 EXHIBIT A 

TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT GRANT 
 1. Grant. The Company hereby grants to the individual named in the Notice of Grant attached as Part I of this Award Agreement (the “Participant”) under the Plan an Award of
Restricted Stock Units, subject to all of the terms and conditions in this Award Agreement and the Plan, which is incorporated herein by reference. Subject to Section 19 of the U.S. Plan, in the event of a conflict between the terms and
conditions of the Plan and the terms and conditions of this Award Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Plan will prevail. 
 2. Company’s Obligation to Pay. Each Restricted Stock Unit represents the right to receive a Share on the date it vests. Unless and until the Restricted Stock Units will have vested in the
manner set forth in Section 3, Participant will have no right to payment of any such Restricted Stock Units. Prior to actual payment of any vested Restricted Stock Units, such Restricted Stock Unit will represent an unsecured obligation of the
Company, payable (if at all) only from the general assets of the Company. Any Restricted Stock Units that vest in accordance with Sections 3 or 4 will be paid to Participant (or in the event of Participant’s death, to his or her estate) in
whole Shares, subject to Participant satisfying any applicable tax withholding obligations as set forth in Section 8. Subject to the provisions of Section 4, such vested Restricted Stock Units will be paid in Shares as soon as practicable
after vesting, but in each such case within the period ending no later than the date that is two and one-half (2 1/2) months from the end of the Company’s tax year that includes the vesting date. 
 3. Vesting Schedule. Except as provided in Section 4, and subject to Section 5, the Restricted Stock Units awarded by this Award Agreement will vest in accordance with the vesting
provisions set forth in the Notice of Grant. Restricted Stock Units scheduled to vest on a certain date or upon the occurrence of a certain condition will not vest in Participant in accordance with any of the provisions of this Award Agreement,
unless Participant will have been continuously a Service Provider from the Date of Grant until the date such vesting occurs. 

4. Administrator Discretion. The Administrator, in its discretion, may accelerate the vesting of the balance, or some lesser
portion of the balance, of the unvested Restricted Stock Units at any time, subject to the terms of the Plan. If so accelerated, such Restricted Stock Units will be considered as having vested as of the date specified by the Administrator.

 Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or this Award Agreement to the contrary, if the vesting of the balance, or some lesser
portion of the balance, of the Restricted Stock Units is accelerated in connection with Participant’s termination as a Service Provider (provided that such termination is a “separation from service” within the meaning of
Section 409A, as determined by the Company), other than due to death, and if (x) Participant is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A at the time of such termination as a Service Provider and
(y) the payment of such accelerated Restricted Stock Units will result in the imposition of additional tax under Section 409A if paid to Participant on or within the six (6) month period following Participant’s termination as a
Service Provider, then the payment of such accelerated Restricted Stock Units will not be made until the date six (6) months and one (1) day following the date of Participant’s termination as a Service Provider, unless the Participant
dies 

  
 -3-









 
following his or her termination as a Service Provider, in which case, the Restricted Stock Units will be paid in Shares to the Participant’s estate as soon as practicable following his or
her death. It is the intent of this Award Agreement to comply with the requirements of Section 409A so that none of the Restricted Stock Units provided under this Award Agreement or Shares issuable thereunder will be subject to the additional
tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities herein will be interpreted to so comply. For purposes of this Award Agreement, “Section 409A” means Section 409A of the Code, and any proposed, temporary or final Treasury
Regulations and Internal Revenue Service guidance thereunder, as each may be amended from time to time. 
 5. Trust. The
Award of Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder is intended to be subject to the capital gains route of section 102 of the ITO. As such, the Award and any Shares issued thereunder shall be held or controlled by the Trustee for the benefit of the
Participant, until the Participant chooses to sell them or release them from such holding or control of the Trustee. The Participant shall be able, at any time, to request the sale of the Shares or the release of the Shares from the holding or
control of the Trustee, subject to the terms of the Plan, this Award Agreement and any applicable law. Please refer to the Israel Plan for further details regarding the trust arrangement. Without derogating from the aforementioned, if the Shares are
sold or released from the holding or control of the Trustee before the lapse of the period of time required under Section 102 of the ITO or any other period of time determined by the Israeli Tax Authority (the “Holding
Period”), the sanctions under Section 102 shall apply to and be borne by the Participant. The Shares shall not be sold or released from the holding or control of the Trustee unless the Company, the Participant’s employer and
the Trustee are satisfied that the full amount of income tax, social insurance, health tax or other tax-related withholding due have been paid or will be paid in relation thereto. In the event that stock dividends or rights to purchase additional
shares (collectively, the “Additional Shares”) are issued in respect of the Award or related Shares, or as a result of an adjustment made pursuant the Plan, such Additional Shares shall be held or controlled by the Trustee
for the benefit of the Participant and shall be ruled by the same tax terms that apply to the respective Shares. 
 6.
Forfeiture upon Termination of Status as a Service Provider. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Award Agreement, the balance of the Restricted Stock Units that have not vested as of the time of Participant’s termination as a
Service Provider for any or no reason and Participant’s right to acquire any Shares hereunder will immediately terminate. 

