 PAREXEL International Corporation 
 RESTRICTED STOCK
AGREEMENT 
 THIS AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is entered into as of [INSERT DATE] (the “Award
Date”) by and between PAREXEL International Corporation, a Massachusetts corporation (the “Company”) and
                    , a member of the Board of Directors of the Company, hereinafter referred to as the “Participant.” 

WHEREAS, the Company has adopted the PAREXEL International Corporation 2005 Stock Incentive Plan (as it may be amended from time to time,
the “Plan”), the terms of which are hereby incorporated by reference and made a part of this Agreement; and 
 WHEREAS, Section 7 of the Plan provides for the issuance of awards of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), subject to certain restrictions (“Restricted Stock”);
and 
 WHEREAS, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the
“Board”) and the full Board have determined that it would be to the advantage and in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders to award shares of Restricted Stock to the Participant pursuant to the terms and conditions set
forth herein; and 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained and other good and valuable
consideration, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto do hereby agree as follows: 
 ARTICLE I

 DEFINITIONS 
 1.1 In General. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Plan.
 1.2 “Restrictions” shall mean the restrictions on sale or other transfer set forth in Section 4.2 and the exposure to forfeiture set forth in Section 3.1. 
 ARTICLE II 
 RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD

 2.1 Award of Restricted Stock. In consideration of the Participant’s services on the Board, in exchange for the promises
contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration which the Board has determined exceeds the aggregate par value of the shares of Common Stock subject to the Award (as defined below), as of the Award Date, the Company issues to the
Participant the number of shares of Restricted Stock set forth on the signature page hereof (the “Award”). 
 2.2
Award Subject to Plan. The Award granted hereunder is subject to the terms and provisions of the Plan, including without limitation Section 10 thereof. 
 ARTICLE III 
 RESTRICTIONS 
 3.1 Forfeiture. Except as otherwise provided by Section 3.2(b) or (c) below, any portion of an Award that is not vested at the time
the Participant ceases to serve on the Board for any reason shall thereupon be forfeited immediately and without further action by the Company.  
 3.2 Vesting and Lapse of Restrictions.
 (a) Subject to
Section 3.1, the Award shall vest in full on [INSERT DATE] (the “Vesting Date”) if the Participant is serving on the Board on such date. 
 (b) If the Participant dies or becomes permanently and totally disabled (within the meaning of Section 22(e)(3) of the Code) prior to the Vesting Date and while the Participant is serving on the
Board, the Award shall vest in full upon the date of the Participant’s death or disability. 







 (c) If, prior to the Vesting Date, the Participant ceases to serve on the Board for any
reason other than removal for cause, a portion of the Award shall vest on the last day of Board service in an amount equal to the product of (a) the total number of shares of Restricted Stock subject to the Award and (b) the quotient of
(i) the number of days elapsed between [INSERT GRANT DATE] and the date the Participant’s service on the Board ended, divided by (ii) 1,096 (rounded down to the nearest whole share). All remaining unvested shares shall thereupon be
forfeited immediately and without further action by the Company. 
 3.3 Legend. Until such time as Restrictions have lapsed, the
Company may, at any time, place legends referencing the Restrictions and any applicable federal and/or state securities laws restrictions on certificates representing shares of Restricted Stock issued pursuant to this Agreement. The legend may
include the following: 
 “THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS SET FORTH IN THE AWARD
AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CORPORATION AND THE REGISTERED HOLDER, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE CORPORATION.” 
 “THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF IN THE ABSENCE OF AN
EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER SUCH ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION TO THE EFFECT THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.” 
 3.4 Payment of Taxes; Issuance of Shares. 
 (a) Participant
understands, acknowledges and agrees that the value of the Restricted Stock is subject to state and federal income taxes and certain rules which require the Company to withhold amounts necessary to pay these taxes. If the Company in its
discretion determines that it is obligated to withhold any tax in connection with the vesting or transfer of the Award or any shares of the Restricted Stock, or the making of a distribution or other payment with respect to the Restricted Stock,
participant hereby authorizes the Company to, in the Company’s discretion, (i) reduce the number of shares of Restricted Stock (or other property) delivered to Participant at the time the restrictions lapse by the number of shares of
Restricted Stock (or other property) required to satisfy the tax withholding requirements (based on the fair market value of shares or other property at such time), or (ii) withhold from the Participant’s board fees the appropriate amount
of tax. Such shares of Restricted Stock withheld pursuant to clause (i) above shall be returned to the Company. Participant’s acknowledgement and acceptance of these tax withholding provisions are conditions precedent to the
right of Participant to receive the Restricted Stock under the Plan and this Agreement. 
 (b) In lieu of either the
reduction of shares or other property delivered or the withholding of board fees described in paragraph (a) above, Participant may pay to the Company the amount of tax required to be withheld in cash, by check or in other form satisfactory to
the Company. Such payment must be made by the date on which the Restrictions lapse or such later date as is established by the Company (not to exceed 15 days after the date on which the Restrictions lapse). 
 (c) The Shares will be released to the Participant when vested and the applicable withholding obligations have been satisfied.

