PARKER-HANNIFIN CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Dollars in thousands, except per share amounts

1. Management representation
In the opinion of the management of the Company, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position as of December 31, 2018 , the results of operations for the three and six months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 and cash flows for the six months then ended. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Interim period results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year. Certain prior-year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current-year presentation.
The Company has evaluated subsequent events that have occurred through the date these financial statements were issued. No subsequent events have occurred that required adjustment to these financial statements.

2. New accounting pronouncements
In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2018-14, "Compensation--Retirement Benefits--Defined Benefit Plans--General." ASU 2018-14 aims to improve disclosure effectiveness by adding, removing or clarifying certain disclosure requirements related to defined benefit pension or other postretirement plans. ASU 2018-14 is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has not yet determined the effect that ASU 2018-14 will have on its financial statements.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, "Fair Value Measurement." ASU 2018-13 aims to improve disclosure effectiveness by adding, modifying or removing certain disclosure requirements for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. ASU 2018-13 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted upon issuance of the ASU for any removed or modified disclosure. Adoption of additional disclosures may be delayed until their effective dates. The Company has not yet determined the effect that ASU 2018-13 will have on its financial statements.
In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, "Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income." ASU 2018-02 allows for a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJ Act) reduction of the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate. The amendments also require certain disclosures about stranded tax effects. ASU 2018-02 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted in any period after the issuance of the update. The amendments in this update should be applied either in the period of adoption or retrospectively to each period in which the effect of the change in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate in the TCJ Act is recognized. The Company has not yet determined the effect that ASU 2018-02 will have on its financial statements.
In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, "Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities." ASU 2017-12 provides targeted improvements to Topic 815 accounting for hedging activities by expanding an entity’s ability to hedge non-financial and financial risk components and reduce complexity in fair value hedges of interest rate risk. The guidance eliminates the requirement to separately measure and report hedge ineffectiveness and generally requires the entire change in the fair value of a hedging instrument to be presented in the same income statement line as the hedged item. The guidance also eases certain documentation and assessment requirements and modifies the accounting for components excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. ASU 2017-12 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early application is permitted in any interim period after issuance of the update. ASU 2017-12 should be applied using a modified retrospective approach for cash flow and net investment hedge relationships that exist on the date of adoption and prospectively for presentation and disclosure requirements. The Company has not yet determined the effect that ASU 2017-12 will have on its financial statements.
In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, "Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost." ASU 2017-07 requires that an employer report the service cost component in the same line item or items as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period. The other components of net benefit cost are required to be presented in the income statement separately from the service cost component and outside a subtotal of income from operations, if one is presented. ASU 2017-07 also provides that only the service cost component is eligible for capitalization, when applicable. ASU 2017-07 should be applied retrospectively for the income

- 7 -



statement presentation of net periodic pension cost and net periodic postretirement benefit cost and prospectively, on or after the effective date, for the capitalization of the service cost component of net periodic pension cost and net periodic postretirement benefit cost. On July 1, 2018, the Company retrospectively adopted ASU 2017-07 and reclassified prior-year amounts using a practical expedient that permits the usage of amounts previously disclosed in the retirement benefits note. As a result, $4,621 and $4,125 of expense was reclassified from cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses, respectively, to other (income) expense, net for the prior-year quarter. Expense of $14,205 and $8,812 was reclassified from cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses, respectively, to other (income) expense, net for the first six months of fiscal 2018.
In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, "Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory." ASU 2016-16 provides that an entity should recognize the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory when the transfer occurs. Consequently, the amendments in ASU 2016-16 eliminate the exception for an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory. The Company adopted ASU 2016-16 on July 1, 2018 and recorded a cumulative effect adjustment of approximately $19 million to reduce retained earnings.
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, "Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments." ASU 2016-15 provides specific guidance on several cash flow classification issues to reduce diversity in practice in how certain transactions are classified within the statement of cash flows. On July 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2016-15 and retrospectively adjusted its Statement of Cash Flows. These retrospective adjustments were not material.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, "Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments." ASU 2016-13 requires a financial asset (or a group of financial assets) measured at amortized cost to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial asset(s) to present the net carrying value at the amount expected to be collected on the financial asset. Credit losses relating to available-for-sale debt securities should be recorded through an allowance for credit losses. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has not yet determined the effect that ASU 2016-13 will have on its financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, "Leases." ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to put most leases with terms greater than 12 months on their balance sheet by recognizing a liability to make lease payments and an asset representing their right to use the asset during the lease term. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election, by class of underlying asset, not to recognize the corresponding assets and lease liabilities. Lessee recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows will not change significantly from existing guidance and lessor accounting is largely unchanged. ASU 2016-02 also changes the definition of a lease and requires qualitative and quantitative disclosures that provide information about the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases.  ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018.  Early adoption is permitted. Adoption of this ASU is planned for the beginning of the first quarter of fiscal 2020. The Company has not yet determined the effect that ASU 2016-02 will have on its financial statements.
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, "Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Liabilities." ASU 2016-01 requires equity investments (excluding equity method investments and investments that are consolidated) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. Equity investments that do not have a readily determinable fair value may be measured at cost, adjusted for impairment and observable price changes. ASU 2016-01 also simplifies the impairment assessment of equity investments, eliminates the disclosure of the assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at cost on the balance sheet and requires the exit price to be used when measuring fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes. Under ASU 2016-01, changes in fair value (resulting from instrument-specific credit risk) are presented separately in other comprehensive income for liabilities measured using the fair value option. Financial assets and liabilities are presented separately by measurement category and type, either on the balance sheet or in the financial statement disclosures. The Company adopted ASU 2016-01 on July 1, 2018 and reclassified approximately $2 million of unrealized gains from accumulated other comprehensive (loss) to retained earnings.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenues with Contracts with Customers.” ASU 2014-09 requires revenue recognition to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that a company expects to be entitled to in exchange for the goods or services. To achieve this principle, a company must apply five steps including identifying the contract with a customer, identifying the performance obligations in the contract, determining the transaction price, allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations, and recognizing revenue when (or as) the company satisfies the performance obligation. The Company adopted ASU 2014-09 on July 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective method and recorded a cumulative effect adjustment to increase retained earnings by approximately $5 million . See Note 3 for further discussion.

3. Revenue recognition

Revenue is derived primarily from the sale of products in a variety of mobile, industrial and aerospace markets. Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services in a contract (i.e., performance obligations) are transferred to the customer. Control is transferred when the customer has the ability to direct the use of and obtain the benefits from the goods or services. A majority of the Company’s revenues are recognized at a point in time when control is transferred to the customer, which is generally at the time of shipment. However, a portion of the Company’s revenues are recognized over time if the customer simultaneously receives control as the Company performs work under a contract, if the customer controls the asset as it is being produced, or if the product being produced for the customer has no alternative use and the Company has a contractual right to payment. For contracts recognized over time, the Company uses the cost-to-cost, efforts expended or units of delivery method depending on the nature of the contract, including length of production time.

A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation. When there are multiple performance obligations within a contract, the transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation based on its standalone selling price. The primary method used to estimate a standalone selling price is the price observed in standalone sales to customers of the same product or service. Revenue is recognized when the appropriate revenue recognition criteria for the individual performance obligations have been satisfied.
The Company considers the contractual consideration payable by the customer and assesses variable consideration that may affect the total transaction price. Variable consideration primarily includes prompt pay discounts, rebates and volume discounts and is included in the estimated transaction price when there is a basis to reasonably estimate the amount, including whether the estimate should be constrained in order to avoid a significant reversal of revenue in a future period. These estimates are based on historical experience, anticipated performance under the terms of the contract and the Company’s best judgment at the time.
Payment terms vary by customer and the geographical location of the customer. The time between when revenue is recognized and payment is due is not significant. The Company’s contracts with customers generally do not include significant financing components or noncash consideration.
Taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are excluded from revenue. Shipping and handling costs are treated as fulfillment costs and are included in cost of sales. The costs to obtain a contract where the amortization period for the related asset is one year or less are expensed as incurred.
There is generally no unilateral right to return products. The Company primarily offers an assurance-type standard warranty that the product will conform to certain specifications for a defined period of time or period of usage after delivery. This type of warranty does not represent a separate performance obligation.
Disaggregation of revenue
Revenue from contracts with customers is disaggregated by technology platforms for the Diversified Industrial Segment, by product platforms for the Aerospace Systems Segment and by geographic location for the total Company.
The Diversified Industrial Segment is an aggregation of several business units, which manufacture motion-control and fluid power system components for builders and users of various type of manufacturing, packaging, processing, transportation, agricultural, construction, and military vehicles and equipment. Contracts consist of individual purchase orders for standard product, blanket purchase orders and production contracts. Blanket purchase orders are often associated with individual purchase orders and have terms and conditions which are subject to a master supply or distributor agreement. Individual production contracts, some of which may include multiple performance obligations, are typically for products to be manufactured to the customer's specifications. Revenue in the Diversified Industrial Segment is typically recognized at the time of product shipment, but a portion of revenue may be recognized over time for installation services or in situations where the product being manufactured has no alternative use and the Company has an enforceable right to payment.

The Aerospace Systems Segment produces hydraulic, fuel, pneumatic and electro-mechanical systems and components, which are utilized on virtually every domestic commercial, military and general aviation aircraft and which also perform a vital role in naval vessels and land-based weapon systems. Contracts generally consist of blanket purchase orders and individual long-term production contracts. Blanket purchase orders, which have terms and conditions subject to long-term supply agreements, are typically associated with individual purchase orders. Revenue in the Aerospace Systems Segment is typically recognized at the time of product shipment, but a portion of revenue may be recognized over time in situations where the customer controls the asset as it is being produced or the product being manufactured has no alternative use and the Company has an enforceable right to payment.

Contract balances
Contract assets and contract liabilities are reported on a contract-by-contract basis. Contract assets reflect revenue recognized and performance obligations satisfied in advance of customer billing. Contract liabilities relate to payments received in advance of the satisfaction of performance under the contract. Payments from customers are received based on the terms established in the contract with the customer.

During the six months ended December 31, 2018 , net contract liabilities increased $6 million from the July 1, 2018 net contract liabilities amount of $38 million . The increase in net contract liabilities was primarily due to advance payments from customers exceeding revenue recognized during the period. During the six months ended December 31, 2018 , approximately $20 million of revenue was recognized that was included in the contract liabilities at July 1, 2018.
Remaining performance obligations
The Company’s backlog represents written firm orders from a customer to deliver products and, in the case of blanket purchase orders, only includes the portion of the order for which a schedule or release has been agreed to with the customer. The Company believes its backlog represents its unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied performance obligations. Backlog at December 31, 2018 was $4,209 million , of which approximately 92 percent is expected to be recognized as revenue within the next 12 months and the balance thereafter.
Adoption of ASU 2014-09
On July 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2014-09 using the modified retrospective approach. The provisions of ASU 2014-09 were applied only to contracts that were not completed as of July 1, 2018. Comparative prior-period financial information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for the comparative prior-year period.

