RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT
INTERNATIONAL EMPLOYEE – 3-Year Vesting
AGREEMENT by and between KBR, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) and ________________ (“Employee”) made effective as of ____________________ (the “Grant Date”).
1. Grant of Restricted Stock Units.
(a) Units. Pursuant to the KBR, Inc. 2006 Stock and Incentive Plan, as amended and restated (the “Plan”), units evidencing the right to receive __________ shares of the Company’s common stock (“Stock”), are awarded to Employee, subject to the conditions of the Plan and this Agreement (the “Restricted Stock Units”).
(b) Plan Incorporated. Employee acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan, and agrees that this award of Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan, including future amendments thereto, if any, pursuant to the terms thereof, which is incorporated herein by reference as a part of this Agreement. Except as defined herein, capitalized terms shall have the same meanings ascribed to them under the Plan.
2. Terms of Restricted Stock Units. Employee hereby accepts the Restricted Stock Units and agrees with respect thereto as follows:
(a) Forfeiture of Restricted Stock Units. In the event of termination of Employee’s employment with the Company or any employing Subsidiary of the Company for any reason other than (i) normal retirement on or after age 70, (ii) death or (iii) disability (disability being defined as being physically or mentally incapable of performing either the Employee’s usual duties as an Employee or any other duties as an Employee that the Company or employing Subsidiary reasonably makes available and such condition is likely to remain continuously and permanently, as determined by the Company or employing Subsidiary), or except as otherwise provided in the second and third sentences of subparagraph (c) of this Paragraph 2, Employee shall, for no consideration, forfeit all Restricted Stock Units to the extent they are not fully vested. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company determines that there has been a legal judgment and/or legal development in Employee’s jurisdiction that likely would result in the favorable treatment that applies to the Restricted Stock Units under the Plan being deemed unlawful and/or discriminatory, the provision above regarding termination of employment related to normal retirement on or after age 70 shall not be applicable to Employee.
(b) Assignment of Award. The Restricted Stock Units may not be sold, assigned, pledged, exchanged, hypothecated or otherwise transferred, encumbered or disposed of unless transferable by will or the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a “qualified domestic relations order” as defined by the U.S. Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”).
(c) Vesting Schedule. The Restricted Stock Units shall vest in accordance with the following schedule provided that Employee has been continuously employed by the Company from the date of this Agreement through the applicable vesting date.
Vesting Date | Vested Percentage of Total Number of Restricted Stock Units |
1st Anniversary of Grant Date | 33 ⅓% |
2nd Anniversary of Grant Date | 66 ⅔% |
3rd Anniversary of Grant Date | 100% |
Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless otherwise provided in an Other Agreement pursuant to Paragraph 11, the Restricted Stock Units shall become fully vested on the earliest of (i) the occurrence of Employee’s Involuntary Termination or termination for Good Reason within two years following a Corporate Change (as such terms are defined in the Plan), (ii) the date Employee’s employment with the Company is terminated by reason of death or disability (as determined above), or (iii) Employee’s attainment of age 70 while employed with the Company. In the event Employee’s employment is terminated for any other reason, including retirement prior to age 70 with the approval of the Company or employing Subsidiary, the Committee which administers the Plan (the “Committee”) or its delegate, as appropriate, may, in the Committee’s or such delegate’s sole discretion, approve the acceleration of the vesting of any or all Restricted Stock Units still subject to restrictions, such vesting acceleration to be effective on the date of such approval or Employee’s termination date, if later. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Restricted Stock Units become fully vested prior to the expiration of one month from the Grant Date.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company determines that there has been a legal judgment and/or legal development in Employee’s jurisdiction that likely would result in the favorable retirement treatment that applies to the Restricted Stock Units under the Plan being deemed unlawful and/or discriminatory, Restricted Stock Units shall not become fully vested on Employee's attainment of age 70 while still employed by the Company. Instead, Restricted Stock Units shall become fully vested when Employee's employment is terminated for any reason with at least 25 years of service at the Company or employing Subsidiary (or such lesser number of years of service under special circumstances as may be determined in the Committee’s (or its delegate’s) sole discretion) subject, however, to this being considered nondiscriminatory by legal counsel and to the Committee's (or its delegate’s) sole discretion to approve such acceleration of vesting.
(d) Stockholder Rights. Employee shall have no rights of a stockholder with respect to shares of Stock subject to this Award unless and until such time as the Award has been settled by the transfer of shares of Stock to Employee.
