All statements other than statements of historical fact are statements that could be deemed forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, any statements regarding the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic; projections of net revenue, margins, expenses, effective tax rates, net earnings, net earnings per share, cash flows, benefit plan funding, deferred taxes, share repurchases, foreign currency exchange rates or other financial items; any projections of the amount, timing or impact of cost savings or restructuring and other charges, planned structural cost reductions and productivity initiatives; any statements of the plans, strategies and objectives of management for future operations, including, but not limited to, our business model and transformation, our sustainability goals, our go-to-market strategy, the execution of restructuring plans and any resulting cost savings (including the 2023 plan), net revenue or profitability improvements or other financial impacts; any statements concerning the expected development, demand, performance, market share or competitive performance relating to products or services; any statements concerning potential supply constraints, component shortages, manufacturing disruptions or logistics challenges; any statements regarding current or future macroeconomic trends or events and the impact of those trends and events on HP and its financial performance; any statements regarding pending investigations, claims, disputes or other litigation matters; any statements of expectation or belief as to the timing and expected benefits of acquisitions and other business combination and investment transactions (including the recent acquisition of Plantronics, Inc. (“Poly”)); and any statements of assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. Forward-looking statements can also generally be identified by words such as “future,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “predicts,” “projects,” “will,” “would,” “could,” “can,” “may,” and similar terms. Risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could affect our business and results of operations include factors relating to the impact of macroeconomic and geopolitical trends, changes and events, including the Russian invasion of Ukraine and tension across the Taiwan Strait and the regional and global ramifications of these events; recent volatility in global capital markets, increases in benchmark interest rates and the effects of inflation; risks associated with HP’s international operations; the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic; the execution and performance of contracts by HP and its suppliers, customers, clients and partners, including logistical challenges with respect to such execution and performance; changes in estimates and assumptions HP makes in connection with the preparation of its financial statements; the need to manage (and reliance on) third-party suppliers, including with respect to component shortages, and the need to manage HP’s global, multi-tier distribution network, limit potential misuse of pricing programs by HP’s channel partners, adapt to new or changing marketplaces and effectively deliver HP’s services; HP’s ability to execute on its strategic plans, including the previously announced initiatives, business model changes and transformation; execution of planned structural cost reductions and productivity initiatives; HP’s ability to complete any contemplated share repurchases, other capital return programs or other strategic transactions; the competitive pressures faced by HP’s businesses; risks associated with executing HP’s strategy and business model changes and transformation; successfully innovating, developing and executing HP’s go-to-market strategy, including online, omnichannel and contractual sales, in an evolving distribution, reseller and customer landscape; the development and transition of new products and services and the enhancement of existing products and services to meet evolving customer needs and respond to emerging technological trends; successfully competing and maintaining the value proposition of HP’s products, including supplies; challenges to HP’s ability to accurately forecast inventories, demand and pricing, which may be due to HP’s multi-tiered channel, sales of HP’s products to unauthorized resellers or unauthorized resale of HP’s products or our uneven sales cycle; integration and other risks associated with business combination and investment transactions; the results of our restructuring plans (including the 2023 plan), including estimates and assumptions related to the cost (including any possible disruption of HP’s business) and the anticipated benefits of our restructuring plans; the protection of HP’s intellectual property assets, including intellectual property licensed from third parties; the hiring and retention of key employees; disruptions in operations from system security risks, data protection breaches, cyberattacks, extreme weather conditions or other effects of climate change, medical epidemics or pandemics such as the COVID-19 pandemic, and other natural or manmade disasters or catastrophic events; the impact of changes to federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations, including environmental regulations and tax laws; our aspirations related to environmental, social and governance matters; potential impacts, liabilities and costs from pending or potential investigations, claims and disputes; and other risks that are described herein, including but not limited to the items discussed in Item 1A “Risk Factors” of Part I in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022 and that are otherwise described or updated from time to time in HP’s other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The forward-looking statements in this report are made as of the date of this filing and HP assumes no obligation and does not intend to update these forward-looking statements.

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, 2022 in HP’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed on December 6, 2022. The Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheet for October 31, 2022 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. As of January 31, 2023, the extent to which the current macroeconomic factors will impact our business going forward depends on numerous dynamic factors which we cannot reliably predict. As a result, many of our estimates and assumptions required increased judgment and may carry a higher degree of variability and volatility. As the events continue to evolve with respect to the ongoing macroeconomic factors, our estimates may materially change in future periods.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In September 2022, the FASB issued guidance that enhances the transparency about the use of supplier finance programs. Under the new guidance, companies that use a supplier finance program in connection with the purchase of goods or services will be required to disclose information about the program to allow users of financial statements to understand the program’s nature, activity during the period, changes from period to period, and potential magnitude. HP is required to adopt the guidance in the first quarter of fiscal year 2024, except for the amendment on roll forward information which is effective one year later. Early adoption is permitted. HP is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.

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 goes to market through its extensive channel network and direct sales.
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 the 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 customers desktops and notebooks, workstations, thin clients, commercial mobility devices, retail point-of-sale (“POS”) systems, displays, hybrid systems (includes video conferencing solutions, cameras, headsets, voice, and related software capabilities including all products and solutions acquired from Poly), 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 (“Commercial PS”), and consumer notebooks, consumer desktops, consumer services and consumer detachables into consumer (“Consumer PS”) when describing performance in these markets. Commercial and Consumer services include support and deployment, configurations and extended warranty services.
Personal Systems groups its global business capabilities into the following business units when reporting business performance:
Commercial PS consist of endpoint computing devices and hybrid systems, for use by enterprise, public sector (which includes education), and SMB customers, with a focus on robust designs, security, serviceability, connectivity, reliability and manageability in the customer’s environment. Additionally, HP offers a range of services and solutions to enterprise, public sector (which includes education), and SMB customers to help them manage the lifecycle of their personal computers (“PCs”) and mobility installed base. 
Consumer PS consist of devices, accessories and services which are optimized for consumer usage, focusing on gaming, learning and working remotely, consuming multi-media for entertainment, managing personal life activities, staying connected, sharing information, getting things done for work including creating content and staying informed and secure.
Printing provides consumer and commercial printer hardware, supplies, services and solutions. Printing is also focused on imaging solutions in the commercial and industrial markets. Described below are HP’s global business capabilities within Printing.
Office Printing Solutions delivers HP’s office printers, supplies, services and solutions to SMBs and large enterprises. It also includes OEM hardware and solutions.
Home Printing Solutions delivers innovative printing products, supplies, services and solutions for the home, home business and micro business customers utilizing both HP’s Ink and Laser technologies.
Graphics Solutions delivers large-format, commercial and industrial solutions and supplies to print service providers and packaging converters through a wide portfolio of printers and presses (HP DesignJet, HP Latex, HP Indigo and HP PageWide Web Presses).
3D Printing & Digital Manufacturing offers a portfolio of additive manufacturing solutions and supplies to help customers succeed in their additive and digital manufacturing journey. HP offers complete solutions in collaboration with an ecosystem of partners.

Note 2: Segment Information (Continued)
Printing groups its global business capabilities into the following business units when reporting business performance:
Commercial Printing consists of office printing solutions, graphics solutions and 3D printing and digital manufacturing, excluding supplies;
Consumer Printing consists of home printing solutions, excluding supplies; and
Supplies comprises a set of highly innovative consumable products, ranging from ink and laser cartridges to media, graphics supplies, and 3D printing and digital manufacturing supplies, for recurring use in consumer and commercial hardware.
Corporate Investments includes certain business incubation and investment projects.
The accounting policies HP uses to derive segment results are substantially the same as those used by HP in preparing these financial statements. HP derives the results of the business segments directly from its internal management reporting system.
HP does not allocate certain operating expenses, which it manages at the corporate level, to its segments. These unallocated amounts include expenses such as certain corporate governance costs and infrastructure investments, stock-based compensation expense, restructuring and other charges, acquisition and divestiture charges and amortization of intangible assets.
Realignment
Effective first quarter of fiscal 2023, HP realigned the Personal Systems business units reporting structure into Commercial PS and Consumer PS to align with its customer market segmentation. Additionally, in connection with certain other organizational realignments, some costs which were earlier reflected under “Corporate and unallocated cost and other”, have now been reclassified to the Personal Systems and Printing segments.
HP has reflected these changes to its prior reporting periods on an as-if basis. The reporting change had no impact to previously reported segment net revenue, consolidated net revenue, net earnings or net earnings per share (“EPS”).

(1) Primarily includes the fiscal 2020 plan along with other legacy plans, all of which are substantially complete. HP does not expect any further material activity associated with these plans.
Fiscal 2023 Plan
On November 18, 2022, HP’s Board of Directors approved the Fiscal 2023 Plan intended to enable digital transformation, portfolio optimization and operational efficiency which HP expects will be implemented through fiscal 2025. HP expects to reduce global headcount by approximately 4,000 to 6,000 employees. 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 $0.7 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 information technology rationalization efforts, and are distinct from ongoing operational costs. These costs primarily relate to third-party professional services and other costs. For the three months ended January 31, 2023 and 2022, HP incurred $10 million and $1 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 2023, HP anticipates making contributions of approximately $36 million to its non-U.S. pension plans, approximately $32 million to its U.S. non-qualified plan participants and approximately $4 million to cover benefit claims under HP’s post-retirement benefit plans. During the three months ended January 31, 2023, HP contributed $13 million to its non-U.S. pension plans, paid $6 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 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 2023 Plan, HP announced a voluntary enhanced early retirement (EER) program for its U.S. employees in January 2023. Voluntary participation in the EER program was limited to employees at least 55 years old with 10 or more years of service at HP. Employees accepted into the EER program will leave HP on dates ranging from March 15, 2023 to October 31, 2023. The U.S. defined benefit pension plan will be amended to provide that the EER benefit will be paid from the plan for electing EER participants who are current participants in the pension plan. The retirement incentive benefit will be calculated as a lump sum based on years of service at HP at the time of retirement, ranging from 20 to 52 weeks of pay. All employees participating in the EER program are offered the opportunity to continue health care coverage at the active employee contribution rates for up to 36 months following retirement. In addition, HP is providing up to $12,000 in employer credits under the Retirement Medical Savings Account program. HP will recognize a special termination benefits expense as restructuring and other charges.

Note 5: Taxes on Earnings
Provision for Taxes
HP’s effective tax rate was 16.6% and 18.2% for the three months ended January 31, 2023 and 2022, 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, 2023 and 2022, was primarily due to tax effects of 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, 2023, HP recorded $56 million of net income tax benefits related to discrete items in the provision for taxes. These amounts included $30 million of income tax benefits related to restructuring charges, $14 million related to acquisition charges and $12 million of other net tax benefits. During the three months ended January 31, 2023, discrete items in the provision for taxes and 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, 2022, HP recorded $26 million of net income tax charges related to discrete items in the provision for taxes. These amounts included income tax charges of $39 million related to withholding taxes on undistributed foreign earnings and were partially offset by income tax benefits of $12 million related to restructuring charges for the three months ended January 31, 2022. In addition to the discrete items mentioned above, HP recorded excess tax benefits of $37 million associated with stock options, restricted stock units and performance-adjusted restricted stock units for the three months ended January 31, 2022.
Uncertain Tax Positions
As of January 31, 2023, the amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits was $1.0 billion, of which up to $807 million would affect HP’s effective tax rate if realized. Total gross unrecognized tax benefits decreased by $14 million for the three months ended January 31, 2023. 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, 2023 and 2022, HP had accrued $73 million and $75 million, respectively, for interest and penalties.
HP engages in continuous discussions and negotiations with taxing authorities regarding tax matters in various jurisdictions. HP expects 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 $51 million within the next 12 months, affecting HP’s effective tax rate if realized.
HP is subject to income tax in the United States and approximately 60 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 Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) is conducting an audit of HP’s 2018 and 2019 income tax returns.