For the six months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 , 836,099 and 706,512 common shares subject to equity-based awards, respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because the effect of their exercise would be anti-dilutive.

5. Share repurchase program
The Company has a program to repurchase its common shares. On October 22, 2014, the Board of Directors of the Company approved an increase in the overall number of shares authorized for repurchase under the program so that, beginning on such date, the aggregate number of shares authorized for repurchase was 35 million . There is no limitation on the number of shares that can be repurchased in a fiscal year. There is no expiration date for this program. Repurchases may be funded primarily from operating cash flows and commercial paper borrowings and the shares are initially held as treasury shares. During the three-month period ended December 31, 2018 , the Company repurchased 3,008,512 shares at an average price, including commissions, of $166.20 per share. During the six-month period ended December 31, 2018 , the Company repurchased 3,302,453 shares at an average price, including commissions, of $166.54 per share.


6. Trade accounts receivable, net
Trade accounts receivable are initially recorded at their net collectible amount and are generally recorded at the time the revenue from the sales transaction is recorded. Receivables are written off to bad debt primarily when, in the judgment of the Company, the receivable is deemed to be uncollectible due to the insolvency of the debtor. Allowance for doubtful accounts was $8,178 and $9,672 at December 31, 2018 and June 30, 2018 , respectively.

As of December 31, 2018 , approximately $7 million in severance payments had been made relating to business realignment charges and acquisition integration charges incurred during fiscal 2019 , the remainder of which are expected to be paid by December 31, 2019 . Severance payments relating to prior-year business realignment and acquisition integration actions are being made as required. Remaining severance payments related to current-year and prior-year business realignment actions of approximately $18 million are primarily reflected within the other accrued liabilities caption in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Additional charges may be recognized in future periods related to the business realignment and acquisition integration actions described above, the timing and amount of which are not known at this time.

13. Income taxes
On December 22, 2017, the TCJ Act was enacted into law. The TCJ Act significantly reforms the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, by among other things, establishing a flat corporate income tax rate of 21 percent and creating a territorial tax system (with a one-time transition tax imposed on previously undistributed foreign earnings and profits).
The Securities and Exchange Commission staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) 118, which provided guidance on accounting for the tax effects of the TCJ Act. SAB 118 provided a measurement period that should not extend beyond one year from the TCJ Act's enactment date for companies to complete the applicable accounting under Topic 740. In accordance with SAB 118, and based on the information available, the Company recorded additional tax expense of $14,485 related to the estimated one-time transition tax during the three months ended December 31, 2018 . This adjustment is a result of the Company's analysis of related proposed regulations that were issued subsequent to the recording of the previous provisional amount. The company now considers its provisional accounting for the effects of the TCJ Act, which includes the remeasurement of deferred tax balances and related valuation allowances, the one-time transition tax and the repatriation of undistributed foreign earnings, as being complete and as meeting the recognition guidance under Topic 740. The Company is in the process of evaluating the final transition tax regulations that were published on January 16, 2019.
During the period ended September 30, 2018, the Company made the accounting policy election to treat taxes related to Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income as a current period expense when incurred.
The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the United States and in various foreign jurisdictions. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by taxing authorities throughout the world. The Company is open to assessment of its federal income tax returns by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service for fiscal years after 2011, and its state and local returns for fiscal years after 2012. The Company is also open to assessment for foreign jurisdictions for fiscal years after 2009. Unrecognized tax benefits reflect the difference between positions taken or expected to be taken on income tax returns and the amounts reflected in the financial statements.
As of December 31, 2018 , the Company had gross unrecognized tax benefits of $146,632 , all of which, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate. The accrued interest related to the gross unrecognized tax benefits, excluded from the amounts above, is $23,411 . It is reasonably possible that within the next 12 months the amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits could be reduced by up to approximately $110,000 as a result of the revaluation of existing uncertain tax positions arising from developments in the examination process or the closure of tax statutes. Any increase in the amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months is expected to be insignificant.


14. Financial instruments
The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities and other investments, accounts receivable and long-term investments as well as obligations under accounts payable, trade, notes payable and long-term debt. Due to their short-term nature, the carrying values for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, trade and notes payable approximate fair value.

Marketable securities and other investments include deposits, equity investments and available-for-sale debt securities. Deposits are recorded at cost, and equity investments and available-for-sale debt securities are recorded at fair value. Changes in fair value related to available-for-sale debt securities are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive (loss). Upon the adoption of ASU 2016-01 on July 1, 2018, changes in fair value of equity investments are recognized in net income. Prior to the adoption of ASU 2016-01, these changes in fair value were recognized in accumulated other comprehensive (loss).

Gross unrealized gains and losses related to both equity investments and available-for-sale debt securities were not material as of December 31, 2018 and June 30, 2018 . There were no facts or circumstances that indicated the unrealized losses were other than temporary.

The contractual maturities of available-for-sale debt securities were predominantly one to three years at December 31, 2018 and June 30, 2018 . Actual maturities of available-for-sale debt securities may differ from their contractual maturities as the Company has the ability to liquidate the available-for-sale debt securities after giving appropriate notice to the issuer.

The Company utilizes derivative and non-derivative financial instruments, including forward exchange contracts, costless collar contracts, cross-currency swap contracts and certain foreign denominated debt designated as net investment hedges, to manage foreign currency transaction and translation risk. The derivative financial instrument contracts are with major investment grade financial institutions and the Company does not anticipate any material non-performance by any of the counterparties. The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.
The Company’s € 700 million aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes due 2025 have been designated as a hedge of the Company’s net investment in certain foreign subsidiaries. The translation of the Senior Notes due 2025 into U.S. dollars is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) and remains there until the underlying net investment is sold or substantially liquidated.
Derivative financial instruments are recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as either assets or liabilities and are measured at fair value.

The cross-currency swap and costless collar contracts are reflected on a gross basis in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company has not entered into any master netting arrangements.
Gains or losses on derivatives that are not hedges are adjusted to fair value through the cost of sales caption in the Consolidated Statement of Income. Gains or losses on derivatives that are hedges are adjusted to fair value through accumulated other comprehensive (loss) in the Consolidated Balance Sheet until the hedged item is recognized in earnings.
The cross-currency swap contracts have been designated as hedging instruments. The costless collar contracts have not been designated as hedging instruments and are considered to be economic hedges of forecasted transactions.
Gains or losses on derivative financial instruments that were recorded in the Consolidated Statement of Income for the three and six months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 were not material.

Gains (losses) on derivative and non-derivative financial instruments that were recorded in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) in the Consolidated Balance Sheet are as follows:

The fair values of the equity securities, corporate bonds and asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities are determined using the closing market price reported in the active market in which the fund is traded or the market price for similar assets that are traded in an active market.
Derivatives consist of forward exchange, costless collar and cross-currency swap contracts, the fair values of which are calculated using market observable inputs including both spot and forward prices for the same underlying currencies. The calculation of fair value of the cross-currency swap contracts also utilizes a present value cash flow model that has been adjusted to reflect the credit risk of either the Company or the counterparty.
Investments measured at net asset value primarily consist of investments in fixed income mutual funds, which are measured at fair value using the net asset value per share practical expedient. These investments have not been categorized in the fair value hierarchy. The Company has the ability to liquidate these investments after giving appropriate notice to the issuer.
The primary investment objective for all investments is the preservation of principal and liquidity while earning income.

There are no other financial assets or financial liabilities that are marked to market on a recurring basis. Fair values are transferred between levels of the fair value hierarchy when facts and circumstances indicate that a change in the method of estimating the fair value of a financial asset or financial liability is warranted.

PARKER-HANNIFIN CORPORATION
FORM 10-Q
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2018
AND COMPARABLE PERIODS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2017
OVERVIEW
The Company is a leading worldwide diversified manufacturer of motion and control technologies and systems, providing precision engineered solutions for a wide variety of mobile, industrial and aerospace markets.
The Company’s order rates provide a near-term perspective of the Company’s outlook particularly when viewed in the context of prior and future order rates. The Company publishes its order rates on a quarterly basis. The lead time between the time an order is received and revenue is realized generally ranges from one day to 12 weeks for mobile and industrial orders and from one day to 18 months for aerospace orders. The Company believes the leading economic indicators of these markets that have a strong correlation to the Company’s future order rates are as follows:

Purchasing Managers Index (PMI) on manufacturing activity specific to regions around the world with respect to most mobile and industrial markets;
Global aircraft miles flown and global revenue passenger miles for commercial aerospace markets and Department of Defense spending for military aerospace markets; and
Housing starts with respect to the North American residential air conditioning market and certain mobile construction markets.
A PMI above 50 indicates that the manufacturing activity specific to a region of the world in the mobile and industrial markets is expanding. A PMI below 50 indicates the opposite. Recent PMI levels for some regions around the world were as follows:

China

51.5

Brazil
52.6

 
49.8

 
52.4

Global aircraft miles flown increased by approximately six percent, and available revenue passenger miles increased by approximately seven percent from their comparable fiscal 2018 levels. The Company anticipates that U.S. Department of Defense spending with regard to appropriations and operations and maintenance for the U.S. Government’s fiscal year 2019 will be approximately nine percent higher than the comparable fiscal 2018 level.
Housing starts in November 2018 were approximately five percent higher than housing starts in December 2017 and approximately seven percent higher than housing starts in June 2018 . United States Census Bureau housing starts data for November 2018 was used as the December 2018 data was unavailable.


- 20 -



The Company believes many opportunities for profitable growth are available. The Company intends to focus primarily on business opportunities in the areas of energy, water, food, environment, defense, life sciences, infrastructure and transportation. The Company believes it can meet its strategic objectives by:

Serving the customer and continuously enhancing its experience with the Company;
Successfully executing its Win Strategy initiatives relating to engaged people, premier customer experience, profitable growth and financial performance;
Maintaining its decentralized division and sales company structure;
Fostering a safety first and entrepreneurial culture;
Engineering innovative systems and products to provide superior customer value through improved service, efficiency and productivity;
Delivering products, systems and services that have demonstrable savings to customers and are priced by the value they deliver;
Acquiring strategic businesses;
Organizing around targeted regions, technologies and markets;
Driving efficiency by implementing lean enterprise principles; and
Creating a culture of empowerment through its values, inclusion and diversity, accountability and teamwork.
Acquisitions will be considered from time to time to the extent there is a strong strategic fit, while at the same time maintaining the Company’s strong financial position. In addition, the Company will continue to assess its existing businesses and initiate efforts to divest businesses that are not considered to be a good long-term strategic fit for the Company. Future business divestitures could have a negative effect on the Company’s results of operations.
The discussion below is structured to separately discuss the Consolidated Statement of Income, Results by Business Segment, Consolidated Balance Sheet and Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.

