EVERBRIDGE, INC. 

2016 EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN 

ADOPTED BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS:
[                    ], 2016 

APPROVED BY THE STOCKHOLDERS:
[                    ], 2016 
  

	1.	GENERAL; PURPOSE. 

 (a) The Plan provides a means by
which Eligible Employees of the Company and certain designated Related Corporations may be given an opportunity to purchase shares of Common Stock. The Plan permits the Company to grant a series of Purchase Rights to Eligible Employees under an
Employee Stock Purchase Plan. 
 (b) The Company, by means of the Plan, seeks to retain the services of such Employees, to
secure and retain the services of new Employees and to provide incentives for such persons to exert maximum efforts for the success of the Company and its Related Corporations. 

 

	2.	ADMINISTRATION. 

 (a) The Board will administer the Plan unless and
until the Board delegates administration of the Plan to a Committee or Committees, as provided in Section 2(c). 
 (b) The
Board will have the power, subject to, and within the limitations of, the express provisions of the Plan: 
 (i) To determine
how and when Purchase Rights will be granted and the provisions of each Offering (which need not be identical). 
 (ii) To
designate from time to time which Related Corporations of the Company will be eligible to participate in the Plan. 
 (iii) To
construe and interpret the Plan and Purchase Rights, and to establish, amend and revoke rules and regulations for its administration. The Board, in the exercise of this power, may correct any defect, omission or inconsistency in the Plan, in a
manner and to the extent it deems necessary or expedient to make the Plan fully effective. 
 (iv) To settle all controversies
regarding the Plan and Purchase Rights granted under the Plan. 
 (v) To suspend or terminate the Plan at any time as provided
in Section 12. 
 (vi) To amend the Plan at any time as provided in Section 12. 

(vii) Generally, to exercise such powers and to perform such acts as it deems necessary or expedient to promote the best interests of
the Company and its Related Corporations and to carry out the intent that the Plan be treated as an Employee Stock Purchase Plan. 







 (viii) To adopt such procedures and sub-plans as are necessary or appropriate to permit
participation in the Plan by Employees who are foreign nationals or employed outside the United States. 
 (c) The Board may
delegate some or all of the administration of the Plan to a Committee or Committees. If administration is delegated to a Committee, the Committee will have, in connection with the administration of the Plan, the powers theretofore possessed by the
Board that have been delegated to the Committee, including the power to delegate to a subcommittee any of the administrative powers the Committee is authorized to exercise (and references in this Plan to the Board will thereafter be to the Committee
or subcommittee), subject, however, to such resolutions, not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as may be adopted from time to time by the Board. The Board may retain the authority to concurrently administer the Plan with the Committee
and may, at any time, revest in the Board some or all of the powers previously delegated. Whether or not the Board has delegated administration of the Plan to a Committee, the Board will have the final power to determine all questions of policy and
expediency that may arise in the administration of the Plan. 
 (d) All determinations, interpretations and constructions made
by the Board in good faith will not be subject to review by any person and will be final, binding and conclusive on all persons. 
  

	3.	SHARES OF COMMON STOCK SUBJECT TO THE PLAN. 


(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 11(a) relating to Capitalization Adjustments, the maximum number of shares of Common Stock
that may be issued under the Plan will not exceed 500,000 shares of Common Stock, plus the number of shares of Common Stock that are automatically added on January 1st of each year for a period of up to ten years, commencing on the first
January 1 following the IPO Date and ending on (and including) January 1, 2026, in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) 1% of the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on December 31st of the preceding calendar year,
and (ii) 200,000 shares of Common Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board may act prior to the first day of any calendar year to provide that there will be no January 1st
increase in the share reserve for such calendar year or that the increase in the share reserve for such calendar year will be a lesser number of shares of Common Stock than would otherwise occur pursuant to the preceding sentence. 

(b) If any Purchase Right granted under the Plan terminates without having been exercised in full, the shares of Common Stock not
purchased under such Purchase Right will again become available for issuance under the Plan.  
 (c) The stock purchasable
under the Plan will be shares of authorized but unissued or reacquired Common Stock, including shares repurchased by the Company on the open market.  
  

