(a)Award. Subject to the terms and conditions of this , including any country-specific terms in Appendix B hereto and any other exhibits or addendums to these documents (collectively, this “Agreement”) and the Plan, Xxxxxxx & Xxxxxxx, a New Jersey corporation (the “Corporation”), hereby grants you Performance Share Units (“PSUs”) in the above-stated target number (the “Target Number of PSUs”).

Each PSU that becomes vested in accordance with this Agreement will be settled in one share of Common Stock of the Corporation, par value $1.00 per share (“Common Stock”), or cash in lieu thereof, in either case subject to and in accordance with the terms of Section 4 of this Agreement. Except where the context clearly indicates otherwise, each capitalized term used herein shall have the definition assigned to it by this Agreement or, to the extent that this Agreement does not define a capitalized term used herein, by the Plan. The PSUs granted herein are subject to all of the terms and conditions of the Plan, and the terms of the Plan are hereby incorporated herein by reference.

(b)Conditions. This grant of PSUs is conditioned on your (i) electronically accepting this grant on the website of the Plan recordkeeper (or in such other manner as the Corporation may establish or permit from time to time) and (ii) opening and maintaining a

brokerage account that is permitted for use with respect to awards granted under the Plan, in each case by the deadline established by the Corporation and/or set forth on the website of the Plan recordkeeper. By accepting this grant of PSUs, you will have confirmed your acceptance of all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. If you do not accept this grant of PSUs by the applicable deadline, your grant will be cancelled.

2.Vesting of PSUs; Competition with the Corporation Group.

(a)General. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 2, on the later of the above-stated Scheduled Vesting Date or the Certification Date you shall vest in a number of PSUs, if any, based upon the achievement of specified levels of performance during the Performance Period (as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion), as set forth in Appendix A hereto (the “Performance Goals”), provided, that, (i) you are Employed on the Scheduled Vesting Date and have been Employed at all times since the Grant Date and (ii) you have complied with and are in compliance with the terms of this Agreement, as determined by the Corporation in its sole discretion.

(b)Termination of Employment - General. If, prior to the Scheduled Vesting Date, you cease to be Employed for any reason, then except as otherwise provided in Section 2(c) (Certain Terminations; Disability), the PSUs shall be forfeited for no consideration on the Date of Termination.

(c)Certain Terminations; Disability.

(i)Termination of Employment due to Death. If, prior to the Scheduled Vesting Date, you die while Employed, then, to the extent the PSUs are still outstanding, your estate, beneficiary or any person who acquires the PSUs by inheritance or devise, as applicable, shall (i) immediately become vested in the Target Number of PSUs on your date of death and (ii) be eligible to vest in the Top-Up Number of PSUs on the Certification Date based upon actual achievement relative to the Performance Goals during the Performance Period, and your estate, beneficiary or any person who acquires the PSUs by inheritance or devise, as applicable, shall receive a number of shares of Common Stock (or cash in lieu thereof), as provided in Section 4 (Settlement of PSUs; Tax Withholding; Compliance With Securities Laws; Compliance with Compensation Recoupment Policy).

(ii)Disability. If, prior to the Scheduled Vesting Date, you become Disabled while Employed, then, to the extent the PSUs are still outstanding, you shall (i) immediately become vested in the Target Number of PSUs on the date of Disability and (ii) be eligible to vest in the Top-Up Number of PSUs on the Certification Date based upon actual achievement relative to the Performance Goals during the Performance Period.

(iii)Termination due to Specified Divestiture or Reduction in Force. If, prior to the Scheduled Vesting Date, (A) your Employment terminates as a result of a Specified Divestiture or a Reduction in Force and (B) at the time of such termination of Employment, the conditions set forth in Section 2(c)(iv) (Qualifying Separation) are not satisfied with respect to the PSUs, then, a Pro Rata Number of PSUs shall remain outstanding and you shall be eligible to become vested in a number of PSUs (which may be more or less than the Pro Rata Number of PSUs) on the Certification Date in accordance with Section 2(a), based upon actual achievement relative to the Performance Goals during the Performance Period using the Pro Rata Number of PSUs (and not the Target Number of PSUs) as a base. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Pro Rata Number of PSUs” means the number of PSUs equal to the result, rounded to the nearest whole number, of (I) the Target Number of PSUs, multiplied by (II) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days that elapsed from the Grant Date through and including the Date of Termination and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the period commencing

on the Grant Date and ending on (and including) the Scheduled Vesting Date. Notwithstanding this Section 2(c)(iii), you will be treated as having terminated Employment pursuant to Section 2(b) hereof (Termination of Employment – General) if, at any time prior to the Scheduled Vesting Date, the Corporation determines in its sole discretion that applying this Section 2(c)(iii) in a particular case (or cases) is not advisable or appropriate or consistent with the intent of this Section 2(c)(iii).

