	II.	 	AGREEMENT

	 	A.	 	Grant of Option.

               The Administrator hereby grants to the individual named in the Notice of Stock Option Grant
(the “Notice of Grant”) attached as Part I of this Award Agreement (the “Participant”) an option
(the “Option”) to purchase the number of Shares, as set forth in the Notice of Grant, at the
exercise price per share set forth in the Notice of Grant (the “Exercise Price”), subject to the
terms and conditions of this Award Agreement and the Plan, which is incorporated herein by
reference. Subject to Section 20(c) of the Plan, in the event of a conflict between the terms and
conditions of the Plan and the terms and conditions of this Award Agreement, the terms and
conditions of the Plan will prevail.

	 	B.	 	Exercise of Option.

               1. Right to Exercise. This Option is exercisable during its term in accordance with
the Vesting Schedule set out in the Notice of Grant and the applicable provisions of the Plan and
this Award Agreement.

               2. Method of Exercise. This Option is exercisable by delivery of an exercise notice,
in the form attached as Exhibit B (the “Exercise Notice”) or in such other form and manner as
determined by the Administrator, which will state the election to exercise the Option, the number
of Shares in respect of which the Option is being exercised (the “Exercised Shares”), and such
other representations and agreements as may be required by the Company pursuant to the provisions
of the Plan. The Exercise Notice will be completed by Participant and delivered to the Company. The
Exercise Notice will be accompanied by payment of the aggregate Exercise Price as to all Exercised
Shares together with any Tax-Related Items (as defined in Section F). This Option will be deemed
to be exercised upon receipt by the Company of such fully executed Exercise Notice accompanied by
such aggregate Exercise Price or irrevocable instructions to complete a cashless exercise if
permitted by the Company.

               No Shares will be issued pursuant to the exercise of this Option unless such issuance and
exercise comply with Applicable Laws.

	 	C.	 	Method of Payment.

               Payment of the aggregate Exercise Price will be by any of the following, or a combination
thereof, at the election of Participant:

               1. cash;

               2. check; or

               3. consideration received by the Company under a formal cashless exercise program adopted by
the Company in connection with the Plan.

2

 

	 	D.	 	Non-Transferability of Option.

               This Option may not be transferred in any manner otherwise than by will or by the Applicable
Law and may be exercised during the lifetime of Participant only by Participant.

	 	E.	 	Term of Option.

               1. Option Expiration. This Option may be exercised only within the term set out in the
Notice of Grant and this Section E, and may be exercised during such term only in accordance with
the Plan and the terms of this Award Agreement.

               2. Post-Termination Period. This Option, to the extent vested, shall be exercisable
for three (3) months after Participant ceases to be a Service Provider, unless such termination is
due to Participant’s death or Disability, in which case this Option shall be exercisable, to the
extent vested, for one (1) year after Participant ceases to be a Service Provider. Participant
will be deemed to cease to be a Service Provider as of the last date of his or her active
employment or service, which date shall not be extended by any notice of termination or similar
period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event may this Option be exercised after the
Term/Expiration Date as provided in the Notice of Grant and may be subject to earlier termination
as provided in Section 15(c) of the Plan.

	 	F.	 	Tax Obligations/Withholding Authorization.

               Regardless of any action the Company or Participant’s employer (the “Employer”) takes with
respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other
tax-related items related to Participant’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to
Participant (“Tax-Related Items”), Participant acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all
Tax-Related Items is and remains his or her responsibility and may exceed the amount actually
withheld by the Company or the Employer. Participant further acknowledges that the Company and/or
the Employer (1) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related
Items in connection with any aspect of the Option grant, including, but not limited to, the grant,
vesting or exercise of the Option, the issuance of Shares pursuant to the exercise of the Option,
and the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such exercise and the receipt of any
dividends; and (2) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant
or any aspect of the Option to reduce or eliminate Participant’s liability for Tax-Related Items or
achieve any particular tax result. Further, if Participant has become subject to tax in more than
one jurisdiction between the date of grant and the date of any relevant taxable or tax withholding
event, as applicable, Participant acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former
employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than
one jurisdiction.

               Prior to any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, Participant will pay or
make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all
Tax-Related Items. In this regard, Participant authorizes the Company and/or the Employer, or
their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy the obligations with regard to all
Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following: (1) withholding from Participant’s
wages or other cash compensation paid to Participant by the Company or the Employer; (2)
withholding from proceeds of the sale of Shares acquired upon exercise of the Option either through
a voluntary sale or through

3

 

a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on Participant’s behalf pursuant to this
authorization); or (3) withholding in Shares to be issued upon exercise of the Option.

               To avoid negative accounting treatment or for any other reason, as determined by the Company
in its sole discretion, the Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering
applicable minimum statutory withholding amounts or other applicable withholding rates. If the
obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in Shares, for tax purposes,
Participant is deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject to the Option,
notwithstanding that a number of the Shares is held back solely for the purpose of paying the
Tax-Related Items due as a result of any aspect of Participant’s participation in the Plan.

               Further, Participant shall pay to the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items
that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for as a result of
Participant’s participation in the Plan or Participant’s purchase of Shares that cannot be
satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to honor the exercise and
refuse to deliver the Shares or the proceeds of the sale of Shares to the Partcipant, if
Participant fails to comply with Participant’s obligations in connection with the Tax-Related
Items.

               Finally, to the extent Participant is or becomes subject to U.S. Federal income taxation, this
paragraph shall apply. Under Code Section 409A, an option that was granted with a per share
exercise price that is determined by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) to be less than
the fair market value of a Share on the date of grant (a “discount option”) may be considered
“deferred compensation.” An option that is a “discount option” may result in (i) income
recognition by the Participant prior to the exercise of the option, (ii) an additional twenty
percent (20%) U.S. Federal income tax, and (iii) potential penalty and interest charges. The
“discount option” may also result in additional U.S. state income, penalty and interest charges to
the Participant. Participant acknowledges that the Company cannot and has not guaranteed that the
IRS will agree that the per share exercise price of this Option equals or exceeds the fair market
value of a Share on the date of grant in a later examination. Participant agrees that if the IRS
determines that the Option was granted with a per share exercise price that was less than the fair
market value of a Share of Common Stock on the date of grant, Participant will be solely
responsible for Participant’s costs related to such a determination.

	 	G.	 	Nature of Grant.

               In accepting the grant, Participant acknowledges, understands and agrees that: (1) the Plan is
established voluntarily by the Company, it is discretionary in nature and it may be modified,
amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time; (2) the grant of the Option is
voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future
grants of options, or benefits in lieu of options, even if options have been granted repeatedly in
the past; (3) all decisions with respect to future option grants, if any, will be at the sole
discretion of the Company; (4) Participant is voluntarily participating in the Plan; (5) the Option
and Shares subject to the Option are extraordinary items that do not constitute compensation of any
kind for services of any kind rendered to the Company, the Employer or any Subsidiary or affiliate
of the Company, and which is outside the scope of Participant’s employment contract, if any; (6)
the Option and the Shares subject to the Option are not intended to replace any pension rights or
compensation; (7) the Option and the Shares subject to the Option are not part of normal or
expected compensation or salary for any purposes, including, but not limited to, calculating any
severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, end of service payments, bonuses,
long-service awards,

