 Exhibit 10.3 

NIMBLE STORAGE, INC. 

2013 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN 
 1.
PURPOSE. The purpose of this Plan is to provide incentives to attract, retain and motivate eligible persons whose present and potential contributions are important to the success of the Company, and any Parents and Subsidiaries that exist
now or in the future, by offering them an opportunity to participate in the Company’s future performance through the grant of Awards. Capitalized terms not defined elsewhere in the text are defined in Section 28. 

2. SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN.  

2.1. Number of Shares Available. Subject to Sections 2.6 and 21 and any other applicable provisions hereof, the total number of
Shares reserved and available for grant and issuance pursuant to this Plan as of the date of adoption of the Plan by the Board, is the lesser of 15,000,000 Shares or 9% of Common Stock and Common Stock equivalents (including options, RSUs, warrants
and the pool of available Shares under the Plan and the 2013 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (it being understood that this calculation will be done collectively with the calculation of the pool of available Shares under the 2013 Employee Stock
Purchase Plan)) outstanding on the date of consummation of the initial public offering of Common Stock plus (i) any reserved shares not issued or subject to outstanding grants under the Company’s 2008 Equity Incentive Plan (the
“Prior Plan”) on the Effective Date (as defined below), (ii) shares that are subject to stock options or other awards granted under the Prior Plan that cease to be subject to such stock options or other awards by forfeiture or
otherwise after the Effective Date, (iii) shares issued under the Prior Plan before or after the Effective Date pursuant to the exercise of stock options that are, after the Effective Date, forfeited, (iv) shares issued under the Prior
Plan that are repurchased by the Company at the original issue price and (v) shares that are subject to stock options or other awards under the Prior Plan that are used to pay the exercise price of an option or withheld to satisfy the tax
withholding obligations related to any award. 
 2.2. Lapsed, Returned Awards. Shares subject to Awards, and Shares issued
under the Plan under any Award, will again be available for grant and issuance in connection with subsequent Awards under this Plan to the extent such Shares: (a) are subject to issuance upon exercise of an Option or SAR granted under this Plan
but which cease to be subject to the Option or SAR for any reason other than exercise of the Option or SAR; (b) are subject to Awards granted under this Plan that are forfeited or are repurchased by the Company at the original issue price;
(c) are subject to Awards granted under this Plan that otherwise terminate without such Shares being issued; or (d) are surrendered pursuant to an Exchange Program. To the extent an Award under the Plan is paid out in cash rather than
Shares, such cash payment will not result in reducing the number of Shares available for issuance under the Plan. Shares used to pay the exercise price of an Award or withheld to satisfy the tax withholding obligations related to an Award will
become available for future grant or sale under the Plan. For the avoidance of doubt, Shares that otherwise become available for grant and issuance because of the provisions of this Section 2.2 shall not include Shares subject to Awards that
initially became available because of the substitution clause in Section 21.2 hereof. 
 2.3. Minimum Share Reserve. At
all times the Company shall reserve and keep available a sufficient number of Shares as shall be required to satisfy the requirements of all outstanding Awards granted under this Plan. 

2.4. Automatic Share Reserve Increase. The number of Shares available for grant and issuance under the Plan shall be
automatically increased February 1 of each of the calendar years 2014 through 2022, by the lesser of (i) five percent (5%) of the number of Shares issued and outstanding on each January 31 immediately prior to the date of
increase or (ii) such number of Shares determined by the Board. 

 2.5. Limitations. No more than thirty million (30,000,000) Shares shall be
issued pursuant to the exercise of ISOs. 
 2.6. Adjustment of Shares. If the number of outstanding Shares is changed by a
stock dividend, recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, subdivision, combination, reclassification or similar change in the capital structure of the Company, without consideration, then (a) the number of Shares reserved for issuance
and future grant under the Plan set forth in Section 2.1, including shares reserved under sub-clauses (i)-(v) of Section 2.1, (b) the Exercise Prices of and number of Shares subject to outstanding Options and SARs, (c) the
number of Shares subject to other outstanding Awards, (d) the maximum number of shares that may be issued as ISOs set forth in Section 2.5, and (e) the maximum number of Shares that may be issued to an individual or to a new Employee
in any one calendar year set forth in Section 3 or to a Non-Employee Director in Section 12 shall be proportionately adjusted, subject to any required action by the Board or the stockholders of the Company and in compliance with applicable
securities laws; provided that fractions of a Share will not be issued. 
 3. ELIGIBILITY. ISOs may be granted only to eligible Employees. All
other Awards may be granted to Employees, Consultants, Directors and Non-Employee Directors; provided such Consultants, Directors and Non-Employee Directors render bona fide services not in connection with the offer and sale of securities in
a capital-raising transaction. No Participant will be eligible to be granted more than One Million (1,000,000) Shares in any calendar year under this Plan pursuant to the grant of Awards except that new Employees (including new Employees who
are also officers and directors of the Company or any Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate) are eligible to be granted up to a maximum of Two Million (2,000,000) Shares in the calendar year in which they commence their employment. 

4. ADMINISTRATION. 

4.1. Committee Composition; Authority. This Plan will be administered by the Committee or by the Board acting as the Committee.
Subject to the general purposes, terms and conditions of this Plan, and to the direction of the Board, the Committee will have full power to implement and carry out this Plan, except, however, the Board shall establish the terms for the grant of an
Award to Non-Employee Directors. The Committee will have the authority to: 
 (a) construe and interpret this Plan, any Award
Agreement and any other agreement or document executed pursuant to this Plan; 
 (b) prescribe, amend and rescind rules and
regulations relating to this Plan or any Award; 
 (c) select persons to receive Awards; 

(d) determine the form and terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, of any Award granted hereunder. Such
terms and conditions include, but are not limited to, the exercise price, the time or times when Awards may vest and be exercised (which may be based on performance criteria) or settled, any vesting acceleration or waiver of forfeiture restrictions,
the method to satisfy tax withholding obligations or any other tax liability legally due, and any restriction or limitation regarding any Award or the Shares relating thereto, based in each case on such factors as the Committee will determine; 

(e) determine the number of Shares or other consideration subject to Awards; 

  
 2 

 (f) determine the Fair Market Value and interpret the applicable provisions of this Plan
and the definition of Fair Market Value in connection with circumstances that impact the Fair Market Value, if necessary; 
 (g)
determine whether Awards will be granted singly, in combination with, in tandem with, in replacement of, or as alternatives to, other Awards under this Plan or any other incentive or compensation plan of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary
of the Company; 
 (h) grant waivers of Plan or Award conditions; 

(i) determine the vesting, exercisability and payment of Awards; 

(j) correct any defect, supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in this Plan, any Award or any Award Agreement; 

(k) determine whether an Award has been earned; 

(l) determine the terms and conditions of any, and to institute any Exchange Program; 

(m) reduce or waive any criteria with respect to Performance Factors; 

(n) adjust Performance Factors to take into account changes in law and accounting or tax rules as the Committee deems necessary or
appropriate to reflect the impact of extraordinary or unusual items, events or circumstances to avoid windfalls or hardships provided that such adjustments are consistent with the regulations promulgated under Section 162(m) of the Code with
respect to persons whose compensation is subject to Section 162(m) of the Code; 
 (o) adopt terms and conditions, rules and/or
procedures (including the adoption of any subplan under this Plan) relating to the operation and administration of the Plan to accommodate requirements of local law and procedures outside of the United States; 

(p) make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of this Plan; and 

(q) delegate any of the foregoing to a subcommittee consisting of one or more executive officers pursuant to a specific delegation as
permitted by applicable law, including Section 157(c) of the Delaware General Corporation Law. 
 4.2.
Committee Interpretation and Discretion. Any determination made by the Committee with respect to any Award shall be made in its sole discretion at the time of grant of the Award or, unless in contravention of any express term of the
Plan or Award, at any later time, and such determination shall be final and binding on the Company and all persons having an interest in any Award under the Plan. Any dispute regarding the interpretation of the Plan or any Award Agreement shall be
submitted by the Participant or Company to the Committee for review. The resolution of such a dispute by the Committee shall be final and binding on the Company and the Participant. The Committee may delegate to one or more executive officers the
authority to review and resolve disputes with respect to Awards held by Participants who are not Insiders, and such resolution shall be final and binding on the Company and the Participant. 

4.3. Section 162(m) of the Code and Section 16 of the Exchange Act. When necessary or desirable for an Award to
qualify as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code the Committee shall include at least two persons who are “outside directors” (as defined under Section 162(m) of the Code) and at least two
(or a majority if more than two then serve on the Committee) such “outside directors” shall approve the grant of such Award and timely determine (as 

  
 3 

 
applicable) the Performance Period and any Performance Factors upon which vesting or settlement of any portion of such Award is to be subject. When required by Section 162(m) of the Code,
prior to settlement of any such Award at least two (or a majority if more than two then serve on the Committee) such “outside directors” then serving on the Committee shall determine and certify in writing the extent to which such
Performance Factors have been timely achieved and the extent to which the Shares subject to such Award have thereby been earned. Awards granted to Participants who are subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act must be approved by two or more
“non-employee directors” (as defined in the regulations promulgated under Section 16 of the Exchange Act). With respect to Participants whose compensation is subject to Section 162(m) of the Code, and provided that such
adjustments are consistent with the regulations promulgated under Section 162(m) of the Code, the Committee may adjust the performance goals to account for changes in law and accounting and to make such adjustments as the Committee deems
necessary or appropriate to reflect the impact of extraordinary or unusual items, events or circumstances to avoid windfalls or hardships, including without limitation (i) restructurings, discontinued operations, extraordinary items, and other
unusual or non-recurring charges, (ii) an event either not directly related to the operations of the Company or not within the reasonable control of the Company’s management, or (iii) a change in accounting standards required by
generally accepted accounting principles. 
 4.4. Documentation. The Award Agreement for a given Award, the Plan and any other
documents may be delivered to, and accepted by, a Participant or any other person in any manner (including electronic distribution or posting) that meets applicable legal requirements. 

4.5. Foreign Award Recipients. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, in order to comply with the laws and
practices in other countries in which the Company and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates operate or have employees or other individuals eligible for Awards, the Committee, in its sole discretion, shall have the power and authority to:
(i) determine which Subsidiaries and Affiliates shall be covered by the Plan; (ii) determine which individuals outside the United States are eligible to participate in the Plan which may include individuals who provide services to the
Company, Subsidiary or Affiliate under an agreement with a foreign nation or agency; (iii) modify the terms and conditions of any Award granted to individuals outside the United States or foreign nationals to comply with applicable foreign
laws, policies, customs and practices; (iv) establish subplans and modify exercise procedures and other terms and procedures, to the extent the Committee determines such actions to be necessary or advisable (and such subplans and/or
modifications shall be attached to this Plan as appendices); provided, however, that no such subplans and/or modifications shall increase the share limitations contained in Section 2.1 hereof; and (v) take any action, before or after an
Award is made, that the Committee determines to be necessary or advisable to obtain approval or comply with any local governmental regulatory exemptions or approvals. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may not take any actions hereunder,
and no Awards shall be granted, that would violate the Exchange Act or any other applicable United States securities law, or any other applicable law. 

