Dear Sara,
        
On behalf of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of FireEye, Inc. (the
“Company”), we are pleased to inform you that our Nominating and Corporate
Governance Committee has nominated you for election as a member of our Board.
This offer is subject to final approval by our Board and election as a member of
our Board.

As you are aware, the Company is a Delaware corporation and therefore your
rights and duties as a Board member are prescribed by Delaware law and our
charter documents, as well as by the policies established by our Board from time
to time and the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission and The NASDAQ Stock Market. As you are also aware, upon your formal
appointment to the Board, you will become a Section 16 reporting person of the
Company. You may also be requested to serve as a director of one or more of our
subsidiaries in which case you may be subject to other laws while serving in
such a capacity. In addition, please note that, as a director, you will be
subject to the corporate policies of the Company, including but not limited to
the Company’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics Policy, External
Communications (Regulation FD) Policy, Anti-Corruption Policy, Insider Trading
Policy and Stock Ownership Guidelines.

As a non-employee member of our Board, you may be asked to serve on one or more
committees of our Board in the future. In addition to committee meetings, which
shall be convened as needed, our Board meetings are generally held quarterly at
the Company’s offices in Milpitas, California. We would hope that your schedule
would permit you to attend all of the meetings of the Board and any committees
of which you are a member. In addition, from time to time, there may be
telephonic meetings to address special matters.

It is expected that during the term of your Board membership with the Company
you will not engage in any other employment, occupation, consulting or other
business activity that competes with the business in which the Company is now
involved in or becomes involved in during the term of your service to the
Company, nor will you engage in any other activities that conflict with your
obligations to the Company.

If you decide to join the Board, then at the time of your election as a member
of the Board, you will be granted an award of restricted stock units (“RSUs”)
with a total value of $400,000 (the “Initial Award”) (with the number of shares
subject thereto determined based on that total value, but rounded down to the
nearest whole share), pursuant to the Company’s Outside Director Compensation
Policy (the “Outside Director Compensation Policy”). The Initial Award will be
subject to the terms and conditions of our 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the
“Plan”) and our standard form of RSU agreement thereunder. Subject to the
Outside Director Compensation Policy and the Plan, the Initial Award will vest
as to one-third (1/3rd) of the RSUs subject to the Initial Award on each
anniversary of the date of grant, in each case subject to you continuing to
serve as a Board member through the applicable vesting date. Furthermore, after
becoming a member of the Board, you will be entitled to receive additional
annual equity awards in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Outside
Director Compensation Policy.

In accordance with the terms of the Outside Director Compensation Policy and the
Plan, in connection with a Change in Control (as defined in the Plan), all RSUs
subject to the Initial Award granted in accordance with the foregoing provisions
shall vest in full if the successor corporation does not assume or substitute
for the Initial Award or your status as a director of the Company or the
successor corporation, as applicable, is terminated other than upon a voluntary
resignation by you (unless such resignation is at the request of the acquirer).

The payment of compensation to Board members is subject to many restrictions

Furthermore, except as otherwise provided to other non-employee Board members or
required by law, the Company does not intend to afford you any rights as an

agreement with these terms by signing both the enclosed duplicate and original
letter and returning them to me. By signing this letter you also represent that
the execution and delivery of this agreement and the fulfillment of the terms
hereof will not require the consent of another person, constitute a default
under or conflict with any agreement or other instrument to which you are bound
or a party.

On behalf of the Company it gives us great pleasure to welcome you as a member
of our Board. We anticipate your leadership and experience shall make a key

Yours very truly,