Net sales for the current-year quarter and first six months of fiscal 2019 increased compared to the comparable prior-year periods primarily due to higher sales in the Diversified Industrial North American businesses and the Aerospace Systems Segment. The effect of currency rate changes decreased net sales by approximately $73 million in the current-year quarter ($67 million of which was attributable to the Diversified Industrial International businesses) and $130 million for the first six months of fiscal 2019 ($118 million of which was attributable to the Diversified Industrial International businesses).
Gross profit margin (calculated as net sales minus cost of sales, divided by net sales) increased in the current-year quarter and the first six months of fiscal 2019 primarily due to higher margins in the Aerospace Systems Segment driven by increased aftermarket and original equipment manufacturer (OEM) volume and profitability. Diversified Industrial Segment margins remained relatively flat for the current-year quarter and first six months of fiscal 2019. Cost of sales for the current-year quarter and prior-year quarter also included business realignment charges and acquisition integration costs of $3.7 million and $13.7 million, respectively, and $8.1 million and $22.8 million for the first six months of fiscal 2019 and 2018, respectively.

- 21 -



Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased for the current-year quarter and the first six months of fiscal 2019 primarily due to the benefits from prior-year restructuring activities and the Company's simplification initiative. These benefits were partially offset by higher net expense associated with the Company's deferred compensation programs due to unfavorable market fluctuations related to investments associated with these programs more than offsetting favorable changes in the related liabilities. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the current-year quarter and prior-year quarter also included business realignment charges and acquisition integration costs of $3.7 million and $11.7 million, respectively, and $7.9 million and $16.6 million for the first six months of fiscal 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Interest expense for the current-year quarter and first six months of fiscal 2019 decreased from the comparable prior-year periods due to lower average debt outstanding.

Effective tax rate for the current-year quarter and the first six months of fiscal 2019 was lower than the comparable prior-year periods primarily due to a net decrease in discrete tax costs resulting from the enactment of the U.S Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJ Act) that were recorded in the prior year periods. The Company expects the fiscal 2019 effective tax rate will be approximately 23.5 percent.

The above presentation reconciles the percentage changes in net sales of the Diversified Industrial Segment reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP to percentage changes in net sales adjusted to remove the effects of divestitures made within the prior four fiscal quarters as well as the effects of currency exchange rates (a non-GAAP measure). The effects of divestitures and currency exchange rates are removed to allow investors and the Company to meaningfully evaluate the percentage changes in net sales on a comparable basis from period to period.
Excluding the effects of divestitures and changes in currency exchange rates, Diversified Industrial North American sales increased for the current-year quarter and first six months of fiscal 2019 primarily due to higher demand from distributors and end-users in the heavy-duty truck, engines, construction equipment, cars and light truck, farm and agricultural equipment, refrigeration and general industrial machinery markets, partially offset by lower demand from end users in the semiconductor, machine tool, oil and gas and power generation markets.
Excluding the effects of divestitures and changes in currency exchange rates, Diversified Industrial International sales for the current-year quarter and first six months of fiscal 2019 increased primarily due to higher demand from distributors and end users in the mobile markets. The increase in sales for the current year quarter is primarily due to a 45 percent increase in both Europe and the Asia Pacific region. The Asia Pacific region accounted for 50 percent of the increase in sales for the first six months of fiscal 2019, while Europe and Latin America contributed 30 percent and 20 percent, respectively. Within the Asia Pacific region, the increase in sales in the current-year quarter and first six months of fiscal 2019 was primarily experienced from distributors and end users in the construction equipment and oil and gas markets, partially offset by lower end-user demand in the general industrial machinery and semiconductor markets. Within Europe, distributors and end users in the construction equipment, heavy-duty truck, industrial trucks and material handling, and telecommunications markets experienced the largest increase in demand during both the current-year quarter and first six months of fiscal 2019 , which was partially offset by lower end-user demand in the cars and light truck and general industrial machinery markets. The increase in sales in Latin America for the current-year quarter and first six months of fiscal 2019 was primarily due to higher demand from distributors and end users in the construction equipment and farm and agricultural equipment markets, partially offset by lower end-user demand in the industrial machinery market.
Operating margins in both the Diversified Industrial North American and International businesses for the current-year quarter and first six months of fiscal 2019 increased due to higher sales volume, lower operating expenses resulting from prior-year business realignment and acquisition integration activities and the Company's simplification initiative, and lower restructuring expenses in the current year. In both businesses these benefits were partially offset by increased manufacturing expenses associated with higher sales volume.

The following business realignment expenses and acquisition integration costs are included in Diversified Industrial North American and Diversified Industrial International operating income:

The business realignment charges primarily consist of severance costs related to actions taken under the Company's simplification initiative implemented by operating units throughout the world as well as plant closures. The majority of the Diversified Industrial International business realignment charges were incurred in Europe. The Company anticipates that cost savings realized from the work force reduction measures taken in the first six months of fiscal 2019 will not materially impact operating income in fiscal 2019 or fiscal 2020. Acquisition integration costs primarily relate to the integration of the fiscal 2017 acquisition of CLARCOR Inc. and are primarily incurred in the Diversified Industrial North American businesses. The Company expects to continue to take the actions necessary to structure appropriately the operations of the Diversified Industrial Segment. Such actions are expected to result in approximately $19 million of additional business realignment charges and acquisition integration costs in the remainder of fiscal 2019.
Diversified Industrial Segment backlog as of December 31, 2018 increased slightly from the prior-year quarter primarily due to orders exceeding shipments in the Diversified Industrial North American businesses, partially offset by shipments exceeding orders in the Diversified Industrial International businesses. Within the International businesses, backlog in Europe represented 95 percent of the decrease from the prior-year quarter.
As of December 31, 2018, Diversified Industrial Segment backlog remained relatively flat compared to the June 30, 2018 amount of $2,167.2 million due to orders exceeding shipments in the International businesses offset by shipments exceeding orders in the North American businesses. Within the International businesses, orders exceeding shipments in Europe and Latin America were partially offset by shipments exceeding orders in the Asia Pacific region.
Backlog consists of written firm orders from a customer to deliver products and, in the case of blanket purchase orders, only includes the portion of the order for which a schedule or release date has been agreed to with the customer. The dollar value of backlog is equal to the amount that is expected to be billed to the customer and reported as a sale.
The Company anticipates Diversified Industrial North American sales for fiscal 2019 will increase between 1.4 percent and 3.9 percent from their fiscal 2018 level, and Diversified Industrial International sales for fiscal 2019 will decrease between 4.9 percent and 2.5 percent from their fiscal 2018 level. Diversified Industrial North American operating margins in fiscal 2019 are expected to range from 16.6 percent to 17.2 percent, and Diversified Industrial International operating margins in fiscal 2019 are expected to range from 15.7 percent to 16.1 percent.

The increase in net sales in the Aerospace Systems Segment for the current-year quarter and first six months of fiscal 2019 was primarily due to higher volume in the commercial and military aftermarket businesses as well as the commercial and military OEM businesses. The higher operating margin for the current-year quarter and first six months was primarily due to higher aftermarket and OEM volume and profitability, higher joint venture earnings, lower engineering and development costs, and lower operating costs. Operating margins in the first six months of fiscal 2019 also benefited from the absence of unfavorable contract settlements that occurred in the comparable prior-year period.

- 24 -



The increase in backlog from the prior-year quarter is due to orders exceeding shipments within the commercial and military OEM and commercial and military aftermarket businesses. The increase in backlog from the June 30, 2018 amount of $1,954.0 million is primarily due to orders exceeding shipments within the military OEM and commercial and military aftermarket businesses, partially offset by shipments exceeding orders in the commercial OEM business. Backlog consists of written firm orders from a customer to deliver products and, in the case of blanket purchase orders, only includes the portion of the order for which a schedule or release date has been agreed to with the customer. The dollar value of backlog is equal to the amount that is expected to be billed to the customer and reported as a sale.
For fiscal 2019, sales are expected to increase between 4.5 percent and 6.6 percent from the fiscal 2018 level and operating margins are expected to range from 18.9 percent to 19.3 percent. A higher concentration of commercial OEM volume in future product mix and higher than expected new product development costs could result in lower margins.
Corporate general and administrative expenses
Corporate general and administrative expenses were $63.9 million in the current-year quarter compared to $46.9 million in the comparable prior-year quarter and were $114.2 million for the first six months of fiscal 2019 compared to $88.3 million for the first six months of fiscal 2018. As a percent of sales, corporate general and administrative expenses were 1.8 percent and 1.4 percent in the current-year and prior-year quarter, respectively. During the first six months of fiscal 2019 and 2018, Corporate general and administrative expenses were 1.6 percent and 1.3 percent of sales, respectively. Corporate general and administrative expenses increased during the current-year quarter and first six months of fiscal 2019 from the respective prior-year periods primarily due to unfavorable market fluctuations related to investments associated with the Company's deferred compensation program more than offsetting favorable changes in the related liabilities.

Cash (comprised of cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities and other investments) includes $994 million and $836 million held by the Company's foreign subsidiaries at December 31, 2018 and June 30, 2018 , respectively. As a result of the TCJ Act, the prior worldwide tax system was replaced by a territorial tax system, which generally allows companies to repatriate future foreign source earnings without incurring additional U.S. federal taxes. However, other U.S. or foreign taxes may be incurred should cash be distributed between the Company's subsidiaries. The Company has determined it will no longer permanently reinvest certain foreign earnings. All other undistributed foreign earnings remain permanently reinvested.

- 25 -



Trade accounts receivable, net are receivables due from customers for sales of product. Days sales outstanding relating to trade accounts receivable was 52 days at December 31, 2018 , and 51 days at June 30, 2018 . The Company believes that its receivables are collectible and appropriate allowances for doubtful accounts have been recorded.
Inventories as of December 31, 2018 increased $183 million due to an increase in inventories in both the Diversified Industrial and Aerospace Systems Segments, partially offset by a decrease of $13 million related to the effect of foreign currency translation. Within the Diversified Industrial Segment, approximately 65 percent of the increase in inventories occurred in the Diversified Industrial North American businesses, and approximately 35 percent of the increase occurred in the Diversified Industrial International businesses. Days supply of inventory was 77 days at December 31, 2018 , 64 days at June 30, 2018 and 78 days at December 31, 2017 .
Shareholders’ equity activity during the first six months of fiscal 2019 included a decrease of approximately $550 million as a result of share repurchases and a decrease of approximately $79 million as a result of foreign currency translation.

