HP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
Note 1: Basis of Presentation
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements of HP and its wholly-owned subsidiaries are prepared in conformity with United States (“U.S.”) generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The interim financial information is unaudited but reflects all normal adjustments that are necessary to provide a fair statement of results for the interim periods presented. This interim information should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2019 in the Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed on December 12, 2019. The Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheet for October 31, 2019 was derived from audited financial statements.
Principles of Consolidation
The Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements include the accounts of HP and its subsidiaries and affiliates in which HP has a controlling financial interest or is the primary beneficiary. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in HP’s Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ materially from those estimates. 
Separation Transaction
On November 1, 2015, Hewlett-Packard Company completed the separation of Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company (“Hewlett Packard Enterprise”), Hewlett-Packard Company’s former enterprise technology infrastructure, software, services and financing businesses (the “Separation”). In connection with the Separation, HP and Hewlett Packard Enterprise entered into a separation and distribution agreement, an employee matters agreement and various other agreements which remain enforceable and provide a framework for the continuing relationships between the parties. For more information on the impacts of these agreements, see Note 6, “Supplementary Financial Information”, Note 12, “Litigation and Contingencies” and Note 13, “Guarantees, Indemnifications and Warranties”.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2017, the FASB issued guidance, which amends the existing accounting standards for derivatives and hedging. The amendment improves the financial reporting of hedging relationships to better represent the economic results of an entity’s risk management activities in its financial statements and made certain targeted improvements to simplify the application of the hedge accounting guidance in current U.S. GAAP. HP adopted this guidance in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020. The implementation of this guidance did not have a material impact on its Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued amended guidance on the accounting for leasing transactions. The primary objective of this update is to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by requiring lessees to recognize a lease liability for the obligation to make lease payments and a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset for the right to use the underlying asset over the lease term. The guidance also results in some changes to lessor accounting and requires additional disclosures about all leasing arrangements.
HP adopted the standard (the “new lease standard”) as of November 1, 2019 using a modified retrospective approach, with the cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of accumulated deficit as of the adoption date. HP elected to apply the practical expedient using the transition option whereby prior comparative periods were not retrospectively adjusted in the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements. HP also elected the package of practical expedients, which does not require reassessment of initial direct costs, classification of a lease, and definition of a lease. The Company has elected not to record leases with an initial term of 12 months or less on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. Lease expense on such leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. HP has also elected the lessee practical expedient to combine lease and non-lease components for certain asset classes.
The adoption of the new lease standard resulted in the recognition of $1.2 billion in operating lease liabilities and $1.2 billion of related ROU assets on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. The net impact of adoption to accumulated deficit as on November 1, 2019 is not considered material. As of November 1, 2019, there were no material finance leases for which HP was a lessee.
The new lease standard also made some changes to lessor accounting, including alignment with the new revenue recognition standard. HP now records revenue upfront on certain aspects of its as-a-service offerings and will reflect the financing of these offerings as cash flows from financing activities on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Cash Flows. These changes did not have a material impact on the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.

HP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements (Continued)
(Unaudited)
Note 1: Basis of Presentation (Continued)

Refer to Note 14 “Leases” for additional disclosures related to leases.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In June 2016, the FASB issued guidance, which requires credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected, not based on incurred losses. Further, credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities should be recorded through an allowance for credit losses limited to the amount by which fair value is below amortized cost. HP is required to adopt the guidance in the first quarter of fiscal year 2021. Earlier adoption is permitted. HP is currently evaluating the timing and the impact of this guidance on the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.
Revenue Recognition
General
HP recognizes revenues at a point in time or over time depicting the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which HP expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. HP follows the five-step model for revenue recognition as summarized below:
1. Identify the contract with a customer - A contract with customer exists when (i) it is approved and signed by all parties,
(ii) each party’s rights and obligations can be identified, (iii) payment terms are defined, (iv) it has commercial substance and (v) the customer has the ability and intent to pay. HP evaluates customers’ ability to pay based on various factors like historical payment experience, financial metrics and customer credit scores. While the majority of our sales contracts contain standard terms and conditions, there are certain contracts with non-standard terms and conditions.
2. Identify the performance obligations in the contract - HP evaluates each performance obligation in an arrangement to
determine whether it is distinct, such as hardware and/or service. A performance obligation constitutes distinct goods or services when the customer can benefit from such goods or services either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available to the customer and the performance obligation is distinct within the context of the contract.
3. Determine the transaction price - Transaction price is the amount of consideration to which HP expects to be entitled in
exchange for transferring goods or services to the customer. If the transaction price includes a variable amount, HP estimates the amount it expects to be entitled to using either the expected value or the most likely amount method.
HP reduces the transaction price at the time of revenue recognition for customer and distributor programs and incentive
offerings, rebates, promotions, other volume-based incentives and expected returns. HP uses estimates to determine the expected variable consideration for such programs based on factors like historical experience, expected consumer behavior and market conditions.
HP has elected the practical expedient of not accounting for significant financing components if the period between
revenue recognition and when the customer pays for the product or service is one year or less.
4. Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract - When a sales arrangement contains multiple
performance obligations, such as hardware and/or services, HP allocates revenue to each performance obligation in proportion to their selling price. The selling price for each performance obligation is based on its Standalone Selling Price (“SSP”). HP establishes SSP using the price charged for a performance obligation when sold separately (“observable price”) and, in some instances, using the price established by management having the relevant authority. When observable price is not available, HP establishes SSP based on management judgment considering internal factors such as margin objectives, pricing practices and controls, customer segment pricing strategies and the product life-cycle. Consideration is also given to market conditions such as competitor pricing strategies and technology industry life cycles.
5. Recognize revenue when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied - Revenue is recognized when, or as, a
performance obligation is satisfied by transferring control of a promised good or service to a customer. HP generally invoices the customer upon delivery of the goods or services and the payments are due as per contract terms. For fixed price support or maintenance contracts that are in the nature of stand-ready obligations, payments are generally received in advance from customers and revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the duration of the contract.
HP reports revenue net of any taxes collected from customers and remitted to government authorities, and the collected taxes are recorded as other current liabilities until remitted to the relevant government authority. HP includes costs related to shipping and handling in cost of revenue.
HP records revenue on a gross basis when HP is a principal in the transaction and on a net basis when HP is acting as an agent between the customer and the vendor. HP considers several factors to determine whether it is acting as a principal or an agent, most notably whether HP is the primary obligor to the customer, has established its own pricing and has inventory and credit risks.

Note 1: Basis of Presentation (Continued)

Hardware
HP transfers control of the products to the customer at the time the product is delivered to the customer and recognizes revenue accordingly, unless customer acceptance is uncertain or significant obligations to the customer remain unfulfilled. HP records revenue from the sale of equipment under sales-type leases as revenue at the commencement of the lease.
Services
HP recognizes revenue from fixed-price support, maintenance and other service contracts over time depicting the pattern of service delivery and recognizes the costs associated with these contracts as incurred.
Contract Assets and Liabilities
Contract assets are rights to consideration in exchange for goods or services that HP has transferred to a customer when such right is conditional on something other than the passage of time. Such contract assets are not material to HP’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
Contract liabilities are recorded as deferred revenues when amounts invoiced to customers are more than the revenues recognized or when payments are received in advance for fixed price support or maintenance contracts. The short-term and long-term deferred revenues are reported within the other current liabilities and other non-current liabilities respectively.
Cost to obtain a contract and fulfillment cost
Incremental direct costs of obtaining a contract primarily consist of sales commissions. HP has elected the practical expedient to expense as incurred the costs to obtain a contract with a benefit period equal to or less than one year. For contracts with a period of benefit greater than one year, HP capitalizes incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer and amortizes these costs over their expected period of benefit provided such costs are recoverable.
Fulfillment costs consist of set-up and transition costs related to other service contracts. These costs generate or enhance resources of HP that will be used in satisfying the performance obligation in the future and are capitalized and amortized over the expected period of the benefit, provided such costs are recoverable.
See Note 6, “Supplementary Financial Information” for details on net revenue by region, cost to obtain a contract and fulfillment cost, contract liabilities and value of remaining performance obligations.
Leases
At the inception of a contract, HP assesses whether the contract is, or contains, a lease. The assessment is based on (1) whether the contract involves the use of a distinct identified asset, (2) whether HP obtains the right to substantially all the economic benefit from the use of the asset throughout the period, and (3) whether HP has the right to direct the use of the asset.
All significant lease arrangements are recognized at lease commencement. Leases with a lease term of 12 months or less at inception are not recorded on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets and are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term in the Consolidated Condensed Statement of Earnings. HP determines the lease term by assuming the exercise of renewal options that are reasonably certain. As most of the leases do not provide an implicit interest rate, HP uses the unsecured borrowing rate and risk-adjusts that rate to approximate a collateralized rate at the commencement date to determine the present value of future payments that are reasonably certain.

Note 2. Segment Information
HP is a leading global provider of personal computing and other access devices, imaging and printing products, and related technologies, solutions and services. HP sells to individual consumers, small- and medium-sized businesses (“SMBs”) and large enterprises, including customers in the government, health and education sectors.
HP’s operations are organized into three reportable segments: Personal Systems, Printing and Corporate Investments. HP’s organizational structure is based on many factors that the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) uses to evaluate, view and run its business operations, which include, but are not limited to, customer base and homogeneity of products and technology. The segments are based on this organizational structure and information reviewed by HP’s CODM to evaluate segment results. The CODM uses several metrics to evaluate the performance of the overall business, including earnings from operations, and uses these results to allocate resources to each of the segments.
A summary description of each segment is as follows:
Personal Systems offers commercial and consumer desktop and notebook personal computers (“PCs”), workstations, thin clients, commercial mobility devices, retail point-of-sale (“POS”) systems, displays and other related accessories, software, support and services. HP groups commercial notebooks, commercial desktops, commercial services, commercial mobility devices, commercial detachables and convertibles, workstations, retail POS systems and thin clients into commercial PCs and consumer notebooks, consumer desktops, consumer services and consumer detachables into consumer PCs when describing performance in these markets. Described below are HP’s global business capabilities within Personal Systems:
Commercial PCs are optimized for use by enterprise, public sector and SMB customers, with a focus on robust designs, security, serviceability, connectivity, reliability and manageability in networked and cloud-based environments. Additionally, HP offers a range of services and solutions to enterprise, public sector and SMB customers to help them manage the lifecycle of their PC and mobility installed base. 
Consumer PCs are optimized for consumer usage, focusing on gaming, consuming multi-media for entertainment, managing personal life activities, staying connected, sharing information, getting things done for work including creating content, staying informed and security.

Primarily includes the fiscal 2017 plan along with other legacy plans, all of which are substantially complete. HP does not expect any further material activity associated with these plans.

(2) 
Includes reclassification of liability related to the Enhanced Early Retirement (“EER”) plan of $44 million for certain healthcare and medical savings account benefits to pension and post-retirement plans. See Note 4 “Retirement and Post -Retirement Benefit Plans” for further information.

Fiscal 2020 Plan
On September 30, 2019, HP’s Board of Directors approved the Fiscal 2020 Plan intended to optimize and simplify its operating model and cost structure that HP expects will be implemented through fiscal 2022. HP expects to reduce global headcount by approximately 7,000 to 9,000 employees through a combination of employee exits and voluntary EER. HP estimates that it will incur pre-tax charges of approximately $1.0 billion relating to labor and non-labor actions. HP expects to incur approximately $0.9 billion primarily in labor costs related to workforce reductions and the remaining costs will relate to non-labor actions and other charges.
Other charges
Other charges include non-recurring costs, including those as a result of Separation, information technology rationalization efforts and proxy contest activities, and are distinct from ongoing operational costs. These costs primarily relate to third-party legal, professional services and other non-recurring costs. For the three months ended January 31, 2020 and 2019, HP incurred $34 million and $2 million of other charges, respectively.

Employer Contributions and Funding Policy
HP’s policy is to fund its pension plans so that it makes at least the minimum contribution required by local government, funding and taxing authorities.
During fiscal year 2020, HP anticipates making contributions of approximately $76 million to its non-U.S. pension plans, approximately $36 million to its U.S. non-qualified plan participants and approximately $6 million to cover benefit claims under HP’s post-retirement benefit plans. During the three months ended January 31, 2020, HP contributed $13 million to its non-U.S. pension plans, paid $7 million to cover benefit payments to U.S. non-qualified plan participants and paid $1 million to cover benefit claims under HP’s post-retirement benefit plans.
HP’s pension and other post-retirement benefit costs and obligations depend on various assumptions. Differences between expected and actual returns on investments and changes in discount rates and other actuarial assumptions are reflected as unrecognized gains or losses, and such gains or losses are amortized to earnings in future periods. A deterioration in the funded status of a plan could result in a need for additional company contributions or an increase in net pension and post-retirement benefit costs in future periods. Actuarial gains or losses are determined at the measurement date and amortized over the remaining service life for active plans or the life expectancy of plan participants for frozen plans.
Retirement Incentive Program
As part of the Fiscal 2020 Plan, HP announced the voluntary EER program for its U.S. employees in October 2019. Voluntary participation in the EER program was limited to those employees who are at least 50 years old with 20 or more years of service at HP. Employees accepted into the EER program will leave HP on dates ranging from December 31, 2019 to September 30, 2020. The EER benefit will be a cash lump sum payment which is calculated based on years of service at HP at the time of the retirement and ranging from 13 to 52 weeks of pay.
All employees participating in the EER program were offered the opportunity to continue health care coverage at the active employee contribution rates for up to 36 months following retirement. In addition, HP provided up to $12,000 in employer credits under the Retirement Medical Savings Account (“RMSA”) program. In relation to the continued health care coverage and employer credits under the RMSA program, HP recognized a special termination benefit cost of $44 million as restructuring and other charges for the three months ended January 31, 2020.

Note 5: Taxes on Earnings
Provision for Taxes
HP’s effective tax rate was 22.8% and 10.8% for the three months ended January 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The difference between the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21% and HP’s effective tax rate for the three months ended January 31, 2020 is primarily due to the accrual of uncertain tax positions in various jurisdictions, partially offset by favorable tax rates associated with certain earnings from HP’s operations in lower-tax jurisdictions throughout the world. For the three months ended January 31, 2019, HP’s effective tax rate generally differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% due to favorable tax rates associated with certain earnings from HP’s operations in lower-tax jurisdictions throughout the world.
During the three months ended January 31, 2020, HP recorded $7 million of net income tax benefits related to discrete items in the provision for taxes. This amount included tax benefits of $48 million and $7 million related to restructuring and other net tax benefits, respectively. These benefits were partially offset by uncertain tax position charges of $48 million. For the period ended January 31, 2020, excess tax benefits associated with stock options, restricted stock units and performance-adjusted restricted stock units were immaterial.
During the three months ended January 31, 2019, HP recorded $9 million of net tax benefits related to discrete items in the provision for taxes. HP completed its analysis of the full impact of The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“TCJA”) as of January 31, 2019 and recorded tax benefit of $21 million related to final tax reform adjustments and recorded a tax benefit of $12 million related to restructuring. These benefits were partially offset by uncertain tax position charges of $20 million and other tax charges of $4 million. In addition to the discrete items mentioned above, HP recorded excess tax benefits of $27 million associated with stock options, restricted stock units and performance-adjusted restricted stock units.
Uncertain Tax Positions
As of January 31, 2020, the amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits was $975 million, of which up to $836 million would affect HP’s effective tax rate if realized. Total gross unrecognized tax benefits increased by $46 million for the three months ended January 31, 2020. HP recognizes interest income from favorable settlements and interest expense and penalties accrued on unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for taxes in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. As of January 31, 2020 and 2019, HP had accrued $61 million and $181 million, respectively, for interest and penalties.
HP engages in continuous discussions and negotiations with taxing authorities regarding tax matters in various jurisdictions. HP expects to complete resolution of certain tax years with various tax authorities within the next 12 months. HP believes it is reasonably possible that its existing gross unrecognized tax benefits may be reduced by $145 million within the next 12 months of which up to $116 million would affect HP’s effective tax rate if realized.
HP is subject to income tax in the United States and approximately 58 other countries and is subject to routine corporate income tax audits in many of these jurisdictions. In addition, HP is subject to numerous ongoing audits by federal, state and foreign tax authorities. The U.S. Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) is conducting an audit of HP’s 2016 income tax return.

HP has third-party arrangements, consisting of revolving short-term financing, which provide liquidity to certain partners to facilitate their working capital requirements. These financing arrangements, which in certain circumstances may contain partial recourse, result in a transfer of HP’s receivables and risk to the third party. As these transfers qualify as true sales under the applicable accounting guidance, the receivables are de-recognized from the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets upon transfer, and HP receives a payment for the receivables from the third party within a mutually agreed upon time period. For arrangements involving an element of recourse, the recourse obligation is measured using market data from the similar transactions and reported as a current liability in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. The recourse obligations as of January 31, 2020 and October 31, 2019 were not material. The costs associated with the sales of trade receivables for the three months ended January 31, 2020 and 2019 were not material.

Value of Remaining Performance Obligations
As of January 31, 2020, the estimated value of transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations was $4.5 billion. HP expects to recognize approximately $1.9 billion of the unearned amount in next 12 months and $2.6 billion thereafter.
HP has elected the practical expedients and accordingly does not disclose the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations if:
the contract has an original expected duration of one year or less; or
the revenue from the performance obligation is recognized over time on an as-invoiced basis when the amount corresponds directly with the value to the customer; or
the portion of the transaction price that is variable in nature is allocated entirely to a wholly unsatisfied performance obligation.
The remaining performance obligations are subject to change and may be affected by various factors, such as termination of contracts, contract modifications and adjustment for currency.
Costs of Obtaining Contracts
As of January 31, 2020, deferred contract fulfillment and acquisition costs balances were $51 million and $32 million, respectively, included in Other Current Assets and Other Non-Current Assets in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheet. During the three months ended January 31, 2020, the Company amortized $24 million of these costs.
Contract Liabilities
As of January 31, 2020 and October 31, 2019, HP’s contract liabilities balances were $2.2 billion and $2.1 billion, respectively, included in Other Current Liabilities and Other Non-Current Liabilities in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheet.
The increase in the contract liabilities balance for the three months ended January 31, 2020 is primarily driven by sales of fixed price support and maintenance services, partially offset by $361 million of revenue recognized that were included in the opening contract liabilities balance as of October 31, 2019.

Note 7: Fair Value
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
Fair Value Hierarchy
HP uses valuation techniques that are based upon observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs are developed using market data such as publicly available information and reflect the assumptions market participants would use, while unobservable inputs are developed using the best information available about the assumptions market participants would use.
Assets and liabilities are classified in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement:
Level 1—Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2—Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability and market-corroborated inputs.
Level 3—Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to observable inputs and lowest priority to unobservable inputs.
The following table presents HP’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

(1) Government debt includes instruments such as U.S. treasury notes, U.S agency securities and non-U.S. government bonds. Money market funds invested in government debt and traded in active markets are included in Level 1.
Valuation Techniques
Cash Equivalents and Investments: HP holds time deposits, money market funds, mutual funds, other debt securities primarily consisting of corporate and foreign government notes and bonds, and common stock and equivalents. HP values cash equivalents and equity investments using quoted market prices, alternative pricing sources, including net asset value, or models utilizing market observable inputs. The fair value of debt investments was based on quoted market prices or model-driven valuations using inputs primarily derived from or corroborated by observable market data, and, in certain instances, valuation models that utilize assumptions which cannot be corroborated with observable market data.
Derivative Instruments: From time to time, HP uses forward contracts, interest rate and total return swaps and, at times, option contracts to hedge certain foreign currency interest rate and return on certain investment exposures. HP uses industry standard valuation models to measure fair value. Where applicable, these models project future cash flows and discount the future amounts to present value using market-based observable inputs, including interest rate curves, HP and counterparty credit risk, foreign exchange rates, and forward and spot prices for currencies and interest rates. See Note 8, “Financial Instruments” for a further discussion of HP’s use of derivative instruments.
Other Fair Value Disclosures
Short- and Long-Term Debt: HP estimates the fair value of its debt primarily using an expected present value technique, which is based on observable market inputs using interest rates currently available to companies of similar credit standing for similar terms and remaining maturities and considering its own credit risk. The portion of HP’s debt that is hedged is reflected in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets as an amount equal to the debt’s carrying amount and a fair value adjustment

Note 7: Fair Value (Continued)

representing changes in the fair value of the hedged debt obligations arising from movements in benchmark interest rates. The fair value of HP’s short- and long-term debt was $5.1 billion as of January 31, 2020, compared to its carrying amount of $4.9 billion at that date. The fair value of HP’s short- and long-term debt was $5.4 billion as of October 31, 2019, compared to its carrying value of $5.1 billion at that date. If measured at fair value in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets, short- and long-term debt would be classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Other Financial Instruments: For the balance of HP’s financial instruments, primarily accounts receivable, accounts payable and financial liabilities included in Other current liabilities on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their short maturities. If measured at fair value in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets, these other financial instruments would be classified in Level 2 or Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Non-Marketable Equity Investments and Non-Financial Assets: HP’s non-marketable equity investments are measured at cost less impairment, adjusted for observable price changes. HP’s non-financial assets, such as intangible assets, goodwill and property, plant and equipment, are recorded at fair value in the period an impairment charge is recognized. If measured at fair value in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets these would generally be classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

HP classifies its marketable debt securities as available-for-sale investments within Other current assets on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets, including those with maturity dates beyond one year, based on their highly liquid nature and availability for use in current operations.
All highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the date of acquisition are considered cash equivalents. As of January 31, 2020 and October 31, 2019, the carrying amount of cash equivalents approximated fair value due to the short period of time to maturity. The estimated fair value of the available-for-sale investments may not be representative of values that will be realized in the future.
Contractual maturities of investments in available-for-sale debt securities were as follows:

Equity securities in privately held companies are included in Other non-current assets in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. These amounted to $46 million and $46 million as of January 31, 2020 and October 31, 2019, respectively.
Derivative Instruments
HP uses derivatives to offset business exposure to foreign currency and interest rate risk on expected future cash flows and on certain existing assets and liabilities. As part of its risk management strategy, HP uses derivative instruments, primarily forward contracts, interest rate swaps, total return swaps and, at times, option contracts to hedge certain foreign currency, interest rate and, return on certain investment exposures. HP may designate its derivative contracts as fair value hedges or cash flow hedges and classifies the cash flows with the activities that correspond to the underlying hedged items. Additionally, for derivatives not designated as hedging instruments, HP categorizes those economic hedges as other derivatives. HP recognizes all derivative instruments at fair value in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets.

HP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements (Continued)
(Unaudited)
Note 8: Financial Instruments (Continued)

As a result of its use of derivative instruments, HP is exposed to the risk that its counterparties will fail to meet their contractual obligations. Master netting agreements mitigate credit exposure to counterparties by permitting HP to net amounts due from HP to counterparty against amounts due to HP from the same counterparty under certain conditions. To further limit credit risk, HP has collateral security agreements that allow HP’s custodian to hold collateral from, or require HP to post collateral to, counterparties when aggregate derivative fair values exceed contractually established thresholds which are generally based on the credit ratings of HP and its counterparties. If HP’s or the counterparty’s credit rating falls below a specified credit rating, either party has the right to request full collateralization of the derivatives’ net liability position. The fair value of derivatives with credit contingent features in a net liability position was $43 million and $45 million as of January 31, 2020 and as of October 31, 2019, respectively, all of which were fully collateralized within two business days.
Under HP’s derivative contracts, the counterparty can terminate all outstanding trades following a covered change of control event affecting HP that results in the surviving entity being rated below a specified credit rating. This credit contingent provision did not affect HP’s financial position or cash flows as of January 31, 2020 and October 31, 2019.
Fair Value Hedges
HP enters into fair value hedges, such as interest rate swaps, to reduce the exposure of its debt portfolio to changes in fair value resulting from changes in interest rates by achieving a primarily U.S. dollar London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”)-based floating interest expense.
For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges, HP recognizes the change in fair value of the derivative instrument, as well as the offsetting change in the fair value of the hedged item, in Interest and other, net in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings in the period of change.
Cash Flow Hedges
HP uses forward contracts and, at times, option contracts designated as cash flow hedges to protect against the foreign currency exchange rate risks inherent in its forecasted net revenue and, to a lesser extent, cost of revenue and operating expenses. HP’s foreign currency cash flow hedges mature predominantly within twelve months; however, hedges related to long-term procurement arrangements extend several years.
For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, HP initially records changes in fair value of the derivative instrument in Accumulated other comprehensive loss as a separate component of stockholders’ deficit in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets and subsequently reclassifies these amounts into earnings in the period during which the hedged transaction is recognized in earnings. HP reports the changes in the fair value of the derivative instrument in the same financial statement line item as changes in the fair value of the hedged item.
Other Derivatives
Other derivatives not designated as hedging instruments consist primarily of forward contracts used to hedge foreign currency-denominated balance sheet exposures. HP uses total return swaps to hedge its executive deferred compensation plan liability.
For derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments, HP recognizes changes in fair value of the derivative instrument, as well as the offsetting change in the fair value of the hedged item, in Interest and other, net in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings in the period of change.
Hedge Effectiveness
For interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges, HP measures hedge effectiveness by offsetting the change in fair value of the hedged item with the change in fair value of the derivative. For foreign currency options and forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges, HP measures hedge effectiveness by comparing the cumulative change in fair value of the hedge contract with the cumulative change in fair value of the hedged item, both of which are based on forward rates.
As of January 31, 2020 and 2019, no portion of the hedging instruments’ gain or loss was excluded from the assessment of effectiveness for fair value and cash flow hedges.

As of January 31, 2020, HP expects to reclassify an estimated accumulated other comprehensive gain of $108 million, net of taxes, to earnings within the next twelve months associated with cash flow hedges along with the earnings effects of the related forecasted transactions. The amounts ultimately reclassified into earnings could be different from the amounts previously included in Accumulated other comprehensive loss based on the change of market rate, and therefore could have different impact on earnings.

HP may redeem some or all of the fixed-rate U.S. Dollar Global Notes at any time in accordance with the terms thereof. The U.S. Dollar Global Notes are senior unsecured debt.
In December 2019, HP filed a shelf registration statement (the “2019 Shelf Registration Statement”) with the SEC to enable the Company to offer for sale, from time to time, in one or more offerings, an unspecified amount of debt securities, common stock, preferred stock, depositary shares and warrants.
As disclosed in Note 8, “Financial Instruments”, HP uses interest rate swaps to mitigate some of the exposure of its debt portfolio to changes in fair value resulting from changes in interest rates by achieving a primarily U.S. dollar LIBOR-based floating interest expense. Interest rates shown in the table of long-term debt have not been adjusted to reflect the impact of any interest rate swaps.
Commercial Paper
As of January 31, 2020, HP maintained two commercial paper programs. HP’s U.S. program provides for the issuance of U.S. dollar-denominated commercial paper up to a maximum aggregate principal amount of $6.0 billion. HP’s euro commercial paper program provides for the issuance of commercial paper outside of the United States denominated in U.S. dollars, euros or British pounds up to a maximum aggregate principal amount of $6.0 billion or the equivalent in those alternative currencies. The combined aggregate principal amount of commercial paper outstanding under those programs at any one time cannot exceed the $6.0 billion authorized by HP’s Board of Directors.

Credit Facility
As of January 31, 2020, HP maintained a $4.0 billion senior unsecured committed revolving credit facility to support the issuance of commercial paper or for general corporate purposes. Commitments under the revolving credit facility will be available until March 30, 2023. Commitment fees, interest rates and other terms of borrowing under the credit facilities vary based on HP’s external credit ratings. As of January 31, 2020, HP was in compliance with the financial covenants in the credit agreement governing the revolving credit facility.
Available Borrowing Resources
As of January 31, 2020, HP had available borrowing resources of $701 million from uncommitted lines of credit in addition to the senior unsecured committed revolving credit facility discussed above.

