ZEBRA TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Note 1 Description of Business and Basis of Presentation

Zebra Technologies Corporation and its subsidiaries (“Zebra” or the “Company”) is a global leader providing innovative Enterprise Asset Intelligence (“EAI”) solutions in the Automatic Identification and Data Capture (“AIDC”) industry. We design, manufacture, and sell a broad range of products and solutions, as well as various workflow optimization solutions, including cloud-based software subscriptions and robotic automation solutions. We also provide a full range of services, including maintenance, technical support, repair, managed and professional services. End-users of our products, solutions and services include those in retail and e-commerce, manufacturing, transportation and logistics, healthcare, public sector, and other industries. We provide our products, solutions and services globally through a direct sales force and an extensive network of channel partners.

Management prepared these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements according to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information and notes. As permitted under Article 10 of Regulation S-X and the instructions of Form 10-Q, these consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and notes required by United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements, although management believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.

In the opinion of the Company, these interim financial statements include all adjustments (of a normal, recurring nature) necessary to fairly present its Consolidated Balance Sheet as of July 1, 2023, the Consolidated Statements of Operations, Comprehensive Income (Loss) and Stockholders’ Equity for the three and six months ended July 1, 2023 and July 2, 2022, and the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the six months ended July 1, 2023 and July 2, 2022. These results, however, are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2023.

In the second quarter, our advanced location technology solutions business, which is primarily comprised of radio frequency identification devices (“RFID”) and real-time location solution offerings (“RTLS”), moved from our Enterprise Visibility & Mobility (“EVM”) segment into our Asset Intelligence & Tracking (“AIT”) segment contemporaneous with a change in our organizational structure and management of the business. We have reported our segment results reflecting this change, including historical periods, on a comparable basis. This change does not have an impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Note 2 Significant Accounting Policies

For a discussion of our significant accounting policies, see Note 2, Significant Accounting Policies within Part II, Item 8. “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. There have been no changes to our significant accounting policies since our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Note 3 Revenues

The Company recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of goods, solutions or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration which it expects to receive for providing those goods, solutions or services.

Revenues for products are generally recognized upon shipment, whereas revenues for services and solution offerings are generally recognized over time by using an output or time-based method, assuming all other criteria for revenue recognition have been met. Revenues for software are recognized either upon delivery or over time using a time-based method, depending upon how control is transferred to the customer. In cases where a bundle of products, services, solutions and/or software are delivered to the customer, judgment is required to select the method of progress which best reflects the transfer of control.

In addition, refer to Note 18, Segment Information & Geographic Data for Net sales to customers by geographic region.

Performance Obligations
The Company’s remaining performance obligations relate to repair and support services, as well as software solutions. The aggregated transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations for arrangements with an original term exceeding one year was $1,130 million and $1,105 million, inclusive of deferred revenue, as of July 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. On average, remaining performance obligations as of July 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022 are expected to be recognized over a period of approximately two years.

Contract Balances
Progress on satisfying performance obligations under contracts with customers related to billed revenues is reflected on the Consolidated Balance Sheets in Accounts receivable, net. Progress on satisfying performance obligations under contracts with customers related to unbilled revenues (“contract assets”) is reflected on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as Prepaid expenses and other current assets for revenues expected to be billed within the next twelve months, and Other long-term assets for revenues expected to be billed thereafter. The total contract asset balances were $14 million and $16 million as of July 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. These contract assets result from timing differences between billing and satisfying performance obligations, as well as the impact of the allocation of the transaction price among performance obligations for contracts that include multiple performance obligations. Contract assets are evaluated for impairment and no impairment losses have been recognized during the three and six months ended July 1, 2023 and July 2, 2022, respectively.

Deferred revenue on the Consolidated Balance Sheets consists of payments and billings in advance of our performance. The combined short-term and long-term deferred revenue balances were $774 million and $758 million as of July 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. During the three and six months ended July 1, 2023, the Company recognized $114 million and $249 million in revenue, which was previously included in the beginning balance of deferred revenue as of December 31,
10

2022. During the three and six months ended July 2, 2022, the Company recognized $108 million and $237 million in revenue, which was previously included in the beginning balance of deferred revenue as of December 31, 2021.

Total Inventories, net$864 $860 

(1) Raw material inventories primarily consist of product components as well as supplies used in repair operations.

Note 5 Business Acquisitions

Matrox
During the second quarter of 2023, the Company finalized the purchase price allocation for its acquisition of Matrox Electronic Systems Ltd. (“Matrox”). The measurement period adjustments recorded in the current year, all relating to facts and circumstances existing as of the acquisition date, were insignificant.

Note 6 Investments

The carrying value of the Company’s long-term investments, which are included in Other long-term assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, was $113 million as of both July 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

The Company paid $1 million and $6 million for the purchase of long-term investments during the six months ended July 1, 2023 and July 2, 2022, respectively. Net gains and losses related to the Company’s long-term investments are included within Other (expense), net on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. There were no net gains or losses during the three months ended July 1, 2023. The Company recognized net losses of $1 million during the six months ended July 1, 2023. The Company did not recognize any net gains or losses during the three and six months ended July 2, 2022.

Note 7 Exit and Restructuring Costs
The Company expanded the scope of the 2022 Productivity Plan, which is still expected to be substantially completed in 2023, with a total cost now estimated to be at least $60 million. Total Exit and restructuring charges associated with the 2022 Productivity Plan to date were $36 million, including $14 million and $24 million recorded for the three and six months ended July 1, 2023, respectively. The Company’s obligations under the 2022 Productivity Plan are expected to be substantially settled by the first quarter of 2024 and are primarily reflected within Accrued liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

In addition, the Company initiated a voluntary retirement plan (“VRP”) applicable to retirement-eligible U.S. employees to generate incremental cost efficiencies. Employees who participate in the VRP agree to retire in 2023 in exchange for cash severance and other benefits that will be classified within Exit and restructuring on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company estimates the total cost of the VRP will be approximately $45 million and will be recorded in the third quarter aligned with the Company’s commitment to the VRP obligations. Payment obligations are expected to be substantially settled by the first quarter of 2024 and will be reflected within Accrued liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Note 8 Fair Value Measurements

Financial assets and liabilities are measured using inputs from three levels of the fair value hierarchy in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC Topic 820 established a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into the following three broad levels:
Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs (e.g. U.S. Treasuries and money market funds).
Level 2: Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted in active markets but corroborated by market data.
11

Level 3: Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.
In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs to the extent possible. In addition, the Company considers counterparty credit risk in the assessment of fair value.
The Company’s financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value as of July 1, 2023, are classified below (in millions):

Liabilities related to the deferred compensation plan35 — — 35 
Total Liabilities at fair value$40 $14 $— $54 

(1)The fair value of the foreign exchange contracts is calculated as follows:
Fair value of regular forward contracts associated with forecasted sales hedges is calculated using the period-end exchange rate adjusted for current forward points.
Fair value of hedges against net assets denominated in foreign currencies is calculated at the period-end exchange rate adjusted for current forward points unless the hedge has been traded but not settled at year end (Level 2). If this is the case, the fair value is calculated at the rate at which the hedge is being settled (Level 1).

(2)The fair value of forward interest rate swaps is based upon a valuation model that uses relevant observable market inputs at the quoted intervals, such as forward yield curves, and is adjusted for the Company’s credit risk and the interest rate swap terms.

Note 9 Derivative Instruments

In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to global market risks, including the effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. The Company uses derivative instruments to manage its exposure to such risks and may elect to designate certain derivatives as hedging instruments under ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The Company formally documents all relationships between designated hedging instruments and hedged items as well as its risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking hedge transactions. The Company does not hold or issue derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.

In accordance with ASC 815, the Company recognizes derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and measures them at fair value. The following table presents the fair value of its derivative instruments (in millions):

Credit and Market Risk Management
Financial instruments, including derivatives, expose the Company to counterparty credit risk of nonperformance and to market risk related to currency exchange rate and interest rate fluctuations. The Company manages its exposure to counterparty credit risk by establishing minimum credit standards, diversifying its counterparties, and monitoring its concentrations of credit. The Company’s counterparties are commercial banks with expertise in derivative financial instruments. The Company evaluates the impact of market risk on the fair value and cash flows of its derivative and other financial instruments by considering reasonably possible changes in interest rates and currency exchange rates. The Company continually monitors the creditworthiness of the customers to which it grants credit terms in the normal course of business. The terms and conditions of the Company’s credit policies are designed to mitigate concentrations of credit risk.

The Company’s master netting and other similar arrangements with the respective counterparties allow for net settlement under certain conditions, which are designed to reduce credit risk by permitting net settlement with the same counterparty. We present the assets and liabilities of our derivative financial instruments, for which we have net settlement agreements in place, on a net basis on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. If the derivative financial instruments had been presented gross on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, the asset and liability positions would have been increased by $1 million and $4 million as of July 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk Management
The Company conducts business on a multinational basis in a variety of foreign currencies. Exposure to market risk for changes in foreign currency exchange rates arises primarily from Euro-denominated external revenues, cross-border financing activities between subsidiaries, and foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities. The Company manages its objective of preserving the economic value of non-functional currency denominated cash flows by initially hedging transaction exposures with natural offsets and, once these opportunities have been exhausted, through foreign exchange forward and option contracts, as deemed appropriate.

The Company manages the exchange rate risk of anticipated Euro-denominated sales using forward contracts, which typically mature within twelve months of execution. The Company designates these derivative contracts as cash flow hedges. Unrealized gains and losses on these contracts are deferred in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”) on the Consolidated Balance Sheets until the contract is settled and the hedged sale is realized. The realized gain or loss is then recorded as an adjustment to Net sales on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Realized amounts reclassified to Net sales were $7 million of losses and $27 million of gains for the three months ended July 1, 2023 and July 2, 2022, respectively. Realized amounts reclassified to Net sales were $10 million of losses and $43 million of gains for the six months ended July 1, 2023 and July 2, 2022, respectively. As of July 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the notional amounts of the Company’s foreign exchange cash flow hedges were €754 million and €549 million, respectively. The Company has reviewed its cash flow hedges for effectiveness and determined that they are highly effective.

The Company uses forward contracts, which are not designated as hedging instruments, to manage its exposures related to net assets denominated in foreign currencies. These forward contracts typically mature within one month after execution. Monetary gains and losses on these forward contracts are recorded in income and are generally offset by the transaction gains and losses related to their net asset positions. The notional values and the net fair values of these outstanding contracts were as follows (in millions):

Interest Rate Risk Management
The Company’s debt consists of borrowings under a term loan (“Term Loan A”), Revolving Credit Facility, and Receivables Financing Facilities, which bear interest at variable rates plus applicable margins. As a result, the Company is exposed to market risk associated with the variable interest rate payments on these borrowings. See Note 10, Long-Term Debt for further details related to these borrowings.

The Company manages its exposure to changes in interest rates by utilizing long-term forward interest rate swaps to hedge this exposure and to achieve a desired proportion of fixed versus variable-rate debt, based on current and projected market conditions. The Company has interest rate swap agreements with a total notional amount of $800 million to lock into a fixed SOFR interest rate base, which are subject to monthly net cash settlements effective through October 2027.

In the second quarter, the Company entered into new interest rate swap agreements that contain a total notional amount of $400 million to lock into a variable interest rate base designed to offset a portion of the Company’s existing swap agreements. These agreements are subject to monthly cash settlements effective through October 2027. At the same time, the Company entered into additional new interest rate swap agreements that contain a total notional amount of $400 million to lock into a fixed SOFR interest rate base, which are subject to monthly cash settlements effective through June 2030. As a result of these transactions, the Company maintained fixed interest rates on a total notional amount of $800 million through October 2027 and a total notional amount of $400 million through June 2030. There was no cash settlement, or significant impact on the Consolidated Statement of Operations, as a result of these transactions in the second quarter of 2023.

These fair value amounts, developed based on inputs classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy, represent the estimated value at which the Company’s lenders could trade its debt within the financial markets and do not represent the settlement value of these liabilities to the Company. The fair value of debt will continue to vary each period based on a number of factors, including fluctuations in market interest rates as well as changes to the Company’s credit ratings.

15

Term Loan A
The principal on Term Loan A is due in quarterly installments, with the next quarterly installment due in March 2024 and the majority due upon maturity in 2027. The Company may make prepayments, as it did in the first quarter of 2023, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, and would be required to prepay certain outstanding amounts in the event of certain circumstances or transactions. As of July 1, 2023, the Term Loan A interest rate was 6.20%. Interest payments are made monthly and are subject to variable rates plus an applicable margin.

Revolving Credit Facility
The Company has a Revolving Credit Facility that is available for working capital and other general business purposes, including letters of credit. As of July 1, 2023, the Company had letters of credit totaling $9 million, which reduced funds available for borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility from $1,500 million to $1,491 million. As of July 1, 2023, the Revolving Credit Facility had an average interest rate of 6.15%. Upon borrowing, interest payments are made monthly and are subject to variable rates plus an applicable margin. The Revolving Credit Facility matures on May 25, 2027.

Receivables Financing Facilities
The Company has two Receivables Financing Facilities with financial institutions that have a combined total borrowing limit of up to $280 million. As collateral, the Company pledges perfected first-priority security interests in its U.S. domestically originated accounts receivable. The Company has accounted for transactions under its Receivables Financing Facilities as secured borrowings. The Company’s first Receivables Financing Facility allows for borrowings of up to $180 million and matures on March 19, 2024. During the second quarter of 2023, the Company amended the second Receivables Financing Facility, which allows for borrowings up to $100 million, to extend the maturity to May 13, 2024, but otherwise did not substantially change the terms of the facility.

As of July 1, 2023, the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets included $621 million of receivables that were pledged under the two Receivables Financing Facilities. As of July 1, 2023, $144 million had been borrowed and was classified as current. Borrowings under the Receivables Financing Facilities bear interest at a variable rate plus an applicable margin. As of July 1, 2023, the Receivables Financing Facilities had an average interest rate of 6.50%. Interest is paid monthly on these borrowings.

Each of the Company’s borrowings described above include terms and conditions that limit the incurrence of additional borrowings and require that certain financial ratios be maintained at designated levels.

The Company uses interest rate swaps to manage the interest rate risk associated with its debt. See Note 9, Derivative Instruments for further information.

As of July 1, 2023, the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants.

Contingencies
The Company is subject to a variety of investigations, claims, suits, and other legal proceedings that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of business, including but not limited to, intellectual property, employment, tort, and breach of contract matters. The Company currently believes that the outcomes of such proceedings, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse impact on its business, cash flows, financial position, or results of operations. Any legal proceedings are subject to inherent uncertainties, and the Company’s view of these matters and their potential effects may change in the future. The Company records a liability for contingencies when a loss is deemed to be probable and can be reasonably estimated.

During the second quarter of 2022, the Company entered into a License and Settlement Agreement (“Settlement”) to resolve certain patent-related litigation. The payment terms under the Settlement consist of 8 quarterly payments of $45 million that began in the second quarter of 2022. The remaining 3 quarterly amounts will be paid by the first quarter of 2024 and are included within Accrued liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Note 13 Share-Based Compensation

The Company issues share-based compensation awards under the Zebra Technologies 2018 Long-Term Incentive Plan (“2018 Plan”), approved by shareholders in 2018 which superseded and replaced all prior share-based incentive plans. Outstanding awards issued prior to the 2018 Plan are governed by the provisions of those plans until such awards have been exercised, forfeited, canceled, expired, or otherwise terminated in accordance with their terms. Awards available under the 2018 Plan include stock-settled awards, including stock-settled restricted stock units, stock-settled performance stock units, restricted stock awards, performance share awards, stock appreciation rights, incentive stock options, and non-qualified stock options. Awards available under the 2018 Plan also include cash-settled awards, including cash-settled stock appreciation rights, cash-settled restricted stock units, and cash-settled performance stock units. No awards remain available for future grants under previous plans.

The Company uses treasury shares as its source for issuing shares under the share-based compensation programs. As of July 1, 2023, the Company had 2,365,581 shares of Class A Common stock remaining available to be issued under the 2018 Plan.

The compensation expense from the Company’s share-based compensation plans and associated income tax benefit, excluding the effects of excess tax benefits or shortfalls, were included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as follows (in millions):

As of July 1, 2023, total unearned compensation cost related to the Company’s share-based compensation plans was $141 million, which will be recognized over the weighted average remaining service period of approximately 1.6 years.

