SEPARATION AGREEMENT AND GENERAL RELEASE
This Separation Agreement and General Release (“Agreement”) is made by and between Dennis
Martin (“Employee”) and Federal Signal Corporation on behalf of itself and each of its subsidiaries
(collectively, the “Company”). The signatories to this Agreement are referred to jointly as the “Parties”
and individually as “Party.”
WHEREAS, Employee voluntarily resigned from his employment and offices with the Company
effective December 31, 2016 (the “Termination Date”);
WHEREAS, in recognition of Employee’s service, Company desires to provide Employee with
certain consideration to which Employee would not otherwise be entitled in exchange for Employee’s
promises contained herein; and
WHEREAS, without either Party admitting or conceding liability or wrongdoing of any kind, the
Parties mutually wish to compromise, resolve, and settle all possible disputes and claims on the terms
set forth in this Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants, mutual promises, and agreement
contained herein, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:
1. Employee’s employment with Company ends on the Termination Date pursuant to his
voluntary resignation, thereby discontinuing the employment relationship between the Parties on the
Termination Date. Whether Employee signs this Agreement or not, Company shall pay Employee for all
earned but unused vacation days, and all earned but unpaid salary, less applicable taxes and
withholdings, as of the Termination Date, as part of his final compensation.
2. Provided Employee executes and does not thereafter revoke this Agreement pursuant
to Section 23 of this Agreement: (a) Employee’s separation shall be deemed a “retirement” for
purposes of Employee’s outstanding equity and incentive compensation awards with an effective date
of retirement of December 31, 2016; (b) certain of Employee’s Non-Qualified Stock Option Award
Agreements are hereby amended as set forth in the Schedule of Amendments contained within Exhibit
A; (c) Employee’s 2015 and 2016 Performance Share Unit Award Agreements are amended and restated
as reflected in the Amended and Restated Performance Share Unit Award Agreements contained within
Exhibit B; and (d) notwithstanding Employee’s employment cessation, Employee shall remain eligible to
be considered for an annual cash bonus related to 2016 performance under the Company’s Short-Term
Incentive Bonus Plan (“STIP”) based on actual performance, with any payment to be made at the same
time as other 2016 STIP participants are paid (i.e., in or around March 2017).
3. Employee, on his own behalf and on behalf of all of his personal representatives, heirs,
estate, executors, transferees, agents, attorneys, successors, and assigns, hereby releases and forever
discharges Company and its parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, successors, assigns, and its and their past,
present, and future agents, attorneys, representatives, principals, directors, partners, members,
shareholders, officers, owners, and employees (collectively the “Releasees”), from any and all claims,
causes of action, demands, damages, or liability of any nature whatsoever, known or unknown,
Page 2 of 7
suspected or unsuspected, disclosed or undisclosed, arising or which could have occurred from the
beginning of time to the date on which Employee signs this Agreement, including but not limited to
those which arise out of, concern, or relate in any way to his employment or the cessation of his
employment with Company and/or any other Releasee. For instance, without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, the matters released and forever discharged herein include but are not limited to: (a)
claims arising under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (“ADEA”),
the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, the
Rehabilitation Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Family and Medical Leave Act, the Civil Rights
Act of 1991, the Genetic Information Non-Discrimination Act, Sections 1981 through 1988 of Title 42 of
the United States Code, the Illinois Human Rights Act, the Right to Privacy in the Workplace Act, the
Illinois Health and Safety Act, the Illinois Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, the Illinois
One Day Rest in Seven Act, the Illinois Union Employee Health and Benefits Protection Act, the Illinois
Employment Contract Act, the Illinois Labor Dispute Act, the Victims' Economic Security and Safety Act,
the Illinois Whistleblower Act, the Illinois Equal Pay Act the Cook County Human Rights Ordinance, the
City of Chicago Human Rights Ordinance, and/or any other federal, state, municipal, or local
employment discrimination, retaliation, and/or harassment statutes, laws, regulations, and ordinances
(each as amended); (b) claims arising under any other federal, state, municipal, or local statute, law,
ordinance or regulation (each as amended); (c) any other claim whatsoever including, but not limited to,
claims for severance pay under any voluntary or involuntary severance/separation plan, policy, or
program maintained by Company and/or any other Releasee, including but not limited to the Executive
General Severance Pay Plan and/or the Non-Executive General Severance Pay Plan; (d) claims for
attorneys’ fees; and (e) claims based upon breach of contract, unpaid bonus, wrongful termination,
retaliation, defamation, intentional infliction of emotional distress, tort, tortious interference with
contract, tortious interference with prospective economic relations, personal injury, invasion of privacy,
violation of public policy, retaliatory discharge, wrongful discharge, whistleblowing, libel, slander,
defamation, negligence and/or any other common law, statutory, or other claim whatsoever arising out
of or relating to his employment with and/or separation from employment with Company and/or any
other Releasee. To the extent permitted by law, Employee further waives, releases, and discharges
Company and the other Releasees from any reinstatement rights which he has or could have.