Cash flows from operating activities for the first six months of fiscal 2019 was higher than the first six months of fiscal 2018 primarily due to an increase in net income and cash provided by working capital items, partially offset by a $200 million discretionary cash contribution to the Company's domestic qualified defined benefit plan. The Company continues to focus on managing its inventory and other working capital requirements.
Cash flows from investing activities includes net maturities (purchases) of marketable securities and other investments of $12 million and $(66) million in the first six months of fiscal 2019 and 2018, respectively. Cash flows from investing activities also includes $94 million of capital expenditures during the first six months of fiscal 2019 compared to $145 million of capital expenditures during first six months of fiscal 2018.
Cash flows from financing activities for the first six months of fiscal 2019 includes net commercial paper borrowings of $606 million compared to net borrowings of $139 million in the first six months of fiscal 2018 . During the first six months of fiscal 2019 , the Company also repaid $100 million of long-term debt. Cash flows from financing activities includes repurchase activity under the Company's share repurchase program. The Company repurchased 3.3 million common shares for $550 million in the first six months of fiscal 2019 compared to the repurchase of 0.6 million common shares for $100 million in the first six months of fiscal 2018 .
The Company’s goal is to have no less than an “A” rating on senior debt to ensure availability and reasonable cost of external funds. In periods following significant capital deployment, including for share repurchases or acquisitions, certain of the ratings assigned to the Company's senior debt may be, and at December 31, 2018 was, lower than the stated goal. The Company does not presently believe that its ability to borrow funds in the future at desirable tenors and affordable interest rates will be impacted if certain of its ratings are temporarily below an "A" level at the time of such borrowings. At December 31, 2018 , the long-term credit ratings assigned to the Company's senior debt securities by the credit rating agencies engaged by the Company were as follows:
Fitch Ratings
 
A-
Moody's Investor Services, Inc.
 
Baa1
Standard & Poor's
 
A

- 26 -



At December 31, 2018 , the Company had a line of credit totaling $2,000 million through a multi-currency revolving credit agreement with a group of banks, $859 million of which was available. The credit agreement expires in October 2021; however, the Company has the right to request a one-year extension of the expiration date on an annual basis, which request may result in changes to the current terms and conditions of the credit agreement. Advances from the credit agreement can be used for general corporate purposes, including acquisitions, and for the refinancing of existing indebtedness. The credit agreement requires the payment of an annual facility fee, the amount of which may increase in the event the Company’s credit ratings are lowered. Although a lowering of the Company’s credit ratings would likely increase the cost of future debt, it would not limit the Company’s ability to use the credit agreement nor would it accelerate the repayment of any outstanding borrowings.
As of December 31, 2018 , the Company was authorized to sell up to $2,000 million of short-term commercial paper notes. As of December 31, 2018 , $1,141 million of commercial paper notes were outstanding, and the largest amount of commercial paper notes outstanding during the current-year quarter was $1,233 million.
The Company’s credit agreements and indentures governing certain debt securities contain various covenants, the violation of which would limit or preclude the use of the credit agreements for future borrowings, or might accelerate the maturity of the related outstanding borrowings covered by the indentures. Based on the Company’s rating level at December 31, 2018 , the most restrictive financial covenant provides that the ratio of debt to debt-shareholders' equity cannot exceed .60 to 1.0. At December 31, 2018 , the Company's debt to debt-shareholders' equity ratio was .49 to 1.0. The Company is in compliance with all covenants and expects to remain in compliance during the term of the credit agreements and indentures.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Forward-looking statements contained in this and other written and oral reports are made based on known events and circumstances at the time of release, and as such, are subject in the future to unforeseen uncertainties and risks. These statements may be identified from the use of forward-looking terminology such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “may,” “should,” “could,” “potential,” “continues,” “plans,” “forecasts,” “estimates,” “projects,” “predicts,” “would,” “intends,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “targets,” “is likely,” “will,” or the negative of these terms and similar expressions, and include all statements regarding future performance, earnings projections, events or developments. It is possible that the future performance and earnings projections of the Company, including its individual segments, may differ materially from current expectations, depending on economic conditions within its mobile, industrial and aerospace markets, and the Company’s ability to maintain and achieve anticipated benefits associated with announced realignment activities, strategic initiatives to improve operating margins, actions taken to combat the effects of the current economic environment, and growth, innovation and global diversification initiatives. Additionally, the actual impact of the TCJ Act on future performance and earnings projections may change based on subsequent judicial or regulatory interpretations of the TCJ Act that impact the Company's tax calculations. A change in the economic conditions in individual markets may have a particularly volatile effect on segment performance.
Among other factors which may affect future performance are:
changes in business relationships with and purchases by or from major customers, suppliers or distributors, including delays or cancellations in shipments;
disputes regarding contract terms or significant changes in financial condition, changes in contract cost and revenue estimates for new development programs, and changes in product mix;
ability to identify acceptable strategic acquisition targets; uncertainties surrounding timing, successful completion or integration of acquisitions and similar transactions, including the integration of CLARCOR Inc.; ability to successfully divest businesses planned for divestiture and realize the anticipated benefits of such divestitures;
the determination to undertake business realignment activities and the expected costs thereof and, if undertaken, the ability to complete such activities and realize the anticipated cost savings from such activities;
ability to implement successfully capital allocation initiatives, including timing, price and execution of share repurchases;
availability, limitations or cost increases of raw materials, component products and/or commodities that cannot be recovered in product pricing;
ability to manage costs related to insurance and employee retirement and health care benefits;
compliance costs associated with environmental laws and regulations;
potential labor disruptions;
threats associated with and efforts to combat terrorism and cyber-security risks;
uncertainties surrounding the ultimate resolution of outstanding legal proceedings, including the outcome of any appeals;
global competitive market conditions, including global reactions to U.S. trade policies, and resulting effects on sales and pricing; and
global economic factors, including manufacturing activity, air travel trends, currency exchange rates, difficulties entering new markets and general economic conditions such as inflation, deflation, interest rates and credit availability.
The Company makes these statements as of the date of this disclosure, and undertakes no obligation to update them unless otherwise required by law.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company manages foreign currency transaction and translation risk by utilizing derivative and non-derivative financial instruments, including forward exchange contracts, costless collar contracts, cross-currency swap contracts and certain foreign denominated debt designated as net investment hedges. The derivative financial instrument contracts are with major investment grade financial institutions and the Company does not anticipate any material non-performance by any of the counterparties. The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.
Derivative financial instruments are recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as either assets or liabilities and are measured at fair value. Further information on the fair value of these contracts is provided in Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Gains or losses on derivatives that are not hedges are adjusted to fair value through the Consolidated Statement of Income. Gains or losses on derivatives that are hedges are adjusted to fair value through accumulated other comprehensive (loss) in the Consolidated Balance Sheet until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The translation of the foreign denominated debt that has been designated as a net investment hedge is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) and remains there until the underlying net investment is sold or substantially liquidated.
The Company’s debt portfolio contains variable rate debt, inherently exposing the Company to interest rate risk. The Company’s objective is to maintain a 60/40 mix between fixed rate and variable rate debt thereby limiting its exposure to changes in near-term interest rates.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2018 . Based on this evaluation, the Company's principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2018 , the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2018 that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Ownership shall include shares held in the name of a nominee or other intermediary so long as the person claiming ownership of such shares retains the right to instruct how the shares are voted with respect to the election of Directors and possesses the full economic interest in the shares, provided that this provision shall not alter the obligations of any shareholder to provide the Notice of Proxy Access Nomination. Ownership of shares shall be deemed to continue during any period in which shares have been loaned if the person claiming ownership has the power to recall such loaned shares on five business days’ notice and the person recalls the loaned shares within five business days of being notified that its Proxy Access Shareholder Nominee will be included in the Proxy Materials for the applicable annual meeting, and the person holds the recalled shares through such annual meeting. Ownership of shares shall be deemed to continue during any period in which any voting power has been delegated by means of a proxy, power of attorney or other instrument or arrangement which is revocable at any time without condition. For purposes of this Article I, Section 8, the determination of the extent of ownership of shares shall be made in good faith by the Board of Directors, which determination shall be conclusive and binding on the Corporation and the shareholders. An Eligible Shareholder shall include in its Notice of Proxy Access Nomination the number of shares it is deemed to own for the purposes of this Article I, Section 8.

PARKER-HANNIFIN CORPORATION
RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT TERMS AND CONDITIONS (RSU-[ # ]BOD)

Pursuant to the Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement (the “Award Agreement”) available on the website of the third party Plan administrator for Parker-Hannifin Corporation (the “Company”), the Human Resources and Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors of the Company has awarded you a number of Restricted Stock Units. The Restricted Stock Units have been awarded to you as of the grant date specified in the Award Agreement (the “Grant Date”), and the Restricted Stock Units are subject to the terms, conditions and restrictions set forth in the Parker-Hannifin Corporation 2016 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan, as amended from time to time, or any applicable successor plan (the “Plan”) and these Restricted Stock Unit Terms and Conditions (RSU-[ # ]BOD) (the “Terms and Conditions”). To the extent that, in accordance with the terms of the Plan, the Committee has delegated to any persons any of the Committee’s authority with respect to these Terms and Conditions, references to the Committee in these Terms and Conditions shall be deemed to be references to those persons with respect to authority so delegated.

1.      Crediting of Restricted Stock Units . Each Restricted Stock Unit shall represent the contingent right to receive one share of Common Stock of the Company and shall at all times be equal in value to one share of Common Stock of the Company. The Restricted Stock Units shall be credited in a book entry account established for you until payment in accordance with Section 6 hereof.

2.      Payment of RSUs. The RSU grant you received in accordance with your Award Agreement will become payable to you in accordance with the rules set forth in Sections 3, 4, and 5 below.
3.      Vesting of Restricted Stock Units .

(a)      Subject to these Terms and Conditions, all or a portion of the Restricted Stock Units will vest on the vesting date(s) described in the Award Agreement (each a “Vesting Date”) and shall be payable at the Distribution Date(s) (as defined in Section 4 hereof), provided that you shall have remained in the continuous employment of the Company and its Subsidiaries (collectively referred to herein as the “Parker Companies”) through the applicable Vesting Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent it does not cause imposition of a tax under Section 409A of the Code, the Committee may, in its discretion, accelerate the vesting of the RSUs (but not the time of payment) at any time, in part or in full.
(b)      For purposes of this Section 3 of these Terms and Conditions, your continuous employment with the Parker Companies shall not be deemed to have been interrupted, and you shall not be deemed to have ceased to be an employee of the Parker Companies, by reason of: (1) the transfer of your employment among the Parker Companies; (2) the transfer of your employment to an entity that is 50% (or more) owned (directly or indirectly) by the Company provided that you remain actively and continuously employed by such entity; or (3) a shift from full-time to part-time employment status.

