Jurisdiction Specific Country Terms

The following Jurisdiction Specific Terms include additional terms and conditions that govern the Awards granted to users that are citizens of, or residing in, the countries listed bellow.

Algeria

In Algeria, a Participant's RSUs may only be paid in cash, through local payroll (reduced by any Tax-Related Items and/or fees) and do not grant any right for the Participant to receive shares. The Company will exercise due diligence to meet the above requirements, however, in cases where the Company finds that it is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons, the Awards can be settled in shares of Common Stock.

Exchange Control Notice. The Participant understands that even though he or she only receives a cash payment upon vesting of RSUs, certain exchange control requirements may still apply. Any cash payment received by the Participant upon settlement of RSUs must be repatriated to Algeria. Any exchange control obligations arising out of the Participant's participation in the Plan should be discussed with the Participant's personal legal advisor.

Angola

In Angola, a Participant's RSUs may only be paid in cash, through local payroll (reduced by any Tax-Related Items and/or fees) and do not grant any right for the Participant to receive shares. The Company will exercise due diligence to meet the above requirements, however, in cases where the Company finds that it is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons, the Awards can be settled in shares of Common Stock.

Securities Law Notification. RSUs are a private offer that can only be accepted by a service provider of the parent company or its subsidiaries. In accordance with the securities laws of Angola (Law No. 22/15, of August 31, 2015), this offer does not constitute a public offering of securities and is not subject to prospectus or registration requirements.

Exchange Control Notification. Foreign exchange residents of Angola must apply to the Angolan Central Bank prior to (i) acquiring securities of a foreign company and (ii) opening or maintaining a foreign bank account or brokerage account related to such securities or cash amounts realized under the Plan.

The Participant is solely responsible for complying with the applicable exchange controls in Angola. Angola has complex exchange control rules, and they are subject to change. For compliance with applicable requirements, the Participant should consult a personal legal advisor.

Argentina

Awards. In accepting the grant of the Award, the Participant acknowledges and agrees that the grant of the Award is made by the Company (not the Employer) in its sole discretion and that the value of any Award acquired under the Plan shall not constitute salary or wages for any purpose under Argentine labor law, including the calculation of (i) any labor benefits including, but not limited to, vacation pay, thirteenth salary, compensation in lieu of notice, annual bonus, disability, and leave of absence payments, or (ii) any termination or severance indemnities.

If any benefits under the Plan are considered for purposes of calculating any termination or severance indemnities, the Participant acknowledges and agrees that such benefits shall not accrue more frequently than on an annual basis.

Compliance with Securities Law. The Awards are not publicly offered or listed on any stock exchange in Argentina. In addition, the offering material related to the Awards, may be utilized in connection with any general offering to the public in Argentina. Argentine residents who acquire Awards under the Plan do so according to the terms of a private offering made from outside Argentina.

Tax Withholding. If you are an Argentine tax resident, you must report any Shares acquired under the Plan and held by you in a foreign bank account on December 31st of each year on your annual tax return for that year.

Australia

Australian Offer Document. The grant of the RSUs is intended to comply with the provisions of the Corporations Act 2001, ASIC Regulatory Guide 49 and ASIC Class Order 14/1000.

Tax Withholding. Subdivision 83A-C of the Income Tax Assessment Act, 1997, applies to RSUs granted under the Plan, such that the RSUs are intended to be subject to deferred taxation.

Austria

Tax Withholding. If the Participant holds Awards acquired under the Plan outside Austria (even if they hold them outside Austria with an Austrian bank), then the Participant understands that the Participant must submit an annual report to the Austrian National Bank using the form “Standmeldung/Wertpapiere.” An exemption applies if the value of the securities held outside Austria as of December 31 does not exceed certain thresholds. If applicable, the deadline for filing the annual report is January 31 of the following year.