	4.	GRANT OF PURCHASE RIGHTS; OFFERING. 


(a) The Board may from time to time grant or provide for the grant of Purchase Rights to Eligible Employees under an Offering
(consisting of one or more Purchase Periods) on an Offering Date or Offering Dates selected by the Board. Each Offering will be in such form and will contain such terms and conditions as the Board will deem appropriate, and will comply


  
 2 








 
with the requirement of Section 423(b)(5) of the Code that all Employees granted Purchase Rights will have the same rights and privileges. The terms and conditions of an Offering shall be
incorporated by reference into the Plan and treated as part of the Plan. The provisions of separate Offerings need not be identical, but each Offering will include (through incorporation of the provisions of this Plan by reference in the document
comprising the Offering or otherwise) the period during which the Offering will be effective, which period will not exceed 27 months beginning with the Offering Date, and the substance of the provisions contained in Sections 5 through 8, inclusive.

 (b) If a Participant has more than one Purchase Right outstanding under the Plan, unless he or she otherwise indicates in forms
delivered to the Company: (i) each form will apply to all of his or her Purchase Rights under the Plan, and (ii) a Purchase Right with a lower exercise price (or an earlier-granted Purchase Right, if different Purchase Rights have
identical exercise prices) will be exercised to the fullest possible extent before a Purchase Right with a higher exercise price (or a later-granted Purchase Right if different Purchase Rights have identical exercise prices) will be exercised.

 (c) The Board will have the discretion to structure an Offering so that if the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on
the first Trading Day of a new Purchase Period within that Offering is less than or equal to the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the Offering Date for that Offering, then (i) that Offering will terminate immediately as of that
first Trading Day, and (ii) the Participants in such terminated Offering will be automatically enrolled in a new Offering beginning on the first Trading Day of such new Purchase Period.  

 

	5.	ELIGIBILITY. 

 (a) Purchase Rights may be granted only to Employees
of the Company or, as the Board may designate in accordance with Section 2(b), to Employees of a Related Corporation. Except as provided in Section 5(b), an Employee will not be eligible to be granted Purchase Rights unless, on the
Offering Date, the Employee has been in the employ of the Company or the Related Corporation, as the case may be, for such continuous period preceding such Offering Date as the Board may require, but in no event will the required period of
continuous employment be equal to or greater than two years. In addition, the Board may (unless prohibited by law) provide that no Employee will be eligible to be granted Purchase Rights under the Plan unless, on the Offering Date, such
Employee’s customary employment with the Company or the Related Corporation is more than 20 hours per week and more than five months per calendar year or such other criteria as the Board may determine consistent with Section 423 of the
Code. 
 (b) The Board may provide that each person who, during the course of an Offering, first becomes an Eligible Employee
and elects to participate in the Offering will, on a date or dates specified in the Offering which coincides with the day on which such person becomes an Eligible Employee or which occurs thereafter, receive a Purchase Right under that Offering,
which Purchase Right will thereafter be deemed to be a part of that Offering. Such Purchase Right will have the same characteristics as any Purchase Rights originally granted under that Offering, as described herein, except that: 

(i) the date on which such Purchase Right is granted will be the “Offering Date” of such Purchase Right for all purposes,
including determination of the exercise price of such Purchase Right; 

  
 3 








 (ii) the period of the Offering with respect to such Purchase Right will begin on its
Offering Date and end coincident with the end of such Offering; and 
 (iii) the Board may provide that if such person first
becomes an Eligible Employee within a specified period of time before the end of the Offering, he or she will not receive any Purchase Right under that Offering. 

(c) The Board may provide that each person who did not elect to fully participate in an ongoing Offering prior to the commencement of a
subsequent Purchase Period and elects to participate in the Offering will, on a date or dates specified in the Offering which coincides with the day on which such person elects to participate in the Offering or which occurs thereafter, receive a
Purchase Right under that Offering, which Purchase Right will thereafter be deemed to be a part of that Offering. Such Purchase Right will have the same characteristics as any Purchase Rights originally granted under that Offering, as described
herein, except that: 
 (i) the date on which such Purchase Right is granted will be the “Offering Date” of such
Purchase Right for all purposes, including determination of the exercise price of such Purchase Right; 
 (ii) the period of
the Offering with respect to such Purchase Right will begin on its Offering Date and end coincident with the end of such Offering; and 

