This GLOBAL PERFORMANCE SHARE UNIT AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made as of the __ day of ______, 20__ between YUM! BRANDS, INC., a North Carolina corporation (“YUM!) and [NAME] (“Participant”).
1. Award.
(a) Performance Share Units. Pursuant to the YUM! Brands, Inc. Long Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), Participant is hereby awarded a Full Value Award in the form of performance share units with respect to the number of shares of Stock as set forth herein (the “Performance Share Units”), subject to the conditions of the Plan and this Agreement. The number of Performance Share Units to which Participant may become entitled under this Award at the target level of performance (the “Target Performance Share Units”) is set forth above.
(b) Plan Incorporated. Participant acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Summary Plan Description, and agrees that this award of Performance Share Units shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and the Summary Plan Description, including future amendments thereto, if any, which Plan and Summary Plan Description are incorporated herein by reference as a part of this Agreement. Participant may make a written request for a copy of the Plan at any time. Except as defined herein, capitalized terms shall have the same meanings ascribed to them under the Plan.
(c) Certain Defined Terms. Without limiting the generality of the provisions of subsection 1(b), for purposes of this Agreement the following capitalized terms shall have the following meaning specified:
(i) “Code Section 409A” means Section 409A of the Code and all regulations, guidance and other interpretive authority issued thereunder.
(ii) “Company” means, collectively, YUM!, its divisions and its Subsidiaries.
(iii) “Projected Level of Performance” means, for a Performance Period, the level of performance, determined in the discretion of the Committee, that would have been achieved if the level of performance for the Performance Period through

Participant’s Termination Date had continued for the remainder of the applicable Performance Period.
(iv) “Retirement” shall mean termination of employment by Participant on or after Participant’s attainment of age 55 and 10 years of service or age 65 and 5 years of service (and not for any other reason).
(v) “Termination Date” means the date on which Participant ceases to be an employee of the Company and ceases to perform material services for the Company, regardless of the reason for the cessation; provided, however, that a Participant’s “Termination Date” shall not be considered to have occurred during the period in which the reason for the cessation of services is a leave of absence approved by the Company which was the recipient of Participant’s services. Notwithstanding the foregoing and for the avoidance of doubt, in the event of a Change in Control, if Participant becomes employed by the successor to YUM! or an affiliate of such successor, Participant’s Termination Date shall not occur until Participant both ceases to be an employee and ceases to perform material services for the successor and its affiliates on or after the Change in Control. In the case of any amounts subject to Code Section 409A, Participant’s Termination Date shall be the date on which Participant has a “separation from service” with the Company within the meaning of Code Section 409A.
(vi) “Vested Units” means the number of Performance Share Units to which Participant is entitled hereunder as determined by the Committee based on satisfaction of the Performance Target and satisfaction of the applicable service requirements or as otherwise determined in accordance with this Agreement.
2. Terms of Performance Share Units. Participant hereby accepts the Performance Share Units and agrees with respect thereto as follow:
(a) Assignment of Performance Share Units Prohibited. The Performance Share Units may not be sold, assigned, pledged, exchanged, hypothecated or otherwise transferred, encumbered or disposed of, except by will or the applicable laws of inheritance.
(b) Vesting Generally. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan:
(i) Participant shall have no right to any Performance Share Units subject to this Award (and shall not be vested in such Performance Share Units) until the Committee determines whether and to what extent the performance conditions have been satisfied (as set forth in this Agreement, including paragraph 2(b)(ii) and Exhibit A hereof) and then only if Participant’s Termination Date has not occurred as of the last day of the Performance Period.
(ii) The number of Performance Share Units to which Participant will be entitled under this Agreement (and that shall become Vested Units hereunder) shall be based on level of performance of the Performance Target as determined in accordance with Exhibit A hereto. As soon as practicable following the end of the Performance Period, the Committee shall determine whether and the extent to which the Performance
2

