Motorola may enforce this Section 7(c)(i) during the Motorola Service Period and the two years following Executive’s termination of employment with Motorola for any reason; provided , however , that Motorola may no longer enforce this Section 7(c)(i) if Executive becomes an employee of MDB Public by virtue of the Separation Event or an employee of MDB Other by virtue of an Other Transaction Event. MDB Public may enforce this Section 7(c)(i) during the MDB Public Service Period and the two years following Executive’s termination of employment with MDB Public for any reason. MDB Other may enforce this Section 7(c)(i) during the MDB Other Service Period and the two years following Executive’s termination of employment with MDB Other for any reason.
(ii) For purposes of this Agreement, “Listed Company” shall mean any company identified by the Company as a Listed Company (including the Listed Company’s subsidiaries and any successor to such Listed Company or to all or substantially all of such Listed Company’s handheld mobile or smart phone devices business, which successor shall replace such Listed Company); provided , however , that (1) there shall be no more than seventeen (17) Listed Companies at any one time, (2) until December 31, 2010, the Company may unilaterally replace one Listed Company per calendar year based on its good faith belief that any new Listed Company engages in the handheld mobile or smart phone device business (but there will be no replacement pursuant to this clause (2) during calendar year 2008), (3) after December 31, 2010, the Company may unilaterally replace up to three Listed Companies per calendar year based on its good faith belief that any new Listed Company engages in the handheld mobile or smart phone device business, (4) the addition of any Listed Company by the Company shall not be effective until sixty (60) days after it is so listed and (5) the Company may not revise the list of Listed Companies on or after the Date of Termination (and no change made during the sixty (60) day period preceding termination of Executive’s employment shall be effective). The Chief Human Resources Officer shall maintain and make available to Executive the current list of Listed Companies. The initial list of Listed Companies is set forth as Schedule A to this Agreement.
(iii) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Section 7(c) shall not prevent Executive from: acquiring securities representing not more than 3% of the outstanding voting securities of any entity the securities of which are traded on a national securities exchange or in the over the counter market or an interest of more than 3% of a private company owned through any pooled investment fund, mutual fund or hedge fund, in each case, so long as the Executive has no active participation in any such investment.
(d) Assistance. The Executive agrees that during and after his employment by Such Company, the Executive will reasonably assist Such Company in the defense of any claims, or potential claims that may be made or threatened to be made against Such Company in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or otherwise (a “ Proceeding ”), and will reasonably assist Such Company in the prosecution of any claims that may be made by Such Company in any Proceeding, to the extent that such claims may relate to the Executive’s employment or the period of the Executive’s employment by Such Company. The Executive agrees, unless precluded by law, to promptly inform Such Company if the Executive is asked to participate
-21-
(or otherwise become involved) in any Proceeding involving such claims or potential claims. The Executive also agrees, unless precluded by law, to promptly inform Such Company if the Executive is asked to reasonably assist in any investigation (whether governmental or otherwise) of Such Company (or its actions), regardless of whether a lawsuit has then been filed against Such Company with respect to such investigation. The Company agrees to reimburse the Executive for all of the Executive’s reasonable out-of-pocket expenses associated with such reasonable assistance, including travel expenses and any attorneys’ fees and shall pay a reasonable per diem fee for the Executive’s service. In addition, the Executive agrees to provide such services as are reasonably requested by Such Company to assist any successor to the Executive in the transition of duties and responsibilities to such successor. Any services or assistance contemplated in this Section 7(d) shall be at mutually agreed to and convenient times.