(iii) the Board may provide that if such person first elects to participate in the Offering within a specified period of time before
the end of the Offering, he or she will not receive any Purchase Right under that Offering. 
 (d) No Employee will be
eligible for the grant of any Purchase Rights if, immediately after any such Purchase Rights are granted, such Employee owns stock possessing five percent or more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of stock of the Company or
of any Related Corporation (unless otherwise required by law). For purposes of this Section 5(c), the rules of Section 424(d) of the Code will apply in determining the stock ownership of any Employee, and stock which such Employee may
purchase under all outstanding Purchase Rights and options will be treated as stock owned by such Employee. 
 (e) As
specified by Section 423(b)(8) of the Code, an Eligible Employee may be granted Purchase Rights only if such Purchase Rights, together with any other rights granted under all Employee Stock Purchase Plans of the Company and any Related
Corporations, do not permit such Eligible Employee’s rights to purchase stock of the Company or any Related Corporation to accrue at a rate which exceeds $25,000 of Fair Market Value of such stock (determined at the time such rights are
granted, and which, with respect to the Plan, will be determined as of their respective Offering Dates) for each calendar year in which such rights are outstanding at any time. 

  
 4 








 (f) Officers of the Company and any designated Related Corporation, if they are otherwise
Eligible Employees, will be eligible to participate in Offerings under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board may (unless prohibited by law) provide in an Offering that Employees who are highly compensated Employees within the meaning of
Section 423(b)(4)(D) of the Code will not be eligible to participate. 
  

	6.	PURCHASE RIGHTS; PURCHASE PRICE. 


(a) On each Offering Date, each Eligible Employee, pursuant to an Offering made under the Plan, will be granted a Purchase Right to
purchase up to that number of shares of Common Stock purchasable either with a percentage or with a maximum dollar amount, as designated by the Board, but in either case not exceeding 15% of such Employee’s earnings (as defined by the Board in
each Offering) during the period that begins on the Offering Date (or such later date as the Board determines for a particular Offering) and ends on the date stated in the Offering, which date will be no later than the end of the Offering. 

(b) The Board will establish one or more Purchase Dates during an Offering on which Purchase Rights granted for that Offering will be
exercised and shares of Common Stock will be purchased in accordance with such Offering. 
 (c) In connection with each
Offering made under the Plan, the Board may specify (i) a maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be purchased by any Participant on any Purchase Date during such Offering, (ii) a maximum aggregate number of shares of Common
Stock that may be purchased by all Participants pursuant to such Offering and/or (iii) a maximum aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be purchased by all Participants on any Purchase Date under the Offering. If the aggregate
purchase of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of Purchase Rights granted under the Offering would exceed any such maximum aggregate number, then, in the absence of any Board action otherwise, a pro rata (based on each Participant’s
accumulated Contributions) allocation of the shares of Common Stock available will be made in as nearly a uniform manner as will be practicable and equitable. 

(d) The purchase price of shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to Purchase Rights will be not less than the lesser of: 

(i) an amount equal to 85% of the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock on the Offering Date; or 

(ii) an amount equal to 85% of the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock on the applicable Purchase Date. 

 

	7.	PARTICIPATION; WITHDRAWAL; TERMINATION. 


(a) An Eligible Employee may elect to participate in an Offering and authorize payroll deductions as the means of making Contributions
by completing and delivering to the Company, within the time specified in the Offering, an enrollment form provided by the Company. The enrollment form will specify the amount of Contributions not to exceed the maximum amount specified by the Board.
Each Participant’s Contributions will be credited to a 

  
 5 








 
bookkeeping account for such Participant under the Plan and will be deposited with the general funds of the Company except where applicable law requires that Contributions be deposited with a
third party. If permitted in the Offering, a Participant may begin such Contributions with the first payroll occurring on or after the Offering Date (or, in the case of a payroll date that occurs after the end of the prior Offering but before the
Offering Date of the next new Offering, Contributions from such payroll will be included in the new Offering). If permitted in the Offering, a Participant may thereafter reduce (including to zero) or increase his or her Contributions. If required
under applicable law or if specifically provided in the Offering, in addition to or instead of making Contributions by payroll deductions, a Participant may make Contributions through the payment by cash or check prior to a Purchase Date. 

(b) During an Offering, a Participant may cease making Contributions and withdraw from the Offering by delivering to the Company a
withdrawal form provided by the Company. The Company may impose a deadline before a Purchase Date for withdrawing. Upon such withdrawal, such Participant’s Purchase Right in that Offering will immediately terminate and the Company will
distribute to such Participant all of his or her accumulated but unused Contributions and such Participant’s Purchase Right in that Offering shall thereupon terminate. A Participant’s withdrawal from that Offering will have no effect upon
his or her eligibility to participate in any other Offerings under the Plan, but such Participant will be required to deliver a new enrollment form to participate in subsequent Offerings. 