(e) Settlement and Delivery of Shares. Payment of vested Restricted Stock Units shall be made as soon as administratively practicable after vesting, but in no event later than thirty days after the vesting date. Settlement will be made by payment in shares of Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to deliver any shares of Stock if counsel to the Company determines that such sale or delivery would violate any applicable law or any rule or regulation of any governmental authority or any rule or regulation of, or agreement of the Company with, any securities exchange or association upon which the Stock is listed or quoted.
(f) Recovery of Shares. The Company shall seek recovery of any benefits provided hereunder to Employee if such recovery is required by any clawback policy adopted by the Company, which may be amended from time to time, including, but not limited to, any clawback policy adopted to satisfy the minimum clawback requirements adopted under the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 and the regulations thereunder or any other applicable law.
3. Responsibility for Taxes. Employee acknowledges that, regardless of any action taken by the Company, or if different, Employee’s employer (“Employer”), the ultimate liability for all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to Employee’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to Employee (“Tax-Related Items”), is and remains Employee’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company and/or the Employer. Employee further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (i) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units, including but not limited to, the grant, vesting or settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, the subsequent sale of Stock acquired pursuant to such settlement and the receipt of any dividends; and (ii) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units to reduce or eliminate the Employee’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if Employee is subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction between the Grant Date and the date of any relevant taxable event, Employee acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.
Prior to any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, Employee agrees to pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, Employee authorizes the Company and/or the Employer, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy the obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following:
(a) withholding from Employee’s wages or other cash compensation paid to Employee by the Company and/or the Employer; or
(b) withholding from proceeds of the sale of shares of Stock acquired upon settlement of the Restricted Stock Units either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on Employee’s behalf pursuant to this authorization without further consent); or
(c) withholding in shares of Stock to be issued upon settlement of the Restricted Stock Units.
Depending on the withholding method, the Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding amounts or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum applicable rates, in which case Employee will receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash and will have no entitlement to the Stock equivalent. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in Stock, for tax purposes, Employee is deemed to have been issued the full number of shares of Stock subject to the vested Restricted Stock Units, notwithstanding that a number of the shares of Stock are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items.
Employee agrees to pay to the Company or the Employer, including through withholding from Employee's wages or other cash compensation paid to Employee by the Company and/or the Employer, any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for as a result of Employee’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to issue or deliver the Stock or the proceeds of the sale of Stock, if Employee fails to comply with Employee’s obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.
Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this Paragraph 3, Employee’s liability with respect to Tax-Related Items shall be subject to any international tax assignment agreement then in effect between Employee and the Company, the Employer or any of their respective affiliates or any tax policies or procedures applicable to the Employee’s home country, and in the event of any conflict between the terms of this Paragraph 3 and the terms of such international tax assignment agreement or such tax policies or procedures, the terms of such international tax assignment agreement or such tax policies or procedures, as applicable, shall control.
4. Employment Relationship. For purposes of this Agreement, Employee shall be considered to be in the employment of the Company as long as Employee remains an employee of the Company, a Parent Corporation or Subsidiary of the Company, or a corporation or a Parent Corporation or subsidiary of such corporation assuming or substituting a new award for this Award. Any question as to whether and when there has been a termination of such employment, and the cause of such termination, shall be determined by the Committee, or its delegate, as appropriate, and its determination shall be final.
5. Committee’s Powers. No provision contained in this Agreement shall in any way terminate, modify or alter, or be construed or interpreted as terminating, modifying or altering any of the powers, rights or authority vested in the Committee or, to the extent delegated, in its delegate pursuant to the terms of the Plan or resolutions adopted in furtherance of the Plan, including, without limitation, the right to make certain determinations and elections with respect to the Restricted Stock Units.
6. Data Privacy Notice and Consent. Employee hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of Employee’s personal data as described in this Agreement and any other Restricted Stock Unit grant materials by and among, as applicable, Employee’s employer, the Company, and its Subsidiaries for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing Employee’s participation in the Plan.
