UNDER THE CITRIX SYSTEMS, INC.
SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED 2014 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN
Name of Awardee: ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
Award Date: October 6, 2021
Number of Restricted Stock Units: 177,292
Pursuant to the Citrix Systems, Inc. Second Amended and Restated 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (as amended from time to time, the “Plan”), Citrix Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) hereby grants an Award of Restricted Stock Units to the awardee named above (“Awardee”). Upon acceptance of this Global Restricted Stock Unit Agreement, including any additional terms and conditions set forth in any appendix for Awardee’s country (the “Appendix” and together with the Global Restricted Stock Unit Agreement, this “Award Agreement”), Awardee shall receive the number of Restricted Stock Units specified above, subject to the restrictions and conditions set forth in this Award Agreement and in the Plan. Capitalized terms in this Award Agreement shall have the meaning specified in the Plan, unless a different meaning is specified herein.
1.Vesting. No portion of this Award may be settled until such portion shall have vested. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Restricted Stock Units vest in twelve monthly installments, with one-twelfth vesting as of September 1, 2021 and the remaining installments vesting on each monthly anniversary thereof (each, a “Vesting Date”), provided in each case that Awardee is then, and since the Award Date has continuously been, employed by the Company or one of its Affiliates or in service as a member of the Board of Directors. Subject to the terms of the Employment Agreement by and between the Awardee and the Company, dated as of October 5, 2021 (the “Employment Agreement”), if Awardee is not employed by the Company or one of its Affiliates and not in service as a member of the Board of Directors on a Vesting Date, Awardee will not earn or be entitled to any pro-rated vesting for any portion of time before a Vesting Date during which Awardee was employed or otherwise in service, nor will Awardee be entitled to any compensation for lost vesting. If the vesting schedule results in fractional shares, the number of shares shall be rounded up on the first Vesting Date and rounded up or down on the subsequent Vesting Dates, as necessary.
2.Issuance of Stock.
(a) On a Vesting Date, each vested Restricted Stock Unit entitles Awardee to receive one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Stock”).
(b) As soon as practicable after the 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), Awardee’s name shall be entered as the stockholder of record on the books and records of the Company with respect to the shares of Stock underlying the vested Restricted Stock Units, upon compliance to the satisfaction of the Committee with all requirements under applicable laws or regulations in connection with such issuance and with the requirements hereof and of the Plan. The determination of the Committee as to such compliance shall be final and binding on Awardee.
(c) Until such time as shares of Stock have been issued to Awardee pursuant to Section 2(b) above, Awardee shall not have any rights as a holder of the shares of Stock underlying this Award, including but not limited to voting rights.
(d) If on any date the Company shall pay any cash dividend on shares of Stock, the Committee shall, in its discretion, either:
(i) make a proportionate award (based on the dividend paid) of Dividend Equivalent Rights under the Plan with respect to the unvested Restricted Stock Units hereunder; or
1
(ii) take necessary action such that the number of unvested Restricted Stock Units shall, as of such date, be increased by an amount determined by the following formula:
W = (X multiplied by Y) divided by Z, where:
W = the number of additional Restricted Stock Units to be credited to Awardee on such dividend payment date;
X = the aggregate number of Restricted Stock Units (whether vested or unvested) credited to Awardee as of the record date of the dividend;
Y = the cash dividend per share amount; and
Z = the Fair Market Value per share of Stock (as determined under the Plan) on the dividend payment date.
In the case of a dividend paid on Stock in the form of Stock, including without limitation a distribution of Stock by reason of a stock dividend, stock split or otherwise, Dividend Equivalent Rights shall be awarded in a number, or the number of unvested Restricted Stock Units shall be increased by a number, equal to the product of (A) the aggregate number of Restricted Stock Units that have been awarded to Awardee through the related dividend record date, and (B) the number of shares of Stock (including any fraction thereof) payable as dividend on one share of Stock.