(e) Remedies. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that the terms of Section 7: (i) are reasonable in geographic and temporal scope, (ii) are necessary to protect legitimate proprietary and business interests of Motorola, MDB Public and MDB Other, as applicable in, inter alia , near permanent customer relationships and confidential information. The Executive further acknowledges and agrees that (x) the Executive’s breach of the provisions of Section 7 will cause Motorola, MDB Public or MDB Other, as applicable, irreparable harm, which cannot be adequately compensated by money damages, and (y) if Motorola, MDB Public, or MDB Other, as applicable, elects to prevent the Executive from breaching such provisions by obtaining an injunction against the Executive, there is a reasonable probability of Such Company’s eventual success on the merits. The Executive consents and agrees that if the Executive commits any such breach or threatens to commit any breach, Such Company shall be entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive relief from a court of competent jurisdiction, in addition to, and not in lieu of, such other remedies as may be available to Such Company for such breach, including the recovery of money damages. In addition, the Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Company equity award agreements (other than award agreements with respect to the Make-Whole Restricted Stock Units, Make-Whole Stock Option, the Inducement Restricted Stock Units and the Inducement Stock Options) may contain “clawback” and recoupment provisions in the form included in the documents attached hereto as Exhibit A and Exhibit C . The Parties further acknowledge and agree that the provisions of Section 10(a) below are accurate and necessary because (A) this Agreement is entered into in the State of Illinois, (B) as of the Effective Date, Illinois will have a substantial relationship to the Parties and to this transaction, (C) as of the Effective Date, Illinois will be the headquarters state of the Company, which has operations nationwide and has a compelling interest in having its employees treated uniformly within the United States, (D) the use of Illinois law provides certainty to the Parties in any covenant litigation in the United States, and (E) enforcement of the provision of this Section 7 would not violate any fundamental public policy of Illinois or any other jurisdiction. If any of the provisions of Section 7 are determined to be wholly or partially unenforceable, the Executive hereby agrees that this Agreement or any provision hereof may be reformed so that it is enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law. If any of the provisions of this Section 7 are determined to be wholly or partially unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such determination shall not be a bar to or in any way diminish Such Company’s right to enforce any such covenant in any other jurisdiction.
(f) Agreement Following Termination of Employment. Executive agrees that upon termination of employment with the Company and during the two year period immediately following the Date of Termination, Executive will immediately inform the Company of (i) the identity of any new employer (or the nature of any start-up business or self-employment), (ii) Executive’s new title, and (iii) Executive’s job duties and responsibilities. Executive hereby authorizes the Company or a subsidiary to provide a copy of this Agreement to Executive’s new employer. Executive further agrees to provide information to the Company or a subsidiary as may from time to time be requested in order to determine his/her compliance with the terms hereof.
-22-
(g) Other Provisions. No grant, award or benefit to be provided to the Executive during the Initial Term shall require the Executive to agree to any restrictive covenants or forfeiture provisions broader than those provided herein and in Exhibit A, Exhibit B and Exhibit C.
8. Certain Additional Payments by the Company
(a) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding and except as set forth below, in the event it shall be determined that any Payment would be subject to the Excise Tax, then Executive shall be entitled to receive an additional payment (the “ Gross-Up Payment ”) in an amount such that, after payment by Executive of all taxes (and any interest or penalties imposed with respect to such taxes), including, without limitation, any income taxes (and any interest and penalties imposed with respect thereto) and Excise Tax imposed upon the Gross-Up Payment, but excluding any income taxes and penalties imposed pursuant to Section 409A, Executive retains an amount of the Gross-Up Payment equal to the Excise Tax imposed upon the Payments. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 8(a), if it shall be determined that Executive is entitled to the Gross-Up Payment, but that the Parachute Value of all Payments does not exceed 110% of the Safe Harbor Amount, then no Gross-Up Payment shall be made to Executive and the amounts payable under this Agreement shall be reduced so that the Parachute Value of all Payments, in the aggregate, equals the Safe Harbor Amount. The reduction of the amounts payable hereunder, if applicable, shall be made by reducing the payments and benefits under the following sections in the following order: (i) Section 5(b)(i)(B), (ii) Section 5(b)(i)(C) and Section 5(b)(ii). For purposes of reducing the Payments to the Safe Harbor Amount, only amounts payable under this Agreement (and no other Payments) shall be reduced. If the reduction of the amount payable under this Agreement would not result in a reduction of the Parachute Value of all Payments to the Safe Harbor Amount, no amounts payable under the Agreement shall be reduced pursuant to this Section 8(a) and the Executive shall be treated hereunder as if the Parachute Value is in excess of 110% of the Safe Harbor Amount. The Company’s obligation to make Gross-Up Payments under this Section 8 shall not be conditioned upon Executive’s termination of employment.