4

 

pension, retirement or welfare benefits or similar payments and in no event should be
considered as compensation for, or relating in any way to, past services for the Company, the
Employer or any Subsidiary or affiliate of the Company; (8) the Option grant and Participant’s
participation in the Plan will not be interpreted to form an employment or service contract or
relationship with the Company, the Employer or any Subsidiary or affiliate of the Company; (9) the
future value of the underlying Shares is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty; (10) if
the underlying Shares do not increase in value, the Option will have no value; (11) if Participant
exercises his or her Option and obtain Shares, the value of those Shares acquired upon exercise may
increase or decrease in value, even below the Exercise Price; (12) no claim or entitlement to
compensation or damages shall arise from forfeiture of the Option resulting from termination of
Participant’s employment by the Company or the Employer (for any reason whatsoever and whether or
not in breach of local labor laws), and in consideration of the grant of the Option to which
Participant is otherwise not entitled, Participant irrevocably agrees never to institute any claim
against the Company or the Employer, waive his or her ability, if any, to bring any such claim, and
release the Company and the Employer from any such claim; if, notwithstanding the foregoing, any
such claim is allowed by a court of competent jurisdiction, then, by participating in the Plan,
Participant shall be deemed irrevocably to have agreed not to pursue such claim and agree to
execute any and all documents necessary to request dismissal or withdrawal of such claims; and (13)
in the event of termination of Participant’s employment or service (whether or not in breach of
local labor laws), Participant’s right to receive an Option and vest in the Option under the Plan,
if any, will terminate effective as of the date that Participant is no longer actively employed or
in service and will not be extended by any notice period mandated under local law (e.g., active
employment or service would not include a period of “garden leave” or similar period pursuant to
local law); furthermore, in the event of termination of employment or service (whether or not in
breach of local labor laws), Participant’s right to exercise the Option after termination of
employment or service as set forth in Section E.2. above, will be measured by the date of
termination of Participant’s active employment or service and will not be extended by any notice
period mandated under local law; the Board/Committee shall have the exclusive discretion to
determine when Participant is no longer actively employed or in service for purposes of
Participant’s Option grant.

	 	H.	 	No Advice Regarding Grant.

               The Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company making any
recommendations regarding Participant’s participation in the Plan, or Participant’s acquisition or
sale of the underlying Shares. Participant is hereby advised to consult with his or her own
personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding participation in the Plan before taking any
action related to the Plan.

	 	I.	 	Entire Agreement; Governing Law.

               The Plan is incorporated herein by reference. The Plan and this Award 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 Participant with respect to
the subject matter hereof, and may not be modified adversely to Participant’s interest except by
means of a writing signed by the Company and Participant. The Option and this Award Agreement are
governed by, and subject to, the internal substantive laws, but not the choice of law rules, of
California. For purposes of litigating any dispute that arises directly or indirectly from the
relationship of the parties evidenced by this grant or the Award Agreement, the parties hereby
submit to and consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the State of California and agree that such

5

 

litigation shall be conducted only in the courts of Santa Clara, California, or the federal
courts for the United States for the Northern District of California, and no other courts, where
this grant is made and/or to be performed.

	 	J.	 	NO GUARANTEE OF CONTINUED SERVICE.

               PARTICIPANT ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE VESTING OF SHARES PURSUANT TO THE VESTING
SCHEDULE HEREOF IS EARNED ONLY BY CONTINUING AS AN EMPLOYEE, CONSULTANT OR NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTOR AT
THE WILL OF THE EMPLOYER AND NOT THROUGH THE ACT OF BEING HIRED, BEING GRANTED AN OPTION OR
PURCHASING SHARES HEREUNDER. PARTICIPANT FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THIS AWARD AGREEMENT,
THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER AND THE VESTING SCHEDULE SET FORTH HEREIN DO NOT CONSTITUTE
AN EXPRESS OR IMPLIED PROMISE OF CONTINUED ENGAGEMENT AS AN EMPLOYEE, CONSULTANT OR NON-EMPLOYEE
DIRECTOR FOR THE VESTING PERIOD, FOR ANY PERIOD, OR AT ALL, AND WILL NOT INTERFERE WITH
PARTICIPANT’S RIGHT OR THE RIGHT OF THE EMPLOYER TO TERMINATE PARTICIPANT’S RELATIONSHIP AS AN
EMPLOYEE, CONSULTANT OR NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTOR AT ANY TIME, WITH OR WITHOUT CAUSE TO THE EXTENT
PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.

	 	K.	 	Additional Conditions to Issuance of Stock.

               If at any time the Company will determine, in its discretion, that the listing, registration
or qualification of the Shares upon any securities exchange or under any state, federal or foreign
law, or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory authority is necessary or desirable
as a condition to the issuance of Shares to the Participant (or his or her estate), such issuance
will not occur unless and until such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval will
have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Company. The Company
will make all reasonable efforts to meet the requirements of any such state, federal or foreign law
or securities exchange and to obtain any such consent or approval of any such governmental
authority.

	 	L.	 	Data Privacy.

               Participant hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer,
in electronic or other form, of Participant’s personal data as described in this Award Agreement
and any other Option grant materials by and among, as applicable, the Employer, and the Company and
its Subsidiaries and affiliates for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and
managing Participant’s participation in the Plan.

               Participant understands that the Company and the Employer may hold certain personal
information about Participant, including, but not limited to, Participant’s name, home address and
telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary,
nationality, job title, any shares of stock or directorships held in the Company, details of all
options or any other entitlement to shares of stock awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested
or outstanding in Participant’s favor, for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and
managing the Plan (“Data”).

               Participant understands that Data may be transferred to any third parties assisting the
Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. Participant
understands that the recipients of the Data may be located in the United States of America or
elsewhere, and that the recipient’s country (e.g., the United States of America) may have different
data privacy laws and protections than Participant’s country. Participant understands that she or
he may request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Data by
contacting the Company’s Human Resources department. Participant authorizes the recipients to
receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the sole
purpose of implementing, administering and managing Participant’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 acquired upon exercise of the Option may be deposited. Participant
understands that Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage
Participant’s participation in the Plan. Participant understands that he or she 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 Company’s Human Resources department. Participant understands,
however, that refusing or withdrawing Participant’s consent may affect his or her ability to
participate in the Plan. For more information on the consequences of Participant’s refusal to
consent or withdrawal of consent, Participant understands that Participant may contact the
Company’s Human Resources department.

	 	M.	 	Language.

               If Participant has received this Award Agreement or any other document related to the Plan
translated into a language other than English and if the meaning of the translated version is
different from the English version, the English version will control.

	 	N.	 	Electronic Delivery.

               The Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related to current
and future participation in the Plan by electronic means. Participant hereby consents to receive
such documents by electronic delivery and agrees to participate in the Plan through an on-line or
electronic system established and maintained by the Company or another third party designated by
the Company.

	 	O.	 	Severability.

               The provisions of this Award Agreement are severable and if any one or more provisions are
determined to be illegal or otherwise unenforceable, in whole or in part, the remaining provisions
shall nevertheless be binding and enforceable.

	 	P.	 	Exhibit A.

               Notwithstanding any provisions in this Award Agreement, the Option grant shall be subject to
any special terms and conditions set forth in the Exhibit A to this Award Agreement for
Participant’s country. Moreover, if Participant relocates to one of the countries included in the
Exhibit A, the special terms and conditions for such country will apply to Participant, to the
extent the Company determines that the application of such terms and conditions is necessary or
advisable

7

 

in order to comply with local law or facilitate the administration of the Plan. The Exhibit A
constitutes part of this Award Agreement.

	 	Q.	 	Imposition of Other Requirements.

               The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on Participant’s participation in
the Plan, on the Option and on any Shares acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company

EXHIBIT A

EXHIBIT A

ARUBA NETWORKS, INC.

2007 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

Special Provisions for Options Granted to Participants Outside the U.S.

Terms and Conditions

This Exhibit A includes additional country-specific terms and conditions that govern the Option
granted to Participant under the Plan if he or she resides in one of the countries listed below.
This Exhibit A is part of the Award Agreement. Unless otherwise provided below, capitalized terms
used but not defined herein shall have the same meanings assigned to them in the Plan and/or the
Award Agreement.

Notifications

This Exhibit A also includes information regarding exchange control and certain other issues of
which Participant should be aware with respect to his or her participation in the Plan. The
information is based on the securities, exchange control and other laws in effect in the respective
countries as of August 2010. Such laws are often complex and change frequently. As a result, the
Company strongly recommends that Participant not rely on the information in this Exhibit A as the
only source of information relating to the consequences of his or her participation in the Plan
because such information may be outdated at the time that he or she exercises the Option or sells
Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of the Option. It is Participant’s responsibility (not
the Company’s or the Employer’s) to comply with the exchange controls applicable to him or her.

In addition, the information contained herein is general in nature and may not apply to
Participant’s particular situation. As a result, the Company cannot assure Participant of any
particular result. The Company strongly advises that Participant seek appropriate professional
advice as to how the relevant laws in Participant’s country may apply to his or her situation.

