WHEREAS, the Compensation Committee (or a duly authorized subcommittee thereof) of the Board of the Company appointed to administer the Plan (the “Committee”) or the Board of the Company has determined that it would be to the advantage and in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to grant the nonqualified Option provided for herein to the Optionee, and has advised the Company thereof and instructed the undersigned officer to issue said Option.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto do hereby agree as follows:

contempt or ridicule; (v) attendance by the Optionee at work in a state of intoxication or the Optionee otherwise being found in possession at the Optionee’s place of work of any prohibited drug or substance, possession of which would amount to a criminal offense, or any other violation of the Company’s drug and alcohol policy; (vi) any assault or other act of violence by the Optionee; or (vii) the Optionee being indicted for any crime constituting (A) any felony whatsoever or (B) any misdemeanor that would preclude employment by the Company or any Subsidiary that employs the Optionee under the Company’s or any such Subsidiary’s hiring policy.

Section 1.2.Delegee

“Delegee” shall mean any Committee member or members, officer of the Company or any other person or persons to whom the Committee or an officer has delegated any of its authority or duties under the Plan; provided, however, that no such delegation shall give non-Committee members authority with respect to non-ministerial actions under the Plan that affect individuals who are subject to the reporting and other provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act or any successor provision.

Section 1.4.Good Reason

“Good Reason” shall mean (a) “Good Reason” as such term may be defined in any employment agreement between the Optionee and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that is in effect at the time of termination of employment; or (b) if there is no such employment agreement in effect, “Good Reason” as such term may be defined in any change-in-control agreement between the Optionee and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that is in effect at the time of the termination of employment; or (c) if there is no such employment or change-in-control agreement, with respect to the Optionee: (i) a material diminution in the Optionee’s base salary unless such action is in connection with across-the-board base salary reductions affecting 100 percent of employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries at the same grade level; or (ii) a material diminution in the Optionee’s authority, duties or responsibilities. To qualify as a termination due to Good Reason under this Agreement, the Optionee must have provided written notice to the Company in accordance with Section 5.3 of this Agreement of the existence of the circumstances providing grounds for termination for Good Reason within thirty (30) days of the initial existence of such grounds and must have given the Company or any Subsidiary that employs the Optionee at least thirty (30) days from receipt of such notice to cure the condition constituting Good Reason.

To the extent this vesting schedule results in the vesting of fractional Shares, the fractional Shares shall be combined into one Share and be exercisable on the earliest Vesting Date.

(b)Notwithstanding Section 3.1(a) above, upon the earliest occurrence of (i) the Optionee’s death, or (ii) the Optionee’s Disability Termination, the Option shall become immediately vested and exercisable with respect to one hundred percent (100%) of the Shares subject to the unvested Option immediately prior to such event (but only to the extent the Option has not otherwise terminated, been forfeited or become exercisable).

(c)Notwithstanding Section 3.1(a) above, in the event the Optionee experiences a Qualifying Termination, the Option shall become immediately vested and exercisable on the date of such Qualifying Termination with respect to one hundred percent (100%) of the Shares subject to the unvested Option (but only to the extent the Option has not otherwise terminated, been forfeited or become exercisable).

ARTICLE IV

EXERCISE OF OPTION

Section 4.1.Person Eligible to Exercise

Any exercisable portion of the Option or the entire Option, if then wholly exercisable, may be exercised prior to the time when the Option or portion thereof becomes unexercisable under Section 3.2: (a) during the lifetime of the Optionee, only by the Optionee (or his or her duly authorized legal representative or guardian appointed for or by the Optionee) and (b) after the death of the Optionee, only by the Optionee’s legatees, personal representatives or distributees.

Section 4.2.Exercise

Any exercisable portion of the Option or the entire Option, if then wholly exercisable, may be exercised in whole or in part at any time prior to the time when the Option or portion thereof becomes unexercisable under Section 3.2; provided, however, that any partial exercise shall be for whole Shares only.

