Exhibit 10.41
UNDER THE PATHEON N.V.
2016 OMNIBUS INCENTIVE PLAN
This Award Agreement (this "RSU Award Agreement"), dated as of March 23, 2017 (the "Date of Grant"), is made by and between Patheon N.V., a Dutch public limited company (the "Company"), and Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx (the "Participant"). Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Patheon N.V. 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the "Plan"). Where the context permits, references to the Company shall include any successor to the Company.
1. Grant of Restricted Share Units. The Company hereby grants to the Participant 42,469 restricted share units (the "RSUs"), subject to all of the terms and conditions of this RSU Award Agreement and the Plan.
2. Vesting and Form of Payment. Subject to Section 4 of this RSU Award Agreement, the RSUs shall vest ratably over the first, second and third anniversaries of the Date of Grant. Each RSU granted hereunder shall represent the right to receive one (1) Common Share, which shall be issuable on or as soon as administratively practical following each date of vesting of the applicable portion of the total RSUs pursuant to the terms hereof (and in all events within sixty (60) days after the applicable vesting event); provided, that such issuance is otherwise in accordance with federal and state securities laws.
3. Restrictions. The RSUs may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of or encumbered and shall be subject to a risk of forfeiture until any requirements or restrictions contained in this RSU Award Agreement or the Plan have been otherwise satisfied, terminated or expressly waived by the Company in writing. This RSU Award Agreement shall not be assignable by the Participant.
4. Termination of Employment. Except as otherwise explicitly set forth in a written individual agreement entered into between the Participant and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, the following provisions shall apply:
(a) Termination of Employment for Cause. Upon the termination of the Participant's employment with the Company and all Affiliates thereof by the Company for Cause, this RSU Award Agreement shall terminate and all rights of the Participant with respect to RSUs (whether vested or unvested) shall immediately terminate. The RSUs shall be forfeited without payment of any consideration, and neither the Participant nor any of the Participant's successors, heirs, assigns, or personal representatives shall thereafter have any further rights or interests in such RSUs.
(b) Qualifying Termination of Employment. Upon termination of the Participant's employment with the Company and all Affiliates thereof (i) on account of death, (ii) due to Disability, (iii) by the Company without Cause or (iv) by the Participant for Good Reason, the Participant shall vest in the next tranche of unvested RSUs on a pro rata basis. The prorated portion shall be calculated based on the number of full months in the applicable one-year vesting period during which the Participant was employed by the Company as compared to twelve months. Any portion of the RSUs that does not vest in accordance with the foregoing shall automatically be forfeited on the date of such termination of employment.

Exhibit 10.41
(c) Termination of Employment for any Other Reason. If the Participant has a termination of employment with the Company and all Affiliates thereof for any reason other than the reasons enumerated in Subparagraphs (a) or (b) above, RSUs that are unvested as of date of termination shall be forfeited upon such date.
5. Voting and Other Rights. The Participant shall have no rights of a shareholder until Common Shares are issued upon settlement of the Participant's RSUs. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the bookkeeping account maintained for the RSUs granted pursuant to this RSU Award Agreement shall be allocated additional RSUs on the payment date of any dividends on the Common Shares. Such dividends will be converted into additional Common Shares covered by the RSUs by dividing (i) the aggregate amount or value of the dividends paid with respect to that number of Common Shares equal to the number of shares covered by the RSUs by (ii) the Fair Market Value per Common Share on the payment date for such dividend. Any such additional RSUs shall vest in accordance with the same terms as the RSUs granted under this RSU Award Agreement. No interest or other earnings will be credited with respect to such payment.
6. RSU Award Agreement Subject to Plan. This RSU Award Agreement is made pursuant to all of the provisions of the Plan, which is incorporated herein by this reference, and is intended, and shall be interpreted in a manner, to comply therewith. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this RSU Award Agreement and the provisions of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall govern.
7. No Rights to Continuation of Employment. Nothing in the Plan or this RSU Award Agreement shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue in the employ of the Company or any Affiliate thereof or shall interfere with or restrict the right of the Company or its Affiliates to terminate the Participant's employment at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without Cause.
