4. Administration of the Plan.

(a)
Plan Administrator.

(i) Administration with Respect to Directors and Officers. With respect to grants of Awards to Directors
or Employees who are also Officers or Directors of the Company, the Plan shall be administered by (A) the Board or (B) a Committee designated by the Board, which Committee shall be constituted in such a manner as to satisfy the Applicable
Laws and to permit such grants and related transactions under the Plan to be exempt from Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act in accordance with Rule 16b-3. Once appointed, such Committee shall continue to serve in its designated capacity
until otherwise directed by the Board.

(ii) Administration With Respect to Consultants and Other Employees. With respect to grants
of Awards to Employees or Consultants who are neither Directors nor Officers of the Company, the Plan shall be administered by (A) the Board or (B) a Committee designated by the Board, which Committee shall be constituted in such a manner
as to satisfy the Applicable Laws. Once appointed, such Committee shall continue to serve in its designated capacity until otherwise directed by the Board. The Board may authorize one or more Officers to grant such Awards and may limit such
authority as the Board determines from time to time.

(iii) Administration With Respect to Covered Employees. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, grants of Awards to any Covered Employee intended to qualify as Performance-Based Compensation shall be made only by a Committee (or subcommittee of a Committee) which is comprised solely of two or more Directors eligible to serve on a
committee making Awards qualifying as Performance-Based Compensation. In the case of such Awards granted to Covered Employees, references to the Administrator or to a Committee shall be deemed to be references to such
Committee or subcommittee.

(iv) Administration Errors. In the event an Award is granted in a manner inconsistent with the
provisions of this subsection (a), such Award shall be presumptively valid as of its grant date to the extent permitted by the Applicable Laws.

---

(b) Powers of the Administrator. Subject to Applicable Laws and the provisions of the Plan
(including any other powers given to the Administrator hereunder), and except as otherwise provided by the Board, the Administrator shall have the authority, in its discretion:

(i) to select the Employees, Directors and Consultants to whom Awards may be granted from time to time hereunder;

(ii) to determine whether and to what extent Awards are granted hereunder;

(iii) to determine the number of Shares or the amount of other consideration to be covered by each Award granted hereunder;

(iv) to approve forms of Award Agreement for use under the Plan;

(v) to determine the terms and conditions of any Award granted hereunder;

(vi) to amend the terms of any
outstanding Award granted under the Plan, including a reduction in the exercise price (or base amount on which appreciation is measured) of any Award to reflect a reduction in the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock since the grant date of the
Award, provided that any amendment that would adversely affect the Grantees rights under an outstanding Award shall not be made without the Grantees written consent;

(vii) to construe and interpret the terms of the Plan and Awards granted pursuant to the Plan;

(viii) to establish additional terms, conditions, rules or procedures to accommodate the rules or laws of applicable foreign jurisdictions and to afford
Grantees favorable treatment under such laws; provided, however, that no Award shall be granted under any such additional terms, conditions, rules or procedures with terms or conditions which are inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan; and

(ix) to take such other action, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, as the Administrator deems appropriate.

(c) Effect of Administrators Decision. All decisions, determinations and interpretations of the Administrator shall be conclusive and
binding on all persons.

5. Eligibility. Awards other than Incentive Stock Options may be granted to Employees, Directors and
Consultants. Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to Employees. An Employee, Director or Consultant who has been granted an Award may, if



6



---

otherwise eligible, be granted additional Awards. Awards may be granted to such Employees, Directors or Consultants who
are residing in foreign jurisdictions as the Administrator may determine from time to time.

6. Terms and Conditions of Awards.

(a) Type of Awards. The Administrator is authorized under the Plan to award any type of arrangement to an Employee, Director or
Consultant that is not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan and that by its terms involves or might involve the issuance of (i) Shares, (ii) an Option, a SAR or similar right with an exercise or conversion privilege at a fixed or
variable price related to the Common Stock and/or the passage of time, the occurrence of one or more events, or the satisfaction of performance criteria or other conditions, or (iii) any other security with the value derived from the value of
the Common Stock. Such awards include, without limitation, Options, SARs, sales or bonuses of Restricted Stock, Dividend Equivalent Rights, Performance Units or Performance Shares, and an Award may consist of one such security or benefit, or two or
more of them in any combination or alternative.

(b) Designation of Award. Each Award shall be designated in the Award Agreement. In
the case of an Option, the Option shall be designated as either an Incentive Stock Option or a Non-Qualified Stock Option. However, notwithstanding such designation, to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of Shares subject to Options
designated as Incentive Stock Options which become exercisable for the first time by a Grantee during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary) exceeds $100,000, such excess Options, to the extent of the Shares
covered thereby in excess of the foregoing limitation, shall be treated as Non-Qualified Stock Options. For this purpose, Incentive Stock Options shall be taken into account in the order in which they were granted, and the Fair Market Value of the
Shares shall be determined as of the date the Option with respect to such Shares is granted.

(c) Conditions of Award. Subject to
the terms of the Plan, the Administrator shall determine the provisions, terms, and conditions of each Award including, but not limited to, the Award vesting schedule, repurchase provisions, rights of first refusal, forfeiture provisions, form of
payment (cash, Shares, or other consideration) upon settlement of the Award, payment contingencies, and satisfaction of any performance criteria. The performance criteria established by the Administrator may be based on any one of, or combination
of, increase in share price, earnings per share, total stockholder return, return on equity, return on assets, return on investment, net operating income, cash flow, revenue, economic value added, personal management objectives, or other measure of
performance selected by the Administrator. Partial achievement of the specified criteria may result in a payment or vesting corresponding to the degree of achievement as specified in the Award Agreement.

(d) Deferral of Award Payment. The Administrator may establish one or more programs under the Plan to permit selected Grantees the opportunity to
elect to defer receipt of consideration upon exercise of an Award, satisfaction of performance criteria, or other event that absent the election would entitle the Grantee to payment or receipt of Shares or other consideration under an Award. The
Administrator may establish the election procedures, the timing of such elections, the mechanisms for payments of, and accrual of interest or other



7



---

earnings, if any, on amounts or Shares so deferred, and such other terms, conditions, rules and procedures that the
Administrator deems advisable for the administration of any such deferral program.

(e) Award Exchange Programs. The Administrator
may establish one or more programs under the Plan to permit selected Grantees to exchange an Award under the Plan for one or more other types of Awards under the Plan on such terms and conditions as established by the Administrator from time to
time.

(f) Early Exercise. The Award may, but need not, include a provision whereby the Grantee may elect at any time while an
Employee Director or Consultant to exercise any part or all of the Award prior to full vesting of the Award. Any unvested Shares received pursuant to such exercise may be subject to a repurchase right in favor of the Company or to any other
restriction the Administrator determines to be appropriate.