(b) Subject to the provisions of Section 8(c), all determinations required to be made under this Section 8, including whether and when a Gross-Up Payment is required, the amount of such Gross-Up Payment and the assumptions to be utilized in arriving at such determination, shall be made by KPMG LLP, or such other nationally recognized certified public accounting firm as may be designated by Executive (the “ Accounting Firm ”), provided that for purposes of determining the amount of the Gross-Up Payment, Executive’s marginal blended actual rates of federal, state and local income taxation in the calendar year in which the change in ownership or effective control that subjects Executive to the Excise Tax occurs shall be used. The Accounting Firm shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to the Company and Executive within fifteen (15) business days of the receipt of notice from Executive that there has been a Payment or such earlier time as is requested by the Company. In the event that the Accounting Firm is serving as accountant or auditor for the individual, entity or group effecting the Change of Control, Executive may appoint another nationally recognized accounting firm to make the determinations required hereunder (which accounting firm shall then be referred to as the Accounting Firm hereunder). All fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be borne solely by the Company. Any determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding upon
-23-
the Company and Executive. As a result of the uncertainty in the application of Section 4999 of the Code at the time of the initial determination by the Accounting Firm hereunder, it is possible that Gross-Up Payments that will not have been made by the Company should have been made (the “ Underpayment ”), consistent with the calculations required to be made hereunder. In the event the Company exhausts its remedies pursuant to Section 8(c) and Executive thereafter is required to make a payment of any Excise Tax, the Accounting Firm shall determine the amount of the Underpayment that has occurred and any such Underpayment shall be promptly paid by the Company to or for the benefit of Executive. If Section 280G of the Code requires a calculation of the Excise Tax and/or the Gross-Up Payment at more than one point in time, each such calculation shall be made by the Accounting Firm on an aggregate basis and this Section 8, properly adjusted, shall reapply.
(c) Executive shall notify the Company in writing of any claim by the Internal Revenue Service that, if successful, would require the payment by the Company of the Gross-Up Payment. Such notification shall be given as soon as practicable, but no later than ten (10) business days after Executive is informed in writing of such claim. Executive shall apprise the Company of the nature of such claim and the date on which such claim is requested to be paid. Executive shall not pay such claim prior to the expiration of the thirty (30) day period following the date on which Executive gives such notice to the Company (or such shorter period ending on the date that any payment of taxes with respect to such claim is due). If the Company notifies Executive in writing prior to the expiration of such period that the Company desires to contest such claim, Executive shall:
(i) give the Company any information reasonably requested by the Company relating to such claim,
(ii) take such action in connection with contesting such claim as the Company shall reasonably request in writing from time to time, including, without limitation, accepting legal representation with respect to such claim by an attorney reasonably selected by the Company,
(iii) cooperate with the Company in good faith in order effectively to contest such claim; and
(iv) permit the Company to participate in any proceedings relating to such claim;
provided, however, that the Company shall bear and pay directly all costs and expenses (including additional interest and penalties) incurred in connection with such contest, and shall indemnify and hold Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, for any Excise Tax or income tax (including interest and penalties) imposed as a result of such representation and payment of costs and expenses. Without limitation on the foregoing provisions of this Section 8(c), the Company shall control all proceedings taken in connection with such contest, and, at its sole discretion, may pursue or forgo any and all administrative appeals, proceedings, hearings and conferences with the applicable taxing authority in respect of such claim and may, at its sole discretion, either pay the tax claimed to the appropriate taxing authority on behalf of Executive and direct Executive to xxx for a refund or contest the claim in any permissible manner, and Executive agrees to prosecute such contest to a determination before any administrative tribunal, in a court of initial jurisdiction and in one or more appellate courts, as the Company shall determine; provided , however , that, if the Company pays such claim and directs Executive to xxx for a refund, the Company shall indemnify and hold Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, from any Excise Tax or income tax (including interest or penalties) imposed with respect to such payment or with
-24-
respect to any imputed income in connection with such payment; andprovided,further, that any extension of the statute of limitations relating to payment of taxes for the taxable year of Executive with respect to which such contested amount is claimed to be due is limited solely to such contested amount. Furthermore, the Company’s control of the contest shall be limited to issues with respect to which the Gross-Up Payment would be payable hereunder, and Executive shall be entitled to settle or contest, as the case may be, any other issue raised by the Internal Revenue Service or any other taxing authority. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment or reimbursement made pursuant to Section 8 shall be paid to the Executive promptly and in no event later than the end of the calendar year next following the calendar year in which the related tax is paid by the Executive or as otherwise provided under Treasury Regulation §1.409A-3(i)(1)(v).
