Section 2.2 — RSU Payment In accordance with Section 6(b) of the Plan, the Shares to be issued upon settlement of the RSUs must be fully paid up prior to issuance of Shares by payment of the nominal value (US$0.000115) per Share. The Committee shall ensure that payment of the nominal value for any Shares underlying the RSUs is received by it on behalf of the Executive at the time the RSUs are settled from a Subsidiary or other source and shall establish any procedures or protocols necessary to ensure that payment is timely received.

Section 2.3 — Adjustments in RSUs Pursuant to Merger, Consolidation, etc. Subject to Sections 9 and 10 of the Plan, in the event that the outstanding Shares subject to the RSUs are, from time to time, changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of Shares or other securities, by reason of a share split, spin-off, shares or extraordinary cash dividend, share combination or reclassification, recapitalization, merger, Change of Control, or similar event, the Committee shall, in its absolute discretion, make an appropriate and equitable adjustment in the number and kind of Shares. Any adjustments or determination made by the Committee shall be final and binding upon the Executive, the Company and all other interested persons. An adjustment may have the effect of reducing the price at which Shares may be acquired to less than their nominal value (the “Shortfall”), but only if and to the extent that the Committee shall be authorized to capitalize from the reserves of the Company a sum equal to the Shortfall and to apply that sum in paying up that amount on the Shares. Section 2.4 — Tax Withholding The Executive must make full payment to the Company or any Subsidiary by which the Executive is employed (the “Employer”) of all income tax, payroll tax, payment on account, and social insurance contribution amounts (“Tax”), which under federal, state, local or foreign law, it is required to withhold upon vesting, settlement or other tax event of the RSUs. In a case where any Employer is obliged to (or would suffer a disadvantage if it were not to) account for any Tax (in any jurisdiction) for which the Executive is liable by virtue of the Executive’s participation in the Plan and/or any social insurance contributions recoverable from and legally applicable to the Executive (the “Tax-Related Items”), the Executive will pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, the Executive may elect to satisfy the obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following: (i) withholding from the Executive’s wages or other cash compensation paid to the Executive by the Company and/or the Employer; or (ii) withholding from proceeds of the sale of Shares acquired upon vesting of the RSUs either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on the Executive’s behalf pursuant to this authorization); or (iii) withholding in Shares to be issued at vesting of the RSUs, to the extent the Company permits this withholding method. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in Shares, for tax purposes, the Executive is deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject to vested RSUs, notwithstanding that a number of Shares are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of any aspect of the Executive’s participation in the Plan. To avoid any negative accounting treatment, the Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding amounts or other applicable withholding rates. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.4, in order to avoid a prohibited acceleration under Section 409A of the Code, the number of Shares that the Employer shall be permitted to withhold or sell on behalf of the Executive to satisfy any liability for Tax-Related Items with respect to any portion of the RSUs that is considered deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code shall not exceed that number of Shares that equals the aggregate amount of all Tax-Related Items. Finally, the Executive 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 or account for as a result of the Executive’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. Section 2.5 — Clawback Policy The Company may cancel all or part of the RSUs or require payment by the Executive to the Company of all or part of any amount or Shares acquired by the Executive upon vesting and settlement of the RSUs pursuant to the Company’s Clawback Policy dated December 2009, as amended from time to time, except to the extent prohibited under applicable law.

