Adoption of Matching PRSU Program
On February 25, 2016, the Company’s Board of Directors, upon the recommendation of its Compensation Committee, adopted a one-time incentive program for a group of senior executives in the Company including the Chief Executive Officer. This program provides an incentive for these executives to purchase Company common stock in the open market at market prices between February 25, 2016 and September 15, 2016, subject to compliance with the Company’s trading window guidelines. Under the terms of the program, if an executive purchases Company common stock according to the parameters of the program, including the applicable cap as described below, the Company has committed to matching the executive’s investment with a matching value of performance restricted stock units (“Matching PRSUs”). The Company’s obligation to match is subject to a dollar cap for each senior executive (based on the applicable executive’s position and the total purchase price paid by the applicable executive), with the Company’s total commitment for all these executives equal to $11.1 million, including a $3.0 maximum commitment for purchases by our Chief Executive Officer. These Matching PRSUs will vest ratably over a five year period, and will be subject to a performance threshold for Section 162(m) purposes of positive profits (as defined in the program) for 2016. Unvested Matching PRSUs held by any executive will expire should that executive sell any of his or her purchased shares during the 5 year vesting period. The Compensation Committee and Board of Directors strongly believe that encouraging our senior executives to make and retain meaningful long term cash investments creates a strong performance incentive and further aligns our senior executives with our stockholders.
The form of Matching PRSU Agreement is filed as Exhibit 99.1, and is incorporated herein by reference. The information in this Item 7.01 (including Exhibit 99.1) shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (“Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liability of that section, and shall not be incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other document filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

2013 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN
Matching Performance Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement
( )
This Matching Performance Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement (this “Agreement”), dated as of , 2016, is between Tempur Sealy International, Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (the “Company”), and the individual identified below, residing at the address there set out (the “Recipient”).
1. Award of Performance Restricted Stock Units. Pursuant and subject to the Company’s 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (as the same may be amended from time to time, the “Plan”), the Company grants the Recipient an award (the “Award”) for performance restricted stock units (“Performance Restricted Stock Units”), each representing the right to a share of the common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the “Stock”) on and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. This Award is granted as of , 2016 (the “Grant Date”) and is intended to qualify as a Qualified Performance-Based Award.
[This Agreement is entered into in connection with the purchase by the Recipient of shares of stock on , 2016 at an average price of $ (the “Purchased Shares”).]
2. Rights of Performance Restricted Stock Units. The Recipient will receive no dividend equivalent payments on the Performance Restricted Stock Units or with respect to the Stock. Unless and until the vesting conditions of the Award have been satisfied and the Recipient has received the shares of Stock in accordance with the terms and conditions described herein, the Recipient shall have none of the attributes of ownership with respect to such shares of Stock.
3. Vesting Period and Rights; Taxes; and Filings.
(a) Vesting Period and Rights. The Award will vest in five equal installments on the first five anniversaries of the Grant Date (each “Vesting Date”), unless the Award terminates or vests earlier in accordance with paragraph (c) or paragraph (d) below or Section 4 or 5 hereof. Subject to the provisions of Sections 4 and 5 below, any vesting is subject to the Recipient continuing to be employed by the Company or an Affiliate of the Company on the applicable Vesting Date. Any Performance Restricted Stock Units that have been vested as described above are referred to herein as “Vested PRSUs”.