5. OPTIONS. An Option is the right but not the obligation to purchase a Share, subject to certain conditions, if applicable. The Committee may
grant Options to eligible Employees, Consultants and Directors and will determine whether such Options will be Incentive Stock Options within the meaning of the Code (“ISOs”) or Nonqualified Stock Options (“NSOs”),
the number of Shares subject to the Option, the Exercise Price of the Option, the period during which the Option may vest and be exercised, and all other terms and conditions of the Option, subject to the following: 

5.1. Option Grant. Each Option granted under this Plan will identify the Option as an ISO or an NSO. An Option may be, but need
not be, awarded upon satisfaction of such Performance Factors during any Performance Period as are set out in advance in the Participant’s individual Award Agreement. If the Option is being earned upon the satisfaction of Performance Factors,
then the Committee will: (x) determine the nature, length and starting date of any Performance Period for each Option; and (y) select from among the Performance Factors to be used to measure the performance, if any. Performance Periods may
overlap and Participants may participate simultaneously with respect to Options that are subject to different performance goals and other criteria. 

  
 4 

 5.2. Date of Grant. The date of grant of an Option will be the date on which the
Committee makes the determination to grant such Option, or a specified future date. The Award Agreement will be delivered to the Participant within a reasonable time after the granting of the Option. 

5.3. Exercise Period. Options may be vested and exercisable within the times or upon the conditions as set forth in the Award
Agreement governing such Option; provided, however, that no Option will be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date the Option is granted; and provided further that no ISO granted to a person who, at
the time the ISO is granted, directly or by attribution owns more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or of any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company (“Ten Percent
Stockholder”) will be exercisable after the expiration of five (5) years from the date the ISO is granted. The Committee also may provide for Options to become exercisable at one time or from time to time, periodically or otherwise, in
such number of Shares or percentage of Shares as the Committee determines. 
 5.4. Exercise Price. The Exercise Price of an
Option will be determined by the Committee when the Option is granted; provided that: (i) the Exercise Price of an Option will be not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of grant and
(ii) the Exercise Price of any ISO granted to a Ten Percent Stockholder will not be less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of grant. Payment for the Shares purchased may be made in
accordance with Section 11 and the Award Agreement and in accordance with any procedures established by the Company. 
 5.5.
Method of Exercise. Any Option granted hereunder will be vested and exercisable according to the terms of the Plan and at such times and under such conditions as determined by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement. An Option
may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share. An Option will be deemed exercised when the Company receives: (i) notice of exercise (in such form as the Committee may specify from time to time) from the person entitled to exercise the Option,
and (ii) full payment for the Shares with respect to which the Option is exercised (together with applicable withholding taxes). Full payment may consist of any consideration and method of payment authorized by the Committee and permitted by
the Award Agreement and the Plan. Shares issued upon exercise of an Option will be issued in the name of the Participant. Until the Shares are issued (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer
agent of the Company), no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a stockholder will exist with respect to the Shares, notwithstanding the exercise of the Option. The Company will issue (or cause to be issued) such Shares promptly
after the Option is exercised. No adjustment will be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date the Shares are issued, except as provided in Section 2.6 of the Plan. Exercising an Option in any manner will
decrease the number of Shares thereafter available, both for purposes of the Plan and for sale under the Option, by the number of Shares as to which the Option is exercised. 

(a) Termination of Service. If the Participant’s Service terminates for any reason except for Cause or the
Participant’s death or Disability, then the Participant may exercise such Participant’s Options only to the extent that such Options would have been exercisable by the Participant on the date Participant’s Service terminates no later
than three (3) months after the date Participant’s Service terminates (or such shorter or longer time period as may be determined by the Committee, with any exercise beyond three (3) months after the date Participant’s Service
terminates deemed to be the exercise of an NSO), but in any event no later than the expiration date of the Options. 
 (b)
Death. If the Participant’s Service terminates because of the Participant’s death (or the Participant dies within three (3) months after Participant’s Service terminates other than for Cause or because of the
Participant’s Disability), then the Participant’s Options may be exercised only to the 

  
 5 

 
extent that such Options would have been exercisable by the Participant on the date Participant’s Service terminates and must be exercised by the Participant’s legal representative, or
authorized assignee, no later than eighteen (18) months after the date Participant’s Service terminates (or such shorter or longer time period as may be determined by the Committee), but in any event no later than the expiration date of
the Options. 
 (c) Disability. If the Participant’s Service terminates because of the Participant’s Disability,
then the Participant’s Options may be exercised only to the extent that such Options would have been exercisable by the Participant on the date Participant’s Service terminates and must be exercised by the Participant (or the
Participant’s legal representative or authorized assignee) no later than twelve (12) months after the date Participant’s Service terminates (with any exercise beyond (a) three (3) months after the date Participant’s
Service terminates when the termination of Service is for a Disability that is not a “permanent and total disability” as defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code, or (b) twelve (12) months after the date Participant’s
Service terminates when the termination of Service is for a Disability that is a “permanent and total disability” as defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code, deemed to be exercise of an NSO), but in any event no later than the
expiration date of the Options. 
 (d) Cause. If the Participant is terminated for Cause, then Participant’s Options
shall expire on such Participant’s date of termination of Service, or at such later time and on such conditions as are determined by the Committee, but in any no event later than the expiration date of the Options. Unless otherwise provided in
the Award Agreement, Cause shall have the meaning set forth in the Plan. 
 5.6. Limitations on Exercise. The Committee may
specify a minimum number of Shares that may be purchased on any exercise of an Option, provided that such minimum number will not prevent any Participant from exercising the Option for the full number of Shares for which it is then exercisable. 

5.7. Limitations on ISOs. With respect to Awards granted as ISOs, to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of the
Shares with respect to which such ISOs are exercisable for the first time by the Participant during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company and any Parent or Subsidiary) exceeds one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000), such Options will be
treated as NSOs. For purposes of this Section 5.7, ISOs will be taken into account in the order in which they were granted. The Fair Market Value of the Shares will be determined as of the time the Option with respect to such Shares is granted.
In the event that the Code or the regulations promulgated thereunder are amended after the Effective Date to provide for a different limit on the Fair Market Value of Shares permitted to be subject to ISOs, such different limit will be automatically
incorporated herein and will apply to any Options granted after the effective date of such amendment. 
 5.8. Modification,
Extension or Renewal. The Committee may modify, extend or renew outstanding Options and authorize the grant of new Options in substitution therefor, provided that any such action may not, without the written consent of a Participant, impair any
of such Participant’s rights under any Option previously granted. Any outstanding ISO that is modified, extended, renewed or otherwise altered will be treated in accordance with Section 424(h) of the Code. Subject to Section 18 of
this Plan, by written notice to affected Participants, the Committee may reduce the Exercise Price of outstanding Options without the consent of such Participants; provided, however, that the Exercise Price may not be reduced below the
Fair Market Value on the date the action is taken to reduce the Exercise Price. 
 5.9. No Disqualification. Notwithstanding
any other provision in this Plan, no term of this Plan relating to ISOs will be interpreted, amended or altered, nor will any discretion or authority granted under this Plan be exercised, so as to disqualify this Plan under Section 422 of the
Code or, without the consent of the Participant affected, to disqualify any ISO under Section 422 of the Code. 
 6. RESTRICTED STOCK
AWARDS. A Restricted Stock Award is an offer by the Company to sell to an eligible Employee, Consultant, or Director Shares that are subject to restrictions (“Restricted 

  
 6 

 
Stock”). The Committee will determine to whom an offer will be made, the number of Shares the Participant may purchase, the Purchase Price, the restrictions under which
the Shares will be subject and all other terms and conditions of the Restricted Stock Award, subject to the Plan. 
 6.1.
Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement. All purchases under a Restricted Stock Award will be evidenced by an Award Agreement. Except as may otherwise be provided in an Award Agreement, a Participant accepts a Restricted Stock Award
by signing and delivering to the Company an Award Agreement with full payment of the Purchase Price, within thirty (30) days from the date the Award Agreement was delivered to the Participant. If the Participant does not accept such Award
within thirty (30) days, then the offer of such Restricted Stock Award will terminate, unless the Committee determines otherwise. 

6.2. Purchase Price. The Purchase Price for a Restricted Stock Award will be determined by the Committee and may be less
than Fair Market Value on the date the Restricted Stock Award is granted. Payment of the Purchase Price must be made in accordance with Section 11 of the Plan, and the Award Agreement and in accordance with any procedures established by the
Company. 
 6.3. Terms of Restricted Stock Awards. Restricted Stock Awards will be subject to such restrictions as the
Committee may impose or are required by law. These restrictions may be based on completion of a specified number of years of service with the Company or upon completion of Performance Factors, if any, during any Performance Period as set out in
advance in the Participant’s Award Agreement. Prior to the grant of a Restricted Stock Award, the Committee shall: (a) determine the nature, length and starting date of any Performance Period for the Restricted Stock Award; (b) select
from among the Performance Factors to be used to measure performance goals, if any; and (c) determine the number of Shares that may be awarded to the Participant. Performance Periods may overlap and a Participant may participate simultaneously
with respect to Restricted Stock Awards that are subject to different Performance Periods and having different performance goals and other criteria. 

6.4. Termination of Service. Except as may be set forth in the Participant’s Award Agreement, vesting ceases on such date
Participant’s Service terminates (unless determined otherwise by the Committee). 
 7. STOCK BONUS AWARDS. A Stock Bonus Award is an
award to an eligible Employee, Consultant, or Director of Shares for Services to be rendered or for past Services already rendered to the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary. All Stock Bonus Awards shall be made pursuant to an Award Agreement. No
payment from the Participant will be required for Shares awarded pursuant to a Stock Bonus Award. 
 7.1. Terms of Stock Bonus
Awards. The Committee will determine the number of Shares to be awarded to the Participant under a Stock Bonus Award and any restrictions thereon. These restrictions may be based upon completion of a specified number of years of service with the
Company or upon satisfaction of performance goals based on Performance Factors during any Performance Period as set out in advance in the Participant’s Stock Bonus Agreement. Prior to the grant of any Stock Bonus Award the Committee shall:
(a) determine the nature, length and starting date of any Performance Period for the Stock Bonus Award; (b) select from among the Performance Factors to be used to measure performance goals; and (c) determine the number of Shares that
may be awarded to the Participant. Performance Periods may overlap and a Participant may participate simultaneously with respect to Stock Bonus Awards that are subject to different Performance Periods and different performance goals and other
criteria. 
 7.2. Form of Payment to Participant. Payment may be made in the form of cash, whole Shares, or a combination
thereof, based on the Fair Market Value of the Shares earned under a Stock Bonus Award on the date of payment, as determined in the sole discretion of the Committee. 

  
 7 

 7.3. Termination of Service. Except as may be set forth in the Participant’s
Award Agreement, vesting ceases on such date Participant’s Service terminates (unless determined otherwise by the Committee). 
 8. STOCK
APPRECIATION RIGHTS. A Stock Appreciation Right (“SAR”) is an award to an eligible Employee, Consultant, or Director that may be settled in cash, or Shares (which may consist of Restricted Stock), having a value equal
to (a) the difference between the Fair Market Value on the date of exercise over the Exercise Price multiplied by (b) the number of Shares with respect to which the SAR is being settled (subject to any maximum number of Shares that may be
issuable as specified in an Award Agreement). All SARs shall be made pursuant to an Award Agreement. 
 8.1. Terms of SARs.
The Committee will determine the terms of each SAR including, without limitation: (a) the number of Shares subject to the SAR; (b) the Exercise Price and the time or times during which the SAR may be settled; (c) the consideration to
be distributed on settlement of the SAR; and (d) the effect of the Participant’s termination of Service on each SAR. The Exercise Price of the SAR will be determined by the Committee when the SAR is granted, and may not be less than Fair
Market Value. A SAR may be awarded upon satisfaction of Performance Factors, if any, during any Performance Period as are set out in advance in the Participant’s individual Award Agreement. If the SAR is being earned upon the satisfaction of
Performance Factors, then the Committee will: (x) determine the nature, length and starting date of any Performance Period for each SAR; and (y) select from among the Performance Factors to be used to measure the performance, if any.
Performance Periods may overlap and Participants may participate simultaneously with respect to SARs that are subject to different Performance Factors and other criteria. 

