									[NAME] [TITLE]

My signature below (or other acceptance of this Award, electronic or otherwise) indicates that I understand and agree that this Award is 1) subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including the Committee Resolutions and the attached Appendix A and Appendix B) and of the Plan, 2) not considered salary, nor is it a promise for future grants of Performance Shares, 3) not a term or condition of my employment with the Company (or one of its Affiliates), and 4) made at the sole discretion of the Company.

APPENDIX A

TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF PERFORMANCE SHARES

1. Grant of Performance Shares. The Company hereby grants to the Employee as a separate incentive in connection with his or her employment with the Company or an Affiliate and is not in lieu of any salary or other compensation for his or her services to the Company or an Affiliate, an Award with respect to the number of Performance Shares set forth on page 1 of this Agreement, subject to all the terms and conditions in this Agreement and the Plan.

2. Company’s Obligation to Pay. Unless and until a Performance Share has vested in accordance with the terms hereof, the Employee will have no right to payment of a Share with respect to the Performance Share. Prior to actual payment of any Shares pursuant to vested Performance Shares, each Performance Share represents an unsecured obligation of the Company, payable (if at all) only from the general assets of the Company. No Shares shall be issued until after the Performance Shares have vested in accordance with the terms hereof and shall be issued in accordance with the settlement terms hereof. Notwithstanding Section 9.6 of the Plan, the Performance Shares will only be settled, if at all, in Shares, provided that to the extent a fractional share is earned, the number of Shares paid shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number and no fractional Share shall be issued.

3. Vesting of Performance Shares and Issuance of Shares.

(a) Subject to paragraphs 4 and 5, the Performance Shares subject to this Agreement will vest (as to the number of Performance Shares determined by the Committee based on the extent to which the Performance Goals have been achieved) on the dates described on the first page of this Agreement (each, a “Vesting Date”), but in each case, only if the Employee has been continuously employed by, or providing consulting services to, the Company or one of its Affiliates from the date of this Award until the applicable Vesting Date of the Performance Shares. Subject to paragraphs 4 and 5, if the Employee has had a Termination of Service (as described below) prior to such date(s), the Award shall terminate as set forth in paragraph 5.

(b) Upon vesting, one Share shall be issued for each Performance Share that vests, subject to the terms and provisions of the Plan and this Agreement. Each tranche of Performance Shares that vests and settles, if any, shall be deemed a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A (defined below). Subject to paragraph 4, any Performance Shares that vest under this Agreement shall be settled as soon as practicable after the applicable Vesting Date, but in no event later than ninety (90) calendar days thereafter.

(c) If the Committee, in its discretion, accelerates the vesting of the balance, or some lesser portion of the balance, of the Performance Shares (or acceleration occurs pursuant to Section 12.2 of the Plan), the payment of such accelerated Performance Shares nevertheless shall be made at the same time or times as if such Performance Shares had vested in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth on the first page of this Agreement (whether or not the Employee remains employed by the Company or by one of its Affiliates as of such date(s)). This Section 3(c) shall only apply to Stock Awards that are not exempt from Section 409A and only to the extent required to avoid taxation under Section 409A.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event of the issuance of all or a portion of the Performance Shares upon Employee’s separation from service if (i) the Employee is subject to U.S. income tax, and (ii) the Employee is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A at the time of such separation from service, then any such Performance Shares will instead be paid on the date that is six (6) months and one (1) day following the date of the Employee’s separation from service, unless the Employee dies following his or her separation from service prior to such time, in which case, the Performance Shares will be paid to the Employee’s estate (or beneficiary) upon his or her death, subject to paragraph 6. For purposes of this Agreement, “Section 409A” means Section 409A of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and any final Treasury Regulations and other Internal Revenue Service guidance thereunder, as each may be amended from time to time (“Section 409A”). Further, in the event a ninety (90) day payment period described in paragraph 3(b) or paragraph 4 crosses two calendar years, the applicable payment will be made in the second calendar year after satisfaction of all of the conditions necessary for payment. This

paragraph 3(d) shall only apply to Stock Awards that are not exempt from Section 409A and only to the extent necessary to avoid taxation under Section 409A.

