The Company and its Subsidiaries devote significant financial, human and other resources to the development of their products, customer base and the general goodwill associated with their business, and the Company and its Subsidiaries diligently maintain the secrecy and confidentiality of their Confidential Information. Each and every component of the Confidential Information is sufficiently secret to derive economic value from its not being generally known to other persons. While employed by the Company and/or Subsidiary and thereafter, the Participant will hold in the strictest confidence and not use in any manner which is detrimental to the Company or its Subsidiaries or disclose to any individual or entity any Confidential Information, except as may be required by the Company or its Subsidiaries in connection with the Participant’s employment.

(ii)    accept employment or engage in a competing business that may require contact, solicitation, interference or diverting of any of the Company’s or any Subsidiary’s customers, or that may result in the disclosure, divulging, or other use, of Confidential Information or Company Materials acquired during the Participant’s employment with the Company or any Subsidiary; or

6




(iii)    solicit or encourage any customer, channel partner or vendor (or potential customer, channel partner or vendor of the Company or any Subsidiary with whom the Participant had contact while employed by the Company or any Subsidiary) to terminate or otherwise alter his, her or its relationship with the Company or any Subsidiary. The Participant understands that any person or entity that the Participant contacted during the twelve (12) months prior to the date of the Participant’s termination of employment for the purpose of soliciting sales from such person or entity shall be regarded as a “potential customer” or “potential channel partner” of the Company to whom the Company or a Subsidiary has a protectable proprietary interest.
(c)    Enforceability of Restrictive Covenants. The scope and duration of the restrictive covenants contained in this Stock Agreement are reasonable and necessary to protect a legitimate, protectable interest of the Company and its Subsidiaries.
(d)    Written Acknowledgement by Participant.

7.
Right of Setoff; Recoupment.

7




(a)    Right of Setoff. The Company or any Subsidiary may, to the extent permitted by applicable law and which would not trigger tax under Code Section 409A, deduct from and set off against any amounts the Company or Subsidiary may owe to the Participant from time to time, including amounts payable in connection with the Stock Agreement, owed as wages, fringe benefits, or other compensation owed to the Participant, such amounts as may be owed by the Participant to the Company or a Subsidiary, although the Participant shall remain liable for any part of the Participant’s payment obligation not satisfied through such deduction and setoff.  By accepting any Restricted Stock granted hereunder, the Participant agrees to any deduction or setoff under this Section 7(a).
(b)    Termination of the Stock Agreement; Recoupment. The Stock Agreement shall terminate automatically and be subject to clawback on the date the Participant violates the non-solicit, non-compete or confidentiality provisions in Sections 6(a) or 6(b) or commits an act of theft, embezzlement of funds or fraud involving money or property of the Company or any Subsidiary. Any outstanding Restricted Stock, whether vested or unvested, shall terminate automatically as of the date of such violation of Sections 6(a) or 6(b) or commission of an act of theft, embezzlement or fraud and the Participant shall forfeit such Restricted Stock. With respect to any Restricted Stock that vested within the one-year period prior to the date of such violation of Sections 6(a) or 6(b) or commission of an act of theft, embezzlement or fraud, the Participant shall pay the Company, within forty-five (45) days of receipt by the Participant of a written demand therefor, or pursuant to such other time frame as the Company, in its sole discretion, agrees to in writing with the Participant, an amount in cash determined by multiplying the number of such shares of Restricted Stock by the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of such vesting.
(c)    Injunctive Action. The Participant acknowledges that if he or she violates the terms of Sections 6 or 7, the injury that would be suffered by the Company and/or a Subsidiary as a result of a breach of the provisions of this Stock Agreement (including any provision of Section 6(a) or (b) or 7(b)) would be irreparable and that an award of monetary damages to the Company and/or a Subsidiary for such a breach would be an inadequate remedy. Consequently, the Company and/or a Subsidiary will have the right, in addition to any other rights it may have, to obtain injunctive relief to restrain any breach or threatened breach or otherwise to specifically enforce any provision of this Stock Agreement, and the Company and/or a Subsidiary will not be obligated to post bond or other security in seeking such relief. Without limiting the Company’s or Subsidiary’s rights under this Section 7 or any other remedies of the Company or a Subsidiary, if the Participant breaches any of the provisions of Section 6(a), 6(b) or 7(b), the Company will have the right to cancel this Stock Agreement.
(d)    Attorneys’ Fees. In addition to the rights available to the Company and its Subsidiaries under Sections 7(b) and (c), if the Participant violates the terms of Sections 6 or 7 at any time, the Company shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Participant of any fees and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by or on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary in enforcing the Company’s or a Subsidiary’s rights under this Section 7. In addition to any injunctive relief sought under Section 7(c) and whether or not the Company or any Subsidiary elects to make any set-off in whole or in part, if the Company or any Subsidiary does not recover by means of set-off the full amount the Participant owes to the Company or any Subsidiary, calculated as set forth in this Section 7(d), the Participant agrees to immediately pay the unpaid balance to the Company or any Subsidiary.

