Your award will vest on the following date(s) provided that you do not experience a Termination (as such term is defined in the Plan) (each date, a Vesting Date). |
1. | Termination: In the event you experience a Termination prior to a Vesting Date, the following provisions will govern the vesting of this Award: |
(a) | Termination Generally: In the event of your Termination prior to a Vesting Date for any reason other than due to your death or Total Disability, this Award will cease to vest and you will have no right or claim to the unvested portion of the Award. | ||
(b) | Termination due to Death: In the event of your Termination prior to a Vesting Date due to your death, this Award will vest on the date of your Termination as to 100% of the Number of Shares. | ||
(c) | Termination due to Total Disability: In the event of your Termination prior to a Vesting Date due to your Total Disability, this Award will vest on the date of your Termination as to 100% of the Number of Shares. Total Disability is defined in Section 10.5(d) of the Plan. |
2. | Corporate Transaction: In the event of a Corporate Transaction, this Award will vest as to 100% of the Shares. | |
3. | Issuance of Shares under this Award: The Company will issue you the Shares subject to this Award (a) as soon as practicable after the Vesting Dates or, if applicable, the events described in Sections 1(b) and (c) and 2 above, and in no case later than March 15 of the year following the year of vesting or of such events, or (b) in the event that you make a valid election at a time and in the manner permitted under Section 409A of the Code, at the time specified in your election. All issuances of Shares will be subject to the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. Until the date the Shares are issued to you, you will have no rights as a stockholder of the Company. | |
4. | Taxes: You are ultimately liable and responsible for all taxes owed by you in connection with this Award. The Company makes no representation or undertaking regarding the tax treatment of the grant, vesting, or settlement of this Award or the subsequent sale of any of the Shares. The Company does not commit and is under no obligation to structure this Award to reduce or eliminate your tax liability. [Note: in the event that the recipient |
of this award is an employee, this section may also include the following: Withholding Taxes: This Award is generally taxable for purposes of United States federal income and employment taxes upon vesting based on the Fair Market Value on Vesting Date. To the extent required by applicable federal, state or other law, you shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for the payment and satisfaction of any income tax, social security tax, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax related to withholding obligations that arise under this Award and, if applicable, any sale of Shares of the Common Stock. The Company shall not be required to issue shares of the Common Stock pursuant to this Award or to recognize any purported transfer of shares of the Common Stock until such obligations are satisfied. Unless otherwise agreed to by the Company and you, these obligations will be satisfied by the Company withholding a number of shares of Common Stock that would otherwise be issued under this Award that the Company determines has a Fair Market Value sufficient to meet the tax withholding obligations. For purposes of this Award, Fair Market Value is defined in Section 26(n) of the Plan.] |
5. | Disputes: Any question concerning the interpretation of this Agreement and any controversy that may arise under this Agreement, shall be determined by the Committee. Such decision by the Committee shall be final and binding. | |
6. | Choice of Law: Because this Agreement relates to terms and conditions under which you may be issued shares of Common Stock of Intuit Inc., a Delaware corporation, an essential term of this Agreement is that it shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to choice of law principles of Delaware or other jurisdictions. Any action, suit, or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the Award granted hereunder shall be brought in the state or federal courts of competent jurisdiction in Santa Clara County in the State of California. | |
[Note: in the event that the recipient of this award is an employee, this agreement may also include the following section: | ||
7. | Other Matters: |
(a) | The Award granted to an employee in any one year, or at any time, does not obligate the Company or any subsidiary or other affiliate of the Company to grant an award in any future year or in any given amount and should not create an expectation that the Company (or any subsidiary or other affiliate) might grant an award in any future year or in any given amount. | ||
(b) | Nothing contained in this Agreement creates or implies an employment contract or term of employment or any promise of specific treatment upon which you may rely.] |
This Agreement, together with the Plan and any documentation evidencing a deferral of your
Restricted Stock Units (which are incorporated by reference), constitute the entire agreement
between you and the Company with respect to this Award, and supersede all prior agreements or
promises with respect to the Award. Except as provided in the Plan, this Agreement may be amended
only by a written document signed by the Company and you. Subject to the terms of the Plan, the
Company may assign any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, and this Agreement shall
be binding on, and inure to the benefit of, the successors and assigns of the Company. Subject to
the restrictions on transfer of an Award described in Section 14 of the Plan, this Agreement shall
be binding on your permitted successors and assigns (including heirs, executors, administrators and
legal representatives). All notices required under this Agreement, your deferral documentation or
the Plan must be mailed or hand-delivered, (1) in the case of the Company, to the Company at its
address set forth in this Agreement, or at such other address designated in writing by the Company
to you, and (2) in the case of you, at the address recorded in the books and records of the Company
