 THIS CERTIFIES THAT,
for value received, 
  
 is the registered holder (the “Holder”)
of the number of Warrants set forth above (the “Warrants”), and is thereby entitled to subscribe for and purchase from REDBACK NETWORKS INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), that number of fully paid and
nonassessable shares equal to the Warrants (as adjusted pursuant to Section 2 hereof) (the “Warrant Shares”) of Common Stock of the Company (the “Common Stock”) at the purchase price of U.S. Five Dollars (U.S.
$5.00) (as adjusted pursuant to Section 2 hereof) (the “Exercise Price”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein and in the Warrant Agent Agreement between the Company and U.S. Stock Transfer Corporation as
Warrant Agent, dated January 2, 2004, as amended (the “Warrant Agent Agreement”), which is hereby incorporated by reference in and made part of this Warrant. This Warrant will expire and will no longer be exercisable after 5:00 p.m.
Pacific Time on January 2, 2011 (the “Expiration Date”). 
  
 1. Exercise Rights. 
  
 (a) Cash Exercise. The purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised by the Holder at any time during the term hereof, in whole or in part, by surrender of this Warrant with the NOTICE OF
EXERCISE (CASH EXERCISE) section of this Warrant completed and duly executed, accompanied by payment to the Company of an amount equal to the Exercise Price then in effect multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares to be purchased by the Holder in
connection with such cash exercise of this Warrant, which amount may be paid, at the election of the Holder, by wire transfer or delivery of a certified check payable to the order of the Company to the principal offices of the Company. 

 
 (b) Net Issue Exercise. In lieu of exercising the
purchase rights represented by this Warrant on a cash basis pursuant to Section 1(a) hereof, the Holder may elect to exercise such rights represented by this Warrant at any time during the term hereof, in whole or in part, on a net-issue basis by
electing to receive the number of Warrant Shares which are equal in value to the value of this Warrant (or any portion thereof to be canceled in connection with such net-issue exercise) at the time of any such net-issue exercise, by delivery to the
principal offices of the Company of this Warrant and with the NOTICE OF EXERCISE (NET-ISSUE EXERCISE) section of this Warrant completed and duly executed, properly marked to indicate (A) the number of Warrant Shares to be delivered to the Holder in
connection with such net-issue exercise, (B) the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which the Warrant is being surrendered in payment of the aggregate Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares to be delivered to the Holder in connection with such
net-issue exercise, calculated as of the Determination Date (as defined below) and (C) the number of Warrant Shares which remain subject to the Warrant after such net-issue exercise, if any (each as determined in accordance with this Section 1(b)).
In the event that the Holder will elect to exercise the rights represented by this Warrant in whole or in part on a net-issue basis pursuant to this Section 1(b), the Company will issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares determined in
accordance with the following formula: X =Y (A-B) / A. For purposes of this formula, X = the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder in connection with such net-issue exercise; Y = the number of Warrant Shares to be surrendered,
up to the number of Warrant Shares subject to this Warrant; A = the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock; and B = the Exercise Price in effect as of the date of such net-issue exercise (as adjusted pursuant to Section 2 hereof).

  
 (c) Fair Market Value. For purposes of
this Section 1, the “Fair Market Value” of the Common Stock will have the following meanings: (i) If the Common Stock is listed for trading on a national securities exchange or admitted for trading on a national market or other
quotation system, then the Fair Market Value of Common Stock will be deemed to be the closing price quoted on the principal securities exchange on which the Common Stock is listed for trading, or if not so listed, the average of the closing bid and
asked prices for Common Stock quoted on the national market or other quotation system on which Common Stock is admitted for trading, each as published in the Western Edition of The Wall Street Journal (or, if such prices are not published in
the Western Edition of the Wall Street Journal, as reported by the applicable authority or association governing trading of the Common Stock), in each case for the ten trading days prior to the Determination Date; and (ii) if the Common Stock
is not listed for trading on a national securities exchange or admitted for trading on a national market or other quotation system, then the Fair Market Value of Common Stock will be deemed to be the fair market value of Common Stock as determined
in good faith from time to time by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board of Directors”) as at the Determination Date, and receipt and acknowledgment of this Warrant by the Holder will be deemed to be an acknowledgment
and acceptance of any such determination of the fair market value of Common Stock by the Board of Directors as the final and binding determination of such Fair Market Value for purposes of this Warrant. The “Determination Date” of
Fair Market Value will be the date indicated on the Notice of Exercise (Net Issue Exercise); provided, however, that if the Company does not receive the Notice of Exercise (Net Issue Exercise) within five (5) business days of the date
indicated thereon, the Determination Date will be the date the Company receives the Notice of Exercise (Net Issue Exercise). 
  