(d) If, after the receipt by Executive of a Gross-Up Payment or payment by the Company of an amount on Executive’s behalf pursuant to Section 8(c), Executive becomes entitled to receive any refund with respect to the Excise Tax to which such Gross-Up Payment relates or with respect to such claim, Executive shall (subject to the Company’s complying with the requirements of Section 8(c), if applicable) promptly pay to the Company the amount of such refund (together with any interest paid or credited thereon after taxes applicable thereto). If, after payment by the Company of an amount on Executive’s behalf pursuant to Section 8(c), a determination is made that Executive shall not be entitled to any refund with respect to such claim and the Company does not notify Executive in writing of its intent to contest such denial of refund prior to the expiration of thirty (30) days after such determination, then the amount of such payment shall offset, to the extent thereof, the amount of Gross-Up Payment required to be paid; provided , however , that no offset shall apply to any amounts subject to Section 409A.
(e) Any Gross-Up Payment, as determined pursuant to this Section 8, shall be paid by the Company to Executive within five (5) days of the receipt of the Accounting Firm’s determination; provided that the Gross-Up Payment shall in all events be paid no later than the end of Executive’s taxable year next following Executive’s taxable year in which the Excise Tax (and any income or other related taxes or interest or penalties thereon) on a Payment are remitted to the Internal Revenue Service or any other applicable taxing authority or, in the case of amounts relating to a claim described in Section 8(c) that does not result in the remittance of any federal, state, local and foreign income, excise, social security and other taxes, the calendar year in which the claim is finally settled or otherwise resolved. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 8, the Company may, in its sole discretion, withhold and pay over to the Internal Revenue Service or any other applicable taxing authority, for the benefit of Executive, all or any portion of any Gross-Up Payment, and Executive hereby consents to such withholding.
(f) Definitions. The following terms shall have the following meanings for purposes of this Section 8.
(i) “Excise Tax” shall mean the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, together with any interest or penalties imposed with respect to such excise tax.
(ii) “Parachute Value” of a Payment shall mean the present value as of the date of the change of control for purposes of Section 280G of the Code of the portion of such Payment that constitutes a “parachute payment” under Section 280G(b)(2), as determined by the Accounting Firm for purposes of determining whether and to what extent the Excise Tax will apply to such Payment.
-25-
(iii) “Payment” shall mean any payment or distribution in the nature of compensation (within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code) to or for the benefit of Executive, whether paid or payable pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise.
(iv) “Safe Harbor Amount” means 2.99 times Executive’s “base amount,” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code.
9. Successors. (a) This Agreement is personal to the Executive and without the prior written consent of the Company shall not be assignable by the Executive other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Executive’s legal representatives. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Company and its successors and assigns. For the avoidance of doubt, Motorola may unilaterally assign this Agreement to MDB Public or MDB Other. In the event that Motorola assigns this Agreement to MDB Public or MDB Other, Motorola shall become a third party beneficiary of this Agreement with respect to the enforcement of Executive’s obligations to Motorola under the Agreement pursuant to Section 7 of the Agreement.
(b) The Company shall cause any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all or a substantial portion of the MDB business and/or assets to assume expressly in writing (and deliver a copy to the Executive) and agree to perform this Agreement immediately upon such succession in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place.
10. Miscellaneous. (a) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Illinois, without reference to principles of conflict of laws. The Parties hereto irrevocably agree to submit to the jurisdiction and venue of the courts of the State of Illinois, in any action or proceeding brought with respect to or in connection with this Agreement. The captions of this Agreement are not part of the provisions hereof and shall have no force or effect. This Agreement may not be amended or modified otherwise than by a written agreement executed by the Parties hereto or their respective successors and legal representatives.
(b) All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be given by hand delivery to the other Party or by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed as follows:
If to the Executive:
At the most recent address on file for the Executive at the Company.

