TERMS AND CONDITIONS (the “RSU TERMS AND CONDITIONS”)
These RSU Terms and Conditions, including the relevant addendum, are a part of each International Flavors & Fragrances Inc. (the “Company”) RSU Award Agreement made under the Plan, which is hereby incorporated by reference.
Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Plan. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of these RSU Terms and Conditions and the Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall govern.
1. | Amount of RSU Award. As of the Grant Date, the Participant shall be eligible to receive an RSU Award in the number of RSUs specified on the first page of the RSU Award Agreement. The RSU Award provides Participant with a contractual right to receive one share of Stock for each RSU being settled upon vesting. |
2. | Eligibility for Award. A Participant’s eligibility for an RSU Award shall be at the discretion of the Committee as authorized in Section 5 of the Plan. The grant of an RSU Award is a one-time benefit and does not create any contractual or other right to receive any future RSU Award. |
3. | Vesting and Account. The RSU Award vests on the date set forth on the first page of the RSU Award Agreement if not previously forfeited, and is 0% vested before expiration of this period. Prior to vesting, the Company or its designated agent shall maintain a bookkeeping account reflecting the number of RSUs credited to a Participant’s account. |
4. | Settlement of the Award. Upon vesting, the RSU Award will be settled by delivery of one share of Stock as of the Vesting Date, for each RSU being settled. Such settlement shall occur promptly on or following the vesting of each RSU. |
5. | Voting Rights and Dividends. RSUs do not provide voting or dividend rights until fully vested and no dividends or dividend equivalents will be paid or credited on any unvested RSUs. |
6. | Termination of Employment. A Participant’s rights under the RSU Award following termination of employment or leave of absence shall be determined in accordance with the following provisions: |
a. | Termination Not for Cause, Death or Disability. If the Participant is involuntarily terminated not for Cause or terminates employment due to death or disability prior to June 13, 2015, then one half (10,000) of the outstanding unvested RSUs will become immediately vested. If the Participant is involuntarily terminated not for Cause or terminates employment due to death or disability on or after June 13, 2015, then a pro-rata portion of all outstanding unvested RSUs shall become immediately vested. Upon vesting, such RSUs shall be settled promptly. The |
June, 2014
pro-rata portion shall be determined by multiplying the number of unvested RSUs by a fraction, the numerator of which is (x) the number of days from the Grant Date to the Participant’s termination of employment and (y) the denominator of which is 730. A Participant’s RSUs that have not vested before such termination of employment under this subsection 6(a) will be immediately forfeited.
b. | Resignation, Termination With Cause or Retirement. If a Participant resigns, is terminated by the Company for Cause or terminates employment due to Normal or Early Retirement, then all outstanding unvested RSUs will be immediately forfeited. |
7. | Change in Control. In the event the Company undergoes a “Change in Control” as defined in Section 9 of the Plan, RSU Awards shall be treated as provided for in Section 9 of the Plan. |
8. | Clawback and Recoupment Provisions. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the RSU Award shall be subject to the clawback, recoupment and forfeiture provisions of Section 10 of the Plan and Section 7 of the ESP. By acknowledging the RSU Award Agreement, the Participant acknowledges that any and all RSU Awards previously granted to the Participant under Section 6 or Section 7 of the Plan prior to the Grant Date, and any other cash or Stock provided to the Participant prior to or following the Grant Date under the RSU Award or otherwise under the Plan, are subject to the provisions of Section 10 of the Plan and Section 7 of the ESP. |
9. | Limits on Transfers of Awards. Except as provided by the Committee, no RSU Award and no right under any RSU Award, shall be assignable, alienable, saleable, or transferable by a Participant other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution in accordance with Section 11(b) of the Plan. |