(e) It is the intent of this Agreement to comply with, or be exempt from, the requirements of Section 409A so that none of the Performance Shares granted under this Agreement or the Shares issued in payment thereof will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities herein will be interpreted to so comply.

(f) No fractional Shares shall be issued under this Agreement. To the extent a fractional share is earned, the number of Shares paid shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number and no fractional Share shall be issued.

4. Vesting Acceleration Events.

(a) In the event that a Company agreement or plan provides for full or partial vesting of the Performance Shares upon Employee’s “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A), any unvested Performance Shares granted pursuant to this Agreement that vest pursuant to such agreement or plan shall be settled to the extent that the Performance Goals have been achieved and certified by the Committee on the Certification Date (or at target if required by such agreement or plan) (i) as soon as practicable, but in no event later than ninety (90) days, after such separation or (ii) at such other time expressly provided for by such agreement or plan, in each case, subject to Employee (or his beneficiaries in the case of death) timely signing any release of claims required by such Company agreement or plan after such separation and not revoking such release during any applicable revocation period.

(b) In the event of the Employee’s death or Termination of Service (or for U.S. taxpayers “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A) due to Disability (“Disability Termination”), in each case, after the end of the applicable performance period, the unvested Performance Shares granted pursuant to this Agreement shall automatically and with no exercise of discretion by the Committee become fully vested, and shall be settled, as soon as practicable but in no event later than ninety (90) days after the Employee’s death or Disability Termination, in each case, to the extent that the Performance Goals have been achieved and certified by the Committee on the Certification Date.

(c) Except as would result in taxation under Section 409A, a portion of the unvested Performance Shares granted pursuant to this Agreement automatically and with no exercise of discretion by the Committee shall become fully vested, and shall be settled, and applicable taxes shall be withheld by the Company or its designated Affiliate in accordance with paragraph 6 at the following time: (i) if the Performance Goals have been achieved before the Employee becomes eligible for Retirement (as defined below), on the later of the date the Employee becomes eligible for Retirement or November 15th of the year in which the Employee becomes eligible for Retirement; or (ii) if the Employee becomes eligible for Retirement before the Performance Goals are achieved, on the later of the date the Performance Goals are achieved or November 15th of the year in which the Performance Goals are achieved. The portion of the unvested Performance Shares that vests and is settled in accordance with the preceding sentence shall have an aggregate market value sufficient to pay any taxes required to be withheld by the Company (or an Affiliate) solely as a result of (a) the Employee’s becoming eligible to receive Shares upon Retirement pursuant to paragraph 5(d), and (b) the vesting and settlement of such portion of the unvested Performance Shares.

(d) In the event of the Employee’s Retirement (as defined below) after the end of the applicable performance period, the unvested Performance Shares granted pursuant to this Agreement automatically and with no exercise of discretion by the Committee shall become fully vested, and shall be settled, as soon as practicable but in no event later than ninety (90) days after the Employee’s Retirement, to the extent that the Performance Goals have been achieved and certified by the Committee on the Certification Date.

(e) For purposes of this Agreement, “Retirement” shall mean the Employee’s Termination of Service (or for U.S. taxpayers “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A) for any reason (other than due to the Employee’s misconduct as determined by the Company in its sole discretion) after the Employee has attained age 60 and completed at least five (5) years of continuous service as an Employee of the Company or an Affiliate.

5. Termination of Service. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement and except as set forth in paragraph 4, the balance of the Performance Shares that have not vested will be forfeited and cancelled automatically at the time of the Employee’s Termination of Service. For purposes of this Agreement, Termination of Service shall have the meaning set forth in the Plan and be determined by reference to the Employee’s service without reference to any other agreement, written or oral, including the Employee’s contract of employment (if any). Thus, in the event of the Employee’s Termination of Service (whether or not in breach of local labor laws), unless otherwise expressly provided for under this Agreement, the Employee’s right to vest in the Performance Shares under the Plan, if any, will terminate effective at the time of the Employee’s Termination of Service; the Committee shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when the Employee has incurred a Termination of Service.

