AWARD CERTIFICATE TERMS AND CONDITIONS
1. Grant of Award. ScanSource, Inc. (the “Company”) hereby grants to the Participant named on Page 1 hereof (the “Participant”), subject to the restrictions and the other terms and conditions set forth in the ScanSource, Inc. 2021 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan, as it may be amended and/or restated (the “Plan”), and in this Award Certificate, a performance- and service-based Restricted Stock Unit Award (the “Award”) for up to the number of Shares indicated on Schedule A, which is attached hereto and expressly made a part of this Award Certificate. For the purposes herein, the Shares subject to the Award are units that will be reflected in a book account maintained by the Company and that will be settled in Shares if and only to the extent permitted under the Plan and this Award Certificate. Prior to issuance of any Shares upon vesting and payment of the Award, the Award shall represent an unsecured obligation of the Company, payable (if at all) only from the Company’s general assets. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Plan.
2. Vesting and Earning of the Award. The number of Shares subject to the Award that may be earned during the Performance Cycle will be determined by the Committee following the end of the Performance Cycle, as provided in Schedule A; provided, however, that (except as otherwise provided in Section 3 or Section 4 below), the Award shall not vest, in whole or in part, and the Participant shall not be entitled to any of the Shares (that is, Shares subject to the Award shall remain subject to forfeiture), unless the Participant remains continuously employed by the Company from the Award Date until June 30, 20__. The Committee has sole discretion to determine if and the extent to which the Award has become earned and vested. One Share of Stock will be issuable for each RSU that is earned and vests. RSUs that have been earned and become vested are referred to herein as “Vested RSUs.” RSUs that have not become earned and vested and remain subject to forfeiture are referred to herein as “Unvested RSUs.” The Unvested RSUs and Vested RSUs are collectively referred to herein as the “RSUs.” The Award will terminate and the Unvested RSUs will be subject to forfeiture upon termination of the Participant’s employment as set forth in Section 3.
3. Effect of Termination; Forfeiture.
(a) If the Participant’s employment with the Company terminates for any reason prior to June 30, 20__ other than as set forth in Section 3(b) or Section 4 below, then the Participant shall forfeit all of the Participant’s right, title and interest in the Award (and the underlying Shares), to the extent not vested and earned as of the date of the Participant’s termination of employment, and such Unvested RSUs shall revert to the Company (without the payment by the Company of any consideration for such Shares) immediately following the event of forfeiture.
(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2, Schedule A and Section 3(a) herein, the Award shall be deemed earned and vested on the earliest to occur of the following:
(i) Upon the termination of the Participant’s employment due to death or Disability prior to June 30, 20__, (A) the Award shall be deemed earned as if the goal(s) for the Performance Cycle had been met at target and the earned RSUs will vest as of the termination of the Participant’s employment with the Company due to death or Disability, if the termination of the Participant’s employment occurs prior to completion of the Performance Cycle, or (B) the Award shall vest, with respect to the previously-earned RSUs, as of the termination of the Participant’s employment with the Company due to death or Disability, if the termination of the Participant’s employment occurs after completion of the Performance Cycle.