18

The majority of the Company’s share-based compensation awards are generally issued as part of its employee and non-employee director incentive program during the second quarter of each fiscal year. The Company also issues awards associated with business acquisitions or other off-cycle events. The majority of the Company’s share-based compensation is comprised of stock-settled awards.

Stock-settled awards
Beginning in 2021, the Company began issuing stock-settled restricted stock units (“stock-settled RSUs”) and stock-settled performance share units (“stock-settled PSUs”) for the majority of its share-based compensation awards. Prior to which, the Company primarily awarded restricted stock awards (“RSAs”), performance share awards (“PSAs”), and stock appreciation rights (“SARs”). The Company’s awards are typically time-vested with stock-settled RSUs and RSAs vesting ratably in three annual installments, stock-settled PSUs and PSAs vesting at the end of the three-year period, and SARs vesting ratably in four annual installments.

Vesting for each participant is subject to restrictions, such as continuous employment, except in certain cases as set forth in each stock agreement. Upon vesting, stock-settled RSUs and PSUs convert to shares of Class A Common Stock that are released to participants. RSAs and PSAs are considered participating securities, and as such, are included as part of the Company’s Class A Common Stock outstanding at the time of grant.

Compensation cost for the stock-settled RSUs, stock-settled PSUs, RSAs, and PSAs is expensed over each participant’s required service period. Compensation cost is calculated as the fair market value of the Company’s Class A Common Stock on the grant date multiplied by the number of units or awards granted, net of estimated forfeitures. The expected attainment of the performance goals for the stock-settled PSUs and PSAs is reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with adjustments recorded to compensation expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, as necessary. As a result of this assessment, the current quarter results include a $30 million reduction in compensation costs. Fair value and compensation cost for SARs are determined using a binomial model on the grant date.

The Company also issues RSAs to non-employee directors. The number of shares granted to each non-employee director is determined by dividing the value of the annual grant by the price of a share of the Company’s Class A Common Stock. New directors in any fiscal year earn a prorated amount. During the first six months of 2023, there were 6,640 shares granted to non-employee directors compared to 5,686 shares during the first six months of 2022. The shares vest immediately upon grant.

The intrinsic value of SARs exercised during the six months ended July 1, 2023 and July 2, 2022 was $5 million and $6 million, respectively. The total fair value of SARs that vested during the six months ended July 1, 2023 and July 2, 2022 was $2 million and $3 million, respectively.

Cash-settled awards
The Company also issues cash-settled share-based compensation awards, including cash-settled stock appreciation rights, cash-settled restricted stock units and cash-settled performance stock units that are classified as liability awards. These awards are expensed over the vesting period of the related award, which is typically three years. Compensation cost is calculated as the fair value on grant date multiplied by the number of share-equivalents granted. The expected attainment of the performance goals for the cash-settled performance stock units is reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with adjustments recorded to compensation expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, as necessary. Cash settlement is based on the fair value of share equivalents at the time of vesting, which was $8 million and $4 million for the six months ended July 1, 2023 and July 2, 2022, respectively. Share-equivalents issued under these programs totaled 39,407 and 64,056 during the six months ended July 1, 2023 and July 2, 2022, respectively.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan
Eligible Zebra employees may purchase common stock at 95% of the fair market value at the date of purchase pursuant to the Zebra Technologies Corporation 2020 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“2020 ESPP”). Employees may make purchases by cash or payroll deductions up to certain limits. The aggregate number of shares that may be purchased under the 2020 ESPP is 1,500,000 shares. As of July 1, 2023, 1,365,953 shares remained available for future purchase.


Note 14 Income Taxes

The Company’s effective tax rate for the three and six months ended July 1, 2023 was 15.8% and 17.4%, respectively, compared to 35.9% and (10.3)% for the three and six months ended July 2, 2022, respectively. In the current period, the variance from the 21% federal statutory rate was primarily due to U.S. tax credits and the favorable impacts of foreign earnings subject to U.S. taxation. In the prior period, the variance from the 21% federal statutory rate was primarily attributable to a discrete tax benefit resulting from the Settlement and related costs recorded in the second quarter of 2022, lower tax rates on foreign earnings, and U.S. tax credits. The change in the effective tax rate from the prior three and six month periods was primarily due to the one-time discrete tax benefit from the Settlement in the prior period.

Note 15 Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Basic net earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of diluted common shares outstanding. Diluted common shares outstanding is computed using the Treasury Stock method and, in periods of income, reflects the additional shares that would be outstanding if dilutive share-based compensation awards were converted into common shares during the period.

(1) In periods of a net loss, restricted stock and performance share awards, which are participating securities, are excluded from weighted-average shares outstanding.
(2) In periods of net loss, all unvested share-based awards were anti-dilutive and therefore excluded from diluted shares.

Anti-dilutive share-based compensation awards are excluded from diluted earnings per share calculations. There were 247,453 and 151,872 shares that were anti-dilutive for the three and six months ended July 1, 2023, respectively. There were 630,182 and 335,476 shares that were anti-dilutive for the three and six months ended July 2, 2022, respectively.

Note 16 Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Stockholders’ equity includes certain items classified as AOCI, including:

Unrealized gain (loss) on anticipated sales hedging transactions relates to derivative instruments used to hedge the exposure related to currency exchange rates for forecasted Euro sales. These hedges are designated as cash flow hedges, and the Company defers income statement recognition of gains and losses until the hedged transaction occurs. See Note 9, Derivative Instruments for more details.

Foreign currency translation adjustments relate to the Company’s non-U.S. subsidiary companies that have designated a functional currency other than the U.S. Dollar. The Company translates the subsidiary functional currency financial statements to U.S. Dollars using a combination of historical, period end, and average foreign exchange rates. This combination of rates creates the foreign currency translation adjustment component of AOCI.

Note 17 Accounts Receivable Factoring

The Company transfers certain receivables to banks without recourse as part of its credit and cash management activities. Such transfers are accounted for as sales and the related receivables are removed from the Company’s balance sheet. The Company services the receivables on behalf of the banks, but otherwise maintains no significant continuing involvement with respect to the receivables. Sale proceeds that are representative of the fair value of factored receivables, less a factoring fee, are reflected in Cash flows from operating activities on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, while sale proceeds in excess of the fair value of factored receivables are reflected in Cash flows from financing activities on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

The Company may be required to maintain a portion of sales proceeds as deposits in a restricted cash account that is released to the Company as it satisfies its obligations as servicer of sold receivables, which totaled $0 million and $12 million as of July 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and is classified within Prepaid expenses and other current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

During the six months ended July 1, 2023 and July 2, 2022, the Company received cash proceeds of $751 million and $765 million, respectively, from the sales of accounts receivables under its factoring arrangements. As of July 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were a total of $54 million and $61 million, respectively, of uncollected receivables that had been sold and removed from the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.

As servicer of sold receivables, the Company had $103 million and $130 million of obligations that were not yet remitted to banks as of July 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. These obligations are included within Accrued liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, with changes in such obligations reflected within Cash flows from financing activities on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Note 18 Segment Information & Geographic Data

The Company’s operations consist of two reportable segments: Asset Intelligence & Tracking (“AIT”) and Enterprise Visibility & Mobility (“EVM”). The reportable segments have been identified based on the financial data utilized by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (the chief operating decision maker or “CODM”) to assess segment performance and allocate resources among the Company’s segments. The CODM reviews adjusted operating income to assess segment profitability. To the extent applicable, segment operating income excludes business acquisition purchase accounting adjustments, amortization of intangible assets, acquisition and integration costs, impairment of goodwill and other intangibles, exit and restructuring costs, as well as certain other non-recurring costs (such as the Settlement costs in the prior year). Segment assets are not reviewed by the Company’s CODM and therefore are not disclosed below.

22

In the second quarter, our advanced location technology solutions business, which is primarily comprised of RFID devices and RTLS offerings, moved from our EVM segment into our AIT segment contemporaneous with a change in our organizational structure and management of the business. We have reported our segment results reflecting this change, including historical periods, on a comparable basis. This change does not have an impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Overview

Zebra Technologies Corporation and its subsidiaries (“Zebra” or the “Company”) is a global leader respected for innovative Enterprise Asset Intelligence (“EAI”) solutions in the Automatic Identification and Data Capture (“AIDC”) industry. We design, manufacture, and sell a broad range of products and solutions, including cloud-based software subscriptions, that capture and move data. These products and solutions include mobile computers; barcode scanners and imagers; radio frequency identification devices and printers (“RFID”) and real-time location systems (“RTLS”); specialty printers for barcode labeling and personal identification; fixed industrial scanning and machine vision; related accessories and supplies, such as self-adhesive labels and other consumables; and related software applications. We also provide a full range of services, including maintenance, technical support, repair, managed and professional services, as well as various workflow optimization solutions, including cloud-based software subscriptions and robotic automation solutions. End-users of our products, solutions and services include those in the retail and e-commerce, manufacturing, transportation and logistics, healthcare, public sector, and other industries within the following regions: North America; Europe, Middle East, and Africa (“EMEA”); Asia-Pacific; and Latin America.

Our customers have traditionally benefited from proven solutions that increase productivity and improve asset efficiency and utilization. The Company is poised to drive, and capitalize on, the evolution of the data capture industry into the broader EAI industry, supported by technology trends including the Internet of Things (“IoT”), ubiquitous mobility, automation, cloud computing, and the increasingly on-demand global economy. EAI solutions offer additional benefits to our customers including real-time, data-driven insights that improve operational visibility and drive workflow optimization.

The Company’s operations consist of two reportable segments that provide complementary offerings to our customers: Asset Intelligence & Tracking (“AIT”) and Enterprise Visibility & Mobility (“EVM”).

The AIT segment is an industry leader in barcode printing and asset tracking technologies. Its major product lines include barcode and card printers, RFID and RTLS offerings, and supplies, including temperature-monitoring labels and services.

The EVM segment is an industry leader in automatic information and data capture solutions. Its major product lines include mobile computing, data capture, fixed industrial scanning and machine vision, services, and workflow optimization solutions. Our workflow optimization solutions include cloud-based software subscriptions, retail solutions, and robotic automation solutions.

In the second quarter, our advanced location technology solutions business, which is primarily comprised of RFID devices and RTLS offerings, moved from our EVM segment into our AIT segment contemporaneous with a change in our organizational structure and management of the business. We have reported our segment results reflecting this change, including historical periods, on a comparable basis. This change does not have an impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

We are a market leader in our core businesses, which are generally considered to be comprised of our mobile computing and data capture products, printing products and supplies, as well as support and repair services. We continue to focus on growth opportunities within adjacent and expansion markets by scaling and integrating our recent business acquisitions, inclusive of our $881 million acquisition of Matrox Electronic Systems Ltd. (“Matrox”) in the second quarter of 2022.

Second Quarter 2023 Financial Highlights and Other Recent Developments

Net sales were $1,214 million in the current year compared to $1,468 million in the prior year.
Operating income was $194 million in the current year compared to an operating loss of $145 million in the prior year, inclusive of the $372 million prior year Settlement charge.
Net income was $144 million, or $2.78 per diluted share in the current year, compared to a net loss of $98 million, or $(1.87) per diluted share in the prior year, inclusive of the prior year Settlement charge.
Net cash used in operating activities was $110 million in the current year compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $154 million in the prior year.

Table of Contents
Late in the second quarter, we began to experience a more broad-based moderation of demand across many of our core product offerings. Demand declines were most pronounced in our mobile computing business within our EVM segment which was primarily due to fewer large order deployments as we believe large enterprises are absorbing significant capacity built-out over recent years, while they are also experiencing tighter capital spending budgets. This, coupled with a general trend of distributors reducing inventory levels, has negatively impacted our current year results. We expect these trends to continue through at least the remainder of 2023. We are partially mitigating the financial impacts of operating headwinds through a combination of targeted list price increases and operating cost management. As our overall supply chain continues to recover, with improvements in both component part availability and costs of transportation, our ability to meet customer demand has improved as compared to the prior year.

As a result of the impacts on our business discussed above, the Company expanded the scope of its 2022 Productivity Plan. The Company estimates the total cost of the 2022 Productivity Plan to now be at least $60 million which will be reflected within Exit and restructuring charges, with $36 million incurred to date, including $14 million and $24 million recorded for the three and six months ended July 1, 2023, respectively. The Company’s obligations under the 2022 Productivity Plan are expected to be substantially settled by the first quarter of 2024 and are primarily reflected within Accrued liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

In addition, the Company initiated a voluntary retirement plan (“VRP”) applicable to retirement-eligible U.S. employees to generate incremental cost efficiencies. Employees who participate in the VRP agree to retire in 2023 in exchange for cash severance and other benefits that will be classified within Exit and restructuring on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company estimates the total cost of the VRP will be approximately $45 million and will be recorded in the third quarter aligned with the Company’s commitment to the VRP obligations. Payment obligations are expected to be substantially settled by the first quarter of 2024 and will be reflected within Accrued liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The total costs of the 2022 Productivity Plan and VRP are expected to be $105 million. These actions are expected to impact greater than 7% of our global employee base and are estimated to result in annualized net cost savings, primarily within Operating expenses, of approximately $85 million.

Second quarter 2023 compared to Second quarter 2022

Total Net sales decreased $254 million or 17.3% compared to the prior year reflecting declines in both of our segments resulting from a broad-based moderation of demand and fewer EVM large mobile computer deployments. Current year Net sales of both segments included the benefit of targeted list price increases, partially offset by the negative effects of foreign currency changes. Prior year Net sales of both segments were negatively impacted by supply chain bottlenecks, which were particularly pronounced in our EVM segment. Excluding the effects of currency changes and acquisitions, the decrease in Consolidated Organic Net sales was 16.0%.
26

Table of Contents

Gross margin increased to 47.9% for the current year compared to 45.9% for the prior year. As compared to the prior year, Gross margin was significantly higher in our AIT segment and slightly higher in our EVM segment. Both segments, particularly AIT, benefited from lower premium freight and component part costs compared to the prior year.

Operating expenses for the quarters ended July 1, 2023 and July 2, 2022 were $387 million and $819 million, or 31.9% and 55.8% of Net sales, respectively. Excluding the Settlement charge in the prior year, Operating expenses would have been 30.4% of Net sales. Current year Operating expenses were lower than the prior year, excluding the Settlement charge, primarily due to lower employee incentive compensation, Acquisition and integration costs, and Amortization of intangible assets, partially offset by higher Exit and restructuring costs. The increase as a percentage of Net sales over the prior year results from cost deleveraging.

Operating income increased to $194 million for the current year compared to an operating loss of $145 million in the prior year. The increase was primarily due to lower Operating expenses, as the prior period included the $372 million Settlement charge, partially offset by lower Gross profit.

Net income increased compared to the prior year due to higher Operating income, partially offset by higher income tax expense and Other (expense) income, net.

The Company’s effective tax rates for the three months ended July 1, 2023 and July 2, 2022 were 15.8% and 35.9%, respectively. The change in the effective tax rate was primarily due to the discrete tax benefit recorded in the prior year related to the Settlement.

Other (expense) income, net was an expense of $23 million for the current year, compared to $8 million in the prior year. The increase was primarily due to higher interest expense associated with higher interest rates and average outstanding debt levels, which was partially offset by higher interest rate swap gains in the current year.

Diluted earnings per share increased to $2.78 as compared to $(1.87) in the prior year due to higher Net income and lower average shares outstanding.

Year to date 2023 compared to Year to date 2022

Total Net sales decreased $281 million or 9.7% compared to the prior year as growth in our AIT segment was more than offset by a decline in our EVM segment primarily due to fewer large mobile computer deployments. Current year Net sales of both segments included the benefit of targeted list price increases, substantially offset by the negative effects of foreign currency changes. Prior year Net sales of both segments were negatively impacted by supply chain bottlenecks. Excluding the effects of currency changes and acquisitions, the decrease in Consolidated Organic Net sales was 8.2%.

Gross margin increased to 47.7% for the current year compared to 45.2% for the prior year. As compared to the prior year, Gross margin was significantly higher in our AIT segment, while Gross margin of our EVM segment was slightly lower. Both segments, particularly AIT, benefited from lower premium freight and component part costs compared to the prior year.