Section 4.3.Manner of Exercise

Any exercisable portion of the Option or the entire Option, if then wholly exercisable, may be exercised from time to time solely by delivering through the electronic or telephonic system maintained by the third party designated by the Committee (or its Delegee) to administer the Plan (the “Stock Plan Award Administrator”) (or such other method approved by the Committee (or its Delegee)) all of the following prior to the time when the Option or such portion becomes unexercisable under Section 3.2:

(a)Written notice from the Optionee or the other person then entitled to exercise the Option or portion thereof, stating the number of Shares with respect to which the Option is being exercised, in such form as the Committee (or its Delegee) shall establish;

(b)Full payment of the Exercise Price for the number of Shares with respect to which the Option is being exercised (i) in cash, (ii) by surrendering Shares (valued at Fair Market Value on the date of exercise) owned by the Optionee, (iii) by withholding Shares (valued at Fair Market Value on the date of exercise) otherwise issuable upon the exercise of the Option, (iv) by broker-assisted exercise (in accordance with rules established by the Committee or its Delegee), or (v) a combination of any of the above methods, in each case unless determined otherwise by the Committee (or its Delegee), in accordance with applicable law and the requirements established by the Committee (or its Delegee) from time to time;

(c)Full payment to satisfy the minimum withholding tax obligation with respect to which such Option or portion thereof is exercised, unless otherwise determined by the Committee (or its Delegee), in similar methods as provided in Section 4.3(b) and in accordance with applicable law and the requirements established by the Committee (or its Delegee) from time to time;

(d)A bona fide written representation and agreement, in a form satisfactory to the Committee (or its Delegee), signed or acknowledged by the Optionee or other person then entitled to exercise such Option or portion thereof, stating that the Shares are being acquired for his or her own account, for investment and without any present intention of distributing or reselling said Shares or any of them except as may be permitted under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), and then applicable rules and regulations thereunder, and that the Optionee or other person then entitled to exercise such Option or portion thereof will indemnify the Company against and hold it free and harmless from any loss, damage, expense or liability resulting to the Company if any sale or distribution of the Shares by such person is contrary to the representation and agreement referred to above; provided, however, that the Committee (or its Delegee) may, in its reasonable discretion, take whatever additional actions it deems reasonably necessary to ensure the observance and performance of such representation and agreement and to effect compliance with the Act and any other federal or state securities laws or regulations; and

(e)In the event the Option or portion thereof shall be exercised pursuant to Section 4.1 by any person or persons other than the Optionee, appropriate proof of the right of such person or persons to exercise the Option.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Committee (or its Delegee) may require an opinion of counsel acceptable to it to the effect that any subsequent transfer of Shares acquired on exercise of the Option does not violate the Act, and may issue stop-transfer orders covering such Shares. The Committee (or its Delegee) may cause a legend or legends to be placed on any Share certificates evidencing Shares issued on exercise of the Option, or if such Shares are issued in book-entry or electronic form, otherwise denote such Shares, to make appropriate reference to the provisions of subsection (d) above and the agreements herein. The written representation and agreement referred to in subsection (d) above shall, however, not be required if the Shares to be issued pursuant to such exercise have been registered under the Act, and such registration is then effective in respect of such Shares.

For purposes of this Section 4.3, a written notice includes notice submitted through the electronic or telephonic system maintained by the Stock Plan Award Administrator or through other means pursuant to procedures approved by the Committee (or its Delegee), and a representation or agreement is considered acknowledged if it is signed or submitted electronically or telephonically in accordance with approved procedures and such electronic or telephonic acknowledgement will have the same force and effect as a manual signature.

Notwithstanding the above, the Committee (or its Delegee) may approve alternative procedures for exercise and for payment of the related exercise price and withholding amounts provided such alternative procedures are established in writing prior to the date of exercise.

Section 4.4.Conditions to Issuance of Stock Certificates

The Shares deliverable upon the exercise of the Option, or any portion thereof, may be either previously authorized but unissued Shares or issued Shares, which have then been reacquired by the Company. Such Shares shall be fully paid and nonassessable. The Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificate or certificates for Shares purchased (if certificated), or to register the issuance of such Shares on its books and records (if not certificated), upon the exercise of the Option or portion thereof prior to fulfillment of all of the following conditions:

(a)The obtaining of approval or other clearance from any state or federal governmental agency which the Committee (or its Delegee) shall, in its reasonable and good faith discretion, determine to be necessary or advisable; and

(b)The lapse of such reasonable period of time following the exercise of the Option as the Committee (or its Delegee) may from time to time establish for reasons of administrative convenience or as may otherwise be required by applicable law.