Excluded from this release are any claims which cannot be waived or released in this manner as
a matter of law, including claims for any workers’ compensation injury (the existence of which Employee
is unaware), and the right to file an administrative charge of discrimination. However, Employee agrees
that he is hereby waiving and releasing his right to any monetary recovery should an administrative
agency or anyone else pursue a charge or other claim on his behalf against Company and/or any other
Releasee. Moreover, this Agreement shall not operate to waive rights, causes of action, or claims under
the ADEA, if those rights, causes of action, or claims arise after the date on which Employee signs this
Agreement. Nor shall this Agreement preclude Employee from challenging the validity of the
Agreement under the ADEA.
Nothing in this Agreement prohibits Employee from reporting possible violations of federal or
state law or regulation to any governmental agency or entity, including but not limited to the
Department of Justice, the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Congress and any agency Inspector
Page 3 of 7
General, or comparable state agency, or making other disclosures that are protected under the
whistleblower provisions of federal or state law or regulation.
No federal, state or local government agency is a party to this Agreement and none of the
provisions of this Agreement restrict or in any way affect a government agency’s authority to investigate
or seek relief in connection with any of the released claims. However, if a government agency were to
pursue any matters falling within the release of claims, which it is free to do, Employee and the
Company agree that this Agreement shall control as the exclusive remedy and full settlement of all
released claims between Employee and the Company. The Agreement is binding as between two private
parties, the Company and Employee. Therefore, this Agreement affects the two parties’ rights only, with
no impact or restrictions on any third parties, including any government agency.
4. Employee agrees that if he pursues a lawsuit on a claim that was released pursuant to
this Agreement, in addition to any other remedies and recourse available to Company and/or the other
Releasees, this Agreement will serve as a complete defense to, and a basis to dismiss, any such lawsuit.
Further, (other than in connection with a lawsuit brought under the ADEA) Company and/or any other
Releasee will be entitled to recover from Employee its reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs in the
successful defense of any such lawsuit or the enforcement of this Agreement.
5. Employee agrees that, to the extent that any federal, state or local taxes may be or
become due or payable as a result of the separation payments and other actions set forth in Section 2 of
this Agreement, Employee shall be solely responsible for paying such taxes. Employee further agrees
that Employee will indemnify the Releasees from, and hold them harmless against any claim, liability,
penalty or tax consequence made by any local, state or federal administrative agency or court of
competent jurisdiction for such unpaid taxes, including costs and counsel fees incurred by the Releasees
as a result of such claims.
