RESTRICTED SHARE UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT
THIS RESTRICTED SHARE UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is dated as of [__________] by and between Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd., a company organized under the laws of Bermuda (the “Company”), and [NAME] (the “Participant”).
W I T N E S S E T H
WHEREAS, pursuant to the Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd. Amended and Restated 2013 Performance Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), the Company has granted to the Participant effective as of the date hereof (the “Award Date”), a credit of restricted share units under the Plan (the “Award”), upon the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Plan.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of services rendered and to be rendered by the Participant, and the mutual promises made herein and the mutual benefits to be derived therefrom, the parties agree as follows:
Upon a termination of the Participant’s employment with the Company by the Company due to Participant’s death or disability, Participant will vest in a pro-rata portion of the target
1
number of Share Units specified in Section 2 (“Target Shares”) that are then outstanding and unvested. The pro-rata portion will be calculated as follows: (Target Shares ÷ number of days from Award Date to original vesting date specified in Annex A (including both beginning and end date)) x number of days from the Award Date to the date of termination due to death or disability. Any partial shares will be rounded down to the nearest whole share. Disability as used in this paragraph shall mean a physical or mental impairment which, as reasonably determined by the Company, renders Participant unable to perform the essential functions of Participant’s employment with the Company, even with a reasonable accommodation that does not impose an undue hardship on the Company, for more than 90 days in any 180-day period, unless a longer period is required by federal, state or local law, in which case that longer period would apply.
Nothing contained in this Agreement or the Plan constitutes an employment or service commitment by the Company, affects the Participant’s status as an employee at will who is subject to termination without cause, confers upon the Participant any right to remain employed by or in service to the Company or any Subsidiary, interferes in any way with the right of the Company or any Subsidiary at any time to terminate such employment or services, or affects the right of the Company or any Subsidiary to increase or decrease the Participant’s other compensation or benefits. Nothing in this Agreement, however, is intended to adversely affect any independent contractual right of the Participant without his or her consent thereto.