Finally, if Participant is a citizen or resident of a country other than the one in which he or she
is currently working, transfers employment after the Option is granted, or is considered a citizen
or resident of another country for local law purposes, the information contained herein may not
apply to Participant.

CANADA

Terms and Conditions

Involuntary Termination Terms for the Option

The following section replaces Section G.13 of the Award Agreement:

In the event of involuntary termination of Participant’s employment (whether or not in breach of
local labor laws), Participant’s right to vest in this Option (and the triggering of the
post-termination exercise period), if any, will terminate (or be triggered) effective as of the
date that is the earlier of: (1) the date Participant receives notice of termination of employment
from the Employer, or (2) the date Participant is no longer actively employed by the Employer
regardless

A-1 

 

of any notice period or period of pay in lieu of such notice required under local law (including,
but not limited to, statutory law, regulatory law and/or common law); the Plan administrator shall
have the exclusive discretion to determine when Participant is no longer actively employed for
purposes of this Option.

Data Privacy Notice and Consent

The following section supplements Section L of the Award Agreement:

Participant hereby authorizes the Company and the Company’s representatives to discuss and obtain
all relevant information from all personnel, professional or non-professional, involved in the
administration of the Plan. Participant further authorizes the Employer, the Company, and its
Subsidiaries and affiliates to disclose and discuss such information with their advisors.
Participant also authorizes the Employer, Company and its Subsidiaries and affiliates to record
such information and to keep such information in the Participant’s employee file.

Securities Compliance.

Participant is permitted to sell the Shares acquired through the Plan through the designated broker
appointed under the Plan, if any, provided the resale of Shares acquired under the Plan takes place
outside of Canada through the facilities of a stock exchange on which the Shares are listed. The
Shares are currently listed on the Nasdaq Global Market.

Consent to Receive Information in English for Participants Who are Residents of Quebec

The parties acknowledge that it is their express wish that the Award Agreement, as well as all
documents, notices and legal proceeds entered into, given or instituted pursuant hereto or relating
directly or indirectly hereto, be drawn up in English.

Les parties reconnaissent avoir exigé la rédaction en anglais de la convention, ainsi que de tous

CHINA

Terms and Conditions

Method of Payment

Notwithstanding Section E of the Award Agreement, due to stringent exchange controls and securities
restrictions in China, when Participant exercises the Option, Participant must use a “cashless
sell-all” exercise pursuant to which he or she delivers irrevocable instructions to the broker to
sell all Shares Participant is entitled to at exercise and remit the proceeds from sale less any
Tax-Related Items and brokerage fees or commissions to Participant in cash. Participant will not
be permitted to receive and hold any Shares in connection with the exercise of the Option.
Participant will be responsible for all broker’s fees and other costs of sale, and Participant
agrees to indemnify and hold the Company harmless from any losses, costs, damages, or expenses
relating to any such sale. The Company reserves the right to provide Participant with additional
methods of paying the Exercise Price depending upon the development of local laws.

Participant understands that the Employer is not a party to the Plan, and thus, it is not required
to make any payments to Participant or on Participant’s behalf under the Plan.

A-2 

 

Vesting Condition for Participants who are Residents of the People’s Republic of China

In keeping with paragraph B of the Award Agreement, notwithstanding the Vesting Schedule set forth
in the Notice of Grant, the Stock Options shall not vest in accordance with the Vesting Schedule
unless and until the Company first attains all necessary approvals from State Administration of
Foreign Exchange or its local counterpart under the Implementing Rules of the Measures for
Administration of Foreign Exchange of Individuals for a dedicated foreign exchange account to
receive foreign remittances in connection with the vesting of the Stock Options and the sale of the
Shares and repatriation of foreign currency to China.

Exchange Control Information for Participants who are Residents of the People’s Republic of
China

Participant understands and agrees that, due to exchange control laws in China, Participant will be
required to immediately repatriate the proceeds from the cashless sell-all exercise of the Option
and sale of Shares to China. Participant further understands that, under local law, such
repatriation of the proceeds may need to be effected through a special exchange control account
established by the Employer, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or affiliates in China, and
Participant hereby consents and agrees that the proceeds from the cashless sell-all exercise of the
Option and sale of Shares may be transferred to such special account prior to being delivered to
Participant. However, regardless of whether the Company establishes a special account, Participant
understands that he or she must repatriate any cash proceeds to China and may not have the funds in
an off-shore account. Unless the Company in its sole discretion decides otherwise, the proceeds
will be paid to the Participant in local currency. The Company is under no obligation to secure
any particular exchange conversion rate and the Company may face delays in converting the proceeds
to local currency due to exchange control restrictions. Participant agrees to bear any currency
fluctuation risk between the time the sale proceeds are received and the time the sale proceeds are
distributed to the Participant through any such special account. Participant further agrees to
comply with any other requirements that may be imposed by the Company in the future in order to
facilitate compliance with exchange control requirements in China.

Terms and Conditions

Danish Stock Option Act

By participating in the Plan, Participant acknowledges that he or she received an Employer

Exchange Control and Tax Notification

Participant may hold Shares acquired through the Plan in a safety-deposit account (e.g., a
brokerage account) with either a Danish bank or with an approved foreign broker or bank. If
Participant holds Shares with a foreign broker or bank, Participant is required to inform the
Danish Tax Administration about the safety-deposit account. For this purpose, (if applicable)
Participant must file a Form V (Erklaering V) with the Danish Tax Administration. The Form V

bank undertakes an obligation, without further request each year, to forward information to the
Danish Tax Administration concerning the Shares in the account. By signing the Form V, Participant
authorizes the Danish Tax Administration to examine the account.

If Participant opens a brokerage account (or a deposit account with a U.S. bank), the brokerage
account (or bank account, as applicable) will be treated as a deposit account because cash can be
held in the account. In that instance, Participant must file a Form K (Erklaering K) with the
Danish Tax Administration. Both the broker and Participant must sign the Form K. By signing the
Form K, the broker undertakes an obligation, without further request each year, to forward

unvested or outstanding in Participant’s favor (“Data”), for the exclusive purpose of implementing,
managing and administering the Plan and for complying with Applicable Laws, regulations and
Community legislation.

Participant also understands that providing the Company with Data is mandatory for compliance with
laws and is necessary for the performance of the Plan and that Participant’s refusal to provide
such Data would make it impossible for the Company to perform its

contractual obligations and may affect Participant’s ability to participate in the Plan. The
Controller of personal data processing is Aruba Networks, Inc., with registered offices at 1344

KOREA

Notifications

Exchange Control Information

If Participant remits funds out of Korea to pay the Exercise Price at exercise of the Option, such
remittance must be “confirmed” by a foreign exchange bank in Korea. This is an automatic
procedure, i.e., the bank does not need to “approve” the remittance, and it should take no more
than a single day to process. The following supporting documents evidencing the nature of the
remittance must be submitted to the bank together with the confirmation application: (i) the Notice
of Grant; (ii) the Plan; (iii) a document evidencing the type of shares to be acquired and the
amount (e.g., the award certificate); and (iv) Participant’s certificate of employment. This
confirmation is not necessary for cashless exercises because no funds are remitted out of Korea.

Additionally, exchange control laws require Korean residents who realize US$500,000 or more from
the sale of shares to repatriate the proceeds to Korea within 18 months of the sale.

In accepting the grant of the Option, Participant expressly recognizes that Aruba Networks, Inc.,
with registered offices at 1344 Crossman Avenue, Sunnyvale, California 94089, U.S.A., is solely
responsible for the administration of the Plan and that Participant’s participation in the Plan and

Networks, Inc. since Participant is participating in the Plan on a wholly commercial basis and his
or her sole employer Aruba-Mexico. Based on the foregoing, Participant expressly recognizes that
the Plan and the benefits that he or she may derive from participating in the Plan do not establish
any rights between Participant and Participant’s employer, Aruba-Mexico and do not form part of the

unilateral and discretionary decision of Aruba Networks, Inc.; therefore, Aruba Networks, Inc.
reserves the absolute right to amend and/or discontinue Participant’s participation at any time

NETHERLANDS

Insider Trading Information

If Participant is a resident of the Netherlands, Participant should be aware of Dutch insider
trading rules which may impact the sale of Shares acquired under the Plan. In particular,
Participant may be prohibited from effectuating certain transactions if he or she has insider
information regarding the Company.

