Performance Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement

NY\6518985.4

An award (“Award”) for Performance Restricted Stock Units (“PRSUs”), representing a number of shares of Coach, Inc. common stock (“Common Stock”) as noted in the 2014 Performance Restricted Stock Unit Grant Notice (the “Grant Notice”) of Coach, Inc., a Maryland Corporation (the “Company”) to which this Performance Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement (this “Agreement”) is attached as an exhibit, is hereby granted to the Holder (“you”) on the date set forth in the Grant Notice, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The PRSUs are also subject to the terms, definitions and provisions of the Amended and Restated Coach, Inc. 2010 Stock Incentive Plan (as amended, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Stock Incentive Plan”) adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) and approved by the Company’s shareholders, which is incorporated in this Agreement. To the extent inconsistent with this Agreement, the terms of the Stock Incentive Plan shall govern. Terms not defined herein shall have the meanings as set forth in the Stock Incentive Plan. The Human Resources Committee of the Board (the “Committee”) has the discretionary authority to construe and interpret the Stock Incentive Plan and this Agreement. All decisions of the Committee upon any question arising under the Stock Incentive Plan or under this Agreement shall be final and binding on all parties. The Award and the PRSUs issued thereunder are subject to the following terms and conditions:


1.	PRSU AWARD

The target number of PRSUs subject to this award (the “Target Number of PRSUs”) is set forth in the Grant Notice. The actual number of PRSUs which vest pursuant to the Award may be greater than or less than the Target Number of PRSUs based on the Company’s achievement of the Performance Goals (as defined below) during the period June 29, 2014 (the first day of the Company’s 2015 fiscal year) and ending on July 1, 2017 (the last day of the Company’s 2017 fiscal year) (the “Performance Period”) and determined in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth in Section 2(a) below.

PRSUs are considered Performance Stock Units under the Stock Incentive Plan. Each PRSU represents the right to receive one share of Common Stock upon the satisfaction of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Stock Incentive Plan (the “Restrictions”).


2.	VESTING AND SETTLEMENT OF PRSUS

PRSUs shall vest and be settled in accordance with the provisions of the Stock Incentive Plan as follows:


(a)	Vesting

Each vested PRSU is equal in value to one share of Common Stock. Except as set forth in Section 5, if the Committee certifies that, as of July 1, 2017 (the last day of the Performance Period) (the “Measurement Date”), the Company has achieved the applicable Productivity Measure (as defined below), Strategic Objective Measure (as defined below) and Sales Measure (as defined below) (collectively, the “Performance Goals”), the PRSUs subject to the Award shall be eligible to become vested on the third anniversary of the Grant Date (the “Vesting Date”) based on the Performance Level (as defined below) pursuant to the vesting schedule set forth in the Performance Goal Schedule (as defined below). The weighted average vesting schedule provided in the Performance Goal Schedule is set forth in the following table (and the maximum payout -- assuming Maximum Performance Level with respect to all three Performance Goals -- is 170% of the Target Number of PRSUs as set forth below):

NY\6518985.4



Performance Level	PRSUs Earned as % of Target Number of PRSUs
Maximum	170%
Target	100%
Threshold	30%

If the Performance Level for the Performance Period is less than Threshold (as defined below) with respect to a Performance Goal, no PRSUs shall be earned or become vested on the Vesting Date with respect to such Performance Goal. If the Performance Level for the Performance Period is between Threshold and Target (as defined below) or between Target and Maximum (as defined below) with respect to a Performance Goal, then the number of PRSUs that shall become vested on the Vesting Date with respect to such Performance Goal shall be determined by means of linear interpolation.

