Global Deferred Stock Unit Award Agreement

This Global Deferred Stock Unit Award Agreement (the “Agreement”), dated [DATE] (the “Grant Date”), is between you and Boston Scientific Corporation, a Delaware corporation, (the “Company”) in connection with the Award of Deferred Stock Units by the Committee under the Boston Scientific Corporation 2011 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Agreement shall have the same meaning as assigned to them in the Plan. The applicable terms and conditions of the Plan are incorporated into and made a part of this Agreement.

1. Grant of Units. The Committee hereby grants you that number of Deferred Stock Units as set forth in this Agreement (the “Units”). Each Unit represents the Company’s commitment to issue to you one share of Stock subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement. This Award is granted pursuant to and is subject to the provisions of the Plan and the terms and conditions of this Agreement and any applicable Addendum.

2. Vesting. The Units shall vest and shares of Stock will be issued to you according to the vesting schedule set forth in this Agreement. Except as otherwise provided in Sections 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 below, the Units will vest, subject to the conditions described in Section 7 below, in approximately equal annual installments on each of the five (5) consecutive anniversaries of the Grant Date, beginning on the first anniversary of the Grant Date. Shares of Stock for Units that vest in accordance with this Section 2 will be delivered to you within fifteen (15) days after the applicable vesting date but in no event later than the last day of the calendar year that includes the applicable vesting date. No shares of Stock shall otherwise be issued to you prior to the date on which the Units vest. Notwithstanding anything in the Agreement to the contrary, the Company may, in its sole discretion, settle the Units in the form of a cash payment to the extent that settlement in shares of Stock is prohibited under local law or would require the Company and/or any of its Affiliates to obtain the approval of or complete any legal or regulatory filing with any governmental and/or regulatory body in your country of residence (or country of employment, if different). Alternatively, the Company may, in its sole discretion, settle the Units in the form of shares of Stock but require you to sell such Stock immediately or within a specified time following your termination of employment (in which case, this Agreement shall give the Company the authority to issue sales instructions on your behalf).

3. Participant’s Rights in Stock. The shares of Stock, if and when issued to you pursuant to this Agreement, shall be registered in your name and evidenced in a manner as determined by the Company, in its sole discretion. Under no circumstance will you be deemed, by virtue of the granting of the Units, to be a holder of any shares of Stock underlying the Units or be entitled to the rights or privileges of a holder of such shares of Stock (including the right to receive dividends or vote the shares of Stock), unless and until the Units have vested with respect to such shares of Stock and the shares of Stock have been issued to you.

4. Death. In the event you terminate employment by reason of death, any Units that have not vested prior to the date of your death shall immediately vest and shares of

–Rev 1.2017

Stock shall be issued in accordance with your will or the laws of descent and distribution. Shares of Stock for Units which vest under this Section 4 will be delivered within sixty (60) days after your employment termination date.

5. Retirement. If you terminate employment by reason of your Retirement, any Units that have not vested prior to the date of your Retirement shall immediately vest and shares of Stock shall be issued to you, provided you have remained in continuous service with the Company or an Affiliate through the first anniversary of the Grant Date. In the event that your Retirement occurs prior to the first anniversary of the Grant Date, all unvested Units shall immediately terminate and be forfeited in their entirety. Shares of Stock for Units which vest under this Section 5 will be delivered within thirty (30) days after your employment termination date.

In this regard, if you are a local national of and employed in a country that is a member of the European Union, the grant of the Units and the terms and conditions governing the Units are intended to comply with the age discrimination provisions of the EU Equal Treatment Framework Directive, as implemented into local law (the “Age Discrimination Rules”). To the extent that a court or tribunal of competent jurisdiction determines that any provision of the Units is invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part, under the Age Discrimination Rules, the Company, in its sole discretion, shall have the power and authority to revise or strike such provision to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid and enforceable to the full extent permitted under local law.

6. Disability. If you terminate employment by reason of your Disability, any Units that have not vested prior to the date of your termination by reason of Disability shall immediately vest and shares of Stock shall be issued to you. Shares of Stock for Units which vest under this Section 6 will be delivered within thirty (30) days after your employment termination date.