(iv)Qualifying Separation. If your Employment terminates prior to the Scheduled Vesting Date, but after the date that is six (6) months following the Grant Date:

(A)for any reason other than a termination of Employment pursuant to Section 2(c)(i) (Termination of Employment due to Death) or Section 2(c)(vi) (Termination for Cause), and

(B)as of the Date of Termination, either (I) you have attained age fifty-five (55) and have at least ten (10) years of Service with at least five (5) consecutive years of Service immediately before your Date of Termination or (II) you have attained age sixty-two (62) (a termination of Employment that satisfies the conditions set forth in clauses (A) and (B) above, a “Qualifying Separation”),

then, subject to the terms of this Agreement, to the extent the PSUs are still outstanding, the PSUs shall remain outstanding and eligible to become vested on the Certification Date in accordance with Section 2(a) of this Agreement, based upon actual achievement relative to the Performance Goals during the Performance Period. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 2(c)(iv) (Qualifying Separation) shall not apply if your Employment terminates on or prior to the date that is six (6) months following the Grant Date, as reflected in the records of the Corporation. If a termination of Employment satisfies the conditions set forth in Section 2(c)(iii) (Termination due to Specified Divestiture or Reduction in Force) and this Section 2(c)(iv) (Qualifying Separation), only this Section 2(c)(iv) (Qualifying Separation) shall apply.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, you will be treated as having terminated Employment pursuant to Section 2(b) hereof (Termination of Employment – General) if, at any time prior to the Scheduled Vesting Date, the Corporation determines in its discretion that applying this Section 2(c)(iv) (Qualifying Separation), (1) to employees based on age at the time of termination of Employment and not to all employees may violate any law or public policy applicable to you and/or the PSUs (whether as applied to all holders of PSUs or only holders of PSUs in the jurisdiction where you are employed), or (2) in a particular case (or cases) is not advisable or appropriate or consistent with the intent of this Section 2(c)(iv).

(v)Death Following Certain Terminations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if you die following (A) a termination of Employment pursuant to Section 2(c)(iv) (Qualifying Separation) or (B) a termination of Employment pursuant to Section 2(c)(iii) (Termination due to Specified Divestiture or Reduction in Force), but in either case prior to the Scheduled Vesting Date, then your estate, beneficiary or any person who acquires the PSUs by inheritance or devise, as applicable, shall (I) become vested in (x) the Target Number of PSUs on the date of your death following a termination of Employment pursuant to Section 2(c)(iv) (Qualifying Separation) or (y) the Pro Rata Number of PSUs on the date of your death following a termination of Employment pursuant to Section 2(c)(iii) (Termination due to Specified Divestiture or Reduction in Force), and (II) be eligible to vest in the Top-Up Number of PSUs on the Certification Date based upon actual achievement relative to the Performance Goals during the Performance Period; provided, that, in the event of your death following a termination of Employment pursuant to Section 2(c)(iii) (Termination due to Specified Divestiture or Reduction in Force), the Top-Up Number of PSUs shall be equal to the positive difference, if any, between the number of PSUs that would have vested based on actual achievement relative to the

Performance Goals during the Performance Period (based on the Pro Rata Number of PSUs that remain outstanding following the Date of Termination), less the Pro Rata Number of PSUs (the “Pro Rata Top-Up Number of PSUs”).

