Attachment: Annexes A and B
ANNEX A
TO
THE WESTERN UNION COMPANY 2024 LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN
NONQUALIFIED STOCK OPTION AWARD AGREEMENT
TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Further Terms and Conditions of Stock Option Award. It is understood and agreed that the Stock Option evidenced by the Agreement to which this is annexed is subject to the following additional terms and conditions:
1.Conditions of Exercise. This Stock Option may not be exercised, in whole or in part, unless the following conditions are met:
(a)Legal counsel for the Company must be satisfied at the time of exercise that the issuance of shares upon exercise will comply with applicable U.S. federal, state, local and foreign laws.
(b)Employee gives written or electronic notice to the Company or its designated agent, in accordance with procedures prescribed by the Company, specifying the number of whole shares of Common Stock to be purchased and accompanying such notice with payment therefor in full (or arrangement made for such payment to the Company’s satisfaction) either: (A) in cash, (B) except as may be prohibited by applicable law, in cash by a broker-dealer acceptable to the Company to whom Employee has submitted an irrevocable notice of exercise (a “Cashless Exercise”), or (C) any other method of payment permitted by the Committee and applicable law, and (ii) by executing such documents as the Company may reasonably request. This Stock Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a share of Common Stock.
(c)Employee must, at all times during the period beginning with the Date of Grant of this Stock Option and ending on the date of such exercise, (A) have been employed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, (B) served as a Non-Employee Director or (C) provided services to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates as an advisor or consultant, with certain exceptions noted below.
2.Tax Withholding. The Company shall have the right to require, as of the grant, vesting or exercise of this Stock Option and the sale of any shares of Common Stock received upon exercise of this Stock Option, that Employee (or any person acting under paragraph 3 below):
(a)Prior to any relevant taxable or tax withholding event (“Tax Date”), as applicable, Employee will pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or Employer to satisfy any or all income tax (including foreign, federal, state and local taxes), social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to Employee’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to Employee (“Tax-Related Items”). In this regard, Employee will satisfy the obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following: (i) in cash; (ii) except as may be prohibited by applicable law, a Cashless Exercise; or (iii) any other method of payment permitted by the Committee and applicable law, equal to the amount necessary to satisfy the Tax-Related Items.
(b)Provide the Company with any forms, documents or other information reasonably required by the Company in connection with the grant.
(c)Regardless of any action the Company and/or Employee’s employer (the “Employer”) takes with respect to the Tax-Related Items, Employee acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by Employee is and remains Employee’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company and/or the Employer. Employee further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (i) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Stock Option, including the grant of the Stock Option, the exercise of the Stock Option, the receipt of an equivalent cash payment, the subsequent sale of any shares of Common Stock acquired at exercise and the receipt of any dividends on any shares of Common Stock acquired upon exercise; and (ii) do not commit to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Stock Option to reduce or eliminate Employee’s liability for the Tax-Related Items.
(d)Finally, Employee 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 as a result of Employee’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to issue shares of Common Stock to Employee if Employee fails to comply with Employee’s obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items as described herein.
3.Nontransferability of Stock Option. Subject to any restrictions imposed by local law, so long as Employee continues to be a subject to Section 16 of the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder or an Executive Vice President, Employee may transfer this Stock Option to a family member or family entity without consideration, in accordance with Section 5.4 of the Plan; provided, however, in the case of a transfer of this Stock Option to a limited liability company or a partnership which is a family entity, such transfer may be for consideration consisting solely of an entity interest in the limited liability company or partnership to which the transfer is made. Any transfer of this Stock Option shall be in a form acceptable to the Company, shall be signed by Employee and shall be effective only upon written acknowledgement by the Committee (or its authorized delegate) of its receipt and acceptance of such notice. If this Stock Option is transferred to a family member or family entity, the Stock Option may not thereafter be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of by such family member or family entity except by will or the laws of descent and distribution.
4.Termination of Service. Employee shall forfeit Employee’s right to this Stock Option, to the extent not already vested, if Employee’s continuous service with the Company or a Subsidiary or Affiliate terminates for any reason prior to the Date of Full Vesting (except as set forth in the following subparagraphs (a) through (d) or as provided for in any severance policy applicable to the Employee or any other agreement between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates and Employee). Employee’s right to exercise the Stock Option and the time during which Employee may exercise the Stock Option depends on the reason for Employee’s termination.
