Pursuant to the Insulet Corporation Second Amended and Restated 2007 Stock Option and Incentive Plan as amended through the date hereof (the “Plan”), Insulet Corporation (the “Company”) hereby grants a deferred stock award consisting of the number of Restricted Stock Units listed above (an “Award”) to the Grantee named above, who is a Non-Employee Director of the Company. Each Restricted Stock Unit shall relate to one share of Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Stock”) of the Company, subject to the restrictions and conditions set forth herein and in the Plan.
1.Acceptance of Award. The Grantee shall have no rights with respect to this Award unless he or she shall have accepted this Award.
2.Restrictions on Transfer of Award. The Award may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned or otherwise encumbered or disposed of by the Grantee, and any shares of Stock issuable with respect to the Award may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned or otherwise encumbered or disposed of until (i) the Restricted Stock Units have vested as provided in Section 3 of this Agreement and (ii) shares of Stock have been issued to the Grantee in accordance with the terms of the Plan and this Agreement.
3.Vesting of Restricted Stock Units. The Restricted Stock Units shall vest one-half on April 30 following the date of grant, and one-quarter on the first and second anniversaries of such date thereafter, provided in each case that the Grantee is then, and since the Effective Date has continuously been serving as a Director of the Company.
The Administrator may at any time accelerate the vesting schedule specified in this Paragraph 3.
4.Termination as Director. If the Grantee ceases to be a Director of the Company prior to the vesting or termination of this Award, the following shall occur:
(a)Termination Due to Death or Disability. If the Grantee ceases to be a Director of the Company by reason of the Grantee’s death or disability (as determined by the Administrator), this Award shall become fully vested on the date the Grantee ceases to be a Director of the Company for such reason.
(b)Termination for any reason other than Death or Disability. If the Grantee ceases to be a Director of the Company for any reason other than the Grantee’s death or disability prior to the satisfaction of the vesting conditions set forth in Section 3 above, any Restricted Stock Units that have not vested as of such date shall automatically and without notice terminate, be forfeited and be and become null and void, and neither the Grantee nor any of his or her successors, heirs, assigns, or personal representatives will thereafter have any further rights or interests in such unvested Restricted Stock Units.
5.Issuance of Shares of Stock. As soon as practicable following each Vesting Date (but in no event later than two and one-half months after the end of the year in which the Vesting Date occurs), the Company shall issue to the Grantee the number of shares of Stock equal to the aggregate number of Restricted Stock Units credited to the Grantee that have vested pursuant to Section 3 of this Agreement on such date and the Grantee shall thereafter have all the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to such shares, including voting and dividend rights, and such shares of Stock shall not be restricted by the provisions hereof.
6.Incorporation of Plan. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Agreement shall be subject to and governed by all the terms and conditions of the Plan, including the powers of the Administrator set forth in Section 2(b) of the Plan. Capitalized terms in this Agreement shall have the meaning specified in the Plan, unless a different meaning is specified herein.
7.Section 409A of the Code. This Agreement shall be interpreted in such a manner that all provisions relating to the settlement of the Award are exempt from the requirements of Section 409A of the Code as “short-term deferrals” as described in Section 409A of the Code.
8.No Obligation to Continue as a Director. Neither the Plan nor this Award confers upon the Grantee any rights with respect to continuance as a Director.