Employee understands that the Company and Employer may hold certain personal information about Employee, including, but not limited to, Employee’s name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any shares of Stock or directorships held in the Company, details of all Restricted Stock Units or any other entitlement to Stock awarded, canceled, vested, unvested or outstanding in Employee’s favor, for the purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Plan (“Data”). Employee understands that Data will be transferred to Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxx or such other stock plan service provider as may be selected by the Company in the future which is assisting the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. Employee understands that the recipients of the Data may be located in the United States or elsewhere, and that the recipient’s country (e.g., the United States) may have different data privacy laws and protections than Employee’s country. Employee understands that if he or she resides outside the United States, he or she may request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Data by contacting Employee’s local human resources representative. Employee authorizes the Company, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxx 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 purpose of implementing, administering and managing Employee’s participation in the Plan. Employee understands that Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage Employee’s participation in the Plan. Employee understands that if he or she resides outside the United States, he or she may, at any time, view Data, request additional 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 Employee’s local human resources representative. Further, Employee understands that he or she is providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis. If Employee does not consent, or if Employee later seeks to revoke his or her consent, Employee's employment status or service and career with the Employer will not be adversely affected; the only consequence of refusing or withdrawing Employee's consent is that the Company would not be able to grant to Employee Restricted Stock Units or other equity awards or administer or maintain such awards. Therefore, Employee understands that refusal or withdrawal of consent may affect Employee’s ability to participate in the Plan. For more information on the consequences of Employee’s refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, Employee understands that Employee may contact Employee’s local human resources representative.
7. Nature of Grant. By accepting the grant of the Restricted Stock Units, the Employee acknowledges, understands and agrees that:
(a) the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, it is discretionary in nature, and it may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time, to the extent permitted by the Plan;

(c) all decisions with respect to future Restricted Stock Units or other grants, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company;
(d) the grant of Restricted Stock Units and Employee’s participation in the Plan will not create a right to employment or be interpreted as forming an employment or service contract with the Company, the Employer or any Subsidiary of the Company and shall not interfere with the ability of the Company, the Employer or any Subsidiary of the Company, as applicable to terminate Employee’s employment or service relationship (if any);
(e) Employee’s participation in the Plan is voluntary;
(f) the Restricted Stock Units and the Stock underlying the Restricted Stock Units are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation;

(h) the future value of the Stock is unknown, indeterminable and cannot be predicted with certainty;
(i) no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from forfeiture of Restricted Stock Units resulting from Employee ceasing to provide employment or other services to the Company or the Employer (for any reason whatsoever, and whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction where Employee is employed or the terms of Employee's employment agreement, if any) and in consideration of the grant of Restricted Stock Units to which Employee is not otherwise entitled, Employee irrevocably agrees never to institute any claim against the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or the Employer;
(j) in the event of termination of Employee’s employment or other services (for any reason whatsoever, whether or not later found to be invalid, or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction where Employee is employed or the terms of Employee's employment agreement, if any), unless otherwise provided in this Agreement or determined by the Company, Employee’s right to vest in the Restricted Stock Units under the Plan, if any, will terminate effective as of the date that Employee is no longer actively providing services and will not be extended by any notice period (e.g., active services would not include any contractual notice period or any period of “garden leave” or similar period mandated under employment laws in the jurisdiction where Employee is employed or the terms of Employee's employment agreement, if any); the Committee shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when Employee is no longer actively providing services for purposes of the Award (including whether Employee may still be considered to be providing services while on an approved leave of absence);
(k) unless otherwise provided in the Plan or by the Company in its discretion, the Restricted Stock Units and the benefits evidenced by this Agreement do not create any entitlement to have the Restricted Stock Units or any such benefits transferred to, or assumed by, another company nor to be exchanged, cashed out or substituted for, in connection with any corporate transaction affecting the shares of the Company; and
(l) the following provisions apply only if Employee is providing services outside the United States: (i) the Restricted Stock Units and the shares of Stock subject to the Restricted Stock Units are not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purpose; and (ii) Employee acknowledges and agrees that neither the Company, the Employer nor any Subsidiary of the Company shall be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between Employee's local currency and the United States Dollar that may affect the value of the Restricted Stock Units or of any amounts due to Employee pursuant to the settlement of the Restricted Stock Units or the subsequent sale of any shares of Stock acquired upon settlement.
8. No Advice Regarding Grant. The Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding Employee's participation in the Plan, or Employee's acquisition or sale of the underlying shares of Stock. Employee is hereby advised to consult with his or her own personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding his or her participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan.

11. Other Agreements. The terms of this Agreement shall be subject to, and shall not modify, the terms and conditions of any employment, severance, and/or change-in-control agreement between the Company (or a Subsidiary) and Employee concerning equity-based awards (“Other Agreement”), except that the Restricted Stock Units shall become fully vested on Employee’s attainment of age 70 while employed with the Company or a Subsidiary, and notwithstanding anything in such Other Agreement to the contrary, any normal retirement age of 65 or other retirement-based vesting provisions in such Other Agreement shall be of no force or effect for purposes of the vesting of these Restricted Stock Units (except as provided in the last paragraph of Paragraph 2(c) above).