(b) Taxes. The Recipient is required to provide sufficient funds to pay all withholding taxes. Pursuant to the Plan, the Company shall have the right to require the Recipient to remit to the Company an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state, local or other withholding tax requirements if, when, and to the extent required by law (whether so required to secure for the Company an otherwise available tax deduction or otherwise) attributable to the Award awarded under this Agreement, including without limitation, the award or lapsing of
stock restrictions on the Award. The obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall be conditional on satisfaction of all such withholding obligations and the Company shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise due to the Recipient. However, in such cases Recipient may elect, subject to any reasonable administrative procedures for timely compliance established by the Committee, to satisfy an applicable withholding requirement, in whole or in part, by having the Company withhold a portion of the shares of Stock to be issued under the Award to satisfy the Recipient’s tax obligations. The Recipient may only elect to have shares of Stock withheld having a Market Value on the date the tax is to be determined equal to the minimum statutory total withholding taxes arising upon the vesting of the Award. If the Recipient has not submitted an election on or before the thirtieth (30) day prior to a Vesting Date, Recipient shall be deemed to have elected to have shares withheld from the shares of Stock to be issued under the Award to satisfy the Recipient’s tax obligation. All elections shall be irrevocable, made in writing, signed by the Recipient, and shall be subject to any restrictions or limitations that the Committee deems appropriate.
(c) Forfeitures on Sale of Purchased Shares. If, at any time prior to the fifth anniversary of the Grant Date, the Recipient directly or indirectly sells or otherwise transfers any interest in any of the Purchased Shares, other than Permitted Transfers, then all Performance Restricted Stock Units that have not become Vested PRSUs shall terminate immediately and be forfeited. As used herein, “Permitted Transfers” shall mean any bona fide transfer for estate planning purposes approved in advance by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Committee”).
(d) Performance Condition for Vesting. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if the Company does not have positive Profits for 2016, then all Performance Restricted Stock Units (whether or not Vested PRSUs) shall terminate immediately and be forfeited. The calculation of Profits is described in Appendix B hereto.
(e) Filings. The Recipient is responsible for any filings required under Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules thereunder.
4. Termination of Employment. If the Recipient’s employment with the Company or an Affiliate of the Company terminates prior to the fifth anniversary of the Grant Date, including because the Recipient’s employer ceases to be an Affiliate, the right to the Performance Restricted Stock Units and the Stock shall be as follows:
(a) Death. If the Recipient dies, the Performance Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder will vest immediately and the person or persons to whom the Recipient’s rights shall pass by will or the laws of descent and distribution shall be entitled to receive all of the Stock with respect thereto, subject to meeting the performance test in Section 3(d).
(b) Long-Term Disability. If the Company or an Affiliate of the Company terminates the Recipient’s employment for long-term disability (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code), the Performance Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder will vest immediately and Recipient shall be entitled to receive all of the Stock with respect thereto, subject to meeting the performance test in Section 3(d).
2
(c) By the Company For Cause or By the Recipient Without Good Reason. If the Recipient ceases to be an employee of the Company or an Affiliate of the Company due to the Recipient’s termination by the Company or such Affiliate For Cause or if the Recipient resigns or otherwise terminates his employment without Good Reason, including by any Retirement that is not an Approved Retirement or the Recipient’s voluntary departure, the Recipient’s right to such Performance Restricted Stock Units and the Stock granted hereunder shall be forfeited, no Stock shall be issued and the Performance Restricted Stock Units shall be cancelled. The terms “For Cause”, “Good Reason”, “Retirement” and “Approved Retirement” are defined below.
(d) By the Company Other Than For Cause or By the Recipient for Good Reason. If the Recipient ceases to be an employee of the Company or an Affiliate of the Company due to the Recipient’s termination by the Company or such Affiliate other than For Cause, by his resignation for Good Reason, or due to Recipient’s employer ceasing to be an Affiliate (in the absence of a Change of Control), then the Recipient’s right to such Performance Restricted Stock Units and the Stock granted hereunder shall be forfeited, no Stock shall be issued and the Performance Restricted Stock Units shall be cancelled.
