EXHIBIT A
TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT GRANT
Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Exhibit A shall have the same meanings assigned to them in the Plan and/or the Notice of Grant.
1. Grant. The Company hereby grants to the individual named in the Notice of Grant (“Participant”) an Award of Restricted Stock Units, subject to all of the terms and conditions of the Plan, which is incorporated herein by reference, and the terms and conditions of the Award Agreement, which includes the Notice of Grant, the Restricted Stock Unit Terms, the Appendix, and any other exhibits attached hereto. Subject to Section 19(c) of the Plan, in the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of the Plan and the terms and conditions of the Award Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Plan will prevail.
2. Company’s Obligation to Pay. Each Restricted Stock Unit represents the right to receive one Share on the date it vests. Unless and until these Restricted Stock Units vest in the manner set forth in Section 3 or 4, Participant will have no right to payment of any such Shares. Prior to actual payment of Shares for any vested Restricted Stock Units, such Restricted Stock Units will represent an unsecured obligation of the Company, payable (if at all) only from the general assets of the Company. Any of these Restricted Stock Units that vest in accordance with Section 3 or 4 will be paid to Participant (or, in the event of Participant’s death, will be distributed as described in Section 6) in whole Shares, subject to Participant satisfying any Tax Obligations. Subject to the provisions of Section 4, such vested Restricted Stock Units shall be paid in whole Shares as soon as practicable after vesting, but in each such case within sixty (60) days following the vesting date. In no event will Participant be permitted, directly or indirectly, to specify the taxable year of the payment of any Restricted Stock Units payable under the Award Agreement.
3. Vesting Schedule. Except as provided in Section 4, and subject to Section 5, the Restricted Stock Units awarded by the Award Agreement will vest in accordance with the vesting provisions set forth in the Notice of Grant. Restricted Stock Units scheduled to vest on a certain date or upon the occurrence of a certain condition will not vest in accordance with any of the provisions of the Award Agreement, unless Participant will have been continuously a Service Provider from the Date of Grant until the date such vesting occurs.
For purposes of these Restricted Stock Units, Participant’s status as a Service Provider will be considered terminated as of the date that Participant is no longer actively providing services to the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company (regardless of the reason for such termination and whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction where Participant is employed or providing services, or the terms of Participant’s employment or service agreement, if any), and unless otherwise provided in the Award Agreement (for example, as set forth in the Notice of Grant) or determined by the Administrator, Participant’s right to vest in these Restricted Stock Units under the Plan, if any, will terminate as of such date and will not be extended by any notice period (e.g., Participant’s period of service would not include any contractual notice period or any period of “garden leave” or similar period mandated under employment laws in the jurisdiction where Participant is
-3-
employed or providing services, or the terms of Participant’s employment or service agreement, if any). The Administrator shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when Participant is no longer actively providing services for purposes of these Restricted Stock Units (including whether Participant may still be considered to be providing services while on a leave of absence).
4. Administrator Discretion. The Administrator, in its discretion, may accelerate the vesting of the balance, or some lesser portion of the balance, of the unvested Restricted Stock Units at any time, subject to the terms of the Plan. If so accelerated, such Restricted Stock Units will be considered as having vested as of the date specified by the Administrator. If Participant is a United States (“U.S.”) taxpayer, the payment of Shares vesting pursuant to this Section 4 shall in all cases be paid at a time or in a manner that is exempt from, or complies with, Section 409A. The prior sentence may be superseded in a future agreement or amendment to the Award Agreement only by direct and specific reference to such sentence.
Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or the Award Agreement or any other agreement (whether entered into before, on or after the Date of Grant) to the contrary, if the vesting of the balance, or some lesser portion of the balance, of these Restricted Stock Units is accelerated in connection with Participant’s termination as a Service Provider (provided that such termination is a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A, as determined by the Company), other than due to Participant’s death, and if (x) Participant is a U.S. taxpayer and a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A at the time of such termination as a Service Provider and (y) the payment of such accelerated Restricted Stock Units will result in the imposition of additional tax under Section 409A if paid to Participant on or within the six (6) month period following Participant’s termination as a Service Provider, then the payment of such accelerated Restricted Stock Units will not be made until the date six (6) months and one (1) day following the date of Participant’s termination as a Service Provider, unless Participant dies following his or her termination as a Service Provider, in which case, the Restricted Stock Units will be paid out as described in Section 6 as soon as practicable following his or her death. It is the intent of the Award Agreement that it and all payments and benefits to U.S. taxpayers hereunder be exempt from, or comply with, the requirements of Section 409A so that none of the Restricted Stock Units provided under the Award Agreement or Shares issuable thereunder will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities herein will be interpreted to be so exempt or so comply. Each payment payable under the Award Agreement is intended to constitute a separate payment for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2).
