(For Phantom Stock Awarded Under Long-Term Incentive Program)

This Award Notice and Agreement (this “Agreement”) is between Insperity, Inc. (the “Company”) and _______________ (the “Grantee”), an employee of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries, regarding an award (this “Award”) of _____________ shares (the “Target Amount”) of Phantom Stock (as defined in the Insperity, Inc. Long-Term Incentive Program (“LTIP”) adopted under the Insperity, Inc. 2012 Incentive Plan (the “2012 Incentive Plan”)), awarded to the Grantee on ______________ (the “Grant Date”), subject to the following terms and conditions:
1.Relationship to LTIP. This Award is granted under the 2012 Incentive Plan pursuant to an award under the LTIP and is subject to all of the terms, conditions and provisions of, and administrative interpretations under, the 2012 Incentive Plan and the LTIP, if any, which have been adopted by the Committee thereunder. Any question of interpretation arising under this Agreement shall be determined by the Committee and its determinations shall be final and conclusive upon all parties in interest. Except as defined herein, capitalized terms shall have the same meanings ascribed to them under the LTIP, however, in the absence thereof, capitalized terms herein shall have the same meanings ascribed to them under the 2012 Incentive Plan.
2.    Performance Determination; Vesting; Change in Control.
(a)    Performance Determination. The Grantee’s Final Award, if any, shall be equal to the number of shares of Phantom Stock resulting from the Committee’s determination of the achievement of the Performance Goal(s) over the Performance Period(s) specified on Schedule A attached hereto.
(b)    Vesting. Subject to Sections 3 and 4 below, the Grantee shall become vested in the Grantee’s Final Award upon the final Valuation Date of the last Performance Period applicable to this Award (the “Final Valuation Date”), provided that the Grantee has been in continuous Employment since the Grant Date though the Final Valuation Date.
(c)    Change in Control. Upon a Change in Control after the Grant Date and prior to the Final Valuation Date, the Final Award shall be deemed to be the greater of (i) the Final Award as determined based on the actual performance achieved for the Performance Goal(s) through the last Performance Period applicable to the Award (if multiple Performance Periods), adjusted such that the Performance Period is deemed to end on the date of the Change in Control or (ii) the Target Level (as applicable, the “Change in Control Value”).
3.    Qualifying Termination; Death; Disability.
(a)    Qualifying Termination. Notwithstanding Section 2(b) above, if the Grantee remains in continuous Employment from the Grant Date through the date of the Grantee’s Qualifying Termination that occurs prior to the Final Valuation Date, then, upon the date of the Grantee’s Qualifying Termination, the Grantee shall vest in a Final Award equal to the Change in Control Value.




(b)    Death or Disability. Notwithstanding Section 2(b) above, if the Grantee remains in continuous Employment from the Grant Date through the date of the Grantee’s death or Disability that occurs prior to the Final Valuation Date, then the Grantee shall be entitled to a Final Award based on actual achievement of the Performance Goal(s) during the Performance Period(s) pro-rated by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the total number of days of the Grantee’s Employment from the Grant Date through the date of the Grantee’s death or Disability, as applicable, and the denominator of which shall be the total number of days encompassing the first day of the first Performance Period and the last day of the last Performance Period applicable to the Award (if multiple Performance Periods).
4.    Forfeiture of Award. If the Grantee’s Employment terminates other than by reason of death, Disability or Qualifying Termination prior to the Final Valuation Date, this Award shall be forfeited as of the date of the Grantee’s termination of Employment. Except in the case of a Qualifying Termination, the Company has sole discretionary authority to determine when a Grantee’s Employment terminates for all purposes under this Agreement, the LTIP and the 2012 Incentive Plan.
5.    Settlement of Final Award. Settlement of the Grantee’s Final Award, if any, as determined pursuant to Section 2, Section 3(a) or Section 3(b) shall be made in the form of shares of Common Stock on the date that is seventy-five (75) days after the end of the last Performance Period applicable to the Award.
6.    No Voting Rights; Dividend Equivalents.
(a)    The Grantee shall have no voting rights in connection with Phantom Stock.
(b)    If any dividends are paid with respect to the Common Stock between the Grant Date and the date of settlement of the Grantee’s Final Award, the Grantee will be conditionally credited with Dividend Equivalents. Upon settlement of the Grantee’s Final Award, the Grantee will receive additional shares of Common Stock determined by (i) multiplying the aggregate amount of Dividend Equivalents credited between the Grant Date and the date of settlement of the Grantee’s Final Award for a share of Phantom Stock, by the total number of shares of Phantom Stock covered by the Grantee’s Final Award and (ii) dividing such product by the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding the date of settlement of the Final Award (rounded up to the next whole number of shares).

7.    Limitation on Delivery of Shares. The Company shall not be obligated to deliver any shares of Common Stock if counsel to the Company determines that such sale or delivery would violate any applicable law or any rule or regulation of any governmental authority or any rule or regulation of, or agreement of the Company with, any national securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system upon which the Common Stock is listed or quoted. In no event shall the Company be obligated to take any affirmative action in order to cause the delivery of shares of Common Stock to comply with any such law, rule, regulation or agreement.

9.    Award is Unfunded. Nothing in this Agreement, the LTIP or the Plan shall require the Company to segregate or set aside any funds or other property for the purpose of paying any portion of an Award. No Participant, beneficiary or other person shall have any right, title or interest in any amount awarded under this Agreement, the LTIP or the Plan before the payment date for the Award, or in any property of the Company or a Subsidiary.

The Company’s obligation to deliver shares of Common Stock to the Grantee upon settlement of this Award shall be subject to the satisfaction of all applicable federal, state and local income and employment tax withholding requirements (the “Required Withholding”). The Company shall withhold from the Common Stock that would otherwise have been delivered to the Grantee the number of shares necessary to satisfy the Grantee’s Required Withholding, and deliver the remaining whole shares of Common Stock to the Grantee, unless the Grantee has made arrangements with the Company for the Grantee to deliver to the Company cash, a check or other available funds for the full amount of the Required Withholding by 5:00 p.m. Central Standard Time on the date the shares of Common Stock become vested. The amount of the Required Withholding and the number of shares of Common Stock to be withheld by the Company, if applicable, to satisfy the Grantee’s Required Withholding, shall be based on the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock on the first trading date prior to the applicable settlement date and shall be limited to the withholding amount calculated using the minimum statutory withholding rates.