(e) Approved Retirement. In the event of the Recipient’s Retirement, the Committee may consent to the continued vesting of a pro-rata portion of the Performance Restricted Stock Units on the remaining Vesting Dates (an “Approved Retirement”) and the balance shall be cancelled and no Stock issued therefor. For this purpose, “pro-rata portion” means (i) the number of Performance Restricted Stock Units granted multiplied by the actual number of full calendar months that elapsed from the Grant Date to the date of such Approved Retirement and then divided by 60 less (ii) the number of Performance Restricted Stock Units already vested. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Stock shall be issued and all of Recipient’s rights to the Performance Restricted Stock Units and Stock hereunder shall be forfeited, expire and terminate unless (i) the Company shall have received a release of all claims from the Recipient in the form customarily used by the Company in connection with the departures of senior executives (“Release and Waiver”) (and said Release and Waiver shall have become irrevocable in accordance with its terms) prior to the next applicable Vesting Date (or if earlier, the deadline established in the form of release delivered by the Company to Recipient for execution) and (ii) the Recipient shall have complied with the covenants set forth in Section 10 of this Agreement. If the Committee shall for any reason decline to consent to continued vesting on the Recipient’s Retirement, then the provisions of subsection (c) above shall instead apply.
(f) Definitions. As used in this Agreement:
(i) “Change of Control” shall have the meaning set forth in the Plan, provided, that no event or transaction shall constitute a Change of Control for purposes of this Agreement unless it also qualifies as a change of control for purposes of Section 409A of the Code;
(ii) “Employee”, “employment”, “termination of employment” and “cease to be employed,” and other words or phrases of similar import, shall mean the continued provision of substantial services to the Company or any of its Affiliates (or the cessation or termination of such services) whether as an employee, consultant or director;
3
(iii) “Employment Agreement” means the [Employment Agreement] dated as of , between Recipient and the Company1;
(iv) “For Cause” shall have the meaning assigned to such term in the Employment Agreement;
(v) “Good Reason” shall have the meaning assigned to such term in the Employment Agreement; and
(vi) “Retirement” shall have the meaning assigned to such term in the applicable retirement policy of the Company or its Affiliates as in effect at such time.
(g) Payment. In all cases, payment (i.e., issuance of the Stock) with respect to any Vested PRSUs shall be made promptly and, in any event, within twenty (20) days following the later of (x) the applicable Vesting Date or the date of any accelerated vesting as described in Section 4(a) or Section 4(b) above and (y) the determination of whether the performance goal in Section 3(d) has been met. For this purpose, Performance Restricted Stock Units continuing to vest on account of an Approved Retirement, shall continue to vest as provided above only if the Company has received the required Release and Waiver, but delivery of the Stock on or after the next applicable Vesting Date pursuant to this paragraph (g) shall not obviate the need to comply with the covenants contained in Section 10 until the Covenant Termination Date in order to retain the Stock then delivered.
5. Change of Control Provisions. Pursuant to the Change of Control provisions of Section 9 of the Plan and notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary if a Change of Control occurs, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms subject to the following. In the event of such Change of Control:
(a) if the Recipient’s employment is terminated by the Company or an Affiliate of the Company other than For Cause or if the Recipient resigns for Good Reason within twelve (12) months after the occurrence of a Change of Control, all of the Recipient’s Performance Restricted Stock Units shall immediately vest as of such date and Recipient shall be entitled to receive all of the Stock promptly and, in any event, within twenty (20) days after the date of such termination of employment; and
(b) if the Performance Restricted Stock Units are not assumed, converted or replaced by a successor organization following such Change of Control, all of the Recipient’s Performance Restricted Stock Units shall immediately vest as of such date and Recipient shall be entitled to receive all of the Stock promptly and, in any event, within twenty (20) days after the date of the Change of Control.
(c) The Company (or any successor organization) may require the Recipient to enter into a restricted stock unit award agreement that replaces this Agreement and reflects the terms described above.
| 1 | Note: If any Recipient does not have an Employment Agreement with the appropriate definitions of “For Cause” and “Good Reason” then these terms (in the forms used in the recent LTIP grants) will be added. |

6. Other Provisions.
(a) This Award of Performance Restricted Stock Units does not give the Recipient any right to continue to be employed by the Company or any of its Affiliates, or limit, in any way, the right of the Company or its Affiliates to terminate the Recipient’s employment, at any time, for any reason not specifically prohibited by law.