6. Employee represents, warrants, and agrees that, together with the payment to
Employee of Employee’s salary and all earned but unused vacation days Employee earned through the
Termination Date less applicable taxes and withholdings, the payments to Employee provided for herein
fulfill and discharge all compensation obligations of Company and/or any other Releasee to Employee of
any kind or character including, but not limited to, salary, unpaid vacation, bonus, STIP payment,
severance pay, salary continuation, overtime compensation, compensatory time, notice, incentive
compensation, and any other compensation and benefits to which Employee may have been entitled at
and as of the Termination Date under any plan, policy, program or contract. Employee’s participation in
Company’s pension, 401(k), and Savings Restoration Plan shall continue under the terms of those plans.
Employee further acknowledges, represents, warrants, and agrees that Employee is not entitled to any
other compensation, benefits, or sums from Company and/or any other Releasee.
7. Employee represents, warrants, and agrees that: (a) he has not filed or otherwise
cooperated in the authorization of the filing of any complaints, charges, or lawsuits against Company
and/or any other Releasee; (b) he has the authority to enter into this Agreement as a binding obligation
on himself and his personal representatives, heirs, estate, executors, transferees, agents, attorneys,
successors, and assigns; (c) he has not assigned any rights, claims, demands, charges, obligations,
damages, losses, causes of action, or suits of any kind and/or description, legal and/or equitable, against
Page 4 of 7
Company and/or any other Releasee to any person or entity; (d) he has been, and is hereby, advised in
writing to consult with any attorney of his own choosing prior to signing this Agreement; and (e) he has
returned to Company all Confidential Information and all Company property (including information
technology equipment, documents, records, and other physical or personal property) in his actual or
constructive possession, custody, or control and has not retained any copies.
8. Employee acknowledges that after the Termination Date, he shall not represent himself
to be an employee of Company or any other Releasee nor take any action which may bind Company or
any other Releasee with regard to any customer, supplier, vendor or any other party with whom
Employee has had contact while performing his duties as an employee or consultant of Company.
9. Employee agrees not to engage in any form of conduct, or make any statements or
representations, that disparage, demean, impugn, or otherwise harm the reputation or goodwill of
Company and/or any other Releasee, including but not limited to any current or former director, officer,
employee or consultant thereof. Nothing in this Agreement prevents Employee from providing truthful
statements in any legal proceeding or investigation by a governmental agency. Company shall not
authorize any employee to engage in any form of conduct, or make any statements or representations
that disparage, demean, impugn, or otherwise harm the reputation or goodwill of Employee. Nothing in
this Agreement prevents Company or its employees from providing truthful statements in any legal
proceeding or investigation by a government agency.
This Section does not, in any way, restrict or impede Employee from exercising protected rights,
to the extent that such rights cannot be waived by agreement or from complying with any applicable
law or regulation or a valid order of a court of competent jurisdiction or an authorized government
agency, provided that such compliance does not exceed that required by the law, regulation or order.
10. From the Termination Date through December 31, 2019, Employee agrees that he will
not, directly or indirectly: (a) hire away or participate or assist in the hiring away of any person
employed by Company and/or any other Releasee on the Termination Date; or (b) solicit or encourage
any person employed by Company and/or any other Releasee on or after the Termination Date to leave
the employ of Company and/or any other Releasee.
11. From the Termination Date through December 31, 2019, Employee agrees that he will
not, directly or indirectly, anywhere in the United States, in the same or similar capacity or role as
performed by Employee for Company, engage in or assist any business or line of business that competes
with the “Business of Company,” whether as consultant, employee, officer, director, or representative.
For the purpose of this Section 11, the term “Business of Company” is limited to the business conducted
or contemplated to be conducted by each separate operating segment of Company to which Employee
provided services or was assigned during the last 12 months of Employee’s employment for Company.
The geographical restriction imposed is nationwide, and Employee expressly acknowledges and agrees
that Company is engaged in business nationwide and this restriction is reasonable and appropriate.
12. From the Termination Date through December 31, 2019, Employee agrees that he will
not, directly or indirectly: (a) solicit or accept business of the same or similar nature offered by Company
Page 5 of 7
from any Customer of Company; or (b) take any action to cause any Customer of Company to divert
business to a competitor of Company or decrease the amount of business it does with Company. For
purposes of the foregoing, “Customer of Company” means any customer, distributor, or partner of
Company with whom Employee did business with or had contact with (whether personally or jointly
with or through the coordinated effort of others) or about whom Employee had access to Confidential
Information, during the last twelve months of Employee’s employment with Company.