HP utilizes certain third-party arrangements in the normal course of business as part of HPs cash and liquidity management and also to 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 similar transactions and reported as a current liability in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. The recourse obligations as of January 31, 2023 and October 31, 2022 and the costs associated with the sale of trade receivables for the three months ended January 31, 2023 and 2022 were not material.

Value of Remaining Performance Obligations
    As of January 31, 2023, the estimated value of transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations was $3.6 billion. HP expects to recognize approximately $1.7 billion of the unearned amount in next 12 months and $1.9 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.
Contract Liabilities
As of January 31, 2023 and October 31, 2022, HP’s contract liabilities balances were $2.5 billion respectively, and included in Other current liabilities and Other non-current liabilities in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets.
The contract liabilities balance remained flat as of January 31, 2023, driven by sales of fixed-price support and maintenance services, partially offset by $0.5 billion of revenue recognized that was included in the contract liabilities balance as of October 31, 2022.

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:

Note 7: Fair Value (Continued)
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 is 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: 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 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 $10.0 billion as compared to its carrying amount of $10.8 billion at January 31, 2023. The fair value of HP’s short- and long-term debt was $9.6 billion as compared to its carrying value of $11.0 billion at October 31, 2022. 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 as 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.

Non-marketable equity securities in privately held companies are included in Other non-current assets in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. These amounted to $110 million as of each of January 31, 2023 and October 31, 2022.
HP determines credit losses on cash equivalents and available-for-sale debt securities at the individual security level. All instruments are considered investment grade. No credit-related or noncredit-related impairment losses were recorded for the three months ended January 31, 2023.
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, treasury rate locks, forward starting swaps and 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.
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 Company includes gross collateral posted and received in other current assets and other current liabilities in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets, respectively. The fair value of derivatives with credit contingent features in a net liability position was $238 million and $82 million as of January 31, 2023 and as of October 31, 2022, 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, 2023 and October 31, 2022.
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 benchmark interest rates on HP’s future interest payments.
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, option contracts, treasury rate locks and forward starting swaps designated as cash flow hedges to protect against the foreign currency exchange and interest rate risks inherent in its forecasted net revenue, cost of revenue, operating expenses and debt issuance. 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) income 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 also 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, forward contracts and forward starting swaps 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.
During the three months ended January 31, 2023 and 2022, no portion of the hedging instruments’ gain or loss was excluded from the assessment of effectiveness for fair value and cash flow hedges.

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 2021 employee stock purchase plan.
A reconciliation of the number of shares used for basic and diluted net EPS calculations is as follows:

 20232022
 In millions, except per share amounts
Numerator:  
Net earnings$487 $1,086

Net earnings per share:  
Basic$0.49 $1.00 
Diluted$0.49 $0.99 
Anti-dilutive weighted-average stock-based compensation awards(1)
(1)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, 2023, 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 entered into with Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company (“Hewlett Packard Enterprise”), 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, challenging the imposition or the modification of levies regimes upon IT equipment (such as PCs or printers) or the restrictions to exonerate the application of private copying levies on devices purchased by business users. The levies are generally based upon the number of products sold and the per-product amounts of the levies, which vary. Some European countries are expected to implement legislation to introduce or extend existing levy schemes to digital devices. HP, other companies and various industry associations have opposed the extension of levies to the digital environment and certain requirements for business sales exemptions, and have advocated alternative models of compensation to rights holders. 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.
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 (“HPE”) alleging the defendants violated federal and state law by terminating older workers and replacing them with younger workers. In their most recent complaint, plaintiffs seek to represent (1) a putative nationwide federal Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA) collective comprised of all former HP Inc. employees 40 years of age and older who had their employment terminated under a WFR plan in or after 2014 or 2015, depending on state law; and (2) a putative Rule 23 class under California law comprised of all former HP Inc. employees 40 years of age and older who had their employment terminated in California under a WFR plan in or after 2012. Excluded from the putative collective and class are employees who (a) signed a Waiver and General Release Agreement at termination, or (b) signed an Agreement to Arbitrate Claims. Similar claims are pending against HPE. Because the court granted plaintiffs’ motion for preliminary certification of the putative nationwide ADEA collectives, a third-party administrator notified eligible former employees of their right to opt into the ADEA collective. This opt-in period closed on February 15, 2022. Plaintiffs seek monetary damages, punitive damages, and other relief.
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 and interest. Prior to the issuance of the 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 or interrupt business by HP India.
On April 11, 2012, the Bangalore Commissioner of Customs issued an order on the products-related 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 notice. The differential duty demand is subject to interest. On April 20, 2012, the Commissioner issued an order on the parts-related 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 notice so as to avoid certain penalties.
HP India filed appeals of the Commissioner’s orders before the Customs, Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal (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. On February 7, 2014, the Customs Tribunal granted HP India’s application for extension of the stay of deposit until disposal of the appeals. On October 27, 2014, the Customs Tribunal commenced hearings on the cross-appeals of the Commissioner’s orders and rejected HP India’s request to remand the matter to the Commissioner on procedural grounds. The Customs Tribunal cancelled hearings to reconvene in 2015, 2016 and January 2019. On January 20, 2021, the Customs Tribunal held a virtual hearing during which the judge allowed HP’s application for a physical hearing on the merits as soon as practicable, which will be scheduled when physical hearings resume at court. 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.
Philips Patent Litigation. In September 2020, Koninklijke Philips N.V. and Philips North America LLC (collectively, “Philips”) filed a complaint against HP for patent infringement in federal court for the District of Delaware and filed a companion complaint with the U.S. International Trade Commission (“ITC”) pursuant to Section 337 of the Tariff Act against HP and 8 other sets of respondents. Both complaints allege that certain digital video-capable devices and components thereof infringe four of Philips’ patents. In October 2020, the ITC instituted an investigation, and Philips later withdrew two of the four patents. On March 23, 2022, the ITC rendered a final determination that no violation of Section 337 has occurred. Philips did not appeal and elected to resume litigation with its case in federal court. Philips seeks unspecified damages and an injunction against HP, and the prior stay has been lifted.
Caltech Patent Litigation. On November 11, 2020, the California Institute of Technology (“Caltech”) filed a complaint against HP for patent infringement in the federal court for the Western District of Texas. On March 19, 2021, Caltech filed an amendment to this same complaint. The complaint as amended alleges infringement of five of Caltech’s patents, U.S. Patent Nos. 7,116,710; 7,421,032; 7,716,552; 7,916,781; and 8,284,833. The accused products are HP commercial and consumer PCs

as well as wireless printers that comply with the IEEE 802.11n, 802.11ac, and/or 802.11ax standards. Caltech seeks unspecified damages and other relief. The court stayed the case pending the decision by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in The California Inst. of Tech. v. Broadcom Ltd et al., Case No. 2020-2222, which was issued on February 4, 2022. On March 12, 2022, the parties filed a status report regarding whether the court should lift the stay, which remains pending.
In re HP Inc. Securities Litigation (Electrical Workers Pension Fund, Local 103, I.B.E.W. v. HP Inc., et al.).  On February 19, 2020, Electrical Workers Pension Fund, Local 103, I.B.E.W. filed a putative class action complaint against HP, Dion Weisler, Catherine Lesjak, and Steven Fieler in U.S. District Court in the Northern District of California. The court appointed the State of Rhode Island, Office of the General Treasurer, on behalf of the Employees’ Retirement System of Rhode Island and Iron Workers Local 580 Joint Funds as Lead Plaintiffs. Lead Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint, which additionally named as defendants Enrique Lores and Christoph Schell. HP and the named officers filed a motion to dismiss the complaint for failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted. The court granted HP’s motion to dismiss and granted plaintiffs leave to amend the complaint. Plaintiffs’ second amended complaint, which no longer names Christoph Schell as a defendant, alleges, among other things, that from February 23, 2017 to October 3, 2019, HP and the named officers violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act by making false or misleading statements about HP’s printing supplies business. It further alleges that Dion Weisler and Enrique Lores violated Sections 10(b) and 20A of the Exchange Act by allegedly selling shares of HP common stock during this period while in possession of material, non-public adverse information about HP’s printing supplies business. Plaintiffs seek compensatory damages and other relief. HP and the named officers filed a motion to dismiss the second amended complaint for failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted. On September 15, 2021, the court granted HP’s motion. Plaintiffs appealed the decision. An appellate hearing scheduled for December 5, 2022 was cancelled as the parties have reached a settlement in principle.
York County on behalf of the County of York Retirement Fund v. HP Inc., et al., and related proceedings. On November 5, 2020, York County, on behalf of the County of York Retirement Fund, filed a putative class action complaint against HP, Dion Weisler, and Catherine Lesjak in federal court in the Northern District of California. The court appointed Maryland Electrical Industry Pension Fund as Lead Plaintiff. Lead Plaintiff filed a consolidated complaint, which additionally names as defendants Enrique Lores and Richard Bailey. The complaint alleges, among other things, that from November 5, 2015 to June 21, 2016, HP and the named current and former officers 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. Plaintiffs seek compensatory damages and other relief. HP and the named officers filed a motion to dismiss the complaint for failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted. On March 3, 2022, the court granted the motion to dismiss with prejudice. Plaintiffs are appealing the decision. The appellate hearing was held on February 6, 2023. On May 17, 2021, stockholder Scott Franklin filed a derivative complaint against certain current and former officers and directors in federal court in the District of Delaware. Plaintiff purports to bring the action on behalf of HP, which he has named as a nominal defendant, and he makes substantially the same factual allegations as in the York County securities complaint, bringing claims for breach of fiduciary duty and violations of securities laws. The derivative plaintiff seeks compensatory damages, governance reforms, and other relief. By court order following stipulations by the parties, the case was transferred to the Northern District of California, and the case was stayed pending a ruling on the motion to dismiss in York County. On January 13, 2022, stockholder Gerald Lovoi filed a derivative complaint in federal court in the Northern District of California against the same current and former officers and directors named in the Franklin action. The complaint alleges the same basic claims based on the same alleged conduct as the Franklin action and seeks similar relief. By stipulation of the parties, the Lovoi action was stayed pending a ruling on the motion to dismiss in York County. Both derivative actions will remain stayed until any appeal related to the York decision has been exhausted.