ARTICLE III PERFORMANCE AND TIME-BASED VESTING REQUIREMENTS Section 3.1 — Earned Performance Shares (a) Subject to Sections 3.1(b),(c), and (d) below and subject to the aggregate amount payable limitations under the SMIP, the Shares subject to the RSUs shall become Earned Performance Shares as of the Certification Date and shall become eligible to vest and become payable in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.2 if and to the extent that the Performance Objectives set out in Target 1 (applicable to 50% of Target Number of Shares) and Target 2 (applicable to 50% of Target Number of Shares) of Exhibit 1 to the Acceptance Form are attained and subject to the Executive being in the employment of the Company or any Subsidiary at each respective vesting date as set forth in Section 3.2 below. (b) The Performance Objectives may be adjusted in accordance with the terms of the Plan to the extent such adjustments would not prevent the RSUs from qualifying as qualified performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) of the Code. (c) As of the Certification Date, the Committee shall certify the amount payable under the SMIP, determine the attainment level of applicable Performance Objectives, and based on such certification and determination, shall declare the number of Shares subject to the RSUs that shall become Earned Performance Shares. Anything to the contrary in this Section 3.1 and Exhibit 1 to the Acceptance Form notwithstanding, the Committee retains sole discretion to determine the number of Shares subject to the RSUs that will become Earned Performance Shares, subject to any requirements under Code Section 162(m). (d) Shares subject to the RSUs that are not declared by the Committee on the Certification Date to be Earned Performance Shares shall be forfeited immediately. (e) If, prior to the end of the Performance Period there is a Change of Control, the Performance Objectives will be deemed to be attained at the level (not to exceed the maximum level) determined by the Committee as to all of the unearned Shares underlying the RSUs and deem them to be Earned Performance Shares; provided, however, (i) that no RSU shall become an Earned Performance Share prior to the Certification Date or to the extent such exercise of discretion would result in a payment exceeding the amount payable under SMIP, and (ii) that the time-based vesting requirements set forth in Section 3.2 shall continue to apply. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee shall retain all discretion to waive the vesting requirements set forth in Section 3.2 in connection with a Change of Control so as to vest the Shares at an earlier date than that specified in Section 3.2. Section 3.2 — Vesting/Settlement (a) Subject to the Executive’s continued employment with the Xxxxxx Group through the applicable vesting date set forth below and Section 3.2(b), the Earned Performance Shares shall vest as follows and become payable in accordance with Section 3.2(e) below:


	Percentage of Earned
Date Earned Performance Shares Become Vested	Performance Shares

First anniversary of Grant Date (May 2, 2012) (or, if later, the Certification Date)		50	%
Second anniversary of Grant Date (May 2, 2013)		50	%

(b) In the event of a termination of the Executive’s employment with the Xxxxxx Group by an employer in the Xxxxxx Group without Cause, by the Executive for Good Reason, or due to death, Disability or Mutual Retirement, any employment or service requirements shall be waived but the performance criteria set forth in Section 3.1(a) and Exhibit 1 to the Acceptance Form, if any, shall remain and the RSUs shall become fully vested with respect to all Earned Performance Shares on the termination date or, if later, on the applicable Certification Date (or as otherwise provided in this Section 3.1(e)). (c) In the event of a termination of the Executive’s employment with the Xxxxxx Group by an employer in the Xxxxxx Group for Cause or by the Executive without Good Reason, any unvested Earned Performance Shares will be immediately forfeited by the Executive.

(d) The Executive agrees to execute the Acceptance Form and deliver it to the Company within 45 days of the receipt of the Agreement. (e) Earned Performance Shares that become vested in accordance with this Section 3.2 shall be delivered on the later of (i) March 1, 2012 or (ii) the date the Executive incurs a “separation from service” (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code), subject to any delay in payment required as set forth in Section 7(k) of the Employment Agreement. Section 3.3 — Conditions to Issuance of Shares The Earned Performance Shares to be delivered, as set out in 3.2(e) above, may be either previously authorized but unissued Shares or issued Shares held by any other person. Such Shares shall be fully paid. The Company shall not be required to deliver any certificates representing such Shares (or their electronic equivalent) allotted and issued upon the applicable date of the settlement of the RSUs prior to fulfillment of all of the following conditions, and in any event, subject to Section 409A of the Code: (a) The obtaining of approval or other clearance from any state, federal, local or foreign governmental agency which the Committee shall, in its absolute discretion, determine to be necessary or advisable; (b) The Executive has paid or made arrangements to pay the Tax-Related items pursuant to Section 2.4; and (c) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Committee may in the case of U.S. resident employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries require an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to it to the effect that any subsequent transfer of Shares acquired on the vesting of RSUs does not violate the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and may issue stop-transfer orders in the U.S. covering such Shares. Section 3.4 — Rights as Shareholder The Executive shall not be, nor have any of the rights or privileges of, a shareholder of the Company in respect of any Shares that may be received upon the settlement of the RSUs unless and until certificates representing such Shares or their electronic equivalent shall have been issued by the Company to the Executive. Section 3.5 — Limitation on Obligations The Company’s obligation with respect to the RSUs granted hereunder is limited solely to the delivery to the Executive of Shares within the period when such Shares are due to be delivered hereunder, and in no way shall the Company become obligated to pay cash in respect of such obligation. The RSUs shall not be secured by any specific assets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, nor shall any assets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries be designated as attributable or allocated to the satisfaction of the Company’s obligations under this Agreement. In addition, the Company shall not be liable to the Executive for damages relating to any delays in issuing the share certificates or its electronic equivalent to the Executive (or his designated entities), any loss of the certificates, or any mistakes or errors in the issuance of the certificates (or the electronic equivalent) to the Executive (or his designated entities) or in the certificates themselves. ARTICLE IV DATA PRIVACY NOTICE AND CONSENT Section 4 — Data Privacy (a) The Executive hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of the Executive’s personal data as described in this Agreement and any other RSU materials by and among, as applicable, the Employer, the Company and its Subsidiaries for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Executive’s participation in the Plan.