4.      Qualifying Termination following a Change in Control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, coincident with or during the 12-month period following the effective date of a Change in Control (as defined in the Plan and including the date immediately prior to an “Anticipatory Termination” as defined in the Plan), your employment with the Parker Companies is either (i) terminated by the Parker Companies or a successor thereto other than for Cause (as such term is defined in the Plan), Disability or (ii) by you for Good Reason (as such term is defined in the Plan) then the unvested Shares awarded to such Participant under the Award Agreement will fully vest upon such termination of employment.






5.      Effect of Termination Due to Death, Disability, or Retirement. Notwithstanding Section 3 above and, subject to the definitions of “Disability” and “Retirement” as set forth in Section 29 below, if your employment with the Parker Companies is terminated by reason of death or Disability, or by you on or after the date you meet the requirements of Retirement as defined in Section 29, the unvested RSUs covered under your Award Agreement will become fully vested upon such termination of employment.     
6.      Other Employment Terminations. In the event that your employment with the Parker Companies terminates in a manner other than any specified in Sections 4 or 5 above, you will automatically and permanently forfeit any RSUs that have not vested on or before the time of such termination.
7.      Payment.
(a)      Except as may be otherwise provided in this Section, the Company shall deliver to you (or your estate or any beneficiary you have designated in accordance with Section 16 hereof in the event of your death) the Common Stock underlying the vested Restricted Stock Units within thirty (30) days following each Distribution Date. Except as may be otherwise provided in this Section 6, a “Distribution Date” shall mean each Vesting Date that your Restricted Stock Units become vested. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that any of your Restricted Stock Units become vested solely on the basis of your Retirement, then the Distribution Date of such Restricted Stock Units shall be the earlier of (x) each Vesting Date that such Restricted Stock Units would otherwise have become vested in accordance with your Award Agreement, had your employment with the Parker Companies continued until such Vesting Date, i.e., at the same time you otherwise would have received the RSUs (y) the occurrence of a termination within 12 month of a “change in control” as specified in Section 4 above, or (z) your death.
(b)      Notwithstanding any provision of Section 7(a) above to the contrary, if your employment with the Parker Companies terminates due to Disability or Retirement your termination of employment will result in a right to payment only if it is a “separation from service” as that term is defined in Code Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(i). Furthermore, if upon your “separation from service” you are a “specified employee” as determined pursuant to procedures adopted by the Committee in compliance with Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, and to the extent that the payment of your RSUs does not otherwise qualify for an exception to Section 409A, then your “Distribution Date” will be the earlier of: (x) the first day of the seventh month after the date of your separation from service from the Parker Companies within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(i) of the Code; and (y) the date of your death.

8.      Transferability . The Restricted Stock Units may not be transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated in any manner, or be subject to execution, attachment or similar process, by operation of law or otherwise, unless otherwise provided under the Plan. Any purported transfer or encumbrance in violation of the provisions of this Section 8 shall be null and void, and the other party to any such purported transaction shall not obtain any rights to or interest in such Restricted Stock Units.

9.      Dividend, Voting and Other Rights . You shall not possess any incidents of ownership (including, without limitation, dividend or voting rights) in the Common Stock underlying the Restricted Stock Units until such Common Stock has been delivered to you in accordance with Section 6 hereof. The obligations of the Company under these Terms and Conditions will be merely an unfunded and unsecured promise of the Company to deliver Common Stock in the future, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and these Terms and Conditions, and your rights will be no greater than that of an unsecured general creditor. No assets of the Company will be held or set aside as security for the obligations of the Company under these Terms and Conditions.

10.      Dividend Equivalents .

(a)      For employees on the U.S.-based payroll, from and after the Grant Date and until the earliest of (i) the time when the Restricted Stock Units are paid in accordance with Section 6 hereof, (ii) the time when your right to payment of the Restricted Stock Units is forfeited in accordance with Section 7 hereof and (iii) the time your employment is relocated to a jurisdiction that does not employ a United States-based payroll, you shall be entitled to a cash payment equal to the product of (x) the dollar amount of the cash dividend paid per share of Common Stock on such date and (y) the total number of unpaid Restricted Stock Units credited to you as of such date (each such cash





payment a “Dividend Equivalent”). Any Dividend Equivalent shall be paid to you within thirty (30) days after such date following the Grant Date that a cash dividend (if any) is paid to the holders of shares of Common Stock. Dividend Equivalents will be subject to any required withholding for federal, state or local taxes, social taxes or other taxes. Employees subject to subsection (iii) shall become entitled to Dividend Equivalent Units pursuant to the terms of Section 10(b) hereof in lieu of Dividend Equivalents.

(b)      For employees on a non-U.S.-based payroll, from and after the Grant Date and until the earlier of (i) the time when the Restricted Stock Units are paid in accordance with Section 6 hereof, (ii) the time when your right to payment of the Restricted Stock Units is forfeited in accordance with Section 7 hereof or (iii) the time your employment is relocated to a jurisdiction that employs a United States-based payroll, on the date that the Company pays a cash dividend (if any) to holders of shares of Common Stock generally, you shall be credited with a number of additional Restricted Stock Units (the “Dividend Equivalent Units”) determined by dividing the aggregate amount of the cash dividend that would be payable on such date to a holder of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of your unpaid Restricted Stock Units by the closing price per share of the Company's Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the last trading day preceding the dividend payment date. Any such Dividend Equivalent Units will be considered Restricted Stock Units for purposes of these Terms and Conditions and will be subject to all of the terms, conditions and restrictions set forth herein, provided that for purposes of Section 3(a) of these Terms and Conditions: (x) any such additional Restricted Stock Units credited between the Grant Date and the first Vesting Date shall vest in three equal installments on the first Vesting Date, the second Vesting Date and the third Vesting Date, provided that you are continuously employed by the Parker Companies through each such Vesting Date; (y) any such additional Restricted Stock Units credited between the first Vesting Date and the second Vesting Date shall vest in two equal installments on the second Vesting Date and the third Vesting Date, provided that you are continuously employed by the Parker Companies through each such Vesting Date; (z) and any such additional Restricted Stock Units credited between the second Vesting Date and the third Vesting Date shall vest on the third Vesting Date, provided that you are continuously employed by the Parker Companies through such Vesting Date. Employees subject to subsection (iii) shall become entitled to Dividend Equivalents pursuant to the terms of Section 10(a) hereof in lieu of Dividend Equivalent Units.

11.      No Rights to Future Awards . By voluntarily acknowledging and accepting your award of Restricted Stock Units, you acknowledge and understand that the Restricted Stock Units shall not form part of any contract of employment between you and the Company. Nothing in these Terms and Conditions, your Award Agreement, the Plan or the plan summary and prospectus which describes the Plan (the “Prospectus”) shall confer upon you any right to continue to receive stock incentive awards in the future. You further acknowledge that your award of Restricted Stock Units is for future services and is not under any circumstances to be considered compensation for past services.

12.      Detrimental Activity, Claw-back Policy .

(a)      If the Committee finds in its discretion that you have engaged in any Detrimental Activity (as defined in the Plan), the Committee may at any time and in its sole discretion cancel and revoke all or any unpaid portion of your Restricted Stock Units. In addition, if the Committee finds that you have engaged in any Detrimental Activity, either during your employment with the Company or within twelve months thereafter, then you shall be required to (a) return to the Company all shares of Common Stock that you have not disposed of that were issued pursuant to these Terms and Conditions within twelve months prior to the commencement of such Detrimental Activity, and (b) pay to the Company in cash, within ten days after demand therefor, the Fair Market Value (determined as of the date that the Restricted Stock Units were paid to you in accordance with Section 6 hereof) of all shares of Common Stock that you have disposed of that were so issued pursuant to these Terms and Conditions. The Plan defines Detrimental Activity as any conduct or activity, whether or not related to the business of the Parker Companies, that is determined in individual cases, by the Committee or its express delegate, to be detrimental to the interests of the Parker Companies, including without limitation (i) rendering of services to an organization or engaging in a business that is, in the judgment of the Committee or its express delegate, in competition with the Company; (ii) disclosure to anyone outside of the Company, or the use for any purpose other than the Company’s business, of confidential information or material related to the Company, whether acquired during or after employment with the Company; (iii) fraud, embezzlement, theft-in-office or other illegal activity; or (iv) violation of the Company’s Code of Ethics.






(b)      By accepting your award of Restricted Stock Units, you acknowledge that the Restricted Stock Units may be subject to reduction, cancellation, forfeiture or recoupment, to such extent as may be provided under the Company's Claw-back Policy, as established by the Committee or the Board, as it now exists or as it may be amended from time to time.

13.      Relation to Other Benefits . Any economic or other benefit to you under these Terms and Conditions or the Plan shall not be taken into account in determining any benefits to which you may be entitled under any profit-sharing, retirement or other benefit or compensation plan maintained by the Parker Companies and shall not affect the amount of any life insurance coverage available to any beneficiary under any life insurance plan covering employees of the Parker Companies. Without limiting the foregoing, by voluntarily acknowledging and accepting your award of Restricted Stock Units, you agree that no benefits accruing under your Award Agreement, these Terms and Conditions or the Plan will be reflected in any severance or indemnity payments that the Parker Companies may make or be required to make to you in the future, regardless of the jurisdiction in which you may be located.

14.      Relation to Plan . These Terms and Conditions and all rights under your Award Agreement and these Terms and Conditions are at all times subject to all other terms, conditions and provisions of the Plan (and any rules or procedures adopted under the Plan by the Committee). All capitalized terms not defined in these Terms and Conditions shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the Plan. In the event of a conflict between the terms of the Plan and these Terms and Conditions, your Award Agreement or the Prospectus, the terms of the Plan shall control. These Terms and Conditions, the Plan and the Award Agreement contain the entire agreement and understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter contained in these Terms and Conditions, and supersede all prior written or oral communications, representations and negotiations in respect thereto.