Note 12: Litigation and Contingencies (Continued)
Legal Proceedings re Authentication of Supplies. Since 2016, HP has from time to time been named in civil litigation, or been the subject of government investigations, involving supplies authentication protocols used in certain HP printers in multiple geographies, including but not limited to the United States, Italy, Israel, the Netherlands, and New Zealand. The supplies authentication protocols are often referred to as Dynamic Security. The core allegations in these proceedings claim misleading or inadequate consumer notifications and permissions pertaining to the use of Dynamic Security, the installation of firmware updates, or the potential inability of cartridges with clone chips or circuitry to work in HP printers with Dynamic Security. Plaintiffs base or have based their claims on various legal theories, including but not limited to unfair competition, computer trespass, and similar statutory claims. Among other relief, Plaintiffs have sought or seek money damages and in certain cases have or may seek injunctive relief against the use or operation of Dynamic Security or relief requiring interoperability. If HP is not successful in its defense of these cases or investigations, it could be subject to damages, penalties, significant settlement demands, or injunctive relief that may be costly or may disrupt operations. Certain of these proceedings in Italy, the Netherlands and Israel have been resolved, have concluded, or have concluded subject only to HP’s pending appeal. Civil litigation filed by Digital Revolution B.V. (trading as 123Inkt) against HP Nederlands B.V., et al. (Netherlands) in March 2020, including its competition claim, remains pending. Both parties have appealed. In addition, two putative class actions have been filed against HP in federal court in California, in December 2020 and April 2022, arising out of the use of Dynamic Security firmware updates in HP Laserjet printers and HP Inkjet printers, respectively. Plaintiffs in both cases seek compensatory damages, restitution, injunctive relief against alleged unfair business practices, and other relief. The cases are in their early stages. In late 2022, the New Zealand competition authority opened an investigation regarding whether firmware updates and security measures allegedly restrict competition for cartridges for HP and non-HP branded printers and whether these practices constitute an alleged misuse of market power. HP has responded to requests for information, and there is no schedule for anticipated next steps.
Autonomy-Related Legal Matters
Investigations. As a result of the findings of an internal investigation, HP provided information to government authorities, including the U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”) related to accounting improprieties, disclosure failures and misrepresentations at Autonomy that occurred before and in connection with HP’s 2011 acquisition of Autonomy. In November 2016, a federal grand jury indicted Sushovan Hussain, former CFO of Autonomy on charges of 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 Autonomy’s true financial performance and condition. On April 30, 2018, a jury found Mr. Hussain guilty of all charges against him, and that judgment was affirmed on appeal in August 2020. In November 2018, a federal grand jury indicted Michael Lynch, former CEO of Autonomy, and Stephen Chamberlain, former VP of Finance of Autonomy. The indictment charged Mr. Lynch and Mr. Chamberlain with conspiracy to commit wire fraud and multiple counts of wire fraud. On January 28, 2022, the U.K. Home Office approved U.S. demands to have Mr. Lynch extradited to face the charges. In February 2022, Mr. Lynch sought permission to appeal, and his request is pending. 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. Trial was completed in January 2020. On May 17, 2022, the court issued its final judgment, memorializing its findings that HP succeeded in substantially all of its claims and that Messrs. Lynch and Hussein engaged in fraud, and dismissing Mr. Lynch’s counterclaim. The court deferred its assessment of damages to a later, separate judgment to be issued after further submissions, but it has indicated that damages awarded may be substantially less than is claimed. Litigation is unpredictable, and there can be no assurance that HP will recover damages or as to how any award of damages will compare with the amount claimed. 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.
Environmental
    HP is, and may become a party to, proceedings brought by U.S., state, or other governmental entities or private third parties under federal, state, local, or foreign environmental laws, including the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“CERCLA”), known as “Superfund,” or state laws similar to CERCLA. HP is also conducting

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.
Cross-Indemnifications with Hewlett Packard Enterprise
On November 1, 2015, Hewlett-Packard Company completed the separation of Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Hewlett-Packard Company’s former enterprise technology infrastructure, software, services and financing businesses. The separation and distribution agreement provides for cross-indemnities between HP and Hewlett Packard Enterprise for liabilities allocated to the respective party pursuant to the terms of such agreement. For information on cross-indemnifications with Hewlett Packard Enterprise for litigation matters, see Note 12, “Litigation and Contingencies”.
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.
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:

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 desktops and notebooks, workstations, thin clients, commercial mobility devices, retail POS systems, displays, hybrid systems (includes video conferencing solutions, cameras, headsets, voice, and related software capabilities), software, support, and services. The Printing segment provides consumer and commercial printer hardware, supplies, solutions and services. Corporate Investments include certain business incubation and investment projects.
In Personal Systems, our strategic focus is on:
profitable growth through innovation, market segmentation and simplification of our portfolio
enhanced innovation in multi-operating systems, multi-architecture, geography, customer segments and other key attributes;
investing in endpoint services and solutions. We are focused on services, including Device as a Service, as the market begins to shift to contractual solutions, and accelerating in attractive adjacencies such as hybrid systems; and
driving innovation to enable productivity and collaboration with the PCs becoming essential for hybrid work, learn and play.
We believe that we are well positioned due to our competitive product lineup along with our recent acquisitions in hybrid systems and remote-computing solutions.
In Printing, our strategic focus is on:
offering innovative printing solutions and contractual solutions to serve consumers, SMBs and large enterprises through our Instant Ink Services, HP+ and Managed Print Services solutions;
providing digital printing solutions for graphics segments and applications including commercial publishing, labels, packaging, and textiles; and
expanding our footprint in 3D printing across digital manufacturing and strategic applications.
In addition to growing our subscription business, we are also focused on rebalancing system profitability to more upfront profitable hardware sales through our product offerings including HP+ and Big Tank.
We are committed to growing our hybrid systems, gaming, workforce services and solutions, consumer subscriptions, 3D and industrial graphics businesses at a rate faster than our core business with accretive margins in the longer term. Our ability to innovate is helping us gain momentum in growth areas like hybrid systems and gaming, and we see significant opportunities to drive greater recurring revenues across Personal Systems and Printing. Our acquisition of Poly adds to our growth portfolio by bringing industry-leading video conferencing solutions, cameras, headsets, voice and software capabilities. To drive more integration across our commercial services, software and security portfolio, we have created a new Workforce Services and Solutions organization. We continue to build on strong portfolios like Instant Ink to grow our Consumer Subscription business. In Industrial Graphics, we are driving the shift from analog to digital in segments like labels and packaging. In 3D and Personalization, we are creating end-to-end solutions that can capture more value with our differentiated technology.
We continue to experience challenges that are representative of the trends and uncertainties that may affect our industry, generally, and our business and financial results, specifically, and we expect these challenges to continue in the short-term. One set of challenges relates to the current macroeconomic environment and the adverse impact on demand for certain of our products and product mix. 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, and that we expect to continue facing in the short-term, are set forth below.
In Personal Systems, we face challenges with decline in Personal Systems market due to demand softness and competitive pricing environment.
In Printing, we face challenges from non-original supplies (which includes imitation, refill, or remanufactured alternatives) and competitors with a favorable foreign currency environment. We also obtain many Printing

components from single source 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.
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, efficiencies and simplification of our product portfolio. We also continue to work on optimizing our sales coverage models, aligning our sales incentives with our strategic goals, improving channel execution and inventory, production and backlog management, strengthening our capabilities in our areas of strategic focus, effective cost management, strengthening our pricing discipline, and developing and capitalizing on market opportunities.
Macroeconomic Environment
Our business and financial performance also depend significantly on worldwide economic conditions. We face global macroeconomic challenges, particularly in light of the effects of the ongoing geopolitical conflicts in Ukraine, tensions across the Taiwan Strait, tariff-driven headwinds, uncertainty in the markets, volatility in exchange rates, inflationary trends and evolving dynamics in the global trade environment. During the first quarter of fiscal 2023, we observed significant market uncertainty, budget tightening by large enterprise for information technology hardware, lower consumer spending, inflationary pressures and a weakening U.S. dollar. These market dynamics, which we expect will continue in the short-term, have created new and different demand dynamics and have had significant impacts on our financial results.
In the first quarter of fiscal 2023, we continued to experience overall demand weakness and elevated industry wide reseller inventory, particularly in Personal Systems due to a challenging macroeconomic environment. This decline in revenue of Personal Systems is in line with market trends and we expect this to continue in the short-term. In Printing, we continued to see gradual and uneven recovery in Commercial and Consumer Printing, driven by the slow return of workers to the office. We continued to experience a competitive pricing environment, which we expect to continue in the short-term, due to the macroeconomic environment across Personal Systems and Printing. However, we are seeing improvements in logistics constraints and supply availability and expect these trends to continue. In fiscal 2023, we expect both Personal Systems and Printing markets to decline as compared to fiscal 2022.
In addition to the macroeconomic dynamics, we are exposed to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. We have a large global presence, with approximately 65% of our net revenue coming from outside the United States. As a result, our financial results can be, and particularly in recent periods have been, impacted by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. We expect foreign currency fluctuations to continue to negatively impact our financial results in the fiscal 2023.
On May 31, 2022, we announced our decision to wind down business operations in Russia having already suspended all new shipments and paused our marketing and advertising activities in February 2022. In the second half of fiscal 2022, we recognized a charge of $23 million towards severance, cancellation of contracts, inventory write-downs and other one-time exit charges related to our decision.
We typically experience higher net revenues in our fourth fiscal quarter compared to other quarters in our fiscal year due, in part, to seasonal holiday demand. Historical seasonal patterns may not continue in the future and have been impacted by supply constraints, shifts in customer behavior, continuing impacts of the macroeconomic challenges and different demand dynamics.
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 in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Transformation Update
In November 2022, we announced our Future Ready Plan (the “Fiscal 2023 Plan”) to become a more digitally enabled company, focus investments on key growth opportunities and simplify our operating model. The new Fiscal 2023 plan is expected to run for three years through end of fiscal 2025. The three key elements of our Fiscal 2023 plan are digital transformation, portfolio optimization, and operational efficiency. We expect to invest some of the savings from these efforts across our businesses to be more efficient and advance our positions in Personal Systems and Printing, while also disrupting new industries where we see attractive growth opportunities. We also plan to use some of these savings to partially offset headwinds we expect to continue to see across our businesses in fiscal 2023 as a result of macroeconomic factors.

Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
We are on-track to achieve our targeted gross annual run-rate structural cost savings by the end of fiscal 2023. During the first quarter of fiscal 2023, we continued to digitize our customer support engagement using artificial intelligence (AI) based interactive voice response technology to deliver a more seamless and connected experience. We took actions, including headcount reductions, to optimize our cost in supply chain for core Printing, and also announced a voluntary enhanced early retirement program in the United States offering employees the opportunity to early retire.
For more information on our Fiscal 2023 Plan, see Note 3, “Restructuring and Other Charges,” and 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.

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 revenue and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. As of January 31, 2023, the impact of current macroeconomic factors on our business continued to unfold. As a result, many of our estimates and assumptions required increased judgment and may carry a higher degree of variability and volatility. As events continue to evolve and additional information becomes available, our estimates may change in future periods. Management believes that there have been no significant changes during the three months ended January 31, 2023 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, 2022, except as mentioned in Note 1, “Basis of Presentation”.

ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

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 exchange rates from the comparative period and excluding any hedging impact recognized in the current period, and without adjusting 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.
Results of operations in dollars and as a percentage of net revenue were as follows:

Three months ended January 31, 2023 compared with three months ended January 31, 2022
Net Revenue
Net revenue decreased 18.8% (decreased 14.7% on a constant currency basis). U.S. net revenue decreased 16.1% to $4.7 billion, and net revenue from international operations decreased 20.1% to $9.1 billion. The decrease in net revenue was primarily driven by demand softness across Personal Systems and Supplies as well as foreign currency impacts, partially offset by an increase in Commercial Printing.
A detailed discussion of the factors contributing to the changes in segment net revenue is included in “Segment Information” below.

Table of Contents
HP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
Gross Margin
Gross margin increased by 0.4 percentage points, primarily driven by lower commodity cost, mix shift towards Printing, partially offset by foreign currency impacts and competitive pricing in Personal Systems.
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 decreased 3.6%, primarily due to lower variable compensation partially offset by the Poly acquisition and joint R&D partner funding received in the prior-year period.
Selling, General and Administrative (“SG&A”)
SG&A expense decreased 9.3%, primarily due to lower variable compensation partially offset by the Poly acquisition.
Restructuring and Other Charges
Restructuring and other charges relate primarily to the Fiscal 2023 Plan. For more information, see Note 3, “Restructuring and other charges”, to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Acquisition and divestiture charges
Acquisition and divestiture charges primarily include direct third-party professional and legal fees, integration and divestiture-related costs, non-cash adjustments to the fair value of certain acquired assets, such as inventory, and certain compensation charges related to cash settlement of restricted stock units and performance-based restricted stock units from acquisitions. Acquisition and divestiture charges increased by $64 million, primarily due to the Poly acquisition.
Amortization of Intangible Assets
Amortization of intangible assets relates primarily to intangible assets resulting from acquisitions. Amortization of intangible assets increased by $33 million, primarily due to the Poly acquisition.
Interest and Other, Net
Interest and other, net expense increased $149 million, primarily due to higher interest expense on debt.
Provision for taxes
Our effective tax rate was 16.6% and 18.2% for the three months ended January 31, 2023 and 2022, 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, 2023 and 2022, was primarily due to tax effects of favorable tax rates associated with certain earnings from our operations in lower-tax jurisdictions throughout the world.
During the three months ended January 31, 2023, we recorded $56 million of net income tax benefits related to discrete items in the provision for taxes. These amounts included $30 million of income tax benefits related to restructuring charges, $14 million related to acquisition charges and $12 million of other net tax benefits. During the three months ended January 31, 2023, discrete items in the provision for taxes and excess tax benefits associated with stock options, restricted stock units and performance-adjusted restricted stock units were immaterial.