By accepting the grant of the Option and participating in the Plan, Participant acknowledges having
read and understood this notification and further acknowledges that it is Participant’s
responsibility to comply with the following Dutch insider trading rules.

Under Article 5:56 of Dutch Financial Supervision Act, anyone who has “inside information” related
to the Company is prohibited from effectuating a transaction in securities in or from the
Netherlands. “Inside information” is defined as knowledge of details concerning the issuing
company to which the securities relate that is not public and which, if published, would reasonably
be expected to affect the stock price, regardless of the development of the price. The insider
could be any employee of the Company or a subsidiary or affiliate in the Netherlands who has inside
information as described herein.

Given the broad scope of the definition of inside information, certain employees of the Company
working at a subsidiary or affiliate in the Netherlands (including a Participant in the Plan) may
have inside information and, thus, would be prohibited from effectuating a transaction in
securities in the Netherlands at a time when Participant had such inside information.

A-10

 

If it is uncertain whether the insider trading rules apply to Participant, the Company recommends
that Participant should consult with his or her own legal advisor. Please note that the Company
cannot be held liable if Participant violates the Dutch insider rules. Participant is responsible
for ensuring compliance with these rules.

lodged or registered as a prospectus with the Monetary Authority of Singapore. Participant should
note that the Option is subject to section 257 of the SFA and Participant will not be able to make
(i) any subsequent sale of the Shares in Singapore or (ii) any offer of such subsequent sale of the
Shares subject to the Option in Singapore, unless such sale or offer in is made pursuant to the

Labor Law Acknowledgment

This section supplements Section H of the Award Agreement:

In accepting the Option, Participant acknowledges that he or she consents to participation in the
Plan and has received a copy of the Plan.

The Participant understands that the Company has unilaterally, gratuitously and discretionally
decided to grant options under the Plan to individuals who may be employees of the Company or

A-11

 

its Subsidiaries or affiliates throughout the world. The decision is a limited decision that is
entered into upon the express assumption and condition that any grant will not economically or
otherwise bind the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or affiliates on an ongoing basis.
Consequently, Participant understands that the Option is granted on the assumption and condition
that the Option or the Shares acquired upon exercise shall not become a part of any employment
contract (either with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or affiliates) and shall not be
considered a mandatory benefit, salary for any purposes (including severance compensation) or any
other right whatsoever. In addition, Participant understands that this grant would not be made to
the Participant but for the assumptions and conditions referred to above; thus, the Participant
acknowledges and freely accepts that should any or all of the assumptions be mistaken or should any
of the conditions not be met for any reason, then any grant of options shall be null and void.

Notifications

Exchange Control Notification

It is Participant’s responsibility to comply with exchange control regulations in Spain. The
purchase of Shares must be declared by the purchaser for statistical purposes to the Spanish
Direccion General de Política Comercial y de Inversiones Extranjeras (the “DGPCIE”), of the
Ministerio de Economia. If Participant purchases the Shares through the use of a Spanish financial
institution, that institution will automatically make the declaration to the DGPCIE for
Participant. Otherwise, Participant must make the declaration by filing the appropriate form with
the DGPCIE. In addition, Participant must also file a declaration of the ownership of the
securities with the Directorate of Foreign Transactions each January while the Shares are owned.

When receiving foreign currency payments derived from the ownership of Shares (i.e., as a result of
the sale of the Shares), Participant must inform the financial institution receiving the payment,
the basis upon which such payment is made. Participant will need to provide the institution with
the following information: (i) Participant’s name, address, and fiscal identification number; (ii)
the name and corporate domicile of the Company; (iii) the amount of the payment; (iv) the currency
used; (v) the country of origin; (vi) the reasons for the payment; and (vii) any additional
information that may be required.

If Participant wishes to import the ownership title of the Shares (i.e., share certificates) into
Spain, Participant must declare the importation of such securities to the DGPCIE.

Exchange Control Information

Participant may acquire and remit foreign currency (including proceeds from the sale of Shares)
into and out of Taiwan, up to US$5 million per year without justification. When remitting funds
for the purchase of Shares pursuant to the Plan, such remittances should be made through an
authorized foreign exchange bank. In addition, if Participant remits TWD$500,000 or more in a
single transaction, Participant must submit a foreign exchange transaction form to the remitting
bank and also provide supporting documentation to the satisfaction of the remitting bank. If the
transaction amount is US$500,000 or more in a single transaction, Participant must also provide
supporting documentation to the satisfaction of the remitting bank.

THAILAND

Notifications

Exchange Control Information

If Participant exercises the Options with cash, Participant may apply directly to a commercial bank
in Thailand for approval to remit up to US$1,000,000 per year for the purchase of Shares. If
Participant exercises the Option by way of a cashless method of exercise, no application to a
commercial bank is required. In addition, Participant is required to immediately repatriate the
proceeds from the sale of the Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of the Option to Thailand.
Within the next 360 days after the repatriation date, Participant must deposit the sale proceeds
into a foreign currency deposit account or convert them to local currency. If the amount of such
sale proceeds is equal to or greater than US$20,000, Participant must specifically report the
inward remittance to the Bank of Thailand on a Foreign Exchange Transaction Form through the bank
at which Participant deposits or converts the sale proceeds.

If Participant does not comply with the above obligations, he or she may be subject to penalties
assessed by the Bank of Thailand. Because exchange control regulations change frequently and
without notice, Participant should consult his or her legal advisor before selling the Shares to
ensure compliance with current regulations. It is Participant’s responsibility to comply with
exchange control laws in Thailand, and neither the Company nor the Employer will be liable for any
fines or penalties resulting from Participant’s failure to comply.

Tax-Related Items (the “Employer NICs”). Without prejudice to the foregoing, Participant agrees to

by Her Majesty’s Revenue & Customs (“HMRC”) (the “Joint Election”), and any other required consent
or election required to accomplish the transfer of Employer NICs to

Participant. Participant understands that the Joint Election applies to any option granted to him
or her under the Plan after the execution of the Joint Election. Participant further agrees to

Company and/or the Employer. Participant further agrees that the Company and/or the Employer may
collect the Employer NICs from him or her by any of the means set forth in Section F of the Award
Agreement, as supplemented by this Exhibit A.

If Participant does not enter into a Joint Election prior to exercise of the Option, he or she will
not be entitled to exercise the Option unless and until he or she enters into a Joint Election and
no Shares will be issued to Participant under the Plan, without any liability to the Company and/or
the Employer.

Tax Obligations/Withholding Authorization

This section supplements Section F of the Award Agreement.

If payment or withholding of the income tax due is not made within ninety (90) days of the event
giving rise to the liability or such other period specified in Section 222(1)(c) of the U.K. Income
Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003 (the “Due Date”), the amount of any uncollected income tax
shall constitute a loan owed by Participant to the Employer, effective as of the Due Date.
Participant agrees that the loan will bear interest at the then-current official rate of HMRC, it
shall be immediately due and repayable, and the Company or the Employer may recover it at any time
thereafter by any of the means referred to in Section F of the Award Agreement. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if Participant is a director or executive officer of the Company (within the meaning
of Section 13(k) of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), he or she shall not
be eligible for a loan from the Company to cover the income tax due. In the event that Participant
is a director or executive officer and the income tax due is not collected from or paid by him or
her by the Due Date, the amount of any uncollected income tax will constitute a benefit to
Participant on which additional income tax and NICs will be payable. Participant will be
responsible for reporting any income tax and NICs due on this additional benefit directly to HMRC
under the self-assessment regime.

In addition, the Participant agrees that the Company and/or the Employer may calculate the
Tax-Related Items to be withheld and accounted for by reference to the maximum applicable rates,
without prejudice to any right the Participant may have to recover any overpayment from the
relevant tax authorities.

EXHIBIT A

ARUBA NETWORKS, INC.

