 SO 2015 Subscription Plan 
  

I – DEFINITION OF STOCK OPTION SUBSCRIPTION PLAN  

In order to reward its employees and those of its subsidiaries, Sequans Communications wishes to set up a system enabling them to share in its growth. 

A stock option subscription plan is a mechanism by which a company offer its employees and/or company officers, as well as the employees of its subsidiaries
within the meaning of Article L.225-180 of the French Commercial code, the possibility of subscribing for new shares during a certain period, at a price set on the date the Options are issued, and that remains fixed during the entire period. 

In this way, the beneficiaries participate in their company’s performance through the changes in share value, even before they become shareholders by
exercising the options to subscribe for shares (hereinafter “Options”). 
 Furthermore, the financial benefit obtained by exercising the Options
and by a subsequent sale of the shares is subject to a specific tax treatment. 
 II – LEGAL FRAMEWORK FOR THE PLAN 

This mechanism is governed, in particular, by articles L.225-177 and following of the French Code de commerce. 

In a decision taken on 29 June 2015, a combined general shareholders’ meeting voted in favour of the principle of issuing Options likely to give
rise to a maximum of 1,350,000 new ordinary shares with a unitary par value of EUR 0.02. 
 This combined general shareholders’ meeting has defined the
conditions of setting of the subscription price for the security likely to be issued upon exercise of each Option and decided that this price would be set by the Board of Directors of the Company, at the fair market value as applicable at the date
of allocation of the Option, pursuant to objective methods applicable in the field of assessment of shares (including, as the case may be, the reference to the market price of Company listed shares), and if required, with the assistance of
independent experts. 
 In addition, this decision granted the Board of Directors the power to issue these Options, on one or more occasions, including the
authority to determine the beneficiaries and the number of Options to be issued, and the elimination of shareholders’ pre-emptive subscription rights. Furthermore, the Board of Directors was granted the power to increase share capital by a
maximum amount equal to the total number of Options issued, to record the successive increases in share capital as a result of the exercise of the Options, and to carry out all formalities required as a result thereof. 

Therefore and pursuant to the aforesaid grant of authority, at a meeting held on 30 June 2015, the Board of Directors decided the procedures applicable
to this stock and established the present SO 2015 Subscription Plan (hereafter the “2015 Plan” or the “Plan”), in conformity with the principles set by the combined general shareholders’ meeting and aforesaid statutory
provisions.

 SO 2015 Subscription Plan 
  

III – DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN 
 The
list of the 2015 Plan’s beneficiaries (hereinafter “Beneficiaries”) shall be approved by the Company’s Board of Directors. 

III-1. Issuing the Options 
 The Options are issued
free of charge to each Beneficiary. 
 No person holding more than 10% of Sequans Communications’ share capital shall be issued any Options. 

The number of Options issued to each Beneficiary, as well as the subscription price for the share to be issued pursuant to exercising an Option (as defined
under section III-4 below) shall be indicated in the Individual Letter of Notification sent to him/her by the Chairman or his delegate and which is deemed to be an exhibit of this Plan. 

Exercising an Option entitles the Beneficiary to subscribe for one new ordinary share with a par value of EUR 0.02 (hereafter a “New Share”).

 This number of shares cannot be modified during the Options’ period of validity, except in the event of an adjustment in the subscription price in
accordance with the requirements provided by law (see section III-4. hereinafter). 
 The Beneficiary will receive a Letter of Notification via email from
the administrator of Sequans Communications equity plans informing him/her that Options have been issued to him/her. The Beneficiary undertakes to acknowledge the Letter of Notification as directed in the Letter. 

FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THIS FORMALITY WITHIN
THE APPLICABLE PERIOD SHALL RENDER THE OPTIONS ISSUED IMMEDIATELY AND AUTOMATICALLY
VOID. 
 A copy of this Plan will be made available on the administrator’s on-line portal and the Company’s intranet site. 

III-2. Features and period of validity of the Options 

Options are granted for a period of 10 years as from the time they are issued by the Board of Directors. 

As a result of issuing the Options, the pre-emptive right of shareholders to subscribe for the new shares to be issued as said Options are exercised will be
eliminated in favour of the Beneficiaries. 
 Rights obtained as the result of the Options cannot be transferred until the Options have been exercised. 

Options must be exercised within the aforementioned maximum period of 10 years, any Option not exercised before the expiry of such period shall
automatically become null and void. 
 Furthermore, the Beneficiary must comply with the following vesting schedule: 

 

	(i)	first issue 

  

	 	•	 	The Beneficiary may exercise 25% of the Options issued to him/her after the expiry of a period of 12 months following the date he/she joins Sequans Communications or one of its subsidiaries; 


  
 - 4/8 - 








 SO 2015 Subscription Plan 
  

 

	 	•	 	Thereafter, the Beneficiary may exercise the remainder of his/her Options at the rate of 1/36th per month for the period between the 13th and 48th month following the date he/she joins Sequans Communications or one of its subsidiaries. 