6. Withholding Taxes. [ALTERNATIVE 1]: As a condition to the grant and vesting of this Award and as further set forth in Sections 10.7 and 10.8 of the Plan, the Employee hereby agrees to make adequate provision for the satisfaction of (and will indemnify the Company, the Employer and any other Affiliate) for the amount of any income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, or any other required deductions or payments related to the Employee’s participation in the Plan and legally payable by the Employee, if any, including any Tax Obligations (“Tax-Related Items”) which arise upon the grant or vesting of the Performance Shares under this Agreement, ownership or disposition of Shares, receipt of dividends, if any, or otherwise in connection with the Performance Shares or the Shares. Regardless of any action the Company or the Employee’s employer (the “Employer”) takes with respect to any or all Tax-Related Items, the Employee acknowledges and agrees that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by the Employee is and remains the Employee’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the Employer. The Employee further acknowledges and agrees that the Employee is also solely responsible for filing all relevant documentation that may be required of the Employee in relation to his or her participation in the Plan or any Tax-Related Items (other than filings or documentation that is the specific obligation of the Company, the Employer or any Affiliate pursuant to Applicable Laws), such as but not limited to personal income tax returns or any reporting statements in relation to the grant, holding, vesting of the Performance Shares, the holding of Shares or any bank or brokerage account, the subsequent sale of Shares, and the receipt of dividends, if any. The Employee further acknowledges that the Company and the Employer (a) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Performance Shares, including the grant, holding, or vesting of the Performance Shares, the holding or subsequent sale of Shares acquired under the Plan and the receipt of dividends, if any; and (b) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the Performance Shares or any aspect of these Performance Shares to reduce or eliminate the Employee’s liability for Tax-Related Items, or achieve any particular tax result. The Employee also understands that Applicable Laws may require varying Share or Performance Share valuation methods for purposes of calculating Tax-Related Items, and the Company assumes no responsibility or liability in relation to any such valuation or for any calculation or reporting of income or Tax-Related Items that may be required of the Employee under applicable laws. Further, if the Employee has become subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction, the Employee acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) or other Affiliate may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.

Absent an election by Employee described below in this paragraph, a portion of the Shares scheduled to be issued pursuant to vested Performance Shares that have an aggregate fair market value sufficient to pay the Tax-Related Items shall be withheld to satisfy such Tax-Related Items. Furthermore, the Company will cooperate with Employee to enable Employee to have Shares withheld to cover applicable withholding up to the maximum statutory rates as permitted by applicable law (i) to the extent it does not result in adverse accounting or other consequences to the Company and (ii) subject to Employee timely providing the Company with any documentation necessary to effect withholding up to such maximum. The Company will only withhold whole Shares and therefore the Employee also authorizes deduction without notice from salary or other amounts payable to the Employee of cash in an amount sufficient to satisfy the Employer’s remaining tax

withholding obligation. Notwithstanding the previous two sentences, the Employee may elect to furnish to the Company written notice, no more than 30 days and no less than 5 days in advance of a scheduled Vesting Date (or other required withholding event), of his or her intent to satisfy the tax withholding requirement by remitting in cash or check the full amount of the tax withholding to the Company on the scheduled Vesting Date (or other required withholding event). In the event that the Employee provides such written notice and fails to satisfy the amounts required for the Tax-Related Items by the Vesting Date (or other required withholding event), the Company shall satisfy the tax withholding requirement pursuant to the first sentence of this paragraph.

If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding Shares, for tax purposes, the Employee is deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject to the Performance Shares, notwithstanding that a number of the Shares is held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of the Employee’s participation in the Plan. The Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Company may refuse to issue or deliver the Shares or the proceeds of the sale of Shares if the Employee fails to comply with his or her obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items. In addition, the Employee further agrees that any cross-border cash remittance made to transfer proceeds received upon the sale of Shares must be made through a locally authorized financial institution or registered foreign exchange agency and may require the Employee to provide to such entity certain information regarding the transaction.]