2007 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT

     1. Grant. The Company hereby grants to the Participant an award of Restricted Stock
Units (“RSUs”), as set forth in the Notice of Grant of Restricted Stock Units attached to (and part
of) this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement (together, the “Agreement” or the “Restricted Stock Unit
Agreement”) and subject to the terms and conditions in this Agreement and the Company’s 2007 Equity
Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). Unless otherwise defined herein, the terms defined in the Plan shall
have the same defined meanings in this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement.

     2. Company’s Obligation. Each RSU represents the right to receive a Share on the
vesting date (or at such later time as indicated in this Agreement). Unless and until the RSUs
vest, the Participant will have no right to receive Shares under such RSUs. Prior to actual
distribution of Shares pursuant to any vested RSUs, such RSUs will represent an unsecured
obligation of the Company, payable (if at all) only from the general assets of the Company. When
the RSUs are paid out to the Participant, they will be paid out in whole Shares only and the
purchase price will be deemed paid by the Participant for each RSU through the past services
rendered by the Participant, and will be subject to the appropriate tax reporting and, if
applicable, appropriate tax withholding.

     3. Vesting Schedule. Subject to Sections 4 and 5(b) and the terms of the Plan, the
RSUs awarded by this Agreement will vest in the Participant according to the vesting schedule
specified in the Notice of Grant, subject to Participant remaining a Service Provider through each
applicable vesting date.

     4. Forfeiture upon Termination as Service Provider. Notwithstanding any contrary
provision of this Agreement or the Notice of Grant, if the Participant terminates service as a
Service Provider for any or no reason prior to vesting, the unvested RSUs awarded by this Agreement
will be forfeited at the time of such termination at no cost to the Company.

     5. Payment after Vesting.

          (a) Subject to Section 9, any RSUs that vest will be paid to the Participant (or in the event
of the Participant’s death, to his or her estate or beneficiary under Applicable Law) in whole
Shares. Subject to the provisions of Section 5(b), to the extent applicable, such vested RSUs
shall be paid in Shares as soon as practicable after vesting, but in each such case no later than
the date that is two-and-one-half months from the end of the Company’s tax year that includes the
vesting date.

          (b) To the extent Participant is or becomes subject to U.S. Federal income taxation, this
subsection (b) shall apply. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or this Agreement to the
contrary, if the vesting of the balance, or some lesser portion of the balance, of the RSUs is
accelerated in connection with the Participant’s termination as a Service Provider, such
accelerated RSUs will not be payable by virtue of such acceleration until and unless the
Participant has a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A, other than due

A-1

 

to death. Further, and notwithstanding anything in the Plan or this Agreement to the
contrary, if any such accelerated RSUs would otherwise become payable upon a “separation from
service” within the meaning of Section 409A, and if (x) Participant is a “specified employee”
within the meaning of Section 409A at the time of such “separation from service” (other than due to
the Participant’s death) and (y) the payment of such accelerated RSUs will result in the imposition
of additional tax under Section 409A if paid to Participant on or within the six (6) month period
following Participant’s “separation from service”, then the payment of such accelerated RSUs will
not be made until the date six (6) months and one (1) day following the date of Participant’s
“separation from service”, unless the Participant dies following his or her termination as a
Service Provider, in which case, the RSUs will be paid in Shares as soon as practicable following
his or her death. It is the intent of this Agreement to be exempt from or comply with the
requirements of Section 409A so that none of the RSUs provided under this Agreement or Shares
issuable thereunder will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any
ambiguities herein and in the Plan will be interpreted to be exempt or so comply. Each payment and
benefit payable under this Agreement is intended to constitute a separate payment for purposes of
Section 1.409A-2(b)(2) of the Treasury Regulations. For purposes of this Agreement, “Section 409A”
means Section 409A of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the final Treasury
Regulations and any guidance promulgated thereunder or any U.S. state law equivalent.

     6. Payments after Death. Any distribution or delivery to be made to the Participant
under this Agreement will, if the Participant is then deceased, be made to the administrator or
executor of the Participant’s estate or beneficiary under Applicable Law. Any such administrator,
executor or beneficiary must furnish the Company with (a) written notice of his or her status as
transferee and (b) evidence satisfactory to the Company to establish the validity of the transfer
and compliance with any laws or regulations pertaining to said transfer.

     7. Rights as Stockholder. Neither the Participant nor any person claiming under or
through the Participant will have any of the rights or privileges of a stockholder of the Company
in respect of any Shares deliverable hereunder unless and until certificates representing such
Shares (which may be in book entry form) will have been issued, recorded on the records of the
Company or its transfer agents or registrars, and delivered to the Participant or Participant’s
broker.

     8. No Effect on Employment or Service. Nothing in this Agreement or the Plan shall
confer upon the Participant any right to continue to be employed by or in service with his or her
employer (the “Employer”) or shall interfere with or restrict in any way the rights of the
Employer, which are hereby expressly reserved, to terminate or change the terms of the employment
or service of the Participant at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without cause or
notice to the extent permissible under Applicable Law.

     9. Tax Obligations/Withholding Authorization. Regardless of any action the Company or
the Employer takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on
account or other tax-related items related to the Participant’s participation in the Plan and
legally applicable to the Participant (“Tax Related Items”), Participant acknowledges that the
ultimate liability for all Tax Related Items is and remains Participant’s responsibility and may
exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the Employer. The Participant further
acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (i) make no representations or

A-2

 

undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax Related Items in connection with any aspect of
the RSUs, including, but not limited to, the grant of the RSUs, the vesting of RSUs, the issuance
of Shares at vesting, the subsequent sale of any Shares acquired at vesting and the receipt of any
dividends; and (ii) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the
grant or any aspect of the RSUs to reduce or eliminate the Participant’s liability for Tax Related
Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if the Participant has become subject to tax
in more than one jurisdiction between the date of grant and the date of any relevant taxable or tax
withholding event, as applicable, the Participant acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer
(or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax Related Items in
more than one jurisdiction.

          Until and unless the Company determines otherwise, on the date or dates on which tax
withholding obligations arise with respect to the RSUs, a number of Shares sufficient to pay the
Tax-Related Items will be sold pursuant to such procedures as the Company in its sole discretion
may specify from time to time; provided, however, that the Shares to be sold must have vested
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the Plan. The proceeds of such sale shall be used to
satisfy Participant’s tax withholding obligations (and any associated broker or other fees) arising
with respect to the Restricted Stock Units. Only whole Shares will be sold to satisfy any tax
withholding obligations pursuant to this Section 9. The proceeds from the sale of Shares in excess
of the tax withholding obligation (and any associated broker or other fees) will be remitted to the
Participant pursuant to such procedures as the Company may specify from time to time. By accepting
the RSUs, Participant expressly consents to the sale of Shares to cover the tax withholding
obligations (and any associated broker or other fees), as set forth under this Section 9.

          In addition, upon required withholding of Tax-Related Items, prior to any relevant taxable or
tax withholding event, as applicable, the Company, in its sole discretion and pursuant to such
procedures as it may specify from time to time, may require the Participant to pay, or make
adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company or to the Employer (as directed by the Company)
to satisfy all Tax Related Items. In this regard, Participant authorizes the Company or the
Employer, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy the obligations with regard
to all Tax Related Items by one or a combination of: (i) withholding from Participant’s wages or
other cash compensation payable to Participant by the Company or the Employer; or (ii) withholding
in Shares to be issued upon vesting of the RSUs.

          To avoid negative accounting treatment, the Company may withhold or account for Tax Related
Items by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding amounts or other applicable
withholding rates. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in Shares,
for tax purposes, the Participant is deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject
to the vested RSUs, notwithstanding that a number of the Shares are held back solely for the
purpose of paying the Tax Related Items due as a result of any aspect of the Participant’s
participation in the Plan.

          Finally, the Participant shall pay to the Company or to the Employer any amount of Tax Related
Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for as a result of
Participant’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described.
The Company may refuse to deliver Shares or proceeds of the sale of Shares to the Participant if
the Participant fails to comply with his or her obligations in

A-3

 

connection with the Tax Related Items. If the Participant fails to make satisfactory
arrangements for the payment of any Tax Related Items at the time of any relevant taxable event or
tax withholding event, as applicable, the Participant will permanently forfeit such Shares and the
Shares will be returned to the Plan at no cost.