7. Death of Participant. Any distribution or delivery to be made to Participant under this Award Agreement will, if Participant is
then deceased, be made to Participant’s designated beneficiary, or if no beneficiary survives Participant, the administrator or executor of Participant’s estate. Any such transferee must furnish the Company with (a) written notice of
his or her status as transferee, and (b) evidence satisfactory to the Company to establish the validity of the transfer and compliance with any laws or regulations pertaining to said transfer. 

8. Withholding of Taxes. Regardless of any action the Company or Participant’s employer (the
“Employer”) or the Trustee takes with respect to any or all Tax-Related Items, Participant acknowledges and agrees that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by Participant is and remains
Participant’s responsibility and may exceed the amount 

  
 -4-









 
actually withheld by the Company or the Employer or the Trustee. Participant further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer and/or the Trustee (a) makes no representations or
undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Award, including the grant, vesting, or issuance of Shares, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired under the Plan and the receipt of dividends, if
any; and (b) does not commit to and is under no obligation to structure the terms of the Award or any aspect of the Award to reduce or eliminate Participant’s liability for Tax-Related Items, or achieve any particular tax result. Further,
if Participant has become subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction between the date of grant and the date of any relevant taxable event, Participant acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) and/or the
Trustee may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction. 
 Notwithstanding any
contrary provision of this Award Agreement, no certificate representing the Shares will be issued to Participant (or his or her estate or beneficiary), unless and until satisfactory arrangements (as determined by the Administrator) will have been
made by Participant with respect to the payment of any Tax-Related Items which the Company determines must be withheld with respect to such Shares. The Administrator, in its sole discretion and pursuant to such procedures as it may specify from time
to time, may permit Participant to satisfy such tax withholding obligation, in whole or in part (without limitation) by (a) paying cash, (b) electing to have the Company withhold otherwise deliverable Shares having a Fair Market Value
equal to the minimum amount required to be withheld, (c) delivering to the Company already vested and owned Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld, or (d) selling a sufficient number of such Shares
otherwise deliverable to Participant through such means as the Company may determine in its sole discretion (whether through a broker or otherwise) equal to the amount required to be withheld. To the extent determined appropriate by the Company in
its discretion, it will have the right (but not the obligation) to satisfy any tax withholding obligations by reducing the number of Shares otherwise deliverable to Participant. If Participant fails to make satisfactory arrangements for the payment
of any required tax withholding obligations hereunder at the time any applicable Restricted Stock Units otherwise are scheduled to vest pursuant to Sections 3 or 4, Participant will permanently forfeit such Restricted Stock Units and any right to
receive Shares thereunder and the Restricted Stock Units will be returned to the Company at no cost to the Company. 
 If the
obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding Shares, the Participant is deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares purchased for tax purposes, notwithstanding that a number of the Shares is held back solely for the purpose
of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of the Participant’s participation in the Plan. Participant shall pay to the Company or Employer or the Trustee any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or Employer or the Trustee may be
required to withhold as a result of Participant’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by one or more of the means previously described in this paragraph 8. Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Company may refuse to issue
or deliver the Shares or the proceeds of the sale of Shares if Participant fails to comply with his or her obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items. 
 Participant shall be taxed in Israel in respect of the Award and Shares, in accordance with the “Capital Gain Route” under Section 102 and the relevant provisions of the ITO, and any tax


  
 -5-









 
ruling or agreement obtained by the Company or the Employer or the Trustee with regard to the Plan. The ramifications of any future modification of applicable laws regarding the taxation of the
Award granted hereunder shall apply to the Participant accordingly and the Participant shall bear the full cost thereof, unless such modified laws expressly provide otherwise. 
 9. Rights as Stockholder. Neither Participant nor any person claiming under or through Participant will have any of the rights or privileges of a stockholder of the Company in respect of any Shares
deliverable hereunder unless and until certificates representing such Shares will have been issued, recorded on the records of the Company or its transfer agents or registrars, and delivered to Participant. After such issuance, recordation and
delivery, Participant or the Trustee on behalf of the Participant, will have all the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to voting such Shares and receipt of dividends and distributions on such Shares. 