(a)Death or Disability. If Employee’s service with the Company or a Subsidiary or Affiliate terminates by reason of death or termination by the Company or a Subsidiary or Affiliate due to Disability prior to the Date of Full Vesting, Employee shall immediately vest, as of the date of such termination of service, in this Stock Option and it shall become
exercisable and may thereafter be exercised by Employee or Employee’s executor, administrator, legal representative, beneficiary or similar person until the date which is one year after the date of death or the effective date of Employee’s termination of service, or if earlier, the Expiration Date of the term of this Stock Option. For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” shall mean either that the Employee is either (i) unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity, or (ii) receiving income replacement benefits for a period of not less than three (3) months under an accident and health plan covering employees of the Employer, in either case, by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than twelve (12) months.
(b)Retirement. If Employee’s service with the Company or a Subsidiary or Affiliate terminates by reason of a Qualifying Retirement and the Employee has provided at least six-months advance notice of retirement (or such shorter period approved by the Executive Vice President, Human Resources with respect to Employees not subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act or, for Employees subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, the Committee), in a form acceptable to the Company, this Stock Option, to the extent not already vested, shall fully vest and become exercisable at the same time as if Employee had remained employed with the Company through the Date of Full Vesting, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and Employee’s timely execution of an agreement and release in a form acceptable to the Company. For purposes of this Agreement, a Qualifying Retirement will occur upon an Employee's termination of service to the Company or a Subsidiary or Affiliate (other than a termination by reason of death or Disability or for Cause) on or after the date the sum of the Employee’s age and Years of Service totals 60, with a minimum of at least five Years of Service and a minimum age of 50. Years of Service shall mean the number of full years of uninterrupted service as a regular full-time employee or part-time employee from Employee’s most recent date of hire. Years of Service also includes (i) time spent on Company-approved leave of absences, provided that no more than one (1) cumulative Year of Service shall be credited for such leave of absences and (ii) prior service with certain acquired companies or other affiliated companies provided the prior service is negotiated for in the applicable acquisition agreement. The vested portion of this Stock Option, including any portion that had previously become vested, may be exercised by Employee (or their legal representative or similar person) until the earlier of (i) the date which is two years after the Date of Full Vesting or (ii) the Expiration Date. In administering the Plan, the Committee reserves the right to treat Employee’s termination of service due to Retirement the same as "Other Termination" (as defined in this Agreement) in the event that application of the immediately preceding sentence would be deemed to be impermissible age discrimination under local law, as determined in the sole discretion of the Committee.
(c)Involuntary Termination Without Cause. Except to the extent subparagraph (b) applies, if Employee’s employment with the Company or a Subsidiary or an Affiliate terminates involuntarily and without Cause and at such time Employee is entitled to receive benefits under a Company severance policy, subject to Employee’s timely execution of an agreement and release (the “Release”) in a form acceptable to the Company which will include restrictive covenants and a comprehensive release of all claims, the unvested portion of the Stock Option shall vest on a prorated basis effective on your termination date, with the portion of the Stock Option subject to the execution and non-revocation of a Release vested as of such termination of service but with the exercisability of such
portion suspended until the effective date of the Release and, in the event the Release does not become effective, such portion of the Stock Option shall be canceled by the Company for no consideration. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Company severance policy applicable to Employee as of the effective date of termination of service, such prorated vesting shall be calculated by multiplying the total number of shares covered by the Stock Option as of the Date of Grant by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days between the Date of Grant and the effective date of Employee’s termination and the denominator of which is the number of days between the Date of Grant and the Date of Full Vesting, less the portion of the Stock Option which has previously vested. The unvested portion of the Stock Option that does not become vested under such calculation shall be forfeited effective on Employee’s termination date and shall be canceled by the Company for no consideration. The vested portion of the Stock Option, including any portion that had previously become vested and the prorated portion that vests effective on Employee’s termination date in accordance with the above calculation, may be exercised by Employee (or Employee’s legal representative or similar person) until the second anniversary of Employee’s termination date or, if earlier, the Expiration Date. If Employee’s employment with or service to the Company or a Subsidiary or an Affiliate is terminated involuntarily and without Cause and Employee is not entitled to benefits under a Company-sponsored severance policy on the date of such termination, the Stock Option shall cease to vest, and to the extent already vested, may thereafter be exercised by Employee (or Employee’s legal representative or similar person) until the date which is three months after such involuntary termination, or if earlier, the Expiration Date.