Operating expenses for the periods ended July 1, 2023 and July 2, 2022 were $829 million and $1,244 million, or 31.7% and 42.9% of Net sales, respectively. Excluding the Settlement charge in the prior year, Operating expenses would have been 30.1% of Net sales. Current year Operating expenses were lower than the prior year, excluding the Settlement charge, primarily due to lower employee incentive compensation, Acquisition and integration costs, and Amortization of intangible assets, partially offset by higher Exit and restructuring costs and the inclusion of operating expenses associated with recently acquired businesses. The increase as a percentage of Net sales over the prior year results from cost deleveraging.

Operating income increased to $419 million for the current year compared to $67 million for the prior year. The increase was primarily due to lower Operating expenses, as the prior period included the $372 million Settlement charge, partially offset by lower Gross profit.

Net income increased compared to the prior year due to higher Operating income, partially offset by higher Other (expense) income, net and income tax expense.

Other (expense) income, net was an expense of $63 million for the current year, compared to income of $30 million in the prior year. The increase was primarily due to higher interest expense associated with higher interest rates and average outstanding debt levels as well as lower interest rate swap gains in the current year.

The Company’s effective tax rates for the six months ended July 1, 2023 and July 2, 2022 were 17.4% and (10.3)%, respectively. The change in the effective tax rate compared to the prior year was primarily due to the discrete tax benefit recorded in the prior year related to the Settlement.

Diluted earnings per share increased to $5.68 as compared to $2.02 in the prior year due to higher Net income and lower average shares outstanding.

Second quarter 2023 compared to Second quarter 2022

Total Net sales for EVM decreased $246 million or 24.6% compared to the prior year primarily due to lower sales of mobile computing products largely attributed to fewer large order deployments and an overall moderation of demand for our core products as distributors reset inventory levels, which were partially offset by higher sales of services and software, data capture products, and contributions from our recent acquisitions. Current year Net sales included the benefit of targeted list price increases, partially offset by the negative effects of foreign currency changes. Excluding the impacts of foreign currency changes and acquisitions, EVM Organic Net sales decline was 23.6%.

Gross margin increased to 47.2% in the current year compared to 47.0% for the prior year. The benefits of favorable business mix and pricing, and lower premium freight and component part costs were substantially offset by volume deleveraging, the negative impact of foreign currency changes, and inventory-related charges.

Operating income for the current year decreased by 33.7% compared to the prior year primarily due to lower Gross profit, partially offset by lower Operating expenses.

Year to date 2023 compared to Year to date 2022

Total Net sales for EVM decreased $384 million or 19.0% compared to the prior year primarily due to lower sales of mobile computing products largely attributed to fewer large order deployments and an overall moderation of demand for our core products as distributors reset inventory levels, which were partially offset by higher sales of data capture products, contributions from our recent acquisitions, and higher sales of services and software. Current year Net sales included the benefit of targeted list price increases, substantially offset by the negative effects of foreign currency changes. Excluding the impacts of foreign currency changes and acquisitions, EVM Organic Net sales decline was 18.1%.

Gross margin decreased to 46.7% in the current year compared to 46.8% for the prior year. The negative impact of foreign currency changes, volume deleveraging, and inventory-related charges were substantially offset by favorable business mix and pricing, and lower premium freight and component part costs.

Operating income for the current year decreased by 32.4% compared to the prior year primarily due to lower Gross profit, partially offset by lower Operating expenses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The primary factors that influence our liquidity include the amount and timing of cash collections from our customers, cash payments to our suppliers, capital expenditures, acquisitions, and share repurchases. Management believes that our existing capital resources, inclusive of available borrowing capacity on debt and other financing facilities and funds generated from operations, are sufficient to meet anticipated capital requirements and service our indebtedness. The following table summarizes our cash flow activities for the periods indicated (in millions):

The change in our cash and cash equivalents balance during the six months ended July 1, 2023 compared to the prior year is reflective of the following:

$264 million of operating activities primarily due to higher cash payments for inventory purchases, income taxes, the Settlement, and interest, partially offset by favorability in the timing of customer collections and lower employee incentive compensation payments.

$877 million of investing activities primarily due to cash payments for the acquisition of Matrox in the prior year.

$421 million of financing activities primarily due to increased borrowings in the prior year as a result of the Company refinancing its long-term credit facilities, partially offset by lower common stock repurchases in the current year.

As of July 1, 2023, the Term Loan A interest rate was 6.20%. Interest payments are made monthly and are subject to variable rates plus an applicable margin.

Revolving Credit Facility
The Company has a Revolving Credit Facility that is available for working capital and other general business purposes, including letters of credit. As of July 1, 2023, the Company had letters of credit totaling $9 million, which reduced funds available for borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility from $1,500 million to $1,491 million. As of July 1, 2023, the Revolving Credit Facility had an average interest rate of 6.15%. Upon borrowing, interest payments are made monthly and are subject to variable rates plus an applicable margin. The Revolving Credit Facility matures on May 25, 2027.

Receivables Financing Facilities
The Company has two Receivables Financing Facilities with financial institutions that have a combined total borrowing limit of up to $280 million. As collateral, the Company pledges perfected first-priority security interests in its U.S. domestically originated accounts receivable. The Company has accounted for transactions under its Receivables Financing Facilities as secured borrowings. The Company’s first Receivables Financing Facility allows for borrowings of up to $180 million and matures on March 19, 2024. The Company’s second Receivable Financing Facility allows for borrowings of up to $100 million and matures on May 13, 2024. During the second quarter of 2023, the Company amended the second Receivables Financing Facility to extend the maturity, but otherwise did not substantially change the terms of the facility.

As of July 1, 2023, the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets included $621 million of receivables that were pledged under the two Receivables Financing Facilities. As of July 1, 2023, $144 million had been borrowed and was classified as current. Borrowings under the Receivables Financing Facilities bear interest at a variable rate plus an applicable margin. As of July 1, 2023, the Receivables Financing Facilities had an average interest rate of 6.50%. Interest is paid monthly on these borrowings.

Receivables Factoring
The Company transfers certain receivables to banks without recourse as part of its credit and cash management activities. Such transfers are accounted for as sales and the related receivables are removed from the Company’s balance sheet. The Company services the receivables on behalf of the banks, but otherwise maintains no significant continuing involvement with respect to the receivables. Sale proceeds that are representative of the fair value of factored receivables, less a factoring fee, are reflected in Cash flows from operating activities on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, while sale proceeds in excess of the fair value of factored receivables are reflected in Cash flows from financing activities on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

As of July 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were a total of $54 million and $61 million, respectively, of uncollected receivables that had been sold and removed from the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.

As servicer of sold receivables, the Company had $103 million and $130 million of obligations that were not yet remitted to banks as of July 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. These obligations are included within Accrued liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, with changes in such obligations reflected within Cash flows from financing activities on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

In May 2022, the Company refinanced its long-term credit facilities by entering into its third amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, which increased the Company’s borrowing under Term Loan A from $875 million to $1.75 billion and the Company’s borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility from $1 billion to $1.5 billion, extended the maturities of the facilities to May 25, 2027, and replaced LIBOR with SOFR as the benchmark reference rate.

See Note 17, Accounts Receivable Factoring in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further details.

Share Repurchases
On May 17, 2022, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program for up to $1 billion of its outstanding shares of common stock. This authorization augments the previous $1 billion share repurchase authorization which was announced on July 30, 2019. The newly authorized share repurchase program does not have a stated expiration date. The level of the Company’s repurchases depends on a number of factors, including its financial condition, capital requirements, cash flows, results of operations, future business prospects and other factors its management may deem relevant. The timing, volume, and nature of repurchases are subject to market conditions, applicable securities laws and other factors and may be amended, suspended or discontinued at any time. Repurchases may be affected from time to time through open market purchases, including pursuant to a pre-set trading plan meeting the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. During the first six months of 2023, the Company repurchased 194,319 shares of common stock for approximately $52 million. As of July 1, 2023, the Company has cumulatively repurchased 3,517,602 shares of common stock for approximately $1.1 billion, resulting in a remaining amount of share repurchases authorized under the plans of $893 million.

Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
There were no material changes in the Company’s market risk during the quarter ended July 1, 2023. For additional information on market risk, refer to Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Item 4.Controls and Procedures

Management’s Report on Disclosure Controls

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate disclosure controls as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management assessed the effectiveness of our disclosure controls as of July 1, 2023. Based on this assessment and those criteria, our management believes that, as of July 1, 2023, our disclosure controls were effective.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During the quarter ended July 1, 2023, there have been no changes in our internal controls that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Inherent Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within Zebra have been prevented or detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION 
Item 1.Legal Proceedings

See Note 12, Accrued Liabilities, Commitments and Contingencies in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report.

Item 1A.Risk Factors
In addition to the other information included in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, and the factors identified under “Safe Harbor” in Part I, Item 2 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which could materially affect our business, financial condition, cash flows, or results of operations. The risks described in the Annual Report are not the only risks facing the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to the Company or that the Company currently considers immaterial also may materially adversely affect its business, financial condition, and/or operating results. There have been no material changes to the risk factors included in our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2022, other than as described below:

Cybersecurity incidents could disrupt business operations. We rely on information technology systems throughout the Company to keep financial records, process orders, manage inventory, coordinate shipments to distributors and customers, maintain confidential and proprietary information, and other technical activities, and operate other critical functions such as internet connectivity, network communications, and email. The Company stores confidential and proprietary information through cloud-based services that are hosted by third parties where we have less influence over security protocols. In addition, our customers may use certain of our products and solutions to transmit and/or process personal data and other sensitive information. Like many companies, we continually strive to meet industry information security standards relevant to our business. We periodically perform vulnerability assessments, remediate vulnerabilities, review log/access, perform system maintenance, manage network perimeter protection, implement and manage disaster recovery testing, and provide periodic educational sessions to our employees to foster awareness of schemes to access sensitive information. Despite our implementation of a variety of security controls and measures, as well as those of our third-party vendors, there is no assurance that such actions will be sufficient to prevent a cybersecurity incident. Further, as cybercrime and threats continue to rapidly evolve and become increasingly more difficult to detect and defend against, our current security controls and measures may not be effective in preventing cybersecurity incidents and we may not have the capabilities to detect certain vulnerabilities. A cybersecurity incident could include an attempt to gain unauthorized access to digital systems for purposes of misappropriating assets or sensitive information, corrupting data, or causing operational disruption. Phishing and other types of attempts to obtain unauthorized information or access are often sophisticated and difficult to detect or defeat.

Cybersecurity incidents can take a variety of forms including, unintentional events as well as deliberate attacks by individuals, groups and sophisticated organizations, such as state sponsored organizations or nation-state actors. Further, certain of our third party vendors have limited access to our employee and customer data and may use this data in unauthorized ways. Any such cybersecurity incident or misuse of our employees’ or customers’ data may lead to a material disruption of our core business systems, the loss or corruption of confidential business information, and/or the disclosure of personal data that in each case could result in an adverse business impact as well as possible damage to our brand. This could also lead to a public disclosure or theft of private intellectual property and a possible loss of customer confidence.

While we have experienced and expect to continue to experience these types of threats and incidents, there have been no material incidents incurred to-date at the Company. If our core business operations, or that of one of our third-party service providers, were to be breached, this could affect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of our systems and data. Any failure on the part of us or our third-party service providers to maintain the security of data we are required to protect, including via the penetration of our network security and the misappropriation of confidential and proprietary information, could result in: business disruption; damage to our reputation; financial obligations to third parties; fines, penalties, regulatory proceedings; private litigation with potentially large costs; deterioration in our suppliers’, distributors’, and customers’ confidence in us; as well as other competitive disadvantages. Such failures to maintain the security of data could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. While we continue to perform security due diligence, there is always the possibility of a significant breach. In addition, any failure on the part of one of our contract manufacturers, distributors or resellers to maintain the security of its systems or data, including via the penetration of their network security or ransomware, could result in business disruption to us and damage to our reputation.

We rely on third-party dealers, distributors, and resellers to sell many of our products, services and solutions, and their failure to effectively bring our products, services and solutions to market may negatively affect our results of operation and financial results. In addition to our own sales force, we offer our products, services and solutions through a variety of third-party dealers, distributors, and resellers who may also market other products, services and solutions that compete with ours. Failure of one or more of our third-party dealers, distributors, or resellers to effectively promote our offerings could affect our ability to bring
35

Table of Contents
products, services and solutions to market and have a negative impact on our results of operations. Any changes to our channel program may cause some of our third-party dealers, distributors, or resellers to exit the program due to modifications to the program structure, which may reduce our ability to bring products and solutions to market and could have a negative impact on our results of operations.

Third-party dealers, distributors or resellers could also face additional costs or credit concerns resulting from an uncertain economic environment that would cause such parties to reduce purchases of our products, thereby causing a negative impact on our financial results. Some of these third-parties are smaller and more likely to be impacted by a significant decrease in available credit that could result from a weakness in the financial markets. If credit pressures or other financial difficulties result in insolvency for third-party dealers, distributors, or resellers and we are unable to successfully transition end-customers to purchase our products and solutions from other third-parties or from us directly, it may cause, and in some cases, has caused, a negative impact on our financial results.

Our future operating results depend on our ability to purchase a sufficient amount of materials, parts, and components, as well as services and software to meet the demands of customers. We source some of our components from sole source suppliers. Any disruption to our suppliers or significant increase in the price of supplies, inclusive of transportation costs, or change in customer demand could have a negative impact on our results of operations. Our ability to meet customers’ demands depends, in part, on our ability to obtain in a timely manner an adequate delivery of quality materials, parts, and components, as well as services and software from our suppliers, and our ability to deliver products, services and software to our customers. In addition, certain supplies are available only from a single source or limited sources and we may not be able to diversify sources in a timely manner. If demand for our products, solutions or services increases from our current expectations or if suppliers are unable or unwilling to meet our demand for other reasons, including as a result of natural disasters, public health issues, severe weather conditions, or financial issues, we could experience an interruption in supplies or a significant increase in the price of supplies that could have a negative impact on our business. We have experienced shortages in the past that have negatively impacted our results of operations and may experience such shortages in the future. At times we have and may continue to execute multi-year purchase commitments with suppliers that contain minimum spend thresholds, which we are obligated to fulfill even if customer demand declines, and may require that we purchase inventory that exceeds our forecasted demand. In addition, volatility in customer demand, product availability, and costs to transport products, may result in increased operating input costs, elevated inventory levels, as well as inventory-related losses. Also, credit constraints at our suppliers could cause us to accelerate payment of accounts payable by us, impacting our cash flow.

Economic conditions and financial market disruptions may adversely affect our business and results of operations. Adverse economic conditions or reduced and/or changes in the timing and amount of information technology spending may negatively impact our business. General disruption of financial markets and a related general economic downturn or uncertainty could adversely affect our business and financial condition through a reduction in demand for our products, solutions or services by our customers. If a slowdown were severe enough, it could require further impairment testing and write-downs of goodwill and other intangible assets. Cost reduction actions have been and may be necessary in the future resulting in restructuring charges as well as changes in staffing levels which may strain our resources. A tightening of financial credit or increase in the cost of borrowing could adversely affect our customers, suppliers, outsourced manufacturers, and channel partners (e.g., distributors and resellers) from obtaining adequate credit for the financing of significant purchases. An economic downturn could also result in a decrease in or cancellation of orders for our products, solutions and services; negatively impacting the ability to collect accounts receivable on a timely basis; result in additional reserves for uncollectible accounts receivable; and require additional reserves for inventory obsolescence. Higher volatility and fluctuations in foreign exchange rates for the U.S. Dollar against currencies such as the Euro, British Pound Sterling and Czech Koruna could negatively impact product sales, margins, and cash flows.

