NONSTATUTORY STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT

Granted Under

[NAME OF EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN]

1. Grant of Option.

This agreement evidences the grant by Thermo Xxxxxx Scientific Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), on [ ], 20[ ] (the “Grant Date”) to [ ] (the “Participant”), an employee, officer, consultant, or director of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries, of an Option to purchase, in whole or in part, on the terms provided herein and in the Company’s [Name of Equity Incentive Plan] (the “Plan”), a total of [ ] shares (the “Shares”) of common stock, $1.00 par value per share, of the Company (“Common Stock”) at $[ ] per Share. Unless earlier terminated, this Option shall expire at 5:00 p.m., Eastern time, on [_______] (the “Final Exercise Date”).

It is intended that the Option evidenced by this agreement shall not be an incentive stock Option as defined in Section 422 of the Code. Except as otherwise indicated by the context, the term “Participant”, as used in this Option, shall be deemed to include any person who acquires the right to exercise this Option validly under its terms. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not otherwise defined shall have the same meaning as in the Plan.

2. Vesting Schedule. Except as otherwise provided in paragraphs (c) through (f) of Section 3 below and the Plan, this Option will become exercisable (“vest”) as to__________________. [The vesting of this Option shall be in accordance with the provision of the Plan. In the event of this Option vests based solely on the passage of time, insert the following in the blank above: "[ ]% of the original number of Shares on the [____] anniversary of the Grant Date (the “First Vesting Date”) and as to an additional [ ] % of the original number of Shares at the end of [each] anniversary of the Grant Date following the first anniversary of the Grant Date until the [__________] anniversary of the Grant Date"] provided that on each such vesting date the Participant is, and has been at all times since the Grant Date, an employee, officer or director of, or consultant or advisor to, the Company (an “Eligible Participant”). The right of exercise shall be cumulative so that to the extent the Option is not exercised in any period to the maximum extent permissible it shall continue to be exercisable, in whole or in part, with respect to all Shares for which it is vested until the earlier of the Final Exercise Date or the termination of this Option under Section 3 hereof.

3. Exercise of Option.

Exhibit 10.47

(a) Form of Exercise. Each election to exercise this Option shall be in accordance with the instructions provided from time to time by the Company. The Participant may purchase less than the number of shares covered hereby, provided that no partial exercise of this Option may be for any fractional share.

(b) Termination of Relationship with the Company. If the Participant ceases to be an Eligible Participant for any reason, then, except as provided in paragraphs (c)-(f) below, the right to exercise this Option shall terminate three months after such cessation (but in no event after the Final Exercise Date), provided that this Option shall be exercisable only to the extent that the Participant was entitled to exercise this Option on the date of such cessation.

(c) Death or Disability. If the Participant’s employment with the Company or a Subsidiary is terminated by reason of death or “disability” (as defined below) prior to the Final Exercise Date while he or she is an Eligible Participant, this Option shall vest and become 100% exercisable upon the date of such termination due to death or disability and the right to exercise this Option shall terminate one year following such date (but in no event after the Final Exercise Date). For the purposes of this Agreement, a Participant shall be deemed to be "disabled" at such time as the Participant is receiving disability benefits under the Company's Long Term Disability Coverage, as then in effect.

(d) Discharge for Cause. If the Participant, prior to the Final Exercise Date, is discharged by the Company or a Subsidiary for “Cause” (as defined below), the right to exercise this Option shall terminate immediately upon the effective date of such discharge. The Participant shall be considered to have been discharged for Cause if the Company determines, within thirty (30) days after the Participant's resignation, that discharge for Cause was warranted.