13. Employee agrees he will not at any time, directly or indirectly, disclose any Confidential
Information to any third party or otherwise use such Confidential Information for Employee’s own
benefit or the benefit of others. For purposes of this Agreement, “Confidential Information” means
non-public information regarding or belonging to Company and/or any other Releasee or its or their
customers, contractors, suppliers, and vendors, including but not limited to business information,
financial information and data, trade secrets, business plans, proposals and/or strategies, customer
information (including contact information), pricing and margin information, product and service
information, software, hardware, personnel information, schematics, designs, drawings, blueprints, and
data. Confidential Information does not include information which is generally known to the public or
becomes known to the public (unless known through Employee’s actions or the actions of another
under a duty not to use or disclose).
Nothing in this Agreement prohibits Employee from reporting possible violations of federal or
state laws or regulations to any government agency or entity (including but not limited to the Equal
Employment Opportunity Commission, the Illinois Department of Human Rights, the Securities and
Exchange Commission, the Internal Revenue Service, Congress, or any agency Inspector General), or
making disclosures to any government agency or entity that are protected under the whistleblower
protections of any applicable federal or state laws or regulations. Employee does not need prior
authorization of the Company to make any such reports or disclosure and is not required to notify the
Company that he has made such reports or disclosures.
14. Employee acknowledges and agrees that the temporal, geographic, and activity
restrictions set forth in Sections 9 through 13 of this Agreement are reasonable and not unduly
restrictive of his rights as an individual, that the Company has legitimate interests in protecting its trade
secrets, confidential information, and customer and employee relationships, and represents and
warrants that, as of the date Employee signs this Agreement, Employee has not breached any of the
provisions of this Agreement. Employee further acknowledges that in the event that he breaches any of
the provisions of Sections 9 through 13, such breach will result in immediate and irreparable harm to
the business and goodwill of Company and that damages, if any, and remedies at law for such breach
would be inadequate. Employee further acknowledges and agrees in the event that he breaches the
provisions of Sections 9 through 13: (a) Company will be entitled to temporary, preliminary, and
permanent injunctive relief against him and anyone else acting in concert with him without necessity of
bond (the right to which is hereby waived by Employee); (b) Company shall not be obligated to continue
the availability or payment of separation benefits or other actions provided in Section 2 of this
Agreement to Employee; and (c) Employee shall be obligated to pay to Company its costs, expenses,
and attorneys’ fees incurred in enforcing this Agreement.
Page 6 of 7
15. Employee agrees to make himself available, at mutually convenient times, to Company
and/or the other Releasees to provide reasonable cooperation and assistance with respect to areas and
matters in which Employee was involved or knowledgeable during his employment, including any
threatened or actual investigation, regulatory matter, and/or litigation, and to provide, if requested,
information and counsel relating to ongoing matters of interest. Company will, of course, take into
consideration Employee’s personal and business commitments, will give Employee as much advance
notice as reasonably possible, and ask that Employee be available at such time or times as are
reasonably convenient to Employee and Company. Company also agrees to reimburse Employee for his
actual out-of-pocket expenses incurred as a result of complying with this provision, subject to
Employee’s submission of documentation acceptable to Company substantiating the expenses.
However, no additional compensation shall be provided to Employee.
16. With the exceptions of agreements between the parties governing confidentiality, non-
solicitation of employees and/or customers, and non-competition which shall remain in full force and
effect, this Agreement contains the entire agreement between the Parties and any and all prior
agreements, representations, and understandings between the Parties, oral or written, express or
implied, with respect to the subject matter hereof are hereby superseded and merged herein. This
Agreement may not be revised or modified without the mutual written consent of the Parties.