(c) Unless otherwise required by applicable law, Purchase Rights granted pursuant to any Offering under the Plan will terminate
immediately if the Participant either (i) is no longer an Employee for any reason or for no reason (subject to any post-employment participation period required by law) or (ii) is otherwise no longer eligible to participate. The Company
will distribute to such individual all of his or her accumulated but unused Contributions. 
 (d) During a Participant’s
lifetime, Purchase Rights will be exercisable only by such Participant. Purchase Rights are not transferable by a Participant, except by will, by the laws of descent and distribution, or, if permitted by the Company, by a beneficiary designation as
described in Section 10.  
 (e) Unless otherwise specified in the Offering or required by applicable law, the Company
will have no obligation to pay interest on Contributions. 
  

	8.	EXERCISE OF PURCHASE RIGHTS. 


(a) On each Purchase Date, each Participant’s accumulated Contributions will be applied to the purchase of shares of Common Stock,
up to the maximum number of shares of Common Stock permitted by the Plan and the applicable Offering, at the purchase price specified in the Offering. No fractional shares will be issued unless specifically provided for in the Offering. 

(b) If any amount of accumulated Contributions remains in a Participant’s account after the purchase of shares of Common Stock on
the final Purchase Date of an Offering, then such remaining amount will not roll over to the next Offering and will instead be distributed in full to such Participant after the final Purchase Date of such Offering without interest (unless otherwise
required by applicable law). 

  
 6 








 (c) No Purchase Rights may be exercised to any extent unless the shares of Common Stock to
be issued upon such exercise under the Plan are covered by an effective registration statement pursuant to the Securities Act and the Plan is in material compliance with all applicable federal, state, foreign and other securities and other laws
applicable to the Plan. If on a Purchase Date the shares of Common Stock are not so registered or the Plan is not in such compliance, no Purchase Rights will be exercised on such Purchase Date, and the Purchase Date will be delayed until the shares
of Common Stock are subject to such an effective registration statement and the Plan is in material compliance, except that the Purchase Date will in no event be more than 27 months from the Offering Date. If, on the Purchase Date, as delayed to the
maximum extent permissible, the shares of Common Stock are not registered and the Plan is not in material compliance with all applicable laws, no Purchase Rights will be exercised and all accumulated but unused Contributions will be distributed to
the Participants without interest. 
  

	9.	COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY. 


The Company will seek to obtain from each federal, state, foreign or other regulatory commission or agency having jurisdiction over the Plan
such authority as may be required to grant Purchase Rights and issue and sell shares of Common Stock thereunder. If, after commercially reasonable efforts, the Company is unable to obtain the authority that counsel for the Company deems necessary
for the grant of Purchase Rights or the lawful issuance and sale of Common Stock under the Plan, and at a commercially reasonable cost, the Company will be relieved from any liability for failure to grant Purchase Rights and/or to issue and sell
Common Stock upon exercise of such Purchase Rights. 
  

	10.	DESIGNATION OF BENEFICIARY. 

 (a) The
Company may, but is not obligated to, permit a Participant to submit a form designating a beneficiary who will receive any shares of Common Stock and/or Contributions from the Participant’s account under the Plan if the Participant dies before
such shares and/or Contributions are delivered to the Participant. The Company may, but is not obligated to, permit the Participant to change such designation of beneficiary. Any such designation and/or change must be on a form approved by the
Company. 
 (b) If a Participant dies, and in the absence of a valid beneficiary designation, the Company will deliver any
shares of Common Stock and/or Contributions to the executor or administrator of the estate of the Participant. If no executor or administrator has been appointed (to the knowledge of the Company), the Company, in its sole discretion, may deliver
such shares of Common Stock and/or Contributions to the Participant’s spouse, dependents or relatives, or if no spouse, dependent or relative is known to the Company, then to such other person as the Company may designate. 

  
 7 









	11.	ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN COMMON STOCK; CORPORATE TRANSACTIONS. 