Segment Information
During the first quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company realigned the Personal Systems business units reporting structure. This realignment had no impact to the reportable segments identified by the Company. A description of the products and services for each segment can be found in Note 2, “Segment Information” to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference. Future changes to this organizational structure may result in changes to the segments disclosed.

Three months ended January 31, 2023 compared with three months ended January 31, 2022
Personal Systems net revenue decreased 24.4% (decreased 19.7% on a constant currency basis) for the three months ended January 31, 2023. The net revenue decrease was primarily due to 27.9% decrease in commercial and consumer client PCs unit volume due to demand softness, partially offset by increase in revenue driven by the Poly acquisition. The average selling price (“ASPs”) remained flat, primarily due to foreign currency impacts, offset by mix shifts.
Commercial PS net revenue decreased 18.2% primarily driven by unit decline due to demand softness, and foreign currency impacts, partially offset by increase in hybrid systems revenue driven by the Poly acquisition.
Consumer PS net revenue decreased 35.8% driven by unit decline due to demand softness and lower ASPs. The lower ASPs were driven by foreign currency impacts and competitive pricing, partially offset by mix shifts.
Personal Systems earnings from operations as a percentage of net revenue decreased by 2.4 percentage points. The decrease was driven by a decline in gross margin and an increase in operating expenses as a percentage of revenue. The gross margin decreased primarily due to foreign currency impacts and competitive pricing, partially offset by lower commodity costs. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenue increased primarily driven by joint R&D partner funding received in the prior-year period and acquisition of Poly, partially offset by lower variable compensation.

Three months ended January 31, 2023 compared with three months ended January 31, 2022
Printing net revenue decreased 4.5% (decreased 2.2% on a constant currency basis) for the three months ended January 31, 2023. The decrease in net revenue was driven by Supplies and foreign currency impacts, partially offset by Commercial Printing. Net revenue for Supplies decreased 6.9%, primarily due to softening demand driven by market trends. Print hardware ASPs decreased 1.0% and unit volume increased 1.7%. Print hardware ASPs decreased primarily due to foreign currency impacts and mix shifts, partially offset by disciplined pricing in Commercial Printing. The increase in printer unit volume was primarily driven by unit increase in Consumer Printing partially offset by unit decrease in Commercial Printing.
Net revenue for Commercial Printing increased by 1.6%, primarily due to 13.5% increase in ASPs, partially offset by 7.5% decrease in printer unit volume. The increase in ASPs was primarily driven by disciplined pricing and mix shifts, partially offset by foreign currency impacts.
Net revenue for Consumer Printing decreased 3.5%, primarily due to 6.4% decrease in ASPs, partially offset by 3.4% increase in printer unit volume. The decrease in ASPs was primarily driven by foreign currency impacts and competitive pricing.
Printing earnings from operations as a percentage of net revenue increased by 0.8 percentage points. The increase was driven by a lower operating expenses as a percentage of revenue, partially offset by a decline in gross margin. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased primarily due to lower variable compensation, R&D spend in innovation, and go-to-market initiative expenses. The decline in gross margin is primarily driven by mix shifts and foreign currency impacts.
Corporate Investments
The loss from operations in Corporate Investments for the three months ended January 31, 2023, was primarily due to expenses associated with our incubation projects and investments in digital enablement.

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 the credit facilities 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 for the foreseeable future. Additionally, if suitable acquisition opportunities arise, the Company may obtain all or a portion of the required financing 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 in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022 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.
Amounts held outside of the U.S. are generally utilized to support non-U.S. liquidity needs and may from time to time be distributed to the U.S. Repatriations of amounts held outside the U.S. generally will not be taxable from a U.S. federal tax perspective but may be subject to state income or foreign withholding tax 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.

Net cash used in investing activities(435)(280)
Net cash used in financing activities(925)(2,282)
Net decrease in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash$(1,376)$(905)
Operating Activities
Compared to the corresponding period in fiscal year 2022, net cash provided by operating activities decreased by $1.7 billion for the three months ended January 31, 2023, primarily due to unfavorable working capital changes and lower net earnings, partially offset by amounts collected and held on behalf of a third party for trade receivables previously sold and lower employee variable compensation payments.
Key Working Capital Metrics
Management utilizes current cash conversion cycle information to manage our working capital level. Our working capital metrics and cash conversion cycle impacts were as follows:
 As ofAs of
 January 31, 2023October 31, 2022ChangeJanuary 31, 2022October 31, 2021ChangeY/Y Change
Days of sales outstanding in accounts receivable (“DSO”)28 28 — 27 30 (3)

Cash conversion cycle(22)(29)(33)(25)(8)11 
January 31, 2023 as compared to January 31, 2022
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 historical trends include, but are not limited to, changes in business mix, changes in payment terms and timing, extent of receivables factoring, macroeconomic factors, 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 credit losses, by a 90-day average net revenue. The increase in DSO was primarily due to unfavorable revenue linearity, partially offset by higher factoring.
46

Table of Contents
HP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
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 goods sold. The increase in DOS was primarily due to higher inventory in Print, offset by lower inventory in Personal Systems.
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 goods sold. The decrease in DPO was primarily due to lower purchasing volume in Personal Systems.
Investing Activities
Compared to the corresponding period in fiscal year 2022, net cash used in investing activities increased by $0.2 billion for the three months ended January 31, 2023, primarily due to collateral posted for derivatives instruments of $0.3 billion, partially offset by decrease in net investment in property, plant and equipment of $0.1 billion.
Financing Activities
Compared to the corresponding period in fiscal year 2022, net cash used in financing activities decreased by $1.4 billion for the three months ended January 31, 2023, primarily due to lower share repurchases of $1.4 billion and short term borrowing activity of $0.6 billion, partially offset by debt repurchase/redemption and settlement of $0.5 billion.
Share Repurchases and Dividends
During the three months ended January 31, 2023, HP returned $0.4 billion to the shareholders in the form of share repurchases of $0.1 billion and cash dividends of $0.3 billion. As of January 31, 2023, HP had approximately $2.0 billion remaining under the share repurchase authorizations approved by HP’s Board of Directors.
For more information on our share repurchases, see Note 10, “Stockholders’ Deficit”, to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.
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. Depending on these factors, we may, from time to time, incur additional indebtedness or refinance existing indebtedness. Outstanding borrowings decreased to $10.8 billion as of January 31, 2023 as compared to $11.0 billion as of October 31, 2022, bearing weighted-average interest rates of 3.9% and 3.7% for January 31, 2023 and October 31, 2022, respectively.
Our weighted-average interest rate reflects the effective interest 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, 2023, we maintained the 5-year sustainability-linked senior unsecured committed revolving credit facility with aggregate lending commitments of $5.0 billion which will be available until May 26, 2026. Funds borrowed under the revolving credit facility may be used for general corporate purposes.
Available Borrowing Resources
As of January 31, 2023, we had available borrowing resources of $975 million from uncommitted lines of credit in addition to the revolving credit facility.
In December 2022, we filed a non-automatic shelf registration statement (the “2022 Shelf Registration Statement”) with the SEC to enable us, once the 2022 Shelf Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC, to offer for sale, from time to time, in one or more offerings, $3.0 billion, in the aggregate, of debt securities, common stock, preferred stock, depository shares and warrants.
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 they obtain during our ongoing discussions. While we currently do not have any rating downgrade triggers that would accelerate the maturity of a material amount of our debt, a downgrade from our current credit rating may increase the cost of borrowing under our credit facility, reduce market capacity for our commercial paper, require the posting of additional collateral under some of our derivative contracts and may have a negative impact on our liquidity and capital position,
47

Table of Contents

depending on the extent of such downgrade. 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, 2023, we anticipate making contributions for the remainder of fiscal year 2023 of approximately $23 million to our non-U.S. pension plans, $26 million to cover benefit payments to U.S. non-qualified pension plan participants and $3 million to cover benefit claims for our post-retirement benefit plans. Our policy is to fund our pension plans so that we meet 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, we expect to make future cash payments of approximately $0.7 billion. We expect to make future cash payments of $0.3 billion in fiscal year 2023 with remaining cash payments through fiscal year 2025. 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, 2023, we had approximately $628 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.
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 entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes.
HP utilizes certain third-party arrangements in the normal course of business as part of HPs cash and liquidity management and also to provide liquidity to certain partners to facilitate their working capital requirements. For more information on our third-party short-term financing arrangements, see Note 6, “Supplementary Financial Information”, to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.

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, 2022. Our exposure to market risk has not changed materially since October 31, 2022.
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 the quarter ended January 31, 2023 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

The Company’s share repurchase program, which does not have a specific expiration date, authorizes repurchases in the open market or in private transactions. On February 22, 2020, HP’s Board of Directors increased HP’s remaining share repurchase authorization to $15.0 billion in total. All share repurchases settled in the first quarter of fiscal year 2023 were open market transactions. As of January 31, 2023, HP had approximately $2.0 billion remaining under the share repurchase authorizations. From time-to-time HP intends to repurchase shares opportunistically and to offset the dilution created by shares issued under employee stock plans.

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
1



(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 12 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 the Employee 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. The Company’s obligation to vest the RSUs under this paragraph 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 no later than the date immediately prior to the date of the Employee’s termination of employment, (ii) the Employee has not engaged in any conduct that creates a conflict of interest in the opinion of the Company during the Employee’s active employment with the Company, and (iii) the Employee is in compliance with any-post employment restrictions in the ARCIPD during the period in which the RSU remains outstanding.

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.Termination for Cause.
Upon termination of the Employee’s employment for Cause (as defined in the Plan), then all unvested RSUs shall be forfeited by the Employee on the date of the Employee’s termination, except to the extent a severance plan applicable to the Employee provides otherwise. Such forfeiture shall occur regardless of whether the Employee has satisfied any applicable age and service requirements for retirement.

11.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
2



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.

12.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 12, 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 11, 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 12. The Employee further agrees to execute any other consents or elections required to accomplish the above, promptly upon request of the Company.

13.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
3



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 the Employee 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 the Employee’s local human resources representative. Further, the Employee understands that the Employee is providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis. If the Employee does not consent, or if the Employee later seeks to revoke the Employee’s consent, the Employee's employment status or service with the Company or the Employee’s 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 the Employee’s 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 the Employee may contact the Employee’s 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 the Employee may be unable to participate in the Plan if the Employee 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 13 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.

14.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 https://investor.hp.com/home/default.aspx. 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.

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

(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;

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
1



(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 12 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 the Employee 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. The Company’s obligation to vest the RSUs under this paragraph 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 no later than the date immediately prior to the date of the Employee’s termination of employment, (ii) the Employee has not engaged in any conduct that creates a conflict of interest in the opinion of the Company during the Employee’s active employment with the Company, and (iii) the Employee is in compliance with any-post employment restrictions in the ARCIPD during the period in which the RSU remains outstanding.

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.Termination for Cause.
Upon termination of the Employee’s employment for Cause (as defined in the Plan), then all unvested RSUs shall be forfeited by the Employee on the date of the Employee’s termination, except to the extent a severance plan applicable to the Employee provides otherwise. Such forfeiture shall occur regardless of whether the Employee has satisfied any applicable age and service requirements for retirement.