17. Nothing contained in this Agreement, or the fact of its submission to Employee, shall be
construed as an admission of any liability, violation of law, or wrongdoing on the part of Company or any
other Releasee. Company and each other Releasee expressly deny any liability, violation of law, or
wrongdoing.
18. The provisions of this Agreement are severable and, if any part of it is found to be
unenforceable, such provision may be reformed by a Court of competent jurisdiction, to the extent
necessary to make it enforceable to the fullest extent of the law, and the rest of the Agreement shall
remain fully valid and enforceable. The language of all parts of this Agreement shall, in all cases, be
construed as a whole, according to its fair meaning, and not strictly for or against either Party.
19. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be
deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Signatures
received by facsimile or email transmission shall be treated as being as effective as original ink
signatures.
20. This Agreement is deemed made and entered into in the State of Illinois and in all
respects shall be interpreted, enforced, and governed under applicable federal law and, in the event
reference shall be made to State law or to the extent not preempted by federal law, the internal laws of
the State of Illinois shall apply without reference to its conflict of law provisions. Any dispute under this
Agreement shall be adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction in the State of Illinois.
21. The provisions of this Agreement shall survive any termination of this Agreement when
necessary to effectuate the intent and terms of this Agreement expressed herein.
Page 7 of 7
22. Employee represents, warrants, and agrees that he: (i) read this Agreement in its
entirety and understands all of its terms; (ii) has been and is hereby advised by this Agreement to
consult with an attorney before signing this Agreement, and has consulted with such counsel; (iii)
knowingly, freely, and voluntarily assents to all of the terms and conditions set out in this Agreement
including, without limitation, the waiver, release, and covenants contained herein including rights or
claims under the ADEA; (iv) is executing this Agreement, including the waiver and release, in exchange
for good and valuable consideration in addition to anything of value to which the Employee is otherwise

Agreement any time in advance of the expiration of the twenty-one (21) day period and thereby

shares of Stock payable with respect to vested PSUs, as determined under Section
2 above, that become earned under this Award shall become distributable as of the
end of the Performance Period and shall be paid no later than March 15, 2018;
provided however, that if it is impracticable to pay such shares of Stock by March
15, 2018 (e.g., the unavailability of audited financial statements or a Form S-8
PSU US
4/2015 4
registration statement for the shares), then the Administrator may delay payment
until it becomes administratively practicable to so do later that same year.
(b) The number of shares of Stock payable with respect to vested PSUs, as
determined under Section 2 above, that are earned prior to the end of the
Performance Period under Section 4B of this Award Agreement shall become
distributable on an accelerated basis on the date of the Change in Control.
Section 6. Stockholder Rights
Employee shall not have any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect
to PSUs until shares of Stock are issued to the Employee. No dividend equivalent rights are
provided under this Award Agreement.
Section 7. Beneficiary Designation
Employee may designate a beneficiary or beneficiaries (contingently, consecutively, or
successively) to receive any benefits that may be payable under this Award Agreement in the event
of Employee’s death and, from time to time, may change his or her designated beneficiary (“a
Beneficiary”). A Beneficiary may be a trust. A Beneficiary designation shall be made in writing in a
form prescribed by the Company and delivered to the Company while the Participant is alive. If
there is no designated Beneficiary surviving at the death of a Participant, payment of any death
benefit of a Participant shall be made to the persons and in the proportions which any death benefit
under the Federal Signal Corporation Employees’ Retirement Savings Plan is or would be payable.
In lieu of payment to Employee, a Beneficiary shall be paid shares of Stock under Section 5 at the
same time and in the same form as a Participant would have been paid but for Participant’s death.