Attention: General Counsel
or to such other address as either Party shall have furnished to the other in
writing in accordance herewith. Notice and communications shall be effective
when actually received by the addressee.
-26-
(c) The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement.
(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company may withhold from any amounts payable or benefits provided under this Agreement any Federal, state, and local taxes as shall be required to be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or regulation.
(e) Subject to the provisions of Section 4(c), the Executive’s or the Company’s failure to insist upon strict compliance with any provision of this Agreement or the failure to assert any right the Executive or the Company may have hereunder, shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such provision or right or any other provision or right of this Agreement.
(f) From and after the Effective Date, this Agreement shall supersede any other employment agreement or understanding between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.
(g) Nothing in this Agreement or any Motorola Policy shall prevent Executive from retaining and exercising the stock options with respect to shares of common stock of Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxxxx that Executive holds on the date of this Agreement or from holding the shares of Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxxxx common stock that Executive receives upon exercise of such stock options, subject in all events to the 3% limit set forth in Section 7(c)(iii) of this Agreement
11. Director’s and Officer’s Insurance. The Company shall provide the Executive with reasonable Director’s and Officer’s insurance coverage that is at least as favorable as the coverage provided to other directors and officers of the Company on the date of this Agreement or at any time thereafter. Such insurance coverage shall continue in effect both during the Employment Period and, while potential liability exists, thereafter (it being understood for the avoidance of doubt that Motorola shall maintain such coverage following the Motorola Service Period if and to the extent liability exists following the Motorola Service Period).
12. Indemnification. The Company shall indemnify the Executive and hold him harmless to the fullest extent permitted by law and under the charter and by-laws of the Company (including the advancement of expenses) against, and with respect to, any and all actions, suits, proceedings, claims, demands, judgments, costs, expenses (including reasonable attorney fees), losses and damages resulting from the Executive’s good faith performance of his duties and obligations with the Company. This Section 12 shall survive any termination of employment and shall apply with respect to each of Motorola, MDB Public and MDB Other, if and to the extent that Executive is employed by any such entity at any time.
13. Representations. The Executive hereby represents and warrants to the Company that the Executive is not party to any contract, understanding, agreement or policy, whether or not written, with his current employer (or any other previous employer) or otherwise, that would be breached by the Executive’s entering into, or performing services under, this Agreement; provided that the Company hereby acknowledges that it is aware of Executive’s obligations under Executive’s Employee Agreement with Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxxxx, dated June 13, 1994 and the obligations under the draft Letter Agreement expected to be entered into by Executive and Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxxxx promptly following the execution of this Agreement, in the form provided to Motorola immediately prior to the
-27-
execution of this Agreement, and that Executive may also have statutory or common law confidentiality obligations with regard to Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxxxx. The Executive further represents that he has disclosed to the Company in writing all material threatened, pending, or actual claims that are unresolved and still outstanding as of the Effective Date, in each case, against the Executive of which he is aware, if any, as a result of his employment with his current employer (or any other previous employer) or his membership on any boards of directors. In the event of a breach of this Section 13 that prevents Executive from satisfying the requirements of Section 3(a), any amounts or awards due to Executive under this Agreement immediately shall be terminated and forfeited by Executive and Executive immediately shall repay to the Company any amounts previously paid to Executive under this Agreement.
14. Section 409A.
(a) The intent of the Parties is that payments and benefits under this Agreement comply with Section 409A or are exempt therefrom and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement shall be interpreted to be in compliance therewith. If the Executive notifies the Company (with specificity as to the reason therefor) that the Executive believes that any provision of this Agreement (or of any award of compensation, including equity compensation or benefits) would cause the Executive to incur any additional tax or interest under Section 409A and the Company concurs with such belief or the Company (without any obligation whatsoever to do so) independently makes such determination, the Company shall, after consulting with the Executive, reform such provision in a manner that is economically neutral to the Company to attempt to comply with Section 409A through good faith modifications to the minimum extent reasonably appropriate to conform with Section 409A.