 

	(i)	further issue(s) 

  

	 	•	 	The Beneficiary may exercise 25% of the Options issued to him/her after the expiry of a period of 12 months following the date of such issue ; 


 

	 	•	 	Thereafter, the Beneficiary may exercise the remainder of his/her Options at the rate of 1/36th per month for the period between the 13th and 48th month following the date of the aforesaid issue. 


Notwithstanding the foregoing, should the duties of the Beneficiary with Sequans Communications or one of its subsidiaries, be suspended on the request
of said Beneficiary for a given period, the vesting process and its schedule described above shall be suspended likewise until the end of the aforesaid period. 

In the event that a third party acquires a 100% interest in Sequans Communications, and in no other case, a Beneficiary who is subsequently dismissed
other than for misconduct or gross negligence shall have the right to exercise all of his/her Options within a period of 90 days following the date of said dismissal, notwithstanding the schedule set out above for exercising his/her Options. 

In the event that a company ceases to be a subsidiary of Sequans Communications, all Options held by the employees of such subsidiary, and that have not been
exercised before such time, shall automatically and immediately become null and void. 
 III-3. Cessation of the Beneficiary’s duties with
Sequans Communications or one of its subsidiaries 
 In the event that the Beneficiary’s duties with Sequans Communications or one of its
subsidiaries, whether as an employee or company officer, cease: 
  

	 	•	 	said Beneficiary shall lose all rights with regard to Options that are not yet exercisable on the date that his/her duties cease in accordance with the schedule for exercising the Options set out in Article III-2.
hereinabove. 

 However, the Beneficiary retains the right to exercise Options that are exercisable and that have not yet been exercised,
provided that the Beneficiary exercises his/her Options within a period of ninety (90) days following the actual termination of his/her duties. 

Notwithstanding the above provisions, should the loss of the status as an employee during the Vesting Period be due to one of the following reasons, the
Options would be treated as follows: 
  

	 	•	 	Retirement: A Beneficiary whose date of retirement is effective at least one year after the allotment of Options, shall enjoy an accelerated vesting under which all such Options will become immediately
exercisable. Such Beneficiary shall have a period of ninety (90) days to exercise the Options, from the effective date of retirement. Such Options shall remain subject to the other conditions of this Plan. 


 

	 	•	 	 Death: the successors or beneficiaries of a Beneficiary shall have a period of six (6) months




  
 - 5/8 - 








 SO 2015 Subscription Plan 
  

	 	to exercise the Options, from the date of death of said Beneficiary; after the expiry of this period, the successors or beneficiaries shall definitely lose the right to exercise unexercised Options. In any case, no exercise
shall take place after the expiration of Options. 

  

	 	•	 	2nd and 3rd category disability, within the meaning of article L.341-4 of the French Social Security Code - or an equivalent foreign social security regime - Beneficiaries is entitled to the right to
exercise their Options which are exercisable, but they will remain subject to the other conditions of this Plan. 

 III-4. Setting the
subscription price for shares obtained by exercising the Options 
 The subscription price for New Shares to be issued pursuant to an exercise of the
Options is set at the closing price of the Sequans Communications share (ADS) listed on the NYSE, on the effective date of allotment of Options. 
 This
price is mentioned in the Notification Letter, price which may not be changed during the Options’ period of validity, except in the event of adjustments in accordance with statutory and regulatory requirements. 

III-5. Maintaining the rights of Option holders during the exercise period 

During the entire period of validity of the Options, the Company shall be entitled to proceed with a capital write-off or reduction, a change to the
appropriation of profits, a free allotment of shares, a capitalization of reserves, profits or share premiums, a distribution of reserves or any issue of capital securities or securities giving entitlement to an allotment of capital securities
conferring a subscription right reserved for shareholders, provided that the Company accordingly take the necessary measures in compliance with applicable legal and/or regulatory provisions. 

IV – REQUIREMENTS AND PROCEDURES FOR EXERCISING OPTIONS 

IV-1. Suspension of the rights to exercise the Options 

If necessary, the Board of Directors may suspend the right to exercise the Options. In particular, a suspension may be ordered whenever a transaction
concerning Sequans Communications’ share capital requires knowing in advance the exact number of shares that make up share capital or in the event that one of the financial transactions requiring an adjustment is carried out. 

In such case, Sequans Communications shall inform the Beneficiaries of the Options, indicating the date of the suspension and the date on which the right to
exercise Options will be re-established. Such suspension may not exceed 3 months. 
 If the right to exercise an Option expires during a period in which
rights are suspended, the period for exercising the Option shall be extended by 3 months. 
 IV-2. Procedures and conditions for exercising the
Options 
 All requests for exercising Options, documented by the signature of a subscription certificate specific to the SO 2015 Plan, shall be sent
to Sequans Communications, and shall be accompanied by a cheque made out to the Company’s order in an amount corresponding to the number of New Shares subscribed, considering that such shares must be fully paid up in cash at the time of
subscription, except in case of settlement of the subscription price by way of a set-off with a debt. If the Beneficiary has been registered in the on-line equity management system established by the Company, exercise of Options shall take place in
accordance with the process manual provided to the Beneficiary and/or available from the Company’s human resources department. 