(g) Term of Award. The term of each Award shall be the term stated in
the Award Agreement, provided, however, that the term of an Incentive Stock Option shall be no more than ten (10) years from the date of grant thereof. However, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a Grantee who, at the time the
Option is granted, owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, the term of the Incentive Stock Option shall be five (5) years from the
date of grant thereof or such shorter term as may be provided in the Award Agreement.

(h) Transferability of Awards. Incentive
Stock Options may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution and may be exercised, during the lifetime of the Grantee, only by the Grantee;
provided, however, that Grantee may designate a beneficiary of the Grantees Incentive Stock Option in the event of the Grantees death on a beneficiary designation form approved by the Administrator. Other Awards shall be transferable to
the extent provided in the Award Agreement.

(i) Time of Granting Awards. The date of grant of an Award shall for all purposes be
the date on which the Administrator makes the determination to grant such Award, or such other date as is determined by the Administrator. Notice of the grant determination shall be given to each Employee, Director or Consultant to whom an Award is
so granted within a reasonable time after the date of such grant.

(j) Individual Option and SAR Limit. The maximum number of Shares
with respect to which Options and SARs may be granted to any Employee in any fiscal year of the Company shall be one million (1,000,000) Shares.The foregoing limitation shall be adjusted proportionately in connection with any change in
the Companys capitalization pursuant to Section 10, below. To the extent required by Section 162(m) of the Code or the regulations thereunder, in applying the foregoing limitation with respect to an Employee, if any Option or SAR is
canceled, the canceled Option or SAR shall continue to count against the maximum number of Shares with respect to which Options and SARs may be granted to the Employee. For



8



---

this purpose, the repricing of an Option (or in the case of a SAR, the base amount on which the stock appreciation is
calculated is reduced to reflect a reduction in the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock) shall be treated as the cancellation of the existing Option or SAR and the grant of a new Option or SAR.

7. Award Exercise or Purchase Price, Consideration, Taxes and Reload Options.

(a) Exercise or Purchase Price. The exercise or purchase price, if any, for an Award shall be as follows:

(i) In the case of an Incentive Stock Option:

(A) granted to an Employee who, at the time of the grant of such Incentive Stock Option owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, the per
Share exercise price shall be not less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.

(B) granted to any Employee other than an Employee described in the preceding paragraph, the per Share exercise price shall be not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.

(ii) In the case of Awards intended to qualify as Performance-Based Compensation, the exercise or purchase price, if any, shall be not
less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.

(iii) In the case of other Awards,
such price as is determined by the Administrator.

(b) Consideration. Subject to Applicable Laws, the consideration to be paid for
the Shares to be issued upon exercise or purchase of an Award including the method of payment, shall be determined by the Administrator (and, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option, shall be determined at the time of grant). In addition to any
other types of consideration the Administrator may determine, the Administrator is authorized to accept as consideration for Shares issued under the Plan the following:

(i) cash;

(ii) check;

(iii) delivery of Grantees promissory note with such recourse, interest, security, and redemption provisions as the Administrator determines as appropriate;

(iv) surrender of Shares or delivery of a properly executed form of attestation of ownership of Shares as the Administrator may require (including
withholding of Shares otherwise deliverable upon exercise of the Award) which have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender or attestation equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Shares as to which



9



---

said Award shall be exercised (but only to the extent that such exercise of the Award would not result in an accounting
compensation charge with respect to the Shares used to pay the exercise price unless otherwise determined by the Administrator);

(v)
delivery of a properly executed exercise notice together with such other documentation as the Administrator and the broker, if applicable, shall require to effect an exercise of the Award and delivery to the Company of the sale or loan proceeds
required to pay the exercise price; or

(vi) any combination of the foregoing methods of payment.

(c) Taxes. No Shares shall be delivered under the Plan to any Grantee or other person until such Grantee or other person has made arrangements
acceptable to the Administrator for the satisfaction of any foreign, federal, state, or local income and employment tax withholding obligations, including, without limitation, obligations incident to the receipt of Shares or the disqualifying
disposition of Shares received on exercise of an Incentive Stock Option. Upon exercise of an Award, the Company shall withhold or collect from Grantee an amount sufficient to satisfy such tax obligations.

(d) Reload Options. In the event the exercise price or tax withholding of an Option is satisfied by the Company or the Grantees employer
withholding Shares otherwise deliverable to the Grantee, the Administrator may issue the Grantee an additional Option, with terms identical to the Award Agreement under which the Option was exercised, but at an exercise price as determined by the
Administrator in accordance with the Plan.

8. Exercise of Award.

(a) Procedure for Exercise; Rights as a Stockholder.

(i) Any Award granted hereunder shall be exercisable at such times and under such conditions as determined by the Administrator under the terms of the Plan and specified in the Award Agreement.

(ii) An Award shall be deemed to be exercised when written notice of such exercise has been given to the Company in accordance with the terms of the
Award by the person entitled to exercise the Award and full payment for the Shares with respect to which the Award is exercised has been received by the Company. Until the issuance (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company
or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company) of the stock certificate evidencing such Shares, no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a stockholder shall exist with respect to Shares subject to an Award,
notwithstanding the exercise of an Option or other Award. The Company shall issue (or cause to be issued) such stock certificate promptly upon exercise of the Award. No adjustment will be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date
is prior to the date the stock certificate is issued, except as provided in the Award Agreement or Section 10, below.



10



---

(b) Exercise of Award Following Termination of Employment, Director or Consulting Relationship.

(i) An Award may not be exercised after the termination date of such Award set forth in the Award Agreement and may be exercised following
the termination of a Grantees Continuous Status as an Employee, Director or Consultant only to the extent provided in the Award Agreement.

(ii) Where the Award Agreement permits a Grantee to exercise an Award following the termination of the Grantees Continuous Status as an Employee, Director or Consultant for a specified period, the Award shall terminate to the extent
not exercised on the last day of the specified period or the last day of the original term of the Award, whichever occurs first.

(iii)
Any Award designated as an Incentive Stock Option to the extent not exercised within the time permitted by law for the exercise of Incentive Stock Options following the termination of a Grantees Continuous Status as an Employee, Director or
Consultant shall convert automatically to a Non-Qualified Stock Option and thereafter shall be exercisable as such to the extent exercisable by its terms for the period specified in the Award Agreement.

(c) Buyout Provisions. The Administrator may at any time offer to buy out for a payment in cash or Shares, an Award previously granted, based on
such terms and conditions as the Administrator shall establish and communicate to the Grantee at the time that such offer is made.

9.
Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares.