15.      Taxes and Withholding.

You are 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 your participation in the Plan and legally applicable to or otherwise recoverable from you by the Company and/or, if different, your 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 15, shall include a former employer) is required, allowed or permitted to withhold taxes as a result of the RSUs or the shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to such RSUs, or due upon receipt of dividend equivalent payments or dividends, you shall surrender a sufficient number of whole shares of Common Stock, make a cash payment or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Parker Companies to withhold such taxes from your wages or other cash compensation paid to you by the Parker Companies 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 of Common Stock that you acquire as necessary to cover all Tax-Related Items that the Parker Companies have to withhold or that are legally recoverable from you (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 Parker Companies shall limit the surrender of Shares to the minimum number of Shares permitted to avoid a prohibited acceleration under Section 409A. You 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 of Common Stock or payment of cash or alternative procedure for such payment is insufficient, you authorize the Parker Companies which are qualified to deduct tax at source, to deduct from your compensation all Tax-Related Items. You agree to pay any Tax-Related Items that cannot be satisfied from wages or other cash compensation, to the extent permitted by applicable law.

(a) To avoid negative accounting treatment, the Parker Companies may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding amounts or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum applicable rates, in which case you will receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash and will have no entitlement to the Common Stock share equivalent. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in shares of Common Stock, for tax purposes, you are 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 is held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of any aspect of your participation in the Plan.

(b) Regardless of any action the Parker Companies take with respect to any or all Tax-Related Items, you acknowledge and agree that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items is and remains your responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Parker Companies. You further acknowledge that the Parker Companies: (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 of Common Stock and/or cash upon settlement of such RSUs or the subsequent sale of any shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to such RSUs and receipt of any dividends or dividend equivalent payments; and (ii) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms or any aspect of the grant of RSUs and/or dividend equivalents to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related Items or to achieve any particular tax result. Further, if you have become subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction, you acknowledge that the Parker Companies may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction. You shall pay the Parker Companies any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Parker Companies may be required to withhold or account for as a result of the Employee’s participation in the Plan or your of RSUs that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to deliver the benefit described in the Award Agreement if you fail to with your obligations in connection with the Tax Related Items.

(c) In accepting the RSUs, you consent and agree that in the event the RSUs or the dividend equivalents become subject to an employer tax that is legally permitted to be recovered from you, as may be determined by the Parker Companies at their sole discretion, and whether or not your employment with the Parker Companies is continuing at the time such tax becomes recoverable, you will assume any liability for any such taxes that may be payable by the Parker Companies in connection with the RSUs and dividend equivalents. Further, by accepting the RSUs, you agree that the Parker Companies may collect any such taxes from you by any of the means set forth in this Section 15. You further agree to execute any other consents or elections required to accomplish the above, promptly upon request of the Company.

16.    Beneficiary Designation . To the extent permitted by the Committee, in its sole discretion, you shall have the right to designate one or more beneficiaries to receive all or part of any shares of Common Stock underlying the Restricted Stock Units in the event of your death. Any beneficiary designation permitted by the Committee shall be effective when it is submitted in writing to the Committee during your lifetime on a form prescribed by the Committee. The submission of a new beneficiary designation shall cancel all prior beneficiary designations. Any finalized divorce or marriage subsequent to the date of a beneficiary designation shall revoke such designation, unless in the case of divorce your previous spouse was not designated as beneficiary and unless in the case of marriage your new spouse was previously designated as beneficiary. If you are married, your spouse shall consent to any designation of a beneficiary other than the spouse, and the spouse's consent shall be witnessed by a notary public.

If you fail to designate a beneficiary as may be permitted by the Committee, or if such beneficiary designation is revoked by marriage, divorce, or otherwise without execution of a new designation, or if every person designated as beneficiary predeceases you or dies prior to the payment of your Restricted Stock Units, then the Company shall direct the payment of the shares of Common Stock underlying the Restricted Stock Units to the legal representative of your estate.

If you and your beneficiary shall die simultaneously or under such circumstances that it cannot be determined with reasonable certainty who died first, then it shall be presumed for purposes of this designation that you survived your beneficiary.






The payment of the shares of Common Stock to a beneficiary shall fully and completely discharge the Parker Companies and the Committee from all further obligations under the Plan with respect to you and your estate, and your Award Agreement shall terminate upon such full payment of benefits.

17.      Adjustments . The number and kind of shares of Common Stock deliverable pursuant to the Restricted Stock Units are subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4.3 of the Stock Incentive Plan.

18.      Compliance with Law . The Company shall make reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable federal and state securities laws and listing requirements with respect to the Restricted Stock Units; provided , however , notwithstanding any other provision of these Terms and Conditions, and only to the extent permitted under Section 409A of the Code, the Company shall not be obligated to deliver any shares of Common Stock pursuant to these Terms and Conditions if the delivery thereof would result in a violation of any such law or listing requirement. The Company intends that the Award Agreement and these Terms and Conditions are subject to the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and they will be interpreted, construed and administered accordingly.

19.      Amendments . Subject to the terms of the Plan, the Committee may amend these Terms and Conditions upon written notice to you. Any amendment to the Plan shall be deemed to be an amendment to these Terms and Conditions to the extent that the amendment is applicable hereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment of the Plan or these Terms and Conditions shall adversely affect your rights under these Terms and Conditions without your consent unless the Committee determines that such amendment is necessary or advisable to conform the Plan or these Terms and Conditions to any present or future law, regulation or rule applicable to the Plan.

20.      Severability . In the event that one or more of the provisions of these Terms and Conditions shall be invalidated for any reason by a court of competent jurisdiction, any provision so invalidated shall be deemed to be separable from the other provisions hereof, and the remaining provisions hereof shall continue to be valid and fully enforceable.

21.      Successors and Assigns . Without limiting Section 8, the provisions of these Terms and Conditions shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, your successors, administrators, heirs, legal representatives and assigns, and the successors and assigns of the Company.

22.      Governing Law . The interpretation, performance, and enforcement of these Terms and Conditions shall be governed by the laws of the State of Ohio, without regard to its conflict of law rules. Any dispute, disagreement or question which arises under or as a result of, or in any way relates to, the interpretation, construction or application of the terms of the Plan, the Award Agreement or these Terms and Conditions will be determined and resolved by the Committee. Such determination and resolution by the Committee will be final, binding and conclusive for all purposes.

23 .      No Shareholder Rights Prior to Issuance of Shares. You will have no rights as a shareholder unless and until shares of Company Stock are issued pursuant to the Award Agreement or these Terms and Conditions.


24.      Non-U.S. Employees . Notwithstanding any provision of these Terms and Conditions, if your employment with the Parker Companies is subject to the rules and regulations of one or more non-United States jurisdictions, then your Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to any special terms and conditions as set forth in any appendix for your country (an “Appendix”). Moreover, if you relocate to one of the countries included in an Appendix, the special terms and conditions for such country will apply to you, to the extent the Company determines that the application of such terms and conditions is necessary or advisable in order to comply with local law or facilitate the administration of these Terms and Conditions or the Plan. An Appendix shall constitute part of these Terms and Conditions.

25. Consent to Transfer Personal Data . By accepting your award of Restricted Stock Units:

(a) You hereby explicitly and unambiguously consent to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic
or other form, of your personal data as described in this Grant Agreement and any other materials

PARKER-HANNIFIN CORPORATION
STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS TERMS AND CONDITIONS (SAR-0S19O)

Pursuant to the Stock Appreciation Rights Award Agreement (the “Award Agreement”) available on the website of the third party Plan administrator for Parker-Hannifin Corporation (the “Company”), The Human Resources and Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors of the Company has awarded you a number of Stock Appreciation Rights (“SARs”). The SARs have been awarded to you as of the grant date specified in the Award Agreement (the “Grant Date”), and the SARs are subject to the terms, conditions, and restrictions set forth in the Parker-Hannifin Corporation 2016 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan, as amended from time to time, or any applicable successor plan (the “Plan”) and these Stock Appreciation Rights Terms and Conditions (SAR-[ # ]) (the “Terms and Conditions”). To the extent that, in accordance with the terms of the Plan, the Committee has delegated to any persons any of the Committee’s authority with respect to these Terms and Conditions, references to the Committee in these Terms and Conditions shall be deemed to be references to those persons with respect to authority so delegated.

1.    Description of SARs . Your SARs award entitles you to receive the increase in value between the Grant Price set forth in your Award Agreement and the Fair Market Value at exercise (“Appreciation”) of the number of shares of Common Stock to which your award applies, subject to these Terms and Conditions. Upon exercise, the Appreciation will be paid to you in shares of Common Stock having a value equal to the amount of the Appreciation. The calculation of Appreciation is described in more detail below. Your unexercised SARs will expire and cease to be exercisable without further action or notice on the Expiration Date set forth in your Award Agreement or such earlier date (a “Lapse Date”) as may be applicable pursuant to Section 3(d) of these Terms and Conditions.

2.    Calculation of Appreciation . Appreciation shall be determined by the Company (or its third party Plan administrator) by subtracting the Grant Price from the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock at the time of your exercise of SARs, and multiplying the result by the number of SARs exercised. The number of shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of SARs will be the number derived from dividing the Appreciation by the Fair Market Value at exercise of a share of Common Stock, rounded down to the nearest whole share.

You further acknowledge that your award of SARs is for future services and is not under any circumstances to be considered compensation for past services.

8.    Detrimental Activity, Claw-back Policy .

(a)    If the Committee finds in its discretion that you have engaged in any Detrimental Activity (as defined in the Plan), the Committee may at any time and in its sole discretion cancel and revoke all or any unexercised portion of your SARs. In addition, if the Committee finds that you have engaged in any Detrimental Activity, either during your employment with the Company or within twelve months thereafter, then you shall be required to (a) return to the Company, in exchange for payment by the Company of any amount actually paid therefor by you, all shares of Common Stock that you have not disposed of that were issued pursuant to these Terms and Conditions within twelve months prior to the commencement of such Detrimental Activity, and (b) pay to the Company in cash, within ten days after demand therefor, the difference between any amount actually paid therefor by you and the Fair Market Value (determined as of the date that the SARs were exercised) of all shares of Common Stock that you have disposed of that were issued pursuant to these Terms and Conditions. The Plan defines Detrimental Activity as any conduct or activity, whether or not related to the business of the Parker Companies, that is determined in individual cases, by the Committee or its express delegate, to be detrimental to the interests of the Parker Companies, including without limitation (i) rendering of services to an organization or engaging in a business that is, in the judgment of the Committee or its express delegate, in competition with the Company; (ii) disclosure to anyone outside of the Company, or the use for any purpose other than the Company’s business, of confidential information or material related to the Company, whether acquired during or after employment with the Company; (iii) fraud, embezzlement, theft-in-office or other illegal activity; or (iv) violation of the Company’s Code of Ethics.