Target has been satisfied and the number of the Target Performance Share Units to which Participant will be entitled under this Award in accordance with the provisions of Exhibit A hereto.
(c) Termination of Service. In the event that Participant’s Termination Date occurs prior to the last day of the Performance Period for death or Retirement, then the number of Performance Share Units to which Participant will be entitled under this Agreement (and that shall become Vested Units) will be that number of Performance Share Units that would have become Vested Units had the Termination Date not occurred (and based on actual performance for the Performance Period), pro-rated on a monthly basis for the portion of the Performance Period ending on the Termination Date. In the event that Participant’s Termination Date occurs prior to the last day of the Performance Period for any reason other than death or Retirement, Participant shall, for no consideration, forfeit all Performance Share Units on the Termination Date.
(d) Change in Control. If a Change in Control occurs prior to the last day of the Performance Period and prior to Participant’s Termination Date and if Participant’s Termination Date occurs by reason of involuntary termination by the Company (other than for cause) on or within two years following the Change in Control and prior to the last day of the Performance Period, then:
(i) for the Performance Period that begins in the year in which the Termination Date occurs, Participant shall become vested in all then outstanding Target Performance Share Units to which Participant would have been entitled for the Performance Period if the target level of performance was achieved for such Performance Period, reduced on a pro rata basis to reflect the portion of the Performance Period remaining following the Termination Date; and
(ii) for any Performance Period that began before the year in which the Termination Date occurs, Participant shall become vested in all then outstanding Target Performance Share Units to which Participant would have been entitled for the applicable Performance Period if the performance achieved for the applicable Performance Period was the greater of (A) the target level of performance or (B) the Projected Level of Performance, reduced on a pro rata basis to reflect the portion of the applicable Performance Period remaining following the Termination Date.
(e) Dividend Equivalent Units. This Award contains the right to receive additional share units (“Dividend Equivalent Units”) in respect of dividends paid with respect to shares of Stock during the Performance Period in accordance with the following:
(i) If a dividend with respect to shares of Stock is payable in shares of Stock, then, as of the applicable dividend payment date, Participant shall be credited with that number of Dividend Equivalent Units equal to (A) the number of shares of Stock distributed in the dividend with respect to a share of Stock, multiplied by (B) the number of Performance Share Units outstanding on the dividend record date.
3

(ii) If a dividend with respect to shares of Stock is payable in cash, then, as of the applicable dividend payment date, Participant shall be credited with that number of Dividend Equivalent Units equal to (A) the cash dividend payable with respect to a share of Stock divided by the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the applicable dividend payment date, multiplied by (B) the number of Performance Share Units outstanding on the dividend record date.
The Dividend Equivalent Units credited to Participant shall be subject to the same vesting and performance conditions as the Performance Share Units and shall be settled in accordance with Section 3.
(f) No Rights as Stockholder. Participant shall not be a shareholder of record and therefore shall have no voting, dividend or other shareholder rights prior to the issuance of shares of Stock to Participant in accordance with this Agreement.
3. Form and Timing of Payment and Settlement of Award.
(a) Settlement and Delivery of Stock Generally. Payment and settlement of Vested Units and any related Dividend Equivalent Units shall be made as soon as administratively practicable after the applicable the last day of the Performance Period but in no event later than 2-1/2 months following the last day of the Performance Period (the date on which such payment and settlement is made, the “Settlement Date”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of any Target Performance Share Units that become Vested Units pursuant to subsection 2(d) (relating to Change in Control), the “Settlement Date” shall be the Termination Date and payment shall be made within thirty (30) days following the Settlement Date. Settlement will be made by payment in shares of Stock. Upon the settlement and payment of the Award, the Award shall be cancelled. Notwithstanding the foregoing, YUM! shall not be obligated to deliver any shares of Stock if counsel to YUM! determines that such sale or delivery would violate any applicable law or any rule or regulation of any governmental authority or any rule or regulation of, or agreement of YUM! with, any securities exchange or association upon which the Stock is listed or quoted. YUM! shall in no event be obligated to take any affirmative action in order to cause the delivery of shares of Stock to comply with any such law, rule, regulation or agreement.
(b) Non-U.S. Restrictions and Requirements. Participant understands that the laws of the country in which he/she is working at the time of grant or vesting of the Performance Share Units (and related Dividend Equivalent Units) or at the subsequent sale of Stock granted to Participant under this Award (including any rules or regulations governing securities, foreign exchange, tax, labor or other matters) may subject Participant to additional procedural or regulatory requirements he/she is solely responsible for and will have to independently fulfill in relation to ownership or sale of such Stock.
4. Withholding of Tax.
(a) Liability for Tax. Participant acknowledges that regardless of any action taken by YUM! or if different, Participant’s employer (the “Employer”), the ultimate liability for all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or other tax-related items arising out of Participant’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to
4

