DEFERRED COMPENSATION RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT
Vesting | These restricted stock units have been issued under the Plan pursuant to your deferral election under The Charles Schwab Corporation Directors’ Deferred Compensation Plan II (the “Deferred Compensation Plan”) and are fully vested and non-forfeitable at all times. | |
Nature of Units | Your units are mere bookkeeping entries. They represent only Schwab’s unfunded and unsecured promise to issue shares of Schwab Common Stock on a future date. As a holder of units, you have no rights other than the rights of a general creditor of Schwab. | |
Voting Rights and Dividend Rights | Your units carry no voting rights. Any dividends paid on shares of Schwab Common Stock shall be credited to you as additional Restricted Stock Units. Otherwise, you have no rights as a Schwab stockholder until your units are settled by issuing shares of Schwab Common Stock. | |
Settlement of Units | Your units will be settled in accordance with the terms of the Deferred Compensation Plan. At the time of settlement, you will receive one share of Schwab’s Common Stock for each unit. | |
Other Terms and Conditions | Your units will be governed by all of the applicable terms and conditions of the Deferred Compensation Plan, which are made part of this Agreement. | |
Restrictions on Restricted Stock Units | You may not sell, transfer, pledge or otherwise dispose of any Restricted Stock Units. Schwab will deliver Shares to you in accordance with the terms of the Deferred Compensation Plan.
Schwab may, in its sole discretion, allow you to transfer these Restricted Stock Units under a domestic relations order in settlement of marital or domestic property rights.
In order to transfer these Restricted Stock Units, you and the transferee(s) must execute the forms prescribed by Schwab, which include the consent of the transferee(s) to be bound by this Agreement. | |

Death | beneficiaries. You may designate one or more beneficiaries by filing a beneficiary designation form. You may change your beneficiary designation by filing a new form with Schwab at any time prior to your death. If you do not designate a beneficiary or if your designated beneficiary predeceases you, then your Shares will be delivered to your estate. | |
Restrictions on Resale | You agree not to sell any shares at a time when applicable laws, Schwab policies or an agreement between Schwab and its underwriters prohibit a sale. This restriction will apply as long as your service continues and for such period of time after the termination of your service as Schwab may specify. | |
Adjustments | In the event of a stock split, a stock dividend or a similar change in Schwab stock, the number of your units will be adjusted accordingly, as Schwab may determine pursuant to the Plan. | |
The Plan and Other Agreements | The text of the Plan and the Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Plans”) are incorporated in this Agreement by reference. This Agreement and the Plans constitute the entire understanding between you and Schwab regarding these units. Any prior agreements, commitments or negotiations concerning these units are superseded. This Agreement may be amended only by another written agreement, signed by both parties. If there is any inconsistency or conflict between any provision of this Agreement and the Plans, the terms of the Plans will control. |
BY ACCEPTING THIS GRANT,
YOU AGREE TO ALL OF THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS
DESCRIBED ABOVE AND IN THE PLANS.