 (d) Certain Distributions. The Company will provide the Holder with prior written notice of any Distribution (as defined below) to
be made by the Company after the date hereof and prior to the expiration of this Warrant. Such notice will be delivered to the Holder not less than twenty (20) days prior to the record date for determining stockholders entitled to receive the
Distribution. “Distribution” will mean a distribution by the Company to all holders of its shares of Common Stock (i) evidences of indebtedness of the Company to its stockholders, (ii) assets (excluding cash distributions made as a
dividend payable out of the lesser of the undistributed earnings for the fiscal year during which the dividend is declared and the retained earnings of the Company) or (iii) rights to subscribe to shares of Common Stock; provided, however,
that the foregoing will not apply to any stockholder rights plan of the Company. 
  
 (e) Fractional Shares; Record Ownership of Warrant Shares; Stock Certificates. Upon the exercise of the rights represented by this
Warrant, the Company will not be obligated to issue fractional shares of Common Stock, and in lieu thereof, the Company will pay to the Holder an amount in cash equal to the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock immediately prior to such
exercise multiplied by such fraction (rounded to the nearest cent). The Warrant Shares will be deemed to have been issued, and the person in whose name any certificate representing Warrant Shares will be issuable upon the exercise of the rights
represented by this Warrant (as indicated in the Notice of Exercise) will be deemed to have become the holder of record of (and will be treated for all purposes as the record holder of) the Warrant Shares represented thereby, immediately prior to
the close of business on the date or dates upon which the rights represented by this Warrant are exercised in accordance with the terms hereof. In the event of any exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, certificates for the Warrant
Shares so purchased pursuant hereto will be delivered to the Holder within a reasonable time and, unless this Warrant has been fully exercised or has expired, a new Warrant representing the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant will not
have been exercised will also be issued to the Holder within such time. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Warrant, the obligation of the Company to deliver Warrant Shares upon any exercise of this Warrant will be subject to compliance
with any law, rule, regulation, order, decree or other similar authority that may be applicable to such issuance. The issuance of certificates for shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant will be made
without charge to the Holder for any issuance tax in respect thereof; provided, however, that the Company will not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any
certificate in a name other than that of the Holder of this Warrant. (CONTINUED ON BACK)

 2. Adjustment Rights. 
  
 (a) Right to Adjustment. The number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the rights
represented by this Warrant, and the Exercise Price therefor, will be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of certain events, as follows: 
  
 (i) Reclassifications. In the event of a reclassification of the Common Stock other than by stock
split, subdivision, consolidation or combination thereof, the Company will execute a new Warrant, the terms of which provide that the holder of this Warrant will have the right to exercise the rights represented by such new Warrant, and procure upon
such exercise and payment of the same aggregate Exercise Price then in effect, in lieu of the shares of Common Stock previously issuable upon exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, the kind and amount of shares of stock, other
securities, money and property receivable upon such reclassification by a holder of an equivalent number of shares of Common Stock at the time of such reclassification. Such new Warrant will provide for adjustments which are as equivalent as
practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 2. The provisions of this Section 2(a)(i) will apply with equal force and effect to all successive reclassifications of the Common Stock. 
  
 (ii) Stock Splits, Capital Stock Dividends, Combinations
and Consolidations. In the event of a stock split, capital stock dividend or subdivision of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant immediately
prior to such stock split, capital stock dividend or subdivision will be proportionately increased and the Exercise Price then in effect will be proportionately decreased, effective at the close of business on the date of such stock split, capital
stock dividend or subdivision, as the case may be. Conversely, in the event of a reverse stock split, consolidation, combination or other similar event of or in respect of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the number of Warrant Shares issuable
upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant immediately prior to such reverse stock split, consolidation, combination or other similar event will be proportionately decreased and the Exercise Price will be proportionately increased,
effective at the close of business on the date of such reverse stock split, consolidation, combination or other similar event, as the case may be. Nothing in this Warrant will entitle the Holder to receive any capital stock dividend or other
distribution to all of the Company’s stockholders until this Warrant will have been exercised. 
  
 (iii) Merger or Consolidation. If at any time there will be effected a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another
corporation, or a sale of all or substantially of the Company’s assets, in such way that holders of Common Stock will be entitled to receive stock, securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for their Common Stock, then, as a part of
such merger, consolidation or sale, lawful provision will be made so that the Holder will thereafter be entitled to receive upon exercise of its rights to purchase the Warrant Shares, the number of shares of stock or other securities or property of
the successor corporation resulting from such merger, consolidation or sale, equivalent in value to that which a holder of the Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of the right to purchase the Warrant Shares under this Warrant would have been
entitled in such merger, consolidation or sale if the right to purchase the Warrant Shares had been exercised immediately prior to such transaction. In any such case, appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors)
will be made in the application of the provisions of this Warrant with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder after the merger, consolidation or sale to the end that the provisions of this Warrant (including adjustments of the Exercise
Price and number of shares of Common Stock purchasable pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Warrant) will be applicable after the transaction, as near as reasonably may be, in relation to any shares or other securities or property
deliverable after that transaction upon the exercise of the Holder’s rights to purchase the Warrant Shares. 
  