Note 10: Stockholders’ Deficit
Share Repurchase Program
HP’s share repurchase program authorizes both open market and private repurchase transactions. During the three months ended January 31, 2020, HP executed share repurchases of 34 million shares and settled total shares for $0.7 billion. During the three months ended January 31, 2019, HP executed share repurchases of 32 million shares and settled total shares for $0.7 billion. Share repurchases executed during the three months ended January 31, 2020 and 2019 included 1.3 million and 0.9 million shares settled in February 2020 and February 2019, respectively.
The shares repurchased during the three months ended January 31, 2020 and 2019 were all open market repurchase transactions. On June 19, 2018 and September 30, 2019, HP’s Board of Directors authorized additional $4.0 billion and $5.0 billion, respectively, for future repurchases of its outstanding shares of common stock. As of January 31, 2020, HP had approximately $5.8 billion remaining under the share repurchase authorizations approved by HP’s Board of Directors.
On February 22, 2020, HP’s Board of Directors increased HP’s share repurchase authorization to $15.0 billion in total.

Note 11: Net Earnings Per Share
HP calculates basic net EPS using net earnings and the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted net EPS includes any dilutive effect of restricted stock units, stock options, performance-based awards and shares purchased under the 2011 employee stock purchase plan.
A reconciliation of the number of shares used for basic and diluted net EPS calculations is as follows:

HP excludes from the calculation of diluted net EPS stock options and restricted stock units where the assumed proceeds exceed the average market price, because their effect would be anti-dilutive. The assumed proceeds of a stock option include the sum of its exercise price, and average unrecognized compensation cost. The assumed proceeds of a restricted stock unit represent unrecognized compensation cost.

Note 12: Litigation and Contingencies
HP is involved in lawsuits, claims, investigations and proceedings, including those identified below, consisting of IP, commercial, securities, employment, employee benefits and environmental matters that arise in the ordinary course of business. HP accrues a liability when management believes that it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. HP believes it has recorded adequate provisions for any such matters and, as of January 31, 2020, it was not reasonably possible that a material loss had been incurred in excess of the amounts recognized in HP’s financial statements. HP reviews these matters at least quarterly and adjusts its accruals to reflect the impact of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and other information and events pertaining to a particular case. Pursuant to the separation and distribution agreement, HP shares responsibility with Hewlett Packard Enterprise for certain matters, as indicated below, and Hewlett Packard Enterprise has agreed to indemnify HP in whole or in part with respect to certain matters. Based on its experience, HP believes that any damage amounts claimed in the specific matters discussed below are not a meaningful indicator of HP’s potential liability. Litigation is inherently unpredictable. However, HP believes it has valid defenses with respect to legal matters pending against it. Nevertheless, cash flows or results of operations could be materially affected in any particular period by the resolution of one or more of these contingencies.
Litigation, Proceedings and Investigations
Copyright Levies.  Proceedings are ongoing or have been concluded involving HP in certain European countries, including litigation in Belgium and other countries, seeking to impose or modify levies upon IT equipment (such as multifunction devices (“MFDs”) and PCs), alleging that these devices enable the production of private copies of copyrighted materials. The levies are generally based upon the number of products sold and the per-product amounts of the levies, which vary. Some European countries that do not yet have levies on digital devices are expected to implement similar legislation to enable them to extend existing levy schemes, while other European countries have phased out levies or are expected to limit the scope of levy schemes and applicability in the digital hardware environment, particularly with respect to sales to business users. HP, other companies and various industry associations have opposed the extension of levies to the digital environment and have advocated alternative models of compensation to rights holders.
Reprobel, a collecting society administering the remuneration for reprography to Belgian copyright holders, requested by extrajudicial means that HP amend certain copyright levy declarations submitted for inkjet MFDs sold in Belgium from January 2005 to December 2009 to enable it to collect copyright levies calculated based on the generally higher copying speed when the

35

HP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements (Continued)

Note 12: Litigation and Contingencies (Continued)

MFDs are operated in draft print mode rather than when operated in normal print mode. In March 2010, HP filed a lawsuit against Reprobel in the Court of First Instance of Brussels seeking a declaratory judgment that no copyright levies are payable on sales of MFDs in Belgium or, alternatively, that payments already made by HP are sufficient to comply with its obligations. The Court of Appeal in Brussels (the “Court of Appeal”) stayed the proceedings and referred several questions to the Court of Justice of the European Union (“CJEU”). On November 12, 2015, the CJEU published its judgment providing that a national legislation such as the Belgian one at issue in the main proceedings is incompatible with EU law on multiple legal points, as argued by HP, and returned the proceedings to the referring court. On May 12, 2017, the Court of Appeal held that (1) reprographic copyright levies are due notwithstanding the lack of conformity of the Belgian system with EU law in certain aspects and (2) the applicable levies are to be calculated based on the objective speed of each MFD as established by an expert appointed by the Court of Appeal. HP appealed this decision before the Belgian Supreme Court on January 18, 2018.
Based on industry opposition to the extension of levies to digital products, HP’s assessments of the merits of various proceedings and HP’s estimates of the number of units impacted and the amounts of the levies, HP has accrued amounts that it believes are adequate to address the ongoing disputes.
Hewlett-Packard Company v. Oracle Corporation.  On June 15, 2011, HP filed suit against Oracle Corporation (“Oracle”) in California Superior Court in Santa Clara County in connection with Oracle’s March 2011 announcement that it was discontinuing software support for HP’s Itanium-based line of mission critical servers. HP asserted, among other things, that Oracle’s actions breached the contract that was signed by the parties as part of the settlement of the litigation relating to Oracle’s hiring of Mark Hurd. The matter eventually progressed to trial, which was bifurcated into two phases. HP prevailed in the first phase of the trial, in which the court ruled that the contract at issue required Oracle to continue to offer its software products on HP’s Itanium-based servers for as long as HP decided to sell such servers. The second phase of the trial was then postponed by Oracle’s appeal of the trial court’s denial of Oracle’s “anti-SLAPP” motion, in which Oracle argued that HP’s damages claim infringed on Oracle’s First Amendment rights. On August 27, 2015, the California Court of Appeals rejected Oracle’s appeal. The matter was remanded to the trial court for the second phase of the trial, which began on May 23, 2016 and was submitted to the jury on June 29, 2016. On June 30, 2016, the jury returned a verdict in favor of HP, awarding HP approximately $3.0 billion in damages, which included approximately $1.7 billion for past lost profits and $1.3 billion for future lost profits. On October 20, 2016, the court entered judgment for HP for this amount with interest accruing until the judgment is paid. Oracle’s motion for new trial was denied on December 19, 2016, and Oracle filed its notice of appeal from the trial court’s judgment on January 17, 2017. On February 2, 2017, HP filed a notice of cross-appeal challenging the trial court’s denial of prejudgment interest. The case is fully briefed and awaiting the Court of Appeals to schedule oral argument. HP expects that the appeals process could take several years to complete. Litigation is unpredictable, and there can be no assurance that HP will recover damages, or that any award of damages will be for the amount awarded by the jury’s verdict. The amount ultimately awarded, if any, would be recorded in the period received. No adjustment has been recorded in the financial statements in relation to this potential award. Pursuant to the terms of the separation and distribution agreement, HP and Hewlett Packard Enterprise will share equally in any recovery from Oracle once Hewlett Packard Enterprise has been reimbursed for all costs incurred in the prosecution of the action prior to the Separation.
Forsyth, et al. v. HP Inc. and Hewlett Packard Enterprise. This is a purported class and collective action filed on August 18, 2016 in the United States District Court, Northern District of California, against HP and Hewlett Packard Enterprise alleging the defendants violated the Federal Age Discrimination in Employment Act (“ADEA”), the California Fair Employment and Housing Act, California public policy and the California Business and Professions Code by terminating older workers and replacing them with younger workers. In their initial complaint, Plaintiffs sought to certify a nationwide collective class action under the ADEA comprised of all U.S. residents employed by defendants who had their employment terminated pursuant to a workforce reduction (“WFR”) plan on or after May 23, 2012 and who were 40 years of age or older. Plaintiffs also sought to represent a Rule 23 class under California law comprised of all persons 40 years or older employed by defendants in the state of California and terminated pursuant to a WFR plan on or after May 23, 2012.  In November 2016, the plaintiffs amended their complaint, adding new plaintiffs and narrowing the class period for the nationwide collective action to a period that started on December 9, 2014.  On September 20, 2017, the Court granted defendants’ motions to compel arbitration as to the party plaintiffs who signed WFR release agreements, and also stayed the entire case until the arbitrations were completed.  In October 2018, the claims of all 16 arbitration claimants were resolved.  Between November 2018 and April 2019, an additional 154 individuals filed consents to opt‐in to the action as party‐plaintiffs, which brought the total number of named and opt-in plaintiffs to 193.  Of the new opt-ins, 145 signed separation agreements that included class waivers and mandatory arbitration provisions.  The parties have resolved the claims of 142 of those 145 opt-ins, and the remaining three opt-ins who signed separation agreements dismissed their claims without prejudice.  In February 2020, the claims of thirteen additional party plaintiffs were dismissed voluntarily without prejudice, leaving the total number of named and opt-in plaintiffs at 35.  On January 7, 2020, the plaintiffs filed a Third Amended Complaint that seeks to represent (1) a putative nationwide

Note 12: Litigation and Contingencies (Continued)

ADEA collective comprised of all individuals 40 years of age and older who had their employment terminated pursuant to a WFR plan on or after December 9, 2014 and did not sign a Waiver and General Release Agreement in connection with their selection for WFR; and (2) a putative Rule 23 class under California law comprised of all individuals 40 years of age and older who had their employment terminated pursuant to a WFR plan on or after August 18, 2012 and did not sign a Waiver and General Release Agreement in connection with their selection for WFR.  On February 6, 2020, Defendants moved to dismiss the complaint in its entirety.  The stay of the litigation otherwise remains in place.
Jackson, et al. v. HP Inc. and Hewlett Packard Enterprise. This putative nationwide class action was filed on July 24, 2017 in federal district court in San Jose, California. The plaintiffs purport to bring the lawsuit on behalf of themselves and other similarly situated African-Americans and individuals over the age of forty. The plaintiffs allege that the defendants engaged in a pattern and practice of racial and age discrimination in lay-offs and promotions. The plaintiffs filed an amended complaint on September 29, 2017. On January 12, 2018, the defendants moved to transfer the matter to the federal district court in the Northern District of Georgia. The defendants also moved to dismiss the claims on various grounds and to strike certain aspects of the proposed class definition. The Court dismissed the action on the basis of improper venue. On July 23, 2018, the plaintiffs refiled the case in the Northern District of Georgia. On August 9, 2018, the plaintiffs also filed a notice of appeal of the dismissal order with the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. On October 1, 2018, the Georgia court granted the plaintiffs’ unopposed motion to stay and administratively close the Georgia action until the Ninth Circuit appeal is decided.  On February 4, 2020, the parties resolved their claims, and by February 11, 2020, dismissals with prejudice were entered in the Northern District of Georgia action, the Northern District of California action, and the Ninth Circuit appeal.
India Directorate of Revenue Intelligence Proceedings. On April 30 and May 10, 2010, the India Directorate of Revenue Intelligence (the “DRI”) issued show cause notices to Hewlett-Packard India Sales Private Limited (“HP India”), a subsidiary of HP, seven HP India employees and one former HP India employee alleging that HP India underpaid customs duties while importing products and spare parts into India and seeking to recover an aggregate of approximately $370 million, plus penalties. Prior to the issuance of the show cause notices, HP India deposited approximately $16 million with the DRI and agreed to post a provisional bond in exchange for the DRI’s agreement to not seize HP India products and spare parts and to not interrupt the transaction of business by HP India.
On April 11, 2012, the Bangalore Commissioner of Customs issued an order on the products-related show cause notice affirming certain duties and penalties against HP India and the named individuals of approximately $386 million, of which HP India had already deposited $9 million. On December 11, 2012, HP India voluntarily deposited an additional $10 million in connection with the products-related show cause notice. The differential duty demand is subject to interest. On April 20, 2012, the Commissioner issued an order on the parts-related show cause notice affirming certain duties and penalties against HP India and certain of the named individuals of approximately $17 million, of which HP India had already deposited $7 million. After the order, HP India deposited an additional $3 million in connection with the parts-related show cause notice so as to avoid certain penalties.
HP India filed appeals of the Commissioner’s orders before the Customs Tribunal along with applications for waiver of the pre-deposit of remaining demand amounts as a condition for hearing the appeals. The Customs Department has also filed cross-appeals before the Customs Tribunal. On January 24, 2013, the Customs Tribunal ordered HP India to deposit an additional $24 million against the products order, which HP India deposited in March 2013. The Customs Tribunal did not order any additional deposit to be made under the parts order. In December 2013, HP India filed applications before the Customs Tribunal seeking early hearing of the appeals as well as an extension of the stay of deposit as to HP India and the individuals already granted until final disposition of the appeals. On February 7, 2014, the application for extension of the stay of deposit was granted by the Customs Tribunal until disposal of the appeals. On October 27, 2014, the Customs Tribunal commenced hearings on the cross-appeals of the Commissioner’s orders. The Customs Tribunal rejected HP India’s request to remand the matter to the Commissioner on procedural grounds. The hearings scheduled to reconvene on April 6, 2015 and again on November 3, 2015 and April 11, 2016 were canceled at the request of the Customs Tribunal. A hearing on the merits of the appeal scheduled for January 15, 2019 has been cancelled. Pursuant to the separation and distribution agreement, Hewlett Packard Enterprise has agreed to indemnify HP in part, based on the extent to which any liability arises from the products and spare parts of Hewlett Packard Enterprise’s businesses.

Neodron Patent Litigation. United States. On May 21, 2019, Neodron Ltd. (“Neodron”) filed a patent infringement lawsuit against Hewlett Packard Enterprise in U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas. On the same day, Neodron filed a companion complaint with the U.S. International Trade Commission (“ITC”) pursuant to Section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930 against seven sets of respondents, including Hewlett Packard Enterprise. On May 23 and June 14, 2019, Neodron filed amended complaints in the ITC and the Western District of Texas, respectively, to replace Hewlett Packard Enterprise with HP.  Both complaints allege that certain touch-controlled devices infringe four patents owned by Neodron. On June 19, 2019, the ITC instituted an investigation. The ITC hearing is scheduled to begin on March 23, 2020, and the ITC’s target date for completion of the investigation is October 26, 2020. The district court action is stayed pending resolution of the ITC proceedings. In the ITC proceeding, Neodron seeks an order enjoining HP from importing, selling for importation, or selling after importation certain touch-controlled notebook computers and tablets. On June 28, 2019, Neodron filed a second lawsuit in the Western District of Texas, asserting four additional patents against HP touch-controlled devices. Neodron amended its complaint in the second lawsuit to assert a total of eight patents against HP touch-controlled devices. Neodron seeks unspecified damages and a permanent injunction, among other remedies. 
Germany. On October 29, 2019, Neodron served HP with a claim of patent infringement at the Munich State Court in Germany. The patent asserted in the German case is related to a patent asserted in the ITC. This case will consist of an initial hearing in March 2020 and formal hearing in late 2020. If the German court finds infringement of a valid patent, the court may issue an injunction as part of any remedy.
Slingshot Printing LLC Litigation. On June 11, 2019, Slingshot Printing LLC filed three complaints in U.S. District Court in the Western District of Texas alleging HP infringes or has infringed sixteen patents. On September 20, 2019, Slingshot filed a fourth complaint and amended the three earlier complaints, alleging that HP infringes or has infringed thirty-two patents.  On December 12, 2019, Slingshot voluntarily dismissed its allegations as to one patent because it did not own a related patent.  On January 23, 2020, Slingshot filed a fifth complaint, re-asserting the dismissed patent as well as the related patent.  On February 13, 2020, Slingshot voluntarily dismissed its allegations as to another patent, which was asserted in its third complaint. Slingshot is currently asserting a total of 32 patents.  The accused products include inkjet printers, cartridges, and printheads. The complaints seek monetary damages.
Parziale v. HP, Inc. On August 27, 2019, a purported consumer class action was filed against HP arising out of the supplies authentication protocol in certain OfficeJet printers. The complaint, which was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, captioned Parziale v. HP, Inc., alleges two causes of action under Florida Consumer Protection statutes: (1) violation of the Florida Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act, F.S.A. §§ 501.201 et seq., and (2) violation of the Florida Misleading Advertisement Law, F.S.A. §§ 817.41 et seq. The named plaintiff, a Florida resident who purchased OfficeJet printers in Florida, seeks to represent a nationwide class of “[a]ll United States Citizens who, between the applicable statute of limitations and the present, had an HP Printer that was modified to reject third party ink cartridges or refilled HP ink cartridges.” On October 30, 2019, HP moved to dismiss the complaint. On November 13, 2019, plaintiff filed an amended complaint, adding the following new causes of action to the case: (1) violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, 18 U.S.C. § 1030 et seq., (2) trespass to chattels, and (3) tortious interference with business relations. Plaintiff seeks certain class relief regarding its complaint, injunctive relief, damages, including punitive damages, and attorneys’ fees. On December 30, 2019, HP moved to dismiss plaintiff’s amended complaint.
Electrical Workers Pension Fund, Local 103, I.B.E.W. v. HP Inc., et al.  This is a putative securities class action filed on February 19, 2020 in federal court for the Northern District of California alleging, among other things, that from February 23, 2017 to October 3, 2019 the defendants violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act by concealing material information and making false statements about HP’s printing supplies business, including the accuracy and reliability of HP’s four-box model to determine the demand for supplies.  Plaintiff seeks compensatory damages and other relief.
Autonomy-Related Legal Matters
Investigations.  As a result of the findings of an ongoing investigation, HP has provided information to the U.K. Serious Fraud Office, the U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”) and the SEC related to the accounting improprieties, disclosure failures and misrepresentations at Autonomy that occurred prior to and in connection with HP’s acquisition of Autonomy. On January 19, 2015, the U.K. Serious Fraud Office notified HP that it was closing its investigation and had decided to cede jurisdiction of the investigation to the U.S. authorities. On November 14, 2016, the DOJ announced that a federal grand jury indicted Sushovan Hussain, the former CFO of Autonomy. Mr. Hussain was charged with conspiracy to commit wire fraud, securities fraud, and multiple counts of wire fraud. The indictment alleged that Mr. Hussain engaged in a scheme to defraud purchasers and sellers of securities of Autonomy and HP about the true performance of Autonomy’s business, its financial condition, and its prospects for growth. A jury trial commenced on February 26, 2018. On April 30, 2018, the jury found Mr. Hussain guilty of all charges against him. On November 15, 2016, the SEC announced that Stouffer Egan, the former CEO of Autonomy’s U.S.-

based operations, settled charges relating to his participation in an accounting scheme to meet internal sales targets and analyst revenue expectations. On November 29, 2018, the DOJ announced that a federal grand jury indicted Michael Lynch, former CEO of Autonomy, and Stephen Chamberlain, former VP of Finance of Autonomy. Dr. Lynch and Mr. Chamberlain were charged with conspiracy to commit wire fraud and multiple counts of wire fraud. HP is continuing to cooperate with the ongoing enforcement actions.
Autonomy Corporation Limited v. Michael Lynch and Sushovan Hussain. On April 17, 2015, four former HP subsidiaries that became subsidiaries of Hewlett Packard Enterprise at the time of the Separation (Autonomy Corporation Limited, Hewlett Packard Vision BV, Autonomy Systems, Limited, and Autonomy, Inc.) initiated civil proceedings in the U.K. High Court of Justice against two members of Autonomy’s former management, Michael Lynch and Sushovan Hussain. The Particulars of Claim seek damages in excess of $5 billion from Messrs. Lynch and Hussain for breach of their fiduciary duties by causing Autonomy group companies to engage in improper transactions and accounting practices. On October 1, 2015, Messrs. Lynch and Hussain filed their defenses. Mr. Lynch also filed a counterclaim against Autonomy Corporation Limited seeking $160 million in damages, among other things, for alleged misstatements regarding Lynch. The Hewlett Packard Enterprise subsidiary claimants filed their replies to the defenses and the asserted counter-claim on March 11, 2016.  Trial began on March 25, 2019 and was completed in January 2020.  The parties are awaiting a ruling from the Court.
Environmental
HP’s business is subject to various federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations that could result in costs or other sanctions that adversely affect our business and results of operations. For example, HP is subject to laws and regulations concerning environmental protection, including laws addressing the discharge of pollutants into the air and water, the management and disposal of hazardous substances and wastes, the clean-up of contaminated sites, the content of HP’s products and the recycling, treatment and disposal of those products, including batteries. In particular, HP faces increasing complexity in its product design and procurement operations as it adjusts to new and future requirements relating to the chemical and materials composition of its products, their safe use, the energy consumption associated with those products, climate change laws and regulations, and product repairability, reuse and take-back legislation. HP could incur substantial costs, its products could be restricted from entering certain jurisdictions, and it could face other sanctions, if it were to violate or become liable under environmental laws or if its products become noncompliant with environmental laws. HP’s potential exposure includes fines and civil or criminal sanctions, third-party property damage or personal injury claims and clean-up costs. The amount and timing of costs to comply with environmental laws are difficult to predict. 
HP is party to, or otherwise involved in, proceedings brought by U.S. or state environmental agencies under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“CERCLA”), known as “Superfund,” or state laws similar to CERCLA, and may become a party to, or otherwise involved in, proceedings brought by private parties for contribution towards clean-up costs. HP is also conducting environmental investigations or remediations at several current or former operating sites pursuant to administrative orders or consent agreements with state environmental agencies.
The separation and distribution agreement includes provisions that provide for the allocation of environmental liabilities between HP and Hewlett Packard Enterprise including certain remediation obligations; responsibilities arising from the chemical and materials composition of their respective products, their safe use and their energy consumption; obligations under product take back legislation that addresses the collection, recycling, treatment and disposal of products; and other environmental matters. HP will generally be responsible for environmental liabilities related to the properties and other assets, including products, allocated to HP under the separation and distribution agreement and other ancillary agreements. Under these agreements, HP will indemnify Hewlett Packard Enterprise for liabilities for specified ongoing remediation projects, subject to certain limitations, and Hewlett Packard Enterprise has a payment obligation for a specified portion of the cost of those remediation projects. In addition, HP will share with Hewlett Packard Enterprise other environmental liabilities as set forth in the separation and distribution agreement. HP is indemnified in whole or in part by Hewlett Packard Enterprise for liabilities arising from the assets assigned to Hewlett Packard Enterprise and for certain environmental matters as detailed in the separation and distribution agreement.
Note 13: Guarantees, Indemnifications and Warranties
Guarantees
In the ordinary course of business, HP may issue performance guarantees to certain of its clients, customers and other parties pursuant to which HP has guaranteed the performance obligations of third parties. Some of those guarantees may be backed by standby letters of credit or surety bonds. In general, HP would be obligated to perform over the term of the guarantee in the event a specified triggering event occurs as defined by the guarantee. HP believes the likelihood of having to perform under a material guarantee is remote.

Note 13: Guarantees, Indemnifications and Warranties (Continued)


Cross-Indemnifications with Hewlett Packard Enterprise
Under the separation and distribution agreement, HP agreed to indemnify Hewlett Packard Enterprise, each of its subsidiaries and each of their respective directors, officers and employees from and against all liabilities relating to, arising out of or resulting from, among other matters, the liabilities allocated to HP as part of the Separation. Hewlett Packard Enterprise similarly agreed to indemnify HP, each of its subsidiaries and each of their respective directors, officers and employees from and against all liabilities relating to, arising out of or resulting from, among other matters, the liabilities allocated to Hewlett Packard Enterprise as part of the Separation. HP expects Hewlett Packard Enterprise to fully perform under the terms of the separation and distribution agreement.
For information on cross-indemnifications with Hewlett Packard Enterprise for litigation matters, see Note 12, “Litigation and Contingencies.”
In connection with the Separation, HP entered into the Tax Matters Agreement (“TMA”) with Hewlett Packard Enterprise, effective on November 1, 2015. The TMA provided that HP and Hewlett Packard Enterprise will share certain pre-Separation income tax liabilities. The TMA was terminated during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2019.
Indemnifications  
In the ordinary course of business, HP enters into contractual arrangements under which HP may agree to indemnify a third party to such arrangement from any losses incurred relating to the services they perform on behalf of HP or for losses arising from certain events as defined within the particular contract, which may include, for example, litigation or claims relating to past performance. HP also provides indemnifications to certain vendors and customers against claims of intellectual property infringement made by third parties arising from the vendors’ and customers’ use of HP’s software products and services and certain other matters. Some indemnifications may not be subject to maximum loss clauses. Historically, payments made related to these indemnifications have been immaterial.
HP records tax indemnification receivables from various third parties for certain tax liabilities that HP is jointly and severally liable for, but for which it is indemnified by those same third parties under existing legal agreements. HP records a tax indemnification payable to various third parties under these agreements when management believes that it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. The actual amount that the third parties pay or may be obligated to pay HP could vary depending on the outcome of certain unresolved tax matters, which may not be resolved for several years. The net payable as of January 31, 2020 and October 31, 2019 were $59 million and $57 million, respectively.
Warranties
HP accrues the estimated cost of product warranties at the time it recognizes revenue. HP engages in extensive product quality programs and processes, including actively monitoring and evaluating the quality of its component suppliers; however, contractual warranty terms, repair costs, product call rates, average cost per call, current period product shipments and ongoing product failure rates, as well as specific product class failures outside of HP’s baseline experience, affect the estimated warranty obligation.
HP’s aggregate product warranty liabilities and changes were as follows:

Note 14: Leases
HP determines, at lease inception, whether or not an arrangement contains a lease. A significant portion of the operating lease portfolio includes real estate leases. Additionally, HP has identified embedded operating leases within certain outsourced supply chain contracts. Leasing arrangements typically range in terms from 1 to 21 years with varying renewal and termination options. Substantially all of HP’s leases are considered operating leases. Finance leases, short-term leases and sub-lease income were not material as of January 31, 2020 or for the three months ended January 31, 2020.
Lease terms include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that HP will exercise such options. HP generally considers the economic life of the ROU assets to be comparable to the useful life of similar owned assets. HP’s leases generally do not provide a residual guarantee.
Operating leases are included in Other non-current assets, Other current liabilities and Other non-current liabilities. Finance leases are included in Property, plant and equipment, net, Notes payable and short-term borrowings and Long-term debt in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
As most of the leases do not provide an implicit interest rate, HP uses the incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date of a lease in determining the present value of lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate is determined based on the rate of interest that HP would have to pay to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments on a collateralized basis over a similar term. HP uses the unsecured borrowing rate and risk-adjusts that rate to approximate a collateralized rate.
HP has elected the practical expedient to combine lease and non-lease components as a single lease element for its real estate leases and certain outsourced supply chain contracts in calculating the ROU assets and lease liabilities. Where HP chooses not to combine the lease and non-lease components, HP allocates contract consideration to the lease and non-lease components based on relative standalone prices.
HP reviews the impairment of the ROU assets consistent with the approach applied for other long-lived assets.
The components of lease expense are as follows:

All lease expenses, including variable lease costs, are primarily included in Cost of revenue and Selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings based on the use of the facility.
Variable lease expense relates primarily to leased real estate utilized for office space and outsourced warehousing. These costs primarily include adjustments for inflation, payments dependent on a rate or index or usage of asset and common area maintenance charges. These costs are not included in the lease liability and are recognized in the period in which they are incurred.
The following table presents supplemental information relating to the cash flows arising from lease transactions. Cash payments made from variable lease costs and short-term leases are not included in the measurement of operating lease liabilities, and, as such, are excluded from the amounts below:

Note 15: Subsequent Events
On February 20, 2020, HP’s Board of Directors adopted a shareholder rights plan and declared a dividend of one preferred share purchase right for each outstanding share of our common stock to shareholders of record on March 2, 2020.  The dividend distribution was made on March 2, 2020. Each right will allow its holder to purchase from HP one one-hundredth of a share of Series A Junior Participating Preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share, for an exercise price of $100, once the rights become exercisable. In the event that a person or group acquires beneficial ownership of 20% or more of our then outstanding common stock, subject to certain exceptions, each right would entitle its holder (other than such person or members of such group) to purchase additional shares of our common stock at a substantial discount to the public market price. In addition, at any time after a person or group acquires 20% or more of our outstanding common stock (unless such person or group acquires 50% or more), The Board may exchange one share of our common stock for each outstanding right (other than rights owned by such person or group, which would have become void). If HP is acquired in a merger or other business combination after an acquiring person acquires 20% or more of HP’s common stock, each holder of the rights would thereafter have the right to purchase, at a substantial discount to the public market price, a number of shares of common stock of the acquiring corporation. The Board may redeem the rights for $0.01 per right, subject to adjustment, at any time before any person or group becomes an Acquiring Person (as defined in the Rights Agreement, dated as of February 20, 2020). The rights will expire on February 20, 2021.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is organized as follows:
Overview.  A discussion of our business and other highlights affecting the company to provide context for the remainder of this MD&A.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates.  A discussion of accounting policies and estimates that we believe are important to understanding the assumptions and judgments incorporated in our reported financial results.
Results of Operations.  An analysis of our operations financial results comparing the three months ended January 31, 2020 to the prior-year period. A discussion of the results of operations is followed by a more detailed discussion of the results of operations by segment.
Liquidity and Capital Resources.  An analysis of changes in our cash flows and a discussion of our liquidity and financial condition.
Contractual and Other Obligations.  An overview of contractual obligations, retirement and post-retirement benefit plan contributions, cost-saving plans, uncertain tax positions and off-balance sheet arrangements of our operations.
The discussion of financial condition and results of our operations that follows provides information that will assist the reader in understanding our Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements, the changes in certain key items in those financial statements from year to year, and the primary factors that accounted for those changes, as well as how certain accounting principles, policies and estimates affect our Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements. This discussion should be read in conjunction with our Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements and the related notes that appear elsewhere in this document.

