In accordance with the provisions of the “Xerox Corporation Equity Compensation Plan for Non-Employee Directors” (as from time to time amended, the “Plan”), the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) has authorized the execution and delivery of this Agreement.

TERMS OF THE RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS
2. Vesting. The RSU shall vest on the earlier of the vesting date indicated on the Award Summary, or the date of death (the “Vesting Date”). If, prior to the Vesting Date, a Director terminates Board service for any reason other than death, the RSU shall vest pro-rata, determined on a monthly basis. On the date of death, if prior to the Vesting Date, the entire RSU shall vest and shall not be prorated.
3. Entitlement to Shares. Within thirty (30) days following the Vesting Date of the RSU, the Company shall deliver to such Director or his or her estate, as the case may be, a certificate or certificates for, or shall deliver in book form, the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of vested RSUs. No fractional shares shall be issued.
4. Dividend Equivalents. On the Vesting Date, Director shall become entitled to receive from the Company a cash payment equaling the same amount(s) that the holder of record of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of RSUs covered by this Agreement, that are held by Director on the close of business on the business day immediately following the Vesting Date, would have been entitled to receive as dividends on such Common Stock during the period commencing on the effective date hereof and ending on the Vesting Date as provided under Paragraph 2. Payments under this Paragraph shall be made within thirty (30) days following the Vesting Date.
OTHER TERMS
5. Rights of a Shareholder. Director shall have no rights as a shareholder with respect to any shares covered by this Agreement until the date of issuance of a stock certificate to him for such shares. Except as otherwise provided herein, no adjustment shall be made for dividends or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date such stock certificate is issued or the date that shares are delivered in book form.
6. Non-Assignability. This Agreement shall not be assignable or transferable by Director except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and except pursuant to a domestic relations order entered by a court of competent jurisdiction. During the lifetime of Director, the shares of Common Stock issued in connection with RSUs shall be delivered only to Director.
7. General Restrictions. If at any time the Chief Executive Officer of the Company (“CEO”) shall determine, in his/her discretion, that the listing, registration or qualification of any shares subject to this Agreement upon any securities exchange or under any state or Federal law, or the consent or approval of any government regulatory body, is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the awarding of or the issuance of RSUs or shares hereunder, the RSUs or shares may not be awarded or issued unless and until such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the CEO and any delay caused thereby shall in no way affect the date of termination of the award.
8. Tax Withholding and Information Reporting. Whenever the Plan provides that shares of Common Stock are to be delivered following the Vesting Date, the Company shall have the right to require Director to remit to the Company an amount sufficient to satisfy any federal, state, and/or local withholding tax requirements prior to the delivery of such certificates. In addition, the Company shall have the right to satisfy any withholding requirements by withholding shares of Common Stock from the shares of Common Stock otherwise deliverable to Director, provided, however, that no shares of Common Stock are to be withheld with a value exceeding the minimum amount of tax required to be withheld by law. The Company will report income to Director on IRS Form 1099, 1042-S, or other appropriate information form or return.