Participant (“Tax-Related Items”), is and remains Participant’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by YUM! and/or the Employer. Participant further acknowledges that YUM! and/or the Employer (i) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Performance Share Units (and related Dividend Equivalent Units), including but not limited to, the grant, vesting or settlement of the Performance Share Units (and related Dividend Equivalent Units), the subsequent sale of Stock acquired under the Plan pursuant to such settlement and the receipt of any dividends or Dividend Equivalent Units; and (ii) do not commit and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the grant or any aspect of the Performance Share Units (and related Dividend Equivalent Units) to reduce or eliminate Participant’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Furthermore, if Participant is or becomes subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction between the Grant Date and the date of any relevant taxable event or tax withholding event, as applicable, Participant acknowledges that YUM! and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.
(b) Adequate Arrangements. Prior to any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, Participant shall pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to YUM! and/or the Employer to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, Participant authorizes YUM! and/or the Employer, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy the obligations with respect to Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following (1) withholding from Participant’s wages or other cash compensation paid to Participant by YUM!, the Employer, or any Subsidiary of YUM!; or (2) withholding from the proceeds of the sale of shares of Stock acquired upon settlement of the Performance Share Units (and related Dividend Equivalent Units) either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by YUM! (on Participant’s behalf pursuant to this authorization); or (3) withholding in Stock to be issued upon settlement of the Performance Share Units (and related Dividend Equivalent Units).
(c) Withholding Rates. Depending on the withholding method, YUM! or the Employer may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding rates or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum applicable rates, in which case Participant will receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash and will have no entitlement to the Stock equivalent. If the obligation for the Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in Stock, for tax purposes, Participant is deemed to have been issued the full number of shares of Stock subject to the vested Performance Share Units (and related Dividend Equivalent Units), notwithstanding that a number of shares of Stock are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items.
(d) Participant Responsibility. Participant shall pay to YUM! or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that YUM! or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for as a result of Participant’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described in this Section 4. YUM! may refuse to issue or deliver the Stock or the proceeds from the sale of Stock, if Participant fails to comply with his or her obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.
5. Nature of Award. In accepting the Performance Share Units, Participant acknowledges, understands and agrees that:
5

(a) Voluntary Plan. The Plan is established voluntarily by YUM!, it is discretionary in nature and may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by YUM! at any time, to the extent permitted by the Plan.
(b) No Contractual Right. This Award of Performance Share Units is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of Performance Share Units, or benefits in lieu of Performance Share Units, even if Performance Share Units have been granted in the past.
(c) Not Part of Normal or Expected Compensation. The Performance Share Units and any shares acquired under the Plan are not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purpose.
(d) Foreign Exchange Rates. Participant acknowledges and agrees that neither YUM!, the Employer nor any Subsidiary shall be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between his or her local currency and the United States Dollar that may affect the value of the Performance Share Units (and related Dividend Equivalent Units) or of any amounts due to Participant pursuant to the settlement of the Performance Share Units (and related Dividend Equivalent Units) or the subsequent sale of any shares of Stock acquired upon settlement.
(e) Future Grants Discretionary. All decisions with respect to future grants of Performance Share Units or other Awards, if any, will be at the sole discretion of YUM!.
(f) Voluntary Participation. Participant’s participation in the Plan is voluntary.
(g) No Replacement for any Compensation. This Award of Performance Share Units and any Stock acquired under the Plan are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation.
(h) Unpredictable Future Value. The future value of the Stock underlying the Performance Share Units is unknown, indeterminable and cannot be predicted with certainty.
(i) No Damages or Claims. No claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from termination of this Award of Performance Share Units or diminution in value of the Stock acquired upon settlement resulting from Participant’s separation from service (for any reason whatsoever whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction where Participant is employed or the terms of Participant’s employment agreement, if any), and in consideration of this Award of Performance Share Units to which Participant is otherwise not entitled, Participant irrevocably agrees never to institute any claim against YUM!, any of its Subsidiaries and/or the Employer, waives Participant’s ability, if any, to bring any such claim, and releases YUM!, its Subsidiaries and/or the Employer from any such claim; if, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is allowed by a court of competent jurisdiction, then, by participating in the Plan, Participant shall be deemed irrevocably to have agreed not to pursue such claim and agrees to execute any and all documents necessary to request dismissal or withdrawal of such claim.
(j) Termination of Employment or Service. For purposes of the Performance Share Units without limiting the generality of any other provision of this Agreement,
6