8.2. Exercise Period and Expiration Date. A SAR will be exercisable within the times or upon the occurrence of events determined
by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement governing such SAR. The SAR Agreement shall set forth the expiration date; provided that no SAR will be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date the SAR is granted.
The Committee may also provide for SARs to become exercisable at one time or from time to time, periodically or otherwise (including, without limitation, upon the attainment during a Performance Period of performance goals based on Performance
Factors), in such number of Shares or percentage of the Shares subject to the SAR as the Committee determines. Except as may be set forth in the Participant’s Award Agreement, vesting ceases on the date Participant’s Service terminates
(unless determined otherwise by the Committee). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the rules of Section 5.6 also will apply to SARs. 

8.3. Form of Settlement. Upon exercise of a SAR, a Participant will be entitled to receive payment from the Company in an amount
determined by multiplying (i) the difference between the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of exercise over the Exercise Price; times (ii) the number of Shares with respect to which the SAR is exercised. At the discretion of the
Committee, the payment from the Company for the SAR exercise may be in cash, in Shares of equivalent value, or in some combination thereof. The portion of a SAR being settled may be paid currently or on a deferred basis with such interest or
dividend equivalent, if any, as the Committee determines, provided that the terms of the SAR and any deferral satisfy the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. 

8.4. Termination of Service. Except as may be set forth in the Participant’s Award Agreement, vesting ceases on such date
Participant’s Service terminates (unless determined otherwise by the Committee). 
 9. RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS. A Restricted Stock Unit
(“RSU”) is an award to an eligible Employee, Consultant, or Director covering a number of Shares that may be settled in cash, or by issuance of those Shares (which may consist of Restricted Stock). All RSUs shall be made pursuant to
an Award Agreement. 

  
 8 

 9.1. Terms of RSUs. The Committee will determine the terms of an RSU including,
without limitation: (a) the number of Shares subject to the RSU; (b) the time or times during which the RSU may be settled; (c) the consideration to be distributed on settlement; and (d) the effect of the Participant’s
termination of Service on each RSU. An RSU may be awarded upon satisfaction of such performance goals based on Performance Factors during any Performance Period as are set out in advance in the Participant’s Award Agreement. If the RSU is being
earned upon satisfaction of Performance Factors, then the Committee will: (x) determine the nature, length and starting date of any Performance Period for the RSU; (y) select from among the Performance Factors to be used to measure the
performance, if any; and (z) determine the number of Shares deemed subject to the RSU. Performance Periods may overlap and participants may participate simultaneously with respect to RSUs that are subject to different Performance Periods and
different performance goals and other criteria. 
 9.2. Form and Timing of Settlement. Payment of earned RSUs shall be made as
soon as practicable after the date(s) determined by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement. The Committee, in its sole discretion, may settle earned RSUs in cash, Shares, or a combination of both. The Committee may also permit a
Participant to defer payment under a RSU to a date or dates after the RSU is earned provided that the terms of the RSU and any deferral satisfy the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. 

9.3. Termination of Service. Except as may be set forth in the Participant’s Award Agreement, vesting ceases on such date
Participant’s Service terminates (unless determined otherwise by the Committee). 
 10. PERFORMANCE AWARDS. A Performance Award is an
award to an eligible Employee, Consultant, or Director of a cash bonus or an award of Performance Shares denominated in Shares that may be settled in cash, or by issuance of those Shares (which may consist of Restricted Stock). Grants of Performance
Awards shall be made pursuant to an Award Agreement. 
 10.1. Terms of Performance Shares. The Committee will determine, and
each Award Agreement shall set forth, the terms of each Performance Award including, without limitation: (a) the amount of any cash bonus, (b) the number of Shares deemed subject to an award of Performance Shares; (c) the Performance
Factors and Performance Period that shall determine the time and extent to which each award of Performance Shares shall be settled; (d) the consideration to be distributed on settlement, and (e) the effect of the Participant’s
termination of Service on each Performance Award. In establishing Performance Factors and the Performance Period the Committee will: (x) determine the nature, length and starting date of any Performance Period; (y) select from among the
Performance Factors to be used; and (z) determine the number of Shares deemed subject to the award of Performance Shares. Prior to settlement the Committee shall determine the extent to which Performance Awards have been earned. Performance
Periods may overlap and Participants may participate simultaneously with respect to Performance Awards that are subject to different Performance Periods and different performance goals and other criteria. No Participant will be eligible to receive
more than $1,000,000 in Performance Awards in any calendar year under this Plan. 
 10.2. Value, Earning and Timing of Performance
Shares. Each Performance Share will have an initial value equal to the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant. After the applicable Performance Period has ended, the holder of Performance Shares will be entitled to receive a payout of
the number of Performance Shares earned by the Participant over the Performance Period, to be determined as a function of the extent to which the corresponding Performance Factors or other vesting provisions have been achieved. The Committee, in its
sole discretion, may pay earned Performance Shares in the form of cash, in Shares (which have an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the value of the earned Performance Shares at the close of the applicable Performance Period) or in a combination
thereof. 

  
 9 

 10.3. Termination of Service. Except as may be set forth in the Participant’s
Award Agreement, vesting ceases on such date Participant’s Service terminates (unless determined otherwise by the Committee). 
 11. PAYMENT FOR
SHARE PURCHASES. Payment from a Participant for Shares purchased pursuant to this Plan may be made in cash or by check or, where expressly approved for the Participant by the Committee and where permitted by law (and to the extent not
otherwise set forth in the applicable Award Agreement):

12. GRANTS TO NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS. Non-Employee Directors are eligible to receive any type of Award offered under this Plan except ISOs.
Awards pursuant to this Section 12 may be automatically made pursuant to policy adopted by the Board, or made from time to time as determined in the discretion of the Board. The aggregate number of Shares subject to Awards granted to a
Non-Employee Director pursuant to this Section 12 in any calendar year shall not exceed 1,000,000. 
 12.1. Eligibility.
Awards pursuant to this Section 12 shall be granted only to Non-Employee Directors. A Non-Employee Director who is elected or re-elected as a member of the Board will be eligible to receive an Award under this Section 12. 

12.2. Vesting, Exercisability and Settlement. Except as set forth in Section 21, Awards shall vest, become exercisable and
be settled as determined by the Board. With respect to Options and SARs, the exercise price granted to Non-Employee Directors shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of the Shares at the time that such Option or SAR is granted. 

12.3. Election to receive Awards in Lieu of Cash. A Non-Employee Director may elect to receive his or her annual retainer
payments and/or meeting fees from the Company in the form of cash or Awards or a combination thereof, as determined by the Committee. Such Awards shall be issued under the Plan. An election under this Section 12.3 shall be filed with the
Company on the form prescribed by the Company. 
 13. WITHHOLDING TAXES. 

13.1. Withholding Generally. Whenever Shares are to be issued in satisfaction of Awards granted under this Plan or the
applicable tax event occurs, the Company may require the Participant to remit to the Company, or to the Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate employing the Participant, an amount sufficient to satisfy applicable U.S. federal, state, local and
international withholding tax requirements or any other tax or social insurance liability legally due from the Participant prior to the delivery of Shares pursuant to exercise or settlement of any Award. Whenever payments in satisfaction of Awards
granted 

  
 10 

 
under this Plan are to be made in cash, such payment will be net of an amount sufficient to satisfy applicable U.S. federal, state, local and international withholding tax and social
insurance requirements or any other tax liability legally due from the Participant. 
 13.2. Stock Withholding. The Committee,
or its delegate(s), as permitted by applicable law, in its sole discretion and pursuant to such procedures as it may specify from time to time and to limitations of local law, may require or permit a Participant to satisfy such tax withholding
obligation or any other tax liability legally due from the Participant, in whole or in part by (without limitation) (i) paying cash, (ii) electing to have the Company withhold otherwise deliverable cash or Shares having a Fair Market Value
equal to the minimum statutory amount required to be withheld, (iii) delivering to the Company already-owned Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the minimum amount required to be withheld or (iv) withholding from the proceeds of the
sale of otherwise deliverable Shares acquired pursuant to an Award either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company. The Fair Market Value of the Shares to be withheld or delivered will be determined as of the date
that the taxes are required to be withheld. 
 14. TRANSFERABILITY.  

14.1. Transfer Generally. Unless determined otherwise by the Committee or pursuant to Section 14.2, an Award 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. If the Committee makes an Award transferable, including, without limitation, by instrument to an inter
vivos or testamentary trust in which the Awards are to be passed to beneficiaries upon the death of the trustor (settlor) or by gift or by domestic relations order to a Permitted Transferee, such Award will contain such additional terms and
conditions as the Committee deems appropriate. All Awards shall be exercisable: (i) during the Participant’s lifetime only by (A) the Participant, or (B) the Participant’s guardian or legal representative; (ii) after
the Participant’s death, by the legal representative of the Participant’s heirs or legatees; and (iii) in the case of all awards except ISOs, by a Permitted Transferee. 

14.2. Award Transfer Program. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of the Plan, the Committee shall have all discretion and
authority to determine and implement the terms and conditions of any Award Transfer Program instituted pursuant to this Section 14.2 and shall have the authority to amend the terms of any Award participating, or otherwise eligible to
participate in, the Award Transfer Program, including (but not limited to) the authority to (i) amend (including to extend) the expiration date, post-termination exercise period and/or forfeiture conditions of any such Award, (ii) amend or
remove any provisions of the Award relating to the Award holder’s continued service to the Company or its Parent or any Subsidiary, (iii) amend the permissible payment methods with respect to the exercise or purchase of any such Award,
(iv) amend the adjustments to be implemented in the event of changes in the capitalization and other similar events with respect to such Award, and (v) make such other changes to the terms of such Award as the Committee deems necessary or
appropriate in its sole discretion. 
 15. PRIVILEGES OF STOCK OWNERSHIP; RESTRICTIONS ON SHARES. 

15.1. Voting and Dividends. No Participant will have any of the rights of a stockholder with respect to any Shares until the
Shares are issued to the Participant, except for any dividend equivalent rights permitted by an applicable Award Agreement. After Shares are issued to the Participant, the Participant will be a stockholder and have all the rights of a stockholder
with respect to such Shares, including the right to vote and receive all dividends or other distributions made or paid with respect to such Shares; provided, that if such Shares are Restricted Stock, then any new, additional or different
securities the Participant may become entitled to receive with respect to such Shares by virtue of a stock dividend, stock split or any other change in the corporate or capital structure of the Company will be subject to the same restrictions as the
Restricted Stock; provided, further, that the Participant will have no right to retain such stock dividends or stock distributions with respect to Shares that are repurchased at the Participant’s Purchase Price or Exercise Price,
as the case may be, pursuant to Section 15.2. 

