 EXHIBIT A 

TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT GRANT 

1. Grant. The Company hereby grants to the Participant named in the Notice of Grant (the “Participant”) under the Plan
an Award of Restricted Stock Units, subject to all of the terms and conditions in this Agreement and the Plan, which is incorporated herein by reference. Subject to Section 18(c) of the Plan, in the event of a conflict between the terms and
conditions of the Plan and the terms and conditions of this 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. 
 3. Vesting Schedule. Except as provided in Section 4, and subject to
Section 5, the Restricted Stock Units awarded by this 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 Agreement, unless Participant will have been continuously a Service Provider from the Date of Grant until the date such vesting occurs. 

4. Acceleration 

(a) 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.

 (b) Acceleration Relating to Death or Disability. Without limiting the terms of Section 4(a), if a Participant
acquires a Disability or ceases to be a Service Provider by reason of the Participant’s death (except resulting from suicide), then the Restricted Stock Units that remain unvested as of the date Participant acquired the Disability or
Participant’s date of termination shall fully vest. 
 5. Forfeiture upon Termination of Status as a Service
Provider. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this 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.

 6. Payment after Vesting. 

(a) Subject to Section 8, any Restricted Stock Units that vest will be paid to Participant (or in the event of
Participant’s death, to his or her estate) in whole Shares. Subject to the provisions of Section 6(b), such vested Restricted Stock Units shall be paid in Shares as soon as practicable after vesting, but in each such case no later than the
date that is two-and-one-half (2 1/2) months from
the later of (i) the end of the Company’s tax year that includes the vesting date, or (ii) the end of Participant’s tax year that includes the vesting date. 

(b) Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or this 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 Participant dies following his or her
termination as a Service Provider, in which case, the Restricted Stock Units will be paid in Shares to Participant’s estate as soon as practicable following his or her death. It is the intent of this Agreement to comply with the requirements of
Section 409A so that none of the Restricted Stock Units provided under this 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 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. 
 7. Death of Participant. Any distribution or delivery to be made to Participant under this 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. Until and unless the Administrator determines otherwise, under a broker-assisted program approved by the
Administrator in its discretion from time to time, the number of Shares that have an aggregate market value sufficient to pay the minimum income, employment and other applicable taxes required to be withheld by the Company will be sold at the
prevailing market price pursuant to such procedures as the Administrator in its sole discretion may specify from time to time. The proceeds of such sale shall be used to pay Participant’s tax withholding obligations (and any associated broker
or other fees) for the Restricted Stock Units. Only whole Shares will be sold to satisfy any tax withholding obligations pursuant to this Section 8. The number of Shares sold will be rounded up to the nearest whole Share, with a cash refund
remitted to Participant for the value of the Shares sold in excess of the tax withholding obligations (and any associated broker or other fees), all pursuant to such procedures as the Administrator may specify from time to time. By accepting this
Award, Participant expressly consents to the sale of Shares to cover the tax withholding obligations (and any associated broker or other fees) and agrees and acknowledges that Participant may not satisfy such obligations by any means other than such
sale of Shares, as set forth under this Section 8, unless required to do so by the Administrator or pursuant to the Administrator’s express written consent.

