Award No.           
          You (the “Participant”) are hereby awarded Restricted Share Units
subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Long Term Award Agreement
(“Award”) and in the UTi Worldwide Inc. Amended and Restated 2004 Long-Term
Incentive Plan (“Plan”), which is attached hereto as Exhibit A. A summary of the
Plan appears in its Prospectus, which is attached as Exhibit B. You should
carefully review these documents, and consult with your personal legal and
financial advisors, in order to assure that you fully understand the terms,
conditions, and financial implications of this Award.
          By executing this Award, you agree to be bound by all of the Plan’s
terms and conditions as if they had been set out verbatim in this Award. In
addition, you recognize and agree that all determinations, interpretations, or
other actions respecting the Plan and this Award will be made by the Board of
Directors of UTi Worldwide Inc. (“Board”) or any Committee appointed by the
Board to administer the Plan, and shall be final, conclusive and binding on all
parties, including you and your successors in interest. Capitalized terms are
defined in the Plan or in this Award.
     1. Specific Terms. This Award of Restricted Share Units shall have, and be
interpreted according to, the following terms, subject to the provisions of the
Plan in all instances:

             
Name of Participant
           
 
           
Number of Restricted Share Units Subject to Award
           
 
           
Grant Date of Award
           
 
            Service Requirements
for Vesting   Subject to acceleration pursuant to Section 2 or Section 3 below
and to forfeiture pursuant to Section 5 below, your rights under this Award

vested in the unvested Shares subject to this Award (and will forfeit all other
rights under this Award). The number of

Long Term Award Agreement
Providing for Withholding of Vested Shares to Satisfy Tax Liabilities
UTi Worldwide Inc.
Amended and Restated 2004 Long-Term Incentive Plan
Page 2
unvested Shares in which your interest will vest will be equal to the lesser of
(a) the total number of unvested Shares subject to this Award, or (b) 20% of the
total number of Shares subject to this Award.
     3. Accelerated Vesting upon Termination without Cause or upon a Change in
Control.
     (a) In the event your employment is terminated without Cause at any time,
you will become partially vested in the unvested Shares subject to this Award
(and will forfeit all other rights under this Award). The number of unvested
Shares in which your interest will vest will be equal to the lesser of (a) the
total number of unvested Shares subject to this Award, or (b) 20% of the total
number of Shares subject to this Award. For purposes of this Section 3(a), if
you have entered into an employment agreement with the Company (which for
purposes of Section 3(a) and Section 3(b) of this Award includes subsidiaries of
the Company) that contains a definition of termination for “Cause”, then the
term “Cause” for purposes of this Award shall have the same meaning set forth in
your employment agreement with the Company. If you have not entered into such an
agreement, the term “Cause” in this Award shall have the meaning set forth in
the Plan.
     (b) In the event you experience an Involuntary Termination in connection
with, or within 12 months following consummation of, a Change in Control, you
will become fully vested in all of the Shares subject to this Award. If you have
entered into an employment agreement with the Company and such employment
agreement entitles you to receive additional severance payments upon a
termination by you of your employment for “Good Reason” (as defined in such
employment agreement) following a Change in Control, then for purposes of this
Section 3(b) the term “Involuntary Termination” shall be deemed to include your
ability to terminate for “Good Reason” as defined in your employment agreement.
To the extent there is a conflict between any of the provisions contained in the
definition of the term “Good Reason” in your employment agreement and the term
“Involuntary Termination” as defined in the Plan, then the provisions in the
definition of the term “Good Reason” contained in your employment agreement
shall prevail and the definition of the term “Involuntary Termination” for
purposes of this Award shall be deemed to be modified and construed so that such
provisions shall be consistent with the prevailing provisions found in the term
“Good Reason” in your employment agreement. If you have not entered into an
employment agreement with the Company that entitles you to receive additional
severance payments upon a termination by you of your employment for “Good
Reason” following a Change in Control, then the term “Involuntary Termination”
for purposes of this Award shall have the meaning set forth in the Plan. The
provisions of this Section 3(b) shall supersede any contrary or inconsistent
provisions set forth in Section 13(c) of the Plan.
     4. Satisfaction of Vesting Restrictions. No Shares will be issued before
you complete the requirements that are necessary for you to vest in the Shares
underlying your Restricted Share Units. As soon as practicable after the date on
which your Award vests in whole or in part, but no later than the 15th day of
the third month following the calendar year in which vesting occurs, the Company
will issue to you or your duly-authorized transferee, free from vesting
restrictions (but subject to such legends as the Company determines to be
appropriate), one Share for each vested Restricted Share Unit, less the number
of Shares cancelled by the Company in connection with the payment of withholding
taxes as provided for in Section 18 below. Fractional