(e) Retirement. If the Participant "retires" from the Company or a Subsidiary prior to the Final Exercise Date then, subject to Section 3(d) above, this Option shall vest and become 100% exercisable upon the date of such retirement and the right to exercise this Option shall terminate on the Final Exercise Date, provided that the retirement date occurs at least two years after the Grant Date. For the purposes of this Agreement, a Participant shall be deemed to have "retired" (i) in the event of a non-employee director of the Company, when he or she ceases to be a director of the Company and (ii) in the event of an employee of the Company or a Subsidiary, upon his or her resignation from employment with the Company or a Subsidiary either (A) after the age of fifty-five (55) and the completion of ten (10) continuous years of service to the Company or a Subsidiary comprising at least twenty (20) hours per week or (B) after the age of sixty (60) and the completion of five (5) continuous years of service to the Company or a Subsidiary comprising at least twenty (20) hours per week. For purposes of this Agreement and for the sake of clarity, subject to execution of a release of claims in a form acceptable to the Company, the Participant may seek to re-characterize any termination of employment initiated by the Company, or a subsidiary of the Company, that is not a “termination for Cause” as a voluntary termination by reason of retirement, in which case the Participant shall not be entitled to receive any severance or other benefits that would have otherwise been provided by the Company to the Participant pursuant to any agreement between the Company and the Participant or any Company policy. Any such determination shall be made by the Committee in its sole discretion.

Exhibit 10.47

(f) Change in Control Event. If the Participant’s employment or service is terminated by the Company or any Subsidiary without “Cause” (as defined below) or by the Participant for “Good Reason” (as defined in the Plan), in each case within 18 months following a Change in Control Event, this Option shall vest and become 100% exercisable upon the date of such termination of employment or service and the right to exercise this Option shall terminate one year following such date (but in no event after the Final Exercise Date).

4. Withholding. No Shares will be issued pursuant to the exercise of this Option unless and until the Participant pays to the Company, or makes provision satisfactory to the Company for payment of, any federal, state or local withholding taxes required by law to be withheld in respect of this Option in accordance with the instructions provided from time to time by the Company; provided, however, except as otherwise permitted by the Board, the total tax withholding where stock is being used to satisfy such tax obligations cannot exceed the Company’s minimum statutory withholding obligations (based on minimum statutory withholding rates for federal and state tax purposes, including payroll taxes, that are applicable to such supplemental taxable income).

5. Nontransferability of Option. This Option may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered by the Participant, either voluntarily or by operation of law, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and, during the lifetime of the Participant, this Option shall be exercisable only by the Participant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company consents to the gratuitous transfer of this Option by the Participant to or for the benefit of any immediate family member, family trust or family partnership established solely for the benefit of the Participant and/or an immediate family member thereof; provided that with respect to such proposed transferee the Company would be eligible to use a Form S-8 for the registration of the sale of the Common Stock subject to such Option under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended; and provided further that the Company shall not be required to recognize any such transfer until such time as the Participant and such permitted transferee shall, as a condition to such transfer, deliver to the Company a written instrument in form and substance satisfactory to the Company confirming that such transferee shall be bound by all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

6. Provisions of the Plan. This Option is subject to the provisions of the Plan, a copy of which is furnished to the Participant with this Option.

7. No Right To Employment or Other Status. The grant of this Option shall not be construed as giving the Participant the right to continued employment or any other relationship with the Company or Subsidiary. The Company and Subsidiaries expressly reserve the right at any time to dismiss or otherwise terminate its relationship with the Participant free from any liability or claim under the Plan or this Agreement, except as expressly provided herein.

8. Clawback. In accepting this Option, the Participant expressly agrees to be bound by, and subject to, the following clawback policy and any clawback policy that the Company has in effect or may adopt in the future

(a) The Option is intended to align the Participant’s long-term interests with those of the Company. Accordingly, subject to Addendum A and unless otherwise expressly provided in

Exhibit 10.47

the Plan or any other applicable agreement, plan, or policy, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Company may terminate any unsettled portion of the Option, whether vested, unvested or unexercised (“Termination”), recapture any Shares acquired pursuant to the Option (“Recapture”), or require the Participant to reimburse the Company for any and all amounts realized from the acquisition or disposition of Shares acquired pursuant to the Option (“Reimbursement”), upon the occurrence of any of the following events (collectively, the “Conditions”):