(b) The Executive understands that the Company and the Employer may hold certain personal information about the Executive, including, but not limited to, the Executive’s name, home address, 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 RSUs or any other entitlement to Shares awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in the Executive’s favor, for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Plan (“Data”). (c) The Executive understands that Data will be transferred to Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxx or to any other third party assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. The Executive understands that the recipients of the Data may be located in the Executive’s country or elsewhere, and that the recipients’ country (e.g., Ireland) may have different data privacy laws and protections from the Executive’s country. The Executive understands that he may request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Data by contacting his local human resources representative. The Executive authorizes the Company, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxx and any other recipients of Data 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 his participation in the Plan. The Executive understands that Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage the Executive’s participation in the Plan. The Executive understands that he 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 his local human resources representative.

SCHEDULE B COUNTRY-SPECIFIC APPENDIX TO XXXXXX GROUP HOLDINGS 2008 SHARE PURCHASE AND OPTION PLAN (AS AMENDED AND RESTATED ON DECEMBER 30, 2009 BY XXXXXX GROUP HOLDINGS LIMITED AND AS AMENDED AND RESTATED AND ASSUMED BY XXXXXX GROUP HOLDINGS PUBLIC LIMITED COMPANY ON DECEMBER 31, 2009) Terms and Conditions This Schedule B includes additional terms and conditions that govern the Restricted Share Unit Award granted to the Executive under the Plan if the Executive resides in one of the countries listed below. This Schedule B forms part of the Agreement. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement or the Plan. Notifications This Schedule B also includes information based on the securities, exchange control and other laws in effect in the Executive’s country as of May 2011. Such laws are often complex and change frequently. As a result, the Company strongly recommends that the Executive not rely on the information noted herein as the only source of information relating to the consequences of the Executive’s participation in the Plan because the information may be out of date at the time the RSUs vest under the Plan. In addition, the information is general in nature. The Company is not providing the Executive with any tax advice with respect to the RSUs. The information is provided below may not apply to the Executive’s particular situation, and the Company is not in a position to assure the Executive of any particular result. Accordingly, the Executive is strongly advised to seek appropriate professional advice as to how the tax or other laws in the Executive’s country apply to the Executive’s situation. Finally, if the Executive is a citizen or resident of a country other than the one in which the Executive is currently working, transfers employment after the RSU award is granted, or is considered a resident of another country for local law purposes, the notifications contained herein may not be applicable to the Executive, and the Company shall, in its discretion, determine to what extent the terms and conditions contained herein shall be applicable to the Executive. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA Exchange Control Information. United States persons who have signature or other authority over, or a financial interest in, bank, securities or other financial accounts outside of the United States (including a non-U.S. brokerage account holding the Company’s Shares or proceeds from the sale of same) must file a Foreign Bank and Financial Accounts Report (“FBAR”) with the United States Internal Revenue Service each calendar year in which the aggregate value of the accounts exceeds $10,000.