Any economic or other benefit to you under these Terms and Conditions or the Plan shall not be taken into account in determining any benefits to which you may be entitled under any profit-sharing, retirement or other benefit or compensation plan maintained by the Parker Companies and shall not affect the amount of any life insurance coverage available to any beneficiary under any life insurance plan covering employees of the Parker Companies. Without limiting the foregoing, by voluntarily acknowledging and accepting your award of SARs, you agree that no benefits accruing under your Award Agreement, these Terms and Conditions or the Plan will be reflected in any severance or indemnity payments that the Parker Companies may make or be required to make to you in the future, regardless of the jurisdiction in which you may be located.

To the extent the Parker Companies are required to withhold any federal, state, local, foreign or other taxes in connection with the delivery of shares of Common Stock under these Terms and Conditions, then the Company or Subsidiary (as applicable) may, at its discretion, retain a number of shares of Common Stock otherwise deliverable hereunder with a value equal to the required withholding (based on the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock on the date of delivery); provided that in no event shall the value of the shares of Common Stock retained exceed the minimum amount of taxes required to be withheld or such other amount that will not result in a negative accounting impact.

11.      Beneficiary Designation . To the extent permitted by the Committee, in its sole discretion, you shall have the right to designate one or more beneficiaries to receive all or part of any shares of Common Stock underlying the SARs in the event of your death. Any beneficiary designation permitted by the Committee shall be effective when it is submitted in writing to the Committee during the Participant's lifetime on a form prescribed by the Committee. The submission of a new beneficiary designation shall cancel all prior beneficiary designations. Any finalized divorce or marriage subsequent to the date of a beneficiary designation shall revoke such designation, unless in the case of divorce your previous spouse was not designated as beneficiary and unless in the case of marriage your new spouse was previously designated as beneficiary. If you are married, your spouse shall consent to any designation of a beneficiary other than the spouse, and the spouse's consent shall be witnessed by a notary public. If you fail to designate a beneficiary as may be permitted by the Committee, or if such beneficiary designation is revoked by marriage, divorce, or otherwise without execution of a new designation, or if every person designated as beneficiary predeceases you or dies prior to the exercise of your SARs, then the Company shall issue any Common Stock payable under your SARs to the estate of the last to die of you and any beneficiaries.

The Company intends that the Award Agreement and these Terms and Conditions be exempt from the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and they will be interpreted, construed and administered accordingly.

14.    Amendments . Subject to the terms of the Plan, the Committee may amend these Terms and Conditions upon written notice to you. Any amendment to the Plan shall be deemed to be an amendment to these Terms and Conditions to the extent that the amendment is applicable hereto.

the Committee determines that such amendment is necessary or advisable to conform the Plan or these Terms and Conditions to any present or future law, regulation or rule applicable to the Plan.

15.    Severability .

Any dispute, disagreement or question which arises under or as a result of, or in any way relates to, the interpretation, construction or application of the terms of the Plan, the Award Agreement or these Terms and Conditions will be determined and resolved by the Committee. Such determination and resolution by the Committee will be final, binding and conclusive for all purposes.

Exhibit 10(g)



Parker-Hannifin Corporation
Long-Term Incentive Performance Plan Under the Performance Bonus Plan
(as Amended and Restated)

1.      Effective Date and Purpose. Parker-Hannifin Corporation, an Ohio corporation (the "Company"), adopted the Parker-Hannifin Corporation Long-Term Incentive Performance Plan as Amended and Restated Under the Performance Bonus Plan (the "Plan") effective as of January 20, 2016, and the Plan is amended and restated as set forth herein, effective as of January 23, 2019. The purpose of the Plan is to attract and retain key executives for the Company and to provide such persons with incentives for superior performance in the form of an opportunity to earn an award of shares of Parker-Hannifin Common Stock (“Shares”) that qualifies as a Long-Term Incentive Bonus (as defined in the Company's Performance Bonus Plan), while preserving the ability of the Company to deduct Long-Term Incentive Bonuses paid under this Plan as "performance-based compensation" within the meaning of Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code. This Plan and each Award Opportunity granted hereunder shall be subject to the terms and conditions set forth below and the terms and conditions of the Company's Performance Bonus Plan and the Stock Incentive Plan. Capitalized terms not defined in this Plan shall have the meanings set forth in the Performance Bonus Plan or the Stock Incentive Plan, as applicable.

2.      Eligibility . The Committee shall designate the Participants, if any, for each Performance Period. An Eligible Officer who is designated as a Participant for a given Performance Period is not guaranteed of being selected as a Participant for any other Performance Period.

3.      Establishment of Award Opportunities. Not later than the 90th day of each Performance Period and subject to the terms and conditions of Section 5 of the Performance Bonus Plan (including the limits on a Participant's maximum Long-Term Incentive Bonuses with respect to the Performance Period), the Committee shall establish the Maximum Shares and Target Shares for each Participant's Award Opportunity for the Performance Period. The Committee shall provide a Notice of Award to each Participant as soon as practical following the establishment of the Maximum Shares and Target Shares under the Participant's Award Opportunity for the Performance Period.

4.      Dividend Equivalent Units . From and after the Grant Date and until the earlier of (i) the time when the Award Opportunity is paid in accordance with Section 6 hereof or (ii) the time when your right to payment of the Award Opportunity is forfeited in accordance with Section 7 hereof, on the date that the Company pays a cash dividend (if any) to holders of shares of Common Stock generally, you shall be credited with a number of additional Target Shares Granted (the “Dividend Equivalent Units”) determined by dividing the aggregate amount of the cash dividend that would be payable on such date to a holder of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of your unpaid Target Shares Granted by the closing price per share of the Company's Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the last trading day preceding the dividend payment date. Any such Dividend Equivalent Units will be considered Target Shares Granted for purposes of these Terms and Conditions and will be subject to all of the terms, conditions and restrictions set forth herein.






5.      Determination of Amount Payable Under Award Opportunities.

A.      Committee Certification of Management Objectives. Subject to potential reduction as set forth in Section 5.B and further subject to the other terms and conditions of this Plan, the full number of Maximum Shares granted to a Participant with respect to a Performance Period shall be earned as of the last day of such Performance Period, provided that (i) following the end of the Performance Period, the Committee has certified that the Company has achieved either (a) average Return on Average Equity of 4% during the Performance Period, or (b) average Free Cash Flow Margin of 4% during the Performance Period; and (ii) the Participant has been continuously employed by the Company and its Affiliates through the last day of the Performance Period.

B.      Committee Discretion to Reduce Long-Term Incentive Awards. Notwithstanding Section 5.A, the actual number of Shares payable to a Participant with respect to a Performance Period may be reduced (including a reduction to zero) by the Committee in its sole and absolute discretion based on such factors as the Committee determines to be appropriate, including, without limitation, the Company's performance with respect to the performance measures (the "Peer Performance Measures") set out below, with the number of a Participant's Target Shares under an Award Opportunity allocated to each of the Peer Performance Measures in proportion to the percentages set out below. The Peer Performance Measures shall be determined for the Company at the conclusion of the Performance Period, in comparison to the performance of the members of the Company's Peer Group, determined for each member of the Peer Group based on its performance at the conclusion of the three fiscal year period of such company ending with or immediately prior to the conclusion of the Performance Period:

Peer Performance Measure:
Weight:
Revenue Growth
20%
Earnings Per Share Growth
40%
Average Return on Invested Capital
40%
  
It is the intention of the Committee that the Committee will exercise its discretion as it deems appropriate to reduce the number of Shares that may be delivered to a Participant with respect to each Performance Period based upon the Company's percentile ranking among the members of the Peer Group with respect to each Peer Performance Measure in accordance with the following table; provided, however, that the Committee reserves the right to deviate from such approach and may exercise its discretion to reduce the number Shares that may be delivered to a Participant with respect to each Performance Period, if any, based on such other factors as the Committee in its sole and absolute discretion determines to be appropriate:

Company Percentile Ranking Among Peer Group:
% of Allocable Target Shares Earned:
75th percentile or higher
200%
50th percentile
100% (Target Shares)
35th percentile
50%
lower than 35th percentile
0%






To the extent that the Company's percentile ranking among the members of the Peer Group with respect to a Peer Performance Measure is between the 35th and the 50th percentile, or between the 50th and the 75th percentile, it is currently intended that the Committee will exercise its discretion to determine the appropriate percentage of the allocable Target Shares that are earned by straight-line interpolation between the percentages set out in the table above.

6.      Payment of Awards. Except as otherwise provided in this Plan, during the fourth month following the end of the applicable Performance Period, the Company shall deliver to each Participant the Shares, if any, that the Committee has determined (in accordance with Section 5) to be payable with respect to any Award Opportunity.

7.      Terminations. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 7 or Section 8, a Participant must remain continuously employed by the Company and its Affiliates through the last day of a Performance Period in order to be entitled to receive payment of any Long-Term Incentive Bonus pursuant to this Plan for such Performance Period.
A.      Qualifying Retirement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a Participant's termination of employment during a Performance Period due to a Qualifying Retirement with respect to such Performance Period, the Participant will be entitled to receive the Award Opportunity, if any, that the Committee determines (in accordance with Section 5) to be payable for such Performance Period, as if the Participant had remained continuously employed through the end of the Performance Period. Any such Award Opportunity will be payable at the time provided in Section 6, following the certification of the achievement of the management objectives by the Committee in accordance with Section 5.A.
B.      Death, Disability, Termination Without Cause, Other Retirement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a Participant's termination of employment during a Performance Period due to death, Disability, termination of employment by the Company without Cause, or Other Retirement, the Participant will be entitled to receive a prorated Long-Term Incentive Bonus for that Performance Period equal to the product of the amount of the Award Opportunity, if any, determined to be payable by the Committee pursuant to Section 5 multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full months of continuous employment during the Performance Period and the denominator of which is 36. Any such prorated bonus will be payable at the time provided in Section 6, following the certification of the achievement of the management objectives by the Committee in accordance with Section 5.A.

C.      Other Terminations. Except as otherwise provided pursuant to Section 8, in the event of a Participant's termination of employment during a Performance Period for any reason other than Qualifying Retirement, Other Retirement, death, Disability, or termination of employment by the Company without Cause, the Participant will forfeit his or her Award Opportunity for such Performance Period, without any further action or notice.

8.      Change in Control. In the event of a Change in Control (as defined in the Stock Incentive Plan and including the date immediately prior to an "Anticipatory Termination" as defined therein) of the Company during a Performance Period, each Participant then holding an outstanding Award Opportunity granted under this Plan for such Performance Period shall receive payment of his or her Award Opportunity as follows: (a) within fifteen (15) days following the date of the Change in Control, each such Participant shall receive a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of Target Shares subject to such Award Opportunity; and (b) within





forty-five (45) days after the date of such Change in Control, each such Participant shall receive a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock that would be payable in accordance with Section 5 if the Company had achieved the management objectives described in Section 5.A for the Performance Period, the Committee had exercised its discretion to reduce the number of shares of Common Stock payable in accordance with Section 5.B based upon the Company's percentile ranking among the Peer Group with respect to the Peer Performance Measures as described therein, and the Company’s percentile ranking among the Peer Group for each of those Peer Performance Measures during the Performance Period through the end of the fiscal quarter immediately preceding the date of the Change in Control continued throughout the Performance Period at the same level; over (ii) the number of Target Shares subject to such Award Opportunity.

