Global Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement

SECTION 1. GRANT OF AWARD
On the terms and conditions set forth in the Global Notice of Restricted Stock
Unit Award (the “Notice”), this Global Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement
(the “Agreement”), including any country specific terms and conditions set forth
in any appendix hereto (the “Appendix”) (the Notice, this Agreement and the
Appendix, collectively, the “Award Agreement”), the company grants to the
Grantee on the Grant Date (as defined in the Notice) the award for the number of
Restricted Stock Units set forth in the Notice.
SECTION 2. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER OF AWARD
The Award may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned or otherwise
encumbered or disposed of by the Grantee, and, subject to the restrictions
contained in this Award Agreement and the Plan, Shares issuable with respect to
the Award may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned or otherwise
encumbered or disposed of until (i) the Restricted Stock Units have vested as
provided in the Notice and (ii) Shares have been issued to the Grantee in
accordance with the terms of the Plan and this Award Agreement.
SECTION 3. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT
If the Grantee’s employment terminates for any reason (including death or

Stock Units that have not vested as of such date shall automatically and without
notice terminate and be forfeited, and neither the Grantee nor any of his or her

SECTION 4. RECEIPT OF SHARES OF STOCK
As soon as practicable following each Vesting Date (but in no event later than

subject to and governed by all the terms and conditions of the Plan, including

terms in this Award Agreement shall have the meaning specified in the Plan,
unless a different meaning is specified herein.
SECTION 6. TAX WITHHOLDING
ACTIVE/101062433.2

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Regardless of any action that the Company or, if different, the Grantee’s actual
employer or any Parent, Subsidiary or affiliate to which the Grantee provides
Service if the Grantee is a Consultant (collectively, the “Employer”) takes with
respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on
account, or other tax-related items related to the Grantee’s participation in
the Plan and legally applicable to him or her (“Tax-Related Items”), the Grantee
acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items is and
remains the Grantee’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld
by the Company or the Employer. The Grantee further acknowledges that the
Company and/or the Employer (a) make no representations or undertakings
regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect
of the Restricted Stock Units, including, without limitation, the grant,
vesting, or settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, the issuance of Shares
upon settlement, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such
issuance, and the receipt of any dividends or dividend equivalents; and (b) do
not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or
any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units to reduce or eliminate the Grantee’s
liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. The
Grantee shall not make any claim against the Company or its Board of Directors,
officers or employees related to Tax-Related Items arising from this Award or
the Grantee’s other compensation. Furthermore, if the Grantee has become subject
to tax in more than one jurisdiction, the Grantee acknowledges that the Company
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.
Prior to any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, the
Grantee will pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company
and/or the Employer to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, the
Grantee authorizes the Company and/or the Employer, or their respective agents,
at their discretion, to satisfy the obligations with regard to all Tax-Related
Items by one or a combination of the following:
(a)withholding from the Grantee’s wages or other cash compensation paid to him
or her by the Company and/or the Employer; or
(b)withholding from proceeds of the sale of Shares acquired upon vesting and
settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, either through a voluntary sale or
through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on the Grantee’s behalf
pursuant to this authorization); or
(c)withholding in Shares to be issued upon vesting and settlement of the
Restricted Stock Units; provided, however, that if Grantee is a Section 16
officer of the Company under the Exchange Act, then the Committee shall
establish the method of withholding from alternatives (a)-(c) herein.
Depending on the withholding method, the Company may withhold or account for
Tax-Related Items by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding
amounts or other applicable withholding rates, including up to the maximum
statutory tax rate for the applicable tax jurisdiction, to the extent consistent
with the Plan and applicable laws, in which case any over-withheld amount will
be refunded to the Grantee in cash (with no entitlement to the Share equivalent)
or if not refunded the Grantee may seek a refund from the local tax authorities.
If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in Shares,
the Grantee is deemed, for tax purposes, to have been issued the full number of
Shares subject to the vested Restricted Stock
ACTIVE/101062433.2

