Terms for Restricted Shares and Restricted Share Units – 2021 Plan
The
parties agree as follows:
1.Grant of Award. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, a copy of which has been delivered to the Participant and made a part of this Award, and to the terms and conditions of this Award Agreement, the Company grants to the Participant an award of Restricted Shares or Restricted Share Units, as specified in the Award Notice, on the date and with respect to the number of Shares specified in the Award Notice.
2.Restricted Shares. If the Award is in the form of Restricted Shares, the Shares are subject to the following terms:
a.Restriction
Period. The Company will hold the Shares in escrow for the Restriction Period. During this period, the Shares shall be subject to forfeiture as provided in Section 4.
b.Removal of Restrictions. Subject to any applicable deferral election under the Johnson Controls International plc Senior Executive Deferred Compensation Plan (or any successor or similar deferred compensation plan for which the Participant is eligible) and to Section 4 below, Shares that have not been forfeited shall become available to the Participant after the last day of the Restriction Period upon payment in full of all taxes due with respect to such Shares.
c.Voting
Rights. During the Restriction Period, the Participant may exercise full voting rights with respect to the Shares.
d.Dividends and Other Distributions. Any cash dividends or other distributions paid or delivered with respect to Restricted Shares for which the record date occurs on or before the last day of the Restriction Period will be credited to a bookkeeping account for the benefit of the Participant. For U.S. domestic Participants, the account will be converted into and settled in additional Shares issued under the Plan at the end of the applicable Restriction Period; for all other Participants, the account will be paid to the Participant in cash at the end of the applicable Restriction Period. Prior to the end of the Restriction Period, such account will be subject to the same terms and conditions (including
risk of forfeiture) as the Restricted Shares to which the dividends or other distributions relate.
3.Restricted Share Units. If the Award is in the form of Restricted Share Units, the Restricted Share Units are subject to the following terms:
a.Restriction Period. During the Restriction Period, the Restricted Share Units shall be subject to forfeiture as provided in Section 4.
b.Settlement of Restricted Share Units. Subject to any applicable deferral election under the Johnson Controls International plc Senior Executive
Deferred Compensation Plan (or any successor or similar deferred compensation plan for which the Participant is eligible) and to Section 4 and Section 5 below, the Restricted Share Units shall be settled by, (a) for U.S. and United Kingdom domestic Participants, the Company’s issuance of a number of Shares to the Participant equal to the number of whole Units that have been earned; or (b) for all other Participants, payment of a cash sum to the Participant by the local entity equal to the Fair Market Value of one Share (determined as of the vesting date) multiplied by the number of whole Units that have been earned. The Shares or the cash payment shall be issued or paid in each case within forty-five (45) days after the last day of the Restriction Period (subject to a six-month delay to the extent required to comply with Code Section 409A).
c.Dividend Equivalent Units. Any cash dividends or other distributions paid or delivered with respect to the Shares for which the record date occurs on or before the last day of the Restriction Period will result in a credit to a bookkeeping account for the benefit of the Participant. The credit will be equal to the dividends or other distributions that would have been paid with respect to the Shares subject to the Restricted Share Units had such Shares been outstanding. For U.S. and United Kingdom domestic Participants, the account will be converted into and settled in additional Shares issued under the Plan at the end of the applicable
Terms for Restricted Shares and Restricted Share Units – 2021 Plan
Page 2 of 10
Restriction
Period; for all other Participants, the account will be paid to the Participant in cash or, at the discretion of the Company, converted into and settled in additional Shares issued under the Plan at the end of the applicable Restriction Period. Prior to the end of the Restriction Period, such account will be subject to the same terms and conditions (including risk of forfeiture) as the Restricted Share Units to which the dividends or other distributions relate.