Addendum
Terms and Conditions of Restricted Stock Unit Grant
SPECIAL PROVISIONS OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS
IN CERTAIN COUNTRIES
This Addendum includes special country-specific terms that apply to residents in countries listed below. This Addendum is part of the Agreement. Unless otherwise provided below, capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the same meanings assigned to them in the Plan and the Agreement.
This Addendum also includes information regarding exchange controls and certain other issues of which Employee should be aware with respect to Employee’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 February 2014. Such laws are often complex, change frequently, certain individual exchange control reporting requirements may apply upon vesting of Restricted Stock Units and/or sale of Stock and results may be different based on the particular facts and circumstances. As a result, the Company strongly recommends that Employee does not rely on the information noted herein as the only source of information relating to the consequences of Employee’s participation in the Plan because the information may be out of date at the time Employee’s Restricted Stock Units vest or Employee sells shares of Stock acquired under the Plan.
In addition, the information is general in nature and may not apply to Employee’s particular situation, and the Company is not in a position to assure Employee of any particular result. Accordingly, Employee is advised to seek appropriate professional advice as to how the relevant laws in Employee’s country may apply to Employee’s situation.
If Employee is a citizen or resident of a country other than the country in which Employee is working, or if Employee transfers employment after the Restricted Stock Units are granted to Employee, the information contained in this Addendum for the country Employee works in at the time of grant may not be applicable to Employee and the Company, in its discretion, determines to what extent the terms and conditions contained herein shall be applicable to Employee. If Employee transfers residency and/or employment to another country or is considered a resident of another country listed in the Addendum after the Restricted Stock Units are granted to Employee, the terms and/or information contained for that new country (rather than the original grant country) may be applicable to Employee.

CHINA
KBR, INC. 2006 STOCK AND INCENTIVE PLAN
The following provisions apply if Employee is subject to the exchange control regulations in China, as determined by the Company in its sole discretion:
Settlement of Restricted Stock Units and Sale of Stock.
Due to local regulatory requirements, upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, Employee agrees to the immediate sale of any shares of Stock to be issued to him or her upon vesting and settlement of the Restricted Stock Units. Employee further agrees that the Company is authorized to instruct its designated broker to assist with the mandatory sale of such shares of Stock (on Employee’s behalf pursuant to this authorization) and Employee expressly authorizes the Company’s designated broker to complete the sale of such shares of Stock. Employee acknowledges that the Company’s designated broker is under no obligation to arrange for the sale of shares of Stock at any particular price. Upon sale of shares of Stock, the Company agrees to pay Employee the cash proceeds from the sale of shares of Stock, less any brokerage fees or commissions and subject to any obligation to satisfy the Tax-Related Items.
Exchange Control Information.
Employee understands and agrees that, to facilitate compliance with exchange control requirements, Employee will be required to immediately repatriate to China the cash proceeds from the immediate sale of shares of Stock issued upon the vesting of the Restricted Stock Units. Employee further understands that, under local law, such repatriation of the cash proceeds may need to be effectuated through a special exchange control account established by the Company or its Subsidiaries, and Employee hereby consents and agrees that the proceeds from the sale of shares of Stock acquired under the Plan may be transferred to such special account prior to being delivered to Employee. The Company may deliver the proceeds to Employee in U.S. dollars or local currency at the Company’s discretion. If the proceeds are paid in U.S. dollars, Employee understands that he or she will be required to set up a U.S. dollar bank account in China so that the proceeds may be deposited into this account.

Employee agrees that the loan will bear interest at Her Majesty’s Revenue & Customs (“HMRC”) official rate and will be immediately due and repayable by Employee, and the Company and/or the Employer may recover it at any time thereafter by withholding the funds from salary, bonus or any other funds due to Employee by the Employer, by withholding in shares of Stock issued upon vesting and settlement of the Restricted Stock Units or from the cash proceeds from the sale of shares of Stock or by demanding cash or a cheque from Employee.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Employee is an officer or executive director (as within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), the terms of the immediately foregoing provision will not apply. In the event that Employee is an officer or executive director and the amount necessary to satisfy Tax-Related Items is not collected from or paid by Employee within 90 days of the Taxable Event, any uncollected amounts of income tax may constitute a benefit to Employee on which additional income tax and national insurance contributions may be payable. Employee acknowledges that Employee ultimately will be responsible for reporting and paying any income tax due on this additional benefit directly to HMRC under the self-assessment regime and for reimbursing the Company or the Employer (as appropriate) for the value of any national insurance contributions due on this additional benefit. Employee acknowledges that the Company or the Employer may recover any such additional income tax and national insurance contributions at any time thereafter by any of the means referred to in Paragraph 3 of the Agreement.
