in either case, within twelve (12) months of the date on which any such retention bonus is paid, you will be required, not later than thirty (30) days after the date of such termination, to repay the gross amount of the most recent retention bonus to McAfee. If you do not timely pay such amount, subject to applicable law, McAfee will be permitted to recover such amount by reducing the amount that would otherwise be payable to you under any compensatory plan, program or arrangement maintained by McAfee.
Long-Term Incentive Awards. As a reflection of your future achievements and contributions, we will recommend to the Board of Managers of McAfee’s parent holding company (“Parent”) that you be awarded additional long-term incentive awards consisting of profits interests (Management Incentive Units or (“MIUs”), a form of partnership interest in Parent, and restricted equity units (“RSUs”), which are generally settled upon vesting in Class A common equity units of Parent.
MIU Award. The total value of your MIU award is estimated to be $6,500,000[ ]. In order to vest in your MIU award, you must be continuously employed by a McAfee company from the date of grant to the date of vesting, unless your employment is terminated without “cause” (as customarily defined in the MIU award agreement) within two years following a change in control of McAfee, in which case your time-based vesting awards would accelerate in full.
RSU Award. The total value of your RSU award is estimated to be $3,000,000, based upon the fair market value of Parent’s Class A common equity units at the time of grant. [ ]. Your RSU award is not subject to performance-based vesting conditions. In order to vest in your RSU award, you must be continuously employed by a McAfee company from the date of grant to the date of vesting, unless your employment is terminated without Cause (as defined below), in which case McAfee will pay you a cash amount equal to the fair market value upon termination of service of any unvested RSUs subject to the RSU award (with such unvested RSUs forfeited upon termination of service). For the avoidance of doubt, the vesting terms applicable to the RSU award described in this promotional offer letter are unique to this one-time RSU award, and are not applicable to any other RSU award that you have or may receive.
Award Agreements. The description of your MIU and RSU awards contained in this letter is a high- level summary only and necessarily incomplete. The definitive terms of your MIU and RSU awards will be set forth in award agreements that will govern your awards, and in the event of any conflict between this description and that document, the award agreements (and the documents they reference) will control. Of course, we cannot guarantee that you will receive the full value of your awards, nor achievement by the company of our long-range plan exit equity value.
Equity Sale Opportunity. In addition, you will have the unique opportunity during each of the next three (3) years to elect to sell back to Parent up to $1,000,000 in Parent’s Class A common equity units (whether you acquired the Class A common equity units via subscription or settlement upon vesting of an RSU award). Should you wish to exercise this sale right, you must email McAfee’s General Counsel not later than thirty (30) days following June 1st of each of 2019, 2020 and 2021, and specify the value of Parent’s Class A common equity units that you wish to sell. You may sell an amount not to exceed $1,000,000 per year; provided, that, if you elect to sell an amount less than $1,000,000 in 2019 or 2020, the difference between the maximum eligible sales amount and the amount sold will carry forward to the following year, with the aggregate amount sold over such three-year period not to exceed $3,000,000. The fair market value of Parent’s Class A common equity units on the date you deliver the email notice will determine the number of units subject to the repurchase transaction. Upon receipt of any such notice, Parent will promptly deliver to you a customary unit repurchase agreement setting forth the terms and conditions of the repurchase event. The parties will consummate the unit repurchase as soon as reasonably practicable in accordance with applicable securities laws and, to the extent applicable, publicly-traded partnership tax safe harbors. In order to avail yourself of each right of sale, you must remain continuously employed with a McAfee company through the date you deliver any notice of unit sale.