5. Forfeiture upon Termination of Status as a Service Provider. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of the Award Agreement, the balance of these Restricted Stock Units that have not vested as of the time of Participant’s termination as a Service Provider, for any or no reason, will be immediately forfeited, and Participant’s right to acquire any Shares hereunder will immediately terminate.
6. Death of Participant. Any distribution or delivery to be made to Participant under the Award Agreement will, if Participant is then deceased, be made to Participant’s designated beneficiary, or if no beneficiary survives Participant, the administrator or executor of Participant’s estate. Any such transferee must furnish the Company with (a) written notice of his or her status as transferee, and (b) evidence satisfactory to the Company to establish the validity of the transfer and compliance with any laws or regulations pertaining to said transfer.
-4-
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Participant is a Service Provider outside the United States, Participant will not be permitted to designate a beneficiary, and in the event of Participant’s death, any distribution or delivery to be made to Participant under the Award Agreement will be made to Participant’s legal heirs or representatives.
7. Taxes.
(a) Responsibility for Taxes. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of the Award Agreement, no certificate representing the Shares will be issued to Participant unless and until satisfactory arrangements (as determined by the Administrator) will have been made by Participant with respect to the payment of Tax Obligations which the Company or, if different, the Parent or Subsidiary employing or retaining Participant (the “Employer”) determines must be withheld with respect to these Restricted Stock Units or any Shares issued upon vesting. In this regard, Participant acknowledges and agrees that:
(i) Participant is ultimately responsible for all Tax Obligations and Participant’s liability for Tax Obligations may exceed the amount withheld by the Company and/or the Employer, if any;
(ii) the Company and/or the Employer make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax Obligations in connection with any aspect of these Restricted Stock Units, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting or settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units and the receipt of any dividends;
(iii) the Company and/or the Employer do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of these Restricted Stock Units to reduce or eliminate Participant’s liability for Tax Obligations or achieve any particular tax result;
(iv) the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax Obligations in more than one jurisdiction if Participant is subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction; and
(v) if Participant fails to make satisfactory arrangements for the payment of any Tax Obligations at the time any applicable Restricted Stock Units otherwise are scheduled to vest pursuant to Section 3 or 4 or at the time any Tax Obligations related to Restricted Stock Units otherwise are due, Participant will permanently forfeit such Restricted Stock Units and any right to receive Shares thereunder and the Restricted Stock Units will be returned to the Company at no cost to the Company.
(b) Withholding of Taxes. Prior to any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, Participant will pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all withholding and payment obligations of Tax Obligations of the Company and/or the Employer. In this regard, Participant authorizes the Company and/or the Employer, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy the obligations with regard to all Tax Obligations by one or more of the following methods:
(i) withholding from Participant’s wages or other cash compensation paid to Participant by the Company and/or the Employer;
-5-
(ii) withholding from proceeds of the sale of Shares acquired upon vesting of these Restricted Stock Units, either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on Participant’s behalf pursuant to this authorization) without further consent from Participant; and/or
(iii) by withholding Shares otherwise issuable upon vesting of these Restricted Stock Units with a Fair Market Value (as defined in the Plan unless otherwise determined by the Administrator) equal to the applicable amount of any Tax Obligations required to be withheld.
Alternatively, or in addition to the withholding methods above, if permissible under Applicable Laws, the Administrator, in its sole discretion and pursuant to such procedures as it may specify from time to time, may permit or require Participant to satisfy his or her obligations for Tax Obligations, in whole or in part (without limitation) by delivery of cash or check to the Company or the Employer.
Depending on the method of withholding, the Company may withhold or account for Tax Obligations by considering minimum or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum applicable rates, in which case Participant will receive a cash refund of any over-withheld amount not remitted to applicable tax authorities on Participant’s behalf and Participant will have no entitlement to receive the equivalent amount in Shares. If the obligation for Tax Obligations is satisfied by withholding in Shares, for tax purposes, Participant is deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject to the vested Restricted Stock Units, notwithstanding that a number of the Shares are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax Obligations.