When the Awards are sold, there may be exchange control obligations if the cash received is held outside Austria, as a separate ongoing reporting requirement may apply to non-Austrian accounts. If the transaction value of all cash accounts abroad is less than a certain threshold, then no ongoing reporting requirements apply. However, if the transaction volume of all of the Participant’s cash accounts abroad meets or exceeds a certain threshold, then the movements and the balance of all accounts must be reported monthly, as of the last day of the month, on or before the 15th day of the following month, using the form “Meldungen SI-Forderungen und/oder SI-Verpflichtungen.”

Bahrain

Compliance with Securities Law. The Award Agreement, the Plan and all other materials the Participant may receive regarding participation in the Plan do not constitute advertising or the offering of securities in Bahrain, nor do they constitute an allotment of securities in Bahrain.  Any Shares of Stock issued will be deposited into a Company-designated brokerage account outside Bahrain.  In no event Shares of Stock will be issued or delivered in Bahrain. Any disposition or sale of the Awards must take place outside Bahrain.

Barbados

Awards. Due to regulatory requirements in Barbados, the grant of the Awards does not provide any right for the Participant to receive Awards upon settlement of the Awards and settlement of any Awards granted hereunder will be made in the form of a cash payment payable through local payroll. The Company reserves the right to provide the Participant with alternative methods of settlement depending on the development of local law.

Belgium

Compliance with Securities Law.  The Participant is required to report any securities (e.g., Shares) or bank accounts opened and maintained outside Belgium on Participant’s annual tax return. In a separate report, certain details regarding such foreign accounts (including the account number, bank name and country in which such account was opened) must be provided to the Central Contact Point of the National Bank of Belgium. The forms to complete this report are available on the website of the National Bank of Belgium.

Tax Withholding. A stock exchange tax applies to transactions executed by a Belgian resident through a financial intermediary, such as a bank or broker. If the transaction is conducted through a Belgian financial intermediary, it may withhold the stock exchange tax, but if the transaction is conducted through a non-Belgian financial intermediary, the Belgian resident may need to report and pay the stock exchange tax directly. The stock exchange tax likely will apply when Shares acquired under the Plan are sold. Belgian residents should consult with a personal tax or financial advisor for additional details on their obligations with respect to the stock exchange tax.

Brokerage Account Tax. A brokerage account tax applies to Belgian residents if the average annual value of securities (including Shares acquired under the Plan) held in a brokerage account exceeds certain thresholds. Belgian residents should consult with a personal tax or financial advisor for additional details on their obligations with respect to the brokerage account tax.

Brazil

Compliance with the Law. By accepting the Awards, the Participant acknowledges Participant’s agreement to comply with applicable Brazilian laws and to pay any and all applicable tax-related items.

Bulgaria

There are no country-specific provisions.

Canada

Securities Law Information. The Participant is permitted to sell Awards acquired through the Plan through the designated broker appointed under the Plan, if any (or any other broker acceptable to the Company).

Termination of Employment. In the event of termination of the Participant’s employment for any reason (other than by reason of death), either by the Participant or by the Company, with or without cause, the Participant’s right to vest or to continue to vest in the RSUs and receive Awards under the Plan, if any, will terminate as of the actual Date of Termination. For this purpose, the “Date of Termination” shall mean the last day on which the Participant is actively employed by the Company, and shall not include or be extended by any period following such day during which the Participant is in receipt of or eligible to receive any notice of termination, pay in lieu of notice of termination, severance pay or any other payments or damages, whether arising under statute, contract or at common law.

Compliance with Securities Law. Foreign specified property (including cash held outside Canada) held by Canadian residents must be reported annually on Form T1135 (Foreign Income Verification Statement) if the cost of such foreign specified property exceeds C$100,000 at any time during the year. Foreign specified property may also include the unvested portion of the Awards. The Awards must be reported (generally at a nil cost) if the $100,000 cost threshold is exceeded because of other foreign specified property the Participant holds. The Participant should consult with the Participant’s personal tax advisor to determine the reporting requirements.