Participant’s employment or service relationship will be considered terminated as of the date Participant is no longer actively providing services to YUM! or one of its Subsidiaries (regardless of the reason for such termination and whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction where Participant is employed or the terms of Participant’s employment agreement, if any), and unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or determined by YUM!, Participant’s right to vest in the Performance Share Units under the Plan, if any, will terminate as of such date and will not be extended by any notice period (e.g., Participant’s period of service would not include any contractual notice period or any period of “garden leave” or similar period mandated under employment laws in the jurisdiction where Participant is employed or the terms of Participant’s employment agreement, if any). The Committee shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when Participant is no longer actively providing services for purposes of the Award (including whether Participant may still be considered to be providing services while on a leave of absence).
(k) Amendment of Existing Agreements. By accepting the Performance Share Units covered by this Agreement, Participant agrees to an amendment to the terms of all prior Global Performance Share Unit Agreements between the Company and Participant pursuant to which there are currently unvested Performance Share Units outstanding, to add a new Section 14 to such Agreements which is identical to Section 14, Restrictive Covenants, of this Agreement.
(l) Corporate Transactions/Assumption of Award. Unless otherwise provided in the Plan or by YUM! in its discretion, the Performance Share Units and the benefits evidenced by this Agreement do not create any entitlement to have the Performance Share Units or any such benefits transferred to, or assumed by, another company nor to be exchanged, cashed out or substituted for, in connection with any corporate transaction affecting the shares of Stock.
6. Compensation Recovery Policy.
(a) Compensation Recovery Policy. Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Performance Share Units granted to Participant under this Agreement shall be subject to the YUM! Brands, Inc. Compensation Recovery Policy, amended and restated January 1, 2015 (“Compensation Recovery Policy”), and as in effect on the date of this Agreement.
(b) Repayment. This Agreement is a voluntary agreement, and Participant has voluntarily chosen to accept such Agreement. Participant understands that the Performance Share Units provided under the Agreement and all amounts paid to the individual under the Agreement are provided as an advance that is contingent on YUM!’s financial statements not being subject to a material restatement. As a condition of the Agreement, Participant specifically agrees that the Committee may cancel, rescind, suspend, withhold or otherwise limit or restrict the Performance Share Units for any individual party to such an agreement due to a material restatement of YUM!’s financial statements, as provided in YUM!’s Compensation Recovery Policy. In the event that amounts have been paid to Participant pursuant to the Agreement and the Committee determines that Participant must repay an amount to YUM! as a result of the Committee’s cancellation, rescission, suspension, withholding or other limitation or restriction of rights, Participant agrees, as a condition of being awarded such rights, to make such repayments.
7

7. No Advice Regarding Grant. The Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding Participant’s participation in the Plan, or sale of the Stock acquired upon vesting of the Performance Share Units (and related Dividend Equivalent Units). Participant is hereby advised to consult with his or her own personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding his or her participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan.
8. Adjustment for Change in Stock. As set forth in the Plan, in the event of any change in the outstanding shares of Stock by reason of any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, combination or exchange of shares or similar corporate change, the number of shares which Participant may receive upon settlement of the Performance Share Units (and related Dividend Equivalent Units) shall be adjusted appropriately in the Committee’s sole discretion.
9. Employment Relationship. For purposes of this Agreement, Participant shall be considered to be in the employment of the Company as long as Participant remains an employee of YUM! or any of its Subsidiaries or a corporation or a subsidiary of YUM! assuming or substituting a new award for this Award of Performance Share Units. Any question as to whether and when there has been a termination of such employment, and the cause of such termination, shall be determined by the Committee, or its delegate, as appropriate, and its determination shall be final. Nothing contained in this Agreement is intended to constitute or create a contract of service or employment, nor shall it constitute or create the right to remain associated with or in the service or employ of YUM!, the Employer or any other Subsidiary or related company for any particular period of time. This Agreement shall not interfere in any way with the right of YUM!, the Employer or any Subsidiary or related company, as applicable, to terminate Participant’s service or employment at any time. Furthermore, this Agreement, the Plan, and any other Plan documents are not part of Participant’s employment contract, if any, and do not guarantee either Participant’s right to receive any future grants of Awards or benefits in lieu thereof under this Agreement or the Plan. The Performance Share Units and any Stock acquired under the Plan and the income and value of same are not part of normal or expected compensation for any purposes of calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, end-of-service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar payments.
10. Data Privacy. Participant hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of Participant’s personal data as described in this Agreement and any other Award materials (“Data”) by and among, as applicable, the Employer, YUM! and its Subsidiaries for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing Participant’s participation in the Plan.
Participant understands that YUM! and the Employer may hold certain personal information about Participant, including, but not limited to, Participant’s name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any Stock or directorships held in YUM!, details of all Awards of Performance Share Units or any other entitlement to Stock awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in Participant’s favor, for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Plan.
8