8. Rights as Stockholder. Neither Participant nor any person claiming under or through Participant will have any of the rights or privileges of a stockholder of the Company in respect of any Shares deliverable hereunder unless and until certificates representing such Shares (which may be in book entry form) will have been issued, recorded on the records of the Company or its transfer agents or registrars, and delivered to Participant (including through electronic delivery to a brokerage account). After such issuance, recordation and delivery, Participant will have all the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to voting such Shares and receipt of dividends and distributions on such Shares.
9. No Guarantee of Continued Service. PARTICIPANT ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE VESTING OF THESE RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS PURSUANT TO THE VESTING SCHEDULE HEREOF IS EARNED ONLY BY CONTINUING AS A SERVICE PROVIDER OF THE COMPANY OR A PARENT OR SUBSIDIARY OF THE COMPANY AND NOT THROUGH THE ACT OF BEING HIRED, BEING GRANTED THESE RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS OR ACQUIRING SHARES HEREUNDER. PARTICIPANT FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE AWARD AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER AND THE VESTING SCHEDULE SET FORTH HEREIN DO NOT CONSTITUTE AN EXPRESS OR IMPLIED PROMISE OF CONTINUED ENGAGEMENT AS A SERVICE PROVIDER FOR
-6-
THE VESTING PERIOD, FOR ANY PERIOD, OR AT ALL AND WILL NOT INTERFERE IN ANY WAY WITH PARTICIPANT’S RIGHT OR THE RIGHT OF THE COMPANY (OR ANY PARENT OR SUBSIDIARY OF THE COMPANY EMPLOYING OR RETAINING PARTICIPANT) TO TERMINATE PARTICIPANT’S RELATIONSHIP AS A SERVICE PROVIDER AT ANY TIME, WITH OR WITHOUT CAUSE.
10. Nature of Grant. In accepting the grant of these Restricted Stock Units, Participant acknowledges, understands and agrees that:
(a) the grant of these Restricted Stock Units is exceptional, voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of Restricted Stock Units, or benefits in lieu of Restricted Stock Units, even if Restricted Stock Units have been granted in the past;
(b) all decisions with respect to future grants of Restricted Stock Units or other grants, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company;
(c) Participant is voluntarily participating in the Plan;
(d) these Restricted Stock Units and the Shares subject to the Restricted Stock Units, and the income and value of the same, are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation;
(e) these Restricted Stock Units and the Shares subject to the Restricted Stock Units, and the income and value of the same, are not part of normal or expected compensation for purposes of calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, end-of-service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement benefits or payments or welfare benefits or similar payments;
(f) the future value of the underlying Shares is unknown, indeterminable and cannot be predicted with certainty;
(g) unless otherwise agreed with the Company, these Restricted Stock Units and any Shares acquired under the Plan, and the income and value of the same, are not granted as consideration for, or in connection with, the service Participant may provide as a director of a Subsidiary;
(h) unless otherwise provided in the Plan or by the Company in its discretion, these Restricted Stock Units and the benefits evidenced by the Award Agreement do not create any entitlement to have the Restricted Stock Units or any such benefits transferred to, or assumed by, another company nor be exchanged, cashed out or substituted for, in connection with any corporate transaction affecting the Shares; and
(i) in addition to subsections (a) through (h) above, the following provisions will also apply if Participant is a Service Provider outside the U.S.:
(i) these Restricted Stock Units and the Shares subject to the Restricted Stock Units, and the income and value of the same, are not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purpose;
-7-
(ii) none of the Company, the Employer or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company shall be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between Participant’s local currency and the U.S. dollar that may affect the value of these Restricted Stock Units or of any amounts due to Participant pursuant to the settlement of the Restricted Stock Units or the subsequent sale of any Shares acquired upon settlement; and
(iii) no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from forfeiture of these Restricted Stock Units resulting from the termination of Participant’s status as a Service Provider (for any reason whatsoever whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction where Participant is a Service Provider, or the terms of Participant’s employment or service agreement, if any), and in consideration of the grant of these Restricted Stock Units to which Participant is otherwise not entitled, Participant irrevocably agrees never to institute any claim against the Company, the Employer, or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company, waives his or her ability, if any, to bring any such claim, and releases the Company, the Employer, and any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company from any such claim; if, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is allowed by a court of competent jurisdiction, then, by participating in the Plan, 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 claim.
11. No Advice Regarding Grant. The Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding Participant’s participation in the Plan, or Participant’s acquisition or sale of the underlying Shares. Participant should consult with his or her own personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding the U.S. federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences of this investment and the transactions contemplated by the Award Agreement and all other aspects of Participant’s participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan.