EXHIBIT 10.1 PERFORMANCE SHARE AGREEMENT This PERFORMANCE SHARE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of /$GrantDate$/ (the “Grant Date”), is between ZEBRA TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and /$ParticipantName$/ (the “Participant”). This Agreement evidences an Award being granted to the Participant under the Zebra Technologies Corporation 2018 Long-Term Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Plan”) in the form of Performance Shares (as defined in Section 2.29 of the Plan). Capitalized terms used in this Agreement without definitions shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Plan. 1. Grant of Performance Shares. (a) Grant. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement and pursuant to the provisions of the Plan, the Company hereby grants to the Participant as of the Grant Date /$GrantTxt$/ Performance Shares (the “Target Number of Performance Shares”). Zero percent (0%) to two hundred percent (200%) of the Target Number of Performance Shares may be earned based on the Company’s results in accordance with Exhibit A. This Agreement shall be null and void unless the Participant accepts this Agreement through the Company’s electronic delivery and acceptance process operated by Merrill not later than /$AcceptByDate$/. (b) Non-transferability. Except as otherwise permitted under the Plan or this Agreement, the Performance Shares granted hereunder shall be non-transferable by the Participant during the Vesting Period set forth under Section 2 of this Agreement. 2. Vesting. (a) Vesting Period. Subject to Section 2(b) below, the percentage of Target Number of Performance Shares that have been earned in accordance with Exhibit A shall become vested and non-forfeitable on the third anniversary of the Grant Date (the “Vesting Period”), provided that the Participant is then employed by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries. (b) Additional Rules for Early Employment Termination. Notwithstanding Section 2(a), the Performance Shares shall be subject to the following additional rules in the following circumstances: (i) Death or Disability. If the Participant terminates employment with the Company and/or any Subsidiary due to death or Disability prior to the last day of the Vesting Period, the number of Performance Shares that becomes payable under Section 3 is determined as follows: A. If the Participant terminates employment with the Company due to death or a Disability that also qualifies as a “disability” within the meaning of Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-3(i)(4) (a “Section 409A Disability”), and such employment termination occurs on or prior to December 31, 2025, then the number of earned and vested Performance Shares equals the greater of (x) the product of (1) the Target Number of Performance Shares multiplied by (2) the earned percentage as


 
2 reported by the Company (determined in accordance with Exhibit A) on its financial statements when determining compensation expense under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles with respect to the Company’s performance over the Three-Year Performance Period (as defined in Exhibit A) as of the most recent quarter end prior to the effective date of the Participant’s termination of employment, or (y) the sum of the number of Performance Shares banked pursuant to Exhibit A as of the effective date of the Participant’s termination of employment. However, if the Participant terminates employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries due to death or a Section 409A Disability, and such employment termination occurs after December 31,2025 and on or prior to the third anniversary of the Grant Date, then the number of earned and vested Performance Shares shall be as determined in accordance with Exhibit A, but in no event will be less than the sum of the number of Performance Shares banked as of December 31, 2025 with respect to any then completed Annual Performance Years pursuant to Exhibit A. B. If the Participant terminates employment with the Company or one of its Subsidiaries due to a Disability that is not a Section 409A Disability, then the number of earned and vested Performance Shares shall be as determined after the end of the Vesting Period in accordance with Exhibit A, but in no event will be less than the sum of the number of Performance Shares banked with respect to any then completed Annual Performance Years pursuant to Exhibit A. For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” has the meaning set forth in the employment agreement, if any, between the Company and/or any Subsidiary and the Participant or, if the Participant is not a party to such an agreement, “Disability” has the meaning ascribed to such term in the Plan. (ii) Retirement. In the event of the Participant’s Retirement prior to last day of the Vesting Period, a pro rata share of the Performance Shares shall become immediately vested. The pro rata share equals the product of (x) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days from but excluding the Grant Date and to and including the effective date of the Participant’s Retirement, and the denominator of which is 1,096 (but in no event can the fraction exceed 1.0), multiplied by the greater of (y) the Target Number of Performance Shares that is earned based on the Company’s results during the Three-Year Performance Period as determined under Exhibit A and (z) the number of Performance Shares banked based on the Company’s results during each completed Annual Performance Year pursuant to Exhibit A. For purposes of this Agreement, “Retire” and “Retirement” means the Participant’s termination of employment with the Company and/or any Subsidiary that meets or exceeds the Rule of 65; provided, however that continued vesting under this Section 2(b)(ii) shall not apply if grounds to terminate the Participant’s employment for Cause existed at the time of termination (as determined by the Company in its sole discretion) either at the time of or following the Participant’s termination of employment. The “Rule of 65” means the sum of the Participant’s age and years of continuous service with the Company (including its predecessors) equals or exceeds sixty-five (65), provided that the Participant must meet both a minimum age of fifty-five (55) and a minimum of five (5) years of continuous


 
3 service. Only full years of age and completed months of service shall be counted towards meeting the Rule of 65. (iii) Termination by the Company or any Subsidiary other than for Cause. In the event the Participant’s employment with the Company and/or any Subsidiary is terminated by the Company and/or any Subsidiary other than for Cause prior to meeting the Rule of 65 set forth in Section 2(b)(ii) above and prior to the last day of the Vesting Period the number of Performance Shares that becomes payable under Section 3 shall be as determined under Section 2(b)(ii) above, subject to, at the Company’s discretion, the Participant’s delivery and the effectiveness of a general release of all claims that Participant may have against the Company and/or any Subsidiary or persons affiliated with the Company and/or any Subsidiary in the form prescribed at the Company. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” has the meaning set forth in the employment agreement, if any, between the Company and/or any Subsidiary and the Participant or, if the Participant is not a party to such an agreement, “Cause” has the meaning, as determined by the Company in its sole discretion, set forth in the Plan. (iv) Termination for Cause; Other Termination of Employment. In the event the Participant’s employment with the Company and/or any Subsidiary is terminated for any reason other than as provided in Section 2(b)(i), (ii) or (iii), including for Cause, any unvested Performance Shares as of the effective date of the Participant’s termination of employment shall immediately be forfeited without the requirement of any action by the Company. (v) Participants Outside the United States. For purposes of this Agreement, if the Participant is employed or providing services outside the United States, the date the Participant’s employment with the Company and/or any Subsidiary is terminated shall mean the date the Participant is no longer actively providing services to Company or the Subsidiary employing the Participant (regardless of the reason for such termination and whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction in which the Participant is employed or providing services or the terms of the Participant’s employment agreement, if any) and, unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or by the Company, the Participant’s right to vest in the Performance Shares under the Plan, if any, will terminate as of such date and will not be extended by any notice period (e.g., the Participant’s period of service would not include any contractual notice period or any period of “garden leave” or similar period mandated under employment laws in the jurisdiction in which the Participant is employed or providing service or the terms of the Participant’s employment agreement, if any). The Company shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when the Participant is no longer actively providing services for purposes of this Section 2(b)(v) (including whether the Participant may still be considered to be providing services while on a leave of absence). (vi) Breach of Restrictive Covenants. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2(b), if the Participant at any time breaches any of the Restrictive Covenants (as defined in Section 6), including after employment termination, then the Performance Shares, whether previously vested or not, shall immediately be forfeited.


 
4 3. Settlement; Issuance of Shares. (a) No Share shall be issued to the Participant with respect to a Performance Share under this Agreement until it has become earned and vested under Section 2 above. For purposes of this Agreement, “Share” means a share of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, US $0.01 par value per share. (i) If Performance Shares become earned and vested under Section 2(a), the Company shall issue a Share with respect to each such Performance Share within ninety (90) days after the end of the Vesting Period. (ii) If a Participant terminates employment before the end of the Vesting Period and becomes entitled to accelerated vesting of Performance Shares under Section 2(b)(i)(A) due to death or a Disability that also qualifies as a Section 409A Disability, then the Company shall issue a Share with respect to each such Performance Share within ninety (90) days after such termination of employment. If Performance Shares vest under Section 2(a)(i)(B) due to a Disability that is not a Section 409A Disability, then the Company shall issue Shares with respect to each such Performance Share as provided Section 2(a)(i) above. (iii) If a Participant terminates employment under the circumstances described under either Section 2(b)(ii) or Section 2(b)(iii) other than during the twelve (12)-month period beginning on a Section 409A CIC as described in Section 3(a)(iv) below, then the Company shall issue a Share with respect to each such Performance Share on or within ninety (90) days after the end of the Vesting Period. (iv) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3(a), in the event that there is a Change in Control described in Section 9.8(a) of the Plan that is also a “change in the ownership or effective control of a corporation, or a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of a corporation” within the meaning of Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-3(i)(5) (a “Section 409A CIC”), and the Participant terminates employment with vested Performance Shares on or during the twelve (12) months after a Section 409A CIC, then the Company shall issue a Share with respect to each vested Performance Share then held by such Participant on or within ninety (90) days after such termination of employment. Issuance of Shares under vested Performance Shares shall in all events be subject to accelerated payment under Section 5(b) below and the requirements under Section 8 below. All earned and vested Performance Shares shall be settled solely with Shares, and not cash, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan; provided however, that fractional Shares shall be delivered solely in cash.


 
5 (b) When Shares are delivered, the Company shall make a cash payment equal to the aggregate amount of cash dividends and other cash distributions that the Company would have paid to the Participant during the Vesting Period in respect of the Shares that are being delivered under this Section 3 had such Shares been issued to the Participant on the Grant Date, without interest. To the extent that the Performance Shares are forfeited prior to vesting, the right to receive such cash payments under this Section 3 shall also be forfeited. (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant is resident or employed outside of the United Sates, the Company, in its sole discretion, may settle the Performance Shares in the form of a cash payment to the extent settlement in Shares: (i) is prohibited under applicable law; (ii) would require the Participant, the Company or any Subsidiary to obtain the approval of any governmental and/or regulatory body in the Participant’s country; (iii) would result in adverse tax consequences for the Participant, the Company or a Subsidiary; or (iv) is administratively burdensome. Alternatively, the Company, in its sole discretion, may settle the Performance Shares in the form of Shares but require the Participant to sell such Shares immediately or within a specified period following the Participant’s termination of employment (in which case, this Agreement shall give the Company authority to issue sales instructions on the Participant’s behalf). 4. Payment of Taxes. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement: (a) The provisions of Section 9.10 of the Plan are incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof. The Participant acknowledges that he or she may be required to pay to the Company or, if different, the Subsidiary that employs the Participant (the “Employer”), and that the Company, the Employer, or any Subsidiary shall have the right and are hereby authorized to withhold from any compensation or other amount owing to the Participant, applicable income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or other tax-related items (including taxes that are imposed on the Company or the Employer as a result of the Participant’s participation in the Plan but are deemed by the Company or the Employer to be an appropriate charge to the Participant) (collectively, “Tax-Related Items”), with respect to any issuance, transfer, or other taxable event under this Agreement or under the Plan and to take such action as may be necessary in the opinion of the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all obligations for the payment of such Tax-Related Items. The Participant further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (i) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Performance Shares, including, but not limited to the grant, vesting and/or settlement of the Performance Shares and the subsequent sale of Shares acquired upon settlement of the vested Performance Shares; and (ii) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Performance Shares to reduce or eliminate the Participant’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve a particular tax result. Further, if the Participant is subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction, the Participant acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction. (b) The Company and/or the Employer shall withhold, or cause to be withheld, Shares otherwise vesting or issuable under the Performance Shares in satisfaction of any applicable withholding tax obligations, unless the Chief Human Resources Officer permits the Participant to elect to satisfy such obligations by (i) cash, wire transfer of immediately available funds or check;


 
6 or (ii) if approved by the Committee, by delivery of a written or electronic notice that the Participant has placed a market sell order with a broker acceptable to the Company and/or the Employer with respect to Shares then issuable upon vesting of the Performance Shares, and that the broker has been directed to pay a sufficient portion of the net proceeds of the sale to the Company and/or the Employer in satisfaction of the aggregate applicable withholding tax obligations; provided that payment of such proceeds is then made to the Company and/or the Employer upon settlement of such sale in satisfaction of the applicable withholding tax obligations, the number of Shares that may be so withheld or surrendered shall be limited to the number of Shares that have a Fair Market Value on the date of withholding no greater than the aggregate amount of such obligations based on the minimum individual statutory withholding rates in the Participant’s applicable jurisdictions for U.S. federal, state, local and foreign income tax and payroll tax purposes that are applicable to such taxable income. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Participant authorizes the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy the applicable withholding tax obligations from proceeds of the sale of Shares issuable under the Performance Shares through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company and/or the Employer (on the Participant’s behalf pursuant to this authorization). If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in Shares, the Participant is deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject to the vested Performance Shares, notwithstanding that a number of the Shares are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items. The Participant acknowledges that, regardless of any action taken by the Company, the Employer, or any Subsidiary the ultimate liability for all Tax- Related Items, is and remains the Participant’s responsibility and may exceed the amount, if any, actually withheld by the Company or the Employer. (c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company and/or the Employer shall not be obligated to deliver any certificate representing Shares issuable with respect to the Performance Shares to, or to cause any such Shares to be held in book-entry form by, the Participant or the Participant’s legal representative unless and until the Participant or the Participant’s legal representative shall have paid the Tax-Related Items resulting from the grant, vesting or settlement of the Performance Shares or any other taxable event related to the Performance Shares. 5. Change in Control. The following provisions shall apply in the event of a Change in Control notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in Section 2 or Section 3 of this Agreement, and in all events subject to the restrictions in Section 8 below. (a) If the Company or its successor terminates the Participant’s employment other than for Cause or the Participant resigns for Good Reason on or within twelve (12) months after certain Change in Control transactions under the circumstances set forth in Section 9.8(a) of the Plan, as in effect on the date hereof, then a pro rata share of the Performance Shares shall become fully and immediately vested on the effective date of the Participant’s termination of employment. The pro rata share equals the greater of 100% of the Target Number of Performance Shares or the percentage of the Target Number of Performance Shares earned based on actual performance under Exhibit A as of the time of the Change in Control as determined by the Committee. For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” has the meaning set forth in the employment agreement, if any, between the Company and/or any Subsidiary and the Participant or, if the Participant is not a party to such an agreement, “Good Reason” has the meaning set forth in the Plan. The vesting rules


 
7 under this Section 5(a), and not Section 2(b)(ii) or Section 2(b)(iii), shall apply in the event that a Participant has met the Rule of 65 at the time of any such termination of employment. (b) The Target Number of Performance Shares or, if greater, the percentage of the Target Number of Performance Shares earned based on actual performance under Exhibit A as of the time of the Change in Control, as determined by the Committee, shall become immediately vested if this Award is terminated on or after certain Change in Control transactions under the circumstances set forth in Section 9.8(b) of the Plan, as in effect on the date hereof. In the event that any Change in Control described in Section 9.8(b) is also a Section 409A CIC, payment with respect to any vested Performance Shares under this Section 5(b) shall be made within ten (10) days after any such Change in Control. A Change in Control described under this Section 5(b) that does not qualify for accelerated payment under the immediately preceding sentence shall be payable at the same time as is applicable to employees who continue employment with the Company or its Subsidiaries as described in Section 2(a) above. 6. Confidentiality, Non-Solicitation and Non-Compete. The Participant agrees, understands, and acknowledges that by executing this Agreement, the Participant shall be bound by, and shall abide by the restrictive covenants set forth in Appendix A of this Agreement (the “Restrictive Covenants”). The Participant further agrees, understands and acknowledges that the scope and duration of the Restrictive Covenants contained in this Agreement are reasonable and necessary to protect a legitimate, protectable interest of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and that the Company, in its sole discretion, may require the Participant, as a condition to lapsing any restrictions on the Performance Shares, to acknowledge in writing that the Participant has not engaged, and is not in the process of engaging, in any of the activities described in this Section 6. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 6 only applies to the extent permissible by applicable law or regulation. 7. Right of Setoff; Recoupment. (a) Right of Setoff. The Company or any Subsidiary may, to the extent permitted by applicable law and which would not trigger tax under Section 409A of the Code, deduct from and set off against any amounts the Company or Subsidiary may owe to the Participant from time to time, including amounts payable in connection with this Agreement, owed as wages, fringe benefits, or other compensation owed to the Participant, such amounts as may be owed by the Participant to the Company or a Subsidiary, although the Participant shall remain liable for any part of the Participant’s payment obligation not satisfied through such deduction and setoff. By accepting any Performance Shares granted hereunder, the Participant agrees to any deduction or setoff under this Section 7(a). (b) Termination of this Agreement; Recoupment. The Agreement shall terminate automatically and be subject to clawback and recoupment on the date the Participant violates a Restrictive Covenant or commits an act of theft, embezzlement of funds or fraud involving money or property of the Company or any Subsidiary. Any outstanding Performance Shares, whether vested or unvested, shall terminate automatically as of the date of such violation of a Restrictive Covenant or commission of an act of theft, embezzlement or fraud and the Participant shall forfeit such Performance Shares. With respect to any Performance Shares that vested within the one (1)-