(a) Shares shall not be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Award unless the exercise of such
Award and the issuance and delivery of such Shares pursuant thereto shall comply with all Applicable Laws, and shall be further subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such compliance.

(b) As a condition to the exercise of an Award, the Company may require the person exercising such Award to represent and warrant at the time of any such
exercise that the Shares are being purchased only for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such Shares if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation is required by any Applicable Laws.

10. Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization. Subject to any required action by the stockholders of the Company, the number of Shares covered
by each outstanding Award, the maximum number of Shares with respect to which Options and SARs may be granted to any Employee in any fiscal year of the Company, and the number of Shares which have been authorized for issuance under the Plan but as
to which no Awards have yet been granted or which have been returned to the Plan (including the fixed Share limit on the annual increase in the number of Shares available for issuance under the Plan), as well as the price per share of Common Stock
covered by each such outstanding Award, shall be proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock resulting from a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination or reclassification
of the Common Stock,



11



---

or any other similar event resulting in an increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock. Except as
expressly provided herein, no issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason hereof shall be made with respect to, the number or price
of Shares subject to an Award.

11. Corporate Transactions/Changes in Control/Subsidiary Dispositions. Except as may be provided in
an Award Agreement:

(a) Effective upon the consummation of a Corporate Transaction, all outstanding Awards under the Plan shall terminate
unless assumed by the successor company or its Parent. For the purposes of this subsection, the Award shall be considered assumed if, following the Corporate Transaction, the Award confers, for each Share subject to the Award immediately prior to
the Corporate Transaction, (i) the consideration (whether stock, cash, or other securities or property) received in the Corporate Transaction by holders of Common Stock for each Share subject to the Award held on the effective date of the
Corporate Transaction (and if holders were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding Shares), or (ii) the right to purchase such consideration in the case of an Option or
similar Award; provided, however, that if such consideration received in the Corporate Transaction was not solely common stock of the successor corporation or its Parent, the Administrator may, with the consent of the successor corporation, provide
for the consideration to be received upon the exercise or exchange of the Award for each Share subject to the Award to be solely common stock of the successor corporation or its Parent equal in fair market value to the per share consideration
received by holders of Common Stock in the Corporate Transaction.

(b) In the event of a Change in Control (other than a Change in Control
which also is a Corporate Transaction), each Award which is at the time outstanding under the Plan shall remain exercisable until the expiration or sooner termination of the applicable Award term.

(c) In the event of a Subsidiary Disposition, each Award with respect to those Grantees who are at the time engaged primarily in Continuous Status as an
Employee or Consultant with the subsidiary corporation involved in such Subsidiary Disposition which is at the time outstanding under the Plan shall remain so exercisable until the expiration or sooner termination of the Award term.

12. Term of Plan. The Plan shall become effective upon the earlier to occur of its adoption by the Board or its approval by the stockholders of
the Company. It shall continue in effect for a term of ten (10) years unless sooner terminated.

13. Amendment, Suspension or
Termination of the Plan.

(a) The Board may at any time amend, suspend or terminate the Plan. To the extent necessary to comply with
Applicable Laws, the Company shall obtain stockholder approval of any Plan amendment in such a manner and to such a degree as required.



12



---

(b) No Award may be granted during any suspension of the Plan or after termination of the Plan.

(c) Any amendment, suspension or termination of the Plan shall not affect Awards already granted, and such Awards shall remain in full
force and effect as if the Plan had not been amended, suspended or terminated, unless mutually agreed otherwise between the Grantee and the Administrator, which agreement must be in writing and signed by the Grantee and the Company.

14. Reservation of Shares.

(a) The
Company, during the term of the Plan, will at all times reserve and keep available such number of Shares as shall be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the Plan.

(b) The inability of the Company to obtain authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction, which authority is deemed by the Companys counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares
hereunder, shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such Shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained.

15. No Effect on Terms of Employment. The Plan shall not confer upon any Grantee any right with respect to continuation of employment or
consulting relationship with the Company, nor shall it interfere in any way with his or her right or the Companys right to terminate his or her employment or consulting relationship at any time, with or without cause.

16. Stockholder Approval. The Plan became effective when adopted by the Board on March 19, 1997, and was approved by the Companys
stockholders on March 31, 1997. On May 13, 1998, the Board adopted and approved an amendment and restatement of the Plan (a) to include Incentive Stock Options within the class of Awards subject to the formula for determining the
maximum aggregate number of Shares that may be issued pursuant to Awards under the Plan, (b) to place a cap on the annual increase in such maximum aggregate number of Shares determined under the formula, (c) to permit the grant of
Incentive Stock Options with respect to the two million two hundred sixty nine thousand six hundred fifty eight (2,269,658) Shares that became available for issuance under the Plan pursuant to the formula on January 2, 1998 and (d) to
adopt a limit on the maximum number of Shares with respect to which Options and SARs may be granted to any Employee in any fiscal year of the Company and certain other administrative provisions to comply with the performance-based compensation
exception to the deduction limit of Section 162(m) of the Code (collectively, the Amendments), such Amendments conditioned upon and not to take effect until stockholder approval of the Amendments is obtained.

BEA SYSTEMS, INC. 1997 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN

RESTRICTED STOCK PURCHASE AWARD AGREEMENT

1. Purchase of Shares. BEA Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the Company), hereby issues and sells to the
Grantee (the Grantee) named in the Notice of Restricted Stock Purchase Award (the Notice), the Total Number of Shares of Common Stock Awarded set forth in the Notice (the Shares) for a Purchase Price per Share set
forth in the Notice (the Total Purchase Price), subject to the Notice, this Restricted Stock Purchase Award Agreement (the Agreement) and the terms and provisions of the Companys 1997 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended
from time to time (the Plan), which is incorporated herein by reference. Payment for the Shares in the amount of the Total Purchase Price set forth in the Notice shall be made to the Company upon execution of the Notice. Unless otherwise
defined herein, the terms defined in the Plan shall have the same defined meanings in this Agreement. All Shares sold hereunder will be deemed issued to the Grantee as fully paid and nonassessable shares, and the Grantee will have the right to vote
the Shares at meetings of the Companys shareholders. The Company shall pay any applicable stock transfer taxes imposed upon the issuance of the Shares to the Grantee hereunder.

2. Method of Payment. Payment of the Total Purchase Price shall be by any of the following, or a combination thereof, at the election of the
Grantee; provided, however, that such payment method does not then violate an Applicable Law and, provided further, that the portion of the Total Purchase Price equal to the par value of the Shares must be paid in cash or other legal consideration
permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law:

(a) cash; or

(b) check.

