This First Amendment to Change in Control Agreement (“First Amendment”) is made
this 15 day of December, 2008 between Marcel Regnier (“Executive”) and Itron,
Inc. (“Company”).  The parties hereby agree as follows:
 
Whereas, Executive and Company entered into a Change in Control Agreement on
April 15, 2008 (“Agreement”) which provides certain benefits to Executive if
there is a “Change in Control” as defined in the Agreement; and
 
Whereas, Executive may also be entitled to certain termination benefits pursuant
to the laws of Belgium and/or France; and
 
Whereas, the parties wish to confirm that there will be no duplication of
termination or sever-ance payments or benefits.
 
Now, therefore, the parties agree as follows:
 
1.  
Offset.  If there is a Change in Control as defined in the Agreement and
Executive’s employment is terminated such that Executive would be eligible for
the termination payments and benefits described in Section 6 of the Agreement,
any severance or termination payments and benefits received by Executive
pursuant to (i) Belgium or French law, or (ii) pursuant to any other agreement
Executive has with the Company or any direct or indirect subsidiary of the
Company, shall be offset against any benefits that may be payable to the
Executive pursuant to the Agreement.

 
2.  
 Ratification.  Except as set forth in this First Amendment, all other terms and
conditions of the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

 
In witness whereof, the parties have executed and entered into this First
Amendment as of the date set forth above.