For purposes of this Agreement, (i) “Productivity Measure” shall mean the goal established by the Committee with respect to % of the Award and set forth on the FY[ ] PRSU Award Goals and Payout table attached as Exhibit B hereto (the “Performance Goal Schedule”), (ii) “Strategic Objective Measure” shall mean the goal established by the Committee with respect to % of the Award and set forth on the Performance Goal Schedule, (iii) “Sales Measure” shall mean the goal established by the Committee with respect to % of the Award and set forth on the Performance Goal Schedule, (iv) “Performance Level” with respect to each Performance Goal shall mean the Company’s performance result with respect to fiscal years 2015-17 (measured in dollars or store numbers, as applicable) with respect to such Performance Goal, and (v) “Threshold,” “Target” and “Maximum” shall mean, respectively, the minimum, target and maximum amounts established by the Committee with respect to each Performance Goal (measured in terms of compound annual growth rate percentages or store numbers, as applicable), as set forth on the Performance Goal Schedule.

As provided in the Stock Incentive Plan, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may provide that one or more objectively determinable adjustments shall be made to any Performance Goal; provided that any such determination shall be made within the time prescribed by, and otherwise in compliance with, Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the “Code”).


(b)	Settlement; Withholding Taxes

Earned PRSUs shall be settled upon, or as soon as reasonably practicable following, the Vesting Date (and in no event later than the end of the short term deferral period as set forth in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A). Applicable withholding taxes will be settled by withholding a number of shares of Common Stock with a market value not less than the amount of such taxes (determined at the minimum applicable rates), and the net number of shares of Common Stock subject to the Award shall be distributed to you; provided that in the event that the Company is liquidated in bankruptcy (a) the Committee will not release shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Award and (b) all payments made pursuant to the Award will be made in a per-share cash payment equal to the fair market value per share of Common Stock on the distribution date.


(c)	Restrictions on Resale

The shares you will receive under the Award on or following the Vesting Date (or such other vesting date pursuant to Section 5) generally are freely tradable in the United States. However, you may not offer, sell or

NY\6518985.4

otherwise dispose of any shares in a way which would (i) require the Company to file any registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (or any similar filing under state law or the laws of any other country) or to amend or supplement any such filing, or (ii) violate or cause the Company to violate the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, any other state or federal law, or the laws of any other country. The Company reserves the right to place restrictions required by law on any shares of Common Stock received by you pursuant to the Award.


3.	DIVIDEND EQUIVALENTS

You shall be eligible to receive Dividend Equivalents (as defined in the Stock Incentive Plan) with respect to the Award (the “Dividend Equivalent PRSUs”). For purposes of determining the amount of Dividend Equivalent PRSUs on each dividend record date, an amount representing dividends payable on the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of PRSUs subject to the Award shall be deemed reinvested in Common Stock and credited as additional PRSUs as of the dividend payment date. The Dividend Equivalent PRSUs shall vest as of the Vesting Date of the underlying PRSUs (or, if earlier, the date such underlying PRSUs are distributed to the Executive pursuant to Section 5 of this Agreement) and shall be distributed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, that all Dividend Equivalent PRSUs (including Dividend Equivalent PRSUs paid with respect to any prior year’s Dividend Equivalent PRSUs) will be subject to forfeiture if the underlying PRSUs are forfeited in accordance with the forfeiture and vesting provisions set forth in this Agreement or otherwise.


4.	NONTRANSFERABILITY OF PRSUS

The PRSUs may not be sold, pledged, assigned or transferred in any manner except in the event of your death. In the event of your death, the PRSUs may be transferred to the person indicated on a valid beneficiary designation form, or if no beneficiary designation form is on file with the Company, then to the person to whom your rights have passed by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Except as set forth in Section 5 below, the PRSUs may be settled during your lifetime only by you or by your guardian or legal representative. The terms of the Award shall be binding upon your executors, administrators, heirs and successors.

Notwithstanding Section 5(a), if you cease active employment with the Coach Companies because of your death or Disability prior to the Vesting Date, the Target Number of PRSUs subject to the Award shall become vested effective as of the Date of Termination and such vested PRSUs shall be distributed to you (or your estate, as the case may be) as soon as reasonably practicable on or following such Date of Termination.