OVERVIEW
We are a leading global provider of personal computing and other access devices, imaging and printing products, and related technologies, solutions, and services. We sell to individual consumers, SMBs and large enterprises, including customers in the government, health, and education sectors. We have three reportable segments: Personal Systems, Printing and Corporate Investments. The Personal Systems segment offers commercial and consumer desktop and notebook PCs, workstations, thin clients, commercial mobility devices, retail POS systems, displays and other related accessories, software, support, and services. The Printing segment provides consumer and commercial printer hardware, supplies, solutions and services, as well as scanning devices. Corporate Investments include HP Labs and certain business incubation and investment projects.

HP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)

In Personal Systems, our strategic focus is on profitable growth through market segmentation with respect to enhanced innovation in multi-operating systems, multi-architecture, geography, customer segments and other key attributes. Additionally, we are investing in end point services and solutions. We are focused on services including Device as a Service as the market begins to shift to contractual solutions. We believe that we are well positioned due to our competitive product lineup.
In Printing, our strategic focus is on contractual solutions and graphics, as well as expanding our footprint in the 3D printing & digital manufacturing marketplace. In contractual solutions, we have a continued focus on Managed Print Services (“MPS”) and Instant Ink. In graphics, we offer a broad solutions portfolio to address multiple segments and applications in the graphics industry.
We continue to experience challenges that are representative of trends and uncertainties that may affect our business and results of operations. One set of challenges relates to dynamic market trends, such as forecasted declining PC Client markets and home printing markets. A second set of challenges relates to changes in the competitive landscape. Our primary competitors are exerting competitive pressure in targeted areas and are entering new markets, our emerging competitors are introducing new technologies and business models, and our alliance partners in some businesses are increasingly becoming our competitors in others. A third set of challenges relates to business model changes and our go-to-market execution in an evolving distribution and reseller landscape, with increasing online and omnichannel presence. Additional challenges we face at the segment level are set forth below.
In Personal Systems, we face challenges with industry component availability and a competitive pricing environment.
In Printing, a competitive pricing environment, including from non-original supplies (which includes imitation, refill or remanufactured alternatives), and a weakened market in certain geographies with associated pricing sensitivity of our customers present challenges. We also face challenges in Printing, primarily in EMEA, due to our multi-tier distribution network, including limiting grey marketing and the potential misuse of pricing programs. We also obtain many Printing components from single sources due to technology, availability, price, quality or other considerations. For instance, we source the majority of our A4 and a portion of our A3 portfolio of laser printer engines and laser toner cartridges from Canon. Any decision by either party to not renew our agreement with Canon or to limit or reduce the scope of the agreement could adversely affect our net revenue from LaserJet products; however, we have a long-standing business relationship with Canon and anticipate renewal of this agreement.
Our business and financial performance also depend significantly on worldwide economic conditions. Accordingly, we face global macroeconomic challenges, tariff-driven headwinds, uncertainty in the markets, volatility in exchange rates, weaker macroeconomic conditions and evolving dynamics in the global trade environment. The full impact of these and other global macroeconomic challenges on our business cannot be known at this time.
To address these challenges, we continue to pursue innovation with a view towards developing new products and services aligned with generating market demand and meeting the needs of our customers and partners. In addition, we continue to work on improving our operations and adapting our business models, with a particular focus on enhancing our end-to-end processes, analytics and efficiencies. We also continue to work on optimizing our sales coverage models, aligning our sales incentives with our strategic goals, improving channel execution and inventory management, strengthening our capabilities in our areas of strategic focus, strengthening our pricing discipline and developing and capitalizing on market opportunities.
Specifically, in October 2019, we announced cost-reduction and operational efficiency initiatives intended to simplify the way we work, move closer to our customers and facilitate specific investment in our business. These were further updated in February 2020. These efforts include transforming our operating model to integrate our sales force into a single commercial organization and reducing structural costs across the Company through our restructuring plan approved in September 2019 (the “Fiscal 2020 Plan”). We expect to invest some of the savings from these efforts across our businesses, including investing to build our digital capabilities. Over time, we expect these investments will make us more efficient and allow us to advance our positions in Personal Systems and Printing, while also disrupting new industries where we see attractive medium to long-term growth opportunities. However, the rate at which we are able to invest in our business and the returns that we are able to achieve from these investments will be affected by many factors, including the efforts to address the execution, industry and macroeconomic challenges facing our business as discussed above. As a result, we may experience delays in the anticipated timing of activities related to these efforts, and the anticipated benefits of these efforts may not materialize.
The recent novel coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak has impacted and could further impact our operations and the operations of our manufacturing partners and suppliers as a result of quarantines, facility closures, and travel and logistics restrictions in connection with the outbreak. While we expect this to be temporary, there is uncertainty around its duration and its broader impact.

HP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)

We typically experience higher net revenues in our fourth quarter compared to other quarters in our fiscal year due in part to seasonal holiday demand. Historical seasonal patterns should not be considered reliable indicators of our future net revenues or financial performance.
Unsolicited Exchange Offer
On March 2, 2020, Xerox Holdings Corporation (“Xerox”) commenced an unsolicited exchange offer for all outstanding shares of HP’s common stock (the “Offer”). Xerox previously nominated candidates for election to HP’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) at HP’s 2020 annual meeting of stockholders. After careful consideration of the Offer in consultation with HP’s independent outside financial and legal advisors, the Board determined that the Offer is not in the best interest of HP’s stockholders and recommended that HP stockholders reject the Offer and not tender their shares into the Offer. On March 5, 2020, we filed a solicitation/recommendation statement on Schedule 14D-9 with the SEC containing the Board’s recommendation.  In response to Xerox’s actions, HP has incurred, and expects to incur in the future, significant costs.
For a further discussion of trends, uncertainties and other factors that could impact our operating results, see the section entitled “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of Part I of this report as well as in Item 1A of Part II in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2019.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
MD&A is based on our Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, net revenues and expenses, and disclosure of contingent liabilities. Our management believes that there have been no significant changes during the three months ended January 31, 2020 to the items that we disclosed as our critical accounting policies and estimates in MD&A in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2019, except as mentioned previously in “Note 1: Basis of Presentation”.
ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
For a summary of recent accounting pronouncements applicable to our Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements see Note 1, “Basis of Presentation”, to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Revenue from our international operations has historically represented, and we expect will continue to represent, a majority of our overall net revenue. As a result, our net revenue growth has been impacted, and we expect it will continue to be impacted, by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. In order to provide a framework for assessing performance excluding the impact of foreign currency fluctuations, we supplement the year-over-year percentage change in net revenue with the year-over-year percentage change in net revenue on a constant currency basis, which excludes the effect of foreign currency exchange fluctuations calculated by translating current period revenues using monthly average exchange rates from the comparative period and hedging activities from the prior-year period and does not adjust for any repricing or demand impacts from changes in foreign currency exchange rates. This information is provided so that net revenue can be viewed with and without the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, which is consistent with how management evaluates our net revenue results and trends, as management does not believe that the excluded items are reflective of ongoing operating results. The constant currency measures are provided in addition to, and not as a substitute for, the year-over-year percentage change in net revenue on a GAAP basis. Other companies may calculate and define similarly labeled items differently, which may limit the usefulness of this measure for comparative purposes.

Net Revenue
For the three months ended January 31, 2020, total net revenue decreased 1% (increased 1% on a constant currency basis) as compared to the prior-year period. U.S. net revenue decreased 1% to $4.9 billion, while net revenue from international operations remained flat at $9.7 billion. The decrease in total net revenue was primarily driven by decline in Supplies and unfavorable foreign currency impacts, partially offset by growth in Notebooks, Desktops and Workstations.
A detailed discussion of the factors contributing to the changes in segment net revenue is included in “Segment Information” below.
Gross Margin
For the three months ended January 31, 2020, our gross margin increased by 1.8 percentage points, as compared to the prior-year period, primarily due to higher rate in Personal Systems driven by lower supply chain costs.
A detailed discussion of the factors contributing to the changes in segment gross margins is included under “Segment Information” below.
Operating Expenses
Research and Development (“R&D”)
R&D expense increased 16.3% for the three months ended January 31, 2020, as compared to the prior-year period, primarily due to continuing investments in innovation and key growth initiatives.
Selling, General and Administrative (“SG&A”)
SG&A expense increased 3.4% for the three months ended January 31, 2020, as compared to the prior-year period, primarily driven by investments in key growth initiatives and go-to-market in Personal Systems.
Restructuring and Other Charges
Restructuring and other charges for the three months ended January 31, 2020 relate primarily to the Fiscal 2020 Plan.
Amortization of Intangible Assets
Amortization of intangible assets for the three months ended January 31, 2020 relates primarily to intangible assets resulting from the acquisitions of Samsung’s printer business and the Apogee group.
Interest and Other, Net

HP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)

Interest and other, net expense decreased by $39 million for the three months ended January 31, 2020, as compared to the prior-year period, primarily driven by Net Periodic Post-retirement Benefit Cost.
Provision for Taxes
Our effective tax rate was 22.8% and 10.8% for the three months ended January 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The difference between the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21% and our effective tax rate for the three months ended January 31, 2020 is primarily due to the accrual of uncertain tax positions in various jurisdictions, partially offset by favorable tax rates associated with certain earnings from our operations in lower-tax jurisdictions throughout the world. For the three months ended January 31, 2019, our effective tax rate generally differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% due to favorable tax rates associated with certain earnings from our operations in lower-tax jurisdictions throughout the world.
During the three months ended January 31, 2020, we recorded $7 million of net tax benefits related to discrete items in the provision for taxes. This amount included tax benefits of $48 million and $7 million related to restructuring and other net tax benefits, respectively. These benefits were partially offset by uncertain tax position charges of $48 million. For the period ended January 31, 2020, excess tax benefits associated with stock options, restricted stock units and performance-adjusted restricted stock units were immaterial.
During the three months ended January 31, 2019, we recorded $9 million of net tax benefits related to discrete items in the provision for taxes. We completed our analysis of the full impact of TCJA as of January 31, 2019, and recorded tax benefit of $21 million related to final tax reform adjustments and a tax benefit of $12 million related to restructuring. These benefits were partially offset by uncertain tax position charges of $20 million and other tax charges of $4 million.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)

Three months ended January 31, 2020 compared with three months ended January 31, 2019
Personal Systems net revenue increased 2.4% (increased 3.8% on a constant currency basis) for the three months ended January 31, 2020 as compared to the prior-year period. The net revenue increase was primarily due to growth in Notebooks, Desktops and Workstations, partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency impacts. The net revenue increase was driven by a 3.9% increase in unit volume, partially offset by 1.4% decrease in average selling prices (“ASPs”), as compared to the prior-year period. The increase in unit volume was primarily due to increase in Desktops, Notebooks and Workstations. The decrease in ASPs was due to lower pricing and unfavorable currency impacts, partially offset by positive mix shifts.
Commercial revenue increased 7.5% primarily driven by higher unit volume partially offset by decrease in ASPs and Consumer revenue decreased 6.5% primarily driven by decrease in ASPs and lower unit volume, respectively, for the three months ended January 31, 2020 as compared to the prior-year period.
Net revenue increased 0.9% in Notebooks, 2.3% in Desktops and 5.7% in Workstations as compared to the prior-year period.
Personal Systems earnings from operations as a percentage of net revenue increased 2.5 percentage points for the three months ended January 31, 2020 as compared to the prior-year period. The increase was primarily due to an increase in gross margin partially offset by an increase in operating expenses. The increase in gross margin was primarily due to lower supply chain costs, partially offset by lower ASPs. Operating expenses as a percentage of net revenue increased primarily due to increased investments in key growth initiatives.

Three months ended January 31, 2020 compared with three months ended January 31, 2019
Printing net revenue decreased 6.6% (decreased 5.8% on a constant currency basis) for the three months ended January 31, 2020 as compared to the prior-year period. The decline in net revenue was primarily driven by a decline in Supplies, Consumer Hardware revenue and unfavorable foreign currency impacts. Net revenue for Supplies decreased 6.9% as compared to the prior-year period, primarily due to demand weakness. Printer unit volume decreased 10.4% compared to the prior-year period. The decrease in printer unit volume was primarily driven by unit decreases in both Consumer and Commercial Hardware.

48

HP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)

Net revenue for Commercial Hardware decreased by 1.3% as compared to the prior-year period, primarily due to a 11.5% decrease in printer volume and partially offset by an increase in ASPs by 3.8%. The unit volume decline in Commercial Hardware was primarily due to weakness in demand and our strategy to rebalance our portfolio to a higher profit customer mix. The increase in ASPs was driven by increased rate, partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency impacts.
Net revenue for Consumer Hardware decreased 13.2% as compared to the prior-year period due to a decrease in printer unit volume by 10.2% and 3.5% decrease in ASPs. The unit volume decrease was driven by InkJet Home Consumer business and LaserJet Home business. The decrease in ASPs was primarily due to unfavorable foreign currency impacts.
Printing earnings from operations as a percentage of net revenue decreased by 0.2 percentage points for the three months ended January 31, 2020 as compared to the prior-year period, primarily due to lower Supplies revenue.
Corporate Investments
The loss from operations in Corporate Investments for the three months ended January 31, 2020 was primarily due to expenses associated with our incubation projects.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
We use cash generated by operations as our primary source of liquidity. We believe that current cash, cash flow from operating activities, new borrowings, available commercial paper authorization and credit facility will be sufficient to meet HP’s operating cash requirements, planned capital expenditures, interest and principal payments on all borrowings, pension and post-retirement funding requirements, authorized share repurchases and annual dividend payments. Additionally, in the event that suitable businesses are available for acquisition that offer good return opportunities, the Company may obtain all or a portion of the financing for these acquisitions through additional borrowings. While our access to capital markets may be constrained and our cost of borrowing may increase under certain business, market and economic conditions, our access to a variety of funding sources to meet our liquidity needs is designed to facilitate continued access to capital resources under all such conditions. Our liquidity is subject to various risks including the risks identified in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of Part I of this report as well as in Item 1A of Part II in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2019 and the market risks identified in the section entitled “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” in Item 3 of Part I of this report, which are incorporated herein by reference.
On February 22, 2020, HP’s Board of Directors increased HP’s share repurchase authorization to $15.0 billion. HP’s Board of Directors also authorized a capital return program that will target the return of approximately $16.0 billion to HP shareholders using share repurchases and dividends during fiscal 2020 to fiscal 2022. We expect this capital return program to include the repurchase of at least $8.0 billion of HP shares in the twelve months following HP’s 2020 annual meeting. 
Our cash and cash equivalents balances are held in numerous locations throughout the world. We utilize a variety of planning and financing strategies in an effort to ensure that our worldwide cash is available when and where it is needed. Amounts held outside of the United States are generally utilized to support non-U.S. liquidity needs and may from time to time be distributed to the United States. The TCJA made significant changes to the U.S. tax law, including a one-time transition tax on accumulated foreign earnings. The payments associated with this one-time transition tax will be paid over eight years and began in fiscal year 2019. We expect a significant portion of the cash and cash equivalents held by our foreign subsidiaries will no longer be subject to U.S. income tax consequences upon a subsequent repatriation to the United States as a result of the transition tax on accumulated foreign earnings. However, a portion of this cash may still be subject to foreign income tax or withholding tax consequences upon repatriation. As we evaluate the future cash needs of our operations, we may revise the amount of foreign earnings considered to be permanently reinvested in our foreign subsidiaries and how to utilize such funds, including reducing our gross debt level, or other uses.

Compared to the corresponding period in fiscal year 2019, net cash provided by operating activities increased by $0.4 billion for the three months ended January 31, 2020, primarily due to working capital management activities.

January 31, 2020 as compared to January 31, 2019
The cash conversion cycle is the sum of days of DSO and DOS less DPO. Items which may cause the cash conversion cycle in a particular period to differ from a long-term sustainable rate include, but are not limited to, changes in business mix, changes in payment terms, extent of receivables factoring, seasonal trends and the timing of revenue recognition and inventory purchases within the period.
DSO measures the average number of days our receivables are outstanding. DSO is calculated by dividing ending accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, by a 90-day average net revenue. The decrease in DSO was primarily due to favorable revenue linearity.
DOS measures the average number of days from procurement to sale of our product. DOS is calculated by dividing ending inventory by a 90-day average cost of revenue. The decrease in DOS was primarily due to focus on inventory management.
DPO measures the average number of days our accounts payable balances are outstanding. DPO is calculated by dividing ending accounts payable by a 90-day average cost of revenue. The decrease in DPO was primarily due to lower inventory purchasing volume.
Investing Activities
Compared to the corresponding period in fiscal year 2019, net cash used in investing activities increased by $0.2 billion for the three months ended January 31, 2020, primarily due to an increase in investments classified as available-for-sale investments within Other current assets of $0.6 billion, partially offset by lower net payments for acquisitions of $0.4 billion.
Financing Activities
Compared to the corresponding period in fiscal year 2019, net cash used in financing activities decreased by $1.2 billion for the three months ended January 31, 2020, primarily due to lower payment of debt and commercial paper.
Capital Resources
Debt Levels
We maintain debt levels that we establish through consideration of a number of factors, including cash flow expectations, cash requirements for operations, investment plans (including acquisitions), share repurchase activities, our cost of capital and targeted capital structure. Outstanding borrowings decreased to $4.9 billion as of January 31, 2020 as compared to $5.1 billion as of October 31, 2019, bearing weighted-average interest rates of 4.6% and 4.6% for January 31, 2020 and October 31, 2019, respectively.
Our weighted-average interest rate reflects the effective rate on our borrowings prevailing during the period and reflects the effect of interest rate swaps. For more information on our interest rate swaps, see Note 8, “Financial Instruments”, to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.
As of January 31, 2020, we maintain a senior unsecured committed revolving credit facility with aggregate lending commitments of $4.0 billion, which will be available until March 30, 2023 and is primarily to support the issuance of commercial paper. Funds borrowed under this revolving credit facility may also be used for general corporate purposes.

For more information on our borrowings, see Note 9, “Borrowings”, to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Credit Ratings
Our credit risk is evaluated by major independent rating agencies based upon publicly available information as well as information obtained in our ongoing discussions with them. While we do not have any rating downgrade triggers that would accelerate the maturity of a material amount of our debt, previous downgrades have increased the cost of borrowing under our credit facility, have reduced market capacity for our commercial paper and have required the posting of additional collateral under some of our derivative contracts. In addition, any further downgrade to our credit ratings by any rating agencies may further impact us in a similar manner, and, depending on the extent of any such downgrade, could have a negative impact on our liquidity and capital position. We can access alternative sources of funding, including drawdowns under our credit facility, if necessary, to offset potential reductions in the market capacity for our commercial paper.

CONTRACTUAL AND OTHER OBLIGATIONS
Retirement and Post-Retirement Benefit Plan Contributions
As of January 31, 2020, we anticipate making contributions for the remainder of fiscal year 2020 of approximately $63 million to our non-U.S. pension plans, $29 million to cover benefit payments to U.S. non-qualified pension plan participants and $5 million to cover benefit claims for our post-retirement benefit plans. Our policy is to fund our pension plans so that we meet at least the minimum contribution required by local government, funding and taxing authorities. For more information on our retirement and post-retirement benefit plans, see Note 4, “Retirement and Post-Retirement Benefit Plans”, to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Cost Savings Plan
As a result of our approved restructuring plans, including the Fiscal 2020 Plan, we expect to make future cash payments of approximately $1.0 billion. We expect to make future cash payments of $477 million in fiscal year 2020 with remaining cash payments through fiscal year 2023. For more information on our restructuring activities that are part of our cost improvements, see Note 3, “Restructuring and Other Charges”, to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Uncertain Tax Positions
As of January 31, 2020, we had approximately $581 million of recorded liabilities and related interest and penalties pertaining to uncertain tax positions. We are unable to make a reasonable estimate as to when cash settlement with the tax authorities might occur due to the uncertainties related to these tax matters. Payments of these obligations would result from settlements with taxing authorities. For more information on our uncertain tax positions, see Note 5, “Taxes on Earnings”, to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Payment of one-time transition taxes under the TCJA
The TCJA made significant changes to U.S. tax law resulting in a one-time gross transition tax of $3.0 billion on accumulated foreign earnings. We expect the actual cash payments for the tax to be much lower as we expect to reduce the overall liability by more than half once existing and future credits and other balance sheet attributes are used. The payments associated with this one-time transition tax will be paid over eight years which began fiscal year 2019.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
As part of our ongoing business, we have not participated in transactions that generate material relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
For quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk affecting HP, see “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in Item 7A of Part II of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2019. Our exposure to market risk has not changed materially since October 31, 2019.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this report (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded as of the Evaluation Date that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the information required to be disclosed by us in our SEC reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to HP’s management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during our most recently completed fiscal quarter. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that there has not been any change in our internal control over financial reporting during that quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
Information with respect to this item may be found in Note 12, “Litigation and Contingencies” to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
Our operations and financial results are subject to various risks and uncertainties, including those described in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2019, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, and the trading price of our common and capital stock. Other than the risk factors set forth below, there have been no material changes in our risk factors since our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2019.
Risks related to our business
Our business could be negatively affected as a result of an unsolicited tender offer and threatened proxy contest.

On January 23, 2020, Xerox delivered a letter to us nominating 11 director candidates for election to HP’s Board of Directors at our 2020 annual meeting of stockholders (the “2020 Annual Meeting”) in opposition to the nominees proposed by our Board. It is possible that Xerox-nominated directors could constitute a majority of the Board following the 2020 Annual Meeting.  On March 2, 2020, Xerox launched an unsolicited tender offer for all of our outstanding shares of common stock for $18.40 in cash and 0.149 Xerox shares for each of our shares. After careful consideration of the Offer in consultation with HP’s independent outside financial and legal advisors, the Board determined that the Offer is not in the best interest of HP’s stockholders and recommended that HP stockholders reject the Offer and not tender their shares into the Offer. On March 5, 2020, we filed a solicitation/recommendation statement on Schedule 14D-9 with the SEC containing the Board’s recommendation.

These events have required us, and may continue to require us, to incur significant legal fees and proxy solicitation expenses, and have required, and may continue to require, significant time and attention by management and the Board. Further, any perceived uncertainties among current and potential customers, clients, suppliers, employees and other constituencies as to our future direction as a consequence of these events may result in lost sales and the loss of potential business opportunities and may make it more difficult to attract and retain qualified personnel and business partners. Actions that our Board has taken, and may take in the future, in response to any offer, proxy contest and related actions by Xerox or any other offer or proposal may result in litigation against us. These lawsuits may be a significant distraction for our management and employees and may require us to incur significant costs. Moreover, if determined adversely to us, these lawsuits could harm our business and have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

We believe the future trading price of our common stock could be subject to wide price fluctuations based on uncertainty associated with the Offer and the related proxy contest. If Xerox consummates the Offer with the result that it becomes the owner of additional shares of our common stock or if Xerox’s nominees are elected such that they constitute a majority of our Board , then additional consequences are likely to follow that could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results or financial condition, the value of our shares of common stock or stockholders’ interests in the Company.

The shareholder rights plan adopted by our Board may impair a takeover attempt.

On February 20, 2020, our Board adopted a shareholder rights plan and declared a dividend of one preferred share purchase right for each outstanding share of our common stock to stockholders of record on March 2, 2020.  The dividend distribution was made on March 2, 2020.  In the event that a person or group acquires beneficial ownership of 20% or more of our then outstanding common stock, subject to certain exceptions, each right would entitle its holder (other than such person or members of such group) to purchase additional shares of our common stock at a substantial discount to the public market price.  In addition, at any time after a person or group acquires 20% or more of our outstanding common stock (unless such person or group acquires 50% or more), the Board may exchange one share of our common stock for each outstanding right (other than rights owned by such person or group, which would have become void).  The shareholder rights plan could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire the Company or a large block of our common stock without the approval of our Board.  The rights will expire on February 20, 2021.


54



Unanticipated changes in our tax provisions, the adoption of new tax legislation or exposure to additional tax liabilities could affect our financial performance.
We are subject to income and other taxes in the United States and various foreign jurisdictions. Our tax liabilities are affected by the amounts we charge in intercompany transactions for inventory, services, licenses, funding and other items. We are subject to ongoing tax audits in various jurisdictions. Tax authorities may disagree with these intercompany transactions or other matters and may assess additional taxes or adjust taxable income on our tax returns as a result. We regularly assess the likely outcomes of these audits in order to determine the appropriateness of our tax provision. However, we cannot assure you that we will accurately predict the outcomes of these audits, and the amounts ultimately paid upon resolution of audits could be materially different from the amounts previously included in our income tax expense and therefore could have a material impact on our tax provision, net income and cash flows.
Our effective tax rate in the future could be adversely affected by changes to our operating structure, changes in the mix of earnings in countries with differing statutory tax rates, changes in the valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities or changes in tax laws or in their interpretation or enforcement. In addition, tax legislation has been introduced or is being considered in various jurisdictions that could significantly impact our tax rate, the carrying value of deferred tax assets, or our deferred tax liabilities. Any of these changes could affect our financial performance.