Section 4.5.Rights as Shareholder

Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.4 of this Agreement, the Optionee shall not be, nor have any of the rights or privileges of, a shareholder of the Company in respect of any Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Option or any portion thereof unless and until certificates

representing such Shares shall have been issued by the Company to the Optionee (or book entry representing such Shares has been made with the appropriate registered book-entry custodian).

the Committee. In the event the Optionee no longer owns the Shares issued upon exercise of the Option at the time of required recoupment, the Optionee agrees to the recoupment of cash equal to the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date the Shares were sold.

Section 5.10.Consent to Electronic Delivery

The Optionee hereby consents to and agrees to electronic delivery of this Agreement, the Shares, Plan documents, proxy materials, annual reports and other related documents. The Committee (or its Delegee) has established procedures for electronic delivery and acceptance of Plan documents (including documents relating to any programs adopted under the Plan and this Agreement). The Optionee hereby consents to such procedures and agrees that his or her electronic acceptance is the same as, and shall have the same force and effect as, his or her manual signature.

HONG KONG APPENDIX

Restriction on Sale. In the event Shares are issued to the Optionee within six (6) months of the Grant Date, the Optionee agrees that he or she will not dispose of any such Shares prior to the six (6)-month anniversary of the Grant Date.

Securities Law Information. Warning: The contents of this document have not been reviewed by any regulatory authority in Hong Kong. The Optionee should exercise caution in relation to the offer. If the Optionee is in any doubt about any of the contents of this document, the Optionee should obtain independent professional advice. Neither the grant of the Option nor the issuance of Shares upon exercise of the Option constitutes a public offering of securities under Hong Kong law and is available only to employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries. The Agreement, the Plan and other incidental communication materials distributed in connection with the Option (i) have not been prepared in accordance with and are not intended to constitute a “prospectus” for a public offering of securities under the applicable securities legislation in Hong Kong, and (ii) are intended only for the personal use of each eligible employee of the Company or its Subsidiaries and may not be distributed to any other person.

MEXICO APPENDIX

Acknowledgment. By participating in the Plan, the Optionee acknowledges that the Optionee has received a copy of the Plan, has reviewed the Plan in its entirety and fully understands and accepts all provisions of the Plan. The Optionee further acknowledges that (i) the Optionee’s participation in the Plan does not constitute an acquired right; (ii) the Plan and the Optionee’s participation in the Plan are offered by the Company on a wholly discretionary basis; (iii) the Optionee’s participation in the Plan is voluntary; and (iv) the Company and its Subsidiaries are not responsible for any decrease in the value of the underlying Shares.

Labor Law Policy and Acknowledgment. By participating in the Plan, the Optionee expressly recognizes that the Company, with its principal executive offices at 000 Xxxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx 00000, U.S.A., is solely responsible for the administration of the Plan and that the Optionee’s participation in the Plan and acquisition of Shares do not constitute an employment relationship between the Optionee and the Company since the Optionee is participating in the Plan on a wholly commercial basis. Based on the foregoing, the Optionee expressly recognizes that the Plan and the benefits that the Optionee may derive from participation in the Plan do not establish any rights between the Optionee and the Subsidiary employing the Optionee (the “Employer”), and do not form part of the employment conditions and/or benefits provided by the Employer, and that any modification of the Plan or its termination shall not constitute a change or impairment of the terms and conditions of the Optionee’s employment with the Employer.

The Optionee further understands that the Optionee’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 Optionee’s participation at any time without any liability to the Optionee.

Finally, the Optionee hereby declares that the Optionee does not reserve to the Optionee any action or right to bring any claim against the Company for any compensation or damages regarding any provision of the Plan or the benefits derived under the Plan, and the Optionee therefore grants a full

and broad release to the Company, its Subsidiaries, branches, representation offices, its shareholders, officers, agents or legal representatives with respect to any claim that may arise.

Securities Law Information. The Option offered under the Plan and the Shares underlying the Option have not been registered with the National Register of Securities maintained by the Mexican National Banking and Securities Commission and cannot be offered or sold publicly in Mexico. In addition, the Plan and any other document relating to the Option may not be publicly distributed in Mexico. These materials are addressed to the Optionee only because of his or her existing relationship with the Company and its Subsidiaries, and these materials should not be reproduced or copied in any form. The offer contained in these materials does not constitute a public offering of securities but rather constitutes a private placement of securities addressed specifically to individuals who are present employees of the Company or a Subsidiary, made in accordance with the provisions of the Mexican Securities Market Law, and any rights under such offering shall not be assigned or transferred.
