Definitions Continued | “Good Reason” shall have the meaning set forth in the employment agreement, if any, between the Grantee and Brunswick as in effect on the Grant Date, provided that if the Grantee is not a party to an employment agreement that contains such definition, then Good Reason means the occurrence of any of the following events without the Grantee’s express written consent: (a) a material breach by Brunswick of any provision of this Agreement; (b) Brunswick’s failure to pay any portion of Grantee’s compensation when due or to include Grantee in any bonus or incentive plan that applies to similarly situated employees of Brunswick; (c) Brunswick’s failure to provide, or continue to provide, Grantee with either the perquisites or employee health and welfare benefits (including, without limitation, life insurance, medical, dental, vision, long-term disability and similar benefits), generally provided to similarly situated employees of Brunswick; (d) a Reduction in Authority or Responsibility of the Grantee (as defined below); (e) a Reduction in Compensation (as defined below); and (f) a Business Relocation Beyond a Reasonable Commuting Distance (as defined below); provided, however, that the occurrence of any such condition shall not constitute Good Reason unless (x) the Grantee provides written notice to Brunswick of the existence of such condition not later than 60 days after the Grantee knows or reasonably should know of the existence of such condition, (y) Brunswick fails to remedy such condition within 30 days after receipt of such notice and (z) Grantee resigns due to the existence of such condition within 60 days after the expiration of the remedial period described in clause (y) hereof.

Definitions Continued | “Permanent Disability” means the Grantee is unable 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 can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months. “Retirement” shall mean that the Grantee’s employment terminates for a reason other than Cause on or after the date on which either (i) the Grantee has either attained age 62, provided that for purposes of age 62, participant must have at least 3 years of continuous service from their latest hire date or (ii) the sum of the Grantee’s age plus years of continuous service from his or her latest hire date equals 70 or more. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in these terms and conditions, for purposes of applying the favorable Retirement vesting terms set forth herein to grants made to residents of the European Union, the Grantee shall be deemed to be eligible for Retirement if, and only if, the Grantee has attained the retirement date specified in the retirement plan in which such Grantee participates.
Additional Terms and Conditions | This award is subject to the terms of the Plan. The Plan and these Terms and Conditions together constitute the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter specifically addressed herein. To the extent any provision herein conflicts with the Plan, the Plan shall govern. The Human Resources and Compensation Committee of the Board administers the Plan. The Committee may interpret the Plan and adopt, amend and rescind administrative guidelines and other rules as deemed appropriate. Committee determinations are conclusive and binding on all interested parties. This award and any shares delivered pursuant to this award are subject to forfeiture, recovery by Brunswick or other action pursuant to any clawback or recoupment policy which Brunswick may adopt from time to time, including without limitation, the Brunswick Corporation Compensation Recoupment Policy. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Brunswick shall have the right to offset from any amount distributable hereunder any amount that the Grantee owes to Brunswick or any affiliate thereof without the consent of the Grantee (or his or her beneficiary, in the event of the Grantee’s death). The grant of this award does not guarantee the Grantee the right to or expectation of any future awards under the Plan or any future incentive plan adopted by Brunswick, and the value of the Restricted Stock Units is not part of his or her normal or expected compensation for purposes of calculating any severance, retirement, welfare, insurance or other similar employee benefit. The Plan may be amended, suspended or terminated at any time. The Plan, these Terms and Conditions, and the Restricted Stock Units will be governed by the laws of the State of Illinois, without regard to the conflict of law provisions of any jurisdiction.

Nothing contained in these Terms and Conditions or the Plan constitutes or is intended to create a contract of continued employment. Employment is at-will and may be terminated by either the employee or Brunswick (including affiliates) for any reason at any time.