  
 11 

 15.2. Restrictions on Shares. At the discretion of the Committee, the Company may
reserve to itself and/or its assignee(s) a right to repurchase (a “Right of Repurchase”) a portion of any or all Unvested Shares held by a Participant following such Participant’s termination of Service at any time within ninety
(90) days (or such longer or shorter time determined by the Committee) after the later of the date Participant’s Service terminates and the date the Participant purchases Shares under this Plan, for cash and/or cancellation of purchase
money indebtedness, at the Participant’s Purchase Price or Exercise Price, as the case may be. 
 16. CERTIFICATES. All Shares or other
securities whether or not certificated, delivered under this Plan will be subject to such stock transfer orders, legends and other restrictions as the Committee may deem necessary or advisable, including restrictions under any applicable U.S.
federal, state or foreign securities law, or any rules, regulations and other requirements of the SEC or any stock exchange or automated quotation system upon which the Shares may be listed or quoted and any non-U.S. exchange controls or securities
law restrictions to which the Shares are subject. 
 17. ESCROW; PLEDGE OF SHARES. To enforce any restrictions on a Participant’s Shares,
the Committee may require the Participant to deposit all certificates representing Shares, together with stock powers or other instruments of transfer approved by the Committee, appropriately endorsed in blank, with the Company or an agent
designated by the Company to hold in escrow until such restrictions have lapsed or terminated, and the Committee may cause a legend or legends referencing such restrictions to be placed on the certificates. Any Participant who is permitted to
execute a promissory note as partial or full consideration for the purchase of Shares under this Plan will be required to pledge and deposit with the Company all or part of the Shares so purchased as collateral to secure the payment of the
Participant’s obligation to the Company under the promissory note; provided, however, that the Committee may require or accept other or additional forms of collateral to secure the payment of such obligation and, in any event, the
Company will have full recourse against the Participant under the promissory note notwithstanding any pledge of the Participant’s Shares or other collateral. In connection with any pledge of the Shares, the Participant will be required to
execute and deliver a written pledge agreement in such form as the Committee will from time to time approve. The Shares purchased with the promissory note may be released from the pledge on a pro rata basis as the promissory note is paid. 

18. REPRICING; EXCHANGE AND BUYOUT OF AWARDS. Without prior stockholder approval, the Committee may (i) reprice Options or SARs (and where
such repricing is a reduction in the Exercise Price of outstanding Options or SARs, the consent of the affected Participants is not required provided written notice is provided to them, notwithstanding any adverse tax consequences to them arising
from the repricing), and (ii) with the consent of the respective Participants (unless not required pursuant to Section 5.8 of the Plan), pay cash or issue new Awards in exchange for the surrender and cancellation of any, or all,
outstanding Awards. 
 19. SECURITIES LAW AND OTHER REGULATORY COMPLIANCE. An Award will not be effective unless such Award is in compliance
with all applicable U.S. and foreign federal and state securities and exchange control laws, rules and regulations of any governmental body, and the requirements of any stock exchange or automated quotation system upon which the Shares may then be
listed or quoted, as they are in effect on the date of grant of the Award and also on the date of exercise or other issuance. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Plan, the Company will have no obligation to issue or deliver certificates for
Shares under this Plan prior to: (a) obtaining any approvals from governmental agencies that the Company determines are necessary or advisable; and/or (b) completion of any registration or other qualification of such Shares under any state
or federal or foreign law or ruling of any governmental body that the Company determines to be necessary or advisable. The Company will be under no obligation to register the Shares with the SEC or to effect compliance with the registration,
qualification or listing requirements of any foreign or state securities laws, exchange control laws, stock exchange or automated quotation system, and the Company will have no liability for any inability or failure to do so. 

  
 12 

 20. NO OBLIGATION TO EMPLOY. Nothing in this Plan or any Award granted under this Plan will confer
or be deemed to confer on any Participant any right to continue in the employ of, or to continue any other relationship with, the Company or any Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate or limit in any way the right of the Company or any Parent, Subsidiary
or Affiliate to terminate Participant’s employment or other relationship at any time. 
 21. CORPORATE TRANSACTIONS. 

21.1. Assumption or Replacement of Awards by Successor. In the event of a Corporate Transaction any or
all outstanding Awards may be assumed or replaced by the successor corporation, which assumption or replacement shall be binding on all Participants. In the alternative, the successor corporation may substitute equivalent Awards or provide
substantially similar consideration to Participants as was provided to stockholders (after taking into account the existing provisions of the Awards). The successor corporation may also issue, in place of outstanding Shares of the Company held by
the Participant, substantially similar shares or other property subject to repurchase restrictions no less favorable to the Participant. In the event such successor or acquiring corporation (if any) refuses to assume, convert, replace or substitute
Awards, as provided above, pursuant to a Corporate Transaction, then notwithstanding any other provision in this Plan to the contrary, such Awards shall have their vesting accelerate as to all shares subject to such Award (and any applicable right
of repurchase fully lapse) immediately prior to the Corporate Transaction. In addition, following a Corporate Transaction, (a) 50% of the total number of Shares subject to each Award held by an Employee shall become vested if the holder is
subject to an Involuntary Termination within 12 months after the Corporate Transaction; and (b) 25% of the total number of Shares subject to each Award held by an Employee shall become vested if the holder is subject to an Involuntary
Termination during the period beginning on the first date following the twelve (12) month anniversary of the Corporate Transaction and ending on the twenty-four (24) month anniversary of the Corporate Transaction; it being understood that
the vesting acceleration set forth in the preceding clauses (a) and (b) is in addition to vesting of the Shares that has occurred prior to the Involuntary Termination. The Board shall have full power and authority to assign the
Company’s right to repurchase or re-acquire or forfeiture rights to such successor or acquiring corporation. In addition, in the event such successor or acquiring corporation refuses to assume, convert, replace or substitute Awards, as provided
above, pursuant to a Corporate Transaction, the Committee will notify the Participant in writing or electronically that such Award will be exercisable for a period of time determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, and such Award will
terminate upon the expiration of such period. Awards need not be treated similarly in a Corporate Transaction. The provisions of this Section 21.1 shall apply to Awards outstanding on the Effective Date under the Prior Plan; provided the
vesting acceleration provisions set forth in any employment agreement or letter or similar agreement between the Company and an employee in effect on the Effective Date, to the extent more favorable to such employee, will continue to apply to the
equity awards held by the employee on the Effective Date. 
 21.2. Assumption of Awards by the Company. The Company, from time
to time, also may substitute or assume outstanding awards granted by another company, whether in connection with an acquisition of such other company or otherwise, by either; (a) granting an Award under this Plan in substitution of such other
company’s award; or (b) assuming such award as if it had been granted under this Plan if the terms of such assumed award could be applied to an Award granted under this Plan. Such substitution or assumption will be permissible if the
holder of the substituted or assumed award would have been eligible to be granted an Award under this Plan if the other company had applied the rules of this Plan to such grant. In the event the Company assumes an award granted by another company,
the terms and conditions of such award will remain unchanged (except that the Purchase Price or the Exercise Price, as the case may be, and the number and nature of Shares issuable upon exercise or settlement of any such Award will be
adjusted appropriately pursuant to Section 424(a) of the Code). In the event the Company elects to grant a new Option in substitution rather than assuming an existing option, such new Option may be granted with a similarly adjusted Exercise
Price. Substitute Awards shall not reduce the number of Shares authorized for grant under the Plan or authorized for grant to a Participant in a calendar year. 

21.3. Non-Employee Directors’ Awards. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein, in the event of a Corporate
Transaction, the vesting of all Awards granted to Non-Employee Directors shall accelerate and such Awards shall become exercisable (as applicable) in full prior to the consummation of such event at such times and on such conditions as the Committee
determines. 

  
 13 

 22. ADOPTION AND STOCKHOLDER APPROVAL. This Plan shall be submitted for the approval of the
Company’s stockholders, consistent with applicable laws, within twelve (12) months before or after the date this Plan is adopted by the Board. 

23. TERM OF PLAN/GOVERNING LAW. Unless earlier terminated as provided herein, this Plan will become effective on the Effective Date and will
terminate ten (10) years from the date this Plan is adopted by the Board. This Plan and all Awards granted hereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware (excluding its conflict of laws rules).

 24. AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION OF PLAN. The Board may at any time terminate or amend this Plan in any respect, including, without limitation,
amendment of any form of Award Agreement or instrument to be executed pursuant to this Plan; provided, however, that the Board will not, without the approval of the stockholders of the Company, amend this Plan in any manner that
requires such stockholder approval; provided further, that a Participant’s Award shall be governed by the version of this Plan then in effect at the time such Award was granted. 

25. NONEXCLUSIVITY OF THE PLAN. Neither the adoption of this Plan by the Board, the submission of this Plan to the stockholders of the Company
for approval, nor any provision of this Plan will be construed as creating any limitations on the power of the Board to adopt such additional compensation arrangements as it may deem desirable, including, without limitation, the granting of stock
awards and bonuses otherwise than under this Plan, and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases. 
 26.
INSIDER TRADING POLICY. Each Participant who receives an Award shall comply with any policy adopted by the Company from time to time covering transactions in the Company’s securities by Employees, officers and/or directors of the
Company. 
 27. ALL AWARDS SUBJECT TO COMPANY CLAWBACK OR RECOUPMENT POLICY. All Awards, subject to applicable law, shall be subject to
clawback or recoupment pursuant to any compensation clawback or recoupment policy adopted by the Board or required by law during the term of Participant’s employment or other service with the Company that is applicable to executive officers,
employees, directors or other service providers of the Company, and in addition to any other remedies available under such policy and applicable law, may require the cancellation of outstanding Awards and the recoupment of any gains realized with
respect to Awards.

Cause shall be made in good faith by the Company and shall be final and binding on the Participant. The foregoing definition does not in any way limit the Company’s ability to terminate a Participant’s employment or consulting relationship
at any time as provided in Section 20 above, and the term “Company” will be interpreted to include any Subsidiary or Parent, as appropriate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the foregoing definition of “Cause” may, in part or

promulgated thereunder from time to time.

 STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT 

NIMBLE STORAGE, INC. 2013 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN 

You have been granted an Option by Nimble Storage, Inc. (the “Company”) under the 2013 Equity Incentive
Plan (the “Plan”) to purchase Shares (the “Option”), subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, the Notice of Stock Option Grant (the “Notice of Grant”) and this Stock
Option Agreement (the “Agreement”). 
 1. Grant of Option. You have been granted an
Option for the number of Shares set forth in the Notice of Grant at the exercise price per Share set forth in the Notice of Grant (the “exercise price”). In the event of a conflict between the terms and
conditions of the Plan and the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Plan shall prevail. If designated in the Notice of Grant as an Incentive Stock Option (“ISO”), this Option
is intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option under Section 422 of the Code. However, if this Option is intended to be an ISO, to the extent that it exceeds the $100,000 rule of Code Section 422(d) it shall be treated as a
Nonqualified Stock Option (“NSO”).  
 2. Termination Period. 

(a) General Rule. If your Service terminates for any reason except death or Disability, and other than for Cause, then this Option will
expire at the close of business at Company headquarters on the date three months after your termination date. If your Service is terminated for Cause, this Option will expire upon the date of such termination. The Company determines when your
Service terminates for all purposes under this Agreement. 
 (b) Death; Disability. If you die before your Service terminates, then
this Option will expire at the close of business at Company headquarters on the date 18 months after the date of death. If your Service terminates because of your Disability, then this Option will expire at the close of business at Company
headquarters on the date 12 months after your termination date. 
 (c) No Notice. You are responsible for keeping track of these
exercise periods following your termination of Service for any reason. The Company will not provide further notice of such periods. In no event shall this Option be exercised later than the Expiration Date set forth in the Notice of Grant. 