7. Other Termination of Employment; Certain Vesting Conditions. If your employment terminates for any reason other than death, Retirement or Disability, any Units that have not vested prior to the date of your termination shall terminate and be forfeited on the effective date of such termination, except if your employment terminates for Cause, in which case, all unvested Units shall be forfeited upon notice to you of your termination for Cause. The issuance of shares of Stock is conditioned on your continuous employment with the Company or an Affiliate through and on the applicable anniversary of the Grant Date as set forth in Section 2 above. For purposes of the vesting conditions set forth in this Agreement, the effective date of your termination shall be deemed to be the last day of your active service with the Company or an Affiliate (if applicable). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or this Agreement, and for purposes of clarity, the date of your termination of employment shall not be extended by any statutory or common law notice of termination period.

8. Change in Control of the Company. In the event you are employed by the Company or an Affiliate at the time of a Change in Control, any Units that have not vested prior to the Change in Control shall immediately vest and shares of Stock will be issued to

–Rev 1.2017

you immediately prior to the Change in Control; provided, however, that if you have entered into a Change in Control agreement with the Company, the Units will vest according to the provisions of the Change in Control agreement. In the event you have terminated employment with the Company or an Affiliate prior to a Change in Control as a result of death, Disability or Retirement occurring on or after the first anniversary of the Grant Date and Change in Control occurs following your termination of employment, shares of Stock for any Units that have vested under Section 4, 5 or 6 but which have not yet been issued to you will be issued to you immediately prior to the Change in Control. Notwithstanding the foregoing and unless otherwise specifically provided in any agreement of the Company or any of its Affiliates with you pertaining to the effect of a Change of Control on outstanding Awards which is in effect as of the Change of Control, if this Award is subject to and not exempt from the application of Section 409A of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and provides for settlement or payment upon a Change in Control, the definition of Change in Control shall be limited to events which qualify as a change in the ownership of a corporation within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5)(v), or a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of a corporation within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5)(vii); provided, however, that this requirement shall not cause an event that would not otherwise be considered a Change in Control under the definition of a Change in Control under the Plan to be considered a Change in Control.

9. Recoupment Policy.

(a) Current Recoupment Policy. Pursuant to the Company’s recoupment policy and to the extent permitted by governing law, the Board, in its discretion, may seek Recovery of the Award granted to you if you are a Current Executive Officer or Former Executive Officer and you, in the judgment of the Board, commit misconduct or a gross dereliction of duty that results in a material violation of Company policy and causes significant harm to the Company while serving in your capacity as Executive Officer.

(i) Definitions. The following terms, when used in this Section 9, shall have the meaning set forth below:

(1) “Current Executive Officer” means any individual currently designated as an “officer” by the Board for purposes of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

(2) “Executive Officer” means any Current Executive Officer or Former Executive Officer.

(3) “Former Executive Officer” means any individual previously (but not currently) designated as an “officer” by the Board for purposes of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

(4) “Recovery” means the forfeiture or cancellation of unvested Units.

–Rev 1.2017

(b) Provisions Required by Law. If the Company subsequently determines that it is required by law to apply a “clawback” or alternate recoupment provision to outstanding Awards, under the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act or otherwise, then such clawback or recoupment provision also shall apply to this Award, as applicable, as if it had been included on the Grant Date and the Company shall notify you of such additional provision.

10. Consideration for Stock. The shares of Stock subject to the Units are intended to be issued for no cash consideration.

11. Issuance of Stock. The Company shall not be obligated to issue any shares of Stock until (a) all federal, state and local laws and regulations, as the Company may deem applicable, have been complied with; (b) the shares have been listed or authorized for listing upon official notice to the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. or have otherwise been accorded trading privileges; and (c) all other legal matters in connection with the issuance and delivery of the shares have been approved by the Company’s legal department.

12. Transferability; Restrictions on Shares; Legend on Certificate. Until the vesting conditions of this Award have been satisfied and shares of Stock have been issued in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and any applicable Addendum or by action of the Committee, the Units awarded under this Agreement are not transferable and you shall not sell, transfer, assign, pledge, gift, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of or encumber the Units awarded under this Agreement. Transfers of shares of Stock by you are subject to the Company’s Stock Trading Policy and applicable securities laws. Shares of Stock issued to you in certificate form or to your book entry account upon satisfaction of the vesting and other conditions of this Award may be restricted from transfer or sale by the Company and evidenced by stop-transfer instructions upon your book entry account or restricted legend(s) affixed to certificates in the form as the Company or its counsel may require with respect to any applicable restrictions on sale or transfer.

