Upon the termination of this Agreement for any reason, the provisions of this Agreement that by their terms survive such expiration or termination shall continue in effect and will bind each of the parties according to the terms thereof. No term or condition of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been waived, nor shall there be any estoppel to enforce any provision of this Agreement, except by a statement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of the waiver or estoppel is sought. Any written waiver shall not be deemed a continuing waiver unless specifically stated, shall operate only as to the specific term or condition waived and shall not constitute a waiver of such term or condition for the future or as to any act other than that specifically waived.

General. The Contributor agrees that, during the period beginning on and including the close of an initial public offering of the Common Stock (“Effective Date”) through and including the twelve-month anniversary of the Effective Date (the “Lock-Up Period”), the Contributor, or any affiliated party of the Contributor, will not, without the prior written consent of the Company, directly or indirectly:

General. Subject to the other provisions of this Section 2, the PSUs shall vest as set forth on [Schedule 1] to this Agreement, based on the achievement of the performance goal for the performance period set forth on [Schedule 1], as certified by the Compensation Committee promptly following the performance period. Such date on which PSUs vest under this Agreement may be referred to herein as the "Vesting Date." Subject to Section 4, as soon as administratively practicable after the Vesting Date shown on [Schedule 1], the Company will issue to the Participant, in certificated or uncertificated form, such number of Shares as is equal to the number of PSUs that vested on such Vesting Date. In no event shall the Shares be issued to the Participant later than 30 days after the Vesting Date.

The Participant shall vest in the RSUs as follows: one-third of the total number of RSUs subject to this grant (including DEUs credited with respect to such RSUs) shall vest on March 6, 2019, one-third of the total number of RSUs subject to this grant (including DEUs credited with respect to such RSUs) shall vest on March 6, 2020, and the remaining number of RSUs subject to this grant (including DEUs credited with respect to such RSUs) shall vest on March 6, 2021. The Participant must be continuously employed by the Company or a Related Company (as defined in paragraph 13) from the date the RSUs are granted through each of the applicable vesting dates specified in this paragraph 5(a) as a condition to the vesting of the applicable installment of the RSUs, except as otherwise provided in paragraph 7 (“Early Cancellation/Accelerated Vesting of RSUs”) or as otherwise provided by the Committee.

General. Except as otherwise provided in paragraph 26 below, all disputes arising under or related to the Plan or this Agreement and all claims in which a Participant seeks damages or other relief that relate in any way to RSUs or other benefits of the Plan are subject to the dispute resolution procedure described below in this paragraph 25.

General. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, you agree that, with respect to all RSUs granted to you on or after January 1, 2007 and all short-term incentive awards made to you on or after January 1, 2007, to the extent the Company or any Related Company is required to materially restate any financial results based upon your willful misconduct or gross negligence while employed by the Company or any Related Company (and where such restatement would have resulted in a lower payment being made to you), you will be required to repay all previously paid or deferred # RSUs and # short-term incentive awards that were provided to you during the performance periods that are the subject of the restated financial results, plus a reasonable rate of interest. For purposes of this paragraph, “willful misconduct” and “gross negligence” shall be as determined by the Committee. The Audit Committee of the Verizon Board of Directors shall determine whether a material restatement of financial results has occurred. If you do not repay the entire amount required under this paragraph, the Company may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, offset your obligation to repay against any source of income available to it, including but not limited to any money you may have in your nonqualified deferral accounts.

General. Awards may be granted on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 6. In addition, the Committee may impose on any Award or the exercise thereof, at the date of grant or thereafter (subject to Section 10(f)), such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as the Committee shall determine, including terms requiring forfeiture of Awards in the event of termination of the Participant’s Continuous Service and terms permitting a Participant to make elections relating to his or her Award. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Committee shall retain full power and discretion to accelerate, waive, or modify, at any time, any term or condition of an Award that is not mandatory under the Plan. Except in cases in which the Committee is authorized to require other forms of consideration under the Plan, or to the extent other forms of consideration must be paid to satisfy the requirements of the law of the Company’s incorporation, no consideration other than services may be required for the grant (as opposed to the exercise) of any Award.