3. Exercise of Option. 

(a) Right to Exercise. This Option is exercisable during its term in accordance with the Vesting Schedule set forth in the Notice of
Grant and the applicable provisions of the Plan and this Agreement. In the event of your death, Disability, or other cessation of Service, the exercisability of the Option is governed by the applicable provisions of the Plan, the Notice of Grant and
this Agreement. This Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share. 
 (b) Method of Exercise. This Option is exercisable by
delivery of an exercise notice in a form specified by the Company (the “Exercise Notice”), which shall 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 shall be delivered in person, by mail, via electronic mail or
facsimile or by other authorized method to the Secretary of the Company or other person designated by the Company. The Exercise Notice shall be accompanied by payment of the aggregate exercise price as to all Exercised Shares. This Option shall be
deemed to be exercised upon receipt by the Company of a fully executed Exercise Notice accompanied by the aggregate exercise price and any applicable tax withholding due upon exercise of the Option. 

  
 1 

 (c) Exercise by Another. If another person wants to exercise this Option after it has been
transferred to him or her in compliance with this Agreement, that person must prove to the Company’s satisfaction that he or she is entitled to exercise this Option. That person must also complete the proper Exercise Notice form (as described
above) and pay the exercise price (as described below) and any applicable tax withholding due upon exercise of the Option (as described below). 

4. Method of Payment. Payment of the aggregate exercise price shall be by any of the following, or a combination thereof, at
your election: 
 (a) your personal check, wire transfer, or a cashier’s check; 

(b) certificates for shares of Company stock that you own, along with any forms needed to effect a transfer of those shares to the Company;
the value of the shares, determined as of the effective date of the Option exercise, will be applied to the Option exercise price. Instead of surrendering shares of Company stock, you may attest to the ownership of those shares on a form provided by
the Company and have the same number of shares subtracted from the Option shares issued to you. However, you may not surrender, or attest to the ownership of, shares of Company stock in payment of the exercise price of your Option if your action
would cause the Company to recognize compensation expense (or additional compensation expense) with respect to this Option for financial reporting purposes; 

(c) cashless exercise through irrevocable directions to a securities broker approved by the Company to sell all or part of the Shares covered
by this Option and to deliver to the Company from the sale proceeds an amount sufficient to pay the Option exercise price and any withholding taxes. The balance of the sale proceeds, if any, will be delivered to you. The directions must be given by
signing a special notice of exercise form provided by the Company; or 
 (d) other method authorized by the Company. 

5. Non-Transferability of Option. In general, except as provided below, only you may exercise this Option prior to your death.
You may not transfer or assign this Option, except as provided below. For instance, you may not sell this Option or use it as security for a loan. If you attempt to do any of these things, this Option will immediately become invalid. You may,
however, dispose of this Option in your will or in a beneficiary designation. However, if this Option is designated as a NSO in the Notice of Grant, then the Committee (as defined in the Plan) may, in its sole discretion, allow you to transfer this
Option as a gift to one or more family members. For purposes of this Agreement, “family member” means a child, stepchild, grandchild, parent, stepparent, grandparent, spouse, former spouse, sibling, niece, nephew, mother-in- law,
father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law or sister-in-law (including adoptive relationships), any individual sharing your household (other than a tenant or employee), a trust in which one or more of these individuals have more than
50% of the beneficial interest, a foundation in which you or one or more of these persons control the management of assets, and any entity in which you or one or more of these persons own more than 50% of the voting interest. In addition, if this
Option is designated as a NSO in the Notice of Grant, then the Committee may, in its sole discretion, allow you to transfer this Option to your spouse or former spouse pursuant to a domestic relations order in settlement of marital property rights.
The Committee will allow you to transfer this Option only if both you and the transferee(s) execute the forms prescribed by the Committee, which include the consent of the transferee(s) to be bound by this Agreement. This Option may not be
transferred in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution or court order and may be exercised during the lifetime of you only by you, your guardian, or legal representative, as permitted in the Plan. The terms of the
Plan and this Agreement shall be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs, successors and assigns of you. 
 6. Term
of Option. This Option shall in any event expire on the expiration date set forth in the Notice of Grant, which date is 10 years after the grant date (five years after the grant date if this Option is designated as an ISO in the Notice
of Grant and Section 5.3 of the Plan applies). 

  
 2 

 7. Tax Consequences. You should consult a tax advisor for tax consequences relating
to this Option in the jurisdiction in which you are subject to tax. YOU SHOULD CONSULT A TAX ADVISER BEFORE EXERCISING THIS OPTION OR DISPOSING OF THE SHARES. 

(a) Exercising the Option. You will not be allowed to exercise this Option unless you make arrangements acceptable to the Company to
pay any withholding taxes that may be due as a result of the Option exercise. 
 (b) Notice of Disqualifying Disposition of ISO
Shares. If you sell or otherwise dispose of any of the Shares acquired pursuant to an ISO on or before the later of (i) two years after the grant date, or (ii) one year after the exercise date, you shall immediately notify the Company
in writing of such disposition. You agree that he or she may be subject to income tax withholding by the Company on the compensation income recognized from such early disposition of ISO Shares by payment in cash or out of the current compensation
paid to you. 
 8. Withholding Taxes and Stock Withholding. Regardless of any action the Company or your actual employer (the
“Employer”) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), you acknowledge that the ultimate
liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by you is and remains your responsibility and 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 the grant, vesting or exercise of the Option, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such exercise and the receipt of any dividends; and (2) do not commit to structure the terms of the grant
or any aspect of the Option to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related Items. 
 Prior to exercise of the Option, you shall pay or make adequate
arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all withholding and payment on account obligations of the Company and/or the Employer. In this regard, you authorize the Company and/or the Employer to withhold all applicable
Tax-Related Items legally payable by you from your wages or other cash compensation paid to you by the Company and/or the Employer. With the Company’s consent, these arrangements may also include, if permissible under local law,
(a) withholding Shares that otherwise would be issued to you when you exercise this Option, provided that the Company only withholds the amount of Shares necessary to satisfy the minimum statutory withholding amount, (b) having the Company
withhold taxes from the proceeds of the sale of the Shares, either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on your behalf pursuant to this authorization), or (c) any other arrangement approved by the
Company. The Fair Market Value of these Shares, determined as of the effective date of the Option exercise, will be applied as a credit against the withholding taxes. Finally, you 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 as a result of your participation in the Plan or your 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 if you fail to comply with your obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items as described in this Section. 

9. Acknowledgement. The Company and you agree that the Option is granted under and governed by the Notice of Grant, this
Agreement and by the provisions of the Plan (incorporated herein by reference). You: (i) acknowledge receipt of a copy of the Plan and the Plan prospectus, (ii) represent that you have carefully read and are familiar with their provisions,
and (iii) hereby accept the Option subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth herein and those set forth in the Plan and the Notice of Grant. You hereby agree to accept as binding, conclusive and final all decisions or interpretations
of the Committee upon any questions relating to the Plan, the Notice of Grant and the Agreement.  
 10. Consent to Electronic
Delivery of All Plan Documents and Disclosures. By your acceptance of this Option, you consent to the electronic delivery of the Notice of Grant, this Agreement, the Plan, account statements, Plan prospectuses required by the Securities and
Exchange Commission, U.S. financial reports of the Company, and all other documents that the Company is required to deliver to 

  
 3 

 
its security holders (including, without limitation, annual reports and proxy statements) or other communications or information related to the Option. Electronic delivery may include the
delivery of a link to a Company intranet or the internet site of a third party involved in administering the Plan, the delivery of the document via e-mail or such other delivery determined at the Company’s discretion. You acknowledge that you
may receive from the Company a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically at no cost if you contact the Company by telephone, through a postal service or electronic mail at [insert email]. You further acknowledge that you will be provided
with a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically if electronic delivery fails; similarly, you understand that you must provide on request to the Company or any designated third party a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically
if electronic delivery fails. Also, you understand that your consent may be revoked or changed, including any change in the electronic mail address to which documents are delivered (if you have provided an electronic mail address), at any time by
notifying the Company of such revised or revoked consent by telephone, postal service or electronic mail at [insert email]. Finally, you understand that you are not required to consent to electronic delivery. 

11. Compliance with Laws and Regulations. The Company will not permit anyone to exercise this Option if the issuance of shares
at that time would violate any law or regulation, including without limitation all applicable state, federal and foreign laws and regulations and all applicable requirements of any stock exchange or automated quotation system on which the
Company’s Common Stock may be listed or quoted at the time of such issuance or transfer. The Shares issued pursuant to this Agreement shall be endorsed with appropriate legends, if any, determined by the Company. 

12. Governing Law; Severability. If one or more provisions of this Agreement are held to be unenforceable under applicable law,
the parties agree to renegotiate such provision in good faith. In the event that the parties cannot reach a mutually agreeable and enforceable replacement for such provision, then (i) such provision shall be excluded from this Agreement,
(ii) the balance of this Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and (iii) the balance of this Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms. This Agreement and all acts and transactions pursuant
hereto and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law. 

13. No Rights as Employee, Director or Consultant. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect in any manner whatsoever the right or
power of the Company, or a Parent or Subsidiary of the Company, to terminate your Service, for any reason, with or without Cause. 
 14.
Adjustment. In the event of a stock split, a stock dividend or a similar change in Company stock, the number of Shares covered by this Option and the exercise price per Share may be adjusted pursuant to the Plan. 

15. Lock-Up Agreement. In connection with the initial public offering of the Company’s securities and upon request of the
Company or the underwriters managing any underwritten offering of the Company’s securities, you hereby agree not to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any Option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any securities of the Company
however and whenever acquired (other than those included in the registration) without the prior written consent of the Company or such underwriters, as the case may be, for such period of time (not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days) from
the effective date of such registration as may be requested by the Company or such managing underwriters and to execute an agreement reflecting the foregoing as may be requested by the underwriters at the time of the public offering; provided
however that, if during the last seventeen (17) days of the restricted period the Company issues an earnings release or material news or a material event relating to the Company occurs, or prior to the expiration of the restricted period the
Company announces that it will release earnings results during the sixteen (16)-day period beginning on the last day of the restricted period, then, upon the request of the managing underwriter, to the extent required by any FINRA rules, the
restrictions imposed by this Section shall continue to apply until the end of the third trading day following the expiration of the fifteen (15)-day period beginning on the issuance of the earnings release or the occurrence of the material news or
material event. In no event will the restricted period extend beyond two hundred sixteen (216) days after the effective date of the registration statement. 

  
 4 

 16. Award Subject to Company Clawback or Recoupment. The Option shall be subject to
clawback or recoupment pursuant to any compensation clawback or recoupment policy adopted by the Board or required by law during the term of your employment or other Service with the Company that is applicable to executive officers, employees,
directors or other remedies available under such policy and applicable law may require the cancelation of your Option (whether vested or unvested) and the recoupment of any gains realized with respect to your Option. 

This Agreement and the Plan constitute the entire understanding between you and the Company regarding this Option. Any prior agreements,
commitments or negotiations concerning this Option are superseded. This Agreement may be amended only by another written agreement between the parties. 

BY ACCEPTING THIS OPTION, YOU AGREE TO ALL OF THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS DESCRIBED ABOVE AND IN THE PLAN.

by this Option and to deliver to the Company from the sale proceeds an amount sufficient to pay the Option exercise price and any withholding taxes. The balance of the sale proceeds, if any, will be delivered to you. The directions must be given by
signing a special notice of exercise form provided by the Company; or 
 (d) other method authorized by the Company. 