Section 8. PSUs Non-Transferable
PSUs awarded hereunder shall not be transferable by Employee. Except as may be
required by the federal income tax withholding provisions of the Code or by the tax laws of any
State, the interests of Employee and his or her Beneficiaries under this Award Agreement are not
subject to the claims of their creditors and may not be voluntarily or involuntarily sold,
transferred, alienated, assigned, pledged, anticipated, or encumbered. Any attempt by Employee
or a Beneficiary to sell, transfer, alienate, assign, pledge, anticipate, encumber, charge or
otherwise dispose of any right to benefits payable hereunder shall be void.
Section 9. Adjustment in Certain Events
If there is any change in the Stock by reason of stock dividends, stock splits, mergers,
consolidations, reorganizations, combinations or exchanges of shares or the like, the number of
PSUs credited to Employee’s Performance Share Unit Account shall be adjusted as determined
by the Administrator so that the number of PSUs credited to Employee’s Performance Share
Unit Account after such an event shall equal the number of shares of Stock a stockholder would
own after such an event if the stockholder, at the time such an event occurred, had owned shares
of Stock equal to the number of PSUs credited to Employee’s Performance Share Unit Account
immediately before such an event.

Section 10. Tax Withholding
The Company shall not be obligated to transfer any shares of Stock until Employee pays
to the Company or a Subsidiary in cash, or any other form of property, including Stock,
acceptable to the Company, the amount required to be withheld from the wages of Employee
with respect to such shares. Employee may elect to have such withholding satisfied by a
reduction of the number of shares of Stock otherwise transferable under this Award Agreement
at such time, such reduction to be calculated based on the closing market price of the Stock on
the day Employee gives written notice of such election to the Company.
Section 11. Section 409A
This Award Agreement shall be construed consistent with the intention that it be exempt
from Section 409A of the Code (together with any Department of Treasury regulations and other
interpretive guidance issued thereunder, including without limitation any such regulations or
other guidance that may be issued after the date hereof, “Section 409A”). However,
notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or this Award Agreement, if at any time the
Administrator of the Plan determines that this Award (or any portion thereof) may be subject to
Section 409A, the Administrator of the Plan shall have the right in its sole discretion (without
any obligation to do so or to indemnify Employee or any other person for failure to do so) to
adopt such amendments to the Plan or this Award Agreement, or adopt other policies and
procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive effect), or take any
other actions, as the Administrator of the Plan determines are necessary or appropriate either for
this Award to be exempt from the application of Section 409A or to comply with the
requirements of Section 409A.
Section 12. Source of Payment
Shares of Stock transferable to Employee, or his or her Beneficiary, under this Award
Agreement may be either Treasury shares, authorized but unissued shares, or any combination of
such stock. The Company shall have no duties to segregate or set aside any assets to secure
Employee’s right to receive shares of Stock under this Award Agreement. Employee shall not
have any rights with respect to transfer of shares of Stock under this Award Agreement other than
the unsecured right to receive shares of Stock from the Company.
Section 13. Continuation of Employment
This Award Agreement shall not confer upon the Employee any right to continuation of
employment by the Company or its Subsidiaries, nor shall this Award Agreement interfere in any
way with the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ right to terminate the Employee’s employment at
any time.

AMENDED AND RESTATED AWARD AGREEMENT NO. 2016
This Award Agreement, which includes the attached cover page and Appendix A, effective as of the Date
of Grant, represents the grant of PSUs by the Company to Participant, pursuant to the provisions of the Plan.
The Company established the Plan pursuant to which, among other things, options, stock appreciation
rights, restricted stock and stock units, stock bonus awards, dividend equivalents and/or performance compensation
awards may be granted to eligible persons.
The Plan and this Award Agreement provide a complete description of the terms and conditions governing
the PSUs. If there is any inconsistency between the terms of this Award Agreement and the terms of the Plan, the
Plan’s terms shall completely supersede and replace the conflicting terms of this Award Agreement. All cap italized
terms shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Plan, unless specifically set forth otherwise herein.
The Board of Directors and the Committee have determined that the interests of the Company will be
advanced by encouraging and enabling certain of its employees to own shares of Stock, and that Participant is one of
those employees.