13. Satisfaction of Tax Obligations. Regardless of any action the Company or the Affiliate that employs you (the “Employer”) (if applicable) takes with respect to any or all income tax (including U.S. federal, state and local taxes and/or non-U.S. taxes), social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), you acknowledge and agree that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by you is and remains your responsibility and 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 Units or the shares of Stock issued upon vesting of the Units, and (b) do not commit to structure the terms of the Award (or any aspect of the Units) to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related Items.

Upon the issuance of shares of Stock or the satisfaction of any vesting condition with respect to the shares of Stock to be issued hereunder, if your country of residence (and/or the country of employment, if different) requires withholding of Tax-Related Items, the Company may hold back from the total number of shares of Stock to be delivered to you,

–Rev 1.2017

and shall cause to be transferred to the Company, whole shares of Stock that have an aggregate Fair Market Value sufficient to pay the Tax-Related Items required to be withheld with respect to the shares of Stock, or to the extent it would not result in adverse accounting treatment, the Company may, in its sole discretion, hold back shares of Stock based on a rate of up to the maximum applicable withholding rate. The cash equivalent of the shares of Stock withheld will be used to settle the obligation to withhold the Tax-Related Items. By accepting the grant of Units, you expressly consent to the withholding of shares of Stock and/or cash as provided for hereunder.

Alternatively, you hereby authorize the Company (on your behalf and at your direction pursuant to this authorization) to immediately sell a sufficient whole number of shares of Stock acquired upon vesting resulting in sale proceeds sufficient to pay the Tax-Related Items required to be withheld. You agree to sign any agreements, forms and/or consents that reasonably may be requested by the Company (or the Company’s designated brokerage firm) to effectuate the sale of the shares of Stock (including, without limitation, as to the transfer of the sale proceeds to the Company to satisfy the Tax-Related Items required to be withheld). Further, the Company or the Employer may, in its discretion, withhold any amount necessary to pay the Tax-Related Items from your salary or any other amounts payable to you, with no withholding of shares of Stock or sale of shares of Stock, or may require you to submit a cash payment equivalent to the Tax-Related Items required to be withheld with respect to the Units.

All other Tax-Related Items related to the grant of Units and any shares of Stock delivered in settlement thereof are your sole responsibility. In no event shall whole shares be withheld by or delivered to the Company in satisfaction of any Tax-Related Items in excess of the maximum statutory tax withholding required by law. You agree to indemnify the Company and its Affiliates against any and all liabilities, damages, costs and expenses that the Company and its Affiliates may hereafter incur, suffer or be required to pay with respect to the payment or withholding of any Tax-Related Items.

The Units are intended to comply with or be exempt from the requirements of Code Section 409A. The Plan and this Agreement shall be administered and interpreted in a manner consistent with this intent. If the Company determines that the Agreement is subject to Code Section 409A and that it has failed to comply with the requirements of that Section, the Company may, in its sole discretion, and without your consent, amend this Agreement to cause it to comply with Code Section 409A or be exempt from Code Section 409A.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in the event that any settlement or payment of this Award occurs as a result of your termination of employment and the Company determines that you are a “specified employee” (as that term is defined under Code Section 409A) subject to Code Section 409A at the time your termination of employment, and provided further that such payment or settlement does not otherwise qualify for an applicable exemption from Code Section 409A, then no such settlement or payment shall be paid to you until the date that is the earlier to occur of: (i) your death, or (ii) six (6) months and one (1) day following your termination of employment. Any portion of this Award delayed as a result of the preceding sentence, which is (i) in whole or in part,

–Rev 1.2017

settled in cash and (ii) based on the value of Stock, shall be based on the value of the Stock at the time the Award would have otherwise been settled or paid without application of the delay described in the preceding sentence. If this Award does not otherwise qualify for an applicable exemption from Code Section 409A, the terms “Retirement”, “terminate,” “termination,” “termination of employment,” and variations thereof as used in this agreement, are intended to mean a termination of employment that constitutes a “separation from service” as such term is defined under Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding any action or inaction by the Administrator, you are exclusively responsible for any tax consequences under Code Section 409A resulting from this Award.