     10. Address for Notices. Any notice to be given to the Company under the terms of
this Agreement will be addressed to the Company at 1344 Crossman Ave., Sunnyvale, CA 94089-1113,
Attn: Stock Administration, or at such other address as the Company may hereafter designate
in writing or electronically.

     11. Grant is Not Transferable. This award of RSUs may not be transferred in any
manner otherwise than by will or by Applicable Law and may be exercised during the lifetime of
Participant only by the Participant. The terms of the Plan and this Agreement shall be binding
upon the executors, administrators, heirs, successors and assigns of the Participant. Upon any
attempt to transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of this award of RSUs, or any
right or privilege conferred hereby, or upon any attempted sale under any execution, attachment or
similar process, this grant and the rights and privileges conferred hereby immediately will become
null and void.

     12. Nature of Grant. In accepting the grant, the Participant acknowledges,
understands and agrees that: (a) the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, it is
discretionary in nature and it may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at
any time; (b) the grant of the RSUs is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual
or other right to receive future grants of RSUs, or benefits in lieu of RSUs, even if RSUs have
been granted repeatedly in the past; (c) all decisions with respect to future RSU grants, if any,
will be at the sole discretion of the Company; (d) the Participant’s participation in the Plan
shall not create a right to further employment with the Employer; (e) the Participant is
voluntarily participating in the Plan; (f) the RSUs and Shares subject to the RSUs are
extraordinary items that do not constitute compensation of any kind for services of any kind
rendered to the Company, the Employer or any Subsidiary or affiliate of the Company, and which is
outside the scope of the Participant’s employment contract, if any; (g) the RSUs and the Shares
subject to the RSUs are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation; (h) the RSUs
and Shares subject to the RSUs are not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any
purposes, including, but not limited to, calculating any severance, resignation, termination,
redundancy, dismissal, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension, retirement
or welfare benefits or similar payments and in no event should be considered as compensation for,
or relating in any way to, past services for the Company, the Employer or any Subsidiary or
affiliate of the Company; (i) the grant of the RSUs and the Participant’s participation in the Plan
will not be interpreted to form an employment or service contract or relationship with the Company,
the Employer or any Subsidiary or affiliate of the Company; (j) the future value of the underlying
Shares is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty; (k) no claim or entitlement to
compensation or damages shall arise from forfeiture of the RSUs resulting from termination of the
Participant’s employment by the Company or the Employer (for any reason whatsoever and whether or
not in breach of local labor laws), and in consideration of the grant of the RSUs to which the
Participant is otherwise not entitled, the Participant irrevocably agrees never to institute any
claim against the Company or the Employer, waive his or her ability, if any, to bring any such
claim, and release the Company and the

A-4

 

Employer from any such claim; if, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is allowed by
a court of competent jurisdiction, then, by participating in the Plan, the Participant shall be
deemed irrevocably to have agreed not to pursue such claim and agree to execute any and all
documents necessary to request dismissal or withdrawal of such claims; and (l) in the event of
termination of the Participant’s employment or service (whether or not in breach of local labor
laws), the Participant’s right to vest in the RSUs under the Plan, if any, will terminate effective
as of the date that the Participant is no longer actively employed or in service and will not be
extended by any notice period mandated under local law (e.g., active employment or service would
not include a period of “garden leave” or similar period pursuant to local law); the Administrator
shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when the Participant is no longer actively
employed or in service for purposes of his or her grant of RSUs.

     13. No Advice Regarding Grant. The Company is not providing any tax, legal or
financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding the Participant’s
participation in the Plan, or the Participant’s acquisition or sale of the underlying Shares. The
Participant is hereby advised to consult with his or her own personal tax, legal and financial
advisors regarding his or her participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the
Plan.

     14. Data Privacy. The Participant hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the
collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of the Participant’s personal data as
described in this Agreement and any other RSU grant materials by and among, as applicable, the
Employer, the Company, its Subsidiaries and its affiliates for the exclusive purpose of
implementing, administering and managing the Participant’s participation in the Plan.

          The Participant understands that the Company and the Employer may hold certain personal
information about the Participant, including, but not limited to, the Participant’s name, home
address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification
number, salary, nationality, job title, any shares of stock or directorships held in the Company,
details of all RSUs or any other entitlement to Shares awarded, canceled, exercised, vested,
unvested or outstanding in the Participant’s favor, for the exclusive purpose of implementing,
administering and managing the Plan (“Data”).

          The Participant understands that Data may be transferred to any third parties assisting the
Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. The Participant
understands that the recipients of the Data may be located in the United States of America or
elsewhere, and that the recipient’s country (e.g., the United States of America) may have different
data privacy laws and protections than the Participant’s country. The Participant understands that
the Participant may request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the
Data by contacting the Participant’s local human resources representative. The Participant
authorizes the recipients to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or
other form, for the sole purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Participant’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 RSUs
may be deposited. The Participant understands that Data will be held only as long as is necessary
to implement, administer and manage the Participant’s participation in the Plan. The Participant
understands that the Participant may, at any time, view Data, request additional information

A-5

 

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
Participant’s local human resources representative. The Participant understands that refusal or
withdrawal of his or her consent may affect the Participant’s ability to participate in the Plan.
For more information on the consequences of the Participant’s refusal to consent or withdrawal of
consent, the Participant understands that he or she may contact his or her local human resources
representative.

     15. Binding Agreement. Subject to the limitation on the transferability of this grant
contained herein, this Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the heirs,
legatees, legal representatives, successors and assigns of the parties hereto.

     16. Additional Conditions to Issuance of Stock. If at any time the Company will
determine, in its discretion, that the listing, registration or qualification of the Shares upon
any securities exchange or under any state, federal or foreign law, or the consent or approval of
any governmental regulatory authority is necessary or desirable as a condition to the issuance of
Shares to the Participant (or his or her estate), such issuance will not occur unless and until
such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval will have been effected or obtained
free of any conditions not acceptable to the Company. The Company will make all reasonable efforts
to meet the requirements of any such state, federal or foreign law or securities exchange and to
obtain any such consent or approval of any such governmental authority.

     17. Plan Governs. This Agreement (including the Notice of Grant) is subject to all
terms and provisions of the Plan. Subject to Section 20(c) of the Plan, in the event of a conflict
between one or more provisions of this Agreement or the Notice of Grant and one or more provisions
of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan will govern.

     18. Headings. Headings provided herein are for convenience only and are not to serve
as a basis for interpretation or construction of this Agreement.

     19. Administrator Authority. The Administrator will have the power to interpret the
Plan and this Agreement and to adopt such rules for the administration, interpretation and
application of the Plan as are consistent therewith and to interpret or revoke any such rules
(including, but not limited to, the determination of whether or not any RSUs have vested). All
actions taken and all interpretations and determinations made by the Administrator in good faith
will be final and binding upon Participant, the Company and all other interested persons. Neither
the Administrator nor any person acting on behalf of the Administrator will be personally liable
for any action, determination or interpretation made in good faith with respect to the Plan or this
Agreement.

     20. Agreement Severable. In the event that any provision in this Agreement shall be
held invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be severable from, and such invalidity or
unenforceability shall not be construed to have any effect on, the remaining provisions of this
Agreement.

     21. Language. If the Participant has received this Agreement or any other document
related to the Plan translated into a language other than English and if the meaning of translated
version is different than the English version, the English version will control.

A-6

 

     22. Electronic Delivery. The Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver
any documents related to current or future participation in the Plan by electronic means. The
Participant hereby consents to receive such documents by electronic delivery and agrees to
participate in the Plan through an on-line or electronic system established and maintained by the
Company or another third party designated by the Company.

