2007 OMNIBUS INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PLAN
PERFORMANCE SHARE AWARD AGREEMENT
THIS PERFORMANCE SHARE AWARD AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”), dated as of March 6, 2012 (the “Award Date”), is made by and between Genpact Limited, an exempted limited company organized under the laws of Bermuda (the “Company”) and (“Participant”). To the extent not defined herein, all capitalized terms in this Agreement shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Genpact Limited 2007 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Plan”).
RECITALS:
WHEREAS, the Company has adopted the Plan for the purpose of promoting the interests of the Company and its shareholders by attracting and retaining exceptional directors, officers, employees and consultants and enabling such individuals to participate in the long-term growth and financial success of the Company.
WHEREAS, the Committee has determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to grant to Participant a performance share award under the Plan as provided for herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the premises and covenants of the parties contained in this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, for themselves, their successors and assigns, hereby agree as follows:
1.Grant of Performance Shares Award.The Company hereby awards to Participant, as of the Award Date, a performance share award (the “Award”) under the Plan entitling Participant to receive a number of Shares based on the extent, if any, to which the applicable vesting criteria are satisfied. The initial number of Shares that shall be used to determine Participant’s rights pursuant to this Award is «Shares_Granted» (the “Target Performance Shares”). The number of Target Performance Shares shall be used solely to calculate the maximum number of Shares that may be issued to Participant under this Agreement (“Actual Performance Shares”). Both the number of Target Performance Shares and Actual Performance Shares shall be subject to adjustment as set forth in the Plan. The number of Shares issuable under the Award may be subject to reduction as set forth in Paragraph 3.
2.Vesting Requirements. The Shares subject to the Award shall initially be unvested and shall vest only in accordance with the vesting provisions of this Paragraph 2 or the special vesting acceleration provisions of Paragraph 4. The Shares in which Participant shall vest under this Paragraph 2 shall be determined pursuant to a two-step process: (i) first there shall be calculated the maximum number of Shares in which Participant can vest based upon the level at which the Performance Goals specified in Appendix A of this Agreement (the “Performance Goals”) for the performance period commencing on January 1, 2012 and ending on December 31, 2012 (the “Performance Period”) are actually attained and (ii) then the number of the Actual Performance Shares resulting from the clause (i) calculation in which Participant shall actually
vest shall be determined on the basis of Participant’s completion of the applicable service vesting provisions set forth below. Accordingly, the vesting of the Shares shall be calculated as follows:
(a)Performance Vesting. The number of Actual Performance Shares to which Participant may become entitled under this Agreement shall be calculated following the end of the Performance Period and shall be based on the level at which the Performance Goals for the Performance Period are determined to have been attained. The number of Actual Performance Shares to which Participant may become entitled at the end of the Performance Period shall be calculated by multiplying the designated number of Target Performance Shares by a performance percentage ranging from 0% to 150%. The actual performance percentage to be used for such purpose shall be determined in accordance with the methodology set forth in Appendix A and shall be tied to the attained level of Company performance for the Performance Period described in Appendix A. In no event may the number of Actual Performance Shares exceed one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Target Performance Shares.
(b)Service Vesting: The Actual Performance Shares so determined represent the maximum number of Shares in which Participant can vest hereunder. The actual number of Shares in which Participant shall vest shall be determined as follows:
(i) If Participant remains in continued employment or service with the Company or an Affiliate from January 1, 2012 through December 31, 2014 (the “Service Period”), on December 31, 2014, Participant shall vest in 100% of the Actual Performance Shares.
(ii) In the event of Participant’s termination of continued employment or service with the Company or an Affiliate that occurs during the Service Period by reason of death or Disability, Participant shall be entitled to receive a number of Shares determined by multiplying (A) the number of Actual Performance Shares (if any) to which Participant would be entitled based on the actual level at which the Performance Goals are achieved by (B) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of months of employment or service in the Service Period prior to the termination (rounded up to the closest whole month) and the denominator of which is thirty-six (36).
(iii) Should Participant cease continued employment or service with the Company or an Affiliate for any other reason prior to the end of the Service Period, the Award shall be immediately canceled and Participant shall thereupon cease to have any right or entitlement to receive any Shares under the Award.
3.Performance Goals.
(a)Committee Determination. Following the end of the Performance Period, the Committee shall determine whether and the extent to which the Performance Goals have been achieved for the Performance Period and shall determine the number of Actual Performance Shares, if any, issuable to Participant with respect to the level of achievement of the Performance Goals based on completion of the service vesting requirement; provided that with respect to any Award to a “covered employee” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code, the Committee shall have certified the achievement of the Performance Goals. The
2
Committee’s determinations with respect to the achievement of the Performance Goals shall be based on the Company’s audited financial statements, subject to any adjustments made by the Committee in accordance with Paragraph 3(b) below. If the threshold levels for the Performance Goals are not achieved, the Award shall be cancelled and Participant shall thereupon cease to have any right or entitlement to receive any Shares under the Award
(b)Committee Discretion to Reduce or Eliminate Award. Notwithstanding satisfaction, achievement or completion of the Performance Goals (or any adjustments thereto as provided below), the number of Shares issuable hereunder may be reduced or eliminated by the Committee on the basis of such further considerations as the Committee in its sole discretion shall determine.