  
 - 6/8 - 








 SO 2015 Subscription Plan 
  

Failure to fully pay the exercise price renders the subscription null and void. 

V – FEATURES OF SHARES SUBSCRIBED 

V-1. Delivery and form of shares 
 New Shares
acquired by exercising Options are registered in the books of Sequans Communications as registered shares, which meets the statutory requirements for benefiting from the applicable favourable tax treatment. 

V-2. Rights - Availability 
 New Shares (ordinary
shares), shall be subject to all provisions of the memorandum and articles of association and shall enjoy all rights pertaining to shares of such class as from the date the increase in share capital is completed. 

These New Shares shall be immediately transferable. 
 Since
these shares are listed for trading on the New York Stock Exchange and in order to avoid any insider trading risk, Beneficiaries shall comply with the Insider Trading Compliance Policy of the Company, available on the Company’s intranet and
website, and/or from the human resources department. 
 VI – TAX PROVISIONS 

The presentation of tax treatment is provided for informational purposes only. It corresponds to the French legislation in effect as of the date this
plan was approved by the Board of Directors. 
 The Beneficiary shall be responsible for learning about any amendments to the applicable tax treatment. 

VI-1. THE TAX PROVISIONS CURRENTLY APPLICABLE TO
BENEFICIARIES WHO ARE EMPLOYEES OF SEQUANS COMMUNICATIONS AND WHO ARE DOMICILED
IN FRANCE, ARE EXPLAINED BELOW. 
 1. A Beneficiary who has exercised
Options and subscribed for shares of Sequans Communications realizes a gain equal to the difference between the value of the shares on the date the Option is exercised and the subscription price of the shares (“Gain on Exercise”). 

Gain on Exercise is subject to 
  

	 	•	 	an individual income tax (impôt sur le revenu) : progressive rate up to 45% 

  

	 	•	 	social security contributions (prélèvements sociaux : CSG, CRDS...) : 8% (5.1% being deductible for income tax purposes) 


 

	 	•	 	an employee specific contribution (contribution salariale spécifique) : 10% 

  

	 	•	 	as the case may be, an exceptional contribution on high income (contribution exceptionnelle sur les hauts revenus) : progressive rate up to 4% 


  
 - 7/8 - 








 SO 2015 Subscription Plan 
  

Gain on Exercise is exempt from standard social security contributions provided that Sequans Communications - or its affiliates as the case may be - complies
with the relevant filing obligations. 
 2. The capital gain realised at the time of sale is equal to the difference between the sale
price of the share and the value of such share on the date the Option is exercised (“Gain on sale”). Gain on Sale is taxed from the first Euro in accordance with the tax treatment of capital gains realised on the sale of securities. 

The Gain on Sale is therefore subject to 
  

	 	•	 	an individual income tax (impôt sur le revenu) : progressive rate up to 45%(*) 

  

	 	•	 	social security contributions (prélèvements sociaux : CSG, CRDS...) : 15.5 % (5.1% being deductible for income tax purposes) 


 

	 	•	 	as the case may be, an exceptional contribution on high income (contribution exceptionnelle sur les hauts revenus) : progressive rate up to 4% 


(*) : The Holder will also enjoy a complementary abatement of 
  

	 	•	 	50% if he holds the shares for an additional period of 2 years from the date of exercise 

  

	 	•	 	65% if he holds the shares for an additional period of 8 years from the date of exercise 

 Note: In
addition, in order to benefit from this specific tax treatment, the Beneficiary must attach to his/her income tax return for the year in which the Options are exercised a certificate that will be provided to him/her by the Company. 

3. The tax information contained in this section VI-1 is likely to change in accordance with the applicable statutory and regulatory provisions. Sequans
Communications and its subsidiaries shall have no obligation to provide advice and/or assistance in this regard. 
 VI-2. TAX
PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO BENEFICIARIES DOMICILED ABROAD. 

Beneficiaries domiciled abroad are solely responsible for: 
  

	 	•	 	Determining the tax provisions applicable to gains resulting from (i) holding the Options, (ii) holding the shares issued as a result of exercising the Options, and (iii) the sale of such shares;


  

	 	•	 	Paying all taxes and contributions due as a result. 

 However, Beneficiaries domiciled abroad might be subject
to a French withholding Tax in respect of the Gain on Exercise, to the extent of days worked in France over the vesting period of their Options. 

Sequans Communications and its subsidiaries shall have no obligation to provide advice and/or assistance in this regard.