5. Non-Transferability of Option. In general, except as provided below, only you may exercise this Option prior to your death.
You may not transfer or assign this Option, except as provided below. For instance, you may not sell this Option or use it as security for a loan. If you attempt to do any of these things, this Option will immediately become invalid. You may,
however, dispose of this Option in your will or in a beneficiary designation. However, the Committee (as defined in the Plan) may, in its sole discretion, allow you to transfer this Option as a gift to one or more family members. For purposes of
this Agreement, “family member” means a child, stepchild, grandchild, parent, stepparent, grandparent, spouse, former spouse, sibling, niece, nephew, mother-in- law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law or
sister-in-law (including adoptive relationships), any individual sharing your household (other than a tenant or employee), a trust in which one or more of these individuals have more than 50% of the beneficial interest, a foundation in which you or
one or more of these persons control the management of assets, and any entity in which you or one or more of these persons own more than 50% of the voting interest. In addition, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, allow you to transfer this
Option to your spouse or former spouse pursuant to a domestic relations order in settlement of marital property rights. The Committee will allow you to transfer this Option only if both you and the transferee(s) execute the forms prescribed by the
Committee, which include the consent of the transferee(s) to be bound by this Agreement. This Option may not be transferred in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution or court order and may be exercised during the
lifetime of you only by you, your guardian, or legal representative, as permitted in the Plan. The terms of the Plan and this Agreement shall be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs, successors and assigns of you. 

6. Term of Option. This Option shall in any event expire on the expiration date set forth in the Notice of Grant, which date is
10 years after the grant date. 
 7. Tax Consequences. You should consult a tax advisor for tax consequences relating to
this Option in the jurisdiction in which you are subject to tax. YOU SHOULD CONSULT A TAX ADVISER BEFORE EXERCISING THIS OPTION OR DISPOSING OF THE SHARES. You will not be allowed to exercise this Option unless you make arrangements acceptable to
the Company to pay any withholding taxes that may be due as a result of the Option exercise.

 8. Withholding Taxes and Stock Withholding. Regardless of any action the Company or
your actual employer (the “Employer”) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), you
acknowledge that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by you is and remains your responsibility and that the Company and/or the Employer (a) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any
Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Option grant, including the grant, vesting or exercise of the Option, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such exercise and the receipt of any dividends; and (b) do not
commit to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Option to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related Items. 
 Prior to exercise of
the Option, you shall pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all withholding and payment on account obligations of the Company and/or the Employer. In this regard, you authorize the Company
and/or the Employer to withhold all applicable Tax-Related Items legally payable by you from your wages or other cash compensation paid to you by the Company and/or the Employer. With the Company’s consent, these arrangements may also include,
if permissible under local law, (i) withholding Shares that otherwise would be issued to you when you exercise this Option, provided that the Company only withholds the amount of Shares necessary to satisfy the minimum statutory withholding
amount, (ii) having the Company withhold taxes from the proceeds of the sale of the Shares, either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on your behalf pursuant to this authorization), or (iii) any
other arrangement approved by the Company. The Fair Market Value of these Shares, determined as of the effective date of the Option exercise, will be applied as a credit against the withholding taxes. Finally, you 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 as a result of your participation in the Plan or your 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 if you fail to comply with your obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items as described in this Section. 

9. Acknowledgement. The Company and you agree that the Option is granted under and governed by the Notice of Grant, this
Agreement and by the provisions of the Plan (incorporated herein by reference). You: (a) acknowledge receipt of a copy of the Plan and the Plan prospectus, (b) represent that you have carefully read and are familiar with their provisions,
and (c) hereby accept the Option subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth herein and those set forth in the Plan and the Notice of Grant. You hereby agree to accept as binding, conclusive and final all decisions or interpretations
of the Committee upon any questions relating to the Plan, the Notice of Grant and the Agreement. 
 10. Consent to Electronic Delivery
of All Plan Documents and Disclosures. By your acceptance of this Option, you consent to the electronic delivery of the Notice of Grant, this Agreement, the Plan, account statements, Plan prospectuses required by the Securities and Exchange
Commission, U.S. financial reports of the Company, and all other documents that the Company is required to deliver to its security holders (including, without limitation, annual reports and proxy statements) or other communications or information
related to the Option. Electronic delivery may include the delivery of a link to a Company intranet or the internet site of a third party involved in administering the Plan, the delivery of the document via e-mail or such other delivery determined
at the Company’s discretion. You acknowledge that you may receive from the Company a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically at no cost if you contact the Company by telephone, through a postal service or electronic mail at [insert
email]. You further acknowledge that you will be provided with a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically if electronic delivery fails; similarly, you understand that you must provide on request to the Company or any designated third
party a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically if electronic delivery fails. Also, you understand that your consent may be revoked or changed, including any change in the electronic mail address to which documents are delivered (if you
have provided an electronic mail address), at any time by notifying the Company of such revised or revoked consent by telephone, postal service or electronic mail at [insert email]. Finally, you understand that you are not required to consent to
electronic delivery.

 11. Compliance with Laws and Regulations. The Company will not permit anyone to
exercise this Option if the issuance of shares at that time would violate any law or regulation, including without limitation all applicable state, federal and foreign laws and regulations and all applicable requirements of any stock exchange or
automated quotation system on which the Company’s Common Stock may be listed or quoted at the time of such issuance or transfer. The Shares issued pursuant to this Agreement shall be endorsed with appropriate legends, if any, determined by the
Company. 
 12. Governing Law; Severability. If one or more provisions of this Agreement are held to be unenforceable under
applicable law, the parties agree to renegotiate such provision in good faith. In the event that the parties cannot reach a mutually agreeable and enforceable replacement for such provision, then (a) such provision shall be excluded from this
Agreement, (b) the balance of this Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and (c) the balance of this Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms. This Agreement and all acts and transactions
pursuant hereto and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law. 

13. No Rights as Employee, Director or Consultant. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect in any manner whatsoever the right or
power of the Company, or a Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company, to terminate your Service, for any reason, with or without Cause, subject to applicable law. 

14. Adjustment. In the event of a stock split, a stock dividend or a similar change in Company stock, the number of Shares
covered by this Option and the exercise price per Share may be adjusted pursuant to the Plan. 
 15. Lock-Up Agreement. In
connection with the initial public offering of the Company’s securities and upon request of the Company or the underwriters managing any underwritten offering of the Company’s securities, you hereby agree not to sell, make any short sale
of, loan, grant any Option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any securities of the Company however and whenever acquired (other than those included in the registration) without the prior written consent of the Company or such
underwriters, as the case may be, for such period of time (not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days) from the effective date of such registration as may be requested by the Company or such managing underwriters and to execute an agreement
reflecting the foregoing as may be requested by the underwriters at the time of the public offering; provided however that, if during the last seventeen (17) days of the restricted period the Company issues an earnings release or material news
or a material event relating to the Company occurs, or prior to the expiration of the restricted period the Company announces that it will release earnings results during the sixteen (16)-day period beginning on the last day of the restricted
period, then, upon the request of the managing underwriter, to the extent required by any FINRA rules, the restrictions imposed by this Section shall continue to apply until the end of the third trading day following the expiration of the fifteen
(15)-day period beginning on the issuance of the earnings release or the occurrence of the material news or material event. In no event will the restricted period extend beyond two hundred sixteen (216) days after the effective date of the
registration statement. 
 16. Award Subject to Company Clawback or Recoupment. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the
Option shall be subject to clawback or recoupment pursuant to any compensation clawback or recoupment policy adopted by the Board or required by law during the term of your employment or other Service with the Company that is applicable to executive
officers, employees, directors or other remedies available under such policy and applicable law may require the cancelation of your Option (whether vested or unvested) and the recoupment of any gains realized with respect to your Option. 

17. Nature of Grant. In accepting the grant, you acknowledge 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; 

  
 4 

 (b) 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; 

(c) all decisions with respect to future option grants, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company; 

(d) you are voluntarily participating in the Plan; 

(e) the Option and the shares of Common Stock subject to the Option are an extraordinary item that does not constitute compensation of any
kind for services of any kind rendered to the Company or the Employer, and which is outside the scope of your employment contract, if any; 

(f) the Option and the shares of Common Stock subject to the Option are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation; 

(g) the Option and the shares of Common Stock 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, pension or 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; 

(h) the Option and your participation in the Plan will not be interpreted to form an employment contract or relationship with the Company or
any Subsidiary or Affiliate; 
 (i) the future value of the underlying shares of Common Stock is unknown and cannot be predicted with
certainty; 
 (j) in consideration of the grant of the Option, no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from
forfeiture of the Option resulting from termination of your Service with the Company or the Employer (for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of local labor laws) and you irrevocably release the Company and the Employer from any such
claim that may arise; if, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen, you shall be deemed irrevocably to have waive any entitlement to pursue such claim; 

(k) in the event of termination of your Service (whether or not in breach of local labor laws), your right to vest in the Option under the
Plan, if any, will terminate effective as of the date that you are no longer actively providing Services and will not be extended by any notice period mandated under local law (e.g., active service would not include a period of “garden
leave” or similar period pursuant to local law); the Board/Committee shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when you are no longer actively providing Services for purposes of the Option; notwithstanding the foregoing, if your Service
terminates due to your death, the Option will be fully vested as of the date of death; and 
 (l) the Option and the benefits under the
Plan, if any, will not automatically transfer to another company in the case of a merger, take-over or transfer of liability. 
 18.
Data Privacy. (a) You hereby explicitly and unambiguously consent to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of your personal data as described in this Agreement and any other award materials by and
among, as applicable, the Employer, the Company, and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing your participation in the Plan.

and management of the Plan. You understand that the recipients of the Data may be located in the United States or elsewhere, and that the recipients’ country (e.g., the United States) may have different data privacy laws and protections than

may assist the Company (presently or in the future) with implementing, administering and managing the Plan to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the sole purpose of implementing, administering and
managing your participation in the Plan. You understand that Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage your participation in the Plan. You understand that you 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 your local human resources representative. You understand,
however, that refusing or withdrawing your consent may affect your ability to participate in the Plan. For more information on the consequences of your refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, you understand that you may contact your local human

 STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT — CEO FORM 

NIMBLE STORAGE, INC. 2013 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN 

You have been granted an Option by Nimble Storage, Inc. (the “Company”) under the 2013 Equity Incentive
Plan (the “Plan”) to purchase Shares (the “Option”), subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, the Notice of Stock Option Grant (the “Notice of Grant”) and this Stock
Option Agreement (the “Agreement”). 
 1. Grant of Option. You have been granted an Option for the
number of Shares set forth in the Notice of Grant at the exercise price per Share set forth in the Notice of Grant (the “exercise price”). In the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of the Plan and the terms
and conditions of this Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Plan shall prevail. If designated in the Notice of Grant as an Incentive Stock Option (“ISO”), this Option is intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option
under Section 422 of the Code. However, if this Option is intended to be an ISO, to the extent that it exceeds the $100,000 rule of Code Section 422(d) it shall be treated as a Nonqualified Stock Option (“NSO”).

 2. Termination Period. 
 (a)
General Rule. If your Service terminates for any reason except death or Disability, and other than for Cause, then this Option will expire at the close of business at Company headquarters on the date three months after your termination date.
If your Service is terminated for Cause, this Option will expire upon the date of such termination. The Company determines when your Service terminates for all purposes under this Agreement. 

(b) Death; Disability. If you die before your Service terminates, then this Option will expire at the close of business at Company
headquarters on the date 18 months after the date of death. If your Service terminates because of your Disability, then this Option will expire at the close of business at Company headquarters on the date 12 months after your termination date. 

(c) No Notice. You are responsible for keeping track of these exercise periods following your termination of Service for any reason.
The Company will not provide further notice of such periods. In no event shall this Option be exercised later than the Expiration Date set forth in the Notice of Grant. 

3. Exercise of Option. 
 (a)
Right to Exercise. This Option is exercisable during its term in accordance with the Vesting Schedule set forth in the Notice of Grant and the applicable provisions of the Plan and this Agreement. In the event of your death, Disability, or
other cessation of Service, the exercisability of the Option is governed by the applicable provisions of the Plan, the Notice of Grant and this Agreement. This Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share. 