     23. Entire Agreement; Governing Law; Modifications. The Plan is incorporated herein
by reference. The Plan and this Agreement (including the Notice of Grant and Exhibit B) 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 Participant with
respect to the subject matter hereof, and may not be modified adversely to the Participant’s
interest except by means of a writing signed by the Company and the Participant. This Agreement is
governed by California law except for that body of law pertaining to conflict of laws. For purposes
of litigating any dispute that arises directly or indirectly from the relationship of the parties
evidenced by this grant or the Agreement, the parties hereby submit to and consent to the exclusive
jurisdiction of the State of California and agree that such litigation shall be conducted only in
the courts of Santa Clara, California, or the federal courts for the United States for the Northern
District of California, and no other courts, where this grant is made and/or to be performed.

     24. Exhibit B. Notwithstanding any provisions in this Agreement, the grant of the RSUs
shall be subject to any special terms and conditions set forth in the Exhibit B to this Agreement
for the Participant’s country. Moreover, if the Participant relocates to one of the countries
included in Exhibit B, the special terms and conditions for such country will apply to the
Participant, to the extent the Company determines that the application of such terms and conditions
is necessary or advisable in order to comply with local law or facilitate the administration of the
Plan. Exhibit B constitutes part of this Agreement.

     25. Imposition of Other Requirements. The Company reserves the right to impose other
requirements on the Participant’s participation in the Plan, on the RSUs and on any Shares acquired
under the Plan, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable in order to
comply with local law or facilitate the administration of the Plan, and to require the Participant
to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the
foregoing.

EXHIBIT B

ARUBA NETWORKS, INC.

2007 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

Special Provisions for Restricted Stock Units in Countries Outside the U.S.

Terms and Conditions

This Exhibit B includes additional country-specific terms and conditions that govern the
Participant’s participation in the Plan if he or she resides in one of the countries listed below.
This Exhibit B is part of the Agreement. Unless otherwise provided below, capitalized terms used
but not defined herein shall have the same meanings assigned to them in the Plan and the Agreement.

Notifications

This Exhibit B also includes information regarding exchange control and certain other issues of
which the Participant should be aware with respect to his or her participation in the Plan. The
information is based on the securities, exchange control and other laws in effect in the respective
countries as of July 2010. Such laws are often complex and change frequently. The Company
therefore strongly recommends that the Participant not rely on the information in this Exhibit B as
the only source of information relating to the consequences of his or her participation in the Plan
because such information may be outdated when the RSUs vest and/or the Participant sells any Shares
issued pursuant to the vesting of the RSUs. It is the Participant’s responsibility (not the
Company’s nor the Employer’s) to comply with the exchange controls applicable to him or her.

In addition, the information contained in this Exhibit B is general in nature and may not apply to
the Participant’s particular situation. As a result, the Company cannot assure the Participant of
any particular result. The Company strongly advises that the Participant seek appropriate
professional advice as to how the relevant laws in the Participant’s country may apply to his or
her situation.

Finally, if the Participant is a citizen or resident of a country other than that in which he or
she is currently working, transfers employment after the RSUs are granted, or is considered a
citizen or resident of another country for local law purposes, the information contained herein may
not apply to the Participant.

AUSTRALIA

Notifications

Securities Law Information. If the Participant acquires Shares pursuant to the RSUs and
offers such Shares for sale to a person or entity resident in Australia, the offer may be subject
to disclosure requirements under Australian law. The Participant should obtain legal advice on his
or her disclosure obligations prior to making any such offer.

Exchange Control Information. Exchange control reporting is required for cash transactions
exceeding A$10,000 and international fund transfers. The Australian bank assisting with the

B-1

 

transaction will file the report. If there is no Australian bank involved in the transfer, the
Participant will be required to file the report.

BELGIUM

Notifications

Tax Compliance. The Participant is required to report any taxable income attributable to
the RSUs on his or her annual tax return. In addition, the Participant is required to report any
bank accounts opened and maintained outside Belgium on his or her annual tax return.

CANADA

Terms and Conditions

Data Privacy. This provision supplements Section 14 of the Agreement:

The Participant hereby authorizes the Company and the Company’s representatives to discuss with and
obtain all relevant information from all personnel, professional or not, involved in the
administration and operation of the Plan. The Participant further authorizes the Company and/or
any Subsidiary or affiliate of the Company to record such information and to keep such information
in the Participant’s employee file.

Securities Compliance. The Participant is permitted to sell the Shares acquired through
the Plan through the designated broker appointed under the Plan, if any, provided the resale of
Shares acquired under the Plan takes place outside of Canada through the facilities of a stock
exchange on which the Shares are listed. The Shares are currently listed on the Nasdaq Global
Market.

Consent to Receive Information in English for Participants in Quebec

The parties acknowledge that it is their express wish that the Agreement, as well as all documents,
notices and legal proceeds entered into, given or instituted pursuant hereto or relating directly
or indirectly hereto, be drawn up in English.

Les parties reconnaissent avoir exigé la rédaction en anglais de la convention, ainsi que de tous
documents, avis et procédures judiciaires, exécutés, donnés ou intentés en vertu de, ou liés
directement ou indirectement à la convention.

CHINA

Terms and Conditions

Immediate Sale Restriction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or
Agreement, when the RSUs vest under the Plan, the Participant agrees that all Shares issued at
vesting of the RSUs will be sold on his or her behalf and at his or her authorization as soon as
administratively possible on or after the vesting date. The Participant will not be entitled to
retain any Shares issued upon vesting of his or her RSUs. Instead, the Participant will receive
the sale proceeds less any Tax Related Items and broker’s fees or commissions. Due to fluctuations
in the Share price and/or the US dollar exchange rate between the vesting date and (if later) the
date on which

B-2

 

the Shares are sold, the sale proceeds may be more or less than the market value of the Shares on
the vesting date (which is the amount relevant to determining the Participant’s tax liability).
The Participant understands and agrees that the Company is not responsible for the amount of any
loss the Participant may incur and that the Company assumes no liability for any fluctuations in
the Share price and/or US dollar exchange rate.

Vesting Condition for Participants who are Residents of the People’s Republic of China
In keeping with paragraph 3 of the Award Agreement, notwithstanding the Vesting Schedule set forth
in the Notice of Grant, the Restricted Stock Units shall not vest in accordance with the Vesting
Schedule unless and until the Company first attains all necessary approvals from State
Administration of Foreign Exchange or its local counterpart under the Implementing Rules of the
Measures for Administration of Foreign Exchange of Individuals for a dedicated foreign exchange
account to receive foreign remittances in connection with the vesting of the Restricted Stock Units
and the sale of the Shares and repatriation of foreign currency to China.

Exchange Control Restriction. The Participant understands and agrees that, pursuant to
exchange control laws in China, immediate repatriation to China of the cash proceeds from the
immediate sale of Shares at vesting of the RSUs is required, unless the Participant is a non-PRC
citizen. The Participant further understands that, under exchange control laws in China, such
repatriation of the cash proceeds may need to be effectuated through a special exchange control
account established by the Company, the Employer, a Subsidiary or an affiliate of the Company. The
Participant hereby consents and agrees that the cash proceeds from the immediate sale of Shares at
vesting of the RSUs may be transferred to such special account prior to being delivered to him or
her. Unless the Company in its sole discretion decides otherwise, the proceeds will be paid to the
Participant in local currency. The Company is under no obligation to secure any particular
exchange conversion rate and the Company may face delays in converting the proceeds to local
currency due to exchange control restrictions. The Participant agrees to bear any currency
fluctuation risk between the time the Shares are sold and the time the sale proceeds are
distributed to the Participant through any such special account. The Participant further agrees to
comply with any other requirements that may be imposed by the Company in the future in order to
facilitate compliance with exchange control requirements in China.

EGYPT

Notifications

Exchange Control Information. If the Participant transfers funds into Egypt in connection
with the sale of Shares acquired at vesting of the RSUs, the Participant is required to transfer
the funds through a registered bank in Egypt.

GERMANY

Notifications

Exchange Control Information. Cross-border payments in excess of €12,500 must be reported
monthly. If the Participant uses a German bank to effect a cross-border payment in excess of
€12,500 in connection with the sale of securities or the payment of dividends related to certain
securities, the bank will make the report. In this case, the Participant will not have to report
the

Insider Trading Rules. If the Participant is a resident of the Netherlands, the
Participant should be aware of the Dutch insider trading rules which may impact the sale of Shares
acquired under the Plan. In particular, the Participant may be prohibited from effectuating
certain share transactions if the Participant has inside information regarding the Company.