[ALTERNATIVE 2]: As a condition to the grant and vesting of this Award and as further set forth in Sections 10.7 and 10.8 of the Plan, the Employee hereby agrees to make adequate provision for the satisfaction of (and will indemnify the Company, the Employer and any other Affiliate) for the amount of any income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, or any other required deductions or payments related to the Employee’s participation in the Plan and legally payable by the Employee, if any, including any Tax Obligations (“Tax-Related Items”) which arise upon the grant or vesting of the Performance Shares under this Agreement, ownership or disposition of Shares, receipt of dividends, if any, or otherwise in connection with the Performance Shares or the Shares, whether by withholding, direct payment to the Company, or otherwise as determined by the Company in its sole discretion. Regardless of any action the Company or the Employee’s employer (the “Employer”) takes with respect to any or all Tax-Related Items, the Employee acknowledges and agrees that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by the Employee is and remains the Employee’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the Employer. The Employee further acknowledges and agrees that the Employee is also solely responsible for filing all relevant documentation that may be required of the Employee in relation to his or her participation in the Plan or any Tax-Related Items (other than filings or documentation that is the specific obligation of the Company, the Employer or any Affiliate pursuant to Applicable Laws), such as but not limited to personal income tax returns or any reporting statements in relation to the grant, holding, vesting of the Performance Shares, the holding of Shares or any bank or brokerage account, the subsequent sale of Shares, and the receipt of dividends, if any. The Employee further acknowledges that the Company and the Employer (a) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Performance Shares, including the grant, holding, or vesting of the Performance Shares, the holding or subsequent sale of Shares acquired under the Plan and the receipt of dividends, if any; and (b) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the Performance Shares or any aspect of these Performance Shares to reduce or eliminate the Employee’s liability for Tax-Related Items, or achieve any particular tax result. The Employee also understands that Applicable Laws may require varying Share or Performance Share valuation methods for purposes of calculating Tax-Related Items, and the Company assumes no responsibility or liability in relation to any such valuation or for any calculation or reporting of income or Tax-Related Items that may be required of the Employee under applicable laws. Further, if the Employee has become subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction, the Employee acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) or other Affiliate may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.

No payment will be made to the Employee (or his or her estate) in relation to these Performance Shares unless and until satisfactory arrangements (as determined by the Committee) have been made by the Employee with respect to the payment of any Tax-Related Items and any other obligations of the Company and/or the Employer with respect to the Performance Shares. In this regard, the Employee authorizes the Company and/or the Employer, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy the obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following, provided, however, that

notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the case of individuals subject to Section 16 of the U.S. Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, all Tax-Related Items shall only be satisfied by such procedure specifically approved by the Committee in resolutions:

(a) withholding from the Employee’s wages or other cash compensation paid to the Employee by the Company or the Employer; or

(b) withholding from proceeds of the sale of Shares acquired upon vesting of the Performance Shares, either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on the Employee’s behalf pursuant to this authorization); or

(d) surrendering already-owned Shares having a fair market value equal to the Tax-Related Items that have been held for such period of time to avoid adverse accounting consequences.

If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding Shares, for tax purposes, the Employee is, subject to Applicable Laws, deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject to the Performance Shares, notwithstanding that a number of the Shares is held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of the Employee’s participation in the Plan. The Employee shall pay to the Company or Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company may be required to withhold or account for as a result of the Employee’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by one or more of the means previously described in this paragraph 7. The Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Company may refuse to issue or deliver the Shares or the proceeds of the sale of Shares if the Employee fails to comply with his or her obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items. In addition, the Employee further agrees that any cross-border cash remittance made to transfer proceeds received upon the sale of Shares must be made through a locally authorized financial institution or registered foreign exchange agency and may require the Employee to provide to such entity certain information regarding the transaction.

It is the Company’s current practice to withhold a portion of the Shares scheduled to be issued pursuant to vested Performance Shares that have an aggregate market value sufficient to pay the Tax-Related Items. The Company will only withhold whole Shares and therefore the Employee also authorizes deduction without notice from salary or other amounts payable to the Employee of cash in an amount sufficient to satisfy the Employer’s remaining tax withholding obligation. Notwithstanding the previous two sentences, the Employee, if the Company in its sole discretion so agrees, may elect to furnish to the Company written notice, no more than 30 days and no less than 5 days in advance of a scheduled Vesting Date (or other required withholding event), of his or her intent to satisfy the tax withholding requirement by remitting the full amount of the tax withholding to the Company on the scheduled Vesting Date (or other required withholding event). In the event that the Employee provides such written notice and fails to satisfy the amounts required for the Tax-Related Items by the Vesting Date (or other required withholding event), the Company shall satisfy the tax withholding requirement pursuant to the first two sentences of this paragraph. However, the Company reserves the right to withhold for Tax-Related Items pursuant to any means set forth in this paragraph.