11.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
2



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.

12.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 12, 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 11, 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 12. The Employee further agrees to execute any other consents or elections required to accomplish the above, promptly upon request of the Company.

13.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
3



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 the Employee 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 the Employee’s local human resources representative. Further, the Employee understands that the Employee is providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis. If the Employee does not consent, or if the Employee later seeks to revoke the Employee’s consent, the Employee's employment status or service with the Company or the Employee’s 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 the Employee’s 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 the Employee may contact the Employee’s 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 the Employee may be unable to participate in the Plan if the Employee 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 13 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.

14.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 https://investor.hp.com/home/default.aspx. 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.

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

(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;

Non-Qualified Stock Option

    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 a non-qualified stock option to purchase the number of shares stated above of its $0.01 par value voting Common Stock (“Shares”) upon the terms and conditions set forth herein and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Plan named above, 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 can also 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 Stock Options.
This non-qualified Stock Option is granted under and pursuant to the Plan and is subject to each and all of the provisions thereof.
2.Grant Price.
The Grant Price is the price per Share set forth above.            
3.Restrictions on Transfer.
This Stock Option is not transferable by the Employee otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and is exercisable only by the Employee during the Employee’s lifetime. This Stock Option may not be transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated by the Employee during the Employee’s lifetime, whether by operation of law or otherwise, and is not subject to execution, attachment or similar process.
4.Vesting Schedule.
This Stock Option will vest and become exercisable according to the vesting schedule set forth above except as otherwise provided in this Grant Agreement and except to the extent a severance plan applicable to the Employee provides otherwise, subject to the Employee’s compliance with the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Grant Agreement.
5.Expiration Date.
This Stock Option will expire on the 10th anniversary of the Grant Date set forth above ("Expiration Date"), unless sooner terminated or canceled in accordance with the provisions of the Plan and this Grant Agreement. The Employee must exercise this Stock Option, if at all, on a day the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading and on or before the Expiration Date. The Employee shall be solely responsible for exercising this Stock Option, if at all, prior to its Expiration Date. The Company shall have no obligation to notify the Employee of this Stock Option’s expiration.

6.Method of Exercise.
This Stock Option, to the extent it is then vested and exercisable, may be exercised through a broker designated by the Company or by any other method the Committee has approved; provided, however, that no such exercise shall be with respect to fewer than twenty-five (25) Shares or the remaining Shares covered by the Stock Option if less than twenty-five. The exercise must be accompanied by the payment of the full Grant Price of such Shares and any Tax-Related Items withholding. Payment may be in cash or Shares or a combination thereof to the extent permissible under Applicable Law, or through a broker-assisted cashless
1


exercise; provided, however, that any payment in Shares shall be in strict compliance with all procedural rules established by the Committee.
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, all unvested Shares shall be forfeited by the Employee as of the date of termination and the Employee may exercise the Stock Option, to the extent that it is then vested, within three months after the date of the Employee’s termination (but in no event later than the Expiration Date), 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 the Employee 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.Death of Employee.
Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4 of this Grant Agreement, in the event of the Employee's death this Stock Option shall vest in full and the Employee’s legal representative or designated beneficiary shall have the right to exercise all or a portion of the Employee's rights under this Grant Agreement within one year after the death of the Employee, and shall be bound by the provisions of the Plan. In all cases, however, this Stock Option will expire no later than the Expiration Date.
9.Disability or Retirement of the Employee.
Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4 of this Grant Agreement, in the event of the Employee’s termination due to retirement in accordance with the applicable retirement policy, or permanent and total disability, this Stock Option shall vest in full and the Employee may exercise the Employee’s rights under this Grant Agreement within three years from the date of termination. In all cases, however, this Stock Option will expire no later than the Expiration Date. The Company’s obligation to vest the Stock Option under this paragraph 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 no later than the date immediately prior to the date of the Employee’s termination of employment, (ii) the Employee has not engaged in any conduct that creates a conflict of interest in the opinion of the Company during the Employee’s active employment with the Company and any-post employment period during which the Stock Option remains outstanding and (iii) the Employee is in compliance with any-post employment restrictions in the ARCIPD during the period in which the Stock Option remains outstanding.

10.Termination for Cause.
Upon termination of the Employee’s employment for Cause (as defined in the Plan), then, except as provided in Section 17(a), all unvested Shares shall be forfeited by the Employee and the Employee may exercise the Stock Option, to the extent that it is then vested, before the New York Stock Exchange closes on the date of the Employee’s termination, except to the extent a severance plan applicable to the Employee provides otherwise. Such forfeiture shall occur regardless of whether the Employee has satisfied any applicable age and service requirements for retirement.

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, exercise, 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 form employer) is required, allowed or permitted to withhold taxes as a result of the grant, vesting or exercise of the Stock Options, or subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such Stock Options, the Employee shall 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 Applicable Law, the Company may sell or arrange for the sale of Shares that Employee acquires as necessary to cover all applicable required withholding Tax-Related Items that are legally recoverable from the Employee at the time of the tax withholding event, unless the Company, in its sole discretion, has established alternative procedures for such payment. 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 Stock Options, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting, exercise or settlement of the Stock Options, the subsequent issuance of Shares and/or cash upon settlement of such Stock Options or the subsequent sale of any Shares acquired pursuant to such Stock Options and receipt of any dividends; and (ii) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms or any aspect of this grant of Stock Options 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 (or former employer, as applicable) 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 exercised Stock Options, notwithstanding that a number of the shares of Common Stock are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items.

2


(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, vesting or exercise of Stock Options or subsequent sale of the Shares acquired on exercise, or at any other time, that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to deliver the benefit described herein if the Employee fails to comply with the Employee’s obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.

(e)In accepting the Stock Option, the Employee consents and agrees that in the event the Stock Option becomes 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 Stock Option. Further, by accepting the Stock Option, 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.

(d)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, insofar as permitted by Applicable Law;
(e)the Employee is participating voluntarily in the Plan;

(f)Stock Options and their resulting benefits are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation;

(g)Stock Options 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, long-service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar payments insofar as permitted by Applicable Law and in no event should be considered as compensation for, or relating in any way to, past services for the Company, the Employer or any Subsidiary or Affiliate;

(k)no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from forfeiture of the Stock Options resulting from termination of Employee’s employment by the Company or the Employer (for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of local labor laws), and in consideration of the grant of the Stock Options to which the Employee is otherwise not entitled, the Employee irrevocably agrees never to institute any claim against the Company or the Employer and releases the Company and the Employer 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;

(l)notwithstanding any terms or conditions of the Plan to the contrary, in the event of termination of the Employee’s employment (whether or not in breach of local labor laws), the Employee’s right to exercise or otherwise to receive benefits under this Grant Agreement after termination of employment, if any, will be measured by the date of termination of Employee’s active employment and will not be extended by any notice period mandated under local law (e.g., active employment would not include a period of “garden leave” or similar period pursuant to local law); the Committee shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when the Employee is no longer actively employed for purposes of the Stock Options;

(m)neither the Company, the Employer, nor any Subsidiary or Affiliate will 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 Stock Options or any amounts due to the Employee pursuant to the settlement of the Stock Options or the subsequent sale of any Shares acquired upon settlement; and

(n)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 and to the extent permitted under Applicable Law, (a) recover from the Employee the proceeds from Stock Options exercised up to three years prior to the Employee’s termination of employment or any time thereafter, (b) cancel the Employee’s outstanding Stock Options whether or not vested, and (c) take any other action required or permitted by Applicable Law.

13.Data Privacy Consent.

3


(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 restricted stock units, Stock 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 the Employee 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 the Employee’s local human resources representative. Further, the Employee understands that the Employee is providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis. If the Employee does not consent, or if the Employee later seeks to revoke the Employee’s consent, the Employee's employment status or service with the Company or the Employee’s 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 Stock Units or other equity awards or administer and manage the Employee’s participation in the Plan. Therefore, the Employee understands that refusing or withdrawing the Employee’s 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 the Employee may contact the Employee’s 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 the Employee may be unable to participate in the Plan if the Employee fails to execute any such acknowledgement, agreement or consent requested by the Company and/or a Subsidiary or Affiliate.

By electronically accepting Stock Units 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.

14.No Advice Regarding Grant.
The Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding the Employee’s participation in the Plan, or the Employee’s acquisition or sale of the underlying Shares. The Employee is hereby advised to consult with the Employee’s own personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding the Employee’s participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan.

15.Plan Information.
The Employee agrees to receive copies of the Plan, the Plan prospectus and other Plan information, including information prepared to comply with 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. 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 another third party designated by the Company.

16.Additional Eligibility Requirements Permitted.
In addition to any other eligibility criteria provided for in the Plan, the Company may require that the Employee execute a separate document agreeing to the terms of a current arbitration agreement and/or a current ARCIPD, each in a form acceptable to the Company and/or that the Employee be in compliance with the ARCIPD throughout the entire exercise period. If such separate documents are required by the Company and the Employee does not accept them within 75 days of the Grant Date set forth above or such other date as of which the Company shall require in its discretion, this Stock Option shall be canceled and the Employee shall have no further rights under this Grant Agreement.

17.Miscellaneous.
(a)The Plan is incorporated herein by reference.

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.

(e)The Employee acknowledges that, depending on the Employee or 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 acquire, sell or otherwise dispose of Shares or rights to Shares during times the Employee is considered to have “inside information” regarding the Company (as defined by the laws in the Employee’s country). Local insider trading laws and regulations may prohibit the cancellation or amendment of orders the Employee placed before the Employee possessed inside information. Furthermore, the Employee cold be prohibited from (i) disclosing the inside information to any third party (other than on a “need to know” basis) and (ii) “tipping” third parties or causing them otherwise to buy or sell securities. Keep in mind 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 the Employee’s responsibility to comply with any applicable restrictions and that the Employee should to consult the Employee’s personal advisor on this matter.

Non-Qualified Stock Option

    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 a non-qualified stock option to purchase the number of shares stated above of its $0.01 par value voting Common Stock (“Shares”) upon the terms and conditions set forth herein and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Plan named above, 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 can also 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 Stock Options.
This non-qualified Stock Option is granted under and pursuant to the Plan and is subject to each and all of the provisions thereof.
2.Grant Price.
The Grant Price is the price per Share set forth above.            
3.Restrictions on Transfer.
This Stock Option is not transferable by the Employee otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and is exercisable only by the Employee during the Employee’s lifetime. This Stock Option may not be transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated by the Employee during the Employee’s lifetime, whether by operation of law or otherwise, and is not subject to execution, attachment or similar process.
4.Vesting Schedule.
This Stock Option will vest and become exercisable according to the vesting schedule set forth above except as otherwise provided in this Grant Agreement and except to the extent a severance plan applicable to the Employee provides otherwise, subject to the Employee’s compliance with the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Grant Agreement.
5.Expiration Date.
This Stock Option will expire on the 10th anniversary of the Grant Date set forth above ("Expiration Date"), unless sooner terminated or canceled in accordance with the provisions of the Plan and this Grant Agreement. The Employee must exercise this Stock Option, if at all, on a day the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading and on or before the Expiration Date. The Employee shall be solely responsible for exercising this Stock Option, if at all, prior to its Expiration Date. The Company shall have no obligation to notify the Employee of this Stock Option’s expiration.

6.Method of Exercise.
This Stock Option, to the extent it is then vested and exercisable, may be exercised through a broker designated by the Company or by any other method the Committee has approved; provided, however, that no such exercise shall be with respect to fewer than twenty-five (25) Shares or the remaining Shares covered by the Stock Option if less than twenty-five. The exercise must be accompanied by the payment of the full Grant Price of such Shares and any Tax-Related Items withholding. Payment may be in cash or Shares or a combination thereof to the extent permissible under Applicable Law, or through a broker-assisted cashless exercise; provided, however, that any payment in Shares shall be in strict compliance with all procedural rules established by the Committee.