4.Termination of Employment – Risk of Forfeiture.
a.Retirement. If the Participant terminates employment from the
Company and its Affiliates due to Retirement at a time when the Participant’s employment could not have been terminated for Cause, then the Participant shall become vested in, and the Restriction Period shall lapse with respect to, a pro rata portion of the total number of Restricted Shares or Restricted Share Units subject to this Award. Such pro rata portion that shall vest upon Retirement shall be calculated as follows: (i) the total number of Restricted Shares or Restricted Share Units granted under this Award multiplied by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which equals the total number of full months that the Participant was employed during the Restriction Period as of the Participant’s Termination of Employment and the denominator of which equals the total number of months in the Restriction Period, less (iii) any Restricted Shares or Restricted Share Units that previously vested in the normal course as of the Participant’s Termination of Employment. Any
Restricted Shares or Restricted Share Units subject to this Award that do not become vested under this paragraph upon the Participant’s Retirement shall automatically be forfeited and returned to the Company as of the date of his Retirement.
b.Involuntary Termination Without Cause. If the Participant’s employment with the Company and its Affiliates is terminated by the Company without Cause, then the Participant shall become vested in, and the Restriction Period shall lapse with respect to a pro rata portion of the total number of Restricted Shares or Restricted Share Units subject
to this Award. Such pro rata portion that shall vest upon the Participant’s Termination of Employment shall be calculated as follows: (i) the total number of Restricted Shares or Restricted Share Units granted under this Award multiplied by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which equals the total number of full months that the Participant was employed during the Restriction Period as of the Participant’s Termination of Employment and the denominator of which equals the total number of months in the Restriction Period, less (iii) any Restricted Shares or Restricted Share Units that previously vested in the normal course as of the Participant’s Termination of Employment. Any Restricted Shares or Restricted Share Units subject to this Award that do not become vested under this paragraph upon the Participant’s termination without Cause shall automatically be forfeited and returned to the Company
as of the Participant’s Termination of Employment.
c.Death. If the Participant’s employment with the Company and its Affiliates terminates because of death at a time when the Participant could not have been terminated for Cause, then, effective as of the date the Company determines the Participant’s employment terminated due to death (provided such determination is made no later than the end of the calendar year following the calendar year in which death occurs), the Participant shall become fully vested in all of the Restricted Shares or Restricted Share Units subject to this Award and any remaining Restriction Period shall automatically lapse.
d.Disability. If the Participant’s employment with the Company and its Affiliates terminates because of Disability at a time when the Participant could not have been terminated for Cause, then the Participant shall become fully vested in all of the Restricted Shares or Restricted Share Units subject to this Award and any remaining Restriction Period shall automatically lapse as of the date of such Termination of Employment.
e.Divestiture or Outsourcing. If the Participant’s employment with the Company and its Affiliates terminates as a result of a Disposition of Assets, Disposition
of a Subsidiary or Outsourcing Agreement (each as defined below), at a time when the Participant could not have been terminated for Cause, then the Participant shall become vested in a pro rata portion of the total number of Restricted Shares or Restricted Share Units subject to this Award. Such pro rata portion shall be calculated as follows: (i) the total number of Restricted Shares or Restricted Share Units granted under this Award multiplied by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which equals the total number of full months that the Participant was employed during the Restriction Period as of the Participant’s Termination of Employment and the denominator of which equals the total number of months in the Restriction Period, less (iii) any Restricted Shares or Restricted Share
Terms for Restricted Shares and Restricted Share Units – 2021 Plan
Page 3
of 10
Units that previously vested in the normal course as of the Participant’s Termination of Employment; provided that, if such Termination of Employment does not constitute a “separation from service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A, then any remaining Restriction Period shall continue with respect to the vested Shares or Restricted Share Units as if the Participant continued in active employment to the extent required for compliance with Code Section 409A. Any Restricted Shares or Restricted Share Units subject to this Award that do not become vested under this paragraph as a result of such Disposition of Assets, Disposition of a Subsidiary or Outsourcing Agreement shall automatically be forfeited and returned to the
Company as of the date of the Disposition of Assets, Disposition of a Subsidiary or Outsourcing Agreement, as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Participant shall not be eligible for such pro rata vesting if (A) the Participant’s Termination of Employment occurs on or prior to the closing date of such Disposition of Assets or Disposition of a Subsidiary, as applicable, or on such later date as is specifically provided in the applicable transaction agreement or related agreements, or on the effective date of such Outsourcing Agreement applicable to the Participant (the “Applicable Employment Date”), and (B) the Participant is offered Comparable Employment (as defined below) with the buyer, successor company or outsourcing agent, as applicable, but does not commence such employment on the Applicable Employment Date.