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Units, notwithstanding that a number of the Shares is held back solely for the
purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items.
Finally, the Grantee shall pay to the Company or the Employer any amount of
Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold
or account for as a result of the Grantee’s participation in the Plan that
cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to
issue or deliver the Shares or the proceeds of the sale of Shares if the Grantee
fails to comply with his or her obligations in connection with the Tax-Related
Items.
SECTION 7. SECTION 409A
This Award Agreement shall be interpreted in such a manner that all provisions
relating to the settlement of the Award are exempt from the requirements of
Section 409A of the Code as “short-term deferrals” as described in Section 409A
of the Code. Solely for purposes of Section 409A of the Code, each issuance of
Shares on a Vesting Date shall be considered a separate payment. The Company
makes no representations or warranty and shall have no liability to the Grantee
or any other person if any provisions of this Award are determined to constitute
deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code but do not satisfy an
exemption from, or the conditions of, such Section.
SECTION 8. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

given in writing. It shall be deemed effective upon (i) personal delivery,

prepaid, (iii) deposit with Federal Express Corporation (or other overnight
courier service approved by the Company), with shipping charges prepaid or (iv)

Agreement shall be governed by and constructed in accordance with the General
Corporation Law of the State of Delaware as to matters within the scope thereof,
and as to all other matters shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the internal laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict of
law principles that would result in the application of any law other than the
law of the State of California. For purposes of litigating any dispute that
arises directly or indirectly from the relationship of the parties evidenced by
the Award or this Award Agreement and/or the Plan, the parties hereby submit to
and consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the State of California and agree
that such litigation shall be conducted only in the courts of the County of San
Mateo, California, or the United States federal courts for the
ACTIVE/101062433.2

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Northern District of California, and no other courts, where the grant of the
Award is made and/or to be performed.
(iv)Authorization to Disclose. The Grantee hereby authorizes and directs the
Employer to disclose to the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary such information
regarding the Grantee’s Service, the nature and amount of Grantee’s compensation

Employer deems necessary or appropriate to facilitate the administration of the
Plan.
(v)Personal Data Authorization.
(1)The Grantee hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection,
use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of his or her personal data as

any Subsidiary or affiliate for the exclusive purpose of implementing,
administering and managing the Grantee’s participation in the Plan.
(2)The Grantee understands that the Company and the Employer may hold certain
personal information about the Grantee, including the Grantee’s name, home
address, email address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance
number, passport number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job
title, any Shares or directorships held in the Company, details of all
Restricted Stock Units or any other entitlement to Shares awarded, canceled,
exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in the Grantee’s favor, for the
purpose of managing and administering the Plan.
(3)The Grantee understands that Data will be transferred to any stock plan
service provider or broker as may be selected by the Company in the future,
which is assisting the Company with the implementation, administration and
management of the Plan. The Grantee 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 than the Grantee’s country. The Grantee understands that if he or
she resides outside of 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. The Grantee authorizes the Company,
any stock plan service provider or broker selected by the Company and any other
possible recipients that may assist the Company (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 the Grantee’s participation in the
Plan. The Grantee understands that Data will be held only as long as is
necessary to implement, administer and manage his or her participation in the
Plan. The Grantee understands that if he or she resides outside the United
States, at any time, he or she may view Data, request 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
ACTIVE/101062433.2

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

human resources representative. Further, the Grantee understands that he or she
is providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis. If the Grantee
does not consent, or if the Grantee later seeks to revoke his or her consent,
his or her employment status or service with the Employer will not be affected;
the only consequence of refusing or withdrawing the Grantee’s consent is that
the Company would not be able to grant Restricted Stock Units or other equity
awards to the Grantee or administer or maintain such awards. Therefore, the
Grantee understands that refusing or withdrawing his or her consent may affect
the Grantee’s ability to participate in the Plan. For more information on the
consequences of refusing to consent or withdrawing consent, the Grantee
understands that he or she may contact his or her local human resources
representative.

related to the Plan translated into a language other than English and if the
meaning of the translated version differs from the English version, the English
version shall control.

be binding and enforceable.