NY\6518985.4


(c)	Retirement. Notwithstanding Section 5(a), if you cease active employment with the Coach Companies because of your Retirement prior to the Vesting Date, the PRSUs shall remain eligible to become vested on the Vesting Date, pursuant to Section 2, based on actual Company achievement of the Performance Goals as determined as of the Measurement Date.

Notwithstanding Section 5(a), if your employment with the Coach Companies is terminated by the Coach Companies prior to the Vesting Date and you are eligible to receive severance benefits under any written severance plan or policy of the Coach Companies or an employment agreement between you and the Coach Companies in connection with such termination, then a pro-rata portion of the Award, determined based upon the number of days elapsed during the Performance Period prior to the last day of the Severance Period (as defined below), shall remain eligible to become vested on the Vesting Date, pursuant to Section 2, based on actual Company achievement of the Performance Goals as determined as of the Measurement Date.

11.	FORFEITURE AND CLAWBACK PROVISIONS

(a)

PRSU Claw-Back. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, (i) if your employment with the Coach Companies is terminated for Cause (as defined above) (“Termination for Cause”), (ii) if you elect to terminate your employment with the Coach Companies (including in the event of your Retirement) and you do not provide the Coach Companies with the Required Notice applicable to your level (“Termination without Notice”), or (iii) if you engage in any activity inimical, contrary or harmful to the interests of the Coach Companies during your employment with the Coach Companies or at any time during the period ending one (1) year after your employment with the Coach Companies terminates, including but not limited to (A) violating any of the Restrictive Covenants (as defined below), (B) violating any business standards established by the Company, or (C) participating in any activity not approved by the Board of Directors which is reasonably likely to contribute to or result in a Change in Control, as defined in Article 2 of the Stock Incentive Plan (such activities to be collectively referred to as “Wrongful Conduct”), then (x) this Award, to the extent it remains restricted, shall be forfeited automatically on the date on which you first engaged in such Wrongful Conduct or the date of your Termination for Cause or Termination without Notice, whichever is applicable, and (y) you shall pay to the Company in cash or shares any PRSU Gain (as defined below) received by you within the twelve (12) month period (if your role is at the Corporate level of Vice President or higher) or six (6) month period (if your role is below the Corporate level of Vice President) immediately preceding the date on which you first engaged in such Wrongful Conduct or the date of your Termination for Cause or Termination without Notice. For the avoidance of doubt, the claw-back provisions set forth in this Section 11(a) are in addition to any other claw-back policy applicable to you, including, without limitation, the Company’s incentive repayment policy in the event of employee accountability for a material restatement of the Company’s financial results and any claw-back or similar requirements which might be imposed pursuant to Section 304 under the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002, or pursuant to any modification or expansion of the Company’s claw-back policy to the extent required by the Xxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2010 and the related rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

You acknowledge and agree that the Company is granting you the Award in consideration of your agreement to be bound by the Restrictive Covenants. Accordingly, if you breach any of the Restrictive Covenants, in addition to the forfeiture and claw-back consequences described in Section 11(a), the Company shall be entitled to recover any damages incurred as a result of such breach. You further acknowledge and agree that the Coach Companies would be irreparably harmed by any breach of the Restrictive Covenants and that money damages would be an inadequate remedy for any such breach and, accordingly, in the event of your breach or threatened breach of any of the Restrictive Covenants, the Company may, in addition to any money damages or other rights and remedies existing in its favor, apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for specific performance and/or injunctive or other relief in order to enforce, or prevent any violations of, the Restrictive Covenants. For the avoidance of doubt, the remedies in law and in equity for any breach of the Restrictive Covenants set forth in this Section 11(c) are in addition to, and cumulative of, the claw-back and forfeiture provisions set forth in Section 11(a).

UNITED KINGDOM

Disapplication of Retirement Provisions in Section 4 of this Agreement.