In the case of a dividend payable in property other than shares of Stock or cash, the per share of Stock value of such dividend shall be determined in good faith by the Board and shall be converted to Dividend Equivalent Rights or additional Restricted Stock Units based on the formula above.
In any of the above cases, the Dividend Equivalent Rights or additional Restricted Stock Units, as applicable, shall be subject to the vesting conditions and restrictions of this Award Agreement in the same manner as the Restricted Stock Units and for so long as the Restricted Stock Units granted pursuant to this Award Agreement to which they relate remain subject to such vesting conditions and restrictions; provided that, notwithstanding Section 1 above, any fractional share resulting from the vesting of Dividend Equivalent Rights or additional Restricted Stock Units shall not be rounded up on any Vesting Date, and shall vest only when the aggregate cumulative fractional shares have reached one whole share, unless such fractional share results from the vesting of Dividend Equivalent Rights or additional Restricted Stock Units on the last Vesting Date, in which case such fractional share shall be rounded up to next whole share. If and when the corresponding unvested Restricted Stock Units are forfeited, the Dividend Equivalent Rights or additional Restricted Stock Units shall be promptly forfeited as well.
3.Termination of Employment. Subject to the terms of the Employment Agreement, including without limitation, the Awardee’s right to accelerated vesting of the Restricted Stock Units under certain circumstances as set forth in the Employment Agreement, if Awardee’s employment with the Company and its Affiliates is voluntarily or involuntarily terminated (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 Awardee is employed or the terms of Awardee’s employment or other service agreement, if any), Awardee’s right in any Restricted Stock Units that are not vested shall automatically terminate as of the date of termination of Awardee's employment (the “Termination Date”). Such Restricted Stock Units shall be canceled and shall be of no further force and effect as of the Termination Date. The Committee or any of its delegates shall have the discretion to determine when the Termination Date occurs for purposes of Awardee's Restricted Stock Units (including whether Awardee may still be considered to be employed while on a leave of absence).
Notwithstanding the above, if Awardee’s employment with the Company and its Affiliates or service as a member of the Board of Directors is terminated on account of death or Disability (as defined below), any Restricted Stock Units that are not vested shall automatically vest in full as of the date that Awardee’s employment or service as a member of the Board of Directors, as applicable, terminates by reason of
2
death or Disability. For purposes hereof, “Disability” shall have the meaning in the Employment Agreement.
Further, notwithstanding the above and subject to the terms of any employment, executive or similar agreement, if Awardee’s employment with the Company and its Affiliates is terminated by the Company or its Affiliates for any reason other than for Cause, as determined by the Company, and such Awardee has served as an employee of the Company and its Affiliates for 20 years or greater as of the date of Awardee’s termination, subject to Awardee signing a separation and release agreement in a form acceptable to the Company, and such agreement becoming irrevocable, any Restricted Stock Units that would have become vested within the 12-month period following the Termination Date shall automatically vest in full as of the date the Awardee’s separation and release agreement becomes irrevocable.
For purposes hereof, “Cause” shall have the meaning in the Employment Agreement.
In the event of any termination, the Company, as soon as practicable following the Termination Date (but in no event later than two and one-half months after the end of the year in which the Termination Date occurs), shall issue shares of Stock to Awardee (or Awardee’s designated beneficiary, estate executor or legal heirs, as applicable, in the event of Awardee’s death) with respect to any Restricted Stock Units which, as of the Termination Date, have vested as set forth herein but for which shares of Stock had not yet been issued to Awardee.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the provisions relating to the treatment of Restricted Stock Units in the case of the termination of Awardee’s employment, including any rights to acceleration, that are set forth in the Employment Agreement shall apply to this Award to the extent applicable.
4.Incorporation of Plan. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Award shall be subject to and governed by all the terms and conditions of the Plan and the Employment Agreement.
5.Transferability. This Award Agreement and the Award are personal to Awardee, non-assignable and not transferable in any manner, by operation of law or otherwise, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. If Awardee is a U.S. employee (as determined by the Committee or any of its delegatees in its, his or her sole discretion), Awardee may be permitted to designate a beneficiary with respect to the shares of Stock to be issued upon vesting of the Award.