3. Transfer
Restrictions. The Shares sold to the Grantee hereunder may not be sold, transferred by gift, pledged, hypothecated, or otherwise transferred or disposed of by the Grantee prior to the date when the Shares become vested pursuant to the Vesting
Schedule set forth in the Notice. Any attempt to transfer Restricted Shares in violation of this Section 3 will be null and void and will be disregarded.

4. Escrow of Stock. For purposes of facilitating the enforcement of the provisions of this Agreement, the Grantee agrees, immediately upon receipt of the certificate(s) for the Restricted Shares, to
deliver such certificate(s), together with an Assignment Separate from Certificate in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, executed in blank by the Grantee and the Grantees spouse (if required for transfer) with respect to each
such stock certificate, to the Secretary or Assistant Secretary of the Company, or their designee, to hold in escrow for so long as such Restricted Shares have not vested pursuant to the Vesting Schedule set forth in the Notice, with the authority
to take all such actions and to effectuate all such transfers and/or releases as may be necessary or appropriate to accomplish the objectives of this Agreement in



16



---

accordance with the terms hereof. The Grantee hereby acknowledges that the appointment of the Secretary or Assistant
Secretary of the Company (or their designee) as the escrow holder hereunder with the stated authorities is a material inducement to the Company to make this Agreement and that such appointment is coupled with an interest and is accordingly
irrevocable. The Grantee agrees that such escrow holder shall not be liable to any party hereto (or to any other party) for any actions or omissions unless such escrow holder is grossly negligent relative thereto. The escrow holder may rely upon any
letter, notice or other document executed by any signature purported to be genuine and may resign at any time. Upon the vesting of all Restricted Shares, the escrow holder will, without further order or instruction, transmit to the Grantee the
certificate evidencing such Shares, subject, however, to satisfaction of any withholding obligations provided in Section 6 below.

5.
Distributions. Except as set forth in Section 9(e), the Company shall disburse to the Grantee all regular cash dividends with respect to the Shares and Additional Securities (whether vested or not), less any applicable withholding
obligations.

6. Withholding of Taxes. The Grantee shall, as Restricted Shares shall vest or at the time withholding is otherwise
required by any Applicable Law, pay the Company the amount necessary to satisfy any applicable foreign, federal, state, and local income and employment tax withholding obligations.

7. Additional Securities. Any securities or cash received (other than a regular cash dividend) as the result of ownership of the Restricted Shares
(the Additional Securities), including, but not by way of limitation, warrants, options and securities received as a stock dividend or stock split, or as a result of a recapitalization or reorganization or other similar change in the
Companys capital structure, shall be retained in escrow in the same manner and subject to the same conditions and restrictions as the Restricted Shares with respect to which they were issued, including, without limitation, the Vesting Schedule
set forth in the Notice. The Grantee shall be entitled to direct the Company to exercise any warrant or option received as Additional Securities upon supplying the funds necessary to do so, in which event the securities so purchased shall constitute
Additional Securities, but the Grantee may not direct the Company to sell any such warrant or option. If Additional Securities consist of a convertible security, the Grantee may exercise any conversion right, and any securities so acquired shall
constitute Additional Securities. Appropriate adjustments to reflect the distribution of Additional Securities shall be made to the price per share to be paid upon the exercise of the Repurchase Right in order to reflect the effect of any such
transaction upon the Companys capital structure. In the event of any change in certificates evidencing the Shares or the Additional Securities by reason of any recapitalization, reorganization or other transaction that results in the creation
of Additional Securities, the escrow holder is authorized to deliver to the issuer the certificates evidencing the Shares or the Additional Securities in exchange for the certificates of the replacement securities.

8. Companys Repurchase Right.

(a) Grant of Repurchase Right. The Company is hereby granted the right (the Repurchase Right), exercisable at any time during the ninety (90) day period (the Share Repurchase Period) following the date
the Grantees Continuous Service terminates for any reason, with or without cause (including death or disability) (the Termination Date) to repurchase all or any portion of the Shares that are deemed Restricted Shares.



17



---

(b) Exercise of the Repurchase Right. The Repurchase Right shall be exercisable by written notice
delivered to the Grantee prior to the expiration of the Share Repurchase Period. The notice shall indicate the number of Shares to be repurchased and the date on which the repurchase is to be effected, such date to be not later than the last day of
the Share Repurchase Period. On the date on which the repurchase is to be effected, the Company and/or its assigns shall pay to the Grantee in cash or cash equivalents (including the cancellation of any purchase-money indebtedness) the Purchase
Price per Share previously paid by the Grantee to the Company for such Shares. Upon such payment to the Grantee or into escrow for the benefit of the Grantee, the Company and/or its assigns shall become the legal and beneficial owner of the Shares
being repurchased and all rights and interest thereon or related thereto, and the Company shall have the right to transfer to its own name or its assigns the number of Shares being repurchased, without further action by the Grantee.

(c) Assignment. Whenever the Company shall have the right to purchase Shares under this Repurchase Right, the Company may designate and assign one
or more employees, officers, directors or shareholders of the Company or other persons or organizations, to exercise all or a part of the Companys Repurchase Right.

(d) Termination of the Repurchase Right. The Repurchase Right shall terminate with respect to any Shares for which it is not timely exercised.

(e) Corporate Transaction. In the event of a Corporate Transaction, this Agreement shall be subject to accelerated vesting provisions and related
provisions of section 5(4) of the Employment Agreement entered into by Charles L. Ill, III and the Company dated January 6, 2003.

9.
Stop-Transfer Notices. In order to ensure compliance with the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Agreement, the Notice or the Plan, the Company may issue appropriate stop transfer instructions to its transfer agent, if
any, and, if the Company transfers its own securities, it may make appropriate notations to the same effect in its own records.

10.
Refusal to Transfer. The Company shall not be required (i) to transfer on its books any Shares that have been sold or otherwise transferred in violation of any of the provisions of this Agreement or (ii) to treat as owner of such
Shares or to accord the right to vote or pay dividends to any purchaser or other transferee to whom such Shares shall have been so transferred.

11. Restrictive Legends. The Grantee understands and agrees that the Company shall cause the legend set forth below or a legend substantially equivalent thereto, to be placed upon any certificate(s) evidencing ownership of the Shares
together with any other legends that may be required by the Company or by state or federal securities laws:

THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS
CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER, A REPURCHASE RIGHT HELD BY THE ISSUER OR ITS

ASSIGNEE(S) AS SET FORTH IN THE RESTRICTED STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE ISSUER AND THE ORIGINAL
HOLDER OF THESE SHARES, A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE ISSUER SUCH TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS ARE BINDING ON TRANSFEREES OF THESE SHARES.