On June 19, 2018, HP’s Board of Directors authorized $4.0 billion for future repurchases of its outstanding shares of common stock. On September 30, 2019, the Board of Directors authorized an additional $5.0 billion for future repurchases of its outstanding shares of common stock. This program, which does not have a specific expiration date, authorizes repurchases in the open market or in private transactions. HP intends to use repurchases from time to time to offset the dilution created by shares issued under employee stock plans and to repurchase shares opportunistically. All share repurchases settled in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020 were open market transactions. As of January 31, 2020, HP had approximately $5.8 billion remaining under the share repurchase authorizations.
Furthermore, on February 22, 2020, HP’s Board of Directors increased HP’s remaining share repurchase authorization to $15.0 billion in total, and HP expects to repurchase at least $8.0 billion of HP’s shares in the twelve months following its 2020 annual meeting.

connection with a change in control and who execute a full and effective release of claims following such termination are eligible to receive severance benefits in an amount determined as a multiple of base pay, plus the average of the actual annual incentives paid for the three full fiscal years most recently completed (or, in the case of a participant who has not received three full fiscal year annual bonuses at his or her current seniority level as of the date of termination, the participant’s applicable target annual incentive opportunity for the year of termination). In the case of participants in the Executive 1 and Executive 2 bands, the multiplier is 1.5 and 1.0, respectively. In the case of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, the multiplier is 2.0. In addition to the cash severance benefit, SPEO participants are eligible for (a) a pro-rata annual incentive for the year of termination based on actual performance results, at the discretion of the HR and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company, (b) pro-rata vesting of unvested equity awards (and for performance-based equity awards, only if any applicable performance conditions have been satisfied at the end of the applicable performance period), with any vested stock options to remain exercisable for one year following termination (subject to earlier expiration), (c) payment of a lump-sum health-benefit stipend of an amount equal to the excess of 18 months’ COBRA premiums for continued group medical coverage for the participant and his or her eligible dependents over the amount payable by an active employee for such coverage, and (d) any accrued but unpaid annual bonus for a completed fiscal year.
Upon a participant’s involuntary termination not for cause or voluntary termination for good reason within 24 months after a change in control, and subject to the participant’s execution of a full and effective release of claims following such termination, the SPEO provides for the cash severance payment, health benefit stipend and accrued but unpaid annual bonus a completed fiscal year as described above, as well as (x) a pro-rata annual incentive for the year of termination based on target levels of performance, and (y) full vesting of unvested equity awards that are assumed or replaced in the change in control, with performance-based awards that remain subject to performance criteria as of the date of the qualifying termination vesting based on target levels. Any equity awards that are not assumed or replaced in connection with a change in control would vest in full upon the change in control, with performance-based awards that remain subject to performance criteria as of the date of the change in control vesting based on target levels.
In the event of any dispute under the SPEO relating to a participant’s termination of employment within 24 months following a change in control, the Company will reimburse all related legal fees and expenses reasonably incurred by the participant if claims are brought in good faith.
The participation of the Company’s executive officers in the SPEO is subject to the terms of the HP Severance Policy for Senior Executives (the “HP Severance Policy”), whereby the total benefit provided pursuant to the SPEO may not exceed 2.99 times the sum of the executive officer’s base pay plus target annual incentive as in effect immediately prior to termination of employment, subject to certain exceptions. A more complete description of the HP Severance Policy is set forth in the Company’s Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A filed with the SEC on February 27, 2020.

THIS GRANT AGREEMENT, as of the Grant Date set forth above between HP Inc., a Delaware corporation (“HP”), and the Director named above, is entered into as follows:

WHEREAS, HP has established the Second Amended and Restated HP Inc. 2004 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), a copy of which has been made available to the Director and is made a part hereof; and

WHEREAS, the Director has elected to receive a portion of his/her annual retainer in the form of an option under the Plan, as hereinafter set forth;






NOW THEREFORE, the parties hereby agree that in consideration of services rendered and to be rendered, HP grants the Director an option (the “Option”) to purchase the number noted above of its $0.01 par value HP common stock (the “Shares”) upon the terms and conditions set forth herein.

1.
This Option is granted under and pursuant to the Plan and is subject to each and all of the provisions thereof.
2.
The Option price shall be the per Share Grant Price set forth above.

3.
This Option is not transferable by the Director otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and is exercisable only by the Director during his/her lifetime. This Option may not be transferred, assigned, pledged, or hypothecated by the Director during his/her lifetime, whether by operation of law or otherwise, and is not subject to execution, attachment or similar process.

4.
The Shares underlying this Option shall be fully vested as of the Grant Date.

5.
This Option will expire ten (10) years from the Grant Date set forth above, unless sooner terminated or canceled in accordance with the provisions of the Plan.

7.
All rights of the Director in this Option, to the extent that it has not been exercised, shall terminate upon the death of the Director (except as hereinafter provided). The Director may, by written notice to HP, designate one or more persons, including his/her legal representative, who shall by reason of the Director’s death acquire the right to exercise all or a portion of the Director’s Option. The person so designated must exercise this Option within the term of this Option set forth in paragraph 5. The person designated to exercise this Option after the Director’s death shall be bound by the provisions of the Plan.

Name: ________________________    Relationship: ________________________

Name: ________________________    Relationship: ________________________

The Director agrees that the designation above shall apply to this Option and all previous options granted to the Director under the Plan, and this designation shall supersede all previous designations, unless the Director indicates otherwise.
The Director may change the above designation at any time by filing with the Secretary of HP (or his/her delegate) a written notice of change.

9.
The Director agrees to receive stockholder information, including copies of any annual report, proxy and Form 10K, from the investor relations section of the HP web site at www.hp.com. The Director acknowledges that additional copies of the Plan, Plan prospectus, Plan information and stockholder information are available upon written or telephonic request to HP’s Secretary (or his/her delegate).

Restricted Stock Units

THIS GRANT AGREEMENT, as of the Grant Date set forth above between HP Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the Director named above, is entered into as follows:

WHEREAS, the Company has established the Second Amended and Restated HP Inc. 2004 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), a copy of which has been made available to the Director and is made part hereof, and unless otherwise defined in this Grant Agreement, any capitalized terms in this Grant Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Plan; and

WHEREAS, the Director has filed an election in accordance with the terms of his/her service on the Company’s Board of Directors to be granted a Restricted Stock Unit (“RSU”) Award under the Plan as hereinafter set forth below;

WHEREAS, each RSU is equal in value to one share of Company common stock ("Share") subject to the restrictions set forth below;

NOW THEREFORE, the parties hereby agree that in consideration of services rendered and to be rendered, the Company grants the Director the number of RSUs set forth above upon the terms and conditions set forth herein.

1.
Vesting Schedule.
Except as provided in Section 9 below, the interest of the Director in the RSUs shall vest in full upon the Grant Date.






2.
Benefit Upon Vesting.
Upon the vesting of the RSUs, the Director (or the Director’s estate or designated beneficiary in the event of Section 9) shall be entitled to receive, as soon as administratively practicable, after the vesting date, but in any event within 75 days, Shares equal to:
(a)
the number of RSUs that have vested, and
(b)
a dividend equivalent payment in Shares determined by multiplying (1) the number of vested RSUs by the dividend per Share on each dividend payment date between the Grant Date and the date when Shares are delivered to the Director to determine the dividend equivalent amount for each dividend payment date; and (2) dividing the amount determined in (1) by the Fair Market Value of a Share on such dividend payment date to determine the number of additional Shares to be delivered to the Director; provided, however, that if any aggregated dividend equivalents would result in a payment of a fractional Share, such fractional Share shall be rounded up to the next whole Share.
Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, in the event the Director has made a valid deferral election in accordance with Section 3, Shares will not be delivered at vesting but will instead be delivered in accordance with the provisions of the applicable deferral election and Section 3.

3.
Deferral Election.
The Director may elect to defer delivery of the Shares that are otherwise due to the Director upon vesting by completing a prescribed deferral election form and returning it to the Company according to the instructions on the deferral election form. The deferral election form will be distributed separately. If made, the deferral election is irrevocable by the Director. The Director shall generally receive his or her Shares in accordance with the distribution election made in the deferral election form; however, notwithstanding anything in this Grant Agreement or deferral election form to the contrary, in the event the Director is a "specified employee" as determined pursuant to Section 409A, at the time that the Director receives a payment in connection with the Director’s “separation from service” as determined pursuant to Section 409A (other than for death), the payment shall instead be made on the earlier of the first U.S. business day after the date that is (i) six months following the Director’s separation from service as determined pursuant to Section 409A or (ii) the date of the Director’s death to the extent such delayed payment is otherwise required to avoid a prohibited distribution under Section 409A.

4.
Taxes.
Regardless of any action the Company takes with respect to any or all income tax (including federal, state and local taxes), social insurance, payroll tax, or other tax-related withholding ("Tax-Related Items"), the Director acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by the Director is and remains the Director's responsibility and that the Company (i) makes no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the RSUs, including the grant of the RSUs, the vesting of the RSUs, the conversion of the RSUs into Shares, the subsequent sale of any Shares acquired at vesting, the receipt of any dividends, or the sufficiency of any payments made for or by the Director to satisfy the Tax-Related Items; and (ii) does not commit to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the RSUs to reduce or eliminate the Director’s liability for Tax-Related Items.

5.
Restrictions on Issuance.
No Shares will be issued in connection with the RSU if the issuance of such Shares would constitute a violation of any Applicable Laws.

6.
Transferability of Award.
The RSUs may not be transferred, pledged, sold, assigned, alienated or otherwise encumbered by the Director in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. Any such purported transfer, pledge, sale, assignment, alienation or encumbrance will be void and unenforceable against the Company. The terms of this Grant Agreement shall be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs and successors of the Director.






7.
Custody of Restricted Stock Units.
The RSUs subject hereto shall be held in a book entry account in the name of the Director. Upon vesting of the RSUs, the Shares shall be released into the Director’s account.

8.
No Stockholder Rights.
RSUs represent hypothetical Shares. Until the Shares are issued and the Director becomes a holder of record of the Shares, the Director shall not be entitled to any of the rights or benefits generally accorded to stockholders until the Shares are issued to the Director and the Director becomes a holder of record of the Shares.

9.
Section 409A.
Payments made pursuant to this Plan and this Grant Agreement are intended to comply with or qualify for an exemption from Section 409A. The Company reserves the right, to the extent the Company deems necessary or advisable in its sole discretion, to unilaterally amend or modify the Plan and/or this Grant Agreement or adopt other policies and procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive effect), or take any other actions, including any amendments or actions that would result in the reduction of benefits payable under this Grant Agreement, as the Company determines are necessary or appropriate to ensure that all RSUs are made in a manner that qualifies for an exemption from, or complies with, Section 409A or mitigate any additional tax, interest and/or penalties or other adverse tax consequences that may apply under Section 409A, provided however, that the Company makes no representations that the RSUs will be exempt from any penalties that may apply under Section 409A and makes no undertaking to preclude Section 409A from applying to this RSU. For the avoidance of doubt, the Director hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Company will have no liability to the Director or any other party if any amounts payable under this Grant Agreement are not exempt from, or compliant with, Section 409A, or for any action taken by the Company with respect thereto.

10.
Governing Law.
This Grant Agreement is governed by the laws of the state of Delaware without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

11.
Integration.
The Plan is incorporated herein by reference. The Plan and this Grant Agreement constitute the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede in their entirety all prior undertakings and agreements of the Company and the Director with respect to the subject matter hereof.

12.
Plan Information.
The Director agrees to receive information, including copies of any annual report, proxy and Form 10-K, from the investor relations section of the Company's website at www.hp.com. The Director acknowledges that copies of the Plan, Plan prospectus, Plan information and stockholder information are available upon written or telephonic request to the Company Secretary (or his or her delegate).

Restricted Stock Units

THIS GRANT AGREEMENT, as of the Grant Date noted above between HP Inc., a Delaware Corporation (“Company”), and the employee named above (“Employee”), is entered into as follows:

WHEREAS, the continued participation of the Employee is considered by the Company to be important for the Company's continued growth; and

WHEREAS, in order to give the Employee an incentive to continue in the employ of the Company (or its Affiliates or Subsidiaries), to accept ancillary agreements designed to protect the legitimate business interests of the Company that are made a condition of this grant and to participate in the affairs of the Company, the HR and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company or its delegates (“Committee”) has determined that the Employee shall be granted restricted stock units representing hypothetical shares of the Company’s common stock (“RSUs”), with each RSU equal in value to one share of the Company’s $0.01 par value common stock (“Share”), subject to the restrictions stated below and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the plan named above (“Plan”), a copy of which can be found on the Long-term Incentives website along with a copy of the related prospectus. The Plan and the related prospectus also can be obtained by written or telephonic request to the Company Secretary. Unless otherwise defined in this Grant Agreement, any capitalized terms in this Grant Agreement shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the Plan.

THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:

1.
Grant of Restricted Stock Units.
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Grant Agreement and of the Plan, the Company hereby grants to the Employee the number of RSUs set forth above.

2.
Vesting Schedule.
The interest of the Employee in the RSUs shall vest according to the vesting schedule set forth above, or if earlier, in accordance with Section 8 or 9, below, except to the extent a severance plan applicable to the Employee provides otherwise. Unless the provisions of Section 8 or 9 apply, the Employee must remain in the employ of the Company, any Subsidiary or Affiliate on a continuous basis through the close of business on the applicable Vesting Date, as set forth above, and the Employee must be





in compliance with the requirements and conditions provided for in the Plan and this Grant Agreement for the interest of the Employee in the RSUs to become fully vested on that date.

3.
Benefit Upon Settlement.
Within 75 days of each Vesting Date set forth on the above vesting schedule or, if earlier, a vesting event pursuant to Section 8 or 9 below, the Company shall deliver or pay, as applicable, to the Employee (or the Employee’s guardian, estate or beneficiary in the event of Section 8 or 9) Shares or a combination of cash and Shares, as the Company determines in its sole discretion, with a value equal to:

(a)
the number of RSUs that have become vested as of such vesting date or vesting event, as applicable, multiplied by the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date on which such RSUs vested; plus
(b)
a dividend equivalent payment credited in the form of additional RSUs for each ordinary cash dividend the Company pays on its Shares and for which the record date occurs between the grant date and the date the RSUs are settled, determined by:
(1)
multiplying the per share cash dividend paid by the Company on its Shares by the total number of RSUs that are outstanding as of the record date for the dividend; and
(2)
dividing the amount determined in (1) above by the Fair Market Value of a Share on the dividend payment date to determine the number of additional whole and fractional RSUs to be credited to the Employee;
provided, however, that if any aggregated dividend equivalent payments in Section (b)(2) above to be delivered in Shares result in a payment of a fractional Share, such fractional Share shall be rounded up to the next whole Share.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may, in its sole discretion, settle the RSUs in the form of a cash payment to the extent settlement in Shares: (i) is prohibited under local law; (ii) would require the Employee, the Company and/or any Subsidiary or Affiliate to obtain the approval of any governmental and/or regulatory body in the Employee's country; (iii) would result in adverse tax consequences for the Employee, the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate; or (iv) is administratively burdensome. Alternatively, the Company may, in its sole discretion, settle the RSUs in the form of Shares but require the Employee to sell such Shares immediately or within a specified period of time following the Employee’s termination of employment (in which case the Employee expressly authorizes the Company to issue sales instructions on the Employee's behalf).

4.
Restrictions.
Except as otherwise provided for in this Grant Agreement, the RSUs or rights granted hereunder may not be sold, pledged or otherwise transferred. The period of time between the Grant Date and the date the RSUs become fully vested pursuant to Section 2 is referred to herein as the “Restriction Period.”
5.
Custody of Restricted Stock Units.
The RSUs subject hereto shall be recorded in an account with the Plan broker in the name of the Employee. Upon termination of the Restriction Period, if the Company determines, in its sole discretion, to deliver Shares pursuant to Section 3 above, such Shares shall be released into the Employee’s account; provided, however, that a portion of such Shares shall be surrendered in payment of Tax-Related Items, as defined and in accordance with Section 11 below, unless the Company, in its sole discretion, establishes alternative procedures for the payment of Tax-Related Items.

6.
No Stockholder Rights.
RSUs represent hypothetical Shares. Until Shares are delivered to the Employee pursuant to the terms of this Grant Agreement, the Employee shall not be entitled to any of the rights or benefits generally accorded to stockholders, including, without limitation, the receipt of dividends.

7.
Termination of Employment.
Except as otherwise provided for in this Grant Agreement or in the Plan or as otherwise determined by the Company in its sole discretion, if the Employee's employment with the Company, any Subsidiary or Affiliate is terminated at any time for any reason prior to the lapse of the Restriction Period, all unvested RSUs granted hereunder shall be forfeited by the Employee, except to the extent a severance plan applicable to the Employee provides otherwise.

For purposes of this Grant Agreement, the Employee's employment or service will be considered terminated as of the date he or she is no longer actively providing services to the Company, any Subsidiary or Affiliate (regardless of the reason for such termination and whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction where the Employee is employed or retained or the terms of the Employee's employment or service agreement, if any) and will not be extended by any notice period (e.g., the Employee's period of employment or service would not include any contractual notice period or any period of “garden leave” or similar period mandated under the employment laws in the jurisdiction where the Employee is employed or retained or the terms of the Employee's employment or service agreement, if any). The Committee shall have





the exclusive discretion to determine when the Employee's employment or service is terminated for purposes of this Grant Agreement (including whether the Employee may still be considered to be providing service while on a leave of absence).

8.
Disability of the Employee.
If the Employee’s employment is terminated prior to the end of the Restriction Period by reason of the Employee’s Total and Permanent Disability, all RSUs shall immediately vest including any amounts for dividend equivalent payments on RSUs that vest at termination subject to the condition that the Employee shall have executed a current Agreement Regarding Confidential Information and Proprietary Developments (“ARCIPD”) that is satisfactory to the Company, and shall not have engaged in any conduct that creates a conflict of interest in the opinion of the Company.

9.
Death of the Employee.
In the event that termination of employment prior to the end of the Restriction Period is due to the death of the Employee, all unvested RSUs shall immediately vest including any amounts for dividend equivalent payments on such vested RSUs.

10.
Section 409A.
The following provisions apply to the extent the Employee is subject to taxation in the U.S. Payments made pursuant to the Plan and this Grant Agreement are intended to comply with or qualify for an exemption from Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”). The Company reserves the right, to the extent the Company deems necessary or advisable in its sole discretion, to unilaterally amend or modify the Plan and/or this Grant Agreement or adopt other policies and procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive effect), or take any other actions, including any amendments or actions that would result in the reduction of benefits payable under this Grant Agreement, as the Company determines are necessary or appropriate to ensure that all RSUs and dividend equivalent payments are made in a manner that qualifies for an exemption from, or complies with, Section 409A or mitigate any additional tax, interest and/or penalties or other adverse tax consequences that may apply under Section 409A: provided however, that the Company makes no representations that the RSUs or dividend equivalents will be exempt from any taxes, interest, and/or penalties that may apply under Section 409A and makes no undertaking to preclude Section 409A from applying to this RSU. For the avoidance of doubt, the Employee hereby acknowledges and agrees that neither the Company nor any Affiliate or Subsidiary will have any liability to the Employee or any other party if any amounts payable under this Grant Agreement are not exempt from, or compliant with, Section 409A, or for any action taken by the Company with respect thereto. Any payments under this Grant Agreement, the settlement of which is triggered by a "separation from service" (within the meaning of Section 409A) of a "specified employee" (as defined under Section 409A), shall  be made on a date that is the earlier of (a) the Employee’s death or (b) the later of the specified settlement date and the date which is six months after the date of the Employee’s separation from service.

11.
Taxes.
(a)
The Employee shall be liable for any and all taxes, including income tax, social insurance, fringe benefit tax, payroll tax, payment on account, employer taxes or other tax-related items related to the Employee’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to or otherwise recoverable from the Employee by the Company and/or, if different, the Employee’s employer (the “Employer”) whether incurred at grant, vesting, sale, prior to vesting or at any other time (“Tax-Related Items”). In the event that the Company or the Employer (which, for purposes of this Section 11, shall include a former employer) is required, allowed or permitted to withhold taxes as a result of the grant or vesting of RSUs or the issuance or subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such RSUs, or due upon receipt of dividend equivalent payments or dividends, the Employee shall surrender a sufficient number of whole Shares, make a cash payment or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to withhold such taxes from Employee’s wages or other cash compensation paid to the Employee by the Company and/or the Employer at the election of the Company, in its sole discretion, or, if permissible under local law, the Company may sell or arrange for the sale of Shares that Employee acquires as necessary to cover all Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer has to withhold or that are legally recoverable from the Employee (such as fringe benefit tax) at the time the restrictions on the RSUs lapse, unless the Company, in its sole discretion, has established alternative procedures for such payment. However, with respect to any RSUs subject to Section 409A, the Employer shall limit the surrender of Shares to the minimum number of Shares permitted to avoid a prohibited acceleration under Section 409A. The Employee will receive a cash refund for any fraction of a surrendered Share or Shares in excess of any and all Tax-Related Items. To the extent that any surrender of Shares or payment of cash or alternative procedure for such payment is insufficient, the Employee authorizes the Company, its Affiliates and Subsidiaries, which are qualified to deduct tax at source, to deduct from the Employee’s compensation all Tax-Related Items. The Employee agrees to pay any Tax-Related Items that cannot be satisfied from wages or other cash compensation, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law.

(b)
Regardless of any action the Company or the Employer takes with respect to any or all Tax-Related Items, the Employee acknowledges and agrees that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items is and remains the Employee’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the Employer. The Employee further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer: (i) make no representations nor undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of this grant of RSUs or dividend equivalents, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting or settlement of RSUs or dividend equivalents, the subsequent delivery of Shares and/or cash upon settlement of such RSUs or the subsequent sale of any Shares acquired pursuant to such RSUs and receipt of any dividends or dividend equivalent payments; and (ii) notwithstanding Section 10, do not commit to and are under no obligation





to structure the terms or any aspect of this grant of RSUs and/or dividend equivalents to reduce or eliminate the Employee’s liability for Tax-Related Items or to achieve any particular tax result. Further, if the Employee has become subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction, the Employee acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.

(c)
Depending on the withholding method, the Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable statutory withholding rates or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum applicable rates in the Employee’s jurisdiction(s), in which case the Employee will receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash and will have no entitlement to the Share equivalent. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in Shares, for tax purposes, the Employee is deemed to have been issued the full number of shares of Common Stock subject to the vested RSUs, notwithstanding that a number of the shares of Common Stock are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items.

(d)
The Employee shall pay the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for as a result of the Employee’s participation in the Plan or the Employee’s receipt of RSUs that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to deliver the benefit described in Section 3 if the Employee fails to comply with the Employee’s obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.

(e)
The Employee consents and agrees that in the event the RSUs or the dividend equivalents become subject to an employer tax that is legally permitted to be recovered from the Employee, as may be determined by the Company and/or the Employer at their sole discretion, and whether or not the Employee’s employment with the Company and/or the Employer is continuing at the time such tax becomes recoverable, the Employee will assume any liability for any such taxes that may be payable by the Company and/or the Employer in connection with the RSUs and dividend equivalents. Further, the Employee agrees that the Company and/or the Employer may collect any such taxes from the Employee by any of the means set forth in this Section 11. The Employee further agrees to execute any other consents or elections required to accomplish the above, promptly upon request of the Company.

12.
Data Privacy Consent.
(a)
The Employee hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of the Employee’s personal data as described in this Grant Agreement and any other materials by and among, as applicable, the Company, its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, and the Employer for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Employee’s participation in the Plan.

(b)
The Employee understands that the Company, its Subsidiaries and Affiliates, and the Employer may hold certain personal information about the Employee, including, but not limited to, name, home address, email address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number, passport number or other identification number, salary, nationality, residency, status, job title, any shares of stock or directorships held in the Company, details of all RSUs, options or any other entitlement to shares of stock granted, canceled, purchased, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in the Employee’s favor (“Data”) for the exclusive purpose of implementing, managing and administering the Plan.

(c)
The Employee understands that Data may be transferred to Merrill Lynch and any third parties assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan, that these recipients may be located in the Employee’s country or elsewhere, and that the recipient’s country may have different data privacy laws and protections than the Employee’s country. The Company is committed to protecting the privacy of Data in such cases. The Employee understands that by contract both with the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates and with Merrill Lynch and/or the Company’s other vendors, the people and companies that have access to the Employee’s Data are bound to handle such Data in a manner consistent with the Company’s privacy policy and law. The Company periodically performs due diligence and audits on its vendors in accordance with good commercial practices to ensure their capabilities and compliance with those commitments. The Employee further understands that Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage the Employee’s participation in the Plan.

(d)
The Employee understands that if he or she resides outside the United States, the Employee may, at any time, view Data, request additional information about the storage and processing of Data, require any necessary amendments to Data or refuse or withdraw the consents herein, in any case without cost, by contacting in writing his or her local human resources representative. Further, the Employee understands that he or she is providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis. If the Employee does not consent, or if the Employee later seeks to revoke his or her consent, the Employee's employment status or service with the Company or his or her Employer will not be affected; the only consequence of refusing or withdrawing the Employee’s consent is that the Company would not be able to grant the Employee RSUs or other equity awards or administer and manage the Employee’s participation in the Plan. Therefore, the Employee understands that refusing or withdrawing his or her consent may affect the Employee’s ability to participate in the Plan. For more information on the consequences of the Employee’s refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, the Employee understands that he or she may contact his or her local human resources representative.






(e)
Further, the Employee understands that the Company may rely on a different legal basis for the processing and/or transfer of Data in the future and/or request that the Employee provide another data privacy consent. If applicable and upon request of the Company or a Subsidiary or Affiliate, the Employee agrees to provide an executed data privacy consent or acknowledgement (or any other consents, acknowledgements or agreements) to the Company or a Subsidiary or Affiliate that the Company and/or a Subsidiary or Affiliate may deem necessary to obtain under the data privacy laws in the Employee’s country of employment, either now or in the future. The Employee understands that he or she may be unable to participate in the Plan if he or she fails to execute any such acknowledgement, agreement or consent requested by the Company and/or a Subsidiary or Affiliate.

By electronically accepting RSUs on the Merrill Lynch website, the Employee is declaring that the Employee agrees with the data processing practices described in this Section 12 and that the Employee consents to the collection, processing and use of Data by the Company and the transfer of Data to the recipients mentioned therein for the purposes described therein.

13.
Plan Information.
The Employee agrees to receive copies of the Plan, the Plan prospectus and other Plan information, including information prepared to comply with Applicable Laws outside the United States, from the Long-term Incentives website and stockholder information, including copies of any annual report, proxy and Form 10-K, from the investor relations section of the Company's website at www.hp.com. The Employee acknowledges that copies of the Plan, Plan prospectus, Plan information and stockholder information are available upon written or telephonic request to the Company Secretary. The Employee hereby consents to receive any documents related to current or future participation in the Plan by electronic delivery and agrees to participate in the Plan through an on-line or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or a third party designated by the Company.