(b) A termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the payment of any amounts or benefits (including Company equity awards) subject to Section 409A upon or following a termination of employment unless such termination is also a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A and Executive is no longer providing services (at a level that would preclude the occurrence of a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A) to any of Motorola, MDB Public or MDB Other as an employee or consultant, and for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement, references to a “termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A. If the Executive is deemed on the Date of Termination to be a Specified Employee, then with regard to any payment or the provision of any benefit that is considered deferred compensation under Section 409A payable on account of a “separation from service,” such payment or benefit shall be made or provided on the Delayed Payment Date.
(c) With regard to any provision herein that provides for reimbursement of costs and expenses or in-kind benefits, except as permitted by Section 409A, (i) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit, (ii) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits, provided during any taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other taxable year, provided that the foregoing clause (ii) shall not be violated with regard to expenses reimbursed under any arrangement covered by Internal Revenue Code Section 105(b) solely because such expenses are subject to a limit related to the period the arrangement is in effect and (iii) such payments shall be made on or before the last day of Executive’s taxable year following the taxable year in which the expense occurred.
-28-
(d) Whenever a payment under this Agreement specifies a payment period with reference to a number of days (e.g., “payment shall be made within thirty (30) days following the date of termination”), the actual date of payment within the specified period shall be within the sole discretion of the Company.
(e) For purposes of Section 409A, the Executive’s right to receive any “installment” payments pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments.

EXHIBIT A
RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT (“Agreement”)
This Restricted Stock Unit Award (“Award”) is awarded on [ ], 2008 (“Dateof Grant”), by Motorola, Inc. (the “ Company ” or “ Motorola ”) to [ ] (the “ Grantee ”).
WHEREAS, Grantee is receiving the Award[under the Motorola Omnibus Incentive Plan of 2006, as amended (the “ 2006 Incentive Plan ” or the “ Plan ”) ] ;
WHEREAS, Grantee is the Chief Executive Officer of the mobile devices business of Motorola;
WHEREAS, Grantee and Motorola entered into an employment agreement (the “Employment Agreement”), dated as of the [ ] day of [ ] 2008;
WHEREAS, the Award is a grant of Motorola restricted stock units authorized by the Board of Directors and the Board’s Compensation and Leadership Committee (the “ Compensation Committee ”); and
WHEREAS, it is a condition to Grantee receiving the Award that Grantee electronically accept the terms, conditions and Restrictions applicable to the restricted stock units as set forth in this agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the Company hereby awards restricted stock units to Grantee on the following terms and conditions:
1. | Award of Restricted Stock Units. The Company hereby grants to Grantee a total of [ ] Motorola restricted stock units (the “ Units ”) subject to the terms and conditions set forth below. All Awards shall be paid in whole shares of Motorola Common Stock (“ Common Stock ”); no fractional shares shall be credited or delivered to Grantee. For purposes of this Award, “Units” will include any rights into which the Units may be converted (including cash accounts). |
2. | Restrictions. The Units are being awarded to Grantee subject to the transfer and forfeiture conditions set forth below (the “ Restrictions ”) which shall lapse, if at all, as described in Section 3 below. For purposes of this Award, the term Units includes any additional Units granted to the Grantee with respect to Units, still subject to the Restrictions. |
a. | Grantee may not directly or indirectly, by operation of law or otherwise, voluntarily or involuntarily, sell, assign, pledge, encumber, charge or otherwise transfer any of the Units still subject to Restrictions. The Units shall be forfeited if Grantee violates or attempts to violate these transfer Restrictions. Motorola shall have the right to assign this Agreement, which shall not affect the validity or enforceability of this Agreement, subject to the limitations on assignment contained in the Employment Agreement. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of assigns and successors of Motorola’s mobile devices business and references to Motorola or the Company shall include any such assigns and successors. For the avoidance of doubt, Motorola may unilaterally assign this Agreement to MDB Public (as defined in the Employment Agreement) or MDB Other (as defined in the Employment Agreement). |
b. | Any Units still subject to the Restrictions shall be automatically forfeited upon Grantee’s termination of employment pursuant to Section 5(c) of the Employment Agreement. |