10. No Guarantee of Continued Service. PARTICIPANT ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE VESTING OF THE RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS PURSUANT
TO THE VESTING SCHEDULE HEREOF IS EARNED ONLY BY CONTINUING AS A SERVICE PROVIDER AT THE WILL OF THE EMPLOYER (OR PURSUANT TO AN EMPLOYMENT CONTRACT, IF ANY) AND NOT THROUGH THE ACT OF BEING HIRED, BEING GRANTED THIS AWARD OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS
OR ACQUIRING SHARES HEREUNDER. PARTICIPANT FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THIS AWARD AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER AND THE VESTING SCHEDULE SET FORTH HEREIN DO NOT CONSTITUTE AN EXPRESS OR IMPLIED PROMISE OF CONTINUED
ENGAGEMENT AS A SERVICE PROVIDER FOR THE VESTING PERIOD, FOR ANY PERIOD, OR AT ALL, AND WILL NOT INTERFERE IN ANY WAY WITH PARTICIPANT’S RIGHT OR THE RIGHT OF THE EMPLOYER TO TERMINATE PARTICIPANT’S RELATIONSHIP AS A SERVICE PROVIDER AT
ANY TIME, WITH OR WITHOUT CAUSE SUBJECT TO APPLICABLE LOCAL LAW. 
 11. Nature of Grant. In accepting the Award,
Participant acknowledges that: 
 (a) the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, it is discretionary in nature and it
may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time; 
 (b) the grant of the Award is voluntary and
occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of Awards, or benefits in lieu of Awards even if Awards have been granted repeatedly in the past; 

(c) all decisions with respect to future awards, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company; 

(d) Participant’s participation in the Plan is voluntary; 
 (e) the Award and the Shares related to the Award are an extraordinary items that do not constitute regular compensation for services rendered to the Company or the Employer, and that are outside the
scope of Participant’s employment contract, if any; 
 (f) the Award and the Shares related to the Award are not intended
to replace any pension rights or compensation; 
 (g) the Award and the Shares related to the Award are not part of normal or
expected compensation or salary for any purposes, including, but not limited to, calculating any 

  
 -6-









 
severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, or end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar payments and in no event
should be considered as compensation for, or relating in any way to, past services for the Company or the Employer; 
 (h) the
future value of the Shares is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty; 
 (i) Participant also understands that neither
the Company, nor any Affiliate or the Trustee is responsible for any foreign exchange fluctuation between local currency and the United States Dollar that may affect the value of the Award; 

(j) in consideration of the grant of the Award, no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from forfeiture of the
Award resulting from termination of employment by the Employer (for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of local labor laws), and Participant irrevocably releases the Employer from any such claim that may arise; if, notwithstanding
the foregoing, any such claim is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen, Participant shall be deemed irrevocably to have waived his or her entitlement to pursue such claim; and 

(k) the Award and the benefits under the Plan, if any, will not automatically transfer to another company in the case of a merger,
take-over or transfer of liability. 
 12. No Advice Regarding Grant. The Company is not providing any tax, legal or
financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding Participant’s participation in the Plan, or Participant’s acquisition or sale of Shares. Participant is hereby advised to consult with his or her own personal tax,
legal and financial advisors regarding Participant’s participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan. 
 13. Data Privacy. Participant hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of Participant’s personal data as described

Participant understands that the Company, its Affiliates and the Trustee may hold certain personal information about Participant,
including, but not limited to, Participant’s name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any shares of stock or directorships held in the
Company or any Affiliate or the Trustee, details of all Awards or any other entitlement to shares of stock awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in Participant’s favor, for the exclusive purpose of implementing,
administering and managing the Plan (“Personal Data”). Participant understands that Personal Data may be transferred to any third parties assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan, that these recipients may
be located in the United States, Participant’s country (if different than the United States), or elsewhere, and that the recipient’s country may have different data privacy laws and protections than Participant’s country.

Section 7, this grant and the rights and privileges conferred hereby will not be transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated in any way (whether by operation of law or otherwise) and will not be subject to sale under execution, attachment or
similar process. Upon any attempt to transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of this grant, or any right or privilege conferred hereby, or upon any attempted sale under any execution, attachment or similar process, this grant and

registration or qualification of the Shares upon any securities exchange or under any state or federal law, or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory authority is necessary or desirable as a condition to the issuance of Shares to
Participant (or his or her estate), such issuance will not occur unless and until such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval will have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Company. Where the
Company determines that the delivery of the payment of any Shares will violate federal securities laws or other applicable laws, the Company will defer delivery until the earliest date at which the Company reasonably anticipates that the delivery of
Shares will no longer cause such violation. The Company will make all reasonable efforts to meet the requirements of any such state or federal law or securities exchange and to obtain any such consent or approval of any such governmental authority.

participation in the Plan, on the Award and on any Shares acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable in order to comply with local law or facilitate the administration of the Plan, and to require
Participant to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing.