Net Sales” means, with respect to any period, the consolidated net sales of Zebra Technologies Corporation for that period (before adjustments for purchase accounting). Compounded Annual Growth Rate of Total Net Sales (“CAGR”) equals (A) the quotient obtained by dividing 2020 Net Sales of Zebra by $3.725 billion, (B) raised to the one-third power, minus (C) one. CAGR shall be rounded to the nearest one-hundredth of one percent. For a CAGR between threshold and target, the Vested Percentage of Restricted Stock shall be interpolated on a straight line basis and rounded to the nearest one-hundredth of one percent. For a CAGR between target and maximum, the Vested Percentage of Restricted Stock shall be interpolated on a straight line basis and rounded to the nearest one-hundredth of one percent.

Annual Net Sales Performance: The Participant is eligible for banking of a specific number of shares on an annual basis based upon an implied Net Sales annual growth rate. Unless the Committee or the Board otherwise determines in its sole discretion, the implied annual growth target will be the same as the three-year CAGR target of 4.0%. If, as of December 31 of each calendar year commencing December 31, 2018, the implied annual target is achieved, 20% of the number of Target Shares (rounded to the nearest whole Share) shall be banked. If the implied annual target for such year is not achieved, then no Shares shall be banked for such year. No interpolation or pro-ration is applied to the number of Shares if the implied annual target is not achieved and, if the implied annual target is exceeded, no additional Target Shares in respect of such year shall be banked.

Adjusted EBITDA Margin” of Zebra means, with respect to any period, the ratio of the Adjusted EBITDA of Zebra Technologies Corporation for that period over the Net Sales of Zebra Technologies Corporation for that period. “Adjusted EBITDA” means earnings before interest income and expense, taxes, depreciation, amortization and Other Income/Expense of Zebra Technologies Corporation, adjusted to remove equity-based compensation expense, adjustments for purchase accounting, and Non-Recurring Charges. “Non-Recurring Charges”, as approved by the Compensation Committee, specifically include such items as (i) one-time charges, non-operating charges or expenses incurred that are not under the control of operations management; (ii) restructuring expenses; (iii) exit expenses; (iv) acquisition,

12




integration and divestiture expenses; (v) gains or losses on the sale of assets; (vi) acquired in-process technology; (vii) impairment charges; and (viii) changes in Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The above list is not exhaustive. For an Adjusted EBITDA Margin between threshold and target, the Vested Percentage of Restricted Stock shall be interpolated on a straight line basis and rounded to the nearest one-hundredth of one percent. For an Adjusted EBITDA Margin between target and maximum, the Vested Percentage of Restricted Stock shall be interpolated on a straight line basis and rounded to the nearest one-hundredth of one percent.

Annual Adjusted EBITDA Margin Performance: The Participant is eligible for banking of a specific number of shares on an annual basis based upon achieving or exceeding an Adjusted EBITDA Margin target for such year. Unless the Committee or the Board otherwise determines in its sole discretion, the Adjusted EBITDA Margin targets for each of 2018, 2019 and 2020 is 19.0%. If the Adjusted EBITDA Margin target for any of 2018, 2019 and 2020 is achieved, 13.3% of the number of Target Shares (rounded to the nearest whole Share) shall be banked. If the Adjusted EBITDA Margin target for such year is not achieved, then no Shares shall be banked for such year. No interpolation or pro-ration is applied to the number of Shares if the Adjusted EBITDA Margin target is not achieved and, if the Adjusted EBITDA Margin target is exceeded, no additional Target Shares in respect of such year shall be banked.

The sum of the banked shares, if any, in respect of each calendar year with respect to the annual Net Sales performance and the annual Adjusted EBITDA Margin performance shall be the “Minimum Vested Shares”.

As of December 31, 2020, the greater of either (1) the Minimum Vested Shares or (2) the number of Shares determined pursuant to the first paragraph in this Exhibit A shall be the number of Shares of Restricted Stock, if any, that vest and shall be rounded to the nearest whole Share (the “Vested Shares”). For purposes of subsection (2) in the immediately preceding sentence, the Vested Percentage of Restricted Stock in respect of the Net Sales and Adjusted EBITDA Margin performance goals shall be multiplied by the number of Target Shares and the percentage of the Target Shares subject to such performance goal to determine the number of Shares pursuant to the first paragraph in this Exhibit A.

Unless the Committee or the Board otherwise determines in its sole discretion, for purposes of calculating Net Sales and Adjusted EBITDA, (A) net sales and EBITDA derived from acquisitions shall be included and (B) divestitures of subsidiaries or businesses of Zebra shall be given effect as of the effective date of the divestiture.
Changes in accounting principles shall be consistently applied.