12. Data Privacy. Participant hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of Participant’s personal data as described in the Award Agreement and any other grant materials related to these Restricted Stock Units (“Data”) by and among, as applicable, the Employer, the Company and any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing Participant’s participation in the Plan.
Participant understands that Data may include certain personal information about Participant, including, but not limited to, Participant’s name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any Shares or directorships held in the Company, details of all Restricted Stock Units or any other entitlement to Shares awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in Participant’s favor, for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing Participant’s participation in the Plan.
-8-
Participant understands that Data will be transferred to Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx & Co., Inc., or such other stock plan service provider as may be selected by the Company in the future (the “Designated Broker”) or a designated payroll provider as may be selected by the Company in the future (the “Designated Payroll Provider”), all of which are assisting the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. Participant understands that the recipients of Data may be located in the U.S. or elsewhere, and that a recipient’s country of operation (e.g., the U.S.) may have different data privacy laws and protections than Participant’s country. Participant understands that if he or she resides outside the U.S., he or she may request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Data by contacting his or her local human resources representative. Participant authorizes the Company, the Designated Broker, the Designated Payroll Provider and any other possible recipients which may assist the Company (presently or in the future) with implementing, administering and managing the Plan to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the sole purposes of implementing, administering and managing Participant’s participation in the Plan. Participant understands that Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage Participant’s participation in the Plan. Participant understands that if he or she resides outside the U.S., he or she may, at any time, view Data, request information about the storage and processing of Data, require any necessary amendments to Data or refuse or withdraw the consents herein, in any case without cost, by contacting in writing his or her local human resources representative. Further, Participant understands that he or she is providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis. If Participant does not consent, or if Participant later seeks to revoke his or her consent, his or her status as a Service Provider and career with the Employer will not be affected; the only consequence of refusing or withdrawing Participant’s consent is that the Company would not be able to grant Participant Restricted Stock Units or other equity awards or administer or maintain such awards. Therefore, Participant understands that refusing or withdrawing his or her consent may affect his or her ability to participate in the Plan. For more information on the consequences of his or her refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, Participant understands that he or she may contact his or her local human resources representative.
13. Address for Notices. Any notice to be given to the Company under the terms of the Award Agreement will be addressed to the Company at Apptio, Inc., 00000 XX 0xx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxxxxxxx, XX 00000, Attention: General Counsel or at such other address as the Company may hereafter designate in writing.
14. Non-transferability of Restricted Stock Units. Except to the limited extent provided in Section 6, these Restricted Stock Units and the rights and privileges conferred hereby will not be transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated in any way (whether by operation of law or otherwise) and will not be subject to sale under execution, attachment or similar process. Upon any attempt to transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of these Restricted Stock Units, or any right or privilege conferred hereby, or upon any attempted sale under any execution, attachment or similar process, these Restricted Stock Units and the rights and privileges conferred hereby immediately will become null and void.
15. Successors and Assigns. The Company may assign any of its rights under the Award Agreement to single or multiple assignees, and the Award Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Company. Subject to the restrictions on transfer
-9-
herein set forth, the Award Agreement shall be binding upon Participant and his or her heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns. The rights and obligations of Participant under the Award Agreement may only be assigned with the prior written consent of the Company.
16. Binding Agreement. Subject to the limitation on the transferability of this grant contained herein, the Award Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the heirs, legatees, legal representatives, successors and assigns of the parties hereto.
17. Additional Conditions to Issuance of Shares. If at any time the Company will determine, in its discretion, that the listing, registration, qualification or rule compliance of the Shares upon any securities exchange or under any U.S. federal, state, local or foreign law, the tax code and related regulations or under the rulings or regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) or any other governmental regulatory body or the clearance, consent or approval of the SEC or any other governmental regulatory authority is necessary or desirable as a condition to the issuance of Shares to Participant (or his or her estate) hereunder, such issuance will not occur unless and until such listing, registration, qualification, rule compliance, clearance, consent or approval will have been completed, effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Company. Where the Company determines that the delivery of any Shares will violate federal securities laws or other Applicable Laws, the Company will defer delivery until the earliest date at which the Company reasonably anticipates that the delivery of Shares will no longer cause such violation. The Company will make all reasonable efforts to meet the requirements of any such Applicable Laws or securities exchange and to obtain any such consent or approval of any such governmental authority or securities exchange.
18. Plan Governs. The Award Agreement is subject to all terms and provisions of the Plan. In the event of a conflict between one or more provisions of the Award Agreement and one or more provisions of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan will govern.