shares will not be issued, and cash will be paid in lieu thereof. Certificates
shall not be delivered to you unless you have made arrangements satisfactory to
the Committee to satisfy tax-withholding obligations.
     5. Failure of Vesting Restrictions. By executing this Award, you
acknowledge and agree that if your Continuous Service terminates prior to the
date that you satisfy the vesting requirements for unvested Shares set forth in
Section 1 of this Award (and subject to any accelerated vesting pursuant to
Sections 2 or 3 above), you will irrevocably forfeit any and all rights to
unvested Shares under this Award, and this Award with respect to such unvested
Shares will immediately become null, void, and unenforceable.
     6. Dividends. When Shares are issued to you or your duly-authorized
transferee pursuant to the vesting of the Shares underlying your Restricted
Share Units you or your duly-authorized transferee shall also be entitled to
receive, with respect to each Share issued, the “Dividend Equivalents”
applicable to such Share. The term “Dividend Equivalents” shall mean, with
respect to each Share so issued and with respect to each Share cancelled by the
Company in connection with the payment of withholding taxes as provided in
Section 18 below, an amount equal to any cash dividends (plus simple interest at
a rate of five percent per annum, or such other reasonable rate as the Committee
may determine) and a number of Shares equal to any stock dividends, which were
declared and paid to the holders of Shares between the Grant Date and the date
such Share is issued or cancelled.
     7. Voting. With respect to the Shares to be issued or held by you pursuant
to this Award, you may not exercise voting rights until you become the record
owner of the Shares.
     8. Investment Purposes. By executing this Award, you represent and warrant
to the Company that any Shares issued to you pursuant to this Award will be for
investment for your own account and not with a view to, for resale in connection
with, or with an intent of participating directly or indirectly in, any
distribution of such Shares within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended.
     9. Section 83(b) Election Notice. If you provide the Company with prior
written notice of your intention to make an election under Section 83(b) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, with respect to the Shares underlying
your Restricted Share Units (a “Section 83(b) election”), the Committee shall
convert your Restricted Share Units into Restricted Shares, on a one-for-one
basis, pursuant to the terms of (and in full satisfaction of) this Award. You
agree to provide a copy of such election to the Company within 10 days after
filing that election with the Internal Revenue Service. Exhibit C contains a
suggested form of Section 83(b) election. If you make a Section 83(b) election,
then you will be responsible for the satisfaction of all taxes that arise as a
result of the election and you acknowledge that none of your Shares subject to
this Award have vested as of the time of such Section 83(b) election. Any
Restricted Shares issued to you pursuant to this Section 9 shall bear such
legends as the Company determines to be appropriate until all vesting
restrictions lapse and replacement certificates for unrestricted Shares are
issued to you pursuant to Section 4 of this Award.

     10. Deferral Election. At any time within the thirty-day period following
the Grant Date of this Award, you may irrevocably elect to defer the receipt of
all or a percentage of the Shares that would otherwise be issued to you on the
vesting of this Award, provided that any such election is made at least twelve
months in advance of the date on which you first satisfy the vesting
requirements set forth in Section 1 of this Award. A copy of the form which you
may use to make a deferral election is attached hereto as Exhibit D.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Shares which have been subject to a Section 83(b)
election are not eligible for deferral.
     11. Not a Contract of Employment. By executing this Award, you acknowledge
and agree that (i) any person who is terminated before full vesting of an award,
such as the one granted to you by this Award, could claim that he or she was
terminated to preclude vesting; (ii) you promise never to make such a claim;
(iii) nothing in this Award or the Plan confers on you any right to continue an
employment, service or consulting relationship with the Company, nor shall it
affect in any way your right or the Company’s right to terminate your
employment, service, or consulting relationship at any time, with or without
Cause; and (iv) the Company would not have granted this Award to you but for
these acknowledgements and agreements.
     12. Severability. Subject to one exception, every provision of this Award
and the Plan is intended to be severable, and if any provision of the Plan or
this Award is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid and
unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall continue to be fully effective.
The only exception is that this Award shall be unenforceable if any provision of
Section 11 is illegal, invalid, or unenforceable.
     13. Notices. Any notice or communication required or permitted by any
provision of this Award to be given to you shall be in writing and shall be
delivered personally or sent by certified mail, return receipt requested,
addressed to you at the last address that the Company had for you on its
records. Each party may, from time to time, by notice to the other party hereto,
specify a new address for delivery of notices relating to this Award. Any such
notice shall be deemed to be given as of the date such notice is personally
delivered or properly mailed.
     14. Binding Effect. Every provision of this Award shall be binding on and
inure to the benefit the parties’ respective heirs, legatees, legal
representatives, successors, transferees, and assigns.
     15. Headings. Headings shall be ignored in interpreting this Award.
     16. Counterparts. This Award may be executed by the parties hereto in
separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an
original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute the same
instrument.
     17. Plan Governs. By signing this Award, you acknowledge that you have
received a copy of the Plan and that your Award is subject to all the provisions
contained in the Plan, the provisions of which are made a part of this Award and
your Award is subject to all interpretations, amendments, rules and regulations
which from time to time may be promulgated and adopted pursuant to the Plan. In
the event of a conflict between the provisions of this Award and those of the
Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall control. In addition, you recognize and
agree that all