 
8 year period prior to the date of such violation of any Restrictive Covenant or commission of an act of theft, embezzlement or fraud, the Participant shall pay the Company or Subsidiary, within forty- five (45) calendar days of receipt by the Participant of a written demand therefor, or pursuant to such other time frame as the Company or Subsidiary, in its sole discretion, agrees to in writing with the Participant, an amount in cash determined by multiplying the number of such Performance Shares by the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of such vesting. (c) Injunctive Action. The Participant acknowledges that if he or she violates the terms of Sections 6 or 7, the injury that would be suffered by the Company and/or a Subsidiary as a result of a breach of the provisions of this Agreement (including any Restrictive Covenant described in Section 6 or provision of Section 7(b)) would be irreparable and that an award of monetary damages to the Company and/or a Subsidiary for such a breach would be an inadequate remedy. Consequently, the Company and/or a Subsidiary will have the right, in addition to any other rights it may have, including the right to forfeiture and clawback under this Agreement, to obtain injunctive relief to restrain any breach or threatened breach or otherwise to specifically enforce any provision of this Agreement, and the Company and/or a Subsidiary will not be obligated to post bond or other security in seeking such relief. Without limiting the Company’s or Subsidiary’s rights under this Section 7 or any other remedies of the Company or a Subsidiary, if the Participant breaches any Restrictive Covenant described in Section 6 or the provisions of Section 7(b), the Company will have the right to cancel this Agreement. (d) Attorneys’ Fees. In addition to the rights available to the Company and its Subsidiaries under Sections 7(b) and (c), if the Participant violates the terms of Sections 6 or 7 at any time, the Company or Subsidiary shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Participant of any fees and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by or on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary in enforcing the Company’s or a Subsidiary’s rights under this Section 7. In addition to any injunctive relief sought under Section 7(c) and whether or not the Company or any Subsidiary elects to make any set-off in whole or in part, if the Company or any Subsidiary does not recover by means of set-off the full amount the Participant owes to the Company or any Subsidiary, calculated as set forth in this Section 7(d), the Participant agrees to immediately pay the unpaid balance to the Company or any Subsidiary. (e) Clawback Policy; Recoupment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any Performance Shares granted under this Agreement (including any amounts or benefits arising from or Shares issued with respect to such Performance Shares) shall be subject to potential cancellation, recoupment, rescission, payback or other action in accordance with the terms of the Company’s Clawback Policy, as it may be amended from time to time (the “Policy”). The Participant agrees and consents to the Company’s (and/or any Subsidiary’s) application, implementation and enforcement of (i) the Policy or any similar policy established by the Company and/or any Subsidiary that may apply to the Participant and (ii) any provision of applicable law relating to cancellation, rescission, payback or recoupment of compensation, and expressly agrees that the Company and/or any Subsidiary may take such actions as are necessary to effectuate the Policy, any similar policy (as applicable to the Participant) or applicable law without further consent or action being required by the Participant. The Company’s (and/or any Subsidiary’s) rights under the Policy shall be in addition to, and not in substitution of, the Company’s (and/or any Subsidiary’s) rights under this Agreement or otherwise and, in all events,


 
9 the terms of the Policy shall prevail to the extent that the terms of the Policy conflict with this Agreement or any other plan, program, agreement or arrangement. 8. Section 409A of the Code. (a) It is intended that this Agreement shall comply with Section 409A of the Code and any regulations and guidelines issued thereunder (collectively, “Section 409A”) to the extent this Agreement is subject thereto. This Agreement shall be interpreted on a basis consistent with such intent. (b) If any payments or benefits provided to the Participant under this Agreement are non-qualified deferred compensation subject to, and not exempt from, Section 409A, the following provisions shall apply to such payments and/or benefits: (i) For payments and benefits triggered by termination of employment, reference to the Participant’s “termination of employment” (and corollary terms) shall be construed to refer to the Participant’s “separation from service” (with such phrase determined under Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-1(h), as uniformly applied by the Company) in tandem with the termination of employment. (ii) If a Participant has a “separation from service” (within the meaning of Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-1(h)) and is deemed at that time to be a “specified employee” (within the meaning of Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-l(i)), any payment in settlement of a Performance Share that is triggered by such separation from service shall not be made prior to the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six (6)-month period measured from the date of “separation from service” and (ii) the date of the Participant’s death as required to comply with Section 409A(a)(2)(B) of the Code. Any other payments shall be paid in accordance with the normal payment dates specified herein. Any settlement that is not triggered by a separation from service shall be unaffected by the six (6)-month delay rule. (iii) Each Performance Share shall be treated as a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A of the Code. Whenever a payment under this Agreement specifies a payment period with reference to a number of days, the actual date of payment within the specified period shall be within the sole discretion of the Company. (i) Except as specifically permitted in this Agreement, no acceleration of the time or schedule of any payment may be made hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, payments may be accelerated hereunder (without any direct or indirect election on the part of the Participant), in accordance with the provisions of Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-3(j)(4), including to pay employment-related taxes under Section 4 due to the vesting of Performance Shares. (iv) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall any payment of deferred compensation be subject to offset by any other amount unless otherwise permitted by Section 409A. (c) If an amendment of this Agreement is necessary in order for it to comply with Section 409A, the Participant and the Company agree to negotiate in good faith to amend this


 
10 Agreement in a manner that preserves the original intent of the parties to the extent reasonably possible. No action or failure by the Company in good faith to act, pursuant to this Section 8, shall subject the Company to any claim, liability, or expense, and the Company shall not have any obligation to indemnify or otherwise protect the Participant from the obligation to pay any taxes pursuant to Section 409A. The Company does not make any representations as to the personal income tax treatment of any payments or other benefits provided to the Participant. 9. Nature of Grant. In accepting the grant of the Performance Shares, the Participant acknowledges, understands and agrees that: (a) the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, it is discretionary in nature and it may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time, to the extent permitted by the Plan; (b) the grant of the Performance Shares is exceptional, voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of an award, or benefits in lieu of an award, even if Performance Shares have been granted in the past; (c) all decisions with respect to future grants of Performance Shares or other grants, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company; (d) the Participant is voluntarily participating in the Plan; (e) the Performance Shares and the Shares subject to the Performance Shares, and the income from and value of same, are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation; (f) the Performance Shares and the Shares subject to the Performance Shares, and the income from and value of same, are not part of normal or expected compensation for purposes of, including but not limited to, calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, end-of-service payments, bonuses, holiday pay, long-service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar payments; (g) unless otherwise agreed with the Company in writing, the Performance Shares and the Shares subject to the Performance Shares, and the income from and value of same, are not granted as consideration for, or in connection with, the service the Participant may provide as a director of a Subsidiary; (h) the future value of the underlying Shares is unknown, indeterminable and cannot be predicted with certainty; (i) no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from forfeiture of the Performance Shares resulting from the termination of the Participant’s employment (for any reason whatsoever, whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction where the Participant is employed or the terms of the Participant’s employment agreement, if any); and (j) neither the Company nor the Employer shall be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between the Participant’s local currency and the United States Dollar that may affect


 
11 the value of the Performance Shares or of any amounts due to the Participant pursuant to the settlement of Performance Shares or the subsequent sale of any Shares acquired upon settlement. 10. Miscellaneous Provisions. (a) No Service or Employment Rights. No provision of this Agreement or of the Performance Shares granted hereunder shall give the Participant any right to continue in the service or employ of the Company or any Subsidiary, create any inference as to the length of employment or service of the Participant, affect the right of the Company or any Subsidiary to terminate the employment or service of the Participant, with or without Cause, or give the Participant any right to participate in any employee welfare or benefit plan or other program (other than the Plan) of the Company or any Subsidiary. (b) Plan Document Governs. The Performance Shares are granted pursuant to the Plan, and the Performance Shares and this Agreement are in all respects governed by the Plan and subject to all of the terms and provisions thereof, whether such terms and provisions are incorporated in this Agreement by reference or are expressly cited.

The Participant is not obliged to consent to such collection, use, processing and transfer of personal data, but a refusal to provide such consent may affect his or her ability to participate in the Plan. The Company, or its Subsidiaries, may transfer Data among themselves or to third parties as necessary for the purpose of implementation, administration and management of the Plan. These various recipients of Data may be located elsewhere throughout the world. The Participant authorizes these various recipients of Data to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the purposes of implementing, administering and managing the Plan. The Participant may, at any time, review Data with respect to the Participant and require any necessary amendments to such Data. The Participant may withdraw his or her consent to use Data herein by notifying the Company in writing; however, the Participant understands that by withdrawing his or her consent to use Data, the Participant may affect his or her ability to participate in the Plan. (e) Severability. If a provision of this Agreement is or becomes illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction then that provision is to be construed either by modifying it to


 
12 the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable (if permitted by law) or disregarding it (if not), and that shall not affect the validity or enforceability in that jurisdiction of any other provision of this Agreement, or the validity or enforceability in other jurisdictions of that or any other provision of this Agreement. (f) Waiver; Cumulative Rights. The failure or delay of either party to require performance by the other party of any provision hereof shall not affect its right to require performance of such provision unless and until such performance has been waived in writing.

Any notice which either party hereto may be required or permitted to give the other shall be in writing and may be delivered personally or by mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the Chief Legal Officer, General Counsel & Corporate Secretary of the Company, at its then corporate headquarters, and the Participant at the Participant’s address (including any electronic mail address) as shown on the Company’s records, or to such other address as the Participant, by notice to the Company, may designate in writing from time to time. The Participant hereby consents to electronic delivery of any notices that may be made hereunder. (h) Acknowledgments.

This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon each successor and assign of the Company.

The Participant understands that the foregoing confidentiality and non-disparagement provisions do not prohibit the Participant from providing truthful information in good faith to any federal or state governmental agency, entity or official investigating an alleged violation of federal or state law or regulation. Nothing in this Agreement prohibits the Participant from engaging in legally protected conduct, including reporting possible violations of federal law or regulation to any governmental agency or entity, including but not limited to the Department of Justice, the Security and Exchange Commission, the Congress, and any agency Inspector General, or making other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of federal law or regulation.

Pursuant to Section 10(m) of the Agreement, if the Participant works or resides in a country reflected in this Non-U.S. Addendum or transfers residence and/or employment or service to a country reflected in this Non-U.S. Addendum, the special terms, conditions and provision for such country will apply to the Participant to the extent the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that the application of such terms, conditions and provisions is necessary for legal or administrative reasons (or the Company may establish alternative terms and conditions as may be necessary or advisable to accommodate the Participant’s transfer). BRAZIL Compliance with the Law. By accepting the Performance Shares, the Participant acknowledges his or her agreement to comply with applicable Brazilian laws and to pay any and all applicable Tax- Related Items. Nature of Grant. This provision supplements Section 9 (“Nature of Grant”) of the Agreement: By accepting the Performance Shares, the Participant agrees that (i) the Participant is making an investment decision and (ii) the value of the underlying Shares is not fixed and may increase or decrease over the vesting period without compensation to the Participant. MEXICO Plan Document Acknowledgement By accepting the Performance Shares, the Participant acknowledges that he or she has received a copy of the Plan and the Agreement, including this Non-U.S. Addendum, which the Participant has reviewed. The Participant acknowledges further that he or she accepts all the provisions of the Plan and the Agreement, including this Non-U.S. Addendum. The Participant also acknowledges that he or she has read and specifically and expressly approves the terms and conditions set forth in Section 9 (“Nature of Grant”) in the Agreement, which clearly provides as follows: (1) The Participant’s participation in the Plan does not constitute an acquired right; (2) The Plan and the Participant’s participation in it are offered by the Company on a wholly discretionary basis;


 
(3) The Participant’s participation in the Plan is voluntary; and (4) No member of the Company group is responsible for any decrease in the value of any Shares acquired at vesting and settlement of the Performance Shares. Labor Law Policy and Acknowledgment By accepting the Performance Shares, the Participant expressly recognizes that the Company, with registered offices at 3 Overlook Point, Lincolnshire, Illinois 60069, United States of America, is solely responsible for the administration of the Plan and that the Participant’s participation in the Plan and acquisition of Shares do not constitute an employment relationship between the Participant and the Company, as the Participant is participating in the Plan on a wholly commercial basis and his or her sole employer is Zebra Technologies Enterprise de Mexico, S. de R.L. de C.V. (“Zebra Mexico”), located at Jose Vasconcelos 105 int 201 Piso 2, Col Hipodromo Condesa, Cuauhtemoc, Ciudad de Mexico, DF, 06170, Mexico. Based on the foregoing, the Participant expressly recognizes that the Plan and the benefits that he or she may derive from participating in the Plan do not establish any rights between the Participant and the employer, Zebra Mexico, and do not form part of the employment conditions and/or benefits provided by Zebra Mexico, and any modification of the Plan or its termination shall not constitute a change or impairment of the terms and conditions of the Participant’s employment. The Participant further understands that his or her participation in the Plan is as a result of a unilateral and discretionary decision of the Company; therefore, the Company reserves the absolute right to amend and/or discontinue the Participant’s participation at any time without any liability to the Participant. Finally, the Participant hereby declares that he or she does not reserve to him- or herself any action or right to bring any claim against the Company for any compensation or damages regarding any provision of the Plan or the benefits derived under the Plan, and the Participant therefore grants a full and broad release to the Company, and its subsidiaries, branches, representative offices, shareholders, directors, officers, employees, agents, or legal representatives with respect to any claim that may arise.

(“Zebra Mexico”), ubicado en Jose Vasconcelos 105 int 201 Piso 2, Col Hipodromo Condesa, Cuauhtemoc, Ciudad de Mexico, DF, 06170, Mexico.

Asimismo, el Participante reconoce que su participación en el Plan se ha resultado de una decisión unilateral y discrecional de la Compañía; por lo tanto, la Compañía se reserva el derecho absoluto de modificar y/o terminar la participación del Participante en cualquier momento y sin responsabilidad alguna frente el Participante. Finalmente, el Participante por este medio declara que no se reserva ninguna derecho o acción en contra de la Compañía por cualquier compensación o daños y perjuicios en relación de las disposiciones del Plan o de los beneficios derivados del Plan, y por lo tanto, el Participante otorga el más amplio finiquito que en derecho proceda a la Compañía, y sus filiales, oficinas de representación, accionistas, directores, autoridades, empleados, agentes, o representantes legales en relación con cualquier demanda que pudiera surgir. Securities Law Notification. The Performance Shares granted, and any Shares acquired, under the Plan have not been registered with the National Register of Securities maintained by the Mexican National Banking and Securities Commission and cannot be offered or sold publicly in Mexico. In addition, the Plan, the Agreement and any other document relating to the Performance Shares may not be publicly distributed in Mexico. These materials are addressed to the Participant because of the Participant’s existing relationship with the Company and any Subsidiary, and these materials should not be reproduced or copied in any form. The offer contained in these materials does not constitute a public offering of securities but rather constitutes a private placement of securities addressed specifically to individuals who are present employees of Zebra Mexico made in accordance with


 
the provisions of the Mexican Securities Market Law, and any rights under such offering shall not be assigned or transferred. SINGAPORE Securities Law Notification. The Performance Shares are being granted pursuant to the “Qualifying Person” exemption under section 273(1)(f) of the Securities and Futures Act (Chapter 289, 2006 Ed.) (“SFA”). The Plan has not been and will not be lodged or registered as a prospectus with the Monetary Authority of Singapore. Hence, statutory liability under the SFA in relation to the content of prospectuses will not apply. The Participant should note that the Performance Shares are subject to section 257 of the SFA and hence the Performance Shares may not be offered or sold, or made the subject of an invitation for subscription or purchase, whether directly or indirectly, to persons in Singapore, unless such offer, sale or invitation is made (i) more than six (6) months from the Grant Date, (ii) pursuant to the exemptions under Part XIII Division 1 Subdivision (4) (other than section 280) of the SFA, or (iii) pursuant to, and in accordance with the conditions of, any other applicable provisions of the SFA. In addition, the Participant understands that he or she is permitted to sell Shares acquired under the Plan through the designated broker appointed under the Plan, if any, provided the resale of Shares acquired under the Plan takes place outside of Singapore through the facilities of a stock exchange on which the Shares are listed. The Shares are currently listed on the Nasdaq. Director Notification Requirement. If the Participant is a director, alternate director, substitute director or shadow director1 of a Singapore Subsidiary, the Participant must notify the Singapore Subsidiary in writing within two (2) business days of (i) becoming the registered holder of or acquiring an interest (e.g., Performance Shares, Shares, etc.) in the Company or any Subsidiary, or becoming an alternate director, substitute director or shadow director (as the case may be), whichever occurs last, or (ii) any change in a previously disclosed interest (e.g., sale of Shares). If the Participant is the chief executive officer (“CEO”) of a Singapore Subsidiary and the above notification requirements are determined to apply to the CEO of a Singapore Subsidiary, the above notification requirements also may apply to the Participant. UNITED KINGDOM Payment of Taxes. This provision supplements Section 4 of the Agreement: Without limitation to Section 4 of the Agreement, the Participant agrees that he or she is liable for all Tax-Related Items and hereby covenants to pay all such Tax-Related Items, as and when requested by the Company or, if different, the Employer or by Her Majesty’s Revenue & Customs (“HMRC”) (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority). The Participant also agrees 1 A shadow director is an individual who is not on the board of directors of the Singapore Subsidiary but who has sufficient control so that the board of directors of the Singapore Subsidiary acts in accordance with the directions or instructions of the individual.