c. | Sections 7(a), (b) and (c) (together, the “Restrictive Covenants”) of the Employment Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference into this Award and shall apply as if fully set forth herein mutatis mutandis and any capitalized terms used in such Sections 7(a), (b) and (c) shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Employment Agreement. [ If Grantee breaches the Restrictive Covenants, in addition to all remedies in law and/or equity available to the Company or any Subsidiary, Grantee shall forfeit all Units under the Award whose Restrictions have not lapsed, and, for all restricted stock units under the Award whose Restrictions have lapsed, Grantee shall immediately pay to the Company the Fair Market Value (as defined in paragraph 7 below) of Motorola Common Stock (“ Common Stock ”) on the date(s) such Restrictions lapsed, without regard to any taxes that may have been deducted from such amount. ] [Note: Bracketed text not included in make-whole or inducement award documents.] |
d. | [The Units are subject to the terms and conditions of the Company’s Policy Regarding Recoupment of Incentive Payments upon Financial Restatement, as such policy is in effect on the Date of Grant (such policy, being the “ Recoupment Policy ”). The Recoupment Policy provides for determinations by the Company’s independent directors that, as a result of intentional misconduct by Grantee, the Company’s financial results were restated (a “ Policy Restatement ”). In the event of a Policy Restatement, the Company’s independent directors may require, among other things (a) cancellation of any of the Units that remain outstanding; and/or (b) reimbursement of any gains in respect of the Units, if and to the extent the conditions set forth in the Recoupment Policy apply. Any determinations made by the independent directors in accordance with the Recoupment Policy shall be binding upon Grantee. The Recoupment Policy is in addition to any other remedies which may be otherwise available at law, in equity or under contract, to the Company. ] [Note: Bracketed text not included in make-whole award documents; Recoupment Policy shall not apply to make-whole awards.] |
The Company will not be obligated to pay Grantee any consideration whatsoever for forfeited Units.
3. | Lapse of Restrictions. |
a. | The Restrictions applicable to the Units shall lapse, as long as the Units have not been forfeited as described in Section 2 above, as follows: |
(i) |
Vesting Percentage |
Date | ||||
|
||||||
|
A-2
For purposes of this Agreement, the “Restriction Period” applicable to a Unit shall refer to the period of time beginning on the Date of Grant and ending on the date that the Restrictions applicable to such Unit shall lapse, as set forth in the table above.
(ii) In addition, the Restrictions applicable to the Units shall lapse in accordance with the terms of Section 5 of the Employment Agreement if and to the extent applicable provisions under Section 5 of the Employment Agreement are triggered.
b. | If, during the Restriction Period, the Grantee takes a Leave of Absence from Motorola or a Subsidiary, the Units will continue to be subject to this Agreement. If the Restriction Period expires while the Grantee is on a Leave of Absence the Grantee will be entitled to the Units even if the Grantee has not returned to active employment. “Leave of Absence” means an approved leave of absence from Motorola or a Subsidiary that is not a termination of employment, as determined by Motorola. |
c. | To the extent the Restrictions lapse under this Section 3 with respect to the Units, they will be free of the terms and conditions of this Award (other than 2(c)). |

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

By accepting this award, Grantee voluntarily acknowledges and consents to the collection, use, processing and transfer of personal data as described in this paragraph.

STOCK OPTION CONSIDERATION AGREEMENT
GRANT DATE: [ ]
The following Agreement is established to protect the trade secrets, intellectual property, confidential information, customer relationships and goodwill of Motorola, Inc. (“Motorola” or the “Company”) and each of its subsidiaries (the “Company”) both as defined in the Motorola Omnibus Incentive Plan of 2006 (the “2006 Plan”). Reference is made to the employment agreement (“Employment Agreement”) by and between [ ] and Motorola, dated as of the [ ] day of [ ].
As consideration for the stock option(s) granted to me on the date shown above under the terms of the 2006 Plan (the “Covered Options”), and Motorola having provided me with Confidential Information (as defined in the Employment Agreement) as Chief Executive Officer of the mobile devices business of Motorola, I agree to the following:
1. Sections 7(a), (b) and (c) (together, the “Restrictive Covenants”) of the Employment Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference into this Agreement and shall apply as if fully set forth herein mutatis mutandis and any capitalized terms used in such Sections 7(a), (b) and (c) shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Employment Agreement. I acknowledge that my agreement to the Restrictive Covenants is a condition of the grant of the Covered Options.