(i) the Participant has engaged in misuse of the Company’s confidential information and/or conduct in breach of any (A) confidentiality obligation to the Company under any agreement between the Company and the Participant, or any policy or plan of the Company, including but not limited to, the Company’s standard form of Information and Invention Agreement applicable to such Participant, or (B) applicable noncompetition or nonsolicitation obligation to the Company under any applicable agreement between the Company and the Participant, or any policy or plan of the Company, including but not limited to the Company’s standard form of Noncompetition Agreement applicable to such Participant;

(ii) the Participant has been terminated for willfully engaging in illegal conduct or gross misconduct which is materially and demonstrably injurious to the Company (“Cause”). For purposes of the foregoing, no act or failure to act by the Participant shall be considered “willful” unless it is done or omitted to be done, in bad faith and without reasonable belief that the Participant’s action or omission was in the best interests of the Company; or

(iii) during his or her employment, the Participant (A) has rendered services to or otherwise directly or indirectly engaged in or assisted, any organization or business that, in the judgment of the Company in its sole and absolute discretion, is against the interest of the Company or one of its Affiliates; or (B) has engaged in activities that are materially prejudicial to or in conflict with the interests of the Company, including any breaches of fiduciary duty or the duty of loyalty.

For purposes of this Section 8, “Option Benefits” shall mean any and all amounts realized from the acquisition or disposition of Shares acquired pursuant to the Option, including any sales proceeds and/or dividends.

(b) Prior to the issuance of any Shares upon settlement of the Option pursuant to this Agreement, the Participant shall, if requested in writing by the Company, certify on a form acceptable to the Company that the Participant is in compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and with the obligations contained in the Plan, or any other relevant agreement, plan, or contract listed in Section 8(a).

(c) Within ten (10) calendar days after receiving notice from the Company of any such activity described in Section 8(a) of this Agreement, the Participant shall either deliver to the Company the applicable Shares or make a cash payment to the Company equal to the Option Benefits. For purposes of the Company's exercise of its Recapture and/or Reimbursement rights hereunder, the Participant expressly and explicitly authorizes the Company to issue instructions, on the Participant's behalf, to any other brokerage firm and/or third-party administrator engaged

Exhibit 10.47

by the Company to hold Shares and other amounts acquired under the Plan to re-convey, transfer or otherwise return such Shares and/or other amounts to the Company.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 18, the Company may, in its sole and absolute discretion, choose to refrain from exercising its rights of Termination, Recapture and/or Reimbursement with respect to any particular act of the Participant or with respect to any other participant in the Plan, and its determination to refrain from exercising such rights shall not in any way reduce or eliminate the Company’s authority to exercise its rights of Termination, Recapture and/or Reimbursement with respect to any other act of the Participant. Nothing in this Section 8 shall be construed to impose obligations on the Participant to refrain from engaging in lawful competition with the Company after the termination of employment that does not violate the Conditions, other than any obligations that are part of any applicable separate agreement between the Company and the Participant or that arise under applicable law.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or this Agreement, the Company shall not seek to exercise its rights of Termination, Recapture or Reimbursement relating to any Options that were settled more than twelve (12) months prior to the date of the Participant's act or omission set forth in Section 8(a). All Options shall be subject to the Company's rights of Termination, Recapture and/or Reimbursement to the extent required by applicable law, including but not limited to Section 10D of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

9. Governing Law. Except as provided in Addendum A, this Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to any applicable conflicts of laws and in the event of a dispute related to or arising out of this Agreement, the parties submit to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the Delaware federal and Chancery Courts.

10. Affirmative Acceptance of Award. As a condition to the grant of this Option, the Participant must affirmatively accept this Option and Agreement by logging onto Fidelity’s website at xxx.xxxxxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxx.xxx and completing the acceptance procedures reflected therein by no later than one day prior to the First Vesting Date (the “Award Acceptance Deadline”). If the Participant fails to accept this Option and Agreement by the Award Acceptance Deadline, this Award automatically will be forfeited and immediately terminate without any further action by the parties.