Award shall be subject to any special terms and conditions set forth in any
Appendix to this Award Agreement for the Grantee’s country. Moreover, if the
Grantee relocates to one of the countries included in the Appendix, the special

that the Company determines that the application of such terms and conditions is
necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons. The Appendix
constitutes part of this Award Agreement.

other requirements on the Grantee’s participation in the Plan, on this Award and
on any Shares acquired under the Plan, to the extent that the Company determines

be necessary to accomplish the foregoing.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

GLOBAL RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENTUNDER THE GUIDEWIRE SOFTWARE,
INC.2011 STOCK PLAN

TERMS AND CONDITIONS
This Appendix, which is part of the Award Agreement, includes additional terms
and conditions that govern the Restricted Stock Units and that will apply to the
Grantee if he or she is in one of the countries listed below. The Company, in
its discretion, will determine to what extent terms and conditions contained
herein shall be applicable to the Grantee.
NOTIFICATIONS
This Appendix also includes information regarding securities, exchange control
and certain other issues of which the Grantee should be aware with respect to
his or her participation in the Plan. The information is based on the
securities, exchange control and other laws in effect in the respective
countries as of September 2016. Such laws are often complex and change
frequently. As a result, the Company strongly recommends that the Grantee not
rely on the information in this Appendix as the only source of information
relating to the consequences of his or her participation in the Plan because
such information may be outdated when the Restricted Stock Units become vested
and/or when any Shares acquired upon vesting and settlement are sold.
In addition, the information contained herein is general in nature and may not
apply to the Grantee’s particular situation. As a result, the Company is not in
a position to assure the Grantee of any particular result. The Grantee therefore
is encouraged to seek appropriate professional advice as to how the relevant
laws in his or her country may apply to his or her particular situation.
Finally, if the Grantee is a citizen or resident of a country other than that in
which the Grantee currently is working and/or residing, if he or she transfers
employment and/or residency to a different country after the grant of the
Restricted Stock Units, or is considered resident of another country for local
law purposes, then the notifications contained herein may not apply to him or
her.
Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms set forth in this Appendix
shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Notice, the Agreement and/or the
Plan.
AUSTRALIA

for purposes of the Award, the Grantee’s employment relationship will be
considered terminated as of the earlier of (a) the date that the Grantee

longer actively providing employment (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 the Grantee renders Service or the
terms of the Grantee’s Service agreement, if any), and unless otherwise
expressly provided in this Award Agreement or determined by the Company, the
Grantee’s right to continue to vest in the Restricted Stock Units, if any, will
terminate effective as of such date and will not be extended by any notice
period (e.g., active employment would not include any contractual notice period
or any period of “garden leave” or similar period mandated under employment laws
in the jurisdiction where Grantee renders Service or the terms of the Grantee’s
Service agreement, if any); the Committee shall have the exclusive discretion to

with their advisors the Grantee’s participation in the Plan. The Grantee also

NOTIFICATIONS
Securities Law Notification. The Grantee is permitted to sell Shares acquired

Foreign Asset Reporting Information. If the Grantee is a Canadian resident, the

Verification Statement) the foreign property (including Shares acquired under
the Plan) he or she holds if the total cost of such foreign property exceeds
C$100,000 at any time during the year. Unvested RSUs also must be reported
(generally at nil cost) on Form T1135 if the C$100,000 threshold is exceeded due
to other foreign property the Grantee holds. If Shares are acquired, their cost

other shares. The Form T1135 must be filed at the same time the Grantee files
his or her annual tax return. The Grantee is advised to consult with a personal
advisor to ensure he or she complies with the applicable reporting obligations.