(vi)Termination for Cause. Without limiting the generality of Section 2(b), and notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2(c), if you cease to be Employed for any reason (including, without limitation, as a result of your voluntary resignation) in connection with or following the occurrence of an event that constitutes Cause, then the PSUs and any other awards you hold under the Plan shall immediately be forfeited for no consideration as of the Date of Termination. If following your Date of Termination, the Corporation becomes aware of conduct or activity by you that occurred during or following your Employment that would have constituted Cause, then any PSUs (or portions thereof) or any other awards held by you under the Plan that are unvested or unexercised (and any payments or benefits in respect thereto) as of the date that the Corporation becomes aware of such conduct or activity shall be forfeited.

(vii)Corporation Determinations. In the event of your termination of Employment, the determination of the reason for such termination and the applicable treatment under this Section 2 shall be made by the Corporation in its sole discretion.

(d)Competition With the Corporation Group. In order to protect the Corporation Group’s goodwill and investments in research and development and Customer and business relationships and to prevent the disclosure of the Corporation Group’s confidential and trade secret information, thereby promoting the long-term success of the Corporation Group’s business, you agree to the following:

(i)During your Employment, you will not, without the prior written consent of the Corporation, directly or indirectly engage in Competitive Activities.

(ii)For a period of eighteen (18) months following your Date of Termination, you will not, without the prior written consent of the Corporation, directly or indirectly perform, or assist others to perform, work for a Competitor in a position or in any geographic location in which you could disadvantage the Corporation Group or advantage the Competitor through (a) your disclosure or use of the Corporation Group’s confidential or trade secret information and/or (b) your use of the Corporation Group’s Customer relationships and goodwill.

(iii)Rescission and Forfeiture. You understand and agree that if the Corporation determines you have violated Section 2(d)(i) and/or Section 2(d)(ii) and/or any non-competition or non-solicitation agreement that you have with any member of the Corporation Group, then, in addition to injunctive relief, damages, and all other equitable and legal rights and remedies:

(A)the PSUs shall be forfeited for no consideration on the earliest date on which you are first in violation of Section 2(d)(i) and/or
Section 2(d)(ii) or any non-competition or non-solicitation agreement that you have with any member of the Corporation Group; and

(B)upon the Corporation’s demand, you shall immediately deliver to the Corporation (I) a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of PSUs that vested and were settled in the form of Common Stock (for the avoidance of doubt, without reduction for any shares of Common Stock that may have been withheld to satisfy applicable withholding taxes) and (II) the gross amount of cash paid to you (for the avoidance of doubt, without reduction for amounts withheld to satisfy applicable withholding taxes) for any PSUs

that were settled in the form of cash, in each case in respect of any PSUs that vested within the twelve (12) month period of time immediately preceding the earliest date on which you are first in violation of Section 2(d)(i) and/or Section 2(d)(ii) or any non-competition or non-solicitation agreement that you have with any member of the Corporation Group. To the extent that you do not, as of the date of the Corporation’s demand for repayment, hold a number of shares of Common Stock sufficient to satisfy your obligation set forth in clause (I) above, you shall pay the Corporation an amount in cash equal to the result of (x) (i) the number shares required to be delivered by you to the Corporation pursuant to clause (I) above, less (ii) the number of shares actually delivered by you to the Corporation pursuant to clause (I), multiplied by (y) the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock as of the business day immediately preceding the date of the Corporation’s demand for repayment. You agree to deliver and execute such documents (including, if applicable, share certificates) as the Corporation may deem necessary to effect the repayment obligations referred to in this Section 2(d)(iii)(B).

(iv)You understand and agree that the remedies set forth in Section 2(d)(iii) shall not be the Corporation Group’s exclusive remedies in the event of a breach of the non-competition obligations set forth in Section 2(d)(i) and/or Section 2(d)(ii) or in any other applicable non-competition or non-solicitation agreement that you have with any member of the Corporation Group, and that the Corporation Group reserves all other rights and remedies available to it at law or in equity.

(e)Conditions on Vesting upon or following Termination of Employment. Your eligibility to vest in any of the PSUs upon or following the date of your termination of Employment shall be subject to (i) your compliance with the non-competition obligations in Section 2(d)(i) and/or Section 2(d)(ii) and/or any other applicable non-competition or non-solicitation agreement with any member of the Corporation Group and (ii) if required by any member of the Corporation Group at the time of your termination of Employment, your execution of a separation agreement and/or a general release of claims in favor of the Corporation and its subsidiaries and affiliates containing such provisions and in such form as required by the Corporation that becomes effective within sixty (60) days following the Date of Termination or such earlier date as the Corporation may require (but in no event later than the latest date for settlement under Section 4(a)). In the event a separation agreement and/or a release of claims is required by the Corporation Group and (A) (I) the PSUs vest upon the Date of Termination or (II) the Vesting Date falls within the period that you have to provide such release of claims, and (B) the period in which the PSUs must be settled pursuant to Section 4(a) spans two calendar years, settlement of the vested PSUs will be made in the second calendar year.

