Exit

 

10.1.

Effect of an Exit

 

10.1.1.

In General

Upon the occurrence of an Exit, subject to any consent required under the Shareholders Agreement, the Compensation Committee may prescribe and amend the terms and conditions for the vesting, exercise and/or settlement of any Awards granted under the LTPP, provided that such amendments are not materially adverse to the Participants and do not compromise the interests of the Participants. Such power and discretion shall include, but not be limited to, the power and authority to (i) reduce or abolish lock-up periods and to (ii) modify the requirements and modality for the settlement of any Awards (including a cash settlement in case of a full Exit in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value minus the Exercise Price or nominal value of the Shares, if any, subject to any Tax Withholding).

 

11


On Holding AG – LTPP

 

 

 

10.1.2.

Participants and Good Leavers

Upon the occurrence of an Exit Event, Participants and Good Leavers may sell or may be required to sell their Shares acquired under the LTPP in accordance with the rules of the Shareholders’ Agreement at the Fair Market Value subject to any applicable Tax Withholding.

 

11.

Changes in Capital Structure

In the event of a change, other than a share capital increase, relating to the Shares through reclassification, recapitalization, subdivision, stock dividend, stock split-up or otherwise in the Company’s corporate structure, the Compensation Committee shall, to the extent permissible by law, adjust the terms of the Awards then outstanding to ensure that the Participants receive in respect of each Award, upon exercise or settlement, the same value in cash and/or type of stock that each Participant would have been entitled to receive without such change.

 

12.

Taxation and Social Security

Awards may be subject to income tax and/or social security. In Switzerland, Awards will be subject to Swiss income tax and Swiss social security contributions upon exercise (in case of Options) or vesting (in case of Phantom Shares). A subsequent sale of the Shares acquired under the LTPP may, depending on the individual circumstances and the amount of the capital gain realized, trigger Swiss income tax and Swiss social security contributions as well. Swiss social security contributions legally due will be borne by the Subsidiary and the relevant Participant in accordance with applicable law and regulations.

Depending on the Participant’s residence, place of work or nationality, Awards may be subject to income tax and/or social security contributions in jurisdictions other than Switzerland. Each Participant is responsible for a proper declaration and payment of his/her personal income taxes, including capital gains taxes, if any, that may arise from participation in the LTPP in each relevant jurisdiction.

 

13.

No Entitlements

 

13.1.

No Shareholder Rights

An Award does not include any shareholder rights (such as voting, dividend and information right).

 

13.2.

No Right to Future Grants

Besides stated in the individual employment agreement, a nomination under the LTPP for a specific year shall not confer any right or entitlement to be nominated and granted any Awards in future years or to participate in any future employee participation plan.

 

12


On Holding AG – LTPP

 

 

 

13.3.

No Right to Continued Employment

The LTPP does not constitute an employment agreement. Nothing contained herein shall modify the terms of the Participants’ respective employment or restrict the Subsidiary’s right to terminate the employment of any Participant at any time, with or without Cause, or to adjust the compensation of any Participant.

 

14.

Administration

The LTPP shall be administrated by the Compensation Committee.

The Compensation Committee is authorized and shall have full power and authority, subject to the provisions of the LTPP, to establish such rules and regulations as it may deem appropriate for the proper administration and operation of the LTPP, and to make such determinations under, and such interpretations of, and to take such steps in connection with, the LTPP and the Awards granted thereunder as it may deem necessary or advisable.

The Compensation Committee’s decisions, determinations and interpretations shall be final and binding on all Participants and any other holders of Awards or Shares hereunder.

 

15.

Amendment

The Compensation Committee may make any amendments to the LTPP that may be necessary to comply with or conform to applicable laws. Furthermore, the Compensation Committee shall have the power to modify the LTPP as necessary to conform to the Shareholders Agreement solely to the extent such modifications would not adversely affect a Participant.

 

16.

Confidentiality

The LTPP is confidential to the business. The terms and conditions of the LTPP and any individual Award grant shall therefore be kept strictly confidential (and may be shared only with [the spouse and] the personal advisors of the Participant), unless disclosure is required by mandatory law.

 

17.

Effective Date and Term

The LTPP has been approved by the Board of Directors on [DATE]. The LTPP shall be effective as of [DATE] and shall be valid until the later of [DATE] or all Awards granted under the LTPP have been settled, exercised, forfeited, or otherwise canceled or any lock-up of such Shares have been expired or any purchase options of the Company have been exercised or lapsed.