(a) In the event of a Capitalization Adjustment, the Board will appropriately and proportionately adjust: (i) the class(es) and
maximum number of securities subject to the Plan pursuant to Section 3(a), (ii) the class(es) and maximum number of securities by which the share reserve is to increase automatically each year pursuant to Section 3(a), (iii) the
class(es) and number of securities subject to, and the purchase price applicable to outstanding Offerings and Purchase Rights, and (iv) the class(es) and number of securities that are the subject of the purchase limits under each ongoing
Offering. The Board will make these adjustments, and its determination will be final, binding and conclusive. 
 (b) In the event of
a Corporate Transaction, then: (i) any surviving corporation or acquiring corporation (or the surviving or acquiring corporation’s parent company) may assume or continue outstanding Purchase Rights or may substitute similar rights
(including a right to acquire the same consideration paid to the stockholders in the Corporate Transaction) for outstanding Purchase Rights, or (ii) if any surviving or acquiring corporation (or its parent company) does not assume or continue
such Purchase Rights or does not substitute similar rights for such Purchase Rights, then the Participants’ accumulated Contributions will be used to purchase shares of Common Stock within ten business days prior to the Corporate Transaction
under the outstanding Purchase Rights, and the Purchase Rights will terminate immediately after such purchase. 
  

	12.	AMENDMENT, TERMINATION OR SUSPENSION OF THE PLAN. 


(a) The Board may amend the Plan at any time in any respect the Board deems necessary or advisable. However, except as provided in
Section 11(a) relating to Capitalization Adjustments, stockholder approval will be required for any amendment of the Plan for which stockholder approval is required by applicable law or listing requirements, including any amendment that either
(i) materially increases the number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the Plan, (ii) materially expands the class of individuals eligible to become Participants and receive Purchase Rights, (iii) materially
increases the benefits accruing to Participants under the Plan or materially reduces the price at which shares of Common Stock may be purchased under the Plan, (iv) materially extends the term of the Plan, or (v) expands the types of
awards available for issuance under the Plan, but in each of (i) through (v) above only to the extent stockholder approval is required by applicable law or listing requirements. 

(b) The Board may suspend or terminate the Plan at any time. No Purchase Rights may be granted under the Plan while the Plan is
suspended or after it is terminated. 
 (c) Any benefits, privileges, entitlements and obligations under any outstanding
Purchase Rights granted before an amendment, suspension or termination of the Plan will not be materially impaired by any such amendment, suspension or termination except (i) with the consent of the person to whom such Purchase Rights were
granted, (ii) as necessary to comply with any laws, listing requirements, or governmental regulations (including, without limitation, the provisions of Section 423 of the Code and the regulations and other interpretive guidance issued
thereunder relating to Employee Stock Purchase Plans) including without limitation any such regulations or other guidance that may be issued or amended after the Effective Date, or (iii) as necessary to obtain or maintain favorable tax,
listing, or regulatory treatment. To be clear, the Board may amend outstanding Purchase Rights without a Participant’s consent if such amendment is necessary to ensure that the Purchase Right and/or the Plan complies with the requirements of
Section 423 of the Code. 

  
 8 









	13.	EFFECTIVE DATE OF PLAN. 

 The
Plan will become effective on the IPO Date. No Purchase Rights will be exercised unless and until the Plan has been approved by the stockholders of the Company, which approval must be within 12 months before or after the date the Plan is adopted (or
if required under Section 12(a) above, materially amended) by the Board. 
  

	14.	MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS. 

 (a) Proceeds from the
sale of shares of Common Stock pursuant to Purchase Rights will constitute general funds of the Company. 
 (b) A Participant will
not be deemed to be the holder of, or to have any of the rights of a holder with respect to, shares of Common Stock subject to Purchase Rights unless and until the Participant’s shares of Common Stock acquired upon exercise of Purchase Rights
are recorded in the books of the Company (or its transfer agent). 
 (c) The Plan and Offering do not constitute an employment
contract. Nothing in the Plan or in the Offering will in any way alter the at will nature of a Participant’s employment, if applicable, or be deemed to create in any way whatsoever any obligation on the part of any Participant to continue in
the employ of the Company or a Related Corporation, or on the part of the Company or a Related Corporation to continue the employment of a Participant. 

(d) The provisions of the Plan will be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware without resort to that state’s conflicts of
laws rules. 
 (e) If any particular provision of the Plan is found to be invalid or otherwise unenforceable, such provision will not
affect the other provisions of the Plan, but the Plan will be construed in all respects as if such invalid provision were omitted.
