Ingredion Incorporated (the “Company”) has granted you a Non-Qualified Stock Option (the “Option”) under the Ingredion Incorporated Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”).  The Option grant date, the shares of Company Common Stock (“Shares”) covered by the Option, and the Option exercise price are set forth in the document you have received entitled “Notice of Grant of Stock Option”.  The Notice of Grant of Stock Option and this Stock Option Award Agreement (“Award Agreement”) collectively constitute the Agreement evidencing the Option.  This Award Agreement and the Plan together govern your rights under the Award and the Plan and set forth all of the conditions and limitations affecting such rights.

 

Capitalized terms used in this Award Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Plan or in this Award Agreement. If there is any inconsistency between the terms of this Award Agreement and the terms of the Plan, except as otherwise provided in the Plan, the Plan’s terms shall supersede and replace the conflicting terms of this Award Agreement.

 

Overview of Your Grant

 

1.              Grant Date.              , 20  .

 

2.              Vesting Period: The Option does not provide you with any rights or interests therein until it vests in accordance with the following:

 

The Option becomes exercisable in three equal installments on the first three anniversaries of the date of grant (one-third of the Option will vest on             , 20  , one-third will vest on             , 20  , and the final one-third will vest on             , 20  ). The Option shall remain exercisable until             , 20  .  However, the Option may expire prior to such date if your employment with the Company terminates prior to exercising such Option, as stated in Section 4 of this Award Agreement.

 

[Notwithstanding the effect that Section 5.8(a)(1) of the Plan would otherwise have, unless otherwise determined by the Committee, in the event of a Change in Control pursuant to Section 5.8(b)(3) or (4) of the Plan  in connection with which the holders of Common Stock receive shares of common stock that are registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act (and, for the avoidance of doubt, not in the event of a Change in Control to which Section 5.8(a)(2) of the Plan applies), the Option shall become immediately exercisable in full as a result of such Change in Control only in the event you also terminate employment with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or affiliates for Good Reason, or if your employment is terminated by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or affiliates without Cause, within two years following such Change in Control (the “Protection Period”).  In the event of such Change in Control pursuant to Section 5.8(b)(3) or (4) of the Plan in connection with which the holders of Common Stock receive shares of common stock that are registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act, there shall be substituted for each share of Common Stock available under the Option (if still outstanding) the number, type and class of shares into which each outstanding share of Common Stock shall be converted pursuant to such Change in Control.  In the event of any such substitution, the purchase price per share in the case of the Option shall be appropriately adjusted by the Committee (whose determination shall be final, binding and conclusive), such adjustments to be made in the case of the Option without an increase in the aggregate purchase price or base price. For purposes of the foregoing, “Good Reason” shall mean:

 



 

(i)      There has occurred a material reduction by the Company, a Subsidiary or affiliate in your base salary in effect immediately before the beginning of the Protection Period or as increased from time to time thereafter;

 

(ii)     The Company, a Subsidiary or affiliate, without your written consent, has required you to be relocated anywhere in excess of thirty-five (35) miles from your office location immediately before the beginning of the Protection Period, except for required travel on the business of the Company, a Subsidiary or affiliate to an extent substantially consistent with your business travel obligations immediately before the beginning of the Protection Period; or

 

(iii)    The Company or a Subsidiary has reduced in any manner which you reasonably consider important your title, job authorities or responsibilities immediately before the beginning of the Protection Period.

 

You may exercise your right to terminate your employment for Good Reason by giving the Company a written notice of termination specifying in reasonable detail the circumstances constituting such Good Reason. However, the Company shall have thirty (30) days to “cure” such that the circumstances constituting such Good Reason are eliminated.  Your employment shall terminate at the end of such thirty (30)-day period only if the Company has failed to cure such circumstances constituting the Good Reason.

 

Your termination of employment within a Protection Period shall be for Good Reason if one of the occurrences specified in this Section 2 shall have occurred (and subject to the cure provision of the immediately preceding paragraph), notwithstanding that you may have other reasons for terminating employment, including employment by another employer which you  desire to accept.] [Portion of this Section in brackets used for members of the Executive Leadership Team.]

1.             Income Tax and Social Insurance Contribution Withholding.  The following provision supplements Section 5 of the Award Agreement:

 

If payment or withholding of the income tax due in connection with the Option is not made within ninety (90) days after the end of the U.K. tax year in which the event giving rise to the income tax liability occurs or such other period specified in Section 222(1)(c) of the U.K. Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003 (the “Due Date”), the amount of any uncollected income tax paid by the Employer shall constitute a loan owed by you to the Employer, effective as of the Due Date.  You agree that the loan will bear interest at the then-current official rate of Her Majesty’s Revenue & Customs (“HMRC”), it shall be immediately due and repayable, and the Company or the Employer may recover it at any time thereafter by any of the means referred to in Section 5 of the Award Agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if you are a director or executive officer of the Company (within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), you shall not be eligible for a loan from the Company or the Employer to cover the income tax liability.  In the event that you are a director or executive officer of the Company and the income tax is not collected from or paid by you by the Due Date, the payment of any uncollected income tax and employee national insurance contributions (“NICs”) by the Employer may constitute a benefit to you (the “Tax Benefit”) on which additional income tax and NICs will be payable.  If you are a director or executive officer of the Company, you will be responsible for paying and reporting any income tax due on the Tax Benefit directly to HMRC under the self-assessment regime, and the Employer will hold you liable for the Tax Benefit and the cost of any employee NICs due on the Tax Benefit that the Company or the Employer was obligated to pay and paid.  The Company or the Employer (as applicable) may recover the Tax Benefit and the cost of any such employee NICs from you at any time by any of the means referred to in Section 5 of the Award Agreement.

 

2.             Exclusion of Claim. You acknowledge and agree that you will have no entitlement to compensation or damages insofar as such entitlement arises or may arise from your ceasing to have rights under or to be entitled to exercise the Option, whether or not as a result of the termination of your employment with the Company or its Subsidiaries or affiliates for any reason whatsoever (whether the termination is in breach of contract or otherwise), or from the loss or diminution in value of the Option.  Upon the grant of the Option, you shall be deemed irrevocably to have waived any such entitlement.