 
to indemnify and keep indemnified the Company and, if different, the Employer against any Tax- Related Items that they are required to pay or withhold or have paid or will pay to HMRC (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority) on the Participant’s behalf. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant is a director or executive officer (within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act), the Participant understands that he or she may not be able to indemnify the Company for the amount of any income tax not collected from or paid by the Participant within ninety (90) days of the end of the U.K. tax year in which the event giving rise to the Tax-Related Items occurs, as it may be considered to be a loan and, therefore, it may constitute a benefit to the Participant on which additional income tax and National Insurance contributions (“NICs”) may be payable. The Participant understands that he or she will be responsible for reporting and paying any income tax due on this additional benefit directly to HMRC under the self-assessment regime and for paying to the Company and/or the Employer (as appropriate) the amount of any NICs due on this additional benefit, which may also be recovered from the Participant by any of the means referred to in Section 4 of the Agreement. * * * *


 
EXHIBIT 10.2 RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT This RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of /$GrantDate$/ (the “Grant Date”), is between ZEBRA TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and /$ParticipantName$/ (the “Participant”), relating to restricted stock units granted under the Zebra Technologies Corporation 2018 Long-Term Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Plan”). Capitalized terms used in this Agreement without definitions shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Plan. 1. Grant of Restricted Stock Units. (a) Grant. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement and pursuant to the provisions of the Plan, the Company hereby grants to the Participant as of the Grant Date /$GrantTxt$/ units, each of which represents the right to receive, subject to the vesting provisions below, one Share (a “Restricted Stock Unit”). This Agreement shall be null and void unless the Participant accepts this Agreement through the Company’s electronic delivery and acceptance process operated by Merrill not later than /$AcceptByDate$/. For purposes of this Agreement, “Share” means a share of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, US $0.01 par value per share. (b) Non-transferability. Except as otherwise permitted under the Plan or this Agreement, the Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder shall be non-transferable by the Participant during the Vesting Period set forth under Section 2 of this Agreement. 2. Vesting of Restricted Stock Units. (a) General Vesting Rule. Subject to Section 2(b) below, the Restricted Stock Units shall become vested and non-forfeitable over the three year period following the Grant Date (the “Vesting Period”), at a rate of one-third (1/3) of the Restricted Stock Units on the first, second and third anniversary of the Grant Date, provided that the Participant is then employed by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries. Restricted Stock Units vesting on the first two (2) anniversaries of the Grant Date shall be settled in whole Shares rounded down to the nearest whole Share, and any Restricted Stock Units vesting on the third anniversary of the Grant Date shall be settled in whole Shares rounded down to the nearest whole Share and cash for the value of any fractional Share (rounded to the nearest hundredth). (b) Additional Vesting Rules. Notwithstanding Section 2(a), the Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to the following additional vesting rules in the following circumstances: (i) Death or Disability. If the Participant terminates employment with the Company and/or any Subsidiary due to death or Disability, any unvested portion of the Restricted Stock Units as of the effective date of the Participant’s termination of employment shall immediately become fully vested. For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” has the meaning set forth in the employment agreement, if any, between the Company and/or any Subsidiary and the Participant or, if the Participant is not a party to such an agreement, “Disability” has the meaning ascribed to such term in the Plan.


 
2 (ii) Retirement. In the event of the Participant’s Retirement, any unvested portion of the Restricted Stock Units shall continue to vest for twelve (12) months under the same schedule as set forth under Section 2(a) above or, if earlier, the next anniversary of the Grant Date. No additional Restricted Stock Units will be treated as having vested under this Section 2(b)(ii) for purposes of this Agreement until the immediately following anniversary of the Grant Date. While continuing to vest under this Section 2(b)(ii), a Participant shall not be treated as continuing covered employment and there shall be no additional accelerated vesting under this Section 2(b) on account of another event described herein, such as the Participant’s death or Disability or a Change in Control under Section 5(b) following Retirement. For purposes of this Agreement, “Retire” and “Retirement” mean the Participant’s termination of employment with the Company and/or any Subsidiary that meets or exceeds the Rule of 65; provided, however that continued vesting under this Section 2(b)(ii) shall not apply if grounds to terminate the Participant’s employment for Cause existed at the time of termination (as determined by the Company in its sole discretion) either at the time of or following the Participant’s termination of employment. The “Rule of 65” means the sum of the Participant’s age and years of continuous service with the Company (including its predecessors) equals or exceeds sixty- five (65), provided that the Participant must meet both a minimum age of fifty-five (55) and a minimum of five (5) years of continuous service. Only full years of age and completed months of service shall be counted towards meeting the Rule of 65. (iii) Termination by the Company or any Subsidiary other than for Cause. In the event the Participant’s employment with the Company and/or any Subsidiary is terminated by the Company and/or any Subsidiary other than for Cause prior to meeting the Rule of 65 set forth in Section 2(b)(ii) above, a pro rata share of the Restricted Stock Units shall become vested and non-forfeitable, subject to, at the Company’s discretion, the Participant’s delivery and the effectiveness of a general release of all claims that Participant may have against the Company and/or any Subsidiary or persons affiliated with the Company and/or any Subsidiary in the form prescribed at the Company. The pro-rata share equals (A) the total number of Restricted Stock Units multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days from but excluding the Grant Date and to and including the effective date of the Participant’s termination of employment, and the denominator of which is 1,096, less (B) the Restricted Stock Units that previously vested under Section 2(a) before employment termination. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” has the meaning set forth in the employment agreement, if any, between the Company and/or any Subsidiary and the Participant or, if the Participant is not a party to such an agreement, “Cause” has the meaning, as determined by the Company in its sole discretion, set forth in the Plan. (iv) Termination for Cause; Other Termination of Employment. In the event the Participant’s employment with the Company and/or any Subsidiary is terminated for any reason other than as provided in Section 2(b)(i), (ii) or (iii), including for Cause, any unvested Restricted Stock Units as of the effective date of the Participant’s termination of employment shall immediately be forfeited without the requirement of any action by the Company.


 
3 (v) Participants Outside the United States. For purposes of this Agreement, if the Participant is employed or providing services outside the United States, the date the Participant’s employment with the Company and/or any Subsidiary is terminated shall mean the date the Participant is no longer actively providing services to Company or the Subsidiary employing the Participant (regardless of the reason for such termination and whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction in which the Participant is employed or providing services or the terms of the Participant’s employment agreement, if any) and, unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or by the Company, the Participant’s right to vest in the Restricted Stock Units under the Plan, if any, will terminate as of such date and will not be extended by any notice period (e.g., the Participant’s period of service would not include any contractual notice period or any period of “garden leave” or similar period mandated under employment laws in the jurisdiction in which the Participant is employed or providing service or the terms of the Participant’s employment agreement, if any). The Company shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when the Participant is no longer actively providing services for purposes of this Section 2(b)(v) (including whether the Participant may still be considered to be providing services while on a leave of absence). (vi) Breach of Restrictive Covenants. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2(b), if the Participant at any time breaches any of the Restrictive Covenants (as defined in Section 6), including after employment termination, then the Restricted Stock Units, whether previously vested or not, shall immediately be forfeited. 3. Settlement of Restricted Stock Units; Issuance of Shares. (a) No Shares shall be issued to the Participant with respect to a Restricted Stock Unit under this Agreement until it has become vested under Section 2 above. (i) The Company shall issue a Share within ninety (90) days after a Restricted Stock Unit becomes vested on a Participant’s regularly scheduled vesting date under Section 2(a). (ii) If a Participant terminates employment before the Participant’s regularly scheduled vesting date and becomes entitled to accelerated vesting of Restricted Stock Units under either Section 2(b)(i), Section 2(b)(iii) or Section 5(a), then the Company shall issue a Share with respect to each such Restricted Stock Unit within ninety (90) days after such termination of employment. (iii) If a Participant terminates employment before a Participant’s regularly scheduled vesting date and becomes entitled to accelerated vesting of Restricted Stock Units as described in Section 2(b)(ii), then the Company shall issue a Share with respect to each such Restricted Stock Unit at the same time (on the immediately following, regularly scheduled vesting date under Section 2(a)) as if the Participant had continued employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that the Company shall issue any such Shares as provided for in Section 3(a)(ii) above if any such employment termination as described in Section 2(b)(ii) occurs on or within the one (1)-year period following a Change in Control that is also a “change in the ownership or effective control


 
4 of a corporation, or a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of a corporation” within the meaning of Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-3(i)(5). Issuance of Shares under vested Restricted Stock Units shall in all events be subject to accelerated payment under Section 5(b) below and the requirements under Section 8 below. The Company will not deliver any fractional Share but will pay, in lieu thereof, cash equal to the Fair Market Value of any fractional Share. (b) When Shares are delivered under Section 3(a) above, the Company shall make a cash payment equal to the aggregate amount of cash dividends and other cash distributions that the Company would have paid to the Participant during the period commencing on the Grant Date and ending on the applicable vesting date in respect of the Shares that are being delivered under Section 3(a) had such Shares been issued to the Participant on the Grant Date, without interest. To the extent that the Restricted Stock Units are forfeited prior to vesting, the right to receive such cash payments under this Section 3(b) shall also be forfeited. (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant is resident or employed outside of the United Sates, the Company, in its sole discretion, may settle the Restricted Stock Units in the form of a cash payment to the extent settlement in Shares: (i) is prohibited under applicable law; (ii) would require the Participant, the Company or any Subsidiary to obtain the approval of any governmental and/or regulatory body in the Participant’s country; (iii) would result in adverse tax consequences for the Participant, the Company or a Subsidiary; or (iv) is administratively burdensome. Alternatively, the Company, in its sole discretion, may settle the Restricted Stock Units in the form of Shares but require the Participant to sell such Shares immediately or within a specified period following the Participant’s termination of employment (in which case, this Agreement shall give the Company authority to issue sales instructions on the Participant’s behalf). 4. Payment of Taxes. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement: (a) The provisions of Section 9.10 of the Plan are incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof. The Participant acknowledges that he or she may be required to pay to the Company or, if different, the Subsidiary that employs the Participant (the “Employer”), and that the Company, the Employer, or any Subsidiary shall have the right and are hereby authorized to withhold from any compensation or other amount owing to the Participant, applicable income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or other tax-related items (including taxes that are imposed on the Company or the Employer as a result of the Participant’s participation in the Plan but are deemed by the Company or the Employer to be an appropriate charge to the Participant) (collectively, “Tax-Related Items”), with respect to any issuance, transfer, or other taxable event under this Agreement or under the Plan and to take such action as may be necessary in the opinion of the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all obligations for the payment of such Tax-Related Items. The Participant further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (i) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units, including, but not limited to the grant, vesting and/or settlement of the Restricted Stock Units and the subsequent sale of Shares acquired upon settlement of the vested Restricted Stock Units; and (ii) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units to reduce or eliminate the Participant’s liability for Tax-Related Items


 
5 or achieve a particular tax result. Further, if the Participant is subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction, the Participant acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction. (b) The Company and/or the Employer shall withhold, or cause to be withheld, Shares otherwise vesting or issuable under the Restricted Stock Units in satisfaction of any applicable withholding tax obligations, unless the Company’s Chief Human Resources Officer permits the Participant to elect to satisfy such obligations by: (i) cash, wire transfer of immediately available funds or check; or (ii) if approved by the Committee, by delivery of a written or electronic notice that the Participant has placed a market sell order with a broker acceptable to the Company and/or the Employer with respect to Shares then issuable upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, and that the broker has been directed to pay a sufficient portion of the net proceeds of the sale to the Company and/or the Employer in satisfaction of the aggregate applicable withholding tax obligations; provided that payment of such proceeds is then made to the Company and/or the Employer upon settlement of such sale in satisfaction of the applicable withholding tax obligations, the number of Shares that may be so withheld or surrendered shall be limited to the number of Shares that have a Fair Market Value on the date of withholding no greater than the aggregate amount of such obligations based on the minimum individual statutory withholding rates in the Participant’s applicable jurisdictions for U.S. federal, state, local and foreign income tax and payroll tax purposes that are applicable to such taxable income. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Participant authorizes the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy the applicable withholding tax obligations from proceeds of the sale of Shares issuable under the Restricted Stock Units through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company and/or the Employer (on the Participant’s behalf pursuant to this authorization). If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in Shares, the Participant is deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject to the vested Restricted Stock Units, notwithstanding that a number of the Shares are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items. The Participant acknowledges that, regardless of any action taken by the Company, the Employer, or any Subsidiary the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items, is and remains the Participant’s responsibility and may exceed the amount, if any, actually withheld by the Company or the Employer. (c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company and/or the Employer shall not be obligated to deliver any certificate representing Shares issuable with respect to the Restricted Stock Units to, or to cause any such Shares to be held in book-entry form by, the Participant or the Participant’s legal representative unless and until the Participant or the Participant’s legal representative shall have paid the Tax-Related Items resulting from the grant, vesting or settlement of the Restricted Stock Units or any other taxable event related to the Restricted Stock Units. 5. Change in Control. The following provisions shall apply in the event of a Change in Control notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in Section 2 or Section 3 of this Agreement, and in all events subject to the restrictions in Section 8 below. (a) All Restricted Stock Units shall be become immediately vested if the Participant’s employment is terminated by the Participant for Good Reason or by the Company or any Subsidiary without Cause on or within one (1) year after certain Change in Control transactions


 
6 under the circumstances set forth in Section 9.8(a) of the Plan, as in effect on the date hereof. The vesting rules under this Section 5(a), and not Section 2(b)(ii) or Section 2(b)(iii), shall apply in the event that a Participant has met the Rule of 65 at the time of any such termination of employment. (b) All Restricted Stock Units shall be become immediately vested if this Award is terminated on or after certain Change in Control transactions under the circumstances set forth in Section 9.8(b) of the Plan, as in effect on the date hereof. In the event that any Change in Control described in Section 9.8(b) is also a “change in the ownership or effective control of a corporation, or a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of a corporation” within the meaning of Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-3(i)(5), payment with respect to any vested Restricted Stock Units under this Section 5(b) shall be made within ten (10) days after any such Change in Control. A Change in Control described under this Section 5(b) that does not qualify for accelerated payment under the immediately preceding sentence shall be payable at the same time as is applicable to employees who continue employment with the Company or its Subsidiaries as described in Section 2(a) above. 6. Confidentiality, Non-Solicitation and Non-Compete. The Participant agrees, understands, and acknowledges that by executing this Agreement, the Participant shall be bound by, and shall abide by the restrictive covenants set forth in Appendix A of this Agreement (the “Restrictive Covenants”). The Participant further agrees, understands and acknowledges that the scope and duration of the Restrictive Covenants contained in this Agreement are reasonable and necessary to protect a legitimate, protectable interest of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and that the Company, in its sole discretion, may require the Participant, as a condition to lapsing any restrictions on the Restricted Stock Units, to acknowledge in writing that the Participant has not engaged, and is not in the process of engaging, in any of the activities described in this Section 6. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 6 only applies to the extent permissible by applicable law or regulation. 7. Right of Setoff; Recoupment. (a) Right of Setoff. The Company or any Subsidiary may, to the extent permitted by applicable law and which would not trigger tax under Section 409A of the Code, deduct from and set off against any amounts the Company or Subsidiary may owe to the Participant from time to time, including amounts payable in connection with this Agreement, owed as wages, fringe benefits, or other compensation owed to the Participant, such amounts as may be owed by the Participant to the Company or a Subsidiary, although the Participant shall remain liable for any part of the Participant’s payment obligation not satisfied through such deduction and setoff. By accepting any Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder, the Participant agrees to any deduction or setoff under this Section 7(a). (b) Termination of this Agreement; Recoupment. The Agreement shall terminate automatically and be subject to clawback and recoupment on the date the Participant violates a Restrictive Covenant or commits an act of theft, embezzlement of funds or fraud involving money or property of the Company or any Subsidiary. Any outstanding Restricted Stock Units, whether vested or unvested, shall terminate automatically as of the date of such violation of a Restrictive Covenant or commission of an act of theft, embezzlement or fraud and the Participant shall forfeit


 
7 such Restricted Stock Units. With respect to any Restricted Stock Units that vested within the one (1) year period prior to the date of such violation of any Restrictive Covenant or commission of an act of theft, embezzlement or fraud, the Participant shall pay the Company, within forty-five (45) calendar days of receipt by the Participant of a written demand therefor, or pursuant to such other time frame as the Company, in its sole discretion, agrees to in writing with the Participant, an amount in cash determined by multiplying the number of such Restricted Stock Units by the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of such vesting. (c) Injunctive Action. The Participant acknowledges that if he or she violates the terms of Sections 6 or 7, the injury that would be suffered by the Company and/or a Subsidiary as a result of a breach of the provisions of this Agreement (including any Restrictive Covenant described in Section 6 or provision of Section 7(b)) would be irreparable and that an award of monetary damages to the Company and/or a Subsidiary for such a breach would be an inadequate remedy. Consequently, the Company and/or a Subsidiary will have the right, in addition to any other rights it may have, including the right to forfeiture and clawback under this Agreement, to obtain injunctive relief to restrain any breach or threatened breach or otherwise to specifically enforce any provision of this Agreement, and the Company and/or a Subsidiary will not be obligated to post bond or other security in seeking such relief. Without limiting the Company’s or Subsidiary’s rights under this Section 7 or any other remedies of the Company or a Subsidiary, if the Participant breaches any Restrictive Covenant described in Section 6 or the provisions of Section 7(b), the Company will have the right to cancel this Agreement. (d) Attorneys’ Fees.