14. Repatriation and Legal/Tax Compliance Requirements. If you are resident or employed outside of the United States, you agree, as a condition of the grant of Units, to repatriate all payments attributable to the shares of Stock and/or cash acquired under the Plan (including, but not limited to, dividends and any proceeds derived from the sale of the shares of Stock acquired pursuant to the Units) in accordance with local foreign exchange rules and regulations in your country of residence (and country of employment, if different). In addition, you agree to take any and all actions, and consent to any and all actions taken by the Company and the Employer, as may be required to allow the Company and the Employer to comply with local laws, rules and regulations in your country of residence (and country of employment, if different). Finally, you agree to take any and all actions as may be required to comply with your personal legal and tax obligations under local laws, rules and regulations in your country of residence (and country of employment, if different).

15. Data Privacy. You hereby explicitly and unambiguously consent to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of your personal data as described in this Agreement and any other Unit grant materials by and among, as applicable, the Employer, the Company and its Affiliates for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing your participation in the Plan.

You understand that the Company and the Employer may hold certain personal information about you, including (but not limited to) your name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number (e.g., resident registration number), salary, nationality, job title, any shares of Stock or directorships held in the Company, and details of all Units awarded to you or any other entitlements to shares of Stock awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in your favor (“Data”) for the purpose of implementing, managing and administering the Plan.

You understand that Data may be transferred to any third parties assisting the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan, including but not limited to E*TRADE Securities LLC (“E*TRADE”) or any successor or any other third party that the Company or E*TRADE (or its successor) may engage to assist with the administration of the Plan from time to time. You understand the recipients of the Data may be located in your country, in the United States or elsewhere, and that the recipients’ country may have different data privacy laws and protections than your country. You understand that you may request a list with the names and addresses of

–Rev 1.2017

any potential recipients of the Data by contacting your local human resources representative.

You authorize the Company and any other possible recipients which may assist the Company (presently or in the future) with implementing, administering and managing the Plan to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the sole purpose of implementing, administering and managing the your participation in the Plan. You understand that Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage your participation in the Plan, including any requisite transfer of such Data as may be required to a broker or other third party with whom you may elect to deposit any shares of Stock acquired upon vesting of the Units. You understand that you may, at any time, view Data, request additional information about the storage and processing of Data, require any necessary amendments to Data or refuse or withdraw the consents herein, in any case without cost, by contacting in writing your local human resources representative. Further, you understand that you are providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis. If you do not consent, or if you later revoke your consent, your employment status or service with the Employer will not be adversely affected; the only consequence of refusing or withdrawing your consent is that the Company would not be able to grant you Units or other equity awards or administer or maintain such awards. Therefore, you understand that refusing or withdrawing your consent may affect your ability to participate in the Plan. For more information on the consequences of your refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, you understand that you may contact your local human resources representative.

CHINA

The following provisions govern your participation in the Plan if you are a national of the People’s Republic of China (“China”) resident in mainland China, as determined by the Company in its sole discretion:

1. Shares of Stock Must Be Held with Designated Broker. All shares of Stock issued upon settlement of your Units will be deposited into a personal brokerage account established with the Company’s designated broker, E*TRADE (or any successor broker designated by the Company), on your behalf. You understand that you may sell the shares of Stock at any

–Rev 1.2017

time after they are deposited in such account, however, you may not transfer the shares of Stock out of the brokerage account.

2. Mandatory Sale of Shares Following Termination of Employment. You are required to sell all shares of Stock acquired upon vesting of the Units no later than 90 days following your termination of employment with the Company and its Affiliates (or such earlier date as may be required by the China State Administration of Foreign Exchange (“SAFE”)), in which case, this Addendum shall give the Company the authority to issue sales instructions on your behalf). If any shares remain outstanding on the 90th day following your employment termination date (or such earlier date as may be required by SAFE), you hereby direct, instruct and authorize the Company to issue sale instructions on your behalf.

You agree to sign any additional agreements, forms and/or consents that reasonably may be requested by the Company (or the Company’s designated brokerage firm) to effectuate the sale of the shares of Stock (including, without limitation, as to the transfer of the sale proceeds and other exchange control matters noted below) and shall otherwise cooperate with the Company with respect to such matters. You acknowledge that neither the Company nor the designated brokerage firm is under any obligation to arrange for such sale of shares of Stock at any particular price (it being understood that the sale will occur in the market) and that broker’s fees and similar expenses may be incurred in any such sale. In any event, when the shares of Stock are sold, the sale proceeds, less any tax withholding, any broker’s fees or commissions, and any similar expenses of the sale will be remitted to you in accordance with applicable exchange control laws and regulations.