(b) Method of Exercise. This Option is exercisable by delivery of an exercise notice in a form specified by the Company (the
“Exercise Notice”), which shall 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 shall be delivered in person, by mail, via electronic mail or facsimile or by other authorized method to the Secretary of
the Company or other person designated by the Company. The Exercise Notice shall be accompanied by payment of the aggregate exercise price as to all Exercised Shares. This Option shall be deemed to be exercised upon receipt by the Company of a fully
executed Exercise Notice accompanied by the aggregate exercise price and any applicable tax withholding due upon exercise of the Option. 

  
 1 

 (c) Exercise by Another. If another person wants to exercise this Option after it has been
transferred to him or her in compliance with this Agreement, that person must prove to the Company’s satisfaction that he or she is entitled to exercise this Option. That person must also complete the proper Exercise Notice form (as described
above) and pay the exercise price (as described below) and any applicable tax withholding due upon exercise of the Option (as described below). 
 4.
Method of Payment. Payment of the aggregate exercise price shall be by any of the following, or a combination thereof, at your election: 

(a) your personal check, wire transfer, or a cashier’s check; 

(b) certificates for shares of Company stock that you own, along with any forms needed to effect a transfer of those shares to the Company;
the value of the shares, determined as of the effective date of the Option exercise, will be applied to the Option exercise price. Instead of surrendering shares of Company stock, you may attest to the ownership of those shares on a form provided by
the Company and have the same number of shares subtracted from the Option shares issued to you. However, you may not surrender, or attest to the ownership of, shares of Company stock in payment of the exercise price of your Option if your action
would cause the Company to recognize compensation expense (or additional compensation expense) with respect to this Option for financial reporting purposes; 

(c) cashless exercise through irrevocable directions to a securities broker approved by the Company to sell all or part of the Shares covered
by this Option and to deliver to the Company from the sale proceeds an amount sufficient to pay the Option exercise price and any withholding taxes. The balance of the sale proceeds, if any, will be delivered to you. The directions must be given by
signing a special notice of exercise form provided by the Company; or 
 (d) other method authorized by the Company. 

5. Non-Transferability of Option. In general, except as provided below, only you may exercise this Option prior to your death. You may not
transfer or assign this Option, except as provided below. For instance, you may not sell this Option or use it as security for a loan. If you attempt to do any of these things, this Option will immediately become invalid. You may, however, dispose
of this Option in your will or in a beneficiary designation. However, if this Option is designated as a NSO in the Notice of Grant, then the Committee (as defined in the Plan) may, in its sole discretion, allow you to transfer this Option as a gift
to one or more family members. For purposes of this Agreement, “family member” means a child, stepchild, grandchild, parent, stepparent, grandparent, spouse, former spouse, sibling, niece, nephew, mother-in- law, father-in-law, son-in-law,
daughter-in-law, brother-in-law or sister-in-law (including adoptive relationships), any individual sharing your household (other than a tenant or employee), a trust in which one or more of these individuals have more than 50% of the beneficial
interest, a foundation in which you or one or more of these persons control the management of assets, and any entity in which you or one or more of these persons own more than 50% of the voting interest. In addition, if this Option is designated as
a NSO in the Notice of Grant, then the Committee may, in its sole discretion, allow you to transfer this Option to your spouse or former spouse pursuant to a domestic relations order in settlement of marital property rights. The Committee will allow
you to transfer this Option only if both you and the transferee(s) execute the forms prescribed by the Committee, which include the consent of the transferee(s) to be bound by this Agreement. This Option may not be transferred in any manner other
than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution or court order and may be exercised during the lifetime of you only by you, your guardian, or legal representative, as permitted in the Plan. The terms of the Plan and this Agreement shall be
binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs, successors and assigns of you. 
 6. Term of Option. This Option shall in any event expire
on the expiration date set forth in the Notice of Grant, which date is 10 years after the grant date (five years after the grant date if this Option is designated as an ISO in the Notice of Grant and Section 5.3 of the Plan applies). 

  
 2 

 7. Tax Consequences. You should consult a tax advisor for tax consequences relating to this Option
in the jurisdiction in which you are subject to tax. YOU SHOULD CONSULT A TAX ADVISER BEFORE EXERCISING THIS OPTION OR DISPOSING OF THE SHARES. 

(a) Exercising the Option. You will not be allowed to exercise this Option unless you make arrangements acceptable to the Company to
pay any withholding taxes that may be due as a result of the Option exercise. 
 (b) Notice of Disqualifying Disposition of ISO
Shares. If you sell or otherwise dispose of any of the Shares acquired pursuant to an ISO on or before the later of (i) two years after the grant date, or (ii) one year after the exercise date, you shall immediately notify the Company
in writing of such disposition. You agree that he or she may be subject to income tax withholding by the Company on the compensation income recognized from such early disposition of ISO Shares by payment in cash or out of the current compensation
paid to you. 
 8. Withholding Taxes and Stock Withholding. Regardless of any action the Company or your actual employer (the
“Employer”) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), you acknowledge that the ultimate
liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by you is and remains your responsibility and 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 the grant, vesting or exercise of the Option, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such exercise and the receipt of any dividends; and (2) do not commit to structure the terms of the grant
or any aspect of the Option to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related Items. 
 Prior to exercise of the Option, you shall pay or make adequate
arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all withholding and payment on account obligations of the Company and/or the Employer. In this regard, you authorize the Company and/or the Employer to withhold all applicable
Tax-Related Items legally payable by you from your wages or other cash compensation paid to you by the Company and/or the Employer. With the Company’s consent, these arrangements may also include, if permissible under local law,
(a) withholding Shares that otherwise would be issued to you when you exercise this Option, provided that the Company only withholds the amount of Shares necessary to satisfy the minimum statutory withholding amount, (b) having the Company
withhold taxes from the proceeds of the sale of the Shares, either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on your behalf pursuant to this authorization), or (c) any other arrangement approved by the
Company. The Fair Market Value of these Shares, determined as of the effective date of the Option exercise, will be applied as a credit against the withholding taxes. Finally, you 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 as a result of your participation in the Plan or your 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 if you fail to comply with your obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items as described in this Section.

such revised or revoked consent by telephone, postal service or electronic mail. Finally, you understand that you are not required to consent to electronic delivery. 

11. Compliance with Laws and Regulations. The Company will not permit anyone to exercise this Option if the issuance of shares at that time
would violate any law or regulation, including without limitation all applicable state, federal and foreign laws and regulations and all applicable requirements of any stock exchange or automated quotation system on which the Company’s Common
Stock may be listed or quoted at the time of such issuance or transfer. The Shares issued pursuant to this Agreement shall be endorsed with appropriate legends, if any, determined by the Company. 

12. Governing Law; Severability. If one or more provisions of this Agreement are held to be unenforceable under applicable law, the parties
agree to renegotiate such provision in good faith. In the event that the parties cannot reach a mutually agreeable and enforceable replacement for such provision, then (i) such provision shall be excluded from this Agreement, (ii) the
balance of this Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and (iii) the balance of this Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms. This Agreement and all acts and transactions pursuant hereto and the
rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law. 

13. No Rights as Employee, Director or Consultant. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect in any manner whatsoever the right or power of the
Company, or a Parent or Subsidiary of the Company, to terminate your Service, for any reason, with or without Cause. 
 14. Adjustment. In the
event of a stock split, a stock dividend or a similar change in Company stock, the number of Shares covered by this Option and the exercise price per Share may be adjusted pursuant to the Plan. 

15. Lock-Up Agreement. In connection with the initial public offering of the Company’s securities and upon request of the Company or the
underwriters managing any underwritten offering of the Company’s securities, you hereby agree not to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any Option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any securities of the Company however and
whenever acquired (other than those included in the registration) without the prior written consent of the Company or such underwriters, as the case may be, for such period of time (not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days) from the
effective date of such registration as may be requested by the Company or such managing underwriters and to execute an agreement reflecting the foregoing as may be requested by the underwriters at the time of the public offering; provided however
that, if during the last seventeen (17) days of the restricted period the Company issues an earnings release or material news or a material event relating to the Company occurs, or prior to the expiration of the restricted period the Company
announces that it will release earnings results during the sixteen (16)-day period beginning on the last day of the restricted period, then, upon the request of the managing underwriter, to the extent required by any FINRA rules, the restrictions
imposed by this Section shall continue to apply until the end of the third trading day following the expiration of the fifteen (15)-day period beginning on the issuance of the earnings release or the occurrence of the material news or material
event. In no event will the restricted period extend beyond two hundred sixteen (216) days after the effective date of the registration statement.

 16. Award Subject to Company Clawback or Recoupment. The Option shall be subject to clawback or
recoupment pursuant to any compensation clawback or recoupment policy adopted by the Board or required by law during the term of your employment or other Service with the Company that is applicable to executive officers, employees, directors or
other remedies available under such policy and applicable law may require the cancelation of your Option (whether vested or unvested) and the recoupment of any gains realized with respect to your Option. 

This Agreement and the Plan constitute the entire understanding between you and the Company regarding this Option. Any prior agreements,
commitments or negotiations concerning this Option are superseded. This Agreement may be amended only by another written agreement between the parties.

 RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT 

NIMBLE STORAGE, INC. 

2013 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN 
 You have been
granted Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) subject to the terms, restrictions and conditions of the Plan, the Notice of Restricted Stock Unit Award (the “Notice”) and this RSU Agreement. 

1. Settlement. Settlement of RSUs shall be made within 30 days following the applicable date of vesting under the vesting schedule set
forth in the Notice. Settlement of RSUs shall be in Shares. Settlement means the delivery of the Shares vested under an RSU. No fractional RSUs or rights for fractional Shares shall be created pursuant to this RSU Agreement. 

2. No Stockholder Rights. Unless and until such time as Shares are issued in settlement of vested RSUs, you shall have no ownership of the
Shares allocated to the RSUs and shall have no right dividends or to vote such Shares. 
 3. Dividend Equivalents. Dividends, if any (whether
in cash or Shares), shall not be credited to you. 
 4. No Transfer. RSUs may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated, or
otherwise disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution or court order or unless otherwise permitted by the Committee on a case-by-case basis. 

5. Termination. If your Service terminates for any reason, all unvested RSUs shall be forfeited to the Company forthwith, and all rights you
have to such RSUs shall immediately terminate. In case of any dispute as to whether your termination of Service has occurred, the Committee shall have sole discretion to determine whether such termination has occurred and the effective date of such
termination. 
 6. Tax Consequences. You acknowledge that there will be tax consequences upon settlement of the RSUs or disposition of the
Shares, if any, received in connection therewith, and you should consult a tax adviser regarding your tax obligations prior to such settlement or disposition in the jurisdiction where you are subject to tax. 