For purposes of this Section 4(d), “Comparable
Employment” shall mean employment (x) with base compensation and benefits (not including perquisites, allowances or long term incentive compensation) that, taken as whole, is not materially reduced from that which is in effect immediately prior to the Participant’s Termination of Employment and (y) that is at a geographic location no more than 50 miles from the Participant’s principal place of employment in effect immediately prior to the Participant’s Termination of Employment; “Disposition of Assets” shall mean the disposition by the Company or an Affiliate by which the Participant is employed of all or a portion of the assets used by the Company or Affiliate in a trade or business to an unrelated corporation or entity; “Disposition of a Subsidiary” shall mean the disposition by the
Company or an Affiliate of its interest in a subsidiary or controlled entity to an unrelated individual or entity (which, for the avoidance of doubt, excludes a spin-off or split-off or similar transaction), provided that such subsidiary or entity ceases to be controlled by the Company as a result of such disposition; and “Outsourcing Agreement” shall mean a written agreement between the Company or an Affiliate and an unrelated third party (“Outsourcing Agent”) pursuant to which (i) the Company transfers the performance of services previously performed by employees of the Company or Affiliate to the Outsourcing Agent,
and (ii) the Outsourcing Agent is obligated to offer employment to any employee whose employment is being terminated as a result of or in connection with said Outsourcing Agreement.
f.Other Termination. If the Participant’s employment terminates for any reason not described above (including for Cause), then any Restricted Shares or any Restricted Share Units (and all deferred dividends paid or credited thereon) still subject to the Restriction Period as of Participant’s Termination of Employment shall automatically be forfeited and returned to the Company. The Company may suspend payment or delivery of Shares (without liability for interest thereon) pending the Committee’s
determination of whether the Participant was or should have been terminated for Cause.
5.Inimical Conduct. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Committee determines at any time that a Participant has engaged in Inimical Conduct, whether before or after Termination of Employment, the Award shall be cancelled, regardless of vesting. In addition, the Committee or the Company may suspend any vesting, payment of cash or issuance of Shares hereunder pending the determination of whether the Participant has engaged in Inimical Conduct.
6.Change of Control. This Award will be treated in accordance with Section 19 of
the Plan in connection with a Change of Control.
7.Withholding. The Participant agrees to remit to the Company any foreign, Federal, state and/or local taxes (including the Participant’s FICA tax obligation) required by law to be withheld with respect to the issuance of Shares under this Award, the vesting of this Award or the payment of cash under this Award. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Award, if the Company or any Affiliate of the Company is required to withhold any Federal, state or local taxes or other amounts in connection with the Award, then the
Company may require the Participant to pay to the Company, in cash, promptly on demand, amounts sufficient to satisfy such tax obligations or make other arrangements satisfactory to the Company regarding the payment to the Company of the aggregate amount of any such taxes and other amounts. Alternatively, the Company can withhold Shares no longer restricted, or can withhold from cash or property, including cash or Shares under
Terms for Restricted Shares and Restricted Share Units – 2021 Plan
Page 4
of 10
this Award, payable or issuable to the Participant, in the amount needed to satisfy any withholding obligations; provided that, to the extent Shares are withheld to satisfy taxes, the amount to be withheld may not exceed the total maximum statutory tax withholding obligations associated with the transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to a Participant who is a Section 16 Participant, if payment hereunder is to be made in the form of Shares, then any withholding obligations shall be satisfied by the Company withholding Shares otherwise issuable under this Award unless the Committee approves an alternative method by which the Participant shall pay such withholding taxes.
8.No Claim for Forfeiture. Neither the Award nor any benefit accruing to the Participant from the Award will be considered to be part of the Participant’s normal or expected compensation or salary for any purposes, including, but not limited to, calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, end-of-service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar payments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Award, in no event may the Award or any benefit accruing to the Participant from the Award be considered as compensation for, or relating in any way to, past services for the Company or any Affiliate. In consideration of the Award, no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from forfeiture of
the Award resulting from termination of the Participant’s employment by the Company or any Affiliate (for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of local labor laws) and the Participant irrevocably releases the Company and its Affiliates from any such claim that may arise. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen, then, by acknowledging the grant, the Participant shall have been deemed irrevocably to have waived any entitlement to pursue such claim.
9.Electronic Delivery. The Company or its Affiliates