Participant understands that Data will be transferred to Merrill Lynch, which is assisting YUM! with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. Participant understands that the recipients of the Data may be located in the United States or elsewhere, and that the recipients’ country (e.g., the United States) may have different data privacy laws and protections from Participant’s country. Participant understands that if he or she resides outside the United States, he or she may request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Data by contacting his or her local human resources representative. Participant authorizes YUM!, Merrill Lynch and any other possible recipients which may assist YUM! (presently or in the future) with implementing, administering and managing the Plan to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the sole purpose of implementing, administering and managing his or her participation in the Plan. Participant understands that Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage Participant’s participation in the Plan. Participant understands that if he or she resides outside the United States, he or she may, at any time, view Data, request additional information about the storage and processing of Data, require any necessary amendments to Data or refuse or withdraw the consents herein, in any case without cost, by contacting in writing his or her local human resources representative. Further, Participant understands that he or she is providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis. If Participant does not consent, or if Participant later seeks to revoke his or her consent, his or her employment status or service and career with the Employer will not be adversely affected; the only adverse consequence of refusing or withdrawing his or her consent is that YUM! would not be able to grant Participant Performance Share Units or other Awards or administer or maintain such Awards. Therefore, Participant understands that refusing or withdrawing his or her consent may affect Participant’s ability to participate in the Plan. For more information on the consequences of Participant’s refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, Participant understands that he or she may contact his or her local human resources representative.
11. Mode of Communications. Participant agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, in lieu of receiving documents in paper format, to accept electronic delivery of any documents that YUM! or related company may deliver in connection with this grant and any other grants offered by YUM!, including prospectuses, grant notifications, account statements, annual or quarterly reports, and other communications. Electronic delivery of a document may be made via YUM!’s email system or by reference to a location on YUM!’s intranet or website or website of YUM!’s agent administering the Plan. To the extent Participant has been provided with a copy of this Agreement, the Plan, or any other documents relating to this Award in a language other than English, the English language documents will prevail in case of any ambiguities or divergences as a result of translation.
12. Committee’s Powers. No provision contained in this Agreement shall in any way terminate, modify or alter, or be construed or interpreted as terminating, modifying or altering any of the powers, rights or authority vested in the Committee or, to the extent delegated, in its delegate pursuant to the terms of the Plan or resolutions adopted in furtherance of the Plan, including, without limitation, the right to make certain determinations and elections with respect to the Performance Share Units (and related Dividend Equivalent Units).

13. Severability. The provisions of this Agreement are severable and if any one or more provisions are determined to be illegal or otherwise unenforceable, in whole or in part, the remaining provisions shall nevertheless be binding and enforceable.
14. Restrictive Covenants. By accepting the Performance Share Units, and in consideration of these units and receipt of confidential information from the Company during his or her employment, Participant specifically agrees to the restrictive covenants contained in this Section 14 (the “Restrictive Covenants”) and agrees that the Restrictive Covenants and the remedies described herein are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of the Company.

(b) Competitive Activity.
(i) During Participant’s employment with the Company and for one year following the termination of Participant’s employment for any reason whatsoever, Participant agrees and covenants that: Participant shall not either directly or indirectly, alone or in conjunction with any other party or entity, perform any services, work or consulting for one or more Competitor Companies anywhere in the world. A “Competitor Company” shall be defined as: (A) any company or other entity engaged as a “quick service restaurant” (“QSR”) and (B) any company or other entity that is a delivery-oriented restaurant; and (iii) any entity under common control with an entity included in (A) or (B), above.