(b) The Company is not liable for the non-issuance or non-transfer, nor for any delay in the issuance or transfer of any shares of Stock due to the Recipient upon the Vesting Date (or, if vesting of the Performance Restricted Stock Units is accelerated pursuant to Section 4 or 5, such earlier date) with respect to vested Performance Restricted Stock Units which results from the inability of the Company to obtain, from each regulatory body having jurisdiction, all requisite authority to issue or transfer shares of common stock of the Company if counsel for the Company deems such authority necessary for the lawful issuance or transfer of any such shares. Acceptance of this Award constitutes the Recipient’s agreement that the shares of Stock subsequently acquired hereunder, if any, will not be sold or otherwise disposed of by the Recipient in violation of any applicable securities laws or regulations.
(c) The Award, the Performance Restricted Stock Units and entitlement to the Stock are subject to this Agreement and Recipient’s acceptance hereof shall constitute the Recipient’s agreement to any administrative regulations of the Committee of the Board.

(d) All decisions of the Committee upon any questions arising under the Plan or under these terms and conditions shall be conclusive and binding, including, without limitation, those decisions and determinations to adjust the Performance Restricted Stock Units made by the Committee pursuant to the authority granted under Section 8.4(d) of the Plan.
(e) Except as provided in Section 6.4 of the Plan, no right hereunder related to the Award or these Performance Restricted Stock Units and no rights hereunder to the underlying Stock shall be transferable (except by will or the laws of descent and distribution) until such time, if ever, that the Stock is earned and delivered.
7. Incorporation of Plan Terms. This Award is granted subject to all of the applicable terms and provisions of the Plan, including but not limited to Section 8 of the Plan, “Adjustment Provisions”, and the limitations on the Company’s obligation to deliver Stock upon vesting set forth in Section 10 of the Plan, “Settlement of Awards”. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning assigned under the Plan. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall control.
8. Miscellaneous. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the conflict of laws principles thereof and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successor or assign of the Company and any executor, administrator, trustee, guardian, or other legal representative of the Recipient. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts all of which together shall constitute one instrument.
5

11. Right of Set Off. By executing this Agreement, the Recipient consents to a deduction from any amounts the Company or any Affiliate owes the Recipient from time to time, to the extent of the amounts the Recipient owes the Company under Section 10 above, provided that this set-off right may not be applied against wages, salary or other amounts payable to the Recipient to the extent that the exercise of such set-off right would violate any applicable law. If the Company does not recover by means of set-off the full amount the Recipient owes the Company, calculated as set forth above, the Recipient agrees to pay immediately the unpaid balance to the Company upon the Company’s demand.
12. Nature of Remedies.
(a) The remedies set forth in Sections 10 and 11 above are in addition to any remedies available to the Company and its Affiliates in any non-competition, employment, confidentiality or other agreement, and all such rights are cumulative. The exercise of any rights hereunder or under any such other agreement shall not constitute an election of remedies.
(b) The Company shall be entitled to place a legend on any certificate evidencing any Stock acquired upon vesting of this Award referring to the repurchase right set forth in Section 10(a) above. The Company shall also be entitled to issue stop transfer instructions to the Company’s stock transfer agent in the event the Company believes that any event referred to in Section 10(a) has occurred or is reasonably likely to occur.
13. Clawback Policy. The Recipient acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Company’s Clawback Policy, and acknowledges and agrees that the shares of Stock issuable under this Agreement shall be subject to the Clawback Policy or any amended version thereof, and any other clawback policy approved by the Company’s Board of Directors.

DETERMINATION OF FINAL AWARD
(a) Target Based on Profits. 100% of the Performance Restricted Stock Units will be forfeited if the Company does not achieve positive Profits (i.e. greater than zero) for the year ended December 31, 2016. Any Performance Restricted Stock Units not forfeited will remain subject to the vesting provisions of Section 3 and the provisions of Section 4 of the Agreement.