The Committee has determined that it is in the best interests of the Company to amend and restate the
original award agreement to address the impact of Participant’s retirement (as determined by the Committee) on the
original award.
Pursuant to Section 4 of the Plan, the Administrator has the authority to determine the terms and conditions
of the Award. This Award Agreement may be amended by the consent of the parties hereto.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of services rendered and the mutual covenants herein contained, the
parties agree as follows:

of employment by Disability) or Section 4B (in the case of Change-in-Control of this Award Agreement, as
applicable, at the time provided in Section 6 of this Award Agreement, to the extent that the rights to such shares are
vested at such time.

section thereto, of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and any successor thereto.

Section 2. Award
Subject to the terms of this Award Agreement, the Company awarded to Participant the number of PSUs
set forth on this Award Agreement, effective as of the Date of Grant set forth on such instrument. On and effective
December 31, 2016, in connection with Participant’s retirement (as determined by the Committee), the Company
and Participant agreed to the accelerated vesting of 19,747 PSUs originally awarded and to the forfeiture of the
remaining 39,494 PSUs originally awarded.
This Award entitles Participant to receive a whole number of shares of Stock as set forth on this Award
Agreement equal to a percentage, from zero to 200%, based on the Company’s performance against the performance
goals set forth, and as calculated in, Appendix A.
The number of shares of Stock determined based on the Company’s performance against the performance
goals set forth in Appendix A (or, if applicable, the formula set forth in Section 4A (in the case of death or
termination of employment by Disability) or the formula set forth in Section 4B (in the case of a Change-in-
Control)), shall be distributable as provided in Section 6 of this Award Agreement, but only to the extent the rights
to such shares are vested and earned under this Award Agreement.
This grant of PSUs shall not confer any right to Participant (or any other participant) to be granted PSUs or
other awards in the future under the Plan.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Award Agreement, the number of shares of Stock that may
be earned under this Award Agreement cannot exceed the maximum number of shares of Stock provided for under
the Plan.
Section 3. Bookkeeping Account
The Company shall record the number of vested PSUs subject to this Award Agreement to a bookkeeping
account for Participant (the “Performance Share Unit Account”), subject to adjustment based on performance as set
forth in Section 2 above. Participant’s Performance Share Unit Account shall be reduced by the number of PSUs

Section 4. Earning Vested PSUs
For the avoidance of doubt, if the Company fails to achieve a performance goal at the threshold level,
Participant shall be entitled to receive no shares of Stock subject to such performance goal, unless the deemed
performance provisions in this Section specifically modify such result.
If, during the Performance Period:
A. Participant dies or his or her employment terminates by reason of Disability, the number of earned
PSUs subject to the Award shall be equal to the number of vested PSUs that would have been earned by and payable
to Participant at the end of Performance Period based on actual Company performance during the entire
Performance Period.
B. A Change-in-Control occurs, the number of earned PSUs subject to this Award shall be the greater
of (1) 100% of the vested PSUs subject to this Award Agreement, regardless of actual performance or (2) the
number of vested PSUs that would have been earned by and payable to Participant for the Performance Period based
on the Company’s best estimate of projected Company performance through the end of the Performance Period,
PSU US

determined at the date of the Change-in-Control. In the event of a Change-in-Control following the Participant’s
death or Disability, the provisions of this Section 4B shall control.
Section 5. [Intentionally omitted].
Section 6. Distribution of Shares
A. Except as specifically provided to the contrary in Section 6B, the number of shares of Stock
payable with respect to vested PSUs, as determined under Section 2 above, that become earned under this Award
shall become distributable as of the end of the Performance Period and shall be paid no later than March 15, 2019,
provided however, that if it is impracticable to pay such shares of Stock by such date (e.g., due to the unavailability
of audited financial statements or a Form S-8 registration statement for the shares), then the Committee may delay
payment until it becomes administratively practicable to do so later that same year.