12. Entire Agreement: Governing Law. The Notice, the Plan and this Agreement constitute the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede in their entirety all prior
undertakings and agreements of the Company and the Grantee with respect to the subject matter hereof, and may not be modified adversely to the Grantees interest except by means of a writing signed by the Company and the Grantee. These
agreements are to be construed in accordance with and governed by the internal laws of the State of California without giving effect to any choice of law rule that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the internal
laws of the State of California to the rights and duties of the parties. Should any provision of the Notice or this Agreement be determined by a court of law to be illegal or unenforceable, the other provisions shall nevertheless remain effective
and shall remain enforceable.

13. Headings. The captions used in this Agreement are inserted for convenience and shall not be
deemed a part of this Agreement for construction or interpretation.

14. Dispute Resolution. The provisions of this Section 17
shall be the exclusive means of resolving disputes arising out of or relating to the Notice, the Plan and this Agreement. The Company, the Grantee, and the Grantees assignees (the parties) shall attempt in good faith to resolve any
disputes arising out of or relating to the Notice, the Plan and this Agreement by negotiation between individuals who have authority to settle the controversy. Negotiations shall be commenced by either party by notice of a written statement of the
partys position and the name and title of the individual who will represent the party. Within thirty (30) days of the written notification, the parties shall meet at a mutually acceptable time and place, and thereafter as often as they
reasonably deem necessary, to resolve the dispute. If the dispute has not been resolved by negotiation, the parties agree that any suit, action, or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Notice, the Plan or this Agreement shall be brought in
the United States District Court for the Northern District of California (or should such court lack jurisdiction to hear such action, suit or proceeding, in a California state court in the County of Santa Clara) and that the parties shall submit to
the jurisdiction of such court. The parties irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection the party may have to the laying of venue for any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such court. THE PARTIES ALSO EXPRESSLY
WAIVE ANY RIGHT THEY HAVE OR MAY HAVE TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING. If any one or more provisions of this Section 17 shall for any reason be held invalid or unenforceable, it is the specific intent of the parties that
such provisions shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it or its application valid and enforceable.

15. Notices.
Any notice required or permitted hereunder shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon personal delivery, upon deposit for delivery by an internationally recognized express mail courier service or upon deposit in the United
States mail

(ii) Replaced means that pursuant to a Corporate Transaction the Award is replaced with a comparable stock award or a cash
incentive program of the Company or its Parent which at least preserves the compensation element of such Award existing at the time of the Corporate Transaction and provides for subsequent payout in accordance with the same (or a more favorable)
vesting schedule applicable to such Award. The determination of Award comparability shall be made by the Administrator and its determination shall be final, binding and conclusive.

(iii) Cause means:

(A)
the willful and continued failure of the Grantee to perform substantially the Grantees duties with the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company (other than any such failure resulting from incapacity due to physical or mental
illness), after a written demand for substantial performance is delivered to the Grantee by the Board or the Chief Executive Officer of the Company that specifically identifies the manner in which the Board or the Chief Executive Officer of the
Company believes that the Grantee has not substantially performed the Grantees duties, or



27



---

(B) the willful engaging by the Grantee in illegal conduct or gross misconduct that is materially and
demonstrably injurious to the Company.

For purposes of this Section 4, no act, or failure to act, on the part of the Grantee shall be considered
willful unless it is done, or omitted to be done, by the Grantee in bad faith or without reasonable belief that the Grantees action or omission was in the best interests of the Company. Any act, or failure to act, based upon
authority given pursuant to a resolution duly adopted by the Board or upon the instructions of the Chief Executive Officer of the Company or a senior officer of the Company or based upon the advice of counsel for the Company shall be conclusively
presumed to be done, or omitted to be done, by the Grantee in good faith and in the best interests of the Company. The termination of the Grantees Continuous Status as an Employee, Director or Consultant shall not be deemed to be for Cause
unless and until there shall have been delivered to the Grantee a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of not less than three-quarters of the entire membership of the Board (excluding the Grantee, if the Grantee is a member of
the Board) at a meeting of the Board called and held for such purpose (after reasonable notice is provided to the Grantee and the Grantee is given an opportunity, together with counsel for the Grantee, to be heard before the Board), finding that, in
the good faith opinion of the Board, the Grantee is guilty of the conduct described in Section 4(c)(iii)(A) or 4(c)(iii)(B), and specifying the particulars thereof in detail.

(iv) Corporate Transaction means:

(A) the approval by the stockholders of the Company of a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company;

(B) the acquisition by any individual, entity or group (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act (a Person) of beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the
Exchange Act) of 20% or more of either (i) the then-outstanding shares of common stock of the Company (the Outstanding Company Common Stock) or (ii) the combined voting power of the then-outstanding voting securities of the
Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (the Outstanding Company Voting Securities); provided, however, that, for purposes of this Section 4, the following acquisitions shall not constitute a
Corporate Transaction: (a) any acquisition directly from the Company, (b) any acquisition by the Company, (c) any acquisition by any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Company or any company
controlled by, controlling or under common control with the Company or (d) any acquisition by any corporation pursuant to a transaction that complies with Sections 4(c)(iv)(C)(i), 4(c)(iv)(C)(ii) and 4(c)(iv)(C)(iii) below;

(C) the consummation of a reorganization, merger, statutory share exchange or consolidation or similar corporate transaction involving the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries, a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or the acquisition of assets or stock of another entity by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (each, a Business
Combination), in each case unless, following such Business Combination, (i) all or substantially all of the individuals and entities that were the beneficial owners of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and the Outstanding Company
Voting Securities immediately prior to such Business Combination beneficially own, directly or



28



---

indirectly, more than 50% of the then-outstanding shares of common stock and the combined voting power of the
then-outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, as the case may be, of the corporation resulting from such Business Combination (including, without limitation, a corporation that, as a result of such
transaction, owns the Company or all or substantially all of the Companys assets either directly or through one or more subsidiaries) in substantially the same proportions as their ownership immediately prior to such Business Combination of
the Outstanding Company Common Stock and the Outstanding Company Voting Securities, as the case may be, (ii) no Person (excluding any corporation resulting from such Business Combination or any employee benefit plan (or related trust) of the
Company or such corporation resulting from such Business Combination) beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 20% or more of, respectively, the then-outstanding shares of common stock of the corporation resulting from such Business Combination or
the combined voting power of the then-outstanding voting securities of such corporation, except to the extent that such ownership existed prior to the Business Combination, and (iii) at least a majority of the members of the board of directors
of the corporation resulting from such Business Combination were members of the Incumbent Board at the time of the execution of the initial agreement or of the action of the Board providing for such Business Combination; or

(D) individuals who, as of the Date of Award, constitute the Board (the Incumbent Board) cease for any reason to constitute at least a
majority of the Board; provided, however, that any individual becoming a director subsequent to the Date of Award whose election, or nomination for election by the Companys stockholders, was approved by a vote of at least a
majority of the directors then comprising the Incumbent Board shall be considered as though such individual were a member of the Incumbent Board, but excluding, for this purpose, any such individual whose initial assumption of office occurs as a
result of an actual or threatened election contest with respect to the election or removal of directors or other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a Person other than the Board.