9.      Promotions and New Hires. With respect to a Participant who is newly hired or is promoted by the Company during a Performance Period, the Committee shall grant an Award Opportunity, or adjust an Award Opportunity previously granted, to such Participant for such Performance Period pursuant to the provisions of this Section 9; provided, however, that no Award Opportunity shall be granted or adjusted in such a manner as to cause any Long-Term Incentive Bonus payable under this Plan to fail to qualify as "performance-based compensation" within the meaning of section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code and Section 1.162-27 of the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder.

A.      Pro-Rated Award Opportunities for Newly-Eligible Executives. A Participant who is granted an Award Opportunity more than 90 days after the beginning of the Performance Period, either because the Participant is a newly hired Eligible Officer or is promoted into an Eligible Officer position, will be granted an Award Opportunity under the Plan for such Performance Period based on the number of Maximum Shares and Target Shares established by the Committee during the first 90 days of the Performance Period for the Participant's grade level, with the number of Maximum Shares and Target Shares pro-rated based on the ratio of the number of full months remaining in the Performance Period on and after the date of hire or promotion (as applicable) to the total number of months in the Performance Period. For any salary grade created between the salary grades for which the Committee has established the number of Maximum Shares and Target Shares as described above, straight-line interpolation shall be used to determine the pro-rated number of Maximum Shares and Target Shares in accordance with this Section 9.A.

B.      Adjustments to Outstanding Award Opportunities. If a Participant is promoted after the beginning of a Performance Period, the Participant's outstanding Award Opportunity granted for such Performance Period will be adjusted, effective as of the date of such promotion, based on the number of Maximum Shares and Target Shares established by the Committee during the first 90 days of the Performance Period for the Participant's grade level. The adjustments to each such Participant's Award Opportunity shall be pro-rated on a monthly basis, with the number of Maximum Shares and Target Shares for the Participant's original position applicable for the number of full months preceding the effective date of the promotion and the number of Maximum Shares and Target Shares for the Participant's new position applicable for the remaining number of months in the Performance Period. For any salary grade created between the salary grades for which the Committee has established the number of Maximum Shares and Target Shares as described above, straight-line interpolation shall be used to determine the pro-rated number of Maximum Shares and Target Shares in accordance with this Section 9.B.






C.      Negative Discretion. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 9, the Committee retains the discretion to reduce the amount of any Long-Term Incentive Bonus, including a reduction of such amount to zero. By way of illustration, and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Committee may, in its discretion, determine (i) not to grant a pro-rated Award Opportunity pursuant to Section 9.A above, (ii) not to adjust an outstanding Award Opportunity pursuant to Section 9.B above, (iii) to grant a pro-rated Award Opportunity in a smaller amount than would otherwise be provided by Section 9.A above, or (iv) to adjust an outstanding Award Opportunity to produce a smaller Long-Term Incentive Award than would otherwise be provided by Section 9.B above.

10.      Plan Administration. The Committee shall be responsible for administration of the Plan. The Committee is authorized to interpret the Plan, to prescribe, amend and rescind regulations relating to the Plan, and to make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan, but only to the extent not contrary to the express provisions of the Plan, the Performance Bonus Plan and the Stock Incentive Plan. Determinations, interpretations or other actions made or taken by the Committee pursuant to the provisions of the Plan shall be final, binding and conclusive for all purposes and upon all Participants, Eligible Officers, Beneficiaries and all other persons who have or claim an interest herein. The Committee may, in its discretion, but only to the extent permitted by 162(m) of the Code and applicable law, delegate to one or more directors or employees of the Company any of the Committee’s authority under the Plan. The acts of any such delegates shall be treated under this Plan as acts of the Committee with respect to any matters so delegated, and any reference to the Committee in the Plan shall be deemed a reference to any such delegates with respect to any matters so delegated.

11.      Tax Withholding. Each Participant is responsible for any federal, state, local, foreign or other taxes with respect to any Long-Term Incentive Bonus payable under the Plan. To the extent the Company is required to withhold any federal, state, local, foreign or other taxes in connection with the delivery of Common Stock under this Plan, then the Company may, in its sole discretion, (a) retain a number of Shares otherwise deliverable hereunder with a value equal to the required withholding (based on the Fair Market Value (as defined in the Stock Incentive Plan) of the Common Stock on the applicable date), (b) facilitate a sale of Shares payable pursuant to the Award Opportunity to cover such tax withholding obligation, or (c) apply any other withholding method determined by the Company; provided that in no event shall the value of the Shares retained exceed the minimum amount of taxes required to be withheld or such other amount that will not result in a negative accounting impact.

12.      Unfunded Plan. Each Award Opportunity granted under this Plan represents only a contingent right to receive all or a portion of the number of Maximum Shares granted subject to the terms and conditions of the Notice of Award, the Plan, the Performance Bonus Plan and the Stock Incentive Plan. Nothing in this Plan shall be construed to create a trust or to establish or evidence any Participant's claim of any right to payment of a Long-Term Incentive Bonus other than as an unsecured general creditor with respect to any payment to which he or she may be entitled under this Plan.

13.      Rights of Employer. Neither anything contained in this Plan nor any action taken under this Plan shall be construed as a contract of employment or as giving any Participant or Eligible Officer any right to continued employment with the Company or any Affiliate.






14.      Nontransferability. Except as otherwise provided in this Plan, the benefits provided under the Plan may not be alienated, assigned, transferred, pledged or hypothecated by or to any person or entity, and these benefits shall be exempt from the claims of creditors of any Participant or other claimants and from all orders, decrees, levies, garnishment or executions against any Participant to the fullest extent allowed by law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent permitted by the Company, a Participant may designate a Beneficiary or Beneficiaries (both primary and contingent) to receive, in the event of the Participant's death, any Shares remaining to be delivered with respect to the Participant under the Plan. The Participant shall have the right to revoke any such designation and to re-designate a Beneficiary or Beneficiaries in such manner as may be prescribed by the Company.

15.      Successors. The rights and obligations of the Company under the Plan shall inure to the benefit of, and shall be binding upon, the successors and assigns of the Company.

16.      Governing Law. The Plan and all Award Opportunities shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Ohio, but without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

17.      Amendment or Termination. The Committee reserves the right, at any time, without either the consent of, or any prior notification to, any Participant, Eligible Officer or other person, to amend, suspend or terminate the Plan or any Award Opportunity granted thereunder, in whole or in part, in any manner, and for any reason; provided that any such amendment shall be subject to approval by the shareholders of the Company to the extent required to satisfy the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, and provided further that any such amendment shall not, after the end of the 90-day period described in Section 3 of the Plan, cause the amount payable under an Award Opportunity to be increased as compared to the amount that would have been paid in accordance with the terms established as of the end of such period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment, suspension or termination of the Plan following a Change in Control (as defined in the Stock Incentive Plan) may adversely affect in a material way any Award Opportunity that was outstanding on the date of the Change in Control, without the consent of the affected Participant.

18.      Claw-back Policy. Each Award Opportunity granted, and each Long-Term Incentive Bonus paid, pursuant to this Plan shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Claw-back Policy.

19.      Section 409A of the Code. It is the Company's intent that each Long-Term Incentive Bonus payable under this Plan shall be exempt from the requirements of Section 409A of the Code under the "short-term deferral" exception set out in Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) of the Treasury Regulations. The Plan shall be interpreted and administered in a manner consistent with such intent.
20.      Plan and Performance Bonus Plan Terms Control. In the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of any Notice of Award and the terms and conditions of the Plan, the terms and conditions of the Plan shall prevail. In the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of any Notice of Award or of this Plan and the terms and conditions of the Performance Bonus Plan, the terms and conditions of the Performance Bonus Plan shall prevail to the extent necessary for Long-Term Incentive Bonuses paid under this Plan to qualify as "performance-based compensation" for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Code and Section





1.162-27 of the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder. In the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of any Notice of Award and the terms and conditions of the Stock Incentive Plan, the terms and conditions of the Stock Incentive Plan shall prevail.

21.      Severability. If any provision of the Plan is held invalid, void or unenforceable, the same shall not affect, in any respect whatsoever, the validity of any other provisions of the Plan.

22.      Waiver. The waiver by the Company of any breach of any provision of the Plan by a Participant shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach.

23.      Captions. The captions of the sections of the Plan are for convenience only and shall not control or affect the meaning or construction of any of its provisions.

24.      Consent to Transfer Personal Data . By acknowledging an Award Opportunity, each Participant will voluntarily acknowledge and consent to the collection, use, processing and transfer of personal data as described in this Section 24. Participants are not obliged to consent to such collection, use, processing and transfer of personal data. However, failure to provide the consent may affect the Participant's ability to participate in the Plan. The Company and its Affiliates hold certain personal information about each Participant, that may include name, home address and telephone number, fax number, email address, family size, marital status, sex, beneficiary information, emergency contacts, passport / visa information, age, language skills, drivers license information, date of birth, birth certificate, social security number or other employee identification number, nationality, C.V.

These recipients may be located throughout the world, including the United States. By acknowledging an Award Opportunity, each Participant will authorize such third parties to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the purposes of implementing, administering and managing the Participant's participation in the Plan, including any requisite transfer of such Data as may be required for the administration of the Plan and/or the subsequent holding of shares of stock on the Participant's behalf to a broker or other third party with whom the Participant may elect to deposit any shares of stock acquired pursuant to the Plan. A Participant may, at any time, review Data, require any necessary amendments to it or withdraw the consents herein in writing by contacting the Company; however, withdrawing such consent may affect the Participant's ability to participate in the Plan.

25.      Notification of Change in Personal Data . If your address or contact information changes prior to the delivery of any Shares pursuant to an Award Opportunity, the Company must be notified in order to administer the Plan and such Award Opportunity.

By acknowledging an Award Opportunity, each Participant will consent to any and all procedures the Company has established or may establish for an electronic signature system for delivery and acceptance of any such documents that the Company may elect to deliver, and each Participant will agree that his or her electronic signature is the same as, and shall have the same force and effect as, his or her manual signature. By acknowledging an Award Opportunity, each Participant will consent and agree that any such procedures and delivery may be effected by a third party engaged by the Company to provide administrative services related to the Plan.