determinations, interpretations or other actions respecting the Plan and this
Award may be made by the Board or the Committee in their sole and absolute
discretion, and that such determinations, interpretations or other actions are
(unless arbitrary and capricious) final, conclusive and binding upon all
parties, including you, your heirs, and representatives.
     18. Taxes. By signing this Award, you acknowledge that you shall be solely
responsible for the satisfaction of any federal, state, province or local taxes
that may arise with respect to this Award (including if you are subject to
taxation in the United States, any taxes arising under Sections 409A or 4999 of
the Code, except to the extent otherwise specifically provided in a written
agreement with the Company). If the Company is obligated to withhold an amount
on account of any federal, state, province or local tax imposed as a result of
the grant of the Restricted Share Units or as a result of the issuance of the
underlying Shares (the date upon which the Company becomes so obligated shall be
referred to herein as the “Withholding Date”), then you shall pay to the Company
the minimum aggregate amount that the Company is obligated to withhold as such
amount shall be determined by the Company in its discretion (the “Minimum
Withholding Liability”), which payment shall be made by the automatic
cancellation by the Company of a number of vested Shares subject to this Award,
the aggregate Fair Market Value of which is equal to the Minimum Withholding
Liability (such cancelled vested Shares to be valued on the basis of the
aggregate Fair Market Value thereof on the Withholding Date, plus the value on
the Withholding Date of the Dividend Equivalents associated with such Shares);
provided that the number of vested Shares so cancelled will be rounded up to the
nearest whole Share sufficient to satisfy the Minimum Withholding Liability,
with cash being paid to you in an amount equal to the amount by which the Fair
Market Value of such cancelled Shares and associated Dividend Equivalents
exceeds the Minimum Withholding Liability. If the Fair Market Value of the
vested Shares subject to this Award is less than the Minimum Withholding
Liability, then you shall pay to the Company in cash the difference between the
Minimum Withholding Liability and the Fair Market Value of the vested Shares
subject to this Award, if any. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event you
make a Section 83(b) election, then you shall promptly pay in cash the Minimum
Withholding Liability to the Company. Neither the Company nor the Committee
shall have any obligation whatsoever to pay such taxes, to prevent you from
incurring them, or to mitigate or protect you from any such tax liabilities.
Nevertheless, if your payments or benefits pursuant to Section 9 of the Plan and
Section 10 of this Award as a result of your termination of Continuous Service
constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of
Section 409A, payment of such amounts shall not commence until you incur a
Separation from Service. If at the time of your Separation from Service, you are
a “specified employee” (under Code Section 409A), any amount that constitutes
“nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Code Section 409A
that becomes payable to you on account of your Separation from Service
(including any amounts payable pursuant to the preceding sentence) will not be
paid until after the end of the sixth calendar month beginning after your
Separation from Service (the “409A Suspension Period”). Within 14 calendar days
after the end of the 409A Suspension Period, you shall be paid a lump sum
payment in cash equal to any payments delayed because of the preceding sentence,
together with interest on them for the period of delay at a rate not less than
the average prime interest rate published in the Wall Street Journal on any day
chosen by the Board during that period. Thereafter, you shall receive any
remaining benefits as if there had not been an earlier delay.