(v) Good Reason means:

(A) the assignment to the Grantee of any duties inconsistent in any respect with the Grantees position (including status, offices, titles and reporting requirements), authority, duties or responsibilities immediately prior to the
Corporate Transaction, or any other diminution in such position, authority, duties or responsibilities (whether or not occurring solely as a result of the Companys ceasing to be a publicly traded entity), excluding for this purpose an
isolated, insubstantial and inadvertent action not taken in bad faith and that is remedied by the Company promptly after receipt of notice thereof given by the Grantee;

(B) a reduction in the Grantees base salary to a level below that in effect at any time within six (6) months preceding the consummation of a Corporate Transaction or at any time thereafter; provided that
an across-the-board reduction in the salary level of substantially all other individuals in positions similar to the Grantees by the same percentage amount shall not constitute such a salary reduction; and



29



---

(C) the Companys requiring the Grantee (i) to be based at any office or location outside a
55-mile radius from the Grantees job location immediately prior to the Corporate Transaction, or (iii) to travel on Company business to a substantially greater extent than required immediately prior to the Corporate Transaction.

For purposes of this Section 4, any good faith determination of Good Reason made by the Grantee shall be conclusive. The Grantees mental or
physical incapacity following the occurrence of an event described above in clauses (A) through (C) shall not affect the Grantees ability to terminate Continuous Status as an Employee, Director or Consultant for Good Reason.

5. Right to Shares. The Grantee shall not have any right in, to or with respect to any of the Shares (including any voting rights
or rights with respect to dividends paid on the Common Stock) issuable under the Award until the Award is settled by the issuance of such Shares to the Grantee.

6. Taxes.

(a) Generally. The Grantee is ultimately liable and responsible for all taxes owed
by the Grantee in connection with the Award, regardless of any action the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company takes with respect to any tax withholding obligations that arise in connection with the Award. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary
of the Company makes any representation or undertaking regarding the treatment of any tax withholding in connection with the grant or vesting of the Award or the subsequent sale of Shares issuable pursuant to the Award. The Company and its
Subsidiaries do not commit and are under no obligation to structure the Award to reduce or eliminate the Grantees tax liability. As a condition and term of this Award, no election under Section 83(b) of the Code may be made by the Grantee
or any other person with respect to all or any portion of the Award.

(b) Payment of Withholding Taxes. Prior to any event in
connection with the Award (e.g., vesting) that the Company determines may result in any tax withholding obligation, whether non-U.S., federal, state or local, including any employment tax obligation (the Tax Withholding Obligation), the
Grantee must arrange for the satisfaction of the minimum amount of such Tax Withholding Obligation in a manner acceptable to the Company.

(i) By Share Withholding. Unless the Company determines to satisfy the Tax Withholding Obligation in accordance with clause (ii) below, the Company shall withhold from those Shares issuable to the Grantee the whole number of
Shares sufficient to satisfy the minimum applicable Tax Withholding Obligation. The Grantee acknowledges that the withheld Shares may not be sufficient to satisfy the Grantees minimum Tax Withholding Obligation. Accordingly, the Grantee agrees
to pay to the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company as soon as practicable, including through additional payroll withholding, any amount of the Tax Withholding Obligation that is not satisfied by the withholding of Shares described above.

(ii) By Sale of Shares. The Grantees acceptance of this Award constitutes the Grantees authorization to the Company
and any brokerage firm determined acceptable to the Company for such purpose to sell on the Grantees behalf a whole number of



30



---

Shares from those Shares issuable to the Grantee as the Company determines to be appropriate to generate cash proceeds
sufficient to satisfy the minimum applicable Tax Withholding Obligation. Such Shares will be sold on the day such Tax Withholding Obligation arises (e.g., a vesting date) or as soon thereafter as practicable. The Grantee will be responsible for all
brokers fees and other costs of sale, and the Grantee agrees to indemnify and hold the Company harmless from any losses, costs, damages, or expenses relating to any such sale. To the extent the proceeds of such sale exceed the Grantees
minimum Tax Withholding Obligation, the Company agrees to pay such excess in cash to the Grantee. The Grantee acknowledges that the Company or its designee is under no obligation to arrange for such sale at any particular price, and that the
proceeds of any such sale may not be sufficient to satisfy the Grantees minimum Tax Withholding Obligation. Accordingly, the Grantee agrees to pay to the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company as soon as practicable, including through
additional payroll withholding, any amount of the Tax Withholding Obligation that is not satisfied by the sale of Shares described above. The sale of Shares may be used by the Company, in the exercise of its discretion (subject to Applicable Laws),
to satisfy the minimum Tax Withholding Obligation of the Grantee.

7. Entire Agreement: Governing Law. The Notice, the Plan and this
Agreement constitute the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede in their entirety all prior undertakings and agreements of the Company and the Grantee with respect to the subject matter hereof, and
may not be modified adversely to the Grantees interest except by means of a writing signed by the Company and the Grantee. These agreements are to be construed in accordance with and governed by the internal laws of the State of California
without giving effect to any choice of law rule that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the internal laws of the State of California to the rights and duties of the parties. Should any provision of the Notice or
this Agreement be determined to be illegal or unenforceable, the other provisions shall nevertheless remain effective and shall remain enforceable.

8. Construction. The captions used in the Notice and this Agreement are inserted for convenience and shall not be deemed a part of the Agreement for construction or interpretation. Except when otherwise indicated by the context, the
singular shall include the plural and the plural shall include the singular. Use of the term or is not intended to be exclusive, unless the context clearly requires otherwise.

9. Administration and Interpretation. Any question or dispute regarding the administration or interpretation of the Notice, the Plan or this
Agreement shall be submitted by the Grantee or by the Company to the Administrator. The resolution of such question or dispute by the Administrator shall be final and binding on all persons.

10. Venue and Waiver of Jury Trial. The Company, the Grantee, and the Grantees assignees pursuant to Section 2 (the
parties) agree that any suit, action, or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Notice, the Plan or this Agreement shall be brought in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California (or should such court
lack jurisdiction to hear such action, suit or proceeding, in a California state court in the County of San Francisco) and that the parties shall submit to the jurisdiction of such court. The parties irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, any objection the party may have to the laying of venue for



31



---

any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such court. THE PARTIES ALSO EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT THEY HAVE OR MAY
HAVE TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING. If any one or more provisions of this Section 10 shall for any reason be held invalid or unenforceable, it is the specific intent of the parties that such provisions shall be modified
to the minimum extent necessary to make it or its application valid and enforceable.