3. Exchange Control Restrictions. You understand and agree that, pursuant to local exchange control requirements, you will be required immediately to repatriate to China the proceeds from the sale of any shares of Stock acquired under the Plan. You further understand that such repatriation of proceeds may be effected through a special bank account established by the Company or its Affiliate, and you hereby consent and agree that proceeds from the sale of shares of Stock acquired under the Plan may be transferred to such account by the Company on your behalf prior to being delivered to you and that no interest shall be paid with respect to funds held in such account. The proceeds may be paid to you in U.S. dollars or local currency at the Company’s discretion. If the proceeds are paid to you in U.S. dollars, you understand that a U.S. dollar bank account in China must be established and maintained so that the proceeds may be deposited into such account. If the proceeds are paid to you in local currency, you acknowledge that the Company is under no obligation to secure any particular exchange conversion rate and that the Company may face delays in converting the proceeds to local currency due to exchange control restrictions. You agree to bear any currency fluctuation risk between the time the shares of Stock are sold and the net proceeds are converted into local currency and distributed to you. You further agree 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 China.

4. Administration. The Company shall not be liable for any costs, fees, lost interest or dividends or other losses you may incur or suffer resulting from the enforcement of the terms of this Addendum or otherwise from the Company’s operation and enforcement of the Plan,

3. IMPORTANT NOTICE/WARNING. The contents of this document have not been reviewed by any regulatory authority in Hong Kong. You are advised to exercise caution in relation to the offer. If you are in any doubt about any of the contents of the documents, you should obtain independent professional advice. The Units and shares of Stock issued at vesting do not constitute a public offering of securities under Hong Kong law and are available only to employees of the Company or its Affiliates. The Agreement, the Plan and other incidental communication materials 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.

1. Immediate Sale Restriction. Pursuant to Section 2 of the Agreement, when the Units vest, you understand and agree that all shares of Stock issued upon vesting immediately must be sold. You acknowledge and agree that the Company is authorized to issue sales instructions to the Company’s designated broker on your behalf pursuant to this authorization, and you expressly authorize the broker to complete the sale. You also agree to sign any agreements, forms and/or consents that may be reasonably requested by the Company or the Company’s designated broker to effectuate the sale of the shares of Stock and to cooperate with the Company and the Company’s designated broker with respect to such matters. When the shares of Stock are sold, a portion of the resulting sale proceeds will be used to cover any Tax-Related Items required to be withheld and any brokerage fees and expenses associated with the sale. The remaining proceeds will be paid to you as soon as practicable.

You acknowledge that neither the Company nor the Company’s designated broker is under any obligation to arrange for the sale of the shares of Stock at any particular price (it being understood that the sale will occur in the open market) and that brokerage fees and similar expenses may be incurred in any such sale. Due to fluctuations in the Stock price and/or applicable exchange rates between the date the Units vest and (if later) the date on which the shares of Stock are sold, the amount of proceeds ultimately may be more or less than the market value of the shares of Stock on the date the Units vest. You understand and agree that the Company assumes no liability for any fluctuations in the Stock price and/or any applicable exchange rate.

You further acknowledge that your participation in the Plan, the grant of Units and any acquisition of shares of Stock under the Plan do not constitute an employment relationship between you and Boston Scientific Corporation because you are participating in the Plan on a wholly commercial basis and your sole employer is a Mexican legal entity (“Boston Scientific-Mexico”). Based on the foregoing, you expressly acknowledge that the Plan and the benefits that you may derive from participation in the Plan do not establish any rights between you and the Employer, Boston Scientific-Mexico, and do not form part of the employment conditions and/or benefits provided by Boston Scientific-Mexico, and any modification of the Plan or its termination shall not constitute a change or impairment of the terms and conditions of your employment.

–Rev 1.2017

usted acepta que su participación en el Plan, la concesión de los Unidades y cualquier adquisición de acciones en el marco del Plan no constituyen una relación laboral entre usted y Boston Scientific Corporation porque usted está participando en el Plan en su totalidad sobre una base comercial y su único empleador es una sociedad mercantil Mexicana (“Boston Scientific-Mexico”).

NEW ZEALAND

Securities Law Notice.

Warning

This is an offer of Units which, upon vesting and settlement in accordance with the terms of the Plan and the Agreement, will be converted into shares of Stock. Shares of Stock give you a stake in the ownership of Boston Scientific Corporation. You may receive a return if dividends are paid.