 (b) Adjustment Notices. Upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price, and any increase or decrease in the number of Warrant Shares
subject to this Warrant, in accordance with this Section 2, the Company thereafter will give written notice thereof to the Holder at the address of such Holder as shown on the books of the Company, which notice will state the Exercise Price as
adjusted and, if applicable, the increased or decreased number of Warrant Shares subject to this Warrant, setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation of each such adjustment. 
  
 3. Transfer of Warrant. This Warrant and the rights represented hereby
may only be transferred in accordance with the conditions set forth in this Section 3. This Warrant and the rights represented hereby may be transferred in whole or in part. In order to effect any transfer or partial transfer of this Warrant or the
Warrant Shares, the Holder hereof will deliver this Warrant to the Company with the NOTICE OF TRANSFER section of this Warrant completed and duly executed. 
  
         4. Representations and Warranties of the Company. The Company hereby represents and warrants to the Holder that
this Warrant has been duly authorized and validly executed and delivered by the Company and constitutes a valid and legally binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may
be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating to creditors’ rights generally, by an implied covenant of good faith, reasonableness and fair
dealing and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). The Warrant Shares have been duly and validly authorized and reserved for issuance by the Company upon the
exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant and, when issued upon the exercise of such rights in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof, the Warrant Shares will be duly authorized and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable
shares of Common Stock. At all times during the term hereof, the Company will have authorized and reserved for issuance a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide for the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant. 

 
         5. No Stockholder Rights. Except as
otherwise set forth in Section 2 of this Warrant, the Holder (and any transferee hereof) will not be entitled to vote on matters submitted for the approval or consent of the stockholders of the Company or to receive dividends or other distributions
declared on or in respect of shares of Common Stock, or otherwise be deemed to be the holder of Common Stock or any other capital stock or other securities of the Company which may at any time be issuable upon the exercise of the rights represented
hereby for any purpose, nor will anything contained herein be construed to confer upon the Holder (or any transferee hereof) any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter
submitted for the approval or consent of the stockholders, or to give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether upon any recapitalization, issuance of stock, reclassification of stock, merger or consolidation, conveyance, or otherwise) or
to receive notice of meetings, or to receive dividends or subscription rights or otherwise until this Warrant will have been exercised and the Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the rights represented hereby will have become deliverable as
provided herein. 
  
 6. Miscellaneous. This Warrant and all
actions arising out of or in connection with this Warrant will be governed by the internal laws of the State of California as applied to agreements made and performed in California by residents of California. Subject to the restrictions on transfer
described in Section 3, the rights and obligations of the Company and the Holder of this Warrant and the Warrant Shares issued or issuable upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant will be binding upon and benefit the successors,
assigns, heirs, administrators and transferees of the parties. This Warrant may be terminated in advance of the Expiration Date, and any provision of this Warrant may be amended, waived or modified upon, either (i) the written consent of the Company
and the Holder or (ii) the written consent of the Company and the consent of those holders of at least a majority of the warrant shares issuable under the then-outstanding warrants issued at the Exercise Price pursuant to the Warrant Agent
Agreement, calculated assuming the exercise for cash of all of such then-outstanding warrants. All notices and other communications provided for hereunder will be in writing and will be deemed to have been duly given if mailed by registered or
certified mail, postage prepaid, or by recognized overnight courier, or delivered by personal delivery at the respective addresses of the parties as set forth in this Section 6 or on the register maintained by the Company, or, as to each party, at
such other address as will be designated by such party in a written notice to the other party. Notices to the Company will be directed to it at its address at Redback Networks Inc., 300 Holger Way, San Jose, California 95134; Attn: Chief Financial
Officer. Any party hereto may by notice so given change its address for future notice hereunder. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, notice will conclusively be deemed to have been given when received. In case any provision of this
Warrant is deemed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions will not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. The Company will not, by amendment of its Certificate of
Incorporation or through any other means, directly or indirectly, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant and will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the
taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the holder of this Warrant against impairment. The Company will at no time close its transfer books against the transfer of this Warrant or of any Warrant
Shares issued or issuable upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant in any matter which interferes with a timely exercise of such rights. The Company will not, by any action, seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of
the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith seek to carry out all such terms and take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Holder under this Warrant against impairment. Upon
receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form
and amount to the Company or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant, the Company at the Holder’s expense will execute and deliver to the Holder, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like date and
tenor. 
  
 WITNESS the facsimile signature of the proper
officers of the Company. This Warrant Certificate shall not be valid or obligatory for any purpose until it shall have been countersigned by the Warrant Agent.