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, all unvested Shares shall be forfeited by the Employee as of the date of termination and the Employee may exercise the Stock Option, to the extent that it is then vested, within three months after the date of the Employee’s termination (but in no event later than the Expiration Date), 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 the Employee 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.Death of Employee.
Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4 of this Grant Agreement, in the event of the Employee's death this Stock Option shall vest in full and the Employee’s legal representative or designated beneficiary shall have the right to exercise all or a portion of the Employee's rights under this Grant Agreement within one year after the death of the Employee, and shall be bound by the provisions of the Plan. In all cases, however, this Stock Option will expire no later than the Expiration Date.
9.Disability of the Employee.
Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4 of this Grant Agreement, in the event of the Employee’s termination due to permanent and total disability, this Stock Option shall vest in full and the Employee may exercise the Employee’s rights under this Grant Agreement within three years from the date of termination. In all cases, however, this Stock Option will expire no later than the Expiration Date. The Company’s obligation to vest the Stock Option under this paragraph 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 no later than the date immediately prior to the date of the Employee’s termination of employment, (ii) the Employee has not engaged in any conduct that creates a conflict of interest in the opinion of the Company during the Employee’s active employment with the Company and any-post employment period during which the Stock Option remains outstanding and (iii) the Employee is in compliance with any-post employment restrictions in the ARCIPD during the period in which the Stock Option remains outstanding.

10.Termination for Cause.
Upon termination of the Employee’s employment for Cause (as defined in the Plan), then, except as provided in Section 17(a), all unvested Shares shall be forfeited by the Employee and the Employee may exercise the Stock Option, to the extent that it is then vested, before the New York Stock Exchange closes on the date of the Employee’s termination, except to the extent a severance plan applicable to the Employee provides otherwise. Such forfeiture shall occur regardless of whether the Employee has satisfied any applicable age and service requirements for retirement.

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, exercise, 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 form employer) is required, allowed or permitted to withhold taxes as a result of the grant, vesting or exercise of the Stock Options, or subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such Stock Options, the Employee shall 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 Applicable Law, the Company may sell or arrange for the sale of Shares that Employee acquires as necessary to cover all applicable required withholding Tax-Related Items that are legally recoverable from the Employee at the time of the tax withholding event, unless the Company, in its sole discretion, has established alternative procedures for such payment. 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 Stock Options, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting, exercise or settlement of the Stock Options, the subsequent issuance of Shares and/or cash upon settlement of such Stock Options or the subsequent sale of any Shares acquired pursuant to such Stock Options and receipt of any dividends; and (ii) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms or any aspect of this grant of Stock Options 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 (or former employer, as applicable) 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 exercised Stock Options, 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,
2


vesting or exercise of Stock Options or subsequent sale of the Shares acquired on exercise, or at any other time, that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to deliver the benefit described herein if the Employee fails to comply with the Employee’s obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.

(e)In accepting the Stock Option, the Employee consents and agrees that in the event the Stock Option becomes 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 Stock Option. Further, by accepting the Stock Option, 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.

(l)notwithstanding any terms or conditions of the Plan to the contrary, in the event of termination of the Employee’s employment (whether or not in breach of local labor laws), the Employee’s right to exercise or otherwise to receive benefits under this Grant Agreement after termination of employment, if any, will be measured by the date of termination of Employee’s active employment and will not be extended by any notice period mandated under local law (e.g., active employment would not include a period of “garden leave” or similar period pursuant to local law); the Committee shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when the Employee is no longer actively employed for purposes of the Stock Options;

(m)neither the Company, the Employer, nor any Subsidiary or Affiliate will 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 Stock Options or any amounts due to the Employee pursuant to the settlement of the Stock Options or the subsequent sale of any Shares acquired upon settlement; and

3


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 restricted stock units, Stock 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 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 the Employee 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 the Employee’s local human resources representative. Further, the Employee understands that the Employee is providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis. If the Employee does not consent, or if the Employee later seeks to revoke the Employee’s consent, the Employee's employment status or service with the Company or the Employee’s 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 Stock Units or other equity awards or administer and manage the Employee’s participation in the Plan. Therefore, the Employee understands that refusing or withdrawing the Employee’s 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 the Employee may contact the Employee’s 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.

The Employee understands that the Employee may be unable to participate in the Plan if the Employee fails to execute any such acknowledgement, agreement or consent requested by the Company and/or a Subsidiary or Affiliate.

By electronically accepting Stock Units 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.

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 300% 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.




Exhibit A provides more details on the relative TSR calculation.

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, 200% if performance is above target, and 300% 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 150% (the sum of 50%, 200%, and 200%, divided by 3). Accordingly, the Adjusted EPS Units would be equal to 150% 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 (lower than 25th percentile), the Adjusted EPS Units will be reduced by 50% (but not below 0% of target) (using the example above, 150%-50% = 100%); if relative TSR is in the top quartile (higher than 75th percentile), the Adjusted EPS Units will be increased by 50% (capped at 300% of target) (using the example above, 150%+50% = 200%); if relative TSR performance is in the second or third quartile (from 25th percentile to 75th percentile), no additional adjustment will be made to the Adjusted EPS Units (using the example above, Adjusted EPS units will be at 150%). In no case may the total number of units exceed 300% of the Target Amount, excluding the effect of dividend equivalents.

(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 12 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.

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
2


Items in accordance with Section 14 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 36-month Performance Period based on actual performance as determined in accordance with Sections 3(a) and/or 3(b). Pro rata vesting shall be based on the number of full months elapsed from the beginning of the performance period to the date of the Employee’s termination due to retirement. 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 no later than the date immediately prior to the date of the Employee’s termination of employment, (ii) the Employee has not engaged in any conduct that creates a conflict of interest in the opinion of the Company during the Employee’s active employment with the Company and any-post employment period during which the PARSU remains outstanding, and (iii) the Employee is in compliance with any-post employment restrictions in the ARCIPD during the period in which the PARSU remains outstanding.
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 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 (i) the Employee shall have executed a current Agreement Regarding Confidential Information and Proprietary Developments (“ARCIPD”) that is satisfactory to the Company no later than the date immediately prior to the date of the Employee’s termination of employment, (ii) the Employee has not engaged in any conduct that creates a conflict of interest in the opinion of the Company during the Employee’s active employment with the Company and any-post employment period during which the PARSU remains outstanding and (iii) the Employee is in compliance with any-post employment restrictions in the ARCIPD during the period in which the PARSU remains outstanding.

12.Termination for Cause.

Upon termination of the Employee’s employment for Cause (as defined in the Plan), then all unvested PARSUs shall be forfeited by the Employee on the date of the Employee’s termination, except to the extent a severance plan applicable to the Employee provides otherwise. Such forfeiture shall occur regardless of whether the Employee has satisfied any applicable age and service requirements for retirement.

13.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
3


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.

14.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 14, 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.

(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 13, 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 14. The Employee further agrees to execute any other consents or elections required to accomplish the above, promptly upon request of the Company.

15.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 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.

(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 PARSUs on the Merrill Lynch website, the Employee is declaring that the Employee agrees with the data processing practices described in this Section 15 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.

16.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. 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.

In addition to any other eligibility criteria provided for in the Plan, the Company may require that the Employee execute a separate document agreeing to the terms of a current arbitration agreement and/or a current ARCIPD, each in a form acceptable to the Company and/or that the Employee be in compliance with the ARCIPD throughout the entire Performance Period. If such separate documents are required by the Company and the Employee does not accept them within 75 days of the Grant Date or such other date as of which the Company shall require in its discretion, the PARSUs shall be canceled and the Employee shall have no further rights under this Grant Agreement.

20.Insider Trading Policy.

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.

21.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.

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 21(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.

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)All rights granted and/or Shares issued under this Grant Agreement are subject to claw back under the Company policy as in effect from time to time.

(k)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.

(l)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.

(m)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.

Exhibit A


TOTAL SHAREHOLDER RETURN (TSR) CALCULATION

PEER GROUP

The peer group consists of the companies that are included in the Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”) 500 index, with at least three months of trading history, at the beginning of the Performance Period on November 1, 2022 (“TSR Peer Group”, each a “Peer Company”).

(a)If a Peer Company is removed from the S&P 500 index during the Performance Period but remains a publicly traded company, then such company will remain in the TSR Peer Group.
(b)In the event of a bankruptcy, liquidation or delisting of a Peer Company at any time during the Performance Period, such company shall remain a Peer Company and be assigned a TSR of negative one hundred percent (-100%). Delisting shall mean that a company ceases to be publicly traded on a national securities exchange as a result of any involuntary failure to meet the listing requirements of such national securities exchange, but shall not include delisting as a result of any voluntary going-private or similar transaction.
(c)If a Peer Company is acquired by another company, including through a management buy-out or going-private transaction, and the Peer Company is not the surviving entity or is otherwise no longer publicly traded after the transaction, then the acquired Peer Company will be removed from the TSR Peer Group for the entire Performance Period; provided, however, that if the acquired Peer Company became bankrupt or became delisted prior to its acquisition it shall be treated as provided in paragraph (b) above.
(d)If a Peer Company spins off a portion of its business in a manner which results in the Peer Company and the spin-off company both being publicly traded, the Peer Company will remain in the TSR Peer Group, and the spin-off company’s value will be included in the Peer Company’s TSR calculation as a “special dividend” and reinvested in the Peer Company’s stock.
(e)If a Peer Company acquires another company, and the Peer Company continues to be the surviving entity after the transaction, then the acquiring Peer Company will remain in the TSR Peer Group for the Performance Period.
(f)If the Company’s or any Peer Company’s stock splits (or if there are other similar subdivisions, consolidations or changes in such company’s stock or capitalization), such company’s TSR performance will be adjusted for the stock split so as not to give an advantage or disadvantage to such company by comparison to other companies in the TSR Peer Group.

The Committee shall have the authority, or delegate such authority, to make all determinations regarding the adjustment of the TSR goal, including, but not limited to, the extent of achievement, and any adjustments to the calculation of TSR or the treatment of Peer Companies, as necessary or appropriate.

TSR CALCULATION

The final payout of PARSUs will be determined based on the Adjusted EPS Units, as further adjusted based upon performance against the TSR goal. The TSR goal is based upon the Company’s TSR ranking relative to the TSR Peer Group for the Performance Period.

Company’s Relative TSR Performance RankPayout Modifier or Adjustment
<25th percentile
of the TSR Peer Group
-50% to the final 3-year average EPS performance
25th to 75th percentile
of the TSR Peer Group
No adjustment to the final 3-year average EPS performance
>75th percentile
of the TSR Peer Group
+50% to the final 3-year average EPS performance

The TSR shall be calculated as follows, where:
“Beginning Stock Price” shall mean the average closing stock price in the calendar month prior to the start of the Performance Period (October 2022)
“Ending Stock Price” shall mean the average closing stock price in the last calendar month of the Performance Period (October 2025)
“Reinvested Dividends” shall mean the dividends paid with respect to an ex-dividend date that occurs beginning from the date when the Beginning Stock Price is measured through the end of the Performance Period (whether or not the dividend payment date occurs during such period), which shall be deemed to have been reinvested in the underlying common shares.