7. Vesting/Foreign Taxes Due. If the Employee is subject to tax in a country outside the U.S. (“Foreign Country”) and if pursuant to the tax rules in such Foreign Country, the Employee will be subject to tax prior to the date that the Employee is issued Shares pursuant to this Agreement, the Committee, in its discretion, may accelerate settlement of a portion of the Performance Shares (but only to the extent already earned and vested, including satisfaction of the Performance Goals) to the extent necessary to pay the foreign taxes due (and any applicable U.S. income taxes due as a result of the acceleration of settlement) but only if such acceleration does not result in adverse consequences under Section 409A (as permitted under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(xi)).

8. Beneficiary Designation. Any distribution or delivery to be made to the Employee under this Agreement will, if the Employee is then deceased, be made to the Employee's designated beneficiary to the extent such designation is valid under applicable law, or if no such beneficiary survives the Employee or no beneficiary is designated, the person or persons entitled to such distribution or delivery under the Employee's will or, to the executor of his or her estate. In order to be effective, a beneficiary designation must be made by

the Employee in a form and manner acceptable to the Company and permitted by the Company. Any transferee must furnish the Company with (a) written notice of his or her status as transferee, and (b) evidence satisfactory to the Company to establish the validity of the transfer and compliance with any laws or regulations pertaining to said transfer.

9. Conditions to Issuance of Shares. The Shares deliverable to the Employee on the applicable settlement date may be either previously authorized but unissued Shares or issued Shares that have been reacquired by the Company. The Company shall not be required to issue any Shares hereunder so long as the Company reasonably anticipates that such issuance will violate Federal securities law, foreign securities law or other Applicable Laws; provided however, that in such event the Company shall issue such Shares at the earliest possible date at which the Company reasonably anticipates that the issuance of the shares will not cause such violation. For purposes of the previous sentence, any issuance of Shares that would cause inclusion in gross income or the application of any penalty provision or other provision of the Internal Revenue Code or foreign tax law shall not be treated as a violation of Applicable Laws. Furthermore, the Company retains sole discretion to determine if and when it is appropriate to undertake any regulatory filing or other administrative steps in order to avoid such violation. The Company is under no obligation to undertake any such filing or other steps that would not otherwise be required except in relation to the Plan and grants thereunder and shall not assume any liability due to the failure to complete such filing or other steps.

10. Rights as Stockholder. Neither the Employee nor any person claiming under or through the Employee will have any of the rights or privileges of a stockholder of the Company in respect of any Performance Share unless and until Shares have been issued in accordance with this Agreement, recorded on the records of the Company or its transfer agents or registrars, and delivered to the Employee. Except as provided in paragraph 11, after such issuance, recordation, and delivery, the Employee will have all the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to voting such Shares and receipt of dividends and distributions on such Shares.

11. Adjustments. The Award is subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 4.3 of the Plan.

12. Nature of Grant. In accepting the grant of Performance Shares, the Employee acknowledges that:

(a)the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, it is discretionary in nature and it may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time;

(b)the grant of the Performance Shares is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of Performance Shares, or benefits in lieu of Performance Shares, even if Performance Shares have been granted repeatedly in the past, and all decisions with respect to future grants of Stock Awards or other Awards, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company;

(c)all decisions with respect to future Performance Share grants, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company;

(d)the Employee’s participation in the Plan is voluntary participating in the Plan;

(e)the Performance Shares and the Shares subject to the Performance Shares are extraordinary items that do not constitute regular compensation for services rendered to the Company or the Employer, and that are outside the scope of the Employee’s employment contract, if any;

(f)the Performance Shares and the Shares subject to the Performance Shares are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation;

(g)the Performance Shares and the Shares subject to the Performance Shares are not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purposes, including, but not limited to, calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar payments and in no event should be considered as compensation for, or relating in any way to, past services for the Company or the Employer;

