred Cash Awards that has not vested at the time of Participant’s termination of employment (other than due to death or Permanent Disability) shall immediately terminate and will not be payable to the Participant; provided, however, that the Committee may, in the event of termination of employment for reasons other than death, Permanent Disability or Cause, determine in its sole discretion that the Earned Performance Payment and/or the Time-Based Deferred Cash Awards that have not vested, shall become immediately vested. Any amount that becomes payable pursuant to this Section 3.1(c) shall be paid to the Participant in accordance with Section 3.4 hereof.

(d) In the event of a Change of Control, the Cash Awards shall not automatically vest and the Committee shall have the sole discretion to determine whether to accelerate the vesting of the unvested Earned Performance Payments or unvested Time-Based Deferred Cash Awards without regard to whether such Cash Awards are assumed or substituted by a successor company.

Section 3.3 - Acceptance of Cash Awards

The Participant agrees to execute and deliver the Acceptance Form and deliver it to the Company within 45 days of the receipt of this Agreement.

Section 3.4 - Payment of Cash Awards

Except as provided herein, the Earned Performance Payment and/or the Cash Payment will be paid out to the Participant through local payroll within a reasonable period following each vesting date of the Cash Awards, as set out in 3.1 above, but in no circumstance shall the Earned Performance Payment and/or the Cash Payment be paid later than the date that is 2 ½ months following the end of the year in which the applicable vesting date occurs (which payment schedule is intended to comply with the “short-term deferral” exception from the application of Section 409A of the Code). Anything in Section 3.1 hereof to the contrary notwithstanding, the Participant will have no right to the Earned Performance Payment and/or the Cash Payment until

the Earned Performance Payment and/or the Cash Payment are actually paid to the Participant. Subject to Section 6.14 hereof, in the case the Committee exercises its discretion under Section 3.1(e) hereof and the Earned Performance-Based Deferred Cash Award becomes vested on an accelerated basis pursuant to either Section 3.2 (b), (c) or (d), the Earned Performance Payment underlying the Performance-Based Deferred Cash Award shall be paid on April 1st of the year following the last day of the applicable Performance Period.

As a result, the Company strongly recommends that the Participant not rely on the information noted herein as the only source of information relating to the consequences of the Participant’s participation in the 2011 Long-Term Incentive Program because the information may be out of date at the time the Participant vests in the Cash Awards or the Cash Awards become payable.

In addition, the information is general in nature. The Company is not providing the Participant with any tax advice with respect to the Cash Awards. The information is provided below may not apply to the Participant’s particular situation, and the Company is not in a position to assure the Participant of any particular result. Accordingly, the Participant is strongly advised to seek appropriate professional advice as to how the tax or other laws in the Participant’s country apply to the Participant’s situation.

Finally, if the Participant is a citizen or resident of a country other than the one in which the Participant is currently working, transfers employment after the Cash Awards are granted, or is considered a resident of another country for local law purposes, the notifications contained herein may not be applicable to the Participant, and the Company shall, in its discretion, determine to what extent the terms and conditions contained herein shall be applicable to the Participant.

Terms and Conditions

Tax Withholding Obligations

The following provisions replace Section 2.3 of the Agreement:

Section 16 Officers

GESDMS/6575832.1

Prior to the relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, the Participant shall pay or make 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 the Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following (1) withholding from the Participant's wages or other cash compensation paid to the Participant by the Company, the Employer, or any Subsidiary at any time; or (2) payment directly from the Participant by cheque or cleared funds.

The Participant agrees that if he or she does not pay or the Employer or the Company does not withhold from the Participant the full amount of Tax-Related Items that the Participant owes at the time the Participant receives an Earned Performance Payment and/or a Cash Payment, or the receipt of any other benefit in connection with the Cash Awards (the “Taxable Event”), within 90 days after the Taxable Event or such other period specified in section 222(1)(c) of the U.K. Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Xxx 0000, then the amount that should have been withheld shall constitute a loan owed by the Participant to the Employer, effective 90 days after the Taxable Event. The Participant agrees that the loan will bear interest at the official rate of HM Revenue & Customs (“HMRC”) and will be immediately due and repayable by the Participant, and the Company and/or the Employer may recover it at any time thereafter by withholding the funds from the Earned Performance Payment and/or a Cash Payment or by demanding cash or a cheque from the Participant.

The Participant acknowledges that the Company or the Employer may recover any such additional income tax and National Insurance Contributions (“NICs”) at any time thereafter by any of the means referred to in the Section 2.3 of the Agreement, although the Participant acknowledges that the Participant ultimately will be responsible for reporting any income tax or NICs due on this additional benefit directly to HMRC under the self-assessment regime.