8. Tax Withholding. The Participant is responsible for all taxes, including any federal, state, or local taxes, social security contributions and national insurance premiums due upon the grant or vesting of the RSUs and the issuance of Common Shares in respect of the RSUs. The Company or a Subsidiary shall be entitled to deduct from the Common Shares otherwise issuable hereunder or other compensation payable to the Participant any sums required by federal, state, local or foreign tax law to be withheld or to satisfy any applicable payroll deductions with respect to the grant, settlement or payment of any RSU. Subject to applicable law, the Company or a Subsidiary shall withhold, from Common Shares otherwise issuable upon settlement of the RSUs, a portion of those Common Shares with an aggregate Fair Market Value (defined as in the Plan but measured as of the date of settlement) equal to the amount of the applicable withholding taxes, contributions and/or premiums; provided, however, that the number of such Common Shares so withheld shall not exceed the amount necessary to satisfy the Company's or the Subsidiary's required tax withholding obligations using the minimum statutory withholding tax rates (or such other amount as may be permitted by applicable law and accounting standards); provided, further, that, subject to applicable law, the Participant may elect to remit to the Company, or the relevant Subsidiary, an amount in cash sufficient to satisfy the applicable withholding taxes, contributions and/or premiums and receive the number of Common Shares issuable hereunder, provided the Company, or the relevant Subsidiary, is notified of the Participant's intention to remit cash prior to the date the RSUs are subject to taxation.

Exhibit 10.41
9. Section 409A Compliance. The intent of the parties is that the payments under this RSU Award Agreement are exempt from, or to the extent subject thereto, comply with, Section 409A of the Code, and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this RSU Award Agreement shall be interpreted and administered in accordance therewith. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, to the extent required in order to avoid accelerated taxation and/or tax penalties under Section 409A of the Code, the Participant shall not be considered to have terminated employment with the Company and its Affiliates for purposes of this RSU Award Agreement until the Participant would be considered to have incurred a "separation from service" within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. Any payments described in this RSU Award Agreement that are due within the "short-term deferral period" as defined in Section 409A of the Code shall not be treated as deferred compensation unless applicable law requires otherwise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this RSU Award Agreement, to the extent that any payment (including Common Share delivery) is to be made upon a separation from service and such payment would result in the imposition of any individual penalty tax and late interest charges imposed under Section 409A of the Code, such payment shall instead be made on the first business day after the date that is six (6) months following such separation from service (or upon the Participant's death, if earlier).
10. Governing Law. This RSU Award Agreement shall be governed by, interpreted under, and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws, and not the laws pertaining to conflicts or choices of laws, of the State of New York applicable to agreements made and to be performed wholly within the State of New York.
11. RSU Award Agreement Binding on Successors. The terms of this RSU Award Agreement shall be binding upon the Participant and upon the Participant's heirs, executors, administrators, personal representatives, transferees, assignees and successors in interest, and upon the Company and its successors and assignees, subject to the terms of the Plan.
12. Necessary Acts. The Participant hereby agrees to perform all acts, and to execute and deliver any documents that may be reasonably necessary to carry out the provisions of this RSU Award Agreement, including but not limited to all acts and documents related to compliance with federal, state or foreign securities and/or tax laws.
13. Severability. Should any provision of this RSU Award Agreement be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, or enforceable only if modified, such holding shall not affect the validity of the remainder of this RSU Award Agreement, the balance of which shall continue to be binding upon the parties hereto with any such modification (if any) to become a part hereof and treated as though contained in this original RSU Award Agreement. Moreover, if one or more of the provisions contained in this RSU Award Agreement shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to scope, activity, subject or otherwise so as to be unenforceable, in lieu of severing such unenforceable provision, such provision or provisions shall be construed by the appropriate judicial body by limiting or reducing it or them, so as to be enforceable to the maximum extent compatible with the applicable law as it shall then appear, and such determination by such judicial body shall not affect the enforceability of such provisions or provisions in any other jurisdiction.
14. Entire RSU Award Agreement. Except as set forth in Section 4 hereof, this RSU Award Agreement and the Plan contain the entire agreement and understanding among the parties as to the