B. The number of shares of Stock payable with respect to vested PSUs, as determined under Section
2 above, that are earned prior to the end of the Performance Period under Section 4B of this Award Agreement shall
become distributable on an accelerated basis on the date of the Change-in-Control.
Section 7. Stockholder Rights
Participant shall not have any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to PSUs until
shares of Stock are issued to Participant. No dividend equivalent rights are provided under this Award Agreement.
Section 8. Beneficiary Designation
Participant may designate a beneficiary or beneficiaries (contingently or successively) to receive any
benefits that may be payable under this Award Agreement in the event of Participant’s death and, from time to time,
may change his or her designated beneficiary (a “Beneficiary”). A Beneficiary may be a trust. A Beneficiary
designation shall be made in writing in a form prescribed by the Company and delivered to the Company while
Participant is alive. In lieu of payment to Participant, a Beneficiary shall be paid shares of Stock under Section 6 at
the same time and in the same form as Participant would have been paid but for Participant’s death.
Section 9. Restrictions on Transfer
PSUs awarded hereunder shall not be transferable by Participant. Except as may be required by the federal
income tax withholding provisions of the Code or by the tax laws of any State, the interests of Participant and his or
her Beneficiary(ies) under this Award Agreement are not subject to the claims of their respective creditors and may
not be voluntarily or involuntarily sold, assigned, transferred, alienated, pledged, attached, encumbered or charged.
Any attempt by Participant or a Beneficiary to sell, assign, transfer, alienate, pledge, attach, encumber, charge or
otherwise dispose of any right to benefits payable hereunder shall be void.
Section 10. Adjustment in Certain Events
If there is any change in the Stock by reason of stock dividends or other distribution (whether in the form of
securities or other property), recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation,
split-up, split-off, combination, repurchase or exchange of Stock or other securities of the Company, or other similar
corporate transaction or event, or changes in applicable rules, rulings, regulations or other requirements of any
governmental body or securities exchange, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, make such adjustments to the
number of PSUs credited to Participant’s Performance Share Unit Account that it deems necessary or appropriate
and as it may deem equitable in Participant’s rights.
Section 11. Tax Withholding
The Company shall not be obligated to transfer any shares of Stock until Participant pays to the Company
or any of its Affiliates in cash, or any other form of property, including Stock, acceptable to the Company, the
amount required to be withheld from the wages or other amounts owing to Participant with respect to such shares.
Participant may elect to have such withholding satisfied by a reduction of the number of shares of Stock otherwise
transferable under this Award Agreement at such time, such reduction to be calculated based on the closing market
price of the Stock on the day Participant gives written notice of such election to the Company.
Section 12. Section 409A
This Award Agreement shall be construed consistent with the intention that it be exempt from Section
409A of the Code (together with any Department of Treasury regulations and other interpretive guidance issued
PSU US
1/2016 4

any other person for failure to do so) to adopt such amendments to the Plan or this Award Agreement, or adopt other
policies and procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive effect), or take any other
actions, as the Committee determines are necessary or appropriate either for this Award to be exempt from the
application of Section 409A or to comply with the requirements of Section 409A.

Award Agreement. Participant shall not have any rights with respect to transfer of shares of Stock under this Award
Agreement other than the unsecured right to receive shares of Stock from the Company.
Section 14. Continuation of Employment
This Award Agreement shall not confer upon Participant any right to continuation of employment by the
Company or its Affiliates, nor shall this Award Agreement interfere in any way with the Company’s or its Affiliates’
right to terminate Participant’s employment at any time.

terms and supersede all prior written or oral negotiations, commitments, representations and agreements with respect
thereto. The terms and conditions set forth in this Award Agreement may only be modified or amended in writing,

Section 17. Severability

unenforceable in any respect in any jurisdiction, such provision or provisions shall be automatically deemed
amended, but only to the extent necessary to render such provision or provisions valid, legal and enforceable in such
jurisdiction, and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Award Agreement shall
not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
