PERFORMANCE STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT
PURSUANT TO THE
TECHNIPFMC PLC INCENTIVE AWARD PLAN
This Performance Stock Unit Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made as of the [GRANT DATE] (the “Grant Date”) by TechnipFMC plc, a public limited company incorporated under the laws of England and Wales (the “Company”), and [NAME] (the “Participant”).
The TechnipFMC plc Incentive Award Plan (the “Plan”), as it may be amended or restated from time to time, is incorporated by reference and made a part of this Agreement and will control the rights and obligations of the Company and the Participant under this Agreement. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all capitalized terms have the meanings provided in the Plan. To the extent there is a conflict between the Plan and this Agreement, the provisions of the Plan will prevail.
The provisions of this Agreement are replaced, superseded and/or supplemented, as applicable, by the provisions of the Country Schedules applicable to the Participant as set forth in Schedule A.
The Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Committee”) determined that it would be to the competitive advantage and interest of the Company and its stockholders to grant an award of restricted stock units to the Participant, the amount of which will vary based on the Company’s performance, as an inducement to remain in the service of the Company or one of its affiliates (collectively, the “Employer”).
The Committee, on behalf of the Company, grants to the Participant an award of [# of Shares Granted] performance-based restricted stock units (the “PSUs”) of the Company’s ordinary shares (the “Shares”), which reflects the number of Shares to be delivered based on achievement of Target Performance as set forth on Exhibit A (the “Target PSUs”). The actual number of Shares earned by the Participant will depend upon the satisfaction of the performance goals and in the amounts set forth on Exhibit A hereto (the “Performance Goals”) over the performance period set forth therein (the “Performance Period”). The number of PSUs earned by the Participant will be determined at a meeting of the Committee following the completion of the Performance Period, at which time the Committee will review and approve the Company’s calculation of the Company’s performance against the Performance Goals. The total number of Shares to be delivered will vary between 0% and 200% of the Target PSUs depending on the Company’s achievement against the Performance Goals. The number of Shares earned based on satisfaction of the Performance Goals being the “Earned PSUs.” No PSUs will be considered Earned PSUs unless and until the Compensation Committee certifies achievement against the Performance Goals. The date the Compensation Committee certifies achievement of such goals is the “Certification Date”.
The award is made upon the following terms and conditions:
1.Vesting and Settlement.

(a)The PSUs will vest three years following the grant date and after the conclusion of the Performance Period (the “Vesting Date”), subject to Participant’s continued employment, appointment or service through the Vesting Date. All PSUs will be forfeited upon Participant’s Termination of Service before the Vesting Date other than as provided in Sections 2 or 3 below. Prior to the Vesting Date, an Award remains subject to substantial risk of forfeiture.

(b)Shares equal to the vested and Earned PSUs will be delivered to the Participant on the third business day following the later of the Certification Date or the Vesting Date (the “Settlement





Date”); provided, however, that the Settlement Date shall in no event be later than the date that is two and one-half months following the last day of the Performance Period (for the avoidance of doubt, this deadline is intended to comply with the “short-term deferral” exception from Section 409A of the Code).

(c)For the avoidance of doubt, a Participant will retain the right to the Earned PSUs if the Participant’s employment is terminated following the Vesting Date but before the Certification Date. However, if the Participant’s employment is terminated prior to the Vesting Date, but after the Certification Date, the Earned PSUs will be forfeited unless otherwise provided in Sections 2 or 3 below.

2.Death, Disability or Retirement.

(a)Notwithstanding Section 1 hereof, in the event of the Participant’s death or Disability (as defined below) prior to the Vesting Date, the Participant will vest and receive 100% of the Shares as soon as practicable following the Settlement Date.

(b)Notwithstanding Section 1 hereof, in the event of the Participant’s Retirement (as defined below) prior to the Vesting Date, the Participant will retain the right to receive any Earned PSUs on the Settlement Date.

3.Change in Control. Notwithstanding anything in the agreement to the contrary, upon a Change in Control the “Earned PSUs” will equal the Target PSUs and, where the surviving corporation or any parent corporation thereof:

(a)assumes or continues the Award, such Earned PSUs shall continue to be subject to vesting and forfeiture as provided in Sections 1 and 2, payable on the Vesting Date; provided, however, in the event of the Participant’s Termination of Service prior to the Vesting Date without Cause or for Good Reason (as defined below) within twenty-four (24) months following the consummation of a Change in Control (the “Protection Period”), such Earned PSUs shall be payable upon the date of Participant’s Termination of Service.

(b)Upon receipt of the Shares, the Participant agrees to comply with any and all of the Company’s policies and procedures related to trading in the Company’s Shares, including, but not limited to, the Company’s Code of Business Conduct and the Insider Trading Policy.

5.No Limitation on Rights of the Company.

6.Employment. Nothing in this Agreement or in the Plan will be construed as constituting a commitment, guarantee, agreement or understanding of any kind or nature that the Employer will continue to employ, work with or appoint the Participant, or as affecting in any way the right of the Employer to terminate the employment, service or appointment of the Participant at any time.

19.Definitions.

Unless otherwise provided on Schedule A, the Country Schedule:
(a)Cause” means

(i)the Participant’s willful and continued failure to substantially perform the Participant’s employment duties in any material respect (other than any such failure resulting from Disability), after a written demand for substantial performance is delivered to the Participant that specifically identifies the manner in which the Company believes the Participant has failed to perform the Participant’s duties, and after the Participant has failed to resume substantial performance of the Participant’s duties on a continuous basis within thirty (30) calendar days of receiving such demand;

(ii)the Participant’s willfully engaging in other conduct which is demonstrably and materially injurious to the Company or an affiliate; or

(iii)the Participant’s having been convicted of, or pleading guilty or nolo contendere to, a felony under federal or state law.