[2. I acknowledge that the Covered Options are subject to the terms and conditions of the Company’s Policy Regarding Recoupment of Incentive Payments upon Financial Restatement, as such policy is in effect on the grant date set forth above (such policy, as it may be amended from time to time, being the “Recoupment Policy”). The Recoupment Policy provides for determinations by the Company’s independent directors that, as a result of intentional misconduct by me, the Company’s financial results were restated (a “Policy Restatement”). In the event of a Policy Restatement, the Company’s independent directors may require, among other things (a) cancellation of any of the Covered Options that remain outstanding; and/or (b) reimbursement of any gains realized in respect of the Covered Options, if and to the extent the conditions set forth in the Recoupment Policy apply. Any determinations made by the independent directors in accordance with the Recoupment Policy shall be binding upon me. The Recoupment Policy is in addition to any other remedies which may be otherwise available at law, in equity or under contract, to the Company. ] [Note: Bracketed text not included in make-whole award document; Recoupment Policy shall not apply to make-whole awards.]
[3. I agree that by accepting the Covered Options, if I violate the Restrictive Covenants, then, in addition to any other remedies available in law and/or equity in any country, all of my vested and unvested Covered Options will terminate and no longer be exercisable, and for all Covered Options exercised within one year prior to the termination of my employment for any reason or anytime after termination of my employment for any reason, I will immediately pay to the Company the difference between the exercise price on the date of grant as reflected in the Award Document for the Covered Options and the market price of the Covered Options on the date of exercise (the “spread”).][Note: Bracketed text not included in make-whole/inducement award document.]
4. The Restrictive Covenants can be waived or modified only upon the prior written consent of Motorola, Inc. (or, following a Separation Event (as defined in the Employment Agreement) or Other Transaction Event (as defined in the Employment Agreement), MDB Public (as defined in the Employment Agreement) or MDB Other (as defined in the Employment Agreement), as applicable).
5. I acknowledge that the promises in this Agreement, not any employment of or services performed by me in the course and scope of that employment, are the sole consideration for the Covered Options. I agree the Company shall have the right to assign this Agreement which shall not affect the validity or enforceability of this Agreement, subject to the limitations on assignment contained in the Employment Agreement. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the assigns and successors of the Company’s mobile devices business and that references to Motorola or the Company shall include any such assigns and successors. For the avoidance of doubt, Motorola may unilaterally assign this Agreement to MDB Public (as defined in the Employment Agreement) or MDB Other (as defined in the Employment Agreement).
6. I acknowledge that the harm caused to the Company by the breach or anticipated breach of the Restrictive Covenants will be irreparable and I agree the Company may obtain injunctive relief against me 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 me and the Company for the protection of the Company’s Confidential Information (as defined in the Employment Agreement), or law, including the recovery of liquidated damages. I agree that any interim or final equitable relief entered by a court of competent jurisdiction, as specified in paragraph 10 below, will, at the request of the Company, be entered on consent and enforced by any such court having jurisdiction over me. 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.
7. With respect to the Covered Options, this Agreement (and any provisions of the Employment Agreement incorporated into this Agreement) is my 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 paragraph 9 below to be unenforceable, in whole or in part, the remainder of this Agreement shall nevertheless be enforceable and binding on the parties. I also agree 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, I affirmatively state that I have not, will not and cannot rely on any representations not expressly made herein.
8. I accept the terms of this Agreement and the above option(s) to purchase shares of the Common Stock of the Company, subject to the terms of this Agreement, the 2006 Plan, and any Award Document issued pursuant thereto. I am familiar with the 2006 Plan and agree to be bound by it to the extent applicable, as well as by the actions of the Company’s Board of Directors or any committee thereof.
9. I agree that this Agreement (and any provisions of the Employment Agreement incorporated into this Agreement) and the 2006 Plan, and any Award Document issued pursuant thereto, together constitute an agreement between the Company and me. I
C-2
further agree that this Agreement is governed by the laws of Illinois, without giving effect to any state’s principles of Conflicts of Laws, and any legal action related to this Agreement shall be brought only in a federal or state court located in Illinois, USA. I accept the jurisdiction of these courts and consent to service of process from said courts solely for legal actions related to this Agreement and the Covered Options.