 If the Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Committee”) determines not to
allow for satisfaction of Participant’s tax withholding obligations through the sale of Shares as described in the previous paragraph, on the date or dates on which tax or other withholding obligations (if any) arise with respect to the
Restricted Stock Units (or as soon as administratively practicable thereafter), the Company will withhold the minimum number of whole Shares that have an aggregate Fair Market Value sufficient to pay the minimum statutorily required income,
employment and other applicable taxes required to be withheld by the Company pursuant to such procedures as the Administrator in its sole discretion may specify from time to time. The value of the withheld Shares will be used to satisfy
Participant’s minimum tax withholding obligations arising with respect to the Restricted Stock Units. Only whole Shares will be withheld to satisfy any tax withholding obligations pursuant to this Section 8. If the value of the withheld
Shares exceeds Participant’s minimum tax withholding obligations, such excess value will be remitted to Participant pursuant to such procedures as the Administrator may specify from time to time. By accepting this Award, Participant
expressly consents to the withholding of Shares to cover Participant’s tax withholding obligations and agrees and acknowledges that Participant may not satisfy such tax withholding obligations by any means other than such withholding of Shares
if the Committee determines not to allow for satisfaction of Participant’s tax withholding obligations through the sale of Shares as described in the previous paragraph, as set forth under this Section 8, unless required to do so by the
Administrator or pursuant to the Administrator’s express written consent. 
 If the Committee determines not to allow
for satisfaction of Participant’s tax withholding obligations through either method described in the foregoing paragraphs of this Section 8, prior to the issuance of Shares in accordance with Section 6, Participant will pay, or make
adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company (in its sole discretion) to satisfy all tax withholding and payment on account obligations of the Company. In this regard, Participant authorizes the Company to withhold all applicable tax
withholding obligations legally payable by Participant from Participant’s wages or other cash compensation payable to Participant by the Company. Alternatively, the Administrator, in its sole discretion may require Participant to satisfy his or
her tax withholding obligations, in whole or in part by paying cash. 
 Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this
Agreement, no certificate representing the Shares will be issued to Participant nor will Participant otherwise be recorded as the legal or beneficial owner of the Shares on the records of the transfer agent or registrar or otherwise, unless and
until all income, employment and other taxes have been withheld with respect to such Shares. All income and other taxes related to the Restricted Stock Units and any Shares delivered in payment thereof are the sole responsibility of Participant.

 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 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 COMPANY (OR THE PARENT OR SUBSIDIARY EMPLOYING OR RETAINING PARTICIPANT) 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 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 COMPANY (OR THE PARENT
OR SUBSIDIARY EMPLOYING OR RETAINING PARTICIPANT) TO TERMINATE PARTICIPANT’S RELATIONSHIP AS A SERVICE PROVIDER AT ANY TIME, WITH OR WITHOUT CAUSE. 

11. Address for Notices. Any notice to be given to the Company under the terms of this Agreement will be addressed to the Company
at Infinera Corporation, 169 Java Drive, Sunnyvale, CA 94089, or at such other address as the Company may hereafter designate in writing. 

12. Grant is Not Transferable. Except to the limited extent provided in 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 the rights and privileges conferred hereby immediately
will become null and void. 
 13. Binding Agreement. Subject to the limitation on the transferability of this grant
contained herein, this Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the heirs, legatees, legal representatives, successors and assigns of the parties hereto. 

14. Additional Conditions to Issuance of Stock. If at any time the Company will determine, in its discretion, that the listing,
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.

In the event of a conflict between one or more provisions of this Agreement and one or more provisions of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan will govern. Capitalized terms used and not defined in this Agreement will have the meaning set forth in
the Plan. 
 16. Administrator Authority. The Administrator will have the power to interpret the Plan and this Agreement
and to adopt such rules for the administration, interpretation and application of the Plan as are consistent therewith and to interpret or revoke any such rules (including, but not limited to, the determination of whether or not any Restricted Stock
Units have vested). All actions taken and all interpretations and determinations made by the Administrator in good faith will be final and binding upon Participant, the Company and all other interested persons. No member of the Administrator will be
personally liable for any action, determination or interpretation made in good faith with respect to the Plan or this Agreement. 

17. Electronic Delivery. The Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related to Restricted Stock
Units awarded under the Plan or future Restricted Stock Units that may be awarded under the Plan by electronic means or request Participant’s consent to participate in the Plan by electronic means. Participant hereby consents to receive such
documents by electronic delivery and agrees to participate in the Plan through any on-line or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or another third party designated by the Company. 

18. Captions. Captions provided herein are for convenience only and are not to serve as a basis for interpretation or construction
of this Agreement. 
 19. Agreement Severable. In the event that any provision in this Agreement will be held invalid or
unenforceable, such provision will be severable from, and such invalidity or unenforceability will not be construed to have any effect on, the remaining provisions of this Agreement. 

20. Modifications to the Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire understanding of the parties on the subjects covered.
Participant expressly warrants that he or she is not accepting this Agreement in reliance on any promises, representations, or inducements other than those contained herein. Modifications to this Agreement or the Plan can be made only in an express