The following terms and conditions apply if the Participant is in Quebec:

Data Privacy. The Participant hereby authorizes the Company and the Company’s representatives to discuss with and obtain all relevant information from all personnel, professional or not, involved in the administration and operation of the Plan.

Chile

Compliance with Securities Law. The offer of RSUs constitutes a private offering of securities in Chile effective as of the Grant Date. This offer of RSUs is made subject to general ruling N 336 of the Chilean Commission for the Financial Market (“CMF”). The offer refers to securities not registered at the securities registry or at the foreign securities registry of the CMF, and, therefore, such securities are not subject to oversight of the CMF. Given that the Awards are not registered in Chile, the Company is not required to provide public information about the Awards in Chile. Unless the Awards are registered with the CMF, a public offering of such securities cannot be made in Chile.

China

The following provision applies if the Participant is subject to exchange control restrictions and regulations in the People's Republic of China (“PRC”), including the requirements imposed by the China State Administration of Foreign Exchange (“SAFE”), as determined by the Company in its sole discretion:

Awards. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or the Award Agreement, the Awards will not vest and no Shares of Stock will be issued to the Participant unless and until all necessary exchange control or other approvals with respect to the Awards under the Plan have been obtained from the SAFE or its local counterpart (“SAFE Approval”). In the event that SAFE Approval has not been obtained prior to any date(s) on which the RSUs are scheduled to vest in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth in the Award Agreement, the Awards will not vest until the seventh day of the month following the month in which SAFE Approval is obtained (the “Actual Vesting Date”). If the Participant’s status as a service provider terminates prior to the Actual Vesting Date, the Participant shall not be entitled to vest in any portion of the Awards and the Awards shall be forfeited without any liability to the Company, the Employer or any subsidiary or affiliate of the Company.

Compliance with Securities Law. Due to exchange control laws in the PRC, Shares acquired through Awards vestings must be maintained in the broker account designated by the Company until the Awards are sold. When the Awards are sold, all proceeds must be repatriated to the PRC and held in a special exchange control account maintained by the Company, or one of the Company’s subsidiaries in the PRC. To the extent that the Participant holds any Shares on the date that is three (3) months (or such other period as may be required by the SAFE) after the date of the Participant’s termination of the contract with the Company, the Participant authorizes the broker designated by the Company to sell such Awards on the Participant’s behalf at that time or as soon as is administratively practicable thereafter. The Participant understands and agrees that the Company's designated broker is under no obligation to arrange for the sale of the Awards at any particular price. Upon the sale of the Awards, the Company agrees to pay the Participant the cash proceeds from the sale, less any brokerage fees or commissions and subject to any obligation to satisfy Tax-Related Items.

The Participant further is required to repatriate to the PRC any dividends or dividend equivalents paid to the Participant in relation to Awards through a special exchange control account established by the Company, the Employer, or one of the Company’s subsidiaries in the PRC. The Participant hereby agrees that any cash proceeds from the Participant’s participation in the Plan may be transferred to a special account prior to being delivered to the Participant.

The Participant also understands and agrees that there will be a delay between the date the Awards are sold and the date the cash proceeds are distributed to the Participant. The Participant agrees to bear any currency fluctuation risk between the time the Awards are sold and the time the cash proceeds are distributed to the Participant through the special account described above. The Participant further agrees to comply with any other requirements that may be imposed by the Company in the future in order to facilitate compliance with exchange control requirements in the PRC.

Tax Withholding. Taxes are due at the time of vesting of the Awards. The Participant understands and agrees that Tax-Related Items may be taken by the Employer from the Participant’s salary or other cash compensation.

Colombia

Awards. The Participant acknowledges that, pursuant to Article 128 of the Colombian Labor Code, the Awards and related benefits do not constitute a component of the Participant’s “salary” for any legal purpose.

Based on the foregoing, the Participant expressly recognizes that the Plan and the benefits that the Participant may derive from participation in the Plan do not establish any rights between the Participant and the Company and do not form part of the employment conditions and/or benefits provided by the Company and any modification of the Plan or its termination shall not constitute a change or impairment of the terms and conditions of the Participant's engagement.