3.Rights to Common Stock. Prior to the delivery of shares of Common Stock to you pursuant to Section 4(a) (if applicable), you shall not have any rights in, or with respect to, any of the shares of Common Stock underlying the PSUs, including, but not limited to, any voting rights and the right to receive any dividends (or dividend equivalents) that may be paid or any distributions that may be made with respect to such Common Stock.

the Plan and legally applicable or deemed applicable to you (the “Tax-Related Items”) in the amount determined by the Corporation.

Common Stock subject to the PSUs, and the income and value of same, are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation, (v) the grant of the PSUs is exceptional, voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of PSUs, or benefits in lieu of PSUs, even if PSUs have been granted in the past, (vi) unless otherwise agreed with the Corporation, the PSUs and the shares of Common Stock subject to the PSUs, and the income and value of same, are not granted as consideration, or in connection with, the service you may provide as a director of a subsidiary of the Corporation, (vii) the future value of the underlying shares of Common Stock is unknown, indeterminable and cannot be predicted with certainty, (viii) no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from forfeiture or recoupment of the PSU resulting from the termination of your Employment or other service relationship (regardless of the reason for such termination and whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction where you are employed or the terms of your employment agreement, if any), (ix) you shall seek all necessary approvals under, make all required notifications under, and comply with all laws, rules, and regulations applicable to the ownership of the PSUs and, if applicable, shares of Common Stock, including currency and exchange laws, rules, and regulations, (x) neither the Corporation nor any of its subsidiaries or affiliates shall be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between your local currency and the US dollar that may affect the value of the PSUs or of any amounts due to you pursuant to settlement of the PSUs or the subsequent sale of any shares of Common Stock acquired upon settlement, (xi) the determination of the form of awards granted under the Plan is made by the Committee in its sole discretion, and (xii) the Corporation is not providing any tax, legal, or financial advice, nor is the Corporation making any recommendations regarding your participation in the Plan or your acquisition or sale of the underlying shares of Common Stock, and you should consult your own personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding your participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the PSUs.

By accepting this grant, you hereby unconditionally consent to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of your personal data as described in this document by and among, as applicable, your employing entity (the “Employer”) and the Corporation and the Corporation Group for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing any awards issued to you under the

Plan. You understand that the Corporation and your Employer may hold certain personal information about you, including, but not limited to, your name, home address, email address, telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, details of all PSUs or any other entitlement to shares of stock awarded, canceled, vested, unvested or outstanding in your favor (“Data”), for the purpose of implementing, administering and managing any grants issued to you under the Plan. You understand that Data may be transferred to any third parties, as may be selected by the Corporation, which are assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan and the fulfillment of this Agreement. You understand that the recipients of the Data may be located in the United States or elsewhere, and that the recipients’ country may have different data privacy laws and protections from your country. You understand that if you reside outside of the United States, you may request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Data by contacting your local human resources representative. You authorize the recipients, which may assist the Corporation (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 purposes of implementing, administering and managing grants under the Plan and the fulfillment of this Agreement. You understand the Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage grants under the Plan and this Agreement. You understand that if you reside outside of the United States, you may, at any time, view Data, request 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 your human resources representative. Further, you understand that your consent herein is being provided on a purely voluntary basis. If you do not consent, or if you later seek to revoke your consent, your Employment status or Service will not be affected; the only consequence of refusing or withdrawing your consent is that the Corporation may not be able to grant PSUs or other equity awards to you or administer or maintain such awards. Therefore, you understand that refusing or withdrawing your consent may affect your ability to participate in the Plan. For more information on the consequences of your refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, you understand that you may contact your local human resources representative.