(d)Change in Control Termination. If Employee is an eligible participant in The Western Union Company Severance/Change in Control Policy (Executive Committee Level) (the “Executive Severance Policy”) at the time of a Change in Control and Employee’s employment with the Company, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate terminates for an eligible reason under such Executive Severance Policy during the 24-month period commencing on the effective date of the Change in Control, then this Stock Option shall immediately become fully vested and exercisable effective on the date of Employee’s termination and may thereafter be exercised by Employee (or Employee’s legal representative or similar person) until the end of Employee’s severance period (as defined in any severance policy applicable to the Employee) or, if earlier, the Expiration Date.
(e)Termination for Cause. If Employee’s employment with the Company or a Subsidiary or an Affiliate is terminated for Cause, the Stock Option shall cease to vest, and to the extent already vested, may thereafter be exercised by Employee (or Employee’s legal representative or similar person) until the close of the New York Stock Exchange (if open) on the date of Employee’s termination of service. If the New York Stock Exchange is closed at the time of Employee’s termination of service, the Stock Option shall be forfeited at the time Employee’s employment is terminated and shall be canceled by the Company for no consideration.
(f)Other Termination. If Employee’s employment with the Company or a Subsidiary or an Affiliate terminates for any reason other than death, Disability, Qualifying Retirement, involuntary termination without Cause, termination for Cause or termination for an eligible reason under such Executive Severance Policy during the 24-month period commencing on the effective date of the Change in Control, as contemplated by subparagraph 4(d), the Stock Option shall cease to vest, and to the extent already vested,
may thereafter be exercised by Employee (or Employee’s legal representative or similar person) until the close of the New York Stock Exchange (if open) on the date which is the thirtieth (30th) day following Employee’s termination of service, or if earlier, the Expiration Date.
(g)Death Following Termination of Service. If Employee dies during the period specified in subparagraphs 4(a) through 4(d) and 4(f) during which the Stock Option may be exercised, the Stock Option will be exercisable only to the extent that the Stock Option is exercisable on the date of Employee's death and may thereafter be exercised by Employee's executor, administrator, legal representative, beneficiary or similar person until the date which is one year after the date of Employee's death, or if earlier, the Expiration Date.
If the New York Stock Exchange is closed on the last day to exercise Employee's unexpired Stock Option as provided in subparagraphs 4(a) through 4(d), 4(f) and 4(g), as applicable, then Employee's unexpired Stock Option may be exercised until the close of the New York Stock Exchange on the next following day on which the New York Stock Exchange is open, after which time the Stock Option shall be forfeited and canceled by the Company for no consideration, provided that the Stock Option may not be exercise after its Expiration Date.
5.Amendment. The terms of this Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Committee in its sole discretion in any manner that it deems appropriate; provided, however, that no such amendment shall adversely affect in a material manner any right of Employee under this Agreement without Employee’s written consent.
6.Decisions of Company, Board or Committee. Any action taken or decision made by the Company, the Board, or the Committee or its delegates arising out of or in connection with the construction, administration, interpretation or effect of the Plan or this Agreement shall lie within its sole and absolute discretion, as the case may be, and shall be final, conclusive and binding on Employee and all persons claiming under or through Employee. By accepting this grant or other benefit under the Plan, Employee and each person claiming under or through Employee shall be conclusively deemed to have indicated acceptance and ratification of, and consent to, any action taken under the Plan by the Company, the Board or the Committee or its delegates.