The Participant further understands that the Participant’s participation in the Plan is as a result of a unilateral and discretionary decision of the Company; therefore, the Company reserves the absolute right to amend and/or discontinue the Participant's participation at any time without any liability to the Participant.

Compliance with Securities Law. WARNING: This is an offer of Awards which, upon vesting and settlement in accordance with the terms of the Plan and the Award Agreement, will be converted into Shares of Stock. Shares of Stock give the Participant a stake in the ownership of the Company.

New Zealand law normally requires people who offer financial products to give information to investors before they invest. This information is designed to help investors to make an informed decision. The usual rules do not apply to this offer because it is made under an employee share scheme. As a result, the Participant may not be given all the information usually required. The Participant will also have fewer other legal protections for this investment. Ask questions, read all documents carefully, and seek independent financial advice before committing.

Prior to the vesting and settlement of the Awards, the Participant will not have any rights of ownership (e.g., voting rights) with respect to the underlying Shares of Stock.

No interest in any Awards may be transferred (legally or beneficially), sold, pledged, hypothecated or encumbered.

In this regard, the Participant should note that the value of any Shares of Stock the Participant may acquire under the Plan may decrease, and fluctuations in foreign exchange rates between the Participant’s local currency and the U.S. Dollar may affect the value of the Shares or any amounts due to the Participant pursuant to the vesting of the RSUs or the subsequent sale of any Shares acquired by the Participant. The Company is not making any representations, projections or assurances about the value of the Shares of Stock now or in the future.

The Participant should also note that the sale or disposal of Shares of Stock acquired under the Plan may be subject to certain restrictions under Philippines securities laws.

Spain

Compliance with Securities Law. In accepting the Awards, the Participant acknowledges that the Participant consents to participation in the Plan and has received a copy of the Plan. The Participant understands that the Company has unilaterally, gratuitously and in its sole discretion decided to grant Awards under the Plan to individuals who may be Participants of the Company or its subsidiaries throughout the world. The decision is a limited decision that is entered into upon the express assumption and condition that any Awards will not economically or otherwise bind the Company or any of its subsidiaries on an ongoing basis. Consequently, the Participant understands that the Awards are granted on the assumption and condition that the Awards or the Shares of Stock acquired upon settlement shall not become a part of any employment contract (either with the Company or any of its subsidiaries) and shall not be considered a mandatory benefit, salary for any purposes (including severance compensation) or any other right whatsoever. In addition, the Participant understands that the Award grant would not be made to the Participant but for the assumptions and conditions referred to above; thus, the Participant acknowledges and freely accepts that should any or all of the assumptions be mistaken or should any of the conditions not be met for any reason, then any Awards shall be null and void.

Further, and except as provided in Section 2(d) of the Award Agreement in the event the Participant becomes disabled, the vesting of the Awards is expressly conditioned on the Participant’s continued rendering of service, such that if the Participant’s employment terminates for any reason whatsoever, the Awards will cease vesting immediately, in whole or in part, effective on the date of the Participant’s termination of employment (unless otherwise specifically provided in Section 2 of the Agreement in the event of death). This will be the case, for example, even if (1) the Participant is considered to be unfairly dismissed without good cause; (2) the Participant is dismissed for disciplinary or objective reasons or due to a collective dismissal; (3) the Participant terminates service due to a change of work location, duties or any other employment or contractual condition; (4) the Participant terminates service due to a unilateral breach of contract by the Company or a subsidiary; or (5) the Participant’s employment terminates for any other reason whatsoever. Consequently, upon termination of the Participant’s employment for any of the above reasons, the Participant will automatically lose any rights to Awards that were not vested on the date of the Participant’s termination of employment, as described in the Plan and the Award Agreement. The Participant understands that the Award grant would not be made to the Participant but for the assumptions and conditions referred to above; thus, the Participant acknowledges and freely accepts that should any or all of the assumptions be mistaken or should any of the conditions not be met for any reason, then any Award grant shall be null and void.