14.
Acknowledgment and Waiver.
The Employee understands, acknowledges and agrees that:

(a)
except as provided in Sections 8 and 9, the vesting of the RSUs is earned only by continuing employment with the Company or one of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates and that being hired and granted RSUs will not result in the RSUs vesting;

(b)
this Grant Agreement and its incorporated documents reflect all agreements on its subject matters and the Employee is not accepting this Grant Agreement based on any promises, representations or inducements other than those reflected in this Grant Agreement;

(c)
all good faith decisions and interpretations of the Committee regarding the Plan and RSUs granted under the Plan are binding, conclusive and final;

(d)
the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, it is discretionary in nature and may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time;
 
(e)
the grant of RSUs is exceptional, voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of RSUs or other awards, or benefits in lieu of RSUs, even if Shares or RSUs have been granted in the past;

(f)
all decisions with respect to future grants, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company;

(g)
the Employee’s participation in the Plan shall not create a right to further employment with the Employer and shall not interfere with the ability of the Employer to terminate the Employee’s employment relationship at any time and it is expressly agreed and understood that employment is terminable at the will of either party;

(h)
the Employee is voluntarily participating in the Plan;
 
(i)
RSUs and their resulting benefits are extraordinary items that are outside the scope of the Employee’s employment contract, if any;

(j)
RSUs and their resulting benefits are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation;

(k)
RSUs and their resulting benefits are not part of 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, holiday pay, long-service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar payments;

(l)
unless otherwise agreed by the Company, the RSUs and their resulting benefits are not granted as consideration for, or in connection with, the service the Employee may provide as a director of a Subsidiary or Affiliate;






(m)
this grant of RSUs will not be interpreted to form an employment contract or relationship with the Company, and furthermore, this grant of RSUs will not be interpreted to form an employment contract with any Subsidiary or Affiliate;

(n)
the future value of the underlying Shares is unknown, indeterminable and cannot be predicted with certainty;

(o)
no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from forfeiture of the RSUs resulting from termination of Employee’s employment (regardless of the reason for such termination and whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction where the Employee is employed or retained or the terms of the Employee's employment or service agreement, if any), and in consideration of the grant of the RSUs to which the Employee is otherwise not entitled, the Employee irrevocably agrees never to institute any claim against the Company, the Employer or any other Subsidiary or Affiliate and releases the Company, the Employer and any other Subsidiary and Affiliate from any such claim; if, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is allowed by a court of competent jurisdiction, then, by participating in the Plan, the Employee shall be deemed irrevocably to have agreed not to pursue such claim and to have agreed to execute any and all documents necessary to request dismissal or withdrawal of such claims;

(p)
the Company, the Employer or any other Subsidiary or Affiliate will not be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between the Employee’s local currency and the United States dollar that may affect the value of the RSUs or any amounts due to the Employee pursuant to the settlement of the RSUs or the subsequent sale of any Shares acquired upon settlement;

(q)
if the Company determines that the Employee has engaged in misconduct prohibited by Applicable Law or any applicable policy of the Company, as in effect from time to time, or the Company is required to make recovery from the Employee under Applicable Law or a Company policy adopted to comply with applicable legal requirements, then the Company may, in its sole discretion, to the extent it determines appropriate, (i) recover from the Employee the proceeds from RSUs vested up to three years prior to the Employee’s termination of employment or any time thereafter, (ii) cancel the Employee’s outstanding RSUs, and (iii) take any other action it deems to be required and appropriate; and

(r)
the delivery of any documents related to the Plan or Awards granted under the Plan, including the Plan, this Grant Agreement, the Plan prospectus and any reports of the Company generally provided to the Company’s stockholders, may be made by electronic delivery. Such means of electronic delivery may include the delivery of a link to a Company intranet or the Internet site of a third party involved in administering the Plan, the delivery of the document via electronic mail or other such means of electronic delivery specified by the Company. The Employee may receive from the Company a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically at no cost to the Employee by contacting the Company in writing in accordance with Section 17(k). If the attempted electronic delivery of any document fails, the Employee will be provided with a paper copy of such document. The Employee may revoke his or her consent to the electronic delivery of documents or may change the electronic mail address to which such documents are to be delivered (if the Employee has provided an electronic mail address) at any time by notifying the Company of such revoked consent or revised electronic mail address in accordance with Section 17(k). The Employee is not required to consent to the electronic delivery of documents.

15.

The Employee is hereby advised to consult with his or her own personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding his or her participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan.

16.

APPENDIX
HP INC. 2004 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN, AS AMENDED

GRANT AGREEMENT FOR NON-U.S. EMPLOYEES

Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Grant Agreement or the Plan.

This Appendix includes additional terms and conditions that govern the RSUs granted to the Employee if the Employee resides and/or is employed in one of the countries listed herein. This Appendix is part of the Grant Agreement.

If the Employee is a citizen or resident (or is considered as such for local law purposes) of a country other than the country in which the Employee is currently residing and/or employed, or if the Employee transfers to another country after the Grant Date, the Company shall, in its discretion, determine to what extent the special terms and conditions contained herein shall be applicable to the Employee.

This Appendix also includes information and notices regarding securities, exchange control, tax and certain other issues of which the Employee should be aware with respect to his or her participation in the Plan. The information is based on the securities, exchange control, tax and other laws in effect in the respective countries as of October 2019. Such laws are often complex and change frequently. As a result, the Company strongly recommends that the Employee not rely on the information contained herein as the only source of information relating to the consequences of his or her participation in the Plan because the information may be out of date at the time the Employee vests in the RSUs, receives Shares, a cash payment or a dividend equivalent payment upon vesting, sells any Shares acquired under the Plan or receive dividends paid on such Shares. In addition, the information is general in nature and may not apply to the Employee's particular situation, and the Company is not in a position to assure the Employee of any particular result. Therefore, the Employee is advised to seek appropriate professional advice as to how the relevant laws in his or her country may apply to the Employee's individual situation.

If the Employee is a citizen or resident (or is considered as such for local law purposes) of a country other than the country in which the Employee is currently residing and/or employed, or if the Employee transfers to another country after the Grant Date, the information contained herein may not be applicable to the Employee in the same manner.

European Union (“EU”) / European Economic Area (“EEA”)

Data Privacy. If the Employee resides or is employed in the EU or EEA, the following provision replaces Section 12 of the Grant Agreement.

The Company is located at 1501 Page Mill, Palo Alto, California 94304, USA and grants RSUs under the Plan to the Employee at the Company’s sole discretion. The Employee should review the following information about the Company’s data processing practices.

Data Collection and Usage. Pursuant to applicable data protection laws, the Employee is hereby notified that the Company collects, processes uses, and transfers certain personally-identifiable information about the Employee for the legitimate interest of implementing, administering and managing the Plan and generally administering equity awards; specifically, including the Employee’s name, home address, email address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, citizenship, job title, any Shares or directorships held in the Company, and details of all RSUs or any other awards granted, canceled, exercised, vested, or outstanding in the Employee’s favor, which the Company receives from the Employee or the Employer. In granting the Employee RSUs under the Plan, the Company will collect the Employee’s personal data for purposes of allocating Shares and implementing, administering and managing the Plan. The Company’s collection, processing, use and transfer of the Employee’s personal data is necessary for the performance of the Company’s contractual obligations under the Plan and pursuant to the Company’s legitimate interest of managing and generally administering employee equity awards. The Employee’s refusal to provide personal data would make it impossible for the Company to perform its contractual obligations and may affect the Employee’s ability to participate in the Plan. As such, by participating in the Plan, the Employee voluntarily acknowledges the collection, use, processing and transfer of the Employee’s personal data as described herein.

Stock Plan Administration Service Provider. The Company transfers the Employee’s data to Merrill Lynch, an independent service provider based in the United States, which assists the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. In the future, the Company may select a different service provider and share the Employee’s data with another company that serves in a similar manner. The Company’s service provider will open an account for the Employee to receive and trade Shares. The Employee will be asked to agree on separate terms and data processing practices with the service provider, which is a condition to the Employee’s ability to participate in the Plan.

International Data Transfers. The Company and its service providers are based in the United States. The Company can only meet its contractual obligations to the Employee if the Employee’s personal data is transferred to the United States. The performance of the Company’s contractual obligations to the Employee is one of the legal bases for the transfer of the Employee’s data from the





EU/EEA to the United States. The Employee should be aware that the United States has different data privacy laws and protections than the data privacy laws in place in the EU/EEA.

Data Retention. The Company will use the Employee’s personal data only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage the Employee’s participation in the Plan or as required to comply with legal or regulatory obligations, including under tax and security laws. When the Company no longer needs the Employee’s personal data, the Company will remove it from its systems. If the Company keeps the Employee’s data longer, it will be to satisfy legal, regulatory or tax obligations and the Company’s legal basis would be for compliance with relevant laws or regulations.

Data Subjects Rights. The Employee may have a number of rights under data privacy laws in the Employee’s country of employment (and country of residence, if different). For example, the Employee’s rights may include the right to (i) request access or copies of personal data the Company processes, (ii) request rectification of incorrect data, (iii) request deletion of data, (iv) place restrictions on processing, (v) lodge complaints with competent authorities in the Employee’s country, and/or (vi) request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of your personal data. To receive clarification regarding the Employee’s rights or to exercise his or her rights, the Employee should contact the Employee’s local HR manager or global.equity@hp.com

Terms and Conditions

Israeli Sub-Plan

Second Amended and Restated 2004 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Israeli Sub-Plan”), and are subject to the terms and conditions stated in the Israeli Sub-Plan, the Plan and the Grant Agreement, including this Appendix. The Employee acknowledges and agrees to be bound by the terms of the Israeli Sub-Plan. The Israeli Sub-Plan is incorporated herein by reference and references to the Plan include the Israeli Sub-Plan.

The RSUs and Shares issued upon vesting of such RSUs are intended to qualify for the tax treatment available in Israel pursuant to the provisions of the “capital gain route” under Section 102 of the Israeli Tax Ordinance (“Section 102”), including the provisions of the Income Tax (Tax Abatement on the Grant of Shares to Employees) Regulations 2003 (the “Regulations”), and any tax ruling or agreement obtained by the Company or the Employer with regard to the Plan. It is clarified that in order to qualify for the "capital gains route," the RSUs may be settled only in Shares.

Custody of RSUs
The following provisions replace Section 5 of the Grant Agreement:






5.    Custody of Restricted Stock Units.

(a) The RSUs subject hereto shall be held in trust by IBI Capital, as trustee (the “Trustee”) and further recorded in a restricted book entry account in the name of the Employee. Each RSU will be deemed granted on the date stated above, provided that (i) the Company has provided a copy of this Agreement to the Trustee and (ii) the Employee has signed all documents required pursuant to Applicable Law and under the Plan. Upon completion of the Restriction Period, Shares issued pursuant to Section 3 above shall be deposited with the Trustee (as further detailed below) in lieu of the RSUs previously held by the Trustee; provided, however, that a portion of such Shares may be surrendered in payment of any Tax-Related in accordance with Section 11 of this Grant Agreement, unless the Company, in its sole discretion, establishes alternative procedures for the payment of such taxes.

(b) Without derogating from the above, the Shares shall further be held in accordance with the undertakings of the Company and the Trustee, under a Trust Agreement in accordance with Section 102(b)(2) of the Israeli Tax Ordinance. Under the conditions of Section 102(b)(2), the RSUs and the Shares may be issued to the Employee only through the Trustee. To receive the tax treatment provided for in Section 102(b)(2), the RSUs and the Shares must be issued to the Trustee for a period of no less than 24 months from their Grant Date and deposit with the Trustee (the “Lock-Up Period”). In order for the tax benefits of Section 102(b)(2) to apply, as long as the RSUs are held by the Trustee, the RSUs or the underlying Shares may not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or mortgaged (other than through a transfer by will or by operation of law), nor may they be the subject of an attachment or security interest, and no power of attorney or transfer deed shall be given in respect thereof prior to the payment of the tax liability. Upon the conclusion of the Lock-Up Period the Trustee may release the Shares issued hereunder to the Employee only after (i) the receipt by the Trustee of an acknowledgment from the Israeli Income Tax Authority that the Employee has paid all applicable tax due pursuant to the Israeli Tax Ordinance and Section 102, or (ii) the Trustee withholds any applicable tax due pursuant to the Israeli Tax Ordinance and Section 102. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Employee shall elect to release the Shares prior to the conclusion of the Lock-up Period, the sanctions under Section 102 shall apply to and shall be borne solely by the Employee.

(c) The Employee understands that in the event of a distribution of rights, including an issuance of stock dividend or bonus shares, in connection with the RSU (the “Additional Rights”), all such Additional Rights shall be deposited with and/or issued to the Trustee for the benefit of the Employee, and shall also be subject to the provisions of Section 102(b)(2). The Lock-Up Period for such Additional Rights shall be measured from the commencement of the Lock-Up Period of the RSU to be issued hereunder, from which the Additional Rights were declared or distributed.

Death of the Employee
The following provision supplements Section 9 of the Grant Agreement:

As long as the Shares are held by the Trustee for the benefit of the Employee, all rights of the Employee over the Shares cannot be transferred, assigned, pledged or mortgaged, other than by will or laws of descent and distribution.

TO BE SIGNED BY THE ISRAELI EMPLOYEE WITH A COPY RETURNED TO PAYROLL ADMINISTRATION:

I have read and understood this Grant Agreement, including this Appendix. I understand that the rights granted and the Shares issued to me under this Grant Agreement are subject to the terms and provisions of Section 102(b)(2) of the Israeli Tax Ordinance and its related rules and regulations and I hereby accept such rights and Shares subject to such terms and provisions. I acknowledge that my holding, sale and transfer of the Shares and/or any Additional Rights is therefore subject to various restrictions and limitations that are imposed by such Section and its related rules and regulations, of which I am aware and with which I agree to comply.

Acknowledgment and Waiver
The following provisions supplement Section 14 of the Grant Agreement:

The Employee acknowledges that he or she consents to participation in the Plan and has received a copy of the Plan.

The Employee understands that the Company has unilaterally, gratuitously and discretionally decided to grant RSUs under the Plan to individuals who may be employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates throughout the world. The decision is a limited decision that is entered into upon the express assumption and condition that any grant will not economically or otherwise bind the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates on an ongoing basis except as provided in the Plan. Consequently, the Employee understands that the RSUs are granted on the assumption and condition that the RSUs or the Shares acquired upon vesting shall not become a part of any employment contract (either with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates) and shall not be considered a mandatory benefit, salary for any purposes (including severance compensation) or any other right whatsoever. In addition, the Employee understands that this grant would not be made to the Employee but for the assumptions and conditions referred to above; thus, the Employee acknowledges and freely accepts that should any or all of the assumptions be mistaken or should any of the conditions not be met for any reason, then the RSUs shall be null and void.

The RSUs are a conditional right to Shares and can be forfeited in the case of, or affected by, the Employee's termination of service or employment. This will be the case, for example, even if (1) the Employee is considered to be unfairly dismissed without good cause; (2) the Employee is dismissed for disciplinary or objective reasons or due to a collective dismissal; (3) the Employee terminates employment or service due to a change of work location, duties or any other employment or contractual condition; (4) the Employee terminates employment or service due to unilateral breach of contract of the Company, the Employer, or any other Subsidiary or Affiliate; or (5) the Employee's employment or service terminates for any other reason whatsoever, except for reasons specified in the Grant Agreement. Consequently, upon termination of the Employee's employment or service for any of the reasons set forth above, the Employee may automatically lose any rights to the unvested RSUs granted to him or her as of the date of the Employee's termination of employment, as described in the Plan and the Grant Agreement.

2.Severance Benefits outside a Change in Control. In the event of a Qualifying Termination (as defined below) prior to or more than 24 months following a Change in Control, and subject to the Executive Officer’s execution of a full release of claims substantially in a form satisfactory to HP, which in the event of a Change in Control shall be determined prior to the Change in Control (“Release of Claims”) within 45 days following termination of employment, and provided there has been no revocation or attempted revocation of the Release of Claims during the revocation period set forth in such Release of Claims (the date after the lapse of such revocation period without a revocation or attempted revocation, the “Release Effective Date”) and subject to the terms of this Plan, an Executive Officer will be eligible for severance benefits consisting of (a) a cash severance payment, (b) a pro-rata annual bonus payment, (c) pro-rata vesting on any outstanding awards under a long-term incentive plan (“LTIP”) (each, an “Award”), and (d) a health benefit stipend, all as more fully described below.

(c)
Long-Term Incentive Awards.

Each separately-granted Award held by an Executive Officer at the time of his or her Qualifying Termination that vests solely based on service will receive pro-rata vesting based on the number of full months worked during the vesting period applicable to such Award.

(ii)
Each separately-granted Award held by an Executive Officer at the time of his or her Qualifying Termination that vests solely based on performance will be deemed earned as of the end of the applicable performance period based on actual results as certified by the Committee, and subject to discretionary adjustments permitted under the applicable plan, if any, and will receive pro-rata vesting as described in the preceding sentence and application of the pro-rata vesting to the entire separately-granted Award, taking into account amounts, if any, previously vested.
(iii)

(v)
Pro-rata vesting is based on the number of full calendar months worked during the vesting period applicable to such Award, counting the month of grant as one full month (i.e., January 15-March 31 is three months).

2



(vi)
The provisions of this Paragraph 2(c) shall be deemed incorporated into the Award agreement for the applicable Award, except to the extent it would be deemed an amendment violating Section 409A (“Section 409A”) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) by accelerating payment or settlement of an Award, in which case the Award shall become vested as described above, but settlement shall not be accelerated, and settlement shall occur as initially provided in the Award agreement.

(d)
Health Benefit Stipend. The health benefit stipend shall consist of the payment in a lump sum of an amount equal to the excess of 18 times one months’ COBRA premiums for continued group medical coverage at the rate in effect on the date of termination of employment (for the Executive Officer and his or her eligible dependents covered by the applicable HP group medical plan immediately prior to termination of employment) over 18 times the monthly amount payable by an active employee in the same plan as of the date of the Executive Officer’s termination of employment and with the same level of coverage.
(e)
Earned But Unpaid Annual Bonus. In addition, the Executive Officer shall be entitled to any unpaid annual cash bonus in respect of a fiscal year that is complete as of the date of termination, which unpaid annual cash bonus shall be payable at the time contemplated by the applicable bonus plan but, subject to Paragraph 9, in no event later than the 75th day following the date of termination.

In the event of a Qualifying Termination, including a voluntary termination for Good Reason (each as defined below) within 24 months after a Change in Control (as defined below), and subject to his or her execution of a Release of Claims within 45 days following such termination of employment, and provided there occurs a Release Effective Date, and subject to the terms of this Plan, an Executive Officer will be eligible for severance benefits consisting of the following:
(a)
Severance Benefits. (i) a cash severance payment (in the amount described in Paragraph 2 above), (ii) a pro-rata annual bonus payment equal to the product of (x) the number of days worked by the Executive Officer in the fiscal year in which termination occurs through the date of termination, divided by 365, multiplied by (y) the Executive Officer’s target annual cash bonus opportunity under the applicable bonus plan for the year of termination (with such amount determined without regard to any reduction in compensation entitling the Executive Officer to terminate his or her employment for Good Reason), (iii) a health benefit stipend (in the amount described in Paragraph 2 above); and (iv) vesting in accordance with sub-paragraph 3(b) of any then-outstanding Award granted after the Change in Control and any Replacement Award as defined in Paragraph 4(b), and settlement thereof in accordance with Paragraph 8. For purposes of this Paragraph 3, any amounts determined by reference to Paragraph 2 above shall be determined without regard

3



to any reduction in compensation or seniority level entitling the Executive Officer to terminate his or her employment for Good Reason.
(b)
Vesting.
(i)
Any such Award or Replacement Award of Options or stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) not subject to Section 409A, to the extent subject to time-based vesting shall become 100% vested upon the Qualifying Termination and to the extent subject, in whole or in part to performance-based vesting, shall become 100% vested (with any portion of such award that is no longer subject to performance criteria as of the date of the Qualifying Termination to be earned based on actual levels of performance, and any portion of such award that remains subject to performance criteria as of the date of the Qualifying Termination to be deemed earned based on target levels of performance) and in either event shall remain exercisable for 1 year after the Qualifying Termination, but in no event after the stated expiration date of the Award or Replacement Award.
(ii)
Any such Award or Replacement Award (other than Options or SARs, and whether or not subject to Section 409A) (A) that vests and is settled solely based on the performance of service will become 100% vested upon the Qualifying Termination; and (B) that vests in whole or in part based on performance, shall become 100% vested (with any portion of such award that is no longer subject to performance criteria as of the date of the Qualifying Termination to be earned based on actual levels of performance, and any portion of such award that remains subject to performance criteria as of the date of the Qualifying Termination to be deemed earned based on target levels of performance).
(c)

4.Effect of a Change in Control on Outstanding Long-Term Incentive Awards. This Paragraph 4 provides for the treatment of long-term incentive awards that are outstanding on the date on which a Change in Control occurs. Treatment depends, in part, on whether the Award is a “Replaceable 409A Award” (which is an Award (A) that is subject to Section 409A and that was granted either prior to November 1, 2015 or on or after November 1, 2015 but prior to the grantee’s becoming an Executive Officer, or (B) that is subject to 409A and the applicable Change in Control is not described in Paragraph 6(d) (i.e., does not qualify under Section 409A)); a “409A Award” (which is an Award granted on or after November 1, 2015 that is subject to Section 409A and the Change in Control is described in Paragraph 6(d)); or a “Non-409A Award” (which is an Award that is not subject to Section 409A, regardless of when granted). In general, subject to the specific terms of this Paragraph 4, (x) Non-409A Awards will receive accelerated vesting and be settled on the occurrence of a Change in Control unless a Replacement Award is granted, in which case the terms of the Replacement Award will apply; (y) Replaceable 409A Awards will receive accelerated vesting and will be settled at the time and in the form provided under the terms of such Awards in effect prior to the Change in Control unless a Replacement Award is granted, in which case the terms of the Replacement Award will apply; and (z) 409A Awards will receive accelerated vesting and be settled on the occurrence of the Change in Control as described in Paragraph 4(c), and will not be eligible to be replaced by Replacement Awards.

4



(a)
Immediate Vesting of Long-Term Incentive Awards that Are Not Assumed or Replaced. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary under this Plan or any equity plan or LTIP maintained by HP, upon a Change in Control any then-outstanding Award held by an Executive Officer, other than a 409A Award, whether such Award is denominated and/or payable in equity securities of HP or denominated and/or payable in cash, shall be treated in accordance with sub-paragraph 4(a)(i), (ii), or (iii) below, except to the extent that another Award meeting the requirements of Paragraph 4(b) below (a “Replacement Award”) is provided to the Executive Officer to replace such Award (the “Replaced Award”). For avoidance of doubt, Replacement Awards shall not be treated as provided in this Paragraph 4(a).
Where no Replacement Award is granted or is to be granted, the following shall apply to an Award other than a 409A Award outstanding upon a Change in Control:
(i)
Outstanding Options and SARs.
A.
Not a Corporate Transaction or Corporate Transaction in which HP Inc. is the Survivor. Upon a Change in Control that does not involve a Corporate Transaction or that does involve a Corporate Transaction in which HP Inc. is the surviving corporation, an Executive Officer’s then-outstanding Options and SARs that are not vested shall immediately become fully vested (and, to the extent applicable, any portion of such award that is no longer subject to performance criteria as of the date of the Change in Control shall be earned based on actual levels of performance, and any portion of such award that remains subject to performance criteria as of the date of the Change in Control shall be deemed earned based on target levels of performance) and, if the Executive Officer does not have a Qualifying Termination, shall remain exercisable for the exercise period described in Paragraph 2(c)(iv) above.
B.
Corporate Transaction, HP Not the Survivor. Upon a Change in Control that involves a Corporate Transaction in which HP Inc. is not the surviving corporation, one of the following shall apply, as the Committee shall determine in its discretion; provided, however, that all Executive Officers shall be treated the same with respect to similar Awards:
(I)
an Executive Officer’s then-outstanding Options and SARs shall become fully vested and shall be exercisable for such limited period of time prior to the Corporate Transaction as is deemed fair and equitable by the Committee and shall terminate at the effective time of the Corporate Transaction. For outstanding Options and SARs as to which vesting depends upon the satisfaction of one or more performance conditions, any portion of such awards that is no longer subject to performance criteria as of the date of the Change in Control shall be earned based on actual levels of performance, and any portion of such award that remains subject to performance criteria as of the date of the Change in Control shall be deemed earned based on target levels of performance. The Committee shall provide written notice of the limited period of accelerated exercisability of Options and SARs to all affected Executive Officers. The exercise of any Option or SAR whose exercisability is

5



accelerated as provided in this Paragraph 4(a)(i)(B)(I) shall be conditioned upon the consummation of the Corporate Transaction and shall be effective only immediately before such consummation; or
(II)
an Executive Officer’s Options and SARs shall become fully vested (and in the case of Options and SARs subject in whole or in part to performance-based vesting, any portion of such awards that is no longer subject to performance criteria as of the date of the Change in Control shall be earned based on actual levels of performance, and any portion of such awards that remains subject to performance criteria as of the date of the Change in Control shall be deemed earned based on target levels of performance) and such Options and SARs shall be cancelled in exchange for the payment of an amount of cash (less normal withholding taxes) equal to the excess of (A) the value, as determined by the Committee, of the consideration (including cash) received by the holder of a share of common stock of HP Inc. (“Share”) as a result of the Change in Control (or if HP Inc. shareholders do not receive any consideration as a result of the Change in Control, the fair market value, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, of a Share on the day immediately prior to the Change in Control) over (B) the exercise price of such Option or the grant price of the SAR, multiplied by the number of Shares subject to such Award. No payment shall be made to an Executive Officer for any Option or SAR if the exercise price or grant price for such Option or SAR exceeds the value, as determined by the Committee, of the consideration (including cash) received by the holder of a Share as a result of Change in Control that involves a Corporate Transaction (or if HP Inc. shareholders do not receive any consideration as a result of the Change in Control, the fair market value, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, of a Share on the day immediately prior to the Change in Control).
(III)
Notwithstanding the foregoing, for any Options or SARs that are Replaceable 409A Awards, if the foregoing treatment would violate Section 409A, such Options and SARs shall become fully vested (with any portion of such awards that is no longer subject to performance criteria as of the date of the Change in Control deemed earned based on actual levels of performance, and any portion of such awards that remains subject to performance criteria as of the date of the Change in Control based on target levels of performance) and shall be converted, as of the date of the Change in Control, to a right to receive a cash payment on the required date of exercise, which payment shall be made on the required date of exercise under the terms of such Award as in effect prior to the Change in Control, equal to the amount described in Paragraph 4(a)(i)(B)(II) above.
(ii)
Outstanding Awards (other than Options and SARs) Subject Solely to Service-Based Vesting. Upon a Change in Control, an Executive Officer’s then-

6



outstanding Awards (other than Options and SARs) that are not vested and as to which vesting depends solely on the satisfaction of a service obligation by the Executive Officer (“Service-based Awards”) shall become fully vested and shall be settled in cash, Shares or a combination thereof, as determined by the Committee, within thirty (30) days following such Change in Control; provided that in the case of a Replaceable 409A Award, settlement shall be made at the time and in the form provided under the terms of such Award in effect prior to the Change in Control.
(iii)
Outstanding Awards (other than Options and SARs) Subject to Performance-Based Vesting. Upon a Change in Control, an Executive Officer’s then-outstanding Awards (other than Options and SARs) that are not vested and as to which vesting depends upon the satisfaction of one or more performance conditions (“Performance-based Awards”) shall become fully vested (with any portion of such awards that is no longer subject to performance criteria as of the date of the Change in Control earned based on actual levels of performance, and any portion of such awards that remains subject to performance criteria as of the date of the Change in Control deemed earned based on target levels of performance) and shall be settled in cash, Shares or a combination thereof, as determined by the Committee, within thirty (30) days following such Change in Control; provided that in the case of a Replaceable 409A Award, settlement shall be made at the time and in the form provided under the terms of such Award in effect prior to the Change in Control.
(b)
Definition of Replacement Award. An Award shall meet the conditions of this Paragraph 4(b) (and hence qualify as a Replacement Award) if: (i) it is of the same type of instrument as the Replaced Award; (ii) it has an intrinsic value at least equal to the value of the Replaced Award; (iii) it relates to publicly traded equity securities of HP Inc. or its successor in the Change in Control or another entity that is affiliated with HP Inc. or its successor following the Change in Control; (iv) its terms and conditions comply with applicable regulations under Section 409A regarding substitutions and assumptions by reason of a corporate transaction; and (v) its other terms and conditions are not less favorable to the holder of the Award than the terms and conditions of the Replaced Award (including the provisions that would apply in the event of a subsequent Change in Control). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Replacement Award may take the form of a continuation or assumption of the Replaced Award if the requirements of the preceding sentence are satisfied. The determination of whether the conditions of this Paragraph 4(b) are satisfied shall be made by the Committee, as constituted immediately before the Change in Control, in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may determine the value of Awards and Replacement Awards that are stock options by reference to either their intrinsic value or their fair value.
(c)
Treatment of 409A Awards. This Paragraph 4(c) shall apply to 409A Awards (i.e., Awards subject to Section 409A when the applicable Change in Control is defined in Paragraph 6(d)). 409A Awards shall be treated, in the case of Options or SARs, as described in Paragraph 4(a)(i)(B)(I) or (II) (regardless of whether HP Inc. is the survivor). In the case of 409A Awards other than Options or SARs, such 409A Awards shall become fully vested (with any portion of such awards that is no longer subject to performance criteria as of the date of the Change in Control earned based on actual levels of performance, and any