(g)Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Plan constitute the entire agreement between the parties relating to the subject matter hereof, and any previous agreement or understanding between the parties with respect thereto is superseded by this Agreement and the Plan.

(h)Section 409A. The intent of the parties is that payments and benefits under this Agreement are exempt from or comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations and guidance issued thereunder (“Section 409A”), to the extent subject thereto, and accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement shall be interpreted and administered to be in compliance therewith or exempt therefrom, as applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or this Agreement, the Corporation reserves the right to revise this Agreement as it deems necessary or advisable, in its sole discretion and without your consent, to comply with Section 409A or to otherwise avoid imposition of any additional tax or income recognition under Section 409A prior to the actual payment of cash or shares of Common Stock pursuant to the PSUs. However, the Corporation makes no representation that the PSUs are not subject to Section 409A nor makes any undertaking to preclude Section 409A from applying to the PSUs. The Corporation shall not have any liability under the Plan or this Agreement for any taxes, penalties or interest due on amounts paid or payable pursuant to the Plan or this Agreement, including any taxes, penalties or interest imposed under Section 409A. For purposes of the Plan and this Agreement, to the extent the PSUs constitute “non-qualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A and necessary to avoid accelerated taxation and/or tax penalties under Section 409A, a termination of Employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of settlement of

any portion of the PSUs unless such termination constitutes a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A and, for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement, references to a “termination,” “termination of Employment” or similar terms shall mean “separation from service.” Each amount to be paid under this Agreement shall be construed as a separately identified payment for purposes of Section 409A. In addition, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if you are deemed on the Date of Termination to be a “specified employee” within the meaning of that term under Section 409A and you are subject to U.S. federal taxation, then, to the extent the settlement of the PSUs following such termination of Employment is considered the payment of non-qualified deferred compensation under Section 409A payable on account of a “separation from service” that is not exempt from Section 409A, such settlement shall be delayed until the date that is the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six-month period measured from the date of such “separation from service” or (ii) the date of your death.

(i)Acknowledgement. By electing to accept this Agreement, you acknowledge receipt of this Agreement and hereby confirm your understanding of the terms set forth in this Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Plan and this Agreement, the terms of the Plan shall control. The Corporation may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents (including, without limitation, information required to be delivered to you pursuant to applicable securities laws) related to current or future participation in the Plan by electronic means. You hereby consent to receive such documents by electronic delivery and agree to participate in the Plan through an online or electronic system established and maintained by the Corporation or a third party designated by the Corporation.

(j)Language. You acknowledge that you are proficient in the English language, or have consulted with an advisor who is proficient in the English language, so as to enable you to understand the provisions of this Agreement and the Plan. If you have received this Agreement or any other document related to the Plan translated into a language other than English, and the meaning of the translated version is different than the English version, the English version will control.

(k)Imposition of Other Requirements. The Corporation reserves the right to impose other requirements on your participation in the Plan, on the PSUs and on any shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Corporation determines it is necessary or advisable in order to comply with local law or to facilitate the administration of the Plan, to make any corrections or adjustments that it deems necessary or appropriate, and to require you to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing.

(l)Waiver. You acknowledge that a waiver by the Corporation of breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement, or of any subsequent breach by you or any other grantee.

(m)Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New Jersey without giving effect to conflict of laws principles, except to the extent superseded by federal law and as set forth in this Section 9(m). Provided that you primarily resided and worked in California during and in connection with your employment with the Corporation Group and at the time that you accepted this Agreement and participation in the Plan, (i) this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California; and (ii) Section 2(d)(ii) shall not apply with respect to services you render in California that do not involve your use or disclosure of the Corporation Group’s confidential or trade secret information.

(n)Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. Any litigation brought against a party to this Agreement shall be brought in any U.S. federal or state court located in the State of New Jersey and each of the parties submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts for the purpose of any such litigation; provided, that, a final judgment in any such litigation shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other matter provided by law. Each party agrees not to assert (A) any objection which it may have to venue in U.S. federal or state court located in the State of New Jersey, (B) any claim that litigation has been brought in an inconvenient forum and (C) any claim that such court does not have jurisdiction with respect to such litigation. Each party waives any right to a trial by jury with respect to any matters arising under this Agreement or any other awards granted under the Plan.