NEW ZEALAND
NOTIFICATIONS
The following information is applicable to grants of Restricted Stock Units made
on or after December 1, 2016.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If the Company runs into financial difficulties and is wound up, the Grantee
will be paid only after all creditors and holders of preferred shares have been
paid. A Grantee may lose some or all of his or her investment.
New Zealand law normally requires people who offer financial products to give
information to investors before they invest. This information is designed to
help investors to make an informed decision. The usual rules do not apply to
this offer because it is made under an employee share scheme. As a result, the
Grantee may not be given all the information usually required. The Grantee will
also have fewer other legal protections for this investment.
The Grantee should ask questions, read all documents carefully, and seek
independent financial advice before committing himself or herself.
In addition, the Grantee is hereby notified that the documents listed below are
available for review on the Company’s “Investor Relations” website at
http://ir.guidewire.com/ and the Grantee’s online E*TRADE account:
(i) this Award Agreement which together with the Plan sets forth the terms and
conditions of participation in the Plan;
(ii) a copy of the Company’s most recent annual report (i.e., Form 10-K);
(iii)  a copy of the Company’s most recent published financial statements;
(iv) a copy of the Plan; and
(v) a copy of the Plan Prospectus.
A copy of the above documents will be sent to the Grantee free of charge on
written request to stock-admin@guidewire.com.
As noted above, the Grantee is advised to carefully read the materials provided
before making a decision whether to participate in the Plan. The Grantee is also
encouraged to contact his or her tax advisor for specific information concerning
the Grantee’s personal tax situation with regard to Plan participation.

UNITED KINGDOM
TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Restricted Stock Units Payable in Shares Only. Notwithstanding any discretion in
Section 9(a) of the Plan or anything contrary in the Agreement, due to tax
considerations in the United Kingdom, the Award does not provide any right for
the Grantee to receive a cash payment, and the Restricted Stock Units are
payable in Shares only.
Joint Election for Transfer of Liability for Employer National Insurance
Contributions. As a condition of participation in the Plan and settlement of
this Award upon vesting, the Grantee agrees to accept any liability for
secondary Class 1 National Insurance contributions that may be payable by the
Company, the Employer, or a Parent, Subsidiary or affiliate in connection with
the Restricted Stock Units and any event giving rise to Tax-Related Items (the
“Employer NICs”). Without prejudice to the foregoing, the Grantee agrees to
execute a joint election with the Company, the form of such joint election (the
“Joint Election”) having been approved formally by Her Majesty’s Revenue and
Customs (“HMRC”), and any other required consent or election. The Grantee
further agrees to execute such other joint elections as may be required between
the Grantee and any successor to the Company, the Employer, and/or any
Subsidiary or affiliate. The Grantee further agrees that the Company, the
Employer, and/or any Parent, Subsidiary or affiliate may collect the Employer
NICs from the Grantee by any of the means set forth in Section 6 of the
Agreement.
If the Grantee does not enter into a Joint Election prior to vesting of the
Award, the Award shall not be settled unless and until he or she enters into a
Joint Election, and no Shares will be issued to the Grantee under the Plan,
without any liability to the Company, the Employer, or any Parent, Subsidiary or
affiliate.
Tax Withholding. The following provision supplements Section 6 of the Agreement:
The Grantee agrees that, if he or she does not pay or the Company or the
Employer does not withhold from the Grantee the full amount of the income tax
due within ninety (90) days of the end of the tax year during which the event
giving rise to the tax liability took place or such other period specified in
Section 222(1)(c) of the U.K. Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003 (the
“Due Date”), the amount of any uncollected tax shall constitute a loan owed by
the Grantee to the Company or the Employer, effective as of the Due Date. The
Grantee agrees that the loan will bear interest at the official HMRC rate and
immediately will be due and repayable by the Grantee, and the Company, the
Employer, or any Parent, Subsidiary or affiliate may recover it at any time
thereafter by any of the means referred to in Section 6 of the Agreement. The
Grantee also authorizes the Company to delay the issuance of any Shares to the
Grantee unless and until the loan is repaid in full.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Grantee is an executive officer or
director within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act, the Grantee
shall not be eligible for a loan to

cover the income tax due as described above. In the event that the Grantee is an
executive officer or director and the income tax due is not collected by the Due
Date, the amount of any uncollected tax may constitute a benefit to the Grantee
on which additional income tax and National Insurance contributions may be
payable. The Grantee acknowledges that the Company or the Employer may recover
any such additional income tax and National Insurance contributions at any time
thereafter by any of the means referred to in Section 6 of the Agreement. The
Grantee also will be responsible for reporting any income tax due on this
additional benefit directly to HMRC under the self-assessment regime.