19. Interpretation. The Administrator will have the power to interpret the Plan and the Award Agreement and to adopt such rules for the administration, interpretation and application of the Plan as are consistent therewith and to interpret or revoke any such rules (including, but not limited to, the determination of whether or not any Restricted Stock Units have vested). All actions taken and all interpretations and determinations made by the Administrator in good faith will be final and binding upon Participant, the Company and all other interested persons. No member of the Administrator will be personally liable for any action, determination or interpretation made in good faith with respect to the Plan or the Award Agreement.
20. Electronic Delivery and Acceptance. The Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related to these Restricted Stock Units or future Awards that may be granted under the Plan by electronic means. Participant hereby consents to receive such documents by electronic delivery and agrees to participate in the Plan through any on-line or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or third party designated by the Company.
-10-
21. Agreement Severable. In the event that any provision in the Award Agreement will be held invalid or unenforceable, such provision will be severable from, and such invalidity or unenforceability will not be construed to have any effect on, the remaining provisions of the Award Agreement.
22. Modifications to the Award Agreement. The Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, it is discretionary in nature, and the Company, in its discretion, may elect to terminate, suspend or modify the terms of the Plan at any time, to the extent permitted by the Plan. Participant agrees to be bound by such termination, suspension or modification regardless of whether notice is given to Participant of such event. The Company reserves the right to revise the Award Agreement as it deems necessary or advisable, in its sole discretion and without the consent of Participant, to comply with Section 409A or to otherwise avoid imposition of any additional tax or income recognition under Section 409A in connection with this Award of Restricted Stock Units. Further, the Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on Participant’s participation in the Plan, on these Restricted Stock Units and on any Shares acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons, and to require Participant to execute any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing. Other modifications to the Award Agreement or the Plan can be made only in an express written contract executed by Participant and a duly authorized officer of the Company.
23. Waiver. Participant acknowledges that a waiver by the Company of breach of any provision of the Award Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other provision of the Award Agreement, or of any subsequent breach by Participant or any other Participant.
24. Governing Law and Venue. The Award Agreement will be governed by the laws of Washington, without giving effect to the conflict of law principles thereof. For purposes of litigating any dispute that arises under the Award Agreement, the parties hereby submit to and consent to the jurisdiction of the State of Washington, and agree that such litigation will be conducted in the courts of King County, Washington, or the federal courts for the United States for the Western District of Washington, and no other courts, where this Restricted Stock Unit Award is made and/or to be performed.
25. Language. If Participant has received the Award Agreement or any other document related to these Restricted Stock Units or the Plan translated into a language other than English and if the meaning of the translated version is different than the English version, the English version will control.
26. Captions. Captions provided herein are for convenience only and are not to serve as a basis for interpretation or construction of the Award Agreement.
27. Appendix. Notwithstanding any provision of the Notice of Grant or the Restricted Stock Unit Terms, these Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to any additional terms and conditions for Participant’s country set forth in the Appendix. Moreover, if Participant relocates to one of the countries included in the Appendix, the terms and conditions for such country will apply to Participant to the extent the Company determines that the application of such terms and conditions to Participant is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons. The Appendix constitutes part of the Award Agreement.
-11-
28. Insider-Trading/Market-Abuse Laws. Participant acknowledges that, depending on Participant’s country, Participant may be subject to insider-trading restrictions and/or market-abuse laws, which may affect Participant’s ability to purchase or sell Shares under the Plan during such times as Participant is considered to have “inside information” regarding the Company (as defined by the laws in Participant’s country). Any restrictions under these laws or regulations are separate from and in addition to any restrictions that may be imposed under any applicable Company insider-trading policy. Participant is responsible for complying with any applicable restrictions, so Participant is advised to speak to Participant’s personal legal advisor for further details regarding any applicable insider-trading and/or market-abuse laws in Participant’s country.
29. Foreign Asset/Account Reporting Requirements and Exchange Controls. Participant acknowledges that Participant’s country may have certain foreign asset and/or foreign account reporting requirements and exchange controls which may affect Participant’s ability to acquire or hold Shares acquired under the Plan or cash received from participating in the Plan (including from any dividends paid on Shares acquired under the Plan) in a brokerage or bank account outside Participant’s country. Participant may be required to report such accounts, assets or transactions to the tax or other authorities in Participant’s country. Participant also may be required to repatriate sale proceeds or other funds received as a result of Participant’s participation in the Plan to Participant’s country through a designated bank or broker within a certain time after receipt. Participant acknowledges that it is Participant’s responsibility to be compliant with such regulations, and Participant is advised to consult Participant’s personal legal advisor for any details.