–Rev 1.2017

If Boston Scientific Corporation runs into financial difficulties and is wound up, you will be paid only after all creditors and holders of preference shares have been paid. You may lose some or all of your investment.

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 purchase scheme. As a result, you may not be given all the information usually required. You 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 Units, you will not have any rights of ownership (e.g., voting or dividend rights) with respect to the underlying shares of Stock.

No interest in any Units may be transferred (legally or beneficially), assigned, mortgaged, charged or encumbered.

The shares of Stock are quoted on the New York Stock Exchange. This means that if you acquire shares of Stock under the Plan, you may be able to sell them on the New York Stock Exchange if there are interested buyers. You may get less than you invested. The price will depend on the demand for the shares of Stock.

1. Income Tax and Social Insurance Contribution Withholding. The following provision shall replace Section 13 of the Agreement:

Regardless of any action the Company or the Affiliate that employs you (the “Employer”) (if applicable) takes with respect to any or all income tax and primary Class 1 National Insurance contributions, payroll tax or other tax-related withholding attributable to or payable in connection with or pursuant to the grant or vesting of the Award and the acquisition of Stock, or the release or assignment of the Award for consideration, or the receipt of any other benefit in connection with the Award (“Tax-Related Items”), you acknowledge and agree that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by you is and remains your responsibility. Furthermore, 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 Award, including the grant of the Award, the vesting of the Award, and the issuance of Stock in settlement, the subsequent sale of any Stock acquired and the receipt of any dividends; and (b) do not commit to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Award to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related Items.

As a condition of the issuance of Stock upon vesting of the Award, the Company and/or the Employer shall be entitled to withhold and you agree to pay, or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy, all obligations of the Company and/or the Employer to account to HM Revenue & Customs (“HMRC”) for any Tax-Related Items. In this regard, you authorize the Company and/or the Employer to withhold all applicable Tax-Related Items legally payable by you by withholding a sufficient number of whole shares of Stock having a fair market value (determined in the Company’s reasonable discretion) on the applicable withholding date equal to the minimum amount of Tax-Related Items required to be withheld. Alternatively, or in addition, if permissible under local law, you authorize the Company and/or the Employer, at its discretion and pursuant to such procedures as it may specify from time to time, to satisfy the obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items legally payable by you by one or a combination of the following: (a) withholding from any wages or other cash compensation paid to you by the Company and/or the Employer; (b) arranging for the sale of a sufficient number of whole shares of Stock otherwise deliverable to you (on your behalf and at your direction pursuant to this authorization); or (c) withholding from the proceeds of the sale of a sufficient number of whole shares of Stock acquired upon vesting of the Award. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding a whole number of shares of Stock as described herein, you will be deemed to have been issued the full number of shares subject to the Award, notwithstanding that a number of the shares of stock are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of any aspect of the Award.

If, by the date on which the event giving rise to the Tax-Related Items occurs (the “Chargeable Event”), you have relocated to another country, you acknowledge that the Company and/or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one country.

–Rev 1.2017

You also agree that the Company and the Employer may determine the amount of Tax-Related Items to be withheld and accounted for by reference to the maximum applicable rates, without prejudice to any right which you may have to recover any overpayment from the relevant tax authorities. You shall pay to the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to account to HMRC with respect to the Chargeable Event that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. If payment or withholding is not made within 90 days after the end of the U.K. tax year in which the Chargeable Event occurs or such other period specified in Section 222(1)(c) of the U.K. Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Xxx 0000, (the “Due Date”), you agree that the amount of any uncollected Tax-Related Items shall (assuming you are not a director or executive officer of the Company (within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), constitute a loan owed by you to the Employer, effective on the Due Date. You agree that the loan will bear interest at the then-current HMRC Official Rate and it will be immediately due and repayable, and the Company and/or the Employer may recover it at any time thereafter by any of the means referred to above. If any of the foregoing methods of collection are not allowed under applicable laws or if you fail to comply with your obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items as described in this section, the Company may refuse to deliver the Stock acquired under the Plan.

2. Exclusion of Claim. You acknowledge and agree that you will have no entitlement to compensation or damages insofar as such entitlement arises or may arise from your ceasing to have rights under or to be entitled to the Award, whether or not as a result of your termination of employment (whether the termination is in breach of contract or otherwise), or from the loss or diminution in value of the Award. Upon the grant of your Award, you shall be deemed irrevocably to have waived any such entitlement.