10

(ii) Notwithstanding the forgoing, the provisions of this subsection 14(b) are not applicable to a Participant who is a resident of California and provides the majority of his or her services to the Company within California.
(c) Non-Solicitation. During Participant’s employment and for eighteen months following the later of (1) termination of Participant’s employment for any reason whatsoever or (2) the last scheduled award vesting date, Participant shall not:
(i) induce or attempt to induce any employee of the Company to leave the employ of Company;
(ii) induce or attempt to induce any employee of the Company to work for, render services to, or provide advice to any third party;
(iii) induce or attempt to induce any current or former employee of the Company to supply confidential information of Company to any third party, except where disclosure is required to be made to a federal, state, or local government official or to an attorney solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law or in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal;
(iv) employ, or otherwise pay for services rendered by, any employee of the Company in any business enterprise with which Participant may be associated, connected or affiliated;
(v) induce or attempt to induce any customer, franchisee, supplier, licensee, licensor or other business relation of Company to cease doing business with Company, or in any way interfere with the then existing business relationship between any such customer, franchisee, supplier, licensee, licensor or other business relation and Company; or
(vi) assist, solicit, or encourage any other third party, directly or indirectly, in carrying out any activity set forth above that would be prohibited by any of the provisions of this Agreement if such activity were carried out by Participant. In particular, Participant will not, directly or indirectly, induce any employee of Company to carry out any such activity.
Notwithstanding the forgoing, the provisions of this subsection 14(c) are not applicable to a Participant who is a resident of California and provides the majority of his or her services to the Company within California. The Company and Participant agree that the provisions of this Section 14 contain restrictions that are not greater than necessary to protect the interests of the Company.
(d) Partial Invalidity. In the event that any portion of this Section 14 shall be determined by a court or arbitrator to be unenforceable because it is unreasonably restrictive in any respect, it shall be interpreted to extend over the maximum period of time for which it reasonably may be enforced and to the maximum extent for which it reasonably may be enforced in all other respects, and enforced as so interpreted, all as determined by such court or arbitrator
11

in such action. Participant acknowledges the uncertainty of the law in this respect and expressly stipulates that this Agreement is to be given the construction that renders its provisions valid and enforceable to the maximum extent (not exceeding its express terms) possible under applicable law.
(e) Clawback and Recovery. Participant agrees that a breach of any of the Restrictive Covenants set forth in this Section 14 would cause material and irreparable harm to the Company. Accordingly, Participant agrees that if the Committee, in its sole discretion, determines that Participant has violated any of the Restrictive Covenants contained in this Section 14, either during employment with the Company or after such employment terminates for any reason, the following rules shall apply:
(i) The Committee may (A) terminate such Participant’s participation in the Plan and/or (B) send a “Recapture Notice” that will (1) cancel all or a portion of this or any outstanding Performance Share Units, (2) require the return of any shares of Stock received upon settlement of this or any prior Performance Share Units and/or (3) require the reimbursement to the Company of any net proceeds received from the sale of any shares of Stock acquired as a result of such settlement.
(ii) Under this Section 14, the obligation to return shares of Stock received and/or to reimburse the Company for any net proceeds received pursuant to a Recapture Notice, shall be limited to shares and/or proceeds received by Participant within the period that is one year prior to and one year following Participant’s termination of employment.
(iii) The Committee has sole and absolute discretion to take action or not to take action pursuant to this Section 14 upon determination of a breach of a Restrictive Covenant, and its decision not to take action in any particular instance shall not in any way limit its authority to send a Recapture Notice in any other instance.
(iv) Any action taken by the Committee pursuant to this Section 14(e) is without prejudice to any other action the Committee may choose to take upon determination that Participant has violated a Restrictive Covenant contained herein.
(v) This subsection 14(e) will cease to apply upon a Change in Control.
(f) Right of Set Off. By accepting the Performance Share Units, Participant agrees that any member of the Company Group may set off any amount owed to Participant (including wages or other compensation, fringe benefits or vacation pay) against any amounts Participant owes under this Section 14.
15. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors to YUM! and all persons lawfully claiming under Participant.
16. Insider Trading Restrictions/Market Abuse Laws. Participant acknowledges that, depending on his or her country of residence, Participant may be subject to insider trading restrictions and/or market abuse laws, which may affect Participant’s ability to acquire or sell shares of Stock or rights to shares of Stock (e.g., Performance Share Units) under the Plan during
12

such times as Participant is considered to have “inside information” regarding YUM! (as defined by the laws in Participant’s country). Any restrictions under these laws or regulations are separate from and in addition to any restrictions that may be imposed under any applicable Company insider trading policy. Participant acknowledges that it is Participant’s responsibility to comply with any applicable restrictions, and Participant is advised to speak to his or her personal advisor on this matter.