6.Responsibility for Taxes. Regardless of any action the Company or, if different, Awardee’s employer (the “Employer”) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to Awardee’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to Awardee (“Tax-Related Items”), Awardee acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items is and remains his or her responsibility and that such liability may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the Employer. Awardee further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (a) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting or settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, the issuance of shares of Stock upon settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, the subsequent sale of shares of Stock and the receipt of any dividends and/or any Dividend Equivalent Rights; and (b) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units to reduce or eliminate Awardee’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if Awardee becomes subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction, Awardee acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.
Awardee’s Tax-Related Items subject to a withholding obligation by the Company and/or the Employer (or any other Affiliates) shall be satisfied through a net issuance of shares. The Company shall withhold from shares of Stock to be issued to Awardee upon vesting/settlement of the Restricted Stock Units a number of shares of Stock with an aggregate Fair Market Value that would satisfy the withholding obligations for Tax-Related Items due. Alternatively, or in addition, the Company or the Employer may decide in their sole and absolute discretion to satisfy their withholding obligations, if any, for Tax-Related
3
Items by one or a combination of the following: (i) withholding from proceeds of the sale of shares of Stock acquired upon vesting/settlement of the Restricted Stock Units either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on Awardee’s behalf pursuant to this authorization without further consent); or (ii) in any other way set forth in Section 15 of the Plan; provided, however, that if Awardee is a Section 16 officer of the Company under the Exchange Act, then the Company will satisfy any withholding obligation only through a net share issuance of shares, unless the use of such withholding method is problematic under applicable tax or securities law or has materially adverse accounting consequences, in which case the obligation for Tax-Related Items may be satisfied by method (i) or (ii) above, or a combination thereof.
The Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering statutory withholding rates or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum rates applicable in Awardee’s jurisdiction. In the event of over-withholding, Awardee may receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash (with no entitlement to the equivalent in Stock), or if not refunded, Awardee may seek a refund from the local tax authorities. In the event of under-withholding, Awardee may be required to pay any additional Tax-Related Items directly to the applicable tax authority or to the Company and/or the Employer. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by a net share issuance of shares, for tax purposes, Awardee is deemed to have been issued the full number of shares of Stock subject to the vested Restricted Stock Units, notwithstanding that a number of shares is held back solely for purposes of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of any aspect of Awardee’s participation in the Plan.
Finally, Awardee 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 Awardee’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to issue or deliver the shares of Stock or the proceeds of the sale of shares of Stock, if Awardee fails to comply with Awardee’s obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.
7.No Advice Regarding Grant. The Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding Awardee’s participation in the Plan, or Awardee’s acquisition or sale of the shares of Stock. Awardee acknowledges that Awardee should consult with his or her own personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding his or her participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan.
8.Data Privacy. In accepting the Restricted Stock Units, Awardee explicitly, voluntarily and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of Awardee’s personal data as described in this Award Agreement and any other grant materials by an and among, as applicable, the Company, the Employer and any other Affiliate for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing Awardee’s participation in the Plan.
Awardee understands that the Company, the Employer and other Affiliates hold certain personal information about Awardee, including, but not limited to, Awardee’s name, home address, email address and telephone number, date of birth, social security number, passport or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, or any shares held in the Company, and details of all awards or other entitlement to shares awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested, or outstanding in Awardee’s favor (“Data”), for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing Awardee’s participation in the Plan.
Awardee further understands that the Company, the Employer and/or other Affiliates will transfer Data among themselves as necessary for the exclusive purposes of implementation, administration and management of Awardee’s participation in the Plan, and that the Company, the Employer and/or other Affiliates may each further transfer Data to Fidelity Stock Plan Services, LLC and certain of its affiliates or such other third party (“Data Recipients”), which are assisting the Company (or may assist the Company in the future) with the implementation, administration, and management of the Plan.