30. Entire Agreement. The Plan is incorporated herein by reference. The Plan and the Award Agreement constitute the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede in their entirety all prior undertakings and agreements of the Company and Participant with respect to the subject matter hereof. Participant expressly warrants that he or she is not accepting the Award Agreement in reliance on any promises, representations, or inducements other than those contained herein.

EXHIBIT B
APPENDIX TO RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT
Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Appendix shall have the same meanings assigned to them in the Plan, the Notice of Grant or the Restricted Stock Unit Terms.
Terms and Conditions
This Appendix includes additional terms and conditions that govern Participant’s participation in the Plan if Participant works and/or resides in one of the countries listed below. If Participant is a citizen or resident of a country other than the one in which Participant is currently working and/or residing (or is considered as such for local law purposes), or Participant transfers employment or residence to a different country after these Restricted Stock Units are granted, the terms and conditions of the Restricted Stock Units contained herein may not be applicable to Participant, and the Company will, in its discretion, determine the extent to which the terms and conditions contained herein will apply to Participant.
Notifications
This Appendix also includes information regarding certain other issues of which Participant should be aware with respect to Participant’s participation in the Plan. The information is based on the securities, exchange control and other laws in effect in the respective countries as of [— —] 2016.1 Such laws are often complex and change frequently. As a result, the Company strongly recommends that Participant not rely on the information noted herein as the only source of information relating to the consequences of participation in the Plan because the information may be out-of-date at the time Restricted Stock Units vest or Participant sells any Shares acquired upon vesting.
In addition, the information contained herein is general in nature and may not apply to Participant’s particular situation and the Company is not in a position to assure Participant of any particular result. Accordingly, Participant is advised to seek appropriate professional advice as to how the relevant laws in Participant’s country may apply to his or her individual situation.
If Participant is a citizen or resident of a country other than the one in which Participant is currently working and/or residing (or is considered as such for local law purposes), or if Participant transfers employment or residence to a different country after these Restricted Stock Units are granted, the notifications contained in this Appendix may not be applicable to Participant in the same manner.

Exchange Control Information. If Participant holds Shares acquired under the Plan outside of Austria, Participant must submit a report to the Austrian National Bank. An exemption applies if the value of the Shares as of any given quarter does not exceed €30,000,000 or if the value of the Shares in any given year as of December 31 does not exceed €5,000,000. If the former threshold is exceeded, quarterly obligations are imposed, whereas if the latter threshold is exceeded, annual reports must be given. The deadline for filing the annual report is January 31 of the following year and the deadline for the quarterly report is the 15th of the month following the end of the respective quarter.

In accepting these Restricted Stock Units, Participant acknowledges that he or she consents to participation in the Plan and has received a copy of the Plan.
Participant understands that the Company has unilaterally, gratuitously, and discretionally decided to grant Restricted Stock Units under the Plan to individuals who may be Service Providers throughout the world. The decision is a limited decision that is entered into upon the express assumption and condition that any grant will not economically or otherwise bind the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company on an ongoing basis. Consequently, Participant understands that these Restricted Stock Units are granted on the assumption and condition that these Restricted Stock Units or the Shares acquired upon vesting shall not become a part of any employment or service contract (either with the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company) and shall not be considered a mandatory benefit, salary for any purposes (including severance compensation), or any other right whatsoever. In addition, Participant understands that this grant would not be made to Participant but for the assumptions and conditions referred to above; thus, Participant acknowledges and freely accepts that should any or all of the assumptions be mistaken or should any of the conditions not be met for any reason, then any grant of these Restricted Stock Units shall be null and void.
Further, the vesting of these Restricted Stock Units is expressly conditioned on Participant’s continued and active rendering of service, such that if Participant’s status as a Service Provider terminates for any reason whatsoever, these Restricted Stock Units cease vesting immediately effective on the date of Participant’s termination of status as a Service Provider. This will be the case, for example, even if (1) Participant is considered to be unfairly dismissed without good cause; (2) Participant is dismissed for disciplinary or objective reasons or due to a collective dismissal; (3) Participant terminates service due to a change of work location, duties or any other employment or contractual condition; (4) Participant terminates service due to a unilateral breach of contract by the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company; or (5) Participant’s status as a Service Provider terminates for any other reason whatsoever.
