3. | Subject to Article 3.4, in case a Participant is no longer employed by any Employing Company as a result of the termination of such Participant’s employment with an Employing Company for reasons of: |
| (iii) | the expiration of any temporary contract of employment, |
such Participant shall remain entitled to any Restricted Share Rights granted to such Participant nine (9) months or more prior to the date of such termination subject to the terms and conditions of this Plan.
For the purpose of this Plan, unless Philips determines, in its sole discretion, otherwise in writing to the Participant in question, a Participant’s employment shall be deemed terminated as a result of “retirement” if such Participant’s employment is terminated and such Participant satisfies at the date of such termination the eligibility requirements to receive an immediate (early) retirement benefit under an (early) retirement plan of an Employing Company under which such Participant was covered, provided that payment of such (early) retirement benefit commences immediately following such termination.
4. | In case – in the reasonable opinion of Philips – a Participant |
| a. | Breaches thenon-competition obligations; or; |
| b. | Within one year from the date of termination, directly or indirectly on his own behalf or in the service or on behalf of others, solicits or attempts to solicit, divert or hire away any person employed by Philips or any Employing Company or any customer of Philips or any Employing Company; or |
| c. | Disparages the Employing Company or the Employing Company’s officers, directors or employees, in any manner likely to be harmful to any of them or their business, business reputation or personal reputation; provided that the Participant may respond fully and accurately to any questions, inquiry or request for information when required by legal process. |
The Supervisory Board has the discretion to decide that the Restricted Share Rights still outstanding will – in whole or in part – be forfeited with immediate effect, without the Participant being entitled to any compensation or any obligation on the part of Philips or any Employing Company.
Article 4
Non-transferability
The Restricted Share Rights are strictly personal and may not be assigned, transferred (except that, in case of death of the Participant any Restricted Share Rights granted to such Participant at the date of his death shall pass to his heirs or legatees), pledged, hypothecated, or otherwise encumbered or disposed of in any manner. The Participant may not engage in any transactions on any exchange or otherwise on the basis of any Restricted Share Rights, such as hedging his Restricted Share Rights exposure on the basis of any Restricted Shares Rights. Any violation of the terms of this Article 4 will cause the Restricted Share Rights to become immediately null and void without further notice and without the Participant being entitled to any compensation.