The provisions set forth in Section 4 of this Agreement regarding continued vesting following termination of employment with the Coach Companies due to Retirement do not apply to Participants in the United Kingdom. In the event of such termination, the provisions set forth in Section 5(b) regarding voluntary termination of employment shall govern.

The following provisions supplement Section 3 of the Agreement:

Distribution of the Award. Regardless of any action the Company or any Affiliate employing you (the “Employer”) take with respect to any or all federal, state, local or foreign income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax related items (“Tax Related Items”), you acknowledge that the ultimate liability for all Tax Related Items associated with the RSUs is and remains your responsibility and 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 RSUs, including, but not limited to, the grant or vesting of the RSUs, the delivery of the Shares, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired at vesting and the receipt of any dividends or dividend equivalents; and (ii) do not commit to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the RSUs to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax Related Items. Further, if you have relocated to a different jurisdiction between the date of grant and the date of any taxable event, you acknowledge 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 the relevant taxable event, you shall pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer (in its sole discretion) to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, you authorize the Company and/or the Employer, in their sole discretion, to satisfy the obligations with regard to all Tax Related Items legally payable by you by one or a combination of the following: (i) require you to pay Tax-Related Items in cash with a cashier’s check or certified check; (ii) withholding cash from your wages or other compensation payable to you by the Company and/or the Employer; (iii) arranging for the sale of Shares otherwise issuable to you upon vesting of the RSUs (on your behalf and at your direction pursuant to this authorization); (iv) withholding from the proceeds of the sale of Shares acquired upon vesting of the RSUs; or (v) withholding in Shares otherwise issuable to you, provided that the Company withholds only the amount of Shares necessary to satisfy the minimum statutory withholding amount or such other amount as may be necessary to avoid adverse accounting treatment using the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of the relevant taxable event. You shall pay to the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold as a result of your participation in the Plan that are not satisfied by any of the means previously described. The Company may refuse to deliver the Shares to you if you fail to comply with your obligations in connection with the Tax Related Items as described in this Section.

If payment or withholding of income tax is not made within ninety (90) days of the end of the U.K. tax year in which the event giving rise to the income tax occurs, or such other period specified in Section 222(1)(c) of the U.K. Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003 (the “Due Date”), the amount of any uncollected income tax shall constitute a loan owed by you to your Employer, effective on the Due Date. You agree that the loan will bear interest at the then-current Official Rate of Her Majesty’s Revenue & Customs (“HMRC”), it will be immediately due and repayable, and the Company or your Employer may recover it at any time thereafter by any of the means referred to in this Appendix.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if you are a director or executive officer of the Company (within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), you shall not be eligible for a loan from the Company to cover the income tax. In the event that you are a director or executive officer and income tax is not collected from or paid by you by the Due Date, the amount of any uncollected income tax may constitute a benefit to you on which additional income tax and national insurance contributions (“NICs”) may be payable. You understand that you will be responsible for reporting any income tax and NICs due on this additional benefit directly to HMRC under the self-assessment regime.

NY\6518985.4

Joint Election for Transfer of the Employer’s Secondary Class 1 NICs Liability. As a condition of participation in the Plan and the vesting of the Award, you agree to accept any liability for secondary Class 1 NICs which may be payable by the Company and/or the Employer in connection with the RSUs and any event giving rise to Tax-Related Items (the “Employer NICs”). Without prejudice to the foregoing, you agree to execute a joint election with the Company, the form of such joint election being formally approved by HMRC (the “Joint Election”), in the form set forth in Exhibit A to this Annex, and any other required consent or election. You further agree to execute such other joint elections as may be required between you any successor to the Company and/or the Employer. You further agree that the Company and/or the Employer may collect the Employer NICs from him or her by any of the means set forth in this Appendix.

If you do not enter into a Joint Election prior to vesting of the Award, you will not be entitled to vest in the Shares unless and until you enter into a Joint Election and no Shares will be issued to you under the Plan, without any liability to the Company and/or the Employer.