In accepting the grant of the RSUs, entering into the Agreement and participating in the Plan, the
Participant acknowledges having read and understood this notification and acknowledges that it is
his or her responsibility to comply with the following Dutch insider trading rules:

Under Article 5:56 of Dutch Financial Supervision Act, anyone who has “inside information” related
to the Company is prohibited from effectuating a transaction in securities in or from the
Netherlands. “Inside information” is defined as knowledge of specific information concerning the
issuing company to which the securities relate or the trade in securities by such company, which
has not been made public and which, if published, would reasonably be expected to affect the stock
price, regardless of the development of the price. The insider could be any employee of the
Company or any Subsidiary who has inside information as described herein.

Given the broad scope of the definition of “inside information,” certain employees of the Company
or any Subsidiary or affiliate (including a Participant pursuant to the Plan) who are resident in
the Netherlands may have inside information and, thus, would be prohibited from effectuating a
transaction in securities in the Netherlands at a time when the employee has such inside
information.

If it is uncertain whether the insider trading rules apply to the Participant, the Company
recommends that the Participant should consult with his or her own legal advisor. Please note that
the Company cannot be held liable if the Participant violates the Dutch insider rules. The
Participant is responsible for ensuring compliance with these rules.

Labor Law Acknowledgment

This section supplements Section 12 of the Agreement:

In accepting the grant, Participant acknowledges that he or she consents to participation in the
Plan and has received a copy of the Plan.

The Participant understands that the Company has unilaterally, gratuitously and discretionally
decided to grant RSUs under the Plan to individuals who may be employees of the Company or its
Subsidiaries or affiliates throughout the world. The decision is a limited decision that is
entered into upon the express assumption and condition that any grant will not economically or
otherwise bind the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or affiliates on an ongoing basis.
Consequently, Participant understands that the RSUs are granted on the assumption and condition
that the RSUs or the Shares issued at vesting of the RSUs shall not become a part of any employment
contract (either with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or affiliates) and shall not be
considered a mandatory benefit, salary for any purposes (including severance compensation) or any
other right whatsoever. In addition, Participant understands that this grant would not be made to
the Participant but for the assumptions and conditions referred to above; thus, the Participant
acknowledges and freely accepts that should any or all of the assumptions be mistaken or should any
of the conditions not be met for any reason, then any grant of RSUs shall be null and void.

purchase of Shares must be declared by the purchaser for statistical purposes to the Spanish

B-11

 

Direccion General de Política Comercial y de Inversiones Extranjeras (the “DGPCIE”), of the
Ministerio de Economia. If Participant purchases the Shares through the use of a Spanish financial
institution, that institution will automatically make the declaration to the DGPCIE for
Participant. Otherwise, Participant must make the declaration by filing the appropriate form with
the DGPCIE. In addition, Participant must also file a declaration of the ownership of the
securities with the Directorate of Foreign Transactions each January while the Shares are owned.

Tax-Related Items (the “Employer NICs”). Without prejudice to the foregoing, Participant agrees to
execute a joint election with the Company, the form of such joint election being formally approved
by Her Majesty’s Revenue & Customs (“HMRC”) (the “Joint Election”), and any other required consent
or election required to accomplish the transfer of Employer NICs to Participant. Participant

the execution of the Joint Election. Participant further agrees to execute such other joint
elections as may be required between him or her and any successor to the Company and/or the
Employer. Participant further agrees that the Company and/or the Employer may collect the Employer

If payment or withholding of the income tax due is not made within ninety (90) days of the event
giving rise to the liability or such other period specified in Section 222(1)(c) of the U.K. Income
Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003 (the “Due Date”), the amount of any uncollected income tax
shall constitute a loan owed by Participant to the Employer, effective as of the Due Date.
Participant agrees that the loan will bear interest at the then-current official rate of HMRC, it
shall be immediately due and repayable, and the Company or the Employer may recover it at any time
thereafter by any of the means referred to in Section 9 of the Agreement. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if Participant is a director or executive officer of the Company (within the meaning of
Section 13(k) of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), he or she shall not be
eligible for a loan from the Company to cover the income tax due. In the event that Participant is
a director or executive officer and the income tax due is not collected from or paid by him or her
by the Due Date, the amount of any uncollected income tax will constitute a benefit to Participant
on which additional income tax and NICs will be payable. Participant will be responsible for
reporting any income tax and NICs due on this additional benefit directly to HMRC under the
self-assessment regime.

In addition, the Participant agrees that the Company and/or the Employer may calculate the
Tax-Related Items to be withheld and accounted for by reference to the maximum applicable rates,
without prejudice to any right the Participant may have to recover any overpayment from the
relevant tax authorities.

EXHIBIT C

Stock Trading Plan

for Mandatory Sale of Shares to Cover Tax Withholding Obligations

     I am adopting and entering into this stock trading plan (the “Sales Plan”) so that I may
receive the necessary proceeds to satisfy any requirements to pay the minimum income, employment
and other applicable taxes (collectively, “Taxes”) required to be withheld by the Company (or the
employing Parent or Subsidiary) on my behalf if and when such tax withholding obligations arise as
a result of the grant by the Company to me of any RSUs, shares of restricted stock or performance
shares. I dispel any inference that I am selling Shares on the basis of or while aware of material
nonpublic information or that such sales evidence my awareness of material nonpublic information or
information at variance with the Company’s statements to investors.

1. Recitals

     a. I intend for this Sales Plan to comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c)(1) under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

     b. I am establishing this Sales Plan in order to permit the orderly disposition of a portion
of the Shares that I acquired (or will acquire) pursuant to an award of RSUs, restricted stock or
performance shares (each, an “Equity Award”). The Shares are being sold pursuant to a mandatory
sale provision in the Agreement to provide the necessary proceeds to satisfy any Taxes if and when
any tax withholding obligations arise, as well any broker or other fees associated with such sales.
This Sales Plan will apply to the mandatory sale of Shares under all future Equity Awards received
by me from the Company.

2. Representations, Warranties and Covenants

     I hereby represent, warrant and covenant that:

     a. I am not aware of any material nonpublic information concerning the Company or its
securities. I am entering into this Sales Plan in good faith and not as part of a plan or scheme
to evade compliance with the federal securities laws.

     b. Once vested, the Shares to be sold under this Sales Plan shall be owned free and clear by
me and are not subject to any liens, security interests or other encumbrances or limitations on
disposition other than those imposed by Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

     c. If I am an executive officer or director of the Company, I acknowledge that any filings
required under Section 16 of the Exchange Act are my sole responsibility.

     d. I am aware that in order for this Sales Plan to constitute a plan pursuant to Rule
10b5-1(c) of the Exchange Act, I must not enter into or alter a corresponding or hedging
transaction with respect to the Shares.

C-1

 

3. Implementation of the Plan

     a. The Company has appointed or shall appoint a broker (the “Broker”) (or the Company may, in
its discretion, permit me to appoint a Broker) to sell Shares pursuant to the terms and conditions
set forth below.

     b. The Broker is authorized to begin selling Shares pursuant to this Sales Plan commencing on
the date that the first Shares under the Equity Award vest. The Broker shall sell such number of
Shares as shall be required to satisfy (i) the [applicable] Taxes in accordance with my then
current applicable withholding rate and (ii) any associated broker or other fees.

     c. I understand that the Broker may not be able to effect a sale due to a market disruption or
a legal, regulatory or contractual restriction applicable to the Broker or any other event or
circumstance (a “Blackout”). I also understand that even in the absence of a Blackout, the Broker
may be unable to effect sales consistent with ordinary principles of best execution, due to
insufficient volume of trading, or other market factors in effect on the date of a sale.

4. Termination. This Sales Plan shall terminate upon the last day of my service with the Company.
This Sales Plan may not be terminated, modified or amended at any time without the prior approval
of the Administrator or the Company’s Compliance Officer.

Please sign and return a paper copy of this Sales Plan to [TITLE] at the Company. If you do not
have access to a printer and would like a paper copy to be sent to you, please contact [NAME] at