7



portion of such awards that remains subject to performance criteria as of the date of the Change in Control deemed earned based on target levels of performance) and shall be settled in cash, Shares or a combination thereof, as determined by the Committee, within thirty (30) days following the Change in Control. Awards subject to this Paragraph 4(c) shall not be eligible to be replaced by Replacement Awards or to be continued or assumed in connection with the Change in Control.
5.Qualifying Termination and Good Reason.
(a)
An Executive Officer will be deemed to have incurred a Qualifying Termination for purposes of this plan if he or she is involuntarily terminated, as determined by the Committee, other than for Cause while holding Executive Officer status or within 90 days after having held Executive Officer status. For purposes of this Plan, the term “Cause” shall mean an Executive Officer’s:
(i)
Conviction of, or plea of guilty or nolo contendere to, a felony under federal law or the law of the state in which such action occurred;
(ii)
Willful and deliberate failure in the performance of his or her duties in any material respect;
(iii)
Willful misconduct that results in material harm to HP; or
(iv)
Material violation of HP’s ethics and compliance program, code of conduct or other material policy of HP.
For purposes of this provision, no act or failure to act, on the part of an Executive Officer, shall be considered “willful” unless it is done, or omitted to be done, by the Executive Officer in bad faith or without reasonable belief that the Executive Officer’s action or omission was in the best interests of HP. Any act, or failure to act, based upon authority given pursuant to a resolution duly adopted by the Board or, for Executive Officers other than the Chief Executive Officer, upon the instructions of the Chief Executive Officer or based upon the advice of counsel for HP shall be conclusively presumed to be done, or omitted to be done, by the Executive Officer in good faith and in the best interests of HP. An Executive Officer shall not be deemed to be discharged for Cause unless and until there is delivered to the Executive Officer a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of not less than seventy-five percent (75%) of the independent members of the Board at a meeting called and duly held for such purpose (after reasonable notice is provided to the Executive Officer and the Executive Officer is given an opportunity, together with counsel for the Executive Officer, to be heard before the Board), finding in good faith that the Executive Officer is guilty of the conduct set forth above and specifying the particulars thereof in detail. In the event of a dispute as to whether Cause exists, any finding of Cause shall be subject to de novo review by a court of competent jurisdiction.
(b)
For purposes of this plan, “Qualifying Termination” shall also include an Executive Officer’s voluntary termination of employment for “Good Reason” provided such termination occurs within 24 months after a Change in Control, where “Good Reason” means:

8



(i)
a material reduction in the Executive Officer’s position, authority, duties or responsibilities relative to such position, authority, duties or responsibilities immediately prior to the Change in Control;
(ii)
a material reduction in the position, authority, duties or responsibilities of the person to whom the Executive Officer is required to report relative to the position, authority, duties or responsibilities of the person to whom the Executive Officer is required to report immediately prior to the Change in Control (including, if applicable, a requirement that the Executive Officer report to an officer or employee instead of reporting to the Board);
(iii)
a material reduction in the Executive Officer’s base salary or target bonus opportunity as in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control;
(iv)
a material reduction in the Executive Officer’s target total direct compensation opportunity as in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control;
(v)
receipt of notice by the Executive Officer with regard to the mandatory relocation (other than by mutual agreement) of the office at which the Executive Officer is to perform the majority of his or her duties following the Change in Control to a location more than 50 miles from the location at which the Executive Officer performed such duties prior to the Change in Control; or
(vi)
the failure at any time of a successor to HP explicitly to assume and agree to be bound by this Plan.
(c)
Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, no act, omission or event shall constitute grounds for a voluntary termination due to “Good Reason” unless:
(i)
The Executive Officer provides HP thirty (30) day advance written notice of his or her intent to termination employment for Good Reason which notice must describe the claimed act, omission or event giving rise to Good Reason (“Notice of Termination”); and
(ii)
The Notice of Termination is given within ninety (90) days of Executive Officer’s first actual knowledge of such act, omission or event;
(iii)
HP fails to cure such act, omission or event within the thirty (30) day period after receiving the Notice of Termination; and
(iv)
The Executive Officer’s termination of employment for Good Reason actually occurs at the end of such 30-day cure period if the Good Reason is not cured.
In the event of a dispute as to whether a particular act, omission or event constitutes grounds for a voluntary termination due to “Good Reason” shall be subject to de novo review by a court of competent jurisdiction.
6.
Change in Control. A “Change in Control” means the first to occur of any of the following:
(a)
A direct or indirect acquisition by an individual, entity or group (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act) (a “Person”) of beneficial ownership of

9



shares which, together with other direct or indirect acquisitions or beneficial ownership by such Person, results in aggregate beneficial ownership by such Person of thirty percent (30%) or more of either (1) the then outstanding shares of common stock (the “Outstanding HP Common Stock”) of HP Inc., or (2) the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of HP Inc. (the “Outstanding HP Voting Securities”); excluding, however, the following: (i) any acquisition directly from HP Inc., other than an acquisition by virtue of the exercise of a conversion privilege unless the security being so converted was itself acquired directly from HP Inc., (ii) any acquisition by HP Inc. or a wholly owned subsidiary of HP Inc., (iii) any acquisition by any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by HP Inc. or any entity controlled by HP Inc., or (iv) any acquisition by any entity pursuant to a transaction which complies with Paragraphs 6 (c)(i), (ii) and (iii); or
(b)
A change in the composition of the Board over a 12-month period such that the individuals who, as of the date of the beginning of the period (the “Effective Incumbency Date”), constitute the Board (the “Incumbent Board”) cease for any reason to constitute a majority of the Board; provided, however, that any individual who becomes a member of the Board subsequent to the Effective Incumbency Date, whose election, or nomination for election by HP Inc.’s stockholders, was approved by a vote of a majority of those individuals then comprising the Incumbent Board shall be considered as though such individual were a member of the Incumbent Board; but, provided further, that any such individual whose initial assumption of office occurs as a result of either an actual or threatened election contest with respect to the election or removal of directors or other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a Person other than the Board shall not be so considered as a member of the Incumbent Board; or
(c)
The consummation of a Corporate Transaction; excluding, however, such a Corporate Transaction pursuant to which (i) all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who are the beneficial owners, respectively, of the Outstanding HP Common Stock and Outstanding HP Voting Securities immediately prior to such Corporate Transaction will beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than sixty percent (60%) of, respectively, the outstanding shares of common stock, and the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of the surviving or acquiring entity resulting from such Corporate Transaction or a direct or indirect parent entity of the surviving or acquiring entity (including, without limitation, an entity which as a result of such transaction owns HP or all or substantially all of HP’s assets either directly or through one or more subsidiaries) in substantially the same proportions (as compared to each other) as their ownership, immediately prior to such Corporate Transaction, of the Outstanding HP Common Stock and Outstanding HP Voting Securities, as the case may be, (ii) no Person (other than HP, any wholly owned subsidiary, any employee benefit plan (or related trust)) sponsored or maintained by HP, any entity controlled by HP, such surviving or acquiring entity resulting from such Corporate Transaction or any entity controlled by such surviving or acquiring entity or a direct or indirect parent entity of the surviving or acquiring entity that, after giving effect to the Corporate Transaction, beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 100% of the outstanding voting securities of the surviving or acquiring entity) will beneficially own, directly or indirectly, thirty percent (30%) or more of, respectively, the outstanding shares of common stock (or comparable equity interests) of the entity resulting from such Corporate Transaction or the combined voting power of the outstanding voting securities of such entity except to the extent that such ownership existed

10



prior to the Corporate Transaction and (iii) individuals who were members of the Incumbent Board will constitute a majority of the members of the board of directors (or similar governing body) of the surviving or acquiring entity resulting from such Corporate Transaction or a direct or indirect parent entity of the surviving or acquiring entity. “Corporate Transaction” means (w) a dissolution or liquidation of HP, (x) a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of HP, (y) a merger or consolidation of HP with or into any other corporation, regardless of whether HP Inc. is the surviving corporation, or (z) a statutory share exchange involving capital stock of HP Inc.
(d)
A Change in Control is described in this Paragraph 6(d) only if it would also constitute a “change in ownership” of HP, a “change in effective control” of HP, or a “change in ownership of a substantial portion of assets” of HP under Section 409A.
7.Form and Time of Payment for Severance Benefits Outside a Change in Control. Subject to the timely execution of the required Release of Claims, and the occurrence of the Release Effective Date, severance benefits provided under Paragraph 2 shall be paid in accordance with the following provisions:
(a)
Cash severance benefits under Paragraph 2(a) shall be paid to an Executive Officer in installments as follows: 25% of such cash severance benefits shall be paid no later than the 75th day following the date of an Executive Officer’s Qualifying Termination, and then 25% of such cash severance benefit on the 6th, 12th and 18th month anniversary of the date of such Qualifying Termination.
(b)
The pro-rata annual bonus under Paragraph 2(b) shall be paid at the time such bonuses are otherwise paid to participants in the applicable bonus plan; provided that if the Release Effective Date is after the date that the bonus would otherwise have been paid, such payment shall be made as soon as administratively practicable after the Release Effective Date, but in no event later than March 15 of the year following the year in which the bonus performance period ended.
(c)
The health benefit stipend under Paragraph 2(d) shall be paid to an Executive Officer on the same date the Executive Officer is paid the first installment of his or her cash severance under Paragraph (a) above.
(d)
Any Award entitled to pro rata vesting that would have otherwise become vested and been settled solely based on the performance of service will be settled, or in the case of an Award that is an option or SAR, accelerated vesting will occur, no later than the 75th day following the date of an Executive Officer’s Qualifying Termination.
(e)
Any Award entitled to pro rata vesting that would otherwise have become vested and been settled, in whole or in part, based on performance for which the applicable performance period has not ended on or prior to the Executive Officer’s Qualifying Termination will be settled (or in the case of an Award of options or SAR, accelerated vesting will occur) at the time such Award is otherwise settled for (or vests) for other holders of such Awards; provided that if the Release Effective Date is after the date that the Award would otherwise have been settled, such settlement or vesting shall occur no later than the 75th day following the date of the Release Effective Date.

11



All payments and benefits under this plan shall be subject to, and made net of, applicable deductions and withholdings. Any payments and benefits under this plan shall be reduced by any severance benefit payable to the Executive Officer under any other HP plan, program or agreement.
All payments and benefits are subject to the Executive Officer’s continuing compliance with HP Agreement Regarding Confidential Information and Proprietary Developments (as reflected in the Release of Claims), and to HP’s policies on recoupment, as in effect from time to time.
8.Form and Time of Payment for Severance Benefits in the event of a Change in Control. Subject to the timely execution of the required Release of Claims, and the occurrence of the Release Effective Date, severance benefits provided under Paragraph 3 shall be paid in accordance with the following provisions:
(a)
Cash severance benefits, the pro-rata annual bonus, and the health benefit stipend under Paragraph 3(a) shall be paid to the Executive Officer in a lump sum no later than the 75th day following the Qualifying Termination.
(b)
Any Award, including a Replacement Award (to the extent vested under Paragraph 3) shall be settled, or in the case of an option or SAR, accelerated vesting will occur, no later than the 75th day following the date of an Executive Officer’s Qualifying Termination.
All payments and benefits under this plan shall be subject to, and made net of, applicable deductions and withholdings. Any payments and benefits under this plan shall be reduced by any severance benefit payable to the Executive Officer under any other HP plan, program or agreement.
All payments and benefits are subject to the Executive Officer’s continuing compliance with HP Agreement Regarding Confidential Information and Proprietary Developments (as reflected in the Release of Claims), and, subject to Paragraph 12, to HP’s policies on recoupment, as in effect from time to time.
9.Section 409A Provisions. This Plan shall be interpreted and administered in compliance with Section 409A, and it is intended that payments and benefits made or provided under this Plan shall not result in penalty taxes or accelerated taxation pursuant to Section 409A.
The term “termination of employment,” “termination,” “separation from service” and similar terms shall mean a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A.
Any amounts payable solely on account of an “involuntary” separation from service within the meaning of Section 409A shall be, to the maximum extent possible, excludible from the requirements of Section 409A, either as involuntary separation pay or as short-term deferral amounts. For purposes of Section 409A, each payment of compensation under the plan shall be treated as a separate payment of compensation. With respect to any payment or benefit that constitutes nonqualified deferred compensation within the meaning of Section 409A, a Change in Control shall not constitute a settlement or distribution event with respect to such payment or benefit, or an event that otherwise changes the timing of payment or settlement, unless the Change in Control is a Change in Control as described in Paragraph 6(d), it being understood that this sentence shall impose no limitation on the amount of a payment or benefit payable in connection with a Change in Control.
Any reimbursements or in-kind benefits provided under the plan shall be made or provided in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A, including, where applicable, the requirement that (a) any reimbursement is for expenses incurred during the period of time specified in the Agreement, (b) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided, during a calendar year may

12



not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other calendar year, (c) the reimbursement of an eligible expense will be made no later than the last day of the calendar year following the year in which the expense is incurred, and (d) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.
If payment of any amount of nonqualified deferred compensation is triggered by a separation from service that occurs while the Executive Officer is a specified employee (as such term is defined in Section 409A), and if such amount is scheduled to be paid within six months after such separation from service, the amount shall accrue without interest and shall be paid the first business day after the end of such six-month period, or, if earlier, within 15 days after the appointment of the personal representative or executor of the Executive Officer’s estate following the Executive Officer’s death.
If the maximum period within which the Executive Officer must sign and not revoke the Release of Claims would begin in one calendar year and expire in the following calendar year, then any payments contingent on the occurrence of the Release Effective Date shall be made in such following calendar year (regardless of the year of execution of such release) if payment in such following calendar year is required in order to comply with Section 409A. If the Release Effective Date has not occurred by the 53rd day following termination of employment, provided that HP has complied with its obligations hereunder to timely deliver the Release of Claims, the Executive Officer will not be entitled to any amounts or accelerated vesting that are subject to the timely execution of the Release of Claims and the occurrence of the Release Effective Date.
For avoidance of doubt, if an Executive Officer’s Award or Replacement Award is subject to Section 409A, and the vesting or settlement acceleration provisions of the Plan would cause the Award to be subject to additional tax and interest penalties under Section 409A (including but not limited to the Award’s being deemed amended by the terms of the Plan after it was granted), then the Committee shall not settle such Award (or Replacement Award) on an accelerated basis.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, HP does not make any guarantees or other assurances of any kind with respect to the tax consequences or treatment of any amounts paid or payable to him under this plan.
10.Effect on Other Benefits; At-Will Status. Payments under this plan shall not be considered compensation for purposes of any other compensation or benefit plan, program, or agreement of HP or its affiliates. All other compensation and benefit plans and programs shall be governed by the applicable HP plan or agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Plan shall not limit an Executive Officer’s entitlement to any accrued but unpaid annual base salary or any other entitlements that the Executive Officer may have under any other plan, program, policy or practice or contract or agreement of HP or its affiliates, which shall remain payable in accordance with the terms thereof. This plan does not create an employment relationship for any fixed term.
11.Effective Date; Administration of Plan. The Plan was originally effective October 31, 2003, was amended and restated effective for terminations occurring after November 1, 2011, was further amended and restated effective for terminations occurring after November 1, 2015, and is further amended and restated as set forth herein, effective for terminations occurring after February 28, 2020. The Plan may be amended or terminated at any time by the Committee or the Board, in their discretion; provided that (a) no right to payments or benefits in pay status may be cut back without the consent of the affected Executive Officer, and (b) in the event of a Change in Control, no amendment that would have the effect of reducing payments or benefits hereunder or that would otherwise adversely affect the rights of any Executive Officer hereunder (including, without limitation, any adverse amendment to the Release of Claims) may take effect prior to the second anniversary of a Change in Control.

13



Subject to the limitations set forth in this Paragraph 11 and any provisions of this Plan to the contrary regarding a finding of Cause or the existence of Good Reason, the Committee shall have full authority, in its discretion to interpret and apply the provisions of the plan, to establish rules and procedures applicable to the Plan, to resolve any ambiguity, correct any defect or supply any omission; to make such adjustments or modifications as the Committee deems appropriate for Executive Officers who are working outside the United States as are advisable to fulfill the purposes of the plan or to comply with applicable local law and to take any other action it deems necessary or advisable for administration of the Plan.
This Plan is intended to be consistent with the Board’s policy regarding severance agreements for senior executives, as adopted by resolutions dated July 18, 2003 (the “Resolutions”), and the benefits provided for hereunder, exclusive of “permitted benefits” (as defined in the Resolutions), do not exceed 2.99 times the sum of any eligible executive’s base salary plus bonus as in effect immediately prior to separation from employment. The Committee may take such action as is necessary to implement and administer this plan consistent with such intent of the Board.
With respect to any Awards that were granted prior to November 2, 2017, that remain outstanding as of February 28, 2020 and that are intended to qualify for the performance-based compensation exception to Section 162(m) of the Code, such Awards shall remain subject to the terms of the HP Inc. Severance and Long-Term Incentive Change in Control Plan for Executive Officers as amended and restated effective November 1, 2015 and shall not be amended by the terms of this Plan.
12.Clawback. Any amounts payable under the Plan are subject to any policy providing for clawback, recoupment or recovery of amounts that were paid to an Executive Officer as established from time to time by the Committee and adopted prior to a Change in Control or required by applicable law. The HP shall make any determination for clawback, recoupment or recovery in its sole discretion and in accordance with any such policy and applicable law or regulation.
13.Best Net. It is the object of this Paragraph 13 to provide for the maximum after-tax income to each Executive Officer with respect to any payment or distribution to or for the benefit of the Executive Officer, whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the Plan or any other plan, arrangement or agreement, that would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code or any similar federal, state or local tax that may hereafter be imposed (a “Payment”) (Section 4999 of the Code or any similar federal, state or local tax are collectively referred to as the “Excise Tax”). Accordingly, before any Payments are made under this Plan, a determination will be made as to which of two alternatives will maximize such Executive Officer’s after-tax proceeds, and HP must notify the Executive Officer in writing of such determination. The first alternative is the payment in full of all Payments potentially subject to the Excise Tax. The second alternative is the payment of only a part of the Executive Officer’s Payments so that the Executive Officer receives the largest payment and benefits possible without causing the Excise Tax to be payable by the Executive Officer. This second alternative is referred to in this Paragraph 13 as “Limited Payment”. The Executive Officer’s Payments shall be paid only to the extent permitted under the alternative determined to maximize the Executive Officer’s after-tax proceeds, and the Executive Officer shall have no rights to any greater payments on his or her Payments. If Limited Payment applies, Payments shall be reduced in a manner that would not result in the Executive Officer incurring an additional tax under Section 409A.
(a)
Accordingly, Payments not constituting nonqualified deferred compensation under Section 409A shall be reduced first, in this order but only to the extent that doing so avoids the Excise Tax (e.g., accelerated vesting or payment provisions in an Award will be ignored to the extent that such provisions would trigger the Excise Tax):

14



(i)
Payment of the severance amounts under Paragraph 3 hereof to the extent such payments do not constitute deferred compensation under Section 409A.
(ii)
Performance-based Awards, but excluding Performance-based Awards subject to Section 409A.
(iii)
Service-based Awards, but excluding Service-based Awards subject to Section 409A.
(iv)
Awards of Options and SARs under a HP LTIP.
(b)
Then, if the foregoing reductions are insufficient, Payments constituting deferred compensation under Section 409A shall be reduced, in this order:
(i)
Payment of the severance amounts under Paragraph 3 hereof to the extent such payments constitute deferred compensation under Section 409A.
(ii)
Performance-based Awards subject to Section 409A.
(iii)
Service-based Awards subject to Section 409A.
In the event of conflict between the order of reduction under this Plan and the order provided by any other HP document governing a Payment, then the order under this Plan shall control.
All determinations required to be made under this Paragraph 13 shall be made by HP’s external auditor (the “Accounting Firm”) which shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to HP and the Executive Officer within ten (10) business days of the termination of employment giving rise to benefits under the Plan, or such earlier time as is requested by HP. All fees, costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, the costs of retaining experts) of the Accounting Firm shall be borne by HP. In the event the Accounting Firm determines that the Payments shall be reduced, it shall furnish the Executive Officer with a written opinion to such effect. The determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding upon HP and the Executive Officer.
14.Advancement of Legal Fees. If any contest or dispute shall arise under this Plan involving termination of an Executive Officer’s employment with HP within 24 months following a Change in Control, HP shall reimburse all legal fees and expenses that the Executive Officer may reasonably incur as a result of any such action within 30 days following the Executive’s Officer’s submission of a request for reimbursement; provided that any legal fees incurred in connection with a claim brought by an Executive Officer shall be reimbursed only if the claim is brought in good faith.

APPENDIX A

Vesting Examples for Specific Awards

Performance-Contingent Stock Options (PCSOs) With 3-Part Service Vesting
(Generally granted on or after September 18, 2013)

Assumptions regarding Award design:
The vesting terms of the PCSO are as follows:
One-third of the PCSO will vest, if at all, on the later to occur of the first anniversary of the grant date, with continued service, or the satisfaction of a 20% share price increase within four years of the grant date, with continued service.
One-third of the PCSO will vest, if at all, on the later to occur of the second anniversary of the grant date, with continued service, or the satisfaction of a 20% share price increase within four years of the grant date, with continued service.
The remaining one-third of the PCSO will vest, if at all, on the later to occur of the third anniversary of the grant date, with continued service, or the satisfaction of a 40% share price increase within four years of the grant date, with continued service.
Upon termination of the Executive Officer’s employment prior to the PCSOs’ becoming 100% vested, the Executive Officer is entitled to “pro rata vesting” of the PCSO Award.
Assume the Executive Officer is granted 12,000 PCSOs.
The rules of proration are as follows:
1.
If, upon termination of the Executive Officer’s employment, neither share price component has been satisfied, none of the Stock Options vest, regardless of what portion of the service component has been satisfied.
2.Assume both the 20% and 40% price share components are satisfied prior to the Executive Officer’s termination of employment. Assume the Executive Officer has a Qualifying Termination prior to the third anniversary of the grant date. The PCSOs will vest pro rata based on number of full months elapsed from the grant date to the date of termination of employment, divided by the number of months in the service period (in this example 36 months) taking into account the number of PCSOs previously vested, if any, as illustrated below:


16




Pro-ration of PCSOs With 3-Part Service Vesting
Both 20% and 40% Share Price Components Satisfied
Termination of Employment
Number of Option Shares Vested
6 months after the Grant Date
2,000 PCSOs become vested: 6/36 x 12,000 = 2,000.
12 months after the Grant Date
Zero (0) additional PCSOs become vested under the pro ration rules because the 4,000 PCSOs eligible to vest after 1 year if the 20% share price component was satisfied automatically became vested on the first anniversary of the Grant Date.
15 months after the Grant Date
1,000 additional PCSOs become vested: 15/36 x 12,000 = 5,000 minus the 4,000 that vested on the first anniversary of the Grant Date.
18 months after the Grant Date
2,000 additional PCSOs become vested: 18/36 x 12,000 = 6,000 minus the 4,000 that vested on the first anniversary of the grant date
24 months after the Grant Date
Zero (0) additional PCSOs become vested because 24/36 x 12,000 = 8,000 minus the 8,000 that vested on the first and second anniversaries grant date (4,000 each anniversary).
30 months after the Grant Date
2,000 additional PCSOs become vested: 30/36 x 12,000 = 10,000 minus the 8,000 that vested on the first and second anniversaries of the grant date.

3.Assume the 20% share price component is satisfied 15 months after the grant date. The 40% share price component has not been satisfied when the Executive Officer terminates employment. Upon termination of the Executive Officer’s employment, the PCSOs shall vest pro rata based on number of full months elapsed from the grant date to the date of termination of employment (not to exceed 36), divided by the number of months in the service period (in this example 36 months) taking into account the number of PCSOs previously vested, if any, as illustrated below:

1,000 additional PCSOs become vested: 15/36 x 12,000 = 5,000 minus the 4,000 that vested upon the 20% share price component being met.
18 months after the Grant Date
2,000 additional PCSOs become vested: 18/36 x 12,000 = 6,000 minus the 4,000 already vested.
24 months after the Grant Date
Zero (0) additional PCSOs become vested: All of the 8,000 PCSOs eligible to vest on satisfaction of the 20% share price component became vested on the second anniversary of the grant date.

Zero (0) additional PCSOs become vested: All of the 8,000 PCSOs eligible to vest became vested on the second anniversary of the grant date.

Performance-Contingent Stock Options (PCSOs) With 3-Part Service Vesting and
7-year TSR-Contingent Vesting
(Generally granted on or after December 11, 2013)
Assumptions regarding Award design:
The vesting terms of the PCSO are as follows:

17



One-third of the PCSO will vest on the later to occur of the first anniversary of the grant date, with continued service, or the satisfaction of a 10% share price increase within two years after the grant date, with continued service. (“10% Tranche”)
One-third of the PCSO will vest on the later to occur of the second anniversary of the grant date, with continued service, or the satisfaction of a 20% share price increase within three years after the grant date, with continued service. (“20% Tranche”)
The remaining one-third of the PCSO will vest on the later to occur of the third anniversary of the grant date, with continued service, or the satisfaction of a 30% share price increase within four years of the grant date, with continued service. (“30% Tranche”)
Regardless of whether any of the share-price increases are timely satisfied, the PCSO will vest in full on the 7th anniversary of the grant date, with continued service, if HP’s 7-year TSR, measured from the first day of the year in which the grant was made to the 7th anniversary of such first day, meets or exceeds the 55th percentile of the S&P 500 TSR over the same period.
Upon a Qualifying Termination of the Executive Officer’s employment prior to the PCSOs becoming 100% vested, the Executive Officer is entitled to “pro rata vesting” of the PCSO Award. The PCSO will be forfeited to the extent the share price performance has not been met. There will be no pro ration based solely on a 7-year service period. The proration, if any, will be in the proportion the number of months of service in the service period (not to exceed 36) bears to 36 months.
EXAMPLES:
Assume the Executive Officer is granted 12,000 PCSOs.
The rules of proration are as follows:
1.No price components satisfied. If, upon termination of the Executive Officer’s employment, none of the share price components has been satisfied, none of the PCSOs vest, regardless of what portion of the performance period has been served.
2.All price components satisfied. Assume each of the 10%, 20% and 30% price components have been satisfied prior to the Executive Officer’s Qualifying Termination. Assume the Executive Officer has a Qualifying Termination prior to the fourth anniversary of the grant date. The PCSOs will vest pro rata based on the number of full months elapsed from the grant date to the date of the Qualifying Termination (not to exceed 36), divided by 36 months, taking into account the number of PCSOs previously vested, if any, as illustrated below:

6 months after the Grant Date
2,000 PCSOs become vested: 6/36 x 12,000 shares = 2,000.
12 months after the Grant Date
Zero (0) additional PCSOs become vested under the proration rules. 4,000 PCSOs automatically become vested on the first anniversary of the grant date because the 10% Tranche service and share price components were met.
18 months after the Grant Date
2,000 additional PCSOs become vested: 18/36 x 12,000 shares = 6,000 minus the 4,000 that vested on the first anniversary of the grant date.
21 months after the Grant Date
3,000 additional PCSOs become vested: 21/36 x 12,000 = 7,000, minus the 4,000 that vested on the first anniversary of the grant date.
24 months after the Grant Date
Zero (0) additional PCSOs become vested under the proration rules. 4,000 PCSOs automatically become vested on the second anniversary of the grant date because the 20% service and share price components were met. (4,000 shares already vested on the first anniversary of the grant date.)
30 months after the Grant Date
2,000 additional PCSOs become vested: 30/36 x 12,000 = 10,000 minus the 8,000 that vested on the first and second anniversaries of the grant date. (4,000 on each anniversary.)