11. Notices. Any notice required or permitted
hereunder shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon personal delivery, upon deposit for delivery by an internationally recognized express mail courier service or upon deposit in the United States mail by certified mail (if
the parties are within the United States), with postage and fees prepaid, addressed to the other party at its address as shown in these instruments, or to such other address as such party may designate in writing from time to time to the other
party.

12. Data Privacy. The Grantee hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in
electronic or other form, of the Grantees personal data as described in this Agreement by and among, as applicable, the Grantees employer, the Company, its Subsidiaries and its affiliates for the exclusive purpose of implementing,
administering and managing the Grantees participation in the Plan. The Grantee understands that the Company and the Grantees employer may hold certain personal information about the Grantee, including, but not limited to, the
Grantees name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social security/insurance number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any shares of Common Stock or directorships held in the Company, details of all
awards or any other entitlement to shares awarded, canceled, vested, unvested or outstanding in the Grantees favor, for the purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Plan (Data). The Grantee understands that 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 Grantees country, or elsewhere, and that the recipients country may have
different data privacy laws and protections than the Grantees country. The Grantee understands that the Grantee may request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Data by contacting the Grantees local
human resources representative. The Grantee authorizes the recipients to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the purposes of implementing, administering and managing the Grantees participation
in the Plan, including any requisite transfer of such Data as may be required to a broker, escrow agent or other third party with whom the Shares received upon vesting of the Units may be deposited. The Grantee understands that Data will be held
only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage the Grantees participation in the Plan. The Grantee understands that the Grantee may, at any time, view Data, request additional information about the storage and processing of
Data, require any necessary amendments to Data or refuse or withdraw the consents herein, in any case without cost, by contacting in writing the Grantees local human resources representative. The Grantee understands that refusal or withdrawal
of consent may affect the Grantees ability to participate in the Plan. For more information on the consequences of the Grantees refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, the Grantee understands that the Grantee may contact the
Grantees local human resources representative.

Should all the individual Primary Beneficiary(ies) fail to survive me or if the trust named as the
Primary Beneficiary does not exist at my death (or no will of mine containing a residuary trust is admitted to probate within six months of my death), the Contingent Beneficiary(ies) shall be entitled to my interest in the Units for the shares
indicated. Should any individual beneficiary fail to survive me or a charity named as a beneficiary no longer exist at my death, such beneficiarys share shall be divided among the remaining named Primary or Contingent Beneficiaries, as
appropriate, in proportion to the percentage shares I have allocated to them. In the event that no Individual Primary Beneficiary(ies) or Contingent Beneficiary(ies) survives me, no trust (excluding a residuary testamentary trust) or charity named
as a Primary Beneficiary or Contingent Beneficiary exists at my death, and no will of mine containing a residuary trust is admitted to probate within six months of my death, then my interest in the Units shall be disposed of by my will or the laws
of intestate succession, as applicable.

This Beneficiary Designation is effective regardless of whether I have deferred receipt of any or
all of the Units. This Beneficiary Designation is effective until I file another such designation with BEA Systems, Inc. Any previous Beneficiary Designations are hereby revoked.

Restricted Stock Units  Frequently Asked Questions



|1) | What is a Restricted Stock Unit? A Restricted Stock Unit is a promise to issue stock in the future. The stock is not issued or outstanding until both the vesting and the
release of the shares have occurred. Vesting and release can occur at the same time or at different times, however, at BEA the vesting and release will be at the same time  2 cliff vest dates, 50% at each 12-month anniversary. At BEA, one Unit
is defined as one share of common stock.
|-- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|2) | What is the difference between Restricted Stock and a Restricted Stock Unit?The primary differences are related to timing. With Restricted Stock Awards, the stock is issued
at the time of grant and held in escrow until it is vested. Ownership and dividend rights occur at the time of grant. The taxation of Restricted Stock may occur at time of grant or upon vest  at the employees determination. The employee
may choose to take the tax hit at the time of grant by filing an 83(b) election and paying the related taxes. This election is risky and there is no relief if the employee leaves prior to the vesting. If the election is not timely filed, then the
tax liability will occur at the time of vesting. In addition, there is a risk of forfeiture until the vesting period has lapsed.
|-- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

By comparison, when an employee receives a Restricted Stock Unit award, the stock is not issued or held until the vest/release date. Consequently, it is the vest/release of the shares, which triggers the tax
liability as well as the ownership and dividend rights. Restricted Stock Units are more simplified from a tax impact because the liability will only occur when the stock is delivered and recipients do not have to take the risk of choosing the tax
event date.



|3) | How does the Restricted Stock Unit work?In the most simplified terms, the RSU will work as follows: 1) The Restricted Stock Unit is awarded to the employee who signs
and returns the agreement to Stock Admin. 2) One year later, on the first anniversary of the award date, 50% of the shares will be released to the employee upon payment of the tax liability. 3) The employee now has ownership rights and
the capital gains holding period begins for the first 50% of the award. If the employee leaves prior to the vest date, no shares are released. 4) On the 2ndanniversary, the remaining 50% of shares are released - following the payment of the tax liability. If the employee leaves the company prior to the vest date, then the shares are not released.
|-- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|4) | Am I required to sign and return the Restricted Stock Unit Agreement? Yes, all employees are required to sign and return to Stock Administration. The signed agreement may be
faxed or mailed; however, it is not necessary to send via priority or overnight mail delivery.
|-- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|5) | Do I have to pay for the stock? No, there is no price per share. The only payment due upon vest/release date of the stock is the taxes.
|-- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|6) | What is the tax impact of the RSU? Ordinary income taxes are due on the day of vesting. The liability is equal to the fair market value on the date of vest, times the number
of shares vested. The taxes are due on this day - no exceptions permitted. (See the attached examples.) The holding period for Long-Term Capital Gains treatment begins with the issuance of the stock.
|-- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|7) | Can I choose how and when to pay the taxes? No, the total amount due for taxes will be settled by a forced sale of the stock on the day of vest. Stock Administration will
work with the broker to ensure that the correct numbers of shares necessary are sold. Employees will have the remaining shares deposited into their account.
|-- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|8) | Will I be required to hold the shares for a specified period of time? No, BEA does not place holding requirements on the stock once the tax liabilities are settled. The
remaining stock may be held or sold at the employees discretion.
|-- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|9) | Will I have access to the view the RSU on-line?Yes, the RSU will be visible on-line through Etrade only. This broker is the only one with the capability to show these
awards. You may also request a copy of your statement from Stock Administration.
|-- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|10) | When will I receive the stock? The stock will be released to your captive broker as soon as it has vested. The award will vest in two separate cliff increments, 50% on each
of two 12-month anniversaries.