(b)Disability” means Participant’s inability to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in death or that can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than twelve (12) months.

(c)Good Reason” means, without the Participant’s express written consent, the occurrence of any one or more of the following during the Protection Period:

(i)the assignment of the Participant to duties materially inconsistent with the Participant’s authorities, duties, responsibilities, and status (including, without limitation, offices, titles and reporting requirements) as an employee of the Company (including, without limitation, any material adverse change in duties or status as a result of the stock of the Company ceasing to be publicly traded or of the Company becoming a subsidiary of another entity, or any material adverse change in the Participant’s reporting relationship, such as the chairman or chief executive officer ceasing to report to the Board of Directors of a publicly traded company), or a reduction or alteration in the nature or status of the Participant’s authorities, duties, or responsibilities from the greatest of those in effect (x) on the Grant Date, (y) during the fiscal year immediately preceding the year of the Change in Control, and (z) on the date immediately preceding the Change in Control;

(ii)the Company’s requiring the Participant to be based at a location which is at least one hundred (100) miles further from the Participant’s then current primary residence than is such residence from the office where the Participant is located at the time of the Change in Control, except for required travel on the Company’s business to an extent substantially consistent with the Participant’s business obligations as of the Grant Date or as the same may be changed from time to time prior to a Change in Control;

(iii)a material reduction by the Company in the Participant’s then current salary of record paid as annual salary (excluding amounts received under incentive or other bonus plans), as in effect on the Grant Date or as the same may be increased during the Protection Period;






(iv)a material reduction in the Participant’s level of participation in any of the Company’s short- and/or long-term incentive compensation plans, or employee benefit or retirement plans, policies, practices, or arrangements in which the Participant participates from the greatest of the levels in place (x) on the Grant Date, (y) during the fiscal year immediately preceding the year of the Change in Control and (z) on the date immediately preceding the Change in Control; or

(v)any termination of Participant’s employment by the Company that is not effected pursuant to a written notice of termination which sets forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of the Participant’s employment.

The existence of Good Reason will not be affected by the Participant’s temporary incapacity due to physical or mental illness not constituting a Disability. The Participant’s continued employment will not constitute a waiver of the Participant’s rights with respect to any circumstance constituting Good Reason; however, “Good Reason” for Participant’s separation from employment will exist only if: the Participant provides written notice to the Company within ninety (90) days of the occurrence of any of the above listed events; the Company fails to cure the event within thirty (30) days following the Company’s receipt of Participant’s written notice; and the Participant separates from employment with the Company effective not later than twenty four (24) months after the original occurrence of the “Good Reason” event. For sake of clarity, the event giving rise to a Good Reason termination must occur during the Protection Period, but Participant’s actual termination of employment for Good Reason may occur after the end of the Protection Period, and such termination will be treated as if it occurred during the Protection Period for purposes of Section 3.
(d)Retirement” means [termination of the Participant’s employment on or after the date that the Participant reaches the age of 62] [termination of the Participant’s employment (i) on or after the date that the Participant reaches the age of 62, or (ii) by the Company without Cause, regardless of the Participant’s age.]

Participant undertakes that, upon request by the Company, he/she will (on or within 14 days of acquiring the Shares) join with his/her Employer in electing, pursuant to Section 431(1) of the Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003 (“ITEPA”) that, for relevant tax purposes, the market value of the Shares acquired on vesting of the PSUs on any occasion will be calculated as if the Shares were not restricted and Sections 425 to 430 (inclusive) of ITEPA are not to apply to such Shares.

4.Loan. Participant agrees that if Participant does not pay or his/her Employer or the Company does not withhold from Participant the full amount of any Tax Liability within 90 days after the end of the tax year in which the Taxable Event occurred, or such other period specified in Section 222(1)(c) of ITPEA, then the amount that should have been withheld shall constitute a loan owed by Participant to the Employer, effective 90 days after the end of the tax year in which the Taxable Event occurred. Participant agrees that the loan will bear interest at the HMRC’s official rate and will be immediately due and repayable by Participant, and the Company and/or the Employer may recover it at any time thereafter by: (i) withholding the funds from salary, bonus or any other funds due to Participant by the Employer; (ii) withholding in Shares issued upon vesting of the PSUs or from the cash proceeds from the sale of Shares; or (iii) demanding cash or a cheque from Participant. Participant also authorizes the Company to delay the issuance of any Shares to Participant unless and until the loan is repaid in full.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Participant is an officer or executive director (as within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), the terms of the immediately foregoing provision will not apply. In the event that Participant is an officer or executive





director and the Tax Liability is not collected from or paid by Participant within 90 days of the end of the tax year in which the Taxable Event occurred, the amount of any uncollected Tax Liability may constitute a benefit to Participant on which additional income tax and national insurance contributions may be payable. Participant acknowledges that the Company or the Employer may recover any such additional income tax and national insurance contributions at any time thereafter.
5.Acknowledgement. Participant acknowledges that neither this UK Agreement nor the Plan has been issued, nor has it been approved by, an authorised person within the meaning of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 of the United Kingdom and is being directed at the Participant because the offer to which this UK Agreement and the Plan relate has been determined as having regard to the Participant’s circumstances as an Employee of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries.

6.For the purposes of this Agreement and the Plan, the following defined term applies:

a.“Retirement” means the termination of the Participant’s employment at the age when he or she becomes eligible to receive a state pension in the UK [or by the Company without Cause, regardless of the Participant's age].