3.Some but not all share price components satisfied. Assume the 10% share price component is satisfied 12 months after the grant date and the 20% share price component is satisfied 20 months after the grant date. The 30% share price component has not been satisfied when the Executive Officer’s Qualifying Termination occurs. Upon the Qualifying Termination, the PCSOs shall vest pro rata (not more than 100%) based on number of full months elapsed from the grant date to the date of the Qualifying Termination (not to exceed 36), divided by 36 months, taking into account the number of PCSOs previously vested, if any, as illustrated below:

Performance-Adjusted RSUs (PARSUs) With 3-Part Service Vesting
(Generally granted on or after December 11, 2013)
Assumptions regarding Award design:
The vesting terms of the PARSU Award are as follows:

19



A portion of Segment 1 of the PARSUs will vest when performance for that segment is certified at the end of the 2-year period, with continued service. The portion becoming vested will depend on performance against 2-year ROIC and 2-year TSR targets, and will range from 0% to 200% of the target number of Segment 1 PARSUs.
A portion of Segment 2 of the PARSUs will vest when performance for that segment is certified at the end of the 3-year period, with continued service. The portion becoming vested will depend on performance against 3-year ROIC and 3-year TSR targets, and will range from 0% to 200% of the target number of Segment 2 PARSUs.
Upon the Executive Officer’s Qualifying Termination prior to the PARSUs becoming 100% vested, the Executive Officer is entitled to “pro rata vesting” of the PARSU Award. In this case, the service period and the performance period for each Segment are the same, as illustrated below:
Applicable Segment
Performance Period
Service Period
Segment 1
2 years
2 years
Segment 2
3 years
3 years

The rules of proration are as follows:
1.For each Segment, if the Executive Officer’s termination of employment occurs prior to the end of the applicable performance period, the PARSU will vest pro rata at the end of the relevant segment, based on the number of full months elapsed from the beginning of the relevant segment to the date of the Qualifying Termination, divided by the number of months in the relevant segment.
These rules can be illustrated as follows:
Pro-ration of PARSUs With 2-Segment Performance/Service Periods
Performance-Adjusted RSUs
Termination of Employment
Number of PARSUs Vested
6 months after the beginning of the performance period
Segment 1: 25% of the PARSUs that would have been earned become vested (6/24) at the end of the 2-year performance period.
Segment 2: 16.66% of the PARSUs that would have been earned become vested (6/36) at the end of the 3-year performance period.
12 months after the beginning of the performance period
Segment 1: 50% of the PARSUs that would have been earned become vested (12/24) at the end of the 2-year performance period.
Segment 2: 33.33% of the PARSUs that would have been earned become vested (12/36) at the end of the 3-year performance period.
24 months after the beginning of the performance period
Segment 1: Zero (0) additional PARSUs become vested because the Segment 1 PARSUs earned became vested automatically at the end of the 2-year performance period.
Segment 2: 66.67% of the PARSUs that would have been earned become vested (24/36) at the end of the 3-year performance period.
30 months after the beginning of the performance period
Segment 1: Zero (0) additional PARSUs become vested because the Segment 1 PARSUs earned became vested automatically at the end of the 2-year performance period.

Performance-Contingent Stock Options (PCSOs) With 3-Part Service Vesting
(Generally granted on or after December 10, 2014)

Assumptions regarding Award design:
The vesting terms of the PCSO are as follows:
One-third of the PCSO will vest on the later to occur of the first anniversary of the grant date, with continued service, or the satisfaction of a 10% share price increase within two years after the grant date, with continued service. (“10% Tranche”)
One-third of the PCSO will vest on the later to occur of the second anniversary of the grant date, with continued service, or the satisfaction of a 20% share price increase within three years after the grant date, with continued service. (“20% Tranche”)
The remaining one-third of the PCSO will vest on the later to occur of the third anniversary of the grant date, with continued service, or the satisfaction of a 30% share price increase within four years of the grant date, with continued service. (“30% Tranche”)
Upon a Qualifying Termination of the Executive Officer’s employment prior to the PCSOs becoming 100% vested, the Executive Officer is entitled to “pro rata vesting” of the PCSO Award; provided the applicable share-price component has been satisfied prior to the Qualifying Termination. The PCSO will be forfeited to the extent the share price performance has not been met. The proration, if any, will be in the proportion the number of months of service in the service period (not to exceed 36) bears to 36 months.
EXAMPLES:
Assume the Executive Officer is granted 12,000 PCSOs.
The rules of proration are as follows:
1.No price components satisfied. If, upon termination of the Executive Officer’s employment, none of the share price components has been satisfied, none of the PCSOs vest, regardless of what portion of the performance period has been served.
2.All price components satisfied. Assume each of the 10%, 20% and 30% price components have been satisfied prior to the Executive Officer’s Qualifying Termination. Assume the Executive Officer has a Qualifying Termination prior to the fourth anniversary of the grant date. The PCSOs will vest pro rata based on the number of full months elapsed from the grant date (not to exceed 36) to the date of the Qualifying Termination, divided by 36 months, taking into account the number of PCSOs previously vested, if any, as illustrated below:

Performance-Adjusted RSUs (PARSUs) With 2-Part Service Vesting
(Generally granted on or after December 7, 2016)

Assumptions regarding Award design:
The vesting terms of the PARSU Award are as follows:
A portion of Segment 1 of the PARSUs will vest when performance for that segment is certified at the end of the 2-year period, with continued service. The portion becoming vested will depend on performance against Year 1 EPS and 2-year TSR targets, and will range from 0% to 200% of the target number of Segment 1 PARSUs.
A portion of Segment 2 of the PARSUs will vest when performance for that segment is certified at the end of the 3-year period, with continued service. The portion becoming vested will depend on performance against Years 2 and 3 EPS and 3-year TSR targets, and will range from 0% to 200% of the target number of Segment 2 PARSUs.
Upon the Executive Officer’s Qualifying Termination prior to the PARSUs becoming 100% vested, the Executive Officer is entitled to “pro rata vesting” of the PARSU Award. In this case, the service period and the performance period for each Segment are the same, as illustrated below:

Applicable Segment

The rules of proration are as follows:
1.     For each Segment, if the Executive Officer’s termination of employment occurs prior to the end of the applicable performance period, the PARSU will vest pro rata at the end of the relevant segment, based on the number of full months elapsed from the beginning of the relevant performance period to the date of the Qualifying Termination, divided by the number of months in the relevant performance period.

Performance-Adjusted RSUs (PARSUs) With Single-Segment/Performance Period Vesting
(Generally granted on or after December 6, 2019)

Assumptions regarding Award design:
The vesting terms of the PARSU Award are as follows:
The PARSUs will vest in full when performance is certified at the end of the 3-year performance period, with continued service. The portion becoming vested will depend on performance against each year’s EPS target as well as the 3-year TSR result versus S&P 500, and will range from 0% to 200% of the target number of PARSUs.
Upon the Executive Officer’s Qualifying Termination prior to the PARSUs becoming 100% vested, the Executive Officer is entitled to “pro rata vesting” of the PARSU Award.
The rules of proration are as follows:
If the Executive Officer’s termination of employment occurs prior to the end of the performance period, the PARSU will vest pro rata at the end of the performance period, based on the number of full months elapsed from the beginning of the performance period to the date of the Qualifying Termination, divided by the number of months in the performance period. The final payout of the pro rata PARSUs will depend on EPS performance against each year’s EPS target as well as the 3-year TSR result vs. S&P 500. Performance applied to pro-rata units will be the same as the rest of participants.
These rules can be illustrated as follows:

THIS GRANT AGREEMENT, as of the Grant Date noted above between HP Inc., a Delaware Corporation (“Company”), and the employee named above (“Employee”), is entered into as follows:

WHEREAS, the continued participation of the Employee is considered by the Company to be important for the Company's continued growth; and

WHEREAS, in order to give the Employee an incentive to continue in the employ of the Company (or its Affiliates or Subsidiaries), to accept ancillary agreements designed to protect the legitimate business interests of the Company that are made a condition of this grant and to participate in the affairs of the Company, the HR and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company or its delegates (“Committee”) has determined that the Employee shall be granted restricted stock units representing hypothetical shares of the Company’s common stock (“RSUs”), with each RSU equal in value to one share of the Company’s $0.01 par value common stock (“Share”), subject to the restrictions stated below and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the plan named above (“Plan”), a copy of which can be found on the Long-term Incentives website along with a copy of the related prospectus. The Plan and the related prospectus also can be obtained by written or telephonic request to the Company Secretary. Unless otherwise defined in this Grant Agreement, any capitalized terms in this Grant Agreement shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the Plan.

THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:

1.
Grant of Restricted Stock Units.
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Grant Agreement and of the Plan, the Company hereby grants to the Employee the number of RSUs set forth above.

2.
Vesting Schedule.
The interest of the Employee in the RSUs shall vest according to the vesting schedule set forth above, or if earlier, in accordance with Section 8 or 9, below, except to the extent a severance plan applicable to the Employee provides otherwise. Unless the provisions of Section 8 or 9 apply, the Employee must remain in the employ of the Company, any Subsidiary or Affiliate on a continuous basis through the close of business on the applicable Vesting Date, as set forth above, and the Employee must be in compliance with the requirements and conditions provided for in the Plan and this Grant Agreement for the interest of the Employee in the RSUs to become fully vested on that date.






3.
Benefit Upon Settlement.
Within 75 days of each Vesting Date set forth on the above vesting schedule or, if earlier, a vesting event pursuant to Section 8 or 9 below, the Company shall deliver or pay, as applicable, to the Employee (or the Employee’s guardian, estate or beneficiary in the event of Section 8 or 9) Shares or a combination of cash and Shares, as the Company determines in its sole discretion, with a value equal to:

(a)
the number of RSUs that have become vested as of such vesting date or vesting event, as applicable, multiplied by the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date on which such RSUs vested; plus
(b)    a dividend equivalent payment credited in the form of additional RSUs for each ordinary cash dividend the Company pays on its Shares and for which the record date occurs between the grant date and the date the RSUs are settled, determined by:
(1)
multiplying the per share cash dividend paid by the Company on its Shares by the total number of RSUs that are outstanding as of the record date for the dividend; and
(2)
dividing the amount determined in (1) above by the Fair Market Value of a Share on the dividend payment date to determine the number of additional whole and fractional RSUs to be credited to the Employee;
provided, however, that if any aggregated dividend equivalent payments in Section (b)(2) above to be delivered in Shares result in a payment of a fractional Share, such fractional Share shall be rounded up to the next whole Share.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may, in its sole discretion, settle the RSUs in the form of a cash payment to the extent settlement in Shares: (i) is prohibited under local law; (ii) would require the Employee, the Company and/or any Subsidiary or Affiliate to obtain the approval of any governmental and/or regulatory body in the Employee's country; (iii) would result in adverse tax consequences for the Employee, the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate; or (iv) is administratively burdensome. Alternatively, the Company may, in its sole discretion, settle the RSUs in the form of Shares but require the Employee to sell such Shares immediately or within a specified period of time following the Employee’s termination of employment (in which case the Employee expressly authorizes the Company to issue sales instructions on the Employee's behalf).

4.
Restrictions.
Except as otherwise provided for in this Grant Agreement, the RSUs or rights granted hereunder may not be sold, pledged or otherwise transferred. The period of time between the Grant Date and the date the RSUs become fully vested pursuant to Section 2 is referred to herein as the “Restriction Period.”
5.
Custody of Restricted Stock Units.
The RSUs subject hereto shall be recorded in an account with the Plan broker in the name of the Employee. Upon termination of the Restriction Period, if the Company determines, in its sole discretion, to deliver Shares pursuant to Section 3 above, such Shares shall be released into the Employee’s account; provided, however, that a portion of such Shares shall be surrendered in payment of Tax-Related Items, as defined and in accordance with Section 11 below, unless the Company, in its sole discretion, establishes alternative procedures for the payment of Tax-Related Items.

6.
No Stockholder Rights.
RSUs represent hypothetical Shares. Until Shares are delivered to the Employee pursuant to the terms of this Grant Agreement, the Employee shall not be entitled to any of the rights or benefits generally accorded to stockholders, including, without limitation, the receipt of dividends.

7.
Termination of Employment.
Except as otherwise provided for in this Grant Agreement or in the Plan or as otherwise determined by the Company in its sole discretion, if the Employee's employment with the Company, any Subsidiary or Affiliate is terminated at any time for any reason prior to the lapse of the Restriction Period, all unvested RSUs granted hereunder shall be forfeited by the Employee, except to the extent a severance plan applicable to the Employee provides otherwise.

For purposes of this Grant Agreement, the Employee's employment or service will be considered terminated as of the date he or she is no longer actively providing services to the Company, any Subsidiary or Affiliate (regardless of the reason for such termination and whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction where the Employee is employed or retained or the terms of the Employee's employment or service agreement, if any) and will not be extended by any notice period (e.g., the Employee's period of employment or service would not include any contractual notice period or any period of “garden leave” or similar period mandated under the employment laws in the jurisdiction where the Employee is employed or retained or the terms of the Employee's employment or service agreement, if any). The Committee shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when the Employee's employment or service is terminated for purposes of this Grant Agreement (including whether the Employee may still be considered to be providing service while on a leave of absence).






8.
Disability or Retirement of the Employee.
If the Employee’s employment is terminated prior to the end of the Restriction Period by reason of the Employee’s Total and Permanent Disability or retirement in accordance with the applicable retirement policy, all RSUs shall immediately vest including any amounts for dividend equivalent payments on RSUs that vest at termination subject to the condition that the Employee shall have executed a current Agreement Regarding Confidential Information and Proprietary Developments (“ARCIPD”) that is satisfactory to the Company, and shall not have engaged in any conduct that creates a conflict of interest in the opinion of the Company.

9.
Death of the Employee.
In the event that termination of employment prior to the end of the Restriction Period is due to the death of the Employee, all unvested RSUs shall immediately vest including any amounts for dividend equivalent payments on such vested RSUs.

10.
Section 409A.
The following provisions apply to the extent the Employee is subject to taxation in the U.S. Payments made pursuant to the Plan and this Grant Agreement are intended to comply with or qualify for an exemption from Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”). The Company reserves the right, to the extent the Company deems necessary or advisable in its sole discretion, to unilaterally amend or modify the Plan and/or this Grant Agreement or adopt other policies and procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive effect), or take any other actions, including any amendments or actions that would result in the reduction of benefits payable under this Grant Agreement, as the Company determines are necessary or appropriate to ensure that all RSUs and dividend equivalent payments are made in a manner that qualifies for an exemption from, or complies with, Section 409A or mitigate any additional tax, interest and/or penalties or other adverse tax consequences that may apply under Section 409A: provided however, that the Company makes no representations that the RSUs or dividend equivalents will be exempt from any taxes, interest, and/or penalties that may apply under Section 409A and makes no undertaking to preclude Section 409A from applying to this RSU. For the avoidance of doubt, the Employee hereby acknowledges and agrees that neither the Company nor any Affiliate or Subsidiary will have any liability to the Employee or any other party if any amounts payable under this Grant Agreement are not exempt from, or compliant with, Section 409A, or for any action taken by the Company with respect thereto. Any payments under this Grant Agreement, the settlement of which is triggered by a "separation from service" (within the meaning of Section 409A) of a "specified employee" (as defined under Section 409A), shall  be made on a date that is the earlier of (a) the Employee’s death or (b) the later of the specified settlement date and the date which is six months after the date of the Employee’s separation from service.

11.
Taxes.
(a)
The Employee shall be liable for any and all taxes, including income tax, social insurance, fringe benefit tax, payroll tax, payment on account, employer taxes or other tax-related items related to the Employee’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to or otherwise recoverable from the Employee by the Company and/or, if different, the Employee’s employer (the “Employer”) whether incurred at grant, vesting, sale, prior to vesting or at any other time (“Tax-Related Items”). In the event that the Company or the Employer (which, for purposes of this Section 11, shall include a former employer) is required, allowed or permitted to withhold taxes as a result of the grant or vesting of RSUs or the issuance or subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such RSUs, or due upon receipt of dividend equivalent payments or dividends, the Employee shall surrender a sufficient number of whole Shares, make a cash payment or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to withhold such taxes from Employee’s wages or other cash compensation paid to the Employee by the Company and/or the Employer at the election of the Company, in its sole discretion, or, if permissible under local law, the Company may sell or arrange for the sale of Shares that Employee acquires as necessary to cover all Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer has to withhold or that are legally recoverable from the Employee (such as fringe benefit tax) at the time the restrictions on the RSUs lapse, unless the Company, in its sole discretion, has established alternative procedures for such payment. However, with respect to any RSUs subject to Section 409A, the Employer shall limit the surrender of Shares to the minimum number of Shares permitted to avoid a prohibited acceleration under Section 409A. The Employee will receive a cash refund for any fraction of a surrendered Share or Shares in excess of any and all Tax-Related Items. To the extent that any surrender of Shares or payment of cash or alternative procedure for such payment is insufficient, the Employee authorizes the Company, its Affiliates and Subsidiaries, which are qualified to deduct tax at source, to deduct from the Employee’s compensation all Tax-Related Items. The Employee agrees to pay any Tax-Related Items that cannot be satisfied from wages or other cash compensation, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law.

(b)
Regardless of any action the Company or the Employer takes with respect to any or all Tax-Related Items, the Employee acknowledges and agrees that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items is and remains the Employee’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the Employer. The Employee further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer: (i) make no representations nor undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of this grant of RSUs or dividend equivalents, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting or settlement of RSUs or dividend equivalents, the subsequent delivery of Shares and/or cash upon settlement of such RSUs or the subsequent sale of any Shares acquired pursuant to such RSUs and receipt of any dividends or dividend equivalent payments; and (ii) notwithstanding Section 10, do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms or any aspect of this grant of RSUs and/or dividend equivalents to reduce or eliminate the Employee’s liability for Tax-Related Items or to achieve any particular tax result. Further, if the Employee has become subject to tax





in more than one jurisdiction, the Employee acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.

(c)
Depending on the withholding method, the Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable statutory withholding rates or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum applicable rates in the Employee’s jurisdiction(s), in which case the Employee will receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash and will have no entitlement to the Share equivalent. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in Shares, for tax purposes, the Employee is deemed to have been issued the full number of shares of Common Stock subject to the vested RSUs, notwithstanding that a number of the shares of Common Stock are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items.

(d)
The Employee shall pay the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for as a result of the Employee’s participation in the Plan or the Employee’s receipt of RSUs that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to deliver the benefit described in Section 3 if the Employee fails to comply with the Employee’s obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.

(e)
The Employee consents and agrees that in the event the RSUs or the dividend equivalents become subject to an employer tax that is legally permitted to be recovered from the Employee, as may be determined by the Company and/or the Employer at their sole discretion, and whether or not the Employee’s employment with the Company and/or the Employer is continuing at the time such tax becomes recoverable, the Employee will assume any liability for any such taxes that may be payable by the Company and/or the Employer in connection with the RSUs and dividend equivalents. Further, the Employee agrees that the Company and/or the Employer may collect any such taxes from the Employee by any of the means set forth in this Section 11. The Employee further agrees to execute any other consents or elections required to accomplish the above, promptly upon request of the Company.

12.
Data Privacy Consent.
(a)
The Employee hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of the Employee’s personal data as described in this Grant Agreement and any other materials by and among, as applicable, the Company, its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, and the Employer for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Employee’s participation in the Plan.

(b)
The Employee understands that the Company, its Subsidiaries and Affiliates, and the Employer may hold certain personal information about the Employee, including, but not limited to, name, home address, email address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number, passport number or other identification number, salary, nationality, residency, status, job title, any shares of stock or directorships held in the Company, details of all RSUs, options or any other entitlement to shares of stock granted, canceled, purchased, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in the Employee’s favor (“Data”) for the exclusive purpose of implementing, managing and administering the Plan.

(c)
The Employee understands that Data may be transferred to Merrill Lynch and any third parties assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan, that these recipients may be located in the Employee’s country or elsewhere, and that the recipient’s country may have different data privacy laws and protections than the Employee’s country. The Company is committed to protecting the privacy of Data in such cases. The Employee understands that by contract both with the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates and with Merrill Lynch and/or the Company’s other vendors, the people and companies that have access to the Employee’s Data are bound to handle such Data in a manner consistent with the Company’s privacy policy and law. The Company periodically performs due diligence and audits on its vendors in accordance with good commercial practices to ensure their capabilities and compliance with those commitments. The Employee further understands that Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage the Employee’s participation in the Plan.

(d)
The Employee understands that if he or she resides outside the United States, the Employee may, at any time, view Data, request additional information about the storage and processing of Data, require any necessary amendments to Data or refuse or withdraw the consents herein, in any case without cost, by contacting in writing his or her local human resources representative. Further, the Employee understands that he or she is providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis. If the Employee does not consent, or if the Employee later seeks to revoke his or her consent, the Employee's employment status or service with the Company or his or her Employer will not be affected; the only consequence of refusing or withdrawing the Employee’s consent is that the Company would not be able to grant the Employee RSUs or other equity awards or administer and manage the Employee’s participation in the Plan. Therefore, the Employee understands that refusing or withdrawing his or her consent may affect the Employee’s ability to participate in the Plan. For more information on the consequences of the Employee’s refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, the Employee understands that he or she may contact his or her local human resources representative.






(e)
Further, the Employee understands that the Company may rely on a different legal basis for the processing and/or transfer of Data in the future and/or request that the Employee provide another data privacy consent. If applicable and upon request of the Company or a Subsidiary or Affiliate, the Employee agrees to provide an executed data privacy consent or acknowledgement (or any other consents, acknowledgements or agreements) to the Company or a Subsidiary or Affiliate that the Company and/or a Subsidiary or Affiliate may deem necessary to obtain under the data privacy laws in the Employee’s country of employment, either now or in the future. The Employee understands that he or she may be unable to participate in the Plan if he or she fails to execute any such acknowledgement, agreement or consent requested by the Company and/or a Subsidiary or Affiliate.

By electronically accepting RSUs on the Merrill Lynch website, the Employee is declaring that the Employee agrees with the data processing practices described in this Section 12 and that the Employee consents to the collection, processing and use of Data by the Company and the transfer of Data to the recipients mentioned therein for the purposes described therein.

The Employee acknowledges that copies of the Plan, Plan prospectus, Plan information and stockholder information are available upon written or telephonic request to the Company Secretary.

APPENDIX
HP INC. 2004 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN, AS AMENDED

GRANT AGREEMENT FOR NON-U.S. EMPLOYEES

Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Grant Agreement or the Plan.

This Appendix includes additional terms and conditions that govern the RSUs granted to the Employee if the Employee resides and/or is employed in one of the countries listed herein. This Appendix is part of the Grant Agreement.

If the Employee is a citizen or resident (or is considered as such for local law purposes) of a country other than the country in which the Employee is currently residing and/or employed, or if the Employee transfers to another country after the Grant Date, the Company shall, in its discretion, determine to what extent the special terms and conditions contained herein shall be applicable to the Employee.

This Appendix also includes information and notices regarding securities, exchange control, tax and certain other issues of which the Employee should be aware with respect to his or her participation in the Plan. The information is based on the securities, exchange control, tax and other laws in effect in the respective countries as of October 2019. Such laws are often complex and change frequently. As a result, the Company strongly recommends that the Employee not rely on the information contained herein as the only source of information relating to the consequences of his or her participation in the Plan because the information may be out of date at the time the Employee vests in the RSUs, receives Shares, a cash payment or a dividend equivalent payment upon vesting, sells any Shares acquired under the Plan or receive dividends paid on such Shares. In addition, the information is general in nature and may not apply to the Employee's particular situation, and the Company is not in a position to assure the Employee of any particular result. Therefore, the Employee is advised to seek appropriate professional advice as to how the relevant laws in his or her country may apply to the Employee's individual situation.

If the Employee is a citizen or resident (or is considered as such for local law purposes) of a country other than the country in which the Employee is currently residing and/or employed, or if the Employee transfers to another country after the Grant Date, the information contained herein may not be applicable to the Employee in the same manner.

European Union (“EU”) / European Economic Area (“EEA”)

Data Privacy. If the Employee resides or is employed in the EU or EEA, the following provision replaces Section 12 of the Grant Agreement.

The Company is located at 1501 Page Mill, Palo Alto, California 94304, USA and grants RSUs under the Plan to the Employee at the Company’s sole discretion. The Employee should review the following information about the Company’s data processing practices.

Data Collection and Usage. Pursuant to applicable data protection laws, the Employee is hereby notified that the Company collects, processes uses, and transfers certain personally-identifiable information about the Employee for the legitimate interest of implementing, administering and managing the Plan and generally administering equity awards; specifically, including the Employee’s name, home address, email address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, citizenship, job title, any Shares or directorships held in the Company, and details of all RSUs or any other awards granted, canceled, exercised, vested, or outstanding in the Employee’s favor, which the Company receives from the Employee or the Employer. In granting the Employee RSUs under the Plan, the Company will collect the Employee’s personal data for purposes of allocating Shares and implementing, administering and managing the Plan. The Company’s collection, processing, use and transfer of the Employee’s personal data is necessary for the performance of the Company’s contractual obligations under the Plan and pursuant to the Company’s legitimate interest of managing and generally administering employee equity awards. The Employee’s refusal to provide personal data would make it impossible for the Company to perform its contractual obligations and may affect the Employee’s ability to participate in the Plan. As such, by participating in the Plan, the Employee voluntarily acknowledges the collection, use, processing and transfer of the Employee’s personal data as described herein.

Stock Plan Administration Service Provider. The Company transfers the Employee’s data to Merrill Lynch, an independent service provider based in the United States, which assists the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. In the future, the Company may select a different service provider and share the Employee’s data with another company that serves in a similar manner. The Company’s service provider will open an account for the Employee to receive and trade Shares. The Employee will be asked to agree on separate terms and data processing practices with the service provider, which is a condition to the Employee’s ability to participate in the Plan.

International Data Transfers. The Company and its service providers are based in the United States. The Company can only meet its contractual obligations to the Employee if the Employee’s personal data is transferred to the United States. The performance of the Company’s contractual obligations to the Employee is one of the legal bases for the transfer of the Employee’s data from the





EU/EEA to the United States. The Employee should be aware that the United States has different data privacy laws and protections than the data privacy laws in place in the EU/EEA.

Data Retention. The Company will use the Employee’s personal data only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage the Employee’s participation in the Plan or as required to comply with legal or regulatory obligations, including under tax and security laws. When the Company no longer needs the Employee’s personal data, the Company will remove it from its systems. If the Company keeps the Employee’s data longer, it will be to satisfy legal, regulatory or tax obligations and the Company’s legal basis would be for compliance with relevant laws or regulations.