(h)(j) the future value of the Shares underlying the Performance Shares is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty;

(i)(k) neither the Company, nor any Affiliate is responsible for any foreign exchange fluctuation between local currency and the United States Dollar (or the selection by the Company or an Affiliate in its sole discretion of an applicable foreign currency exchange rate) that may affect the value of the Performance Shares (or the calculation of income or Tax-Related Items thereunder);

(j)(l) in consideration of the grant of the Performance Shares, no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from forfeiture of the Performance Shares resulting from the Employee’s Termination of Service (for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of local labor laws) and the Employee irrevocably releases the Employer from any such claim that may arise; if, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen, the Employee shall be deemed irrevocably to have waived his or her entitlement to pursue such claim; and

(k)(m) the Performance Shares and the benefits under the Plan, if any, will not automatically transfer to another company in the case of a merger, take-over or transfer of liability.

13. No Advice Regarding Grant. The Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding the Employee’s participation in the Plan, or his or her acquisition or sale of the underlying Shares. The Employee is hereby advised to consult with his or her own personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding the Employee’s participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan.

14. Data Privacy. The Employee hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of the Employee’s Personal Data (as described below) by and among, as applicable, the Company and any Subsidiary or Affiliate or third parties as may be selected by the Company, for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Employee’s participation in the Plan. The Employee understands that refusal or withdrawal of consent will affect the Employee’s ability to participate in the Plan; without providing consent, the Employee will not be able to participate in the Plan or realize benefits (if any) from the Performance Shares.

The Employee understands that the Company and any Subsidiary or Affiliate or designated third parties may hold certain personal information about the Employee, including, but not limited to, the Employee’s name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any Shares or directorships held in the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate, details of all Performance Shares or any other entitlement to Shares awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in the Employee’s favor (“Personal Data”). The Employee understands that Personal Data may be transferred to any Subsidiary or Affiliate or third parties assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan, that these recipients may be located in the United States, the Employee’s country, or elsewhere, and that the recipient’s country may have different data privacy laws and protections than the Employee’s country. In particular, the Company may transfer Personal Data to the broker or stock plan administrator assisting with the Plan, to its legal counsel and tax/accounting advisor, and to the Subsidiary or Affiliate that is the Employee’s employer and its payroll provider.

The Employee should also refer to the Gap Inc. Employee Privacy Policy (which is available to the Employee separately and may be updated from time to time) for more information regarding the collection, use, storage, and transfer of the Employee’s Personal Data.

15. Plan Governs. This Agreement is subject to all the terms and provisions of the Plan. In the event of a conflict between one or more provisions of this Agreement and one or more provisions of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan will govern. Terms used in this Agreement that are not defined in this Agreement will have the meaning set forth in the Plan.

16. Committee Authority. The Committee will have the power to interpret the Plan and this Agreement and to adopt such rules for the administration, interpretation and application of the Plan as are consistent therewith and to interpret or revoke any such rules (including, but not limited to, the determination of whether or not any portion of the Performance Share has vested). All actions taken and all interpretations and determinations made by the Committee in good faith will be final and binding upon the Employee, the Company and all other interested persons. No member of the Committee will be personally liable for any action, determination or interpretation made in good faith with respect to the Plan or this Agreement.

17. No Right to Employment or Continued Employment. The Employee understands and agrees that the Stock Awards and this Agreement do not constitute or create any contract of employment or right to further employment with the Employer or any Affiliate and shall not impact in any way the right of the Employer to terminate or change the terms of the employment of the Employee at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without good cause, subject to applicable local law. The Employee understands and agrees that unless contrary to applicable local law or there is an employment contract in place providing otherwise, his or her employment is "at-will" and that either the Employer or the Employee may terminate the Employee's employment at any time and for any reason subject to applicable local law. The Employee also understands and agrees that his or her "at-will" status (if applicable) can only be changed by an express written contract signed by an authorized officer of the Company and the Employee if the Employee’s employer is the Company.

This Appendix B includes special terms and conditions applicable to the Employee if the Employee resides or works in or moves to or otherwise becomes subject to the laws or company policies of one of the countries listed below.