The grant of Awards and the Shares of Stock issued upon vesting of the Awards are considered a private placement outside the scope of Spanish laws on public offerings and issuances of securities. No “offer of securities to the public”, as defined under Spanish law, has taken place or will take place in the Spanish territory. The Award Agreement has not been nor will it be registered with the Comisión Nacional del Mercado de Valores, and does not constitute a public offering prospectus.

The Participant acknowledges that the Participant must declare any Shares of Stock that are acquired under the Plan to the Dirección General de Comercio e Inversiones of the Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness (the “DGCI”). After the initial declaration, the declaration must be filed with the DGCI on an annual basis each January while the shares are owned; however, if the value of the Shares of Stock or the sale proceeds exceed a certain amount, a declaration must be filed within one month of the acquisition or sale, as applicable.

To the extent that the Participant holds assets (e.g., cash or Shares held in a bank or brokerage account) outside Spain with a value in excess of €50,000 per type of asset (e.g., Shares, cash, and so on) as of December 31 each year, the Participant will be required to report information on such assets on the Participant’s tax return for such year (tax form 720). After such assets are initially reported, the reporting obligation will only apply for subsequent years if the value of any previously-reported assets increases by more than €20,000. If applicable, the reporting must be completed by March 31. Failure to comply with this reporting requirement may result in penalties to the Participant. Accordingly, the Participant should consult with the Participant’s personal tax and legal advisors to ensure that the Participant is properly complying with Participant’s reporting obligations.

Further, the Participant is required to declare to the Bank of Spain any securities accounts (including brokerage accounts held abroad), as well as the securities held in such accounts if the value of the transactions for all such accounts during the prior tax year or the balances in such accounts as of December 31 of the prior tax year exceeds €1,000,000.

The term "suspicious transaction" refers to any transaction about which, regardless of its value, a Ukrainian bank has a reasonable suspicion that the funds may be used to support criminal activity, or to facilitate the spread of weapons of mass destruction.

The Participant is solely responsible for complying with all applicable exchange controls in Ukraine. For compliance with applicable requirements, the Participant should consult their personal legal advisors.

United States

Excess Parachute Payment.  If any acceleration of vesting pursuant to an Award and any other payment or benefit received or to be received by a Participant would subject the Participant to any excise tax due to the characterization of such acceleration of vesting, payment or benefit as an “excess parachute payment”, then, provided such election would not subject the Participant to taxation, the Participant may elect to reduce the amount of any acceleration of vesting called for under the Award Agreement in order to avoid such characterization.

Determination by a Tax Firm.  To aid the Participant in making any election called for under Section 8.2(a), no later than the date of the occurrence of any event that might reasonably be anticipated to result in an “excess parachute payment” to the Participant as described in Section 8.2(a), the Company shall request a determination in writing by the professional firm engaged by the Company for general tax purposes, or, if the tax firm so engaged by the Company is serving as accountant or auditor for the Acquiror, the Company will appoint a nationally recognized tax firm to make the determinations required by this Section (the “Tax Firm”).  As soon as practicable thereafter, the Tax Firm shall determine and report to the Company and the Participant the amount of such acceleration of vesting, payments and benefits which would produce the greatest after-tax benefit to the Participant.  For the purposes of such determination, the Tax Firm may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of the law.  The Company and the Participant shall furnish to the Tax Firm such information and documents as the Tax Firm may reasonably request in order to make its required determination.  The Company shall bear all fees and expenses the Tax Firm may charge in connection with its services contemplated by this Section.

Withholding required on employment income portion.

Official guidance regarding calculation of these income components is unclear.

Exchange Controls. Under Circular 10 issued by the State Bank of Vietnam ("SBV"), companies granting equity awards to Vietnamese nationals must register the plan with the SBV and comply with various other requirements.

Once registration is completed, quarterly and/or other reporting requirements apply.