BEA SYSTEMS, INC. 1997 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT

Grant of Option. BEA grants to the Optionee the Option as set forth in the Notice. If designated in the Notice as an Incentive Stock Option (ISO), the
Option is intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option as defined in Section 422 of the Code. Nevertheless, to the extent that it exceeds the $100,000 rule of Section 422(d) of the Code, the Option shall be treated as a Non-Qualified
Stock Option.

Exercise of Option.

Right to Exercise. The Option shall be exercisable during its term in accordance with the Vesting Schedule set out in the Notice. The Option shall be subject to the provisions of Section 11 of the
Plan relating to the exercisability or termination of the Option in the event of a Corporate Transaction, Change in Control or Subsidiary Disposition. No partial exercise of the Option may be for less than 5 percent of the Number of Shares subject
to the option or the remaining Number of Shares subject to the Option. In no event shall the Company issue fractional Shares. The number of Shares exercisable on a given day is the total number of Shares vested on that day less the total number of
Shares previously exercised.

Method of Exercise. The Option shall be exercisable only by delivery of an Exercise Form (available on
BEAs Internal Web - Administration, Stock Information, Employee Stock Option Plan). The Exercise Form shall be signed by the Optionee and delivered to the person indicated on the Exercise Form accompanied by payment, when appropriate, of the
Exercise Price.

Taxes. No Shares will be issued to the Optionee or other person pursuant to the exercise of the Option until the Optionee or
other person has made arrangements acceptable to the Administrator for the satisfaction of foreign, federal, state and local income and employment tax withholding obligations, if any.

Method of Payment. Payment of the Exercise Price shall be in U.S. dollars to BEA by any of the following, or a combination thereof, at the election of the Optionee; provided, however, that such exercise
method does not then violate an Applicable Law: personal check, bank draft, postal or express money order, or a same-day sale exercise through Alex. Brown & Sons or other brokerage firm determined by the Administrator.

Change in Relationship.

Leave
of Absence. During any authorized leave of absence, the vesting of the Option as provided in the Vesting Schedule shall cease after the leave of absence exceeds 90 days. Vesting of the Option shall resume upon the Optionees termination
of the leave and return to service with BEA or a Related Entity. Notwithstanding the forgoing two sentences, during any authorized Personal Leave of Absence the vesting of the Option as provided in the Vesting Schedule shall cease upon the
Optionees start of such leave and shall resume upon the termination of such leave and the Optionees return to service with BEA or a Related Entity, and no credit shall be given for any time that would otherwise have contributed to
vesting during such leave. The policies and practices contained in this document may not conflict with statutory requirements in any country to which an employee is assigned. In the event of a conflict, host-country statutory requirements will
prevail. Situations not specifically included in these guidelines will be treated according to local custom and competitive practice.

Change in
Status. In the event of the Optionees change in status from Employee to Consultant or Consultant to Employee, the Option shall remain in effect. However, when the change in status is from Employee to Consultant, the vesting of the
Option shall continue only to the extent determined by the Administrator and the Optionees Incentive Stock Option shall cease to be treated as an Incentive Stock Option and shall be treated as a Non-Qualified Stock Option on the day 3 months
and one day following such change in status.

Termination. In the event the Optionees Continuous Status as an Employee,
Director or Consultant terminates for reasons other than disability or death, the Optionee may, to the extent otherwise so entitled at the date of such termination (the Termination Date), exercise the Option within 3 months from the
Termination Date (but in no event later than the Expiration Date).

Disability. In the event the Optionees Continuous Status as an
Employee, Director or Consultant terminates as a result of his or her disability, the Optionee may, but only within 12 months from the Termination Date (and in no event later than the Expiration Date), exercise the Option to the extent otherwise
entitled to exercise it on the Termination Date; provided, however, that if such disability is not a disability as defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code and the Option is an Incentive Stock Option, such Incentive Stock Option
shall cease to be treated as an Incentive Stock Option and shall be treated as a Non-Qualified Stock Option on the day 3 months and one day following the Termination Date.

Death. In the event of the Optionees death, the Option may be exercised at any time within 12 months following the date of death (and in no event later than the Expiration Date), by the
Optionees estate or by a person who acquired the right to exercise the Option by bequest or inheritance, but only to the extent the Optionee could exercise the Option at the date of death. In addition, for Options granted after
February 1, 2002, if the Optionees death is a result of an incident that is work related, whereas work related encompasses business travel and the performance of ones duties in a business setting, any unvested shares as
of the date of Death will be accelerated to fully vested status. In cases where it is unclear whether an incident is work related, the final determination will be made by the Board of Directors.

Term of Option. The Option may be exercised no later than the Expiration Date set forth in the Notice. To the extent that the Optionee was not entitled to
exercise the Option on the Termination Date or on the date of death, or if the Option is not exercised within the time specified above, the Option shall terminate.

Transferability of Option. The Option, if an Incentive Stock Option, may not be transferred in any manner other
than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution and may be exercised during the lifetime of the Optionee only by the Optionee. The Option, if a Non-Qualified Stock Option, may be transferred by the Optionee in a manner and to the extent
acceptable to the Administrator as evidenced by a writing signed by BEA and the Optionee. The terms of the Option shall be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs and successors of the Optionee.

Interpretation. Any dispute regarding the interpretation of the Notice, the Plan, and this Option Agreement shall be submitted by the Optionee or by BEA to the
Board or the Administrator that administers the Plan, which shall review such dispute at its next regular meeting. The resolution of such dispute by the Board or the Administrator shall be final and binding on all persons.

No Effect on Employment or Consultancy. The vesting of Shares is earned only by continuing employment or consultancy at the will of BEA (not through being hired,
being granted the Option or acquiring Shares). Nothing in the Notice, Option Agreement or the Plan shall confer upon the Optionee any right with respect to continuation of employment or consultancy by BEA, nor shall it interfere in any way with the
Optionees right or BEAs right to terminate the Optionees employment or consultancy at any time, with or without cause.

Entire
Agreement: Governing Law. The Notice, the Plan, and this Option Agreement constitute the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter and supersede in their entirety all prior undertakings and agreements of BEA and the
Optionee with respect to the subject matter in the Agreement, and may not be modified adversely to the Optionees interest except by means of a writing signed by BEA and the Optionee. These instruments are governed by California law except for
that body of law pertaining to conflict of laws.