The Participant agrees and consents to the Company’s application, implementation and enforcement of (i) the Policy or any similar policy established by the Company that may apply to the Participant and (ii) any provision of applicable law relating to cancellation, rescission, payback or recoupment of compensation, and expressly agrees that the Company may take such actions as are necessary to effectuate the Policy, any similar policy (as applicable to the Participant) or applicable law without further consent or action being required by the Participant. The Company’s rights under the Policy shall be in addition to, and not in substitution of, the Company’s rights under this Agreement or otherwise and, in all events, the


 
8 terms of the Policy shall prevail to the extent that the terms of the Policy conflict with this Agreement or any other plan, program, agreement or arrangement. 8. Section 409A of the Code. (a) It is intended that this Agreement shall comply with Section 409A of the Code and any regulations and guidelines issued thereunder (collectively, “Section 409A”) to the extent this Agreement is subject thereto. This Agreement shall be interpreted on a basis consistent with such intent. (b) If any payments or benefits provided to the Participant under this Agreement are non-qualified deferred compensation subject to, and not exempt from, Section 409A, the following provisions shall apply to such payments and/or benefits: (i) For payments and benefits triggered by termination of employment, reference to the Participant’s “termination of employment” (and corollary terms) shall be construed to refer to the Participant’s “separation from service” (with such phrase determined under Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-1(h), as uniformly applied by the Company) in tandem with the termination of employment. (ii) If a Participant has a “separation from service” (within the meaning of Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-l(h)) and is deemed at that time to be a “specified employee” (within the meaning of Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-l(i)), any payment in settlement of a Restricted Stock Unit that is triggered by such separation from service shall not be made prior to the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six (6)-month period measured from the date of “separation from service” and (ii) the date of the Participant’s death as required to comply with Section 409A(a)(2)(B) of the Code. Any other payments shall be paid in accordance with the normal payment dates specified herein. Any settlement that is not triggered by a separation from service shall be unaffected by the six (6)-month delay rule. (iii) Each Restricted Stock Unit shall be treated as a separate “payment” for purposes of Section 409A of the Code. Whenever a payment under this Agreement specifies a payment period with reference to a number of days, the actual date of payment within the specified period shall be within the sole discretion of the Company. (iv) Except as specifically permitted in this Agreement, no acceleration of the time or schedule of any payment may be made hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, payments may be accelerated hereunder (without any direct or indirect election on the part of the Participant), in accordance with the provisions of Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-3(j)(4), including to pay employment-related taxes under Section 4 due to the vesting of Restricted Stock Units. (v) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall any payment of deferred compensation be subject to offset by any other amount unless otherwise permitted by Section 409A. (c) If an amendment of this Agreement is necessary in order for it to comply with Section 409A, the Participant and the Company agree to negotiate in good faith to amend this


 
9 Agreement in a manner that preserves the original intent of the parties to the extent reasonably possible. No action or failure by the Company in good faith to act, pursuant to this Section 8, shall subject the Company to any claim, liability, or expense, and the Company shall not have any obligation to indemnify or otherwise protect the Participant from the obligation to pay any taxes pursuant to Section 409A. The Company does not make any representations as to the personal income tax treatment of any payments or other benefits provided to the Participant. 9. Nature of Grant.

Appendix B ADDENDUM TO THE RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT FOR PARTICIPANTS OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES In addition to the terms of the Plan and the Agreement, the Restricted Stock Units are subject to the following additional terms, conditions and provisions (this “Non-U.S. Addendum”). All capitalized terms as contained in this Non-U.S. Addendum shall have the same meaning as set forth in the Plan and/or the Agreement. Pursuant to Section 10(m) of the Agreement, if the Participant works or resides in a country reflected in this Non-U.S. Addendum or transfers residence and/or employment or service to a country reflected in this Non-U.S. Addendum, the special terms, conditions and provision for such country will apply to the Participant to the extent the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that the application of such terms, conditions and provisions is necessary for legal or administrative reasons (or the Company may establish alternative terms and conditions as may be necessary or advisable to accommodate the Participant’s transfer). BRAZIL Compliance with the Law. By accepting the Restricted Stock Units, the Participant acknowledges his or her agreement to comply with applicable Brazilian laws and to pay any and all applicable Tax-Related Items. Nature of Grant. This provision supplements Section 9 (“Nature of Grant”) of the Agreement: By accepting the Restricted Stock Units, the Participant agrees that (i) the Participant is making an investment decision and (ii) the value of the underlying Shares is not fixed and may increase or decrease over the vesting period without compensation to the Participant. MEXICO Plan Document Acknowledgement By accepting the Restricted Stock Units, the Participant acknowledges that he or she has received a copy of the Plan and the Agreement, including this Non-U.S. Addendum, which the Participant has reviewed. The Participant acknowledges further that he or she accepts all the provisions of the Plan and the Agreement, including this Non-U.S. Addendum. The Participant also acknowledges that he or she has read and specifically and expressly approves the terms and conditions set forth in Section 9 (“Nature of Grant”) in the Agreement, which clearly provides as follows: (1) The Participant’s participation in the Plan does not constitute an acquired right; (2) The Plan and the Participant’s participation in it are offered by the Company on a wholly discretionary basis;


 
(3) The Participant’s participation in the Plan is voluntary; and (4) No member of the Company group is responsible for any decrease in the value of any Shares acquired at vesting and settlement of the Restricted Stock Units. Labor Law Policy and Acknowledgment By accepting the Restricted Stock Units, the Participant expressly recognizes that the Company, with registered offices at 3 Overlook Point, Lincolnshire, Illinois 60069, United States of America, is solely responsible for the administration of the Plan and that the Participant’s participation in the Plan and acquisition of Shares do not constitute an employment relationship between the Participant and the Company, as the Participant is participating in the Plan on a wholly commercial basis and his or her sole employer is Zebra Technologies Enterprise de Mexico, S. de R.L. de C.V. (“Zebra Mexico”), located at Jose Vasconcelos 105 int 201 Piso 2, Col Hipodromo Condesa, Cuauhtemoc, Ciudad de Mexico, DF, 06170, Mexico. Based on the foregoing, the Participant expressly recognizes that the Plan and the benefits that he or she may derive from participating in the Plan do not establish any rights between the Participant and the employer, Zebra Mexico, and do not form part of the employment conditions and/or benefits provided by Zebra Mexico, and any modification of the Plan or its termination shall not constitute a change or impairment of the terms and conditions of the Participant’s employment. The Participant further understands that his or her participation in the Plan is as a result of a unilateral and discretionary decision of the Company; therefore, the Company reserves the absolute right to amend and/or discontinue the Participant’s participation at any time without any liability to the Participant. Finally, the Participant hereby declares that he or she does not reserve to him- or herself any action or right to bring any claim against the Company for any compensation or damages regarding any provision of the Plan or the benefits derived under the Plan, and the Participant therefore grants a full and broad release to the Company, and its subsidiaries, branches, representative offices, shareholders, directors, officers, employees, agents, or legal representatives with respect to any claim that may arise.

El Participante reconoce, además, que acepta todas las disposiciones del Plan, el Anuncio de la Subvención, y en el Acuerdo, incluyendo este Anexo A. El Participante también reconoce que ha leído y que concretamente aprueba de forma expresa los términos y condiciones establecidos en la Sección 9 (“Naturaleza de la Subvención”) del Acuerdo, que claramente dispone lo siguiente: (1) La participación del Participante en el Plan no constituye un derecho adquirido;


 
(2) El Plan y la participación del Participante en el Plan se ofrecen por la Compañía en su discrecionalidad total; (3) Que la participación del Participante en el Plan es voluntaria; y (4) La Compañía y sus Empresas Matrices, Subsidiarias y Afiliadas no son responsables de ninguna disminución en el valor de las acciones adquiridas al conferir las Restricted Stock Units. Política Laboral y Reconocimiento Al aceptar las RSUs, el Participante expresamente reconoce que la Compañía, con sus oficinas registradas y ubicadas en 3 Overlook Point, Lincolnshire, Illinois 60069, United States of America, es la única responsable por la administración del Plan y que la participación del Participante en el Plan y en su caso la adquisición de Acciones no constituyen una relación de trabajo entre el Participante y la Compañía, ya que el Participante participa en el Plan en un marco totalmente comercial y su único patrón es Zebra Technologies Enterprise de Mexico, S. de R.L. de C.V. (“Zebra Mexico”), ubicado en Jose Vasconcelos 105 int 201 Piso 2, Col Hipodromo Condesa, Cuauhtemoc, Ciudad de Mexico, DF, 06170, Mexico. Derivado de lo anterior, el Participante expresamente reconoce que el Plan y los beneficios que pudieran derivar de la participación en el Plan no establecen derecho alguno entre el Participante y el patrón, Zebra Mexico, y no forma parte de las condiciones de trabajo y/o las prestaciones otorgadas por Zebra Mexico, y que cualquier modificación al Plan o su terminación no constituye un cambio o desmejora de los términos y condiciones de la relación de trabajo del Participante. Asimismo, el Participante reconoce que su participación en el Plan se ha resultado de una decisión unilateral y discrecional de la Compañía; por lo tanto, la Compañía se reserva el derecho absoluto de modificar y/o terminar la participación del Participante en cualquier momento y sin responsabilidad alguna frente el Participante. Finalmente, el Participante por este medio declara que no se reserva ninguna derecho o acción en contra de la Compañía por cualquier compensación o daños y perjuicios en relación de las disposiciones del Plan o de los beneficios derivados del Plan, y por lo tanto, el Participante otorga el más amplio finiquito que en derecho proceda a la Compañía, y sus filiales, oficinas de representación, accionistas, directores, autoridades, empleados, agentes, o representantes legales en relación con cualquier demanda que pudiera surgir. Securities Law Notification. The Restricted Stock Units granted, and any Shares acquired, under the Plan have not been registered with the National Register of Securities maintained by the Mexican National Banking and Securities Commission and cannot be offered or sold publicly in Mexico. In addition, the Plan, the Agreement and any other document relating to the Restricted Stock Units may not be publicly distributed in Mexico. These materials are addressed to the Participant because of the Participant’s existing relationship with the Company and any Subsidiary, and these materials should not be reproduced or copied in any form. The offer contained in these materials does not constitute a public offering of securities but rather constitutes a private placement of securities addressed specifically to individuals who are present employees of Zebra Mexico made in accordance with


 
the provisions of the Mexican Securities Market Law, and any rights under such offering shall not be assigned or transferred. SINGAPORE Securities Law Notification. The Restricted Stock Units are being granted pursuant to the “Qualifying Person” exemption under section 273(1)(f) of the Securities and Futures Act (Chapter 289, 2006 Ed.) (“SFA”). The Plan has not been and will not be lodged or registered as a prospectus with the Monetary Authority of Singapore. Hence, statutory liability under the SFA in relation to the content of prospectuses will not apply. The Participant should note that the Restricted Stock Units are subject to section 257 of the SFA and hence the Restricted Stock Units may not be offered or sold, or made the subject of an invitation for subscription or purchase, whether directly or indirectly, to persons in Singapore, unless such offer, sale or invitation is made (i) more than six (6) months from the Grant Date, (ii) pursuant to the exemptions under Part XIII Division 1 Subdivision (4) (other than section 280) of the SFA, or (iii) pursuant to, and in accordance with the conditions of, any other applicable provisions of the SFA. In addition, the Participant understands that he or she is permitted to sell Shares acquired under the Plan through the designated broker appointed under the Plan, if any, provided the resale of Shares acquired under the Plan takes place outside of Singapore through the facilities of a stock exchange on which the Shares are listed. The Shares are currently listed on the Nasdaq. Director Notification Requirement. If the Participant is a director, alternate director, substitute director or shadow director1 of a Singapore Subsidiary, the Participant must notify the Singapore Subsidiary in writing within two (2) business days of (i) becoming the registered holder of or acquiring an interest (e.g., Restricted Stock Units, Shares, etc.) in the Company or any Subsidiary, or becoming an alternate director, substitute director or shadow director (as the case may be), whichever occurs last, or (ii) any change in a previously disclosed interest (e.g., sale of Shares). If the Participant is the chief executive officer (“CEO”) of a Singapore Subsidiary and the above notification requirements are determined to apply to the CEO of a Singapore Subsidiary, the above notification requirements also may apply to the Participant. UNITED KINGDOM Payment of Taxes. This provision supplements Section 4 of the Agreement: Without limitation to Section 4 of the Agreement, the Participant agrees that he or she is liable for all Tax-Related Items and hereby covenants to pay all such Tax-Related Items, as and when requested by the Company or, if different, the Employer or by Her Majesty’s Revenue & Customs (“HMRC”) (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority). The Participant also agrees 1 A shadow director is an individual who is not on the board of directors of the Singapore Subsidiary but who has sufficient control so that the board of directors of the Singapore Subsidiary acts in accordance with the directions or instructions of the individual.


 
to indemnify and keep indemnified the Company and, if different, the Employer against any Tax- Related Items that they are required to pay or withhold or have paid or will pay to HMRC (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority) on the Participant’s behalf. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant is a director or executive officer (within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act), the Participant understands that he or she may not be able to indemnify the Company for the amount of any income tax not collected from or paid by the Participant within ninety (90) days of the end of the U.K. tax year in which the event giving rise to the Tax-Related Items occurs, as it may be considered to be a loan and, therefore, it may constitute a benefit to the Participant on which additional income tax and National Insurance contributions (“NICs”) may be payable. The Participant understands that he or she will be responsible for reporting and paying any income tax due on this additional benefit directly to HMRC under the self-assessment regime and for paying to the Company and/or the Employer (as appropriate) the amount of any NICs due on this additional benefit, which may also be recovered from the Participant by any of the means referred to in Section 4 of the Agreement. * * * *

Capitalized terms used in this SAR Agreement without definitions shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Plan. 1. Grant of Stock Appreciation Right. (a) Grant. Subject to the provisions of this SAR Agreement and pursuant to the provisions of the Plan, the Company hereby grants to the Participant as of the Grant Date a stock appreciation right (the “SAR”) covering %%TOTAL_SHARES_GRANTED,’999,999,999’%-% shares (the “SAR Shares”) of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Stock”), at a price of %%OPTION_PRICE,’$999,999,999.99’%- per share (the “SAR Price”).