7.Participation in the Plan and Award of Units. In accepting the grant, Employee acknowledges that: (i) the Plan is discretionary in nature and it may be modified, suspended or terminated by the Company or the Committee at any time; (ii) the grant of the Stock Option is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of stock options, or benefits in lieu of options, even if stock options have been granted repeatedly in the past; (iii) all decisions with respect to any such future grants will be at the sole discretion of the Committee; (iv) Employee’s participation in the Plan shall not create a right to further employment or service with Employee’s Employer and shall not interfere with the ability of Employee’s Employer to terminate Employee’s employment or service relationship at any time with or without cause; (v) Employee’s participation in the Plan is voluntary; (vi) the value of the Stock Option is an extraordinary item of compensation which is outside the scope of your employment contract, if any; (vii) in the event of involuntary termination of Employee’s employment, your right to receive stock options under the Plan, if any, will terminate effective as of the date that you are no longer actively employed regardless of any reasonable notice period mandated under local law (including but not limited to statutory law, regulatory law and/or common law) and the right to receive grants of stock options will not continue during any required notice period; (viii) the Stock Options have not been granted to you in consideration
of your employment with Employee’s Employer, but is purely a gratuity extended by the Company at its sole discretion, and the Stock Option can in no event be understood or interpreted to mean that the Company is Employee’s Employer or that you have an employment or service relationship with the Company; (ix) the Stock Option is not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purposes, including, but not limited to, calculating any severance, resignation, redundancy, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement benefits or similar payments; (vii) the future value of the underlying shares is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty; (viii) if the underlying shares do not increase in value, the Stock Option will have no value; and (ix) no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages arises from termination of the Stock Option or diminution in value of the Stock Option or shares purchased through exercise of the Stock Option and you irrevocably release the Company and Employee’s Employer from any such claim that may arise.
The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on Employee’s participation in the Plan, on the Stock Option and on any shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable in order to comply with any applicable law or facilitate the administration of the Plan. Employee agrees to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing. Furthermore, Employee acknowledges that the laws of the country in which Employee is working at the time of grant, exercise of the Stock Option or the sale of shares of Common Stock received pursuant to this Stock Option (including any rules or regulations governing securities, foreign exchange, tax, labor, or other matters) may subject Employee to additional procedural or regulatory requirements that Employee is and will be solely responsible for and must fulfill.
8.Blue Pencil. If one or more provisions of this Agreement shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions shall be deemed null and void; however, to the extent permissible by law, any provisions which could be deemed null and void shall first be construed, interpreted or revised retroactively to permit this Agreement to be construed as to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ the intent of this Agreement and the Plan.
Nothing contained in this Agreement or any restrictive covenant agreement that Employee must accept in order for the restrictions on the Units to lapse, are intended to limit Employee’s ability to (i) report possible violations of law or regulation to, or file a charge or complaint with, the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the National Labor Relations Board, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, the Department of Justice, Congress, any Inspector General, or any other federal, state or local governmental agency or commission (“Government Agencies”), (ii) communicate with any Government Agencies or otherwise participate in any investigation or proceeding that may be conducted by any Government Agency, including providing documents or other information, without notice to the Company or (iii) under applicable United States federal law to (A) disclose in confidence trade secrets to federal, state, and local government officials, or to an attorney, for the sole purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law or (B) disclose trade secrets in a document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, but only if the filing is made under seal and protected from public disclosure.
9.Clawback Policy. To the extent Employee is covered by The Western Union Company ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and Forfeiture Policy (the “▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ Clawback Policy”) and The Western Union Company Misconduct Clawback and Forfeiture Policy (the “Misconduct Clawback Policy”), Employee acknowledges receipt of a copy of the ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ Clawback Policy and the
Misconduct Clawback Policy. Notwithstanding anything in the Agreement to the contrary, the Stock Option, and any related payments, are subject to the provisions of the ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ Clawback Policy and the Misconduct Clawback Policy, and any modification to such policies or any other clawback policy of the Company adopted to comply with applicable laws, rules, regulations or governmental orders or judgments.
10.Governing Law. The validity, construction, interpretation, administration and effect of the Plan and this Agreement shall be governed by the substantive laws, but not the choice of law rules, of the State of Delaware, as provided in the Plan. For purposes of litigating any dispute that arises directly or indirectly under the Stock Option or the Agreement, the parties hereby submit to and consent to the jurisdiction of the State of Colorado, and agree that such litigation shall be conducted in the courts of Denver County, or the federal courts for the United States for the District of Colorado, and no other courts where this grant is made and/or to be performed.

The Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related to the Stock Option and participation in the Plan or related to future options that may be granted under the Plan by electronic means or to request Employee’s consent to participate in the Plan by electronic means. Employee hereby consents to receive such documents by electronic delivery and, if requested, to agree to participate in the Plan through an online or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or a third party designated by the Company.