TSR = Ending Stock Price – Beginning Stock Price + Reinvested Dividends
                                Beginning Stock Price

Performance-Contingent Non-Qualified Stock Option

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 a non-qualified stock option (“Stock Option”) to purchase the number of shares stated above of its $0.01 par value voting Common Stock (“Shares”) upon the terms and conditions set forth herein and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Plan named above, 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 can also 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 Stock Options.
This Stock Option is granted under and pursuant to the Plan and is subject to each and all of the provisions thereof.
2.Grant Price.
The Grant Price is the price per Share set forth above.
3.Restrictions on Transfer.
This Stock Option is not transferable by the Employee otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and is exercisable only by the Employee during his or her lifetime. This Stock Option may not be transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated by the Employee during his or her lifetime, whether by operation of law or otherwise, and is not subject to execution, attachment or similar process.
4.Vesting Schedule.
This Stock Option will vest and become exercisable according to the vesting schedule set forth below except as otherwise provided in this Grant Agreement and except to the extent a severance plan applicable to the Employee provides otherwise, subject to the Employee’s compliance with the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Grant Agreement.
(a)This Stock Option shall vest, if at all, as to one-third of the Shares thereunder (“First Tranche”) upon the satisfaction of both of the following criteria prior to the expiration of the Stock Option: (i) the Employee’s continued employment on the first anniversary of the Grant Date (“First Tranche Service Component”), and (ii) subject to the Employee’s continued employment on such date, the first date that the closing Share price on the New York Stock Exchange has met or exceeded 115% of the Grant Price set forth above for at least 20 consecutive trading days within three years after the Grant Date (“First Tranche Share Price Component”); and



(b)This Stock Option shall vest, if at all, as to one-third of the Shares thereunder (“Second Tranche”) upon the satisfaction of both of the following criteria prior to the expiration of the Stock Option: (i) the Employee’s continued employment on the second anniversary of the Grant Date (“Second Tranche Service Component”), and (ii) subject to the Employee’s continued employment on such date, the first date that the closing Share price on the New York Stock Exchange has met or exceeded 120% of the Grant Price set forth above for at least 20 consecutive trading days within four years after the Grant Date (“Second Tranche Share Price Component”); and
(c)This Stock Option shall vest, if at all, as to one-third of the Shares thereunder (“Third Tranche”) upon the satisfaction of both of the following criteria prior to the expiration of the Stock Option: (i) the Employee’s continued employment on the third anniversary of the Grant Date (“Third Tranche Service Component”), and (ii) the first date that the closing Share price on the New York Stock Exchange has met or exceeded 130% of the Grant Price set forth above for at least 20 consecutive trading days within five years after the Grant Date, subject to the Employee’s continued employment on such date (“Third Tranche Share Price Component”);
If none of the specified performance measures set forth above are met by the date specified in (a), (b), or (c) as applicable, the Stock Option will not vest and will not be exercisable at any time.
For purposes of determining whether a stock price has met a Tranche Share Price Component, each tranche’s hurdle percentage (110%, 120%, 130%) shall be multiplied with its respective Grant Price, rounded to the hundredths (two decimals).
5.Expiration Date.
This Stock Option will expire on the tenth anniversary of the Grant Date set forth above (“Expiration Date”), unless sooner terminated or canceled in accordance with the provisions of the Plan and this Grant Agreement. The Employee must exercise this Stock Option, if at all, on a day the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading and on or before the Expiration Date. The Employee shall be solely responsible for exercising this Stock Option, if at all, prior to the Expiration Date. The Company shall have no obligation to notify the Employee of this Stock Option’s expiration.
6.Method of Exercise.
This Stock Option, to the extent it is then vested and exercisable, may be exercised through a broker designated by the Company or by any other method the Committee has approved; provided, however, that no such exercise shall be with respect to fewer than 25 Shares or the remaining Shares covered by the Stock Option if less than 25. The exercise must be accompanied by the payment of the full Grant Price of such Shares and any Tax-Related Items (as defined in Section 12(a)) withholding. Payment may be in cash or Shares or a combination thereof to the extent permissible under Applicable Law or through a broker-assisted cashless exercise; provided, however, that any payment in Shares shall be in strict compliance with all procedural rules established by the Committee.
7.Termination of Employment.
Upon termination of the Employee’s employment for any reason other than death, retirement, in accordance with the applicable retirement policy, permanent and total disability or Cause (as defined below), then all unvested Shares shall be forfeited by the Employee as of the date of termination and he or she may exercise the Stock Option, to the extent that it is then vested, within three (3) months after the date of the Employee’s termination (but in no event later than the Expiration Date), except to the extent a severance plan applicable to the Employee provides otherwise.
8.Death of Employee.
Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4 of this Grant Agreement but subject to the terms of Section 18(a) in the event of the Employee's death prior to the fifth anniversary of the Grant Date, this Stock Option shall vest in full, to the extent not previously vested or forfeited. In the event of the Employee’s death at any time prior to the Expiration Date, the Employee’s legal representative or designated beneficiary shall have the right to exercise all or a portion of the Employee's vested rights under this Grant Agreement within one (1) year after the death of the Employee, and shall be bound by the provisions of the Plan. In all cases, however, this Stock Option will expire no later than the Expiration Date.
9.Disability of the Employee.
Notwithstanding the provisions in Section 4 of this Grant Agreement but subject to the terms of Section 18(a) in the event of the Employee’s termination prior to the fifth anniversary of the Grant Date due to permanent and total disability, this Stock Option shall vest in full, to the extent not previously vested or forfeited. In the event of the Employee’s termination due to permanent and total disability at any time prior to the Expiration Date, the Employee may exercise his or her vested rights under this Grant Agreement within three (3) years from the date of termination. In all cases, however, this Stock Option will expire no later than the Expiration Date. The Company’s obligation to vest the Stock Option under this paragraph 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 no later than the date immediately prior to the date of the Employee’s termination of employment, (ii) the Employee has not engaged in any conduct that creates a conflict of interest in the opinion of the Company during the Employee’s active employment with the Company and any-post employment period during which the Stock Option remains outstanding and (iii) the Employee is in compliance with any-post employment restrictions in the ARCIPD during the period in which the Stock Option remains outstanding.
10.Termination for Cause.
Upon termination of the Employee’s employment for Cause (as defined in the Plan), then all unvested Shares shall be forfeited by the Employee and he or she may exercise the Stock Option, to the extent that it is then vested, before the New York Stock Exchange closes on the date of the Employee’s termination, except to the extent a severance plan applicable to the Employee
2


provides otherwise. Such forfeiture shall occur regardless of whether the Employee has satisfied any applicable age and service requirements for retirement.
11.Retirement of the Employee.
Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4 of this Grant Agreement but subject to the terms of Section 18(a) in the event of the Employee’s termination of employment prior to the fifth anniversary of the Grant Date due to retirement in accordance with the applicable retirement policy, this Stock Option, to the extent not previously vested or forfeited, shall vest and become exercisable as follows:
(a)Provided the First Tranche Share Price Component is timely satisfied, the First Tranche shall fully vest and become exercisable as of the later of the date the First Tranche Share Price Component is satisfied or the first anniversary after the Grant Date;

(c)Provided the Third Tranche Share Price Component is timely satisfied, the Third Tranche shall fully vest and become exercisable as of the later of the date the Third Tranche Share Price Component is satisfied or third anniversary after the Grant Date.
In the event of the Employee’s termination due to retirement in accordance with the applicable retirement policy at any time prior to the Expiration Date, the Employee may exercise his or her vested rights, if any, under this Stock Option within five years from the date of termination, or vesting if later. In all cases, however, this Stock Option will expire no later than the Expiration Date. The Company’s obligation to vest the Stock Option under this paragraph 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 no later than the date immediately prior to the date of the Employee’s termination of employment, (ii) the Employee has not engaged in any conduct that creates a conflict of interest in the opinion of the Company during the Employee’s active employment with the Company and any-post employment period during which the Stock Option remains outstanding and (iii) the Employee is in compliance with any-post employment restrictions in the ARCIPD during the period in which the Stock Option remains outstanding.
12.Taxes.
(a)The Employee shall be liable for any and all taxes, including income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account, employer taxes, or other tax-related items related to the Employee’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable or otherwise recoverable from the Employee (such as fringe benefit tax) by the Company and/or the Employee’s employer (the “Employer”) whether incurred at grant, vesting, exercise, sale, prior to vesting or at any other time (“Tax-Related Items”). In the event that the Company or the Employer is required, allowed or permitted to withhold taxes as a result of the grant, vesting or exercise of Stock Options, or subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such Stock Options, the Employee shall 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 Applicable Law, the Company may sell or arrange for the sale of Shares that Employee acquires as necessary to cover all applicable required withholding Tax-Related Items that are legally recoverable from the Employee at the time of the tax withholding event, unless the Company, in its sole discretion, has established alternative procedures for such payment. The Employee will receive a cash refund for any fraction of a surrendered Share or Shares in excess of any required Tax-Related Items. To the extent that any 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 Stock Options, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting, exercise or settlement of Stock Options, the subsequent issuance of Shares and/or cash upon settlement of such Stock Options or the subsequent sale of any Shares acquired pursuant to such Stock Options and receipt of any dividends; and (ii) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms or any aspect of this grant of Stock Options 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 (or former employer, as applicable) 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, vesting or exercise of Stock Options, that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to deliver the benefit described herein if the Employee fails to comply with the Employee’s obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.

3


(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 exercised Stock Options, 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, vesting or exercise of Stock Options or subsequent sale of the Shares acquired on exercise, or at any other time, that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to deliver the benefit described herein if the Employee fails to comply with the Employee’s obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.
(e)In accepting the Stock Option, the Employee consents and agrees that in the event the Stock Option becomes 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 Stock Option. Further, by accepting the Stock Option, 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 12. The Employee further agrees to execute any other consents or elections required to accomplish the above promptly upon request of the Company.
13.Acknowledgement and Waiver.
By accepting this Stock Option, the Employee acknowledges, understands and agrees that:
(a)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;
(b)the grant of Stock Options is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of Stock Options, or benefits in lieu of Stock Options, even if Stock Options have been granted repeatedly in the past;
(c)all decisions with respect to future grants, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company;
(d)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, insofar as permitted by Applicable Law;
(e)the Employee is participating voluntarily in the Plan;
(f)Stock Options and their resulting benefits are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation;
(g)Stock Options 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, long-service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar payments insofar as permitted by Applicable Law and in no event should be considered as compensation for, or relating in any way to, past services for the Company, the Employer or any Subsidiary or Affiliate;
(h)unless otherwise agreed with the Company, the Stock Options and the Shares subject to the Stock Options, and the income and value of same, are not granted as consideration for, or in connection with, the service the Employee may provide as a director of a Subsidiary or Affiliate;
(i)this grant of Stock Options will not be interpreted to form an employment contract or relationship with the Company, and furthermore, this Stock Option will not be interpreted to form an employment contract with the Employer or any Subsidiary or Affiliate;
(j)the future value of the underlying Shares is unknown, indeterminable and cannot be predicted with certainty;
(k)no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from forfeiture of the Stock Options resulting from termination of Employee’s employment by the Company or the Employer (for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of local labor laws), and in consideration of the grant of the Stock Options to which the Employee is otherwise not entitled, the Employee irrevocably agrees never to institute any claim against the Company or the Employer and releases the Company and the Employer 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;
4


(l)notwithstanding any terms or conditions of the Plan to the contrary, in the event of termination of the Employee’s employment (whether or not in breach of local labor laws), the Employee’s right to exercise or otherwise receive benefits under this Grant Agreement after termination of employment, if any, will be measured by the date of termination of Employee’s active employment and will not be extended by any notice period mandated under local law (e.g., active employment would not include a period of “garden leave” or similar period pursuant to local law); the Committee shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when the Employee is no longer actively employed for purposes of the Stock Options;
(m)neither the Company, the Employer, nor any Subsidiary or Affiliate will 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 Stock Options or any amounts due to the Employee pursuant to the settlement of the Stock Options or the subsequent sale of any Shares acquired upon settlement; and
(n)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 and to the extent permitted under Applicable Law, (a) recover from the Employee the proceeds from Stock Options exercised up to three years prior to the Employee’s termination of employment or any time thereafter, (b) cancel the Employee’s outstanding Stock Options whether or not vested, and (c) take any other action required or permitted by Applicable Law.
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 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 restricted stock units, Stock 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 Stock Units 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 Stock Units on the Merrill Lynch website, the Employee is declaring that the Employee agrees with the data processing practices described in this Section 14 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.
15.No Advice Regarding Grant.
5


The Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding the Employee’s participation in the Plan, or the Employee’s acquisition or sale of the underlying Shares. 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.Plan Information.
The Employee agrees to receive copies of the Plan, the Plan prospectus and other Plan information, including information prepared to comply with laws outside the United States, from the Long-term Incentives website referenced above and stockholder information, including copies of any annual report, proxy and Form 10K, 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 another third party designated by the Company.
17.Additional Eligibility Requirements Permitted.
In addition to any other eligibility criteria provided for in the Plan, the Company may require that the Employee execute a separate document agreeing to the terms of a current arbitration agreement and/or a current ARCIPD, each in a form acceptable to the Company and/or that the Employee be in compliance with the ARCIPD throughout the entire exercise period. If such separate documents are required by the Company and the Employee does not accept them within 75 days of the Grant Date or such other date as of which the Company shall require in its discretion, this Stock Option shall be canceled and the Employee shall have no further rights under this Grant Agreement.
18.Miscellaneous.
(a)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, or extended post-termination exercise periods, and may not be modified adversely to the Employee's interest except by means of a writing signed by the Company and the Employee. 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. This Grant Agreement is governed by the laws of the state of Delaware without regard to its conflict of law provisions.
(b)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.
(c)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.
(d)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.
(e)The Employee acknowledges that, depending on the Employee or 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 his or her ability to acquire or sell Shares or rights to Shares (e.g., Stock Options) under the Plan during such times as the Employee is considered to have “inside information” regarding the Company (as defined by the laws 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 (i) disclosing the inside information to any third party (other than on a “need to know” basis) and (ii) “tipping” third parties or causing them otherwise to buy or sell securities. Keep in mind 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 is responsible for ensuring compliance with any applicable restrictions and is advised to consult his or her personal legal advisor on this matter.
(f)The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on the Employee’s participation in the Plan, on the Stock Options and on any Shares acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable in order to comply with local law or facilitate the administration of the Plan, and to require the Employee to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing.
(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 employee in the Plan.
6


(h)The Company shall not be required to treat as owner of Stock Options, or to provide any associated benefits hereunder, any transferee to whom such Stock Options or benefits shall have been transferred in violation of any of the provisions of this Grant Agreement.
(i)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.
(j)All rights granted and/or Shares issued under this Grant Agreement are subject to claw back under the Company policy as in effect from time to time.
(k)Any notice required or permitted hereunder shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon delivery to the Employee at his or her address then on file with the Company.

Exhibit 10(a)(a)(a)(a)

Second Amendment To
The HP Inc. Severance and
Long-Term Incentive Change in Control Plan
for Executive Officers
As amended and restated effective February 28, 2020


    The HP Inc. Severance and Long-Term Incentive Change in Control Plan for Executive Officers (the "Plan"), as amended and restated effective February 28, 2020, is hereby amended, effective for employee notifications occurring on or after December 7, 2022, to add the following to Appendix A for Performance-Contingent Stock Options (“PCSOs”) generally granted on or after December 7, 2022.

Performance-Contingent Stock Options (PCSOs) With 3-Part Service Vesting
(Generally granted on or after December 07, 2022)
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 15% share price increase within three years after the grant date, with continued service. (“15% 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 four 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 five 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 prior to the Qualifying Termination. 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 15%, 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 third 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:

TABLE 1
Pro-ration of PCSOs With 3-Part Service Vesting

Each of 15%, 20%, and 30% Share Price Components Satisfied
Termination of EmploymentNumber of Option Shares Vested
6 months after the Grant Date
2,000 PCSOs become vested: 6/36 x 12,000 PCSOs =2,000.
12 months after the Grant Date
4,000 PCSOs automatically became vested on the first anniversary of the grant date because the 15% Tranche service and share price components were met. The proration formula (12/36 x 12,000 = 4,000) does not result in the vesting of any additional PCSOs.
18 months after the Grant Date
2,000 PCSOs become vested, in addition to the 4,000 that had vested on the first anniversary of the grant date: 18/36 x 12,000 PCSOs = 6,000 minus the 4,000 that vested on the first anniversary of the grant date (6,000 – 4,000 = 2,000).
21 months after the Grant Date
3,000 PCSOs become vested, in addition to the 4,000 that had vested on the first anniversary of the grant date: 21/36 x 12,000 = 7,000 minus the 4,000 that vested on the first anniversary of the grant date (7,000 – 4,000 = 3,000).
24 months after the Grant Date
4,000 PCSOs automatically became vested on the second anniversary of the grant date because the 20% Tranche service and share price components were met. The proration formula (24/36 x 12,000 = 8,000) does not result in the vesting of any additional PCSOs. (4,000 shares had already vested on the first anniversary of the grant date.)
30 months after the Grant Date
2,000 PCSOs become vested, in addition to the 8,000 that had vested on the first and second anniversaries of the grant date: 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) (10,000 – 8,000 = 2,000).

3.    Some but not all share price components satisfied. Assume the 15% 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:

TABLE 2
Pro-ration of PCSOs With 3-Part Service Vesting

Only the 15% and 20% Share Price Components are Satisfied

6 months after the Grant Date
Zero (0) PCSOs become vested: No share price component has been satisfied.
12 months after the Grant Date
4,000 PCSOs automatically became vested on the first anniversary of the grant date because the 15% Tranche service and share price components were met. The proration formula (12/36 x 12,000 = 4,000) does not result in the vesting of any additional PCSOs.
18 months after the Grant Date
Zero (0) additional PCSOs become vested because the 20% Tranche share price component has not been met. (4,000 PCSOs became vested on the first anniversary of the grant date.)
21 months after the Grant Date
Because the 20% Tranche share price component has been met, 3,000 PCSOs become vested, in addition to the 4,000 that had vested on the first anniversary of the grant date: 21/36 x 12,000 = 7,000 minus the 4,000 already vested on the first anniversary of the grant date (7,000 – 4,000 = 3,000).
24 months after the Grant Date
4,000 PCSOs automatically became vested on the second anniversary of the grant date because the 20% Tranche service and share price components were met. The proration formula (24/36 x 12,000 = 8,000) does not result in the vesting of any additional PCSOs.(An additional 4,000 PCSOs became vested on the first anniversary of the grant date.)
30 months after the Grant Date
Zero (0) additional PCSOs become vested because the 30% Tranche share price component has not been met.





This Second Amendment is executed this 24th day of February, 2023, to be effective as of the date indicated above.

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 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 or any Subsidiary 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;
1



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 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 (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 12 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 or any Subsidiary 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 the Employee is no longer actively providing services to the Company, any Subsidiary (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 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. The Company’s obligation to vest the RSUs under this paragraph 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 no later than the date immediately prior to the date of the Employee’s termination of employment, (ii) the Employee has not engaged in any conduct that creates a conflict of interest in the opinion of the Company during the Employee’s active employment with the Company, and (iii) the Employee is in compliance with any-post employment restrictions in the ARCIPD during the period in which the RSU remains outstanding.

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.Termination for Cause.
Upon termination of the Employee’s employment for Cause, then all unvested RSUs shall be forfeited by the Employee on the date of the Employee’s termination, except to the extent a severance plan applicable to the Employee provides otherwise. Such forfeiture shall occur regardless of whether the Employee has satisfied any applicable age and service requirements for retirement. For the purpose of this Grant Agreement, “Cause” shall mean, unless otherwise defined in an agreement to which the Employee is a party with the Company or a Subsidiary, the occurrence of any of the following: (i) the Employee’s conviction of, or plea of guilty or nolo contendere to, a felony under Applicable Law; (ii) the Employee’s willful and deliberate failure in the performance of the Employee’s duties in any material respect; (iii) the Employee’s willful misconduct that results in material harm to the Company or a Subsidiary; or (iv) the Employee’s material violation of the Company’s ethics and compliance program, code of conduct or other material policy of the Company.

11.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
2



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 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.

12.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 12, 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 and its 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 11, 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 12. The Employee further agrees to execute any other consents or elections required to accomplish the above, promptly upon request of the Company.

13.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, 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 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
3



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 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 the Employee 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 the Employee's local human resources representative. Further, the Employee understands that the Employee is providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis. If the Employee does not consent, or if the Employee later seeks to revoke the Employee's consent, the Employee's employment status or service with the Company or the Employee's 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 the Employee's 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 the Employee may contact the Employee's 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, 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 that the Company and/or a Subsidiary 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 the Employee may be unable to participate in the Plan if the Employee fails to execute any such acknowledgement, agreement or consent requested by the Company and/or a Subsidiary.

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 13 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.

14.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 https://investor.hp.com/home/default.aspx.

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 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 or any Subsidiary 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;
1



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 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 (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 12 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 or any Subsidiary 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 the Employee is no longer actively providing services to the Company, any Subsidiary (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 Disability, all RSUs shall immediately vest including any amounts for dividend equivalent payments on RSUs that vest at termination. The Company’s obligation to vest the RSUs under this paragraph 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 no later than the date immediately prior to the date of the Employee’s termination of employment, (ii) the Employee has not engaged in any conduct that creates a conflict of interest in the opinion of the Company during the Employee’s active employment with the Company, and (iii) the Employee is in compliance with any-post employment restrictions in the ARCIPD during the period in which the RSU remains outstanding.

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.Termination for Cause.
Upon termination of the Employee’s employment for Cause, then all unvested RSUs shall be forfeited by the Employee on the date of the Employee’s termination, except to the extent a severance plan applicable to the Employee provides otherwise. Such forfeiture shall occur regardless of whether the Employee has satisfied any applicable age and service requirements for retirement. For the purpose of this Grant Agreement, “Cause” shall mean, unless otherwise defined in an agreement to which the Employee is a party with the Company or a Subsidiary, the occurrence of any of the following: (i) the Employee’s conviction of, or plea of guilty or nolo contendere to, a felony under Applicable Law; (ii) the Employee’s willful and deliberate failure in the performance of the Employee’s duties in any material respect; (iii) the Employee’s willful misconduct that results in material harm to the Company or a Subsidiary; or (iv) the Employee’s material violation of the Company’s ethics and compliance program, code of conduct or other material policy of the Company.

11.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
2



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 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.

12.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 12, 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 and its 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 11, 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 12. The Employee further agrees to execute any other consents or elections required to accomplish the above, promptly upon request of the Company.

13.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, 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 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
3



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 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 the Employee 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 the Employee's local human resources representative. Further, the Employee understands that the Employee is providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis. If the Employee does not consent, or if the Employee later seeks to revoke the Employee's consent, the Employee's employment status or service with the Company or the Employee's 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 the Employee's 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 the Employee may contact the Employee's 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, 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 that the Company and/or a Subsidiary 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 the Employee may be unable to participate in the Plan if the Employee fails to execute any such acknowledgement, agreement or consent requested by the Company and/or a Subsidiary.

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 13 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.

14.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 https://investor.hp.com/home/default.aspx. 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.

15.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 and that being hired and granted RSUs will not result in the RSUs vesting;

(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;

(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;

(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;

(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;

(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 and releases the Company, the Employer and any other Subsidiary 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;

(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

If such separate documents are required by the Company and the Employee does not accept them within 75 days of the Grant Date or such other date as of which the Company shall require in its discretion, this RSU shall be canceled and the Employee shall have no further rights under this Grant Agreement.