 3.5. Certain Changes in Capitalization and Reorganization Events. Section 9 of the Plan shall govern the treatment of the
Award in the event of certain Changes in Capitalization and Reorganization Events. 
 3.6 Section 83(b) Election. Participant
understands that Section 83(a) of the Code taxes as ordinary income the difference between the amount, if any, paid for the shares of Common Stock and the Fair Market Value of such shares at the time the Restrictions on such shares
lapse. Participant understands that, notwithstanding the preceding sentence, Participant may elect to be taxed at the time of the Award Date, rather that at the time the Restrictions lapse, by filing an election under Section 83(b) of the
Code (an “83(b) Election”) with the Internal Revenue Service within 30 days of the Award Date. In the event Participant files an 83(b) Election, Participant will recognize ordinary income in an amount equal to the difference between
the amount, if any, paid for the shares of Common Stock and the Fair Market Value of such shares as of the Award Date. Participant further understands that an additional copy of such 83(b) Election form should be filed with his or her federal income
tax return for the calendar year in which the

  

 2 








 
date of this Agreement falls. Participant acknowledges that the foregoing is only a summary of the effect of United States federal income taxation with respect to the award of Restricted
Stock hereunder, and does not purport to be complete. PARTICIPANT FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE COMPANY IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR FILING THE PARTICIPANT’S 83(b) ELECTION, AND THE COMPANY HAS DIRECTED PARTICIPANT TO SEEK INDEPENDENT ADVICE
REGARDING THE APPLICABLE PROVISIONS OF THE CODE, THE INCOME TAX LAWS OF ANY MUNICIPALITY, STATE OR FEDERAL GOVERNMENT OR FOREIGN COUNTRY IN WHICH PARTICIPANT MAY RESIDE, AND THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF PARTICIPANT’S DEATH. 
 ARTICLE IV 
 OTHER PROVISIONS 
 4.1 Stock Certificates. Stock certificates issued in respect of this Award shall be registered
in the name of the Participant and shall be deposited in escrow with the escrow agent appointed by the Company; provided, however, that in no event shall the Participant retain physical custody of any certificates representing unvested
Restricted Stock issued such Participant. The deposited certificates shall remain in escrow until all Restrictions lapse or have been removed. The Participant shall, upon the execution of this Agreement, execute Joint Escrow Instructions in the
form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit A. The Joint Escrow Instructions shall be delivered to escrow agent named therein. The Participant shall deliver to such escrow agent a stock assignment duly endorsed in blank, in the form attached
to this Agreement as Exhibit B, and hereby instructs the Company to deliver to such escrow agent, on behalf of the Participant, the certificate(s) evidencing the Restricted Stock issued hereunder. Such materials shall be held by such escrow
agent pursuant to the terms of such Joint Escrow Instructions. 
 4.2 Restricted Stock Not Transferable. Prior to vesting pursuant
to Section 3.2 above, no Restricted Stock or any interest or right therein or part thereof shall be liable for the debts, contracts or engagements of the Participant or his successors in interest or shall be subject to disposition by transfer,
alienation, anticipation, pledge, encumbrance, assignment or any other means whether such disposition be voluntary or involuntary or by operation of law by judgment, levy, attachment, garnishment or any other legal or equitable proceedings
(including bankruptcy), and any attempted disposition thereof shall be null and void and of no effect; provided, however, that this Section 4.2 shall not prevent transfers by will or by applicable laws of descent and distribution.

 4.3 Rights as Stockholder. No Participant shall have any rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares of Common Stock to be
distributed with respect to an Award until becoming the record holder of such shares. 
 4.4 Governing Law. The laws of the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts shall govern the interpretation, validity, administration, enforcement and performance of the terms of this Agreement regardless of the law that might be applied under principles of conflicts of laws. 
 4.5 Conformity to Securities Laws. The Participant acknowledges that the Plan and this Agreement are intended to conform to the extent necessary
with all provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and any and all regulations and rules promulgated thereunder by the Securities and Exchange
Commission, including without limitation Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Plan shall be administered, and the Awards are granted, only in such a manner as to conform to such laws, rules and
regulations. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Plan and this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such laws, rules and regulations. 
 4.6 Amendment, Suspension and Termination. The Awards may be wholly or partially amended or otherwise modified, suspended or terminated at any time or from time to time by the Board,
provided that, except as may otherwise be provided by the Plan, neither the amendment, suspension nor termination of this Agreement shall, without the consent of the Participant, alter or impair any rights or obligations under any Award.

 4.7 Notices. Notices required or permitted hereunder shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon
personal delivery or upon deposit in the United States mail by certified mail, with postage and fees prepaid, addressed to the Participant to his address shown in the Company records, and to the Company at its principal executive office. 

4.8 Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any paragraph or provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or
enforceability of any other paragraph or provision, and all other provisions shall remain in full force and effect. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be excessively broad, then such provision shall be reformed and construed by
limiting and reducing it so as to be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law. 
  

 3 








 4.9 No Obligation to Continue Business Relationship. Neither the Plan, this Agreement, nor the grant
of this Award imposes any obligation on the Company to continue to maintain a business relationship with the Participant. 
  

	4.10	Investment Representations. The Participant represents, warrants and covenants as follows: 

 (a) The Participant is purchasing the Shares for his own account for investment only, and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with,
any distribution of the Shares in violation of the Securities Act, or any rule or regulation under the Securities Act. 
 (b)
The Participant has had such opportunity as he has deemed adequate to obtain from representatives of the Company such information as is necessary to permit him to evaluate the merits and risks of his investment in the Company. 
 (c) The Participant has sufficient experience in business, financial and investment matters to be able to evaluate the risks involved in the
purchase of the Shares and to make an informed investment decision with respect to such purchase. 
 (d) The Participant can
afford a complete loss of the value of the Shares and is able to bear the economic risk of holding such Shares for an indefinite period. 
 (e) The Participant understands that (i) the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act and are “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144 under the
Securities Act; (ii) the Shares cannot be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from registration is then available; (iii) in any event, the exemption
from registration under Rule 144 will not be available for at least one year and even then will not be available unless a public market then exists for the Common Stock, adequate information concerning the Company is then available to the
public, and other terms and conditions of Rule 144 are complied with; and (iv) there is now no registration statement on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to any stock of the Company and the Company has no
obligation or current intention to register the Shares under the Securities Act. 
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Agreement has been executed and
delivered by the parties hereto.