Awardee understands that the Data Recipients are located in the United States, and that the United States may have different data privacy laws and protections than Awardee’s country. Awardee understands that, if Awardee resides outside the United States, Awardee may request a list with the names and addresses of Data Recipients by contacting in writing Awardee’s local human resources
4
representative. Awardee authorizes the Data Recipients to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer Data, in electronic or other form, for the purposes of implementing, administering, and managing Awardee’s participation in the Plan. Awardee understands that Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage Awardee’s participation in the Plan.
Awardee understands that, if Awardee resides outside the United States, Awardee may, at any time, view Data, request additional information about the storage and processing of Data, require any necessary amendments to Data to make the information contained therein factually accurate, or refuse or withdraw the consents herein, in any case without cost, by contacting in writing Awardee’s local human resources representative.
Further, Awardee understands that Awardee is providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis. If Awardee does not consent, or if Awardee later seeks to revoke the consents, Awardee’s employment with the Employer will not be affected; the only consequence of refusing or withdrawing the consents is that the Company would not be able to grant Restricted Stock Units or other equity awards to Awardee or administer or maintain such awards. Therefore, Awardee understands that refusing or withdrawing the consents may affect Awardee’s ability to participate in the Plan. For more information on the consequences of Awardee’s refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, Awardee understands that Awardee may contact in writing Awardee’s local human resources representative.
Upon request of the Company or the Employer, Awardee agrees to provide a separate executed data privacy consent form (or any other agreements or consents that may be required by the Company and/or the Employer) that the Company and/or the Employer may deem necessary to obtain from Awardee for the purpose of administering Awardee’s participation in the Plan in compliance with the data privacy laws in Awardee’s country, either now or in the future. Awardee understands and agrees that Awardee will not be able to participate in the Plan if Awardee fails to provide any such consent or agreement requested by the Company and/or the Employer.

17.▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Restrictions/Market Abuse Laws. Awardee acknowledges that, depending on Awardee’s country or broker’s country, or the country in which Stock is listed, Awardee may be subject to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ restrictions and/or market abuse laws in applicable jurisdictions, which may affect his or her ability to accept, acquire, sell or attempt to sell, or otherwise dispose of the shares of Stock, rights to shares of Stock (e.g., Restricted Stock Units) or rights linked to the value of Stock, during such times as Awardee is considered to have “inside information” regarding the Company (as defined by the laws or regulations in applicable jurisdictions, including the United States and Awardee’s country). Local ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ laws and regulations may prohibit the cancellation or amendment of orders Awardee placed before possessing inside information. Furthermore, Awardee may be prohibited from (i) disclosing insider information to any third party, including fellow employees (other than on a “need to know” basis) and (ii) “tipping” third parties or causing them to otherwise buy or sell Company securities. Any restrictions under these laws or regulations are separate from and in addition to any restrictions that
7
may be imposed under any applicable Company ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ policy. Awardee acknowledges that it is Awardee’s responsibility to comply with any applicable restrictions, and Awardee should speak to his or her personal advisor on this matter.
18.Foreign Asset/Account Reporting Requirements. Awardee acknowledges that there may be certain foreign asset and/or account reporting requirements which may affect Awardee’s ability to acquire or hold shares of Stock acquired under the Plan (or cash received from participating in the Plan) in a brokerage or bank account outside of Awardee’s country. Awardee may be required to report such accounts, assets or transactions to the tax or other authorities in his or her country. Awardee may also be required to repatriate sale proceeds or other funds received as a result of participating in the Plan to Awardee’s country through a designated bank or broker within a certain time after receipt. Awardee acknowledges that it is his or her responsibility to be compliant with such regulations and Awardee should speak to his or her personal advisor on this matter.
19.Waiver. Awardee acknowledges that a waiver by the Company of breach of any provision of this Award Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other provision of this Award Agreement, or of any subsequent breach by Awardee or any other awardee.