This SAR Agreement shall be null and void unless the Participant accepts this SAR Agreement by either (i) electronically accepting this SAR Agreement through the Company’s electronic delivery and acceptance process operated by Merrill or (ii) executing this SAR Agreement in the space provided below and returning it to the Company, in each case not later than 50 days from the Grant Date. (b) Term of the SAR. Unless the SAR terminates earlier pursuant to other provisions of the SAR Agreement, the SAR shall expire at 5:00 p.m., Central Time, on the seventh (7th) anniversary of the Grant Date (the “Expiration Date”). (c) Non-transferability. The SAR shall be nontransferable, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution, or as otherwise permitted under the Plan. 2. Vesting of the SAR. (a) General Vesting Rule. Prior to the Expiration Date, the SAR shall become and be exercisable as follows: Vesting Date Anniversary Percentage of SAR Exercisable Prior to the first anniversary of the Grant Date 0% On and after the first anniversary of the Grant Date 25% On and after the second anniversary of the Grant Date, an additional 25% On and after the third anniversary of the Grant Date, an additional 25% On and after the fourth anniversary of the Grant Date, an additional 25% provided, however, except as otherwise provided for under this SAR Agreement, the


 
2 Participant must remain employed by the Company or any Subsidiary continuously through the applicable vesting dates. (b) Additional Vesting Rules. Notwithstanding Section 2(a), the SAR shall be subject to the following additional vesting rules in the following circumstances: (i) Death or Disability. In the event the Participant’s employment with the Company and/or any Subsidiary is terminated due to Participant’s death or Disability, any unvested portion of the SAR as of the effective date of the Participant’s termination of employment shall immediately become fully vested and exercisable as of 5:00 p.m., Central Time, on the effective date of the Participant’s termination of employment and, together with any unexercised vested portion of the SAR, shall remain exercisable until the earlier of: (A) 5:00 p.m., Central Time, on the Expiration Date; or (B) 5:00 p.m., Central Time, on the date that is one (1) year after the effective date of the Participant’s termination of employment due to the Participant’s death or Disability. In the event of the Participant’s death, the Participant’s beneficiary or estate may exercise all or any portion of the vested SAR. For purposes of this SAR Agreement, “Disability” has the meaning set forth in the employment agreement, if any, between the Company and/or any Subsidiary and the Participant or, if the Participant is not a party to such an agreement, “Disability” has the meaning ascribed to such term in the Plan. (ii) Retirement or Termination by the Company or any Subsidiary other than for Cause. In the event the Participant’s employment with the Company and/or any Subsidiary is terminated due to Participant’s Retirement, or by the Company and/or any Subsidiary other than for Cause, the number of SAR Shares that shall be vested and exercisable as of 5:00 p.m., Central Time, on the effective date of the Participant’s termination of employment shall equal the number obtained by (A) multiplying the total number of SAR Shares granted as of the Grant Date under Section 1(a) by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days from but excluding the Grant Date and to and including the effective date of the Participant’s termination of employment, and the denominator of which is 1,461 and (B) subtracting from such product the number, if any, of SAR Shares that vested in accordance with Section 2(a) and became exercisable prior to the effective date of the Participant’s termination of employment. Any unexercised vested portion of the SAR shall remain exercisable until the earlier of: (A) 5:00 p.m., Central Time, on the Expiration Date; or (B) 5:00 p.m., Central Time, on the date that is one (1) year after the effective date of the Participant’s termination of employment due to Retirement; or (C) 5:00 p.m., Central Time, on the date that is ninety (90) days after the effective date of the Participant’s termination of employment by the Company and/or any Subsidiary other than for Cause. For purposes of this SAR Agreement, “Retirement” means the Participant’s


 
3 voluntary termination of employment with the Company and/or any Subsidiary which meets or exceeds the Rule of 65. The “Rule of 65” means the sum of the Participant’s age (in years) and years of continuous service with the Company (including its predecessors) equals or exceeds sixty-five (65), provided that the Participant must meet both a minimum age of fifty-five (55) and a minimum of five (5) years of continuous service. For purposes of determining Rule of 65, years of age and service equal full years and full completed months; and “Cause” has the meaning set forth in the employment agreement, if any, between the Company and/or any Subsidiary and the Participant or, if the Participant is not a party to such an agreement, “Cause” has the meaning, as determined by the Company in its sole discretion, set forth in the Plan. (iii)Termination for Cause; Breach of Restrictive Covenant. In the event the Participant’s employment with the Company and/or any Subsidiary is terminated for Cause or the Participant breaches any of the Restrictive Covenants (as defined in Section 6), any unexercised SAR, whether vested or not, shall expire as of the date of the event giving rise to the termination for Cause, be forfeited, and be considered null and void. (iv) Other Termination of Employment. In the event the Participant’s employment with the Company and/or any Subsidiary is terminated for any reason other than as provided in Section 2(b)(i), (ii) or (iii), any unexercised vested portion of the SAR as of the effective date of the Participant’s termination of employment shall remain exercisable until the earliest of: (A) 5:00 p.m., Central Time, on the Expiration Date; or (B) 5:00 p.m., Central Time, on the date that is thirty (30) days after the effective date of the Participant’s termination of employment. 3. Exercise of SAR. (a) Notice of Exercise. Prior to the Expiration Date, the vested portion of the SAR may be exercised, in whole or in part, by delivering written notice to the Company in accordance with Section 9(h) and in such form as the Company may require from time to time. Such notice of exercise shall specify the number of SAR Shares to be exercised. (b) Payment. As of the date of exercise of the SAR, the Company shall settle the exercised portion of the SAR as provided in Section 6.6 of the Plan. The amount of the payment for each SAR Share exercised shall equal (i) the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date of exercise, less (ii) the SAR Price for each such exercised SAR Share. The exercised SAR shall be settled in whole shares of Stock, and cash for the value of a fractional share of Stock. (c) Payment of Taxes. If the Company is obligated to withhold an amount on account of any tax imposed as a result of the exercise of the SAR, the Participant shall be required to pay such amount to the Company, as provided in Section 9.10 of the Plan. Alternatively, subject to Company approval, the Participant may elect to withhold a portion of the SAR exercise payment equal to the statutory tax that would be imposed on the exercise, as provided under Section 9.10 of the Plan. The Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Participant is responsible for the tax consequences associated with the grant of the SAR and its exercise. (d) Death Prior to Exercise. In the event of the Participant’s death prior to the


 
4 exercise of any vested portion of the SAR, the Participant’s beneficiary or estate may exercise the vested SAR. 4. Compliance with Federal and State Law. The Company reserves the right to delay the Participant’s exercise of any portion of the SAR if the Company’s issuance of Stock upon such exercise would violate any applicable federal or state securities laws or any other applicable laws or regulations. The Participant may not sell or otherwise dispose of any portion of the SAR or any Stock in violation of any applicable law. The Company may postpone issuing and delivering any Stock in payment for the exercise of any portion of the SAR for so long as the Company reasonably determines to be necessary to satisfy the following: (i) its completing or amending any securities registration or qualification of the Stock or it or the Participant satisfying any exemption from registration under any federal, state or other law, rule or regulation; (ii) its receiving proof it considers satisfactory that a person seeking to exercise the SAR after the Participant’s death is entitled to do so; and (iii) the Participant complying with any federal, state or other tax withholding obligations. 5. Change in Control. Subject to Section 9.8 of the Plan: (a) Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement, in the event of a Change in Control pursuant to Section 2.5(c) or (d) of the Plan in connection with which (i) holders of Shares receive consideration consisting solely of shares of common stock that are registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act (and disregarding the payment of cash in lieu of fractional shares) and (ii) this SAR Agreement is assumed or provision is made for the continuation of this SAR Agreement, then subject to Section 4.3 of the Plan, this SAR Agreement shall continue in accordance with its terms, and there shall be substituted for each SAR Share then subject to this SAR Agreement, the number and class of shares into which each outstanding Share shall be converted pursuant to such Change in Control. In the event of any such substitution, the SAR Price shall be appropriately adjusted by the Board of Directors (the “Board”) or Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Committee”) (whose determination shall be final, binding and conclusive), such adjustments to be made without an increase in the aggregate SAR Price. In the event the Participant’s employment with the Company and/or any Subsidiary is terminated by the Participant for Good Reason or by Zebra or any Subsidiary other than for Cause on or after the date of such Change in Control, then any unvested portion of the SAR as of the effective date of the Participant’s termination of employment shall immediately become fully vested and exercisable and, together with any unexercised vested portion of the SAR, shall remain exercisable until the earlier of: (i) 5:00 p.m., Central Time, on the Expiration Date; or (ii) 5:00 p.m., Central Time, on the date that is ninety (90) days after the effective date of the Participant’s termination of employment. For purposes of this SAR Agreement, “Good Reason” has the meaning set forth in the employment agreement, if any, between the Company and/or any Subsidiary and the Participant or, if the Participant is not a party to such an agreement, “Good Reason” has the meaning set forth in the Plan.


 
5 (b) Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event of a Change in Control pursuant to Section 2.5(a) or (b) of the Plan, or in the event of a Change in Control pursuant to Section 2.5(c) or (d) of the Plan as to which Section 5(a) above does not apply, this SAR Agreement shall be surrendered to the Company by the Participant, and this SAR Agreement shall immediately be canceled by the Company, and the Participant shall receive, within ten (10) days following the effective date of the Change in Control, a cash payment from the Company in an amount equal to the number of SAR Shares then subject to this SAR, multiplied by the excess, if any, of the greater of (i) the highest per Share price offered to stockholders of the Company in any transaction whereby the Change in Control takes place or (ii) the Fair Market Value of a Share on the effective date of the Change in Control, over the SAR Price. 6. Confidentiality, Non-Solicitation and Non-Compete. The Participant agrees, understands, and acknowledges that by executing this SAR Agreement, the Participant shall be bound by, and shall abide by the restrictive covenants set forth in Appendix A of this SAR Agreement (the “Restrictive Covenants”). The Participant further agrees, understands and acknowledges that the scope and duration of the Restrictive Covenants contained in this SAR Agreement are reasonable and necessary to protect a legitimate, protectable interest of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and that the Company, in its sole discretion, may require the Participant, as a condition to the exercise of this SAR, to acknowledge in writing that the Participant has not engaged, and is not in the process of engaging, in any of the activities described in this Section 6. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 6 only applies to the extent permissible by applicable law or regulation. 7. Right of Setoff; Recoupment. (a) Right of Setoff. The Company or any Subsidiary may, to the extent permitted by applicable law and which would not trigger tax under Code Section 409A, deduct from and set off against any amounts the Company or Subsidiary may owe to the Participant from time to time, including amounts payable in connection with this SAR Agreement, owed as wages, fringe benefits, or other compensation owed to the Participant, such amounts as may be owed by the Participant to the Company or a Subsidiary, although the Participant shall remain liable for any part of the Participant’s payment obligation not satisfied through such deduction and setoff. By accepting any SAR granted hereunder, the Participant agrees to any deduction or setoff under this Section 7(a). (b) Termination of the SAR; Recoupment. Any SAR granted under this SAR Agreement (including any amounts or benefits arising from such SARs), regardless of whether such SARs are otherwise vested, shall terminate automatically and be subject to clawback and recoupment on the date the Participant violates a Restrictive Covenant or commits an act of theft, embezzlement of funds or fraud involving money or property of the Company or any Subsidiary. Any outstanding, unexercised SARs, whether vested or unvested, shall terminate automatically as of the date of such violation of a Restrictive Covenant or commission of an act of theft, embezzlement or fraud and the Participant shall forfeit such SARs. With respect to any SARs that were exercised within the one (1)-year period prior to the date of such violation of any Restrictive Covenant or commission of an act of theft, embezzlement or fraud, the Participant shall pay the Company, within forty-five (45) calendar days of receipt by the Participant of a written demand therefor, or pursuant to such other time frame as the Company, in its sole discretion, agrees to in


 
6 writing with the Participant, an amount in cash determined by multiplying the number of Shares as to which the SAR was exercised by the difference between (i) the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of such exercise and (ii) the SAR Price per SAR (without reduction for any Shares withheld by the Company pursuant to Section 3(a)). (c) Injunctive Action. The Participant acknowledges that if he or she violates the terms of Sections 6 or 7, the injury that would be suffered by the Company and/or a Subsidiary as a result of a breach of the provisions of this SAR Agreement (including any Restrictive Covenant described in Section 6 or provision of Section 7(b)) would be irreparable and that an award of monetary damages to the Company and/or a Subsidiary for such a breach would be an inadequate remedy. Consequently, the Company and/or a Subsidiary will have the right, in addition to any other rights it may have, including the right to forfeiture and clawback under this SAR Agreement, to obtain injunctive relief to restrain any breach or threatened breach or otherwise to specifically enforce any provision of this SAR Agreement, and the Company and/or Subsidiary will not be obligated to post bond or other security in seeking such relief. Without limiting the Company’s or Subsidiary’s rights under this Section 7 or any other remedies of the Company or a Subsidiary, if the Participant breaches any Restrictive Covenant described in Section 6 or the provisions of Section 7(b), the Company will have the right to cancel this SAR Agreement. (d) Attorneys’ Fees. In addition to the rights available to the Company and its Subsidiaries under Sections 7(b) and 7(c), if the Participant violates the terms of Sections 6 or 7 at any time, the Company shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Participant of any fees and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by or on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary in enforcing the Company’s or a Subsidiary’s rights under this Section 7. In addition to any injunctive relief sought under Section 7(c), and whether or not the Company or any Subsidiary elects to make any set-off in whole or in part, if the Company or any Subsidiary does not recover by means of set-off the full amount the Participant owes to the Company or any Subsidiary, calculated as set forth in this Section 7(d), the Participant agrees to immediately pay the unpaid balance to the Company or any Subsidiary. (e) Clawback Policy; Recoupment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this SAR Agreement to the contrary, any SAR granted under this SAR Agreement (including any amounts or benefits arising from such SARs) shall be subject to potential cancellation, recoupment, rescission, payback or other action in accordance with the terms of the Company’s Clawback Policy, as it may be amended from time to time (the “Policy”). The Participant agrees and consents to the Company’s application, implementation and enforcement of (i) the Policy or any similar policy established by the Company that may apply to the Participant and (ii) any provision of applicable law relating to cancellation, rescission, payback or recoupment of compensation, and expressly agrees that the Company may take such actions as are necessary to effectuate the Policy, any similar policy (as applicable to the Participant) or applicable law without further consent or action being required by the Participant. The Company’s rights under the Policy shall be in addition to, and not in substitution of, the Company’s rights under this SAR Agreement or otherwise and, in all events, the terms of the Policy shall prevail to the extent that the terms of the Policy conflict with this SAR Agreement or any other plan, program, agreement or arrangement. 8. Nature of Grant. In accepting the grant of this SAR, the Participant acknowledges, understands and agrees that:

Miscellaneous Provisions. (a) No Service or Employment Rights. No provision of this SAR Agreement or of the SAR granted hereunder shall give the Participant any right to continue in the service or employ of the Company or any Subsidiary, create any inference as to the length of employment or service of the Participant, affect the right of the Company or any Subsidiary to terminate the employment or service of the Participant, with or without Cause, or give the Participant any right to participate in any employee welfare or benefit plan or other program (other than the Plan) of the Company or any Subsidiary.

13 from providing truthful information in good faith to any federal or state governmental agency, entity or official investigating an alleged violation of federal or state law or regulation. Nothing in this Agreement prohibits the Participant from engaging in legally protected conduct, including reporting possible violations of federal law or regulation to any governmental agency or entity, including but not limited to the Department of Justice, the Security and Exchange Commission, the Congress, and any agency Inspector General, or making other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of federal law or regulation.

The Participant also understands that if the Participant files a lawsuit for retaliation by the Company for reporting a suspected violation of law, the Participant may disclose the trade secret to the Participant’s attorney and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if (a) the Participant files any document containing the trade secret under seal; and (b) does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order. 5. Certifications.