(c)Modification of Performance Goals. The Committee shall have the right to adjust or modify the calculation of the Performance Goals as permitted under the Plan.
(d)Section 162(m). To the extent the Committee has determined that this Award is intended to comply with the performance-based exception to Section 162(m) of the Code and Participant is a “covered employee” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code, all actions taken hereunder (including without limitation any adjustments of Performance Goals) shall be made in a manner which would comply with Section 162(m) of the Code.
4.Change of Control: In the event a Change of Control occurs during the Service Period, the number of Shares issuable under this Award and the date of issuance of the Shares shall be determined as follows notwithstanding any provisions of this Agreement or the Plan to the contrary:
(a) In the event the Change of Control occurs prior to completion of the Performance Period and Participant remains in continued employment or service with the Company or an Affiliate through the effective date of that Change of Control, then this Award shall be converted into a right to receive the number of Target Performance Shares without any measurement of Performance Goal attainment to date, subject to the provisions of Paragraphs 4(c) and 4(d) below.
(b) If the Change of Control occurs on or after completion of the Performance Period but prior to completion of the Service Period and Participant remains in continued employment or service with the Company or an Affiliate through the effective date of that Change of Control, this Award shall entitle Participant to receive the number of Actual Performance Shares based on the level of attainment of the Performance Goals, subject to the provisions of Paragraphs 4(c) and 4(d) below.
(c) If this Award is assumed, continued or substituted in connection with the Change of Control in accordance with the Plan, then provided Participant remains in continued employment or service with the Company or an Affiliate through the completion of the Service Period, the Shares issuable under this Award (as determined in accordance with the applicable provisions of Paragraphs 4(a) and 4(b)) or other consideration payable in connection with such assumption, continuation or substitution, shall be issued on January 1, 2015 or as soon as practicable thereafter but in no event later than March 15, 2015. If Participant’s continued
3
employment or service terminates prior to completion of the Service Period, then except as otherwise provided in Paragraph 4(f) and Paragraph 4(g), the Award shall be immediately cancelled upon such termination and Participant shall thereupon cease to have any right or entitlement to receive any Shares or other consideration under the Award.
(d) If this Award is not assumed, continued or substituted in connection with the Change of Control in accordance with the Plan, then the Shares issuable under this Award (as determined pursuant to Paragraphs 4(a) or 4(b)) or other consideration payable with respect to such Shares in consummation of the Change of Control shall be issued on the effective date of the Change of Control or as soon as administratively practicable thereafter, but in no event more than fifteen (15) business days after such effective date.
(e) Following a Change of Control, Participant shall not have any right to receive any Shares under this Award in excess of the number of Shares determined under this Paragraph 4.
(f) In the event of Participant’s termination of continued employment or service with the Company or an Affiliate that occurs during the Service Period by reason of death or Disability, Participant shall be entitled to receive a number of Shares determined by multiplying (A) the number of Shares (if any) to which Participant would be entitled in accordance with the applicable provisions of Paragraphs 4(a) and 4(b) had Participant’s employment or service not terminated by (B) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of months of service in the Service Period prior to the termination (rounded up to the closest whole month) and the denominator of which is thirty-six (36). To the extent not issued at the time of the Change of Control, such Shares (or other consideration issuable under this Award) shall be issued immediately upon such termination or as soon as practicable thereafter, but not later than the fifteenth (15th) day of the third (3rd) calendar month following the year of such termination.
(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the event of Participant’s Involuntary Termination that occurs during the Service Period and within twenty-four (24) months following a Change of Control in connection with which this Award is assumed, continued or substituted, Participant shall immediately vest in the Shares (as determined in accordance with the applicable provisions of Paragraphs 4(a) and 4(b) above) or other consideration payable in connection with such assumption, continuation or substitution issuable under this Award and such Shares or other consideration shall be issued immediately upon such Involuntary Termination or as soon as practicable thereafter, but in no event more than fifteen (15) business days after such Involuntary Termination.

Exhibit 10.1
Appendix A
Organic Performance Goals:The Performance Goals to be achieved under the Award are revenue growth and adjusted income from operations growth for the Company for the period commencing January 1, 2012 and ending December 31, 2012 (the “Performance Period”) compared to the period beginning January 1, 2011 and ending December 31, 2011. For each goal there are three designated levels of attainment – threshold, target and outstanding.
Performance Level | Revenue Growth | Adjusted Income from Operations Growth | ||
Outstanding | 20% | 20% | ||
Target | 17% | 17% | ||
Threshold | 14% | 14% |
• | For such purpose, revenue growth and adjusted income from operations growth shall be calculated without taking into account the effect of any acquisition or restructuring that occurred during the Performance Period. |
• | The Actual Performance Shares to which Participant may become entitled subject to continued employment or service during the Service Period shall be calculated by multiplying the designated number of Target Performance Shares by a performance percentage based on the level of achievement of each Performance Goal as follows (and rounding down to the nearest whole number): |
• | Straight line interpolation will apply to performance levels between the ones illustrated above. |
• | If performance below threshold occurs for either metric, payout on the other metric will also be zero regardless of performance. |
• | The goals will be measured based on Company-wide performance on a consolidated basis. |