Data Subjects Rights. The Employee may have a number of rights under data privacy laws in the Employee’s country of employment (and country of residence, if different). For example, the Employee’s rights may include the right to (i) request access or copies of personal data the Company processes, (ii) request rectification of incorrect data, (iii) request deletion of data, (iv) place restrictions on processing, (v) lodge complaints with competent authorities in the Employee’s country, and/or (vi) request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of your personal data. To receive clarification regarding the Employee’s rights or to exercise his or her rights, the Employee should contact the Employee’s local HR manager or global.equity@hp.com

Labor Law Acknowledgment
The Employee acknowledges that he or she understands and agrees that:

(i) the RSUs are not related to the salary and other contractual benefits granted to the Employee by the Employer; and (ii) any modification of the Plan or its termination shall not constitute a change or impairment of the terms and conditions of employment.

Policy Statement
The invitation the Company is making under the Plan is unilateral and discretionary and, therefore, the Company reserves the absolute right to amend it and discontinue it at any time without any liability to the Employee.

The Company, with its registered office at 1501 Page Mill, Palo Alto, California 94304, USA, is solely responsible for the administration of the Plan. Participation in the Plan and the acquisition of Shares does not, in any way, establish an employment relationship between the Employee and the Company since the Employee is participating in the Plan on a wholly commercial basis and the sole employer is the Employer, nor does it establish any rights between the Employee and Employer.

Plan Document Acknowledgment
The Employee acknowledges he or she has received a copy of the Plan, has reviewed the Plan and the Grant Agreement in their entirety and fully understands and accepts all provisions of the Plan and the Grant Agreement.

In addition, by signing below, the Employee further acknowledges that having read and specifically and expressly approved the terms and conditions in Section 14 of the Grant Agreement, in which the following is clearly described and established: (i) participation in the Plan does not constitute an acquired right; (ii) the Plan and participation in the Plan is offered by the Company on a wholly discretionary basis; (iii) participation in the Plan is voluntary; and (iv) the Company, its Subsidiaries and its Affiliates are not responsible for any decrease in the value of the Shares underlying the RSUs.

Finally, the Employee does not reserve any action or right to bring any claim against the Company for any compensation or damages as a result of participation in the Plan and the Employee therefore grants a full and broad release to his/her Employer and the Company and its other Subsidiaries and Affiliates with respect to any claim that may arise under the Plan.

Warning

This is a grant of RSUs. The underlying Shares give you a stake in the ownership of the Company. The Employee may receive a return if dividends are paid.

If the Company runs into financial difficulties and is wound up, the Employee will be paid only after all creditors and holders of preference shares have been paid. The Employee may lose some or all of his or her investment.
New Zealand law normally requires people who offer financial products to give information to investors before they invest. This information is designed to help investors to make an informed decision.

The usual rules do not apply to this offer because it is made under an employee share purchase scheme. As a result, the Employee may not be given all the information usually required. The Employee will also have fewer other legal protections for this investment.

Ask questions, read all documents carefully, and seek independent financial advice before committing yourself.

SPAIN

Terms and Conditions

Acknowledgment and Waiver
The following provisions supplement Section 14 of the Grant Agreement:

The Employee acknowledges that he or she consents to participation in the Plan and has received a copy of the Plan.

The Employee understands that the Company has unilaterally, gratuitously and discretionally decided to grant RSUs under the Plan to individuals who may be employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates throughout the world. The decision is a limited decision that is entered into upon the express assumption and condition that any grant will not economically or otherwise bind the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates on an ongoing basis except as provided in the Plan. Consequently, the Employee understands that the RSUs are granted on the assumption and condition that the RSUs or the Shares acquired upon vesting shall not become a part of any employment contract (either with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates) and shall not be considered a mandatory benefit, salary for any purposes (including severance compensation) or any other right whatsoever. In addition, the Employee understands that this grant would not be made to the Employee but for the assumptions and conditions referred to above; thus, the Employee acknowledges and freely accepts that should any or all of the assumptions be mistaken or should any of the conditions not be met for any reason, then the RSUs shall be null and void.

The RSUs are a conditional right to Shares and can be forfeited in the case of, or affected by, the Employee's termination of service or employment. This will be the case, for example, even if (1) the Employee is considered to be unfairly dismissed without good cause; (2) the Employee is dismissed for disciplinary or objective reasons or due to a collective dismissal; (3) the Employee terminates employment or service due to a change of work location, duties or any other employment or contractual condition; (4) the Employee terminates employment or service due to unilateral breach of contract of the Company, the Employer, or any other Subsidiary or Affiliate; or (5) the Employee's employment or service terminates for any other reason whatsoever, except for reasons specified in the Grant Agreement. Consequently, upon termination of the Employee's employment or service for any of the reasons set forth above, the Employee may automatically lose any rights to the unvested RSUs granted to him or her as of the date of the Employee's termination of employment, as described in the Plan and the Grant Agreement.

Generally, the declaration must be made in by filing the appropriate form with the DGCI. The ownership of any Shares must also be declared with the DGCI each





January while the Shares are owned. However, if the value of the Shares acquired or sold during the year exceeds a particular threshold, the declaration must be filed within one month of the acquisition or sale, as applicable.

Foreign Asset/Account Reporting Notice
The Employee understands that to the extent he or she holds assets (e.g., cash or Shares held in a bank or brokerage account) outside Spain with a value in excess of 50,000 per type of asset (e.g., cash or Shares) as of December 31 each year, the Employee is required to report information on such rights and assets on his or her tax return for such year. After such rights or assets are initially reported, the reporting obligation will only apply for subsequent years if the value of any previously-reported rights or assets increases by more than 20,000. The reporting must be completed by March 31 following the end of the relevant tax year.

Further, the Employee understands that he or she is required to declare electronically to the Bank of Spain any securities accounts (including brokerage accounts held abroad), as well as the securities (including Shares acquired under the Plan) held in such accounts, and any transaction carried out with non-residents, if the value of the transactions or the balances in such accounts as of December 31st of the prior tax year exceeds 1,000,000.

THIS PERFORMANCE-ADJUSTED RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS GRANT AGREEMENT (this “Grant Agreement”), as of the Grant Date noted above between HP Inc., a Delaware Corporation (“Company”), and the employee named above (“Employee”), is entered into as follows:

WHEREAS, the continued participation of the Employee is considered by the Company to be important for the Company's continued growth; and
    
WHEREAS, in order to give the Employee an incentive to continue in the employ of the Company (or its Affiliates or Subsidiaries), to accept ancillary agreements designed to protect the legitimate business interests of the Company that are made a condition of this grant and to participate in the affairs of the Company, the HR and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company or its delegates (“Committee”) has determined that the Employee shall be granted performance-adjusted restricted stock units (“PARSUs”) representing hypothetical shares of the Company’s common stock (the "Grant") and dividend equivalents. The target amount stated above reflects the target number of PARSUs that may be granted to Employee (the “Target Amount”). The number of PARSUs achieved will be determined and paid out at the end of the Performance Period. Each PARSU will be equal in value to one share of the Company’s $0.01 par value common stock (“Share”), subject to the restrictions stated below and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the plan named above (“Plan”), a copy of which can be found on the Long-term Incentives website along with a copy of the related prospectus. The Plan and the related prospectus also can be obtained by written or telephonic request to the Company Secretary. Unless otherwise defined in this Grant Agreement, any capitalized terms in this Grant Agreement shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the Plan.






THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:

1.
Grant of Performance-Adjusted Restricted Stock Units.
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Grant Agreement and of the Plan, the Company hereby grants to the Employee PARSUs together with dividend equivalent units, as set forth below.

2.
Performance Criteria and Performance Periods.
The goals associated with the PARSUs shall be established by the Committee, and will be communicated separately to the Employee by the Company. Shares delivered at the end of the Performance Period with respect to the PARSUs will range from 0% to 200% of the Target Amount of PARSUs, based upon the Company’s performance against the earnings per share (“EPS”) and relative total shareholder return (“TSR”) goals (as compared to S&P 500 performance) as certified by the Committee. No PARSUs will be achieved if performance is below minimum levels.

3.
Crediting of Units.
(a)
Adjustments Based on EPS Goals. The Target Amount of units will initially be adjusted based upon performance against the average of the yearly EPS goals, as certified by the Committee (the “Adjusted EPS Units”). Each year’s EPS goals will result in the following adjustment: 0% if performance is below the minimum level, 50% if performance is at the minimum level, 100% if performance is at target level, 150% if performance is above target, and 200% if performance is at or above the maximum level. For performance between the minimum level and target level, between target level and the above target level, or between the above target level and the maximum level, a proportionate percentage will be applied based on straight-line interpolation between levels. At the end of the Performance Period each individual year’s EPS performance will be added together and then divided by three to determine the average EPS performance for the Performance Period, which will then be applied to the Target Amount of units to determine the EPS payout. By way of example, if Year 1 EPS performance is at the minimum, Year 2 EPS performance is above target, and Year 3 EPS performance is above target, the EPS payout would be 116.7% (the sum of 50%, 150%, and 150%, divided by 3). Accordingly, the Adjusted EPS Units would be equal to 116.7% of the Target Amount of units.

(b)
Adjustments Based on TSR Goals. After the end of the 3-year Performance Period, the final payout of PARSUs will be determined based on the Adjusted EPS Units, as further adjusted based upon performance against the TSR goal for the Performance Period, as certified by the Committee as follows: if relative TSR performance is in the bottom quartile, the Adjusted EPS Units will be reduced by 25% (capped at 0% of target) (using the example above, 116.7%-25% = 91.7%); if relative TSR is in the top quartile, the Adjusted EPS Units will be increased by 25% (capped at 200% of target) (using the example above, 116.7%+25% = 141.7%); if relative TSR performance is in the second or third quartile, no additional adjustment will be made to the Adjusted EPS Units (using the example above, Adjusted EPS units will be at 116.7%).

(c)
Service Requirement. Notwithstanding (a) and (b) above, the Employee must be employed on the last U.S. business day of the Performance Period in order to be credited with any PARSUs.
4.
Payout of Performance-Adjusted Restricted Stock Units and Dividend Equivalents.

Except as otherwise provided in Sections 9 through 11 below, following the Committee's certification (if applicable) at the end of the Performance Period that the goals associated with the PARSUs have been met and that the terms and conditions set forth in this Grant Agreement have been fulfilled (and in any event within 75 days of the last day of the Performance Period), the Company shall deliver to the Employee's account (or the Employee’s estate or beneficiary or legal guardian in the event of Sections 9 through 11 below, as applicable) a number of Shares equal to the following:

(a)
a number of Shares corresponding to the number of PARSUs that have become vested pursuant to Section 3 (and Section 9 through 11, as applicable); plus

(b)
a dividend equivalent payment credited in the form of additional PARSUs for each ordinary cash dividend the Company pays on its Shares and for which the record date occurs between the grant date and the date the PARSUs are settled, determined by:

(1)
multiplying the per share cash dividend paid by the Company on its Shares by the total number the number of PARSUs that became vested as determined in Section 3 as of the record date for the dividend; and
(2)
dividing the amount determined in (1) above by the Fair Market Value of a Share on the dividend payment date to determine the number of additional whole and fractional PARSUs to be credited to the Employee;
provided, however, that if any aggregated dividend equivalent payments in Section (b)(2) above result in a payment of a fractional Share, such fractional Share shall be rounded up to the nearest whole Share.


2



Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may, in its sole discretion, settle the PARSUs in the form of a cash payment to the extent settlement in Shares: (i) is prohibited under local law; (ii) would require the Employee, the Company and/or any Subsidiary or Affiliate to obtain the approval of any governmental and/or regulatory body in the Employee's country; (iii) would result in adverse tax consequences for the Employee, the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate; or (iv) is administratively burdensome. Alternatively, the Company may, in its sole discretion, settle the PARSUs in the form of Shares but require the Employee to sell such Shares immediately or within a specified period of time following the Employee’s termination of employment (in which case the Employee expressly authorizes the Company to issue sales instructions on the Employee's behalf).

5.
Restrictions.

Except as otherwise provided for in this Grant Agreement, the PARSUs or rights granted hereunder may not be sold, pledged or otherwise transferred.

6.
Custody of Performance-Adjusted Restricted Stock Units.

The PARSUs subject hereto shall be held in a restricted book entry account in the name of the Employee. Upon completion of the Performance Period, any Shares deliverable pursuant to Section 4 above shall be released into an unrestricted brokerage account in the name of the Employee; provided, however, that a portion of such Shares shall be surrendered in payment of Tax-Related Items in accordance with Section 13 below, unless the Company, in its sole discretion, establishes alternative procedures for the payment of such taxes. Any Shares not deliverable pursuant to Section 4 above shall be forfeited from the Employee's account.

7.
No Stockholder Rights.

PARSUs represent hypothetical Shares. Until Shares are delivered to the Employee pursuant to the terms of this Grant Agreement, the Employee shall not be entitled to any of the rights or benefits generally accorded to stockholders, including, without limitation, the receipt of dividends.

8.
Termination of Employment.

Except in the case of a termination of employment due to the Employee's death, retirement or Total and Permanent Disability, the Employee must remain in the employ of the Company on a continuous basis through the last U.S. business day of the Performance Period in order to be eligible to receive any amount of the PARSUs except to the extent a severance plan applicable to the Employee provides otherwise, subject to the terms and conditions of this Grant Agreement.

For purposes of this Grant Agreement, the Employee's employment or service will be considered terminated as of the date he or she is no longer actively providing services to the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate. The Committee shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when the Employee's employment or service is terminated for purposes of this Grant Agreement (including whether the Employee may still be considered to be providing service while on a leave of absence).

9.
Benefit in Event of Death of the Employee.

In the event that termination of employment is due to the death of the Employee, all unvested PARSUs shall vest immediately based on deemed attainment of the performance criteria at target levels, or based on actual performance as determined in accordance with Sections 3(a) and/or 3(b) for a termination occurring after the completion of a performance period, including any Shares representing dividend equivalent payments calculated in accordance with Section 4(b), except that the calculation will be based on the number of PARSUs that vest in accordance with this Section 9, and any such Shares representing the vested PARSUs and dividend equivalent payments shall be delivered within 75 days of vesting.

10.
Retirement of the Employee.

If the Employee’s termination is due to retirement in accordance with an applicable retirement policy, a Pro Rata Portion of the PARSUs shall vest at the end of the Performance Period based on actual performance as determined in accordance with Sections 3(a) and/or 3(b). The Company's obligation to deliver the amounts that vest pursuant to this Section 10 is subject to the condition that (i) the Employee shall have executed a current Agreement Regarding Confidential Information and Proprietary Developments (“ARCIPD”) that is satisfactory to the Company, and (ii) during the portion of the Performance Period following termination of the Employee's active employment, the Employee is in compliance with any-post employment restrictions in the ARCIPD and does not engage in any conduct that creates a conflict of interest in the opinion of the Company.
11.
Total and Permanent Disability of the Employee.

In the event that termination of employment is due to the Total and Permanent Disability of the Employee, all unvested PARSUs shall vest immediately based on deemed attainment of the performance criteria at target levels, or based on actual performance as determined in accordance with Sections 3(a) and/or 3(b) for a termination occurring after the completion of

3



a performance period, including any Shares representing dividend equivalent payments calculated in accordance with Section 4(b), except that the calculation will be based on the number of PARSUs that vest in accordance with this Section 11, and any such Shares representing the vested PARSUs and dividend equivalent payments shall be delivered within 75 days of vesting. The Company's obligation to deliver the amounts that vest pursuant to this Section 11 is subject to the condition that (a) the Employee shall have executed a current ARCIPD that is satisfactory to the Company, and (b) during the portion of the Performance Period following termination of the Employee's active employment, the Employee is in compliance with any-post employment restrictions in the ARCIPD and does not engage in any conduct that creates a conflict of interest in the opinion of the Company.

12.
Section 409A.

The following provisions apply to the extent the Employee is subject to taxation in the U.S. Payments made pursuant to this Plan and this Grant Agreement are intended to comply with or qualify for an exemption from Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”). The Company reserves the right, to the extent the Company deems necessary or advisable in its sole discretion, to unilaterally amend or modify the Plan and/or this Grant Agreement or adopt other policies and procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive effect), or take any other actions, including any amendments or actions that would result in the reduction of benefits payable under this Grant Agreement, as the Company determines are necessary or appropriate to ensure that all PARSUs and dividend equivalent payments are made in a manner that qualifies for an exemption from, or complies with, Section 409A or mitigate any additional tax, interest and/or penalties or other adverse tax consequences that may apply under Section 409A; provided however, that the Company makes no representations that the PARSUs or the dividend equivalents will be exempt from any taxes, interest, and/or penalties that may apply under Section 409A and makes no undertaking to preclude Section 409A from applying to the PARSUs or the dividend equivalents. For the avoidance of doubt, the Employee hereby acknowledges and agrees that neither the Company nor any Affiliate or Subsidiary will have any liability to the Employee or any other party if any amounts payable under this Grant Agreement are not exempt from, or compliant with, Section 409A, or for any action taken by the Company with respect thereto. Any PARSUs or dividend equivalents that are considered non-qualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A (“NQDC”) and the settlement of which is triggered by "separation from service" (within the meaning of Section 409A) of a "specified employee" (as defined under Section 409A) shall be made on a date that is the earliest of (a) the Employee’s death, (b) the specified settlement date, and (c) the date which is one day following six months after the date of the Employee’s separation from service. If the PARSUs or dividend equivalents are considered NQDC and the payment period contemplated in Sections 10 or 11 crosses a calendar year, the PARSUs or dividend equivalents shall be paid in the second calendar year.

13.
Taxes.

(a)
The Employee shall be liable for any and all taxes, including income tax, social insurance, fringe benefit tax, payroll tax, payment on account, employer taxes or other tax-related items related to the Employee’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to or otherwise recoverable from the Employee by the Company and/or, if different, the Employee’s employer (the “Employer”) whether incurred at grant, vesting, sale, prior to vesting or at any other time (“Tax-Related Items”). In the event that the Company or the Employer (which, for purposes of this Section 13, shall include a former employer) is required, allowed or permitted to withhold taxes as a result of the grant or vesting of PARSUs (including dividend equivalents) or the issuance or subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such PARSUs, or due upon receipt of dividend equivalent payments or dividends, the Employee shall surrender a sufficient number of whole Shares, make a cash payment or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to withhold such taxes from the Employee’s wages or other cash compensation paid to the Employee by the Company and/or the Employer at the election of the Company, in its sole discretion, or, if permissible under local law, the Company may sell or arrange for the sale of Shares that Employee acquires as necessary to cover all Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer has to withhold or that are legally recoverable from the Employee (such as fringe benefit tax) at the time the restrictions on the PARSUs lapse, unless the Company, in its sole discretion, has established alternative procedures for such payment. However, with respect to any PARSUs subject to Section 409A, the Employer shall limit the surrender of Shares to the minimum number of Shares permitted to avoid a prohibited acceleration under Section 409A. The Employee will receive a cash refund for any fraction of a surrendered Share or Shares in excess of any and all Tax-Related Items. To the extent that any surrender of Shares or payment of cash or alternative procedure for such payment is insufficient, the Employee authorizes the Company, its Affiliates and Subsidiaries, which are qualified to deduct tax at source, to deduct from the Employee’s compensation all Tax-Related Items. The Employee agrees to pay any Tax-Related Items that cannot be satisfied from wages or other cash compensation, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law.

The Company and/or the Employer may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable statutory withholding amounts or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum applicable rates, in which case the Employee will receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash and will have no entitlement to the Share equivalent. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in Shares, for tax purposes, the Employee is deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject to the vested PARSUs, notwithstanding that a number of the Shares is held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of any aspect of the Employee’s participation in the Plan.


4



(b)
Regardless of any action the Company or the Employer takes with respect to any or all Tax-Related Items, the Employee acknowledges and agrees that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items is and remains the Employee’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the Employer. The Employee further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer: (i) make no representations nor undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of this grant of PARSUs or dividend equivalents, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting or settlement of PARSUs or dividend equivalents, the subsequent delivery of Shares and/or cash upon settlement of such PARSUs or the subsequent sale of any Shares acquired pursuant to such PARSUs and receipt of any dividends or dividend equivalent payments; and (ii) notwithstanding Section 12, do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms or any aspect of this grant of PARSUs and/or dividend equivalents to reduce or eliminate the Employee’s liability for Tax-Related Items or to achieve any particular tax result. Further, if the Employee has become subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction, the Employee acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction. The Employee shall pay the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for as a result of the Employee’s participation in the Plan or the Employee’s receipt of PARSUs that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to deliver the benefit described in Section 4 if the Employee fails to comply with the Employee’s obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.

(c)
In accepting the PARSUs, the Employee consents and agrees that in the event the PARSUs or the dividend equivalents become subject to an employer tax that is legally permitted to be recovered from the Employee, as may be determined by the Company and/or the Employer at their sole discretion, and whether or not the Employee’s employment with the Company and/or the Employer is continuing at the time such tax becomes recoverable, the Employee will assume any liability for any such taxes that may be payable by the Company and/or the Employer in connection with the PARSUs and dividend equivalents. Further, by accepting the PARSUs, the Employee agrees that the Company and/or the Employer may collect any such taxes from the Employee by any of the means set forth in this Section 13. The Employee further agrees to execute any other consents or elections required to accomplish the above, promptly upon request of the Company.

14.
Data Privacy Consent.

(a)
The Employee hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of the Employee’s personal data as described in this Grant Agreement and any other materials by and among, as applicable, the Company, its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, and the Employer for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Employee’s participation in the Plan.

(b)
The Employee understands that the Company, its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, and the Employer may hold certain personal information about the Employee, including, but not limited to, name, home address, email address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number, passport number or other identification number, salary, nationality, residency, status, job title, any shares of stock or directorships held in the Company, details of all PARSUs, options or any other entitlement to shares of stock granted, canceled, purchased, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in the Employee’s favor (“Data”) for the exclusive purpose of implementing, managing and administering the Plan.

(c)
The Employee understands that Data may be transferred to Merrill Lynch and any third parties assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan, that these recipients may be located in the Employee’s country or elsewhere, and that the recipient’s country may have different data privacy laws and protections than the Employee’s country. The Company is committed to protecting the privacy of Data in such cases. The Employee understands that by contract both with the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates and with Merrill Lynch and/or the Company’s other vendors, the people and companies that have access to the Employee’s Data are bound to handle such Data in a manner consistent with the Company's privacy policy and law. The Company periodically performs due diligence and audits on its vendors in accordance with good commercial practices to ensure their capabilities and compliance with those commitments. The Employee further understands that that Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage the Employee’s participation in the Plan.

(d)
The Employee understands that if he or she resides outside the United States, the Employee may, at any time, view Data, request additional information about the storage and processing of Data, require any necessary amendments to Data or refuse or withdraw the consents herein, in any case without cost, by contacting in writing his or her local human resources representative. Further, the Employee understands that he or she is providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis. If the Employee does not consent, or if the Employee later seeks to revoke his or her consent, the Employee's employment status or service with the Company or his or her Employer will not be affected; the only consequence of refusing or withdrawing the Employee’s consent is that the Company would not be able to grant the Employee PARSUs or other equity awards or administer and manage the Employee’s participation in the Plan. Therefore, the Employee understands that refusing or withdrawing his or her consent may affect the Employee’s ability to participate in the Plan. For more information on the consequences of the Employee’s refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, the Employee understands that he or she may contact the Employee’s local human resources representative.

The Employee acknowledges and understands that, depending on his or her broker's country of residence or where the Company shares are listed, the Employee may be subject to insider trading restrictions and/or market abuse laws which may affect the Employee’s ability to accept, acquire, purchase, sell or otherwise dispose of Shares or, rights to Shares during such times when the Employee is considered to have “inside information” regarding the Company as defined in the laws or regulations in the Employee’s country). Local insider trading laws and regulations may prohibit the cancellation or amendment of orders the Employee placed before he or she possessed inside information. Furthermore, the Employee could be prohibited from (a) disclosing the inside information to any third party (other than on a “need to know” basis) and (b) “tipping” third parties or causing them otherwise to buy or sell securities. The Employee understands that third parties include fellow employees. Any restrictions under these laws or regulations are separate from and in addition to any restrictions that may be imposed under any applicable Company insider trading policy. The Employee acknowledges that it is his or her responsibility to comply with such regulations; therefore, he or she should consult with the Employee’s personal advisor on this matter.    

20.
Miscellaneous.

(a)
The Company shall not be required to treat as owner of PARSUs and any associated benefits hereunder any transferee to whom such PARSUs or benefits shall have been transferred in violation of any of the provisions of this Grant Agreement.

(b)
The parties agree to execute such further instruments and to take such action as may reasonably be necessary to carry out the intent of this Grant Agreement.

(c)
The Plan is incorporated herein by reference. The Plan and this Grant Agreement constitute the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede in their entirety all prior undertakings and agreements of the Company and the Employee with respect to the subject matter hereof, other than the terms of any severance plan applicable to the Employee that provides more favorable vesting. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in the Plan or this Grant Agreement shall affect the validity or interpretation of any duly authorized written agreement between the Company and the Employee under which an award properly granted under and pursuant to the Plan serves as any part of the consideration furnished to the Employee, including without limitation, any agreement that imposes restrictions during or after employment regarding confidential information and proprietary developments. This Grant Agreement is governed by the laws of the state of Delaware without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

(d)
If the Employee has received this or any other document related to the Plan translated into a language other than English and if the meaning of the translated version is different than the English version, the English version will control.

(e)
The provisions of this Grant Agreement are severable and if any one or more provisions are determined to be illegal or otherwise unenforceable, in whole or in part, the remaining provisions shall nevertheless be binding and enforceable.

(f)
Notwithstanding Section 19(e), the Company’s obligations under this Grant Agreement and the Employee’s agreement to the terms of an arbitration agreement and/or an ARCIPD, if any, are mutually dependent. In the event that the Employee breaches the arbitration agreement or the Employee’s ARCIPD is breached or found not to be binding upon the Employee for any reason by a court of law, then the Company will have no further obligation or duty to perform under the Plan or this Grant Agreement.

(g)
A waiver by the Company of a breach of any provision of this Grant Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other provision of this Grant Agreement, or of any subsequent breach by the Employee or any other Awardee.

(h)
Notwithstanding any provisions in this Grant Agreement, the grant of the PARSUs shall be subject to any special terms and conditions set forth in the Appendix to this Grant Agreement for the Employee’s country of employment (and country of residence, if different), if any. Moreover, if the Employee relocates to one of the countries included in the Appendix, the special terms and conditions for such country will apply to the Employee, to the extent the Company determines that the application of such terms and conditions is necessary or advisable for legal, regulatory, tax or administrative reasons. The Appendix, if any, constitutes part of this Grant Agreement.

(i)
The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on the Employee’s participation in the Plan, on the PARSUs and on any Shares acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons, and to require the Employee to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing.

(j)
Any notice required or permitted hereunder to the Employee shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon delivery to the Employee at the address then on file with the Company.

(k)
Any notice to be given under the terms of this Grant Agreement to the Company will be addressed in care of Attn: Global Equity at HP Inc., 1501 Page Mill, Palo Alto, California 94304, USA.

(l)
The Employee acknowledges that there may be certain foreign asset and/or account reporting requirements which may affect his or her ability to acquire or hold Shares acquired under the Plan or cash received from participating in the Plan (including from any dividends or dividend equivalent payments) in a brokerage or bank account outside the Employee's country. The Employee may be required to report such accounts, assets or transactions to the tax or other authorities in his or her country. The Employee also may be required to repatriate sale proceeds or other funds received as a result of the Employee's participation in the Plan to his or her country through a designated bank or broker within a certain time after receipt. The Employee acknowledges that it is his or her responsibility to be compliant with such regulations, and the Employee is advised to consult his or her personal legal advisor for any details.