7. Withholding Taxes and Stock Withholding. Regardless of any action the Company or your actual employer (the
“Employer”) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), you acknowledge that the ultimate
liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by you is and remains your responsibility and 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 award, including the settlement of the RSUs, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such settlement and the receipt of any dividends; and (2) do not commit to structure the terms of the award or any aspect of the
RSUs to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related Items. You acknowledge that if you are subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction, the Company and/or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related
Items in more than one jurisdiction. 
 Prior to the settlement of your RSUs, you shall pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or
the Employer to satisfy all withholding and payment on account obligations of the Company and/or the Employer. In this regard, you authorize the Company and/or the Employer to withhold all applicable Tax-Related Items legally payable by you from
your wages or other cash compensation paid to you by the Company and/or the Employer. With the Company’s consent, these arrangements may also include, if permissible under local law, (a) withholding Shares that otherwise would be issued to
you when your RSUs are settled, provided that the Company only withholds the amount of Shares necessary to satisfy the minimum statutory withholding amount, (b) having the Company withhold taxes from the proceeds of the sale of the Shares,
either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on your behalf and you hereby authorize 

  
 1 

 
such sales by this authorization), (c) your payment of a cash amount, or (d) any other arrangement approved by the Company; all under such rules as may be established by the Committee
and in compliance with the Company’s Insider Trading Policy and 10b5-1 Trading Plan Policy, if applicable; provided however, that if you are a Section 16 officer of the Company under the Exchange Act, then the Committee (as constituted in
accordance with Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act) shall establish the method of withholding from alternatives (a)-(d) above, and the Committee shall establish the method prior to the Tax-Related Items withholding event. The Fair Market Value
of these Shares, determined as of the effective date when taxes otherwise would have been withheld in cash, will be applied as a credit against the withholding taxes. You 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 as a result of your participation in the Plan or your purchase of Shares that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. Finally, you acknowledge that the Company has no obligation
to deliver Shares to you until you have satisfied the obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items as described in this Section. 
 8.
Acknowledgement. The Company and you agree that the RSUs are granted under and governed by the Notice, this RSU Agreement and the provisions of the Plan. You: (i) acknowledge receipt of a copy of the Plan prospectus,
(ii) represent that you have carefully read and are familiar with their provisions, and (iii) hereby accept the RSUs subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth herein and those set forth in the Notice. 

9. Entire Agreement; Enforcement of Rights. This RSU Agreement, the Plan and the Notice constitute the entire agreement and understanding of the
parties relating to the subject matter herein and supersede all prior discussions between them. Any prior agreements, commitments or negotiations concerning the purchase of the Shares hereunder are superseded. No modification of or amendment to this
RSU Agreement, nor any waiver of any rights under this RSU Agreement, shall be effective unless in writing and signed by the parties to this RSU Agreement. The failure by either party to enforce any rights under this RSU Agreement shall not be
construed as a waiver of any rights of such party. 
 10. Compliance with Laws and Regulations. The issuance of Shares
will be subject to and conditioned upon compliance by the Company and you with all applicable state, federal and foreign laws and regulations and with all applicable requirements of any stock exchange or automated quotation system on which the
Company’s Common Stock may be listed or quoted at the time of such issuance or transfer. The Shares issued pursuant to this RSU Agreement shall be endorsed with appropriate legends, if any, determined by the Company. 

11. Governing Law; Severability. If one or more provisions of this RSU Agreement are held to be unenforceable under applicable law,
the parties agree to renegotiate such provision in good faith. In the event that the parties cannot reach a mutually agreeable and enforceable replacement for such provision, then (i) such provision shall be excluded from this RSU Agreement,
(ii) the balance of this RSU Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and (iii) the balance of this RSU Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms. This RSU Agreement and all acts and
transactions pursuant hereto and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law. For
purposes of litigating any dispute that may arise directly or indirectly from the Plan, the Notice and this RSU Agreement, the parties hereby submit and consent to litigation in the exclusive jurisdiction of the State of California and agree that
any such litigation shall be conducted only in the courts of California or the federal courts of the United States for the Northern District of California and no other courts. 

11. No Rights as Employee, Director or Consultant. Nothing in this RSU Agreement shall affect in any manner whatsoever the right or power of the
Company, or a Parent or Subsidiary of the Company, to terminate your Service, for any reason, with or without Cause. 
 12. Consent to Electronic
Delivery of All Plan Documents and Disclosures. By acceptance of this RSU, you consent to the electronic delivery of the Notice, this RSU Agreement, the Plan, account statements, Plan prospectuses required by the Securities and Exchange
Commission, U.S. financial reports of the Company, and 

  
 2 

 
all other documents that the Company is required to deliver to its security holders (including, without limitation, annual reports and proxy statements) or other communications or information
related to the RSU. Electronic delivery may include the delivery of a link to a Company intranet or the internet site of a third party involved in administering the Plan, the delivery of the document via e-mail or such other delivery determined at
the Company’s discretion. You acknowledge that you may receive from the Company a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically at no cost if you contact the Company by telephone, through a postal service or electronic mail. You further
acknowledge that you will be provided with a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically if electronic delivery fails; similarly, you understand that you must provide on request to the Company or any designated third party a paper copy of
any documents delivered electronically if electronic delivery fails. Also, you understand that your consent may be revoked or changed, including any change in the electronic mail address to which documents are delivered (if you have provided an
electronic mail address), at any time by notifying the Company of such revised or revoked consent by telephone, postal service or electronic mail. Finally, you understand that you are not required to consent to electronic delivery. 

13. Code Section 409A. For purposes of this RSU Agreement, a termination of employment will be determined consistent with the rules
relating to a “separation from service” as defined in Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code and the regulations thereunder (“Section 409A”). Notwithstanding anything else provided herein, to the extent any
payments provided under this RSU Agreement in connection with your termination of employment constitute deferred compensation subject to Section 409A, and you are deemed at the time of such termination of employment to be a “specified
employee” under Section 409A, then such payment shall not be made or commence until the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six-month period measured from your separation from service from the Company or (ii) the date of your
death following such a separation from service; provided, however, that such deferral shall only be effected to the extent required to avoid adverse tax treatment to you including, without limitation, the additional tax for which you would otherwise
be liable under Section 409A(a)(1)(B) in the absence of such a deferral. To the extent any payment under this RSU Agreement may be classified as a “short-term deferral” within the meaning of Section 409A, such payment shall be
deemed a short-term deferral, even if it may also qualify for an exemption from Section 409A under another provision of Section 409A. Payments pursuant to this section are intended to constitute separate payments for purposes of
Section 1.409A-2(b)(2) of the Treasury Regulations. 
 14. Award Subject to Company Clawback or Recoupment. The RSU shall be subject to
clawback or recoupment pursuant to any compensation clawback or recoupment policy adopted by the Board or required by law during the term of your employment or other Service with the Company that is applicable to executive officers, Employees,
Directors or other service providers of the Company, and in addition to any other remedies available under such policy and applicable law may require the cancellation of your RSU (whether vested or unvested) and the recoupment of any gains realized
with respect to your RSU. 
 BY ACCEPTING THIS RSU, YOU AGREE TO ALL OF THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS DESCRIBED ABOVE AND IN THE PLAN.

any documents delivered electronically if electronic delivery fails. Also, you understand that your consent may be revoked or changed, including any change in the electronic mail address to which documents are delivered (if you have provided an
electronic mail address), at any time by notifying the Company of such revised or revoked consent by telephone, postal service or electronic mail. Finally, you understand that you are not required to consent to electronic delivery. 

14. Code Section 409A. To the extent applicable, for purposes of this RSU Agreement, a termination of employment will be determined
consistent with the rules relating to a “separation from service” as defined in Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code and the regulations thereunder (“Section 409A”). Notwithstanding anything else provided herein,
to the extent any payments provided under this Agreement in connection with your termination of employment constitute deferred compensation subject to Section 409A, and you are deemed at the time of such termination of employment to be a
“specified employee” under Section 409A, then such payment shall not be made or commence until the earlier of (a) the expiration of the six-month period measured from your separation from service from the Company or (b) the
date of your death following such a separation from service; provided, however, that such deferral shall only be effected to the extent required to avoid adverse tax treatment to you including, without limitation, the additional tax for which you
would otherwise be liable under Section 409A(a)(1)(B) in the absence of such a deferral. To the extent any payment under this RSU Agreement may be classified as a “short-term deferral” within the meaning of Section 409A, such
payment shall be deemed a short-term deferral, even if it may also qualify for an exemption from Section 409A under another provision of Section 409A. Payments pursuant to this section are intended to constitute separate payments for
purposes of Section 1.409A-2(b)(2) of the Treasury Regulations. 
 15. Award Subject to Company Clawback or Recoupment. To the extent
permitted by applicable law, the RSUs shall be subject to clawback or recoupment pursuant to any compensation clawback or recoupment policy adopted by the Board or required by law during the term of your employment or other Service with the Company
that is applicable to executive officers, Employees, Directors or other service providers of the Company, and in addition to any other remedies available under such policy and applicable law may require the cancellation of your RSUs (whether vested
or unvested) and the recoupment of any gains realized with respect to your RSUs. 
 16. Nature of Grant. In accepting the grant, you
acknowledge 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 RSUs grants, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company; 

(d) you are voluntarily participating in the Plan; 

  
 3 

 (e) the RSUs and the shares of Common Stock subject to the RSUs are an extraordinary item that
does not constitute compensation of any kind for services of any kind rendered to the Company or the Employer, and which is outside the scope of your employment contract, if any; 

(f) the RSUs and the shares of Common Stock subject to the RSUs are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation; 

(g) the RSUs and the shares of Common Stock 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 or 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; 

(h) the RSUs and your participation in the Plan will not be interpreted to form an employment contract or relationship with the Company or any
Subsidiary or Affiliate; 
 (i) the future value of the underlying shares of Common Stock is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty;

 (j) in consideration of the grant of the RSUs, no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from forfeiture of the RSUs
resulting from termination of your Service with the Company or the Employer (for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of local labor laws) and you irrevocably release the Company and the Employer from any such claim that may arise; if,
notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen, you shall be deemed irrevocably to have waive any entitlement to pursue such claim; 

(k) in the event of termination of your Service (whether or not in breach of local labor laws), your right to vest in the RSUs under the Plan,
if any, will terminate effective as of the date that you are no longer actively providing Services and will not be extended by any notice period mandated under local law (e.g., active service would not include a period of “garden
leave” or similar period pursuant to local law); the Board/Committee shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when you are no longer actively providing Services for purposes of the RSUs; notwithstanding the foregoing, if your Service
terminates due to your death, the RSUs will be fully vested as of the date of death; and 
 (l) the RSUs and the benefits under the Plan, if
any, will not automatically transfer to another company in the case of a merger, take-over or transfer of liability. 
 17. Data Privacy.
(a) You hereby explicitly and unambiguously consent to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of your personal data as described in this RSU Agreement and any other award materials by and among, as applicable, the
Employer, the Company, and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing your participation in the Plan. 

(b) You understand that the Company and the Employer may hold certain personal information about you, including but not limited to, your
name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social 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 of Common Stock granted, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in your favor, for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Plan (“Data”). 

(c) You understand that Data will be transferred to any third parties assisting the Company with the implementation, administration and
management of the Plan. You understand that the recipients of the Data may be located in the United States or elsewhere, and that the recipients’ country (e.g., the United States) may have different data privacy laws and protections than your
country. You understand that you

may request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Data by contacting your local human resources representative. You authorize the Company and any other
possible recipients which may assist the Company (presently or in the future) with implementing, administering and managing the Plan to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the sole purpose of
implementing, administering and managing your participation in the Plan. You understand that Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage your participation in the Plan. You understand that you 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 your local human resources
representative. You understand, however, that refusing or withdrawing your consent may affect your ability to participate in the Plan. For more information on the consequences of your refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, you understand that
you may contact your local human resources representative. 
 18. Non-U.S. Addendum. Notwithstanding any provisions in this RSU
Agreement, the RSUs shall be subject to the special terms and conditions set forth in any addendum to this RSU Agreement (the “Non-U.S. Addendum”) for your country. Moreover, if you relocate to one of the countries included
in the Non-U.S. Addendum, the special terms and conditions for such country will apply to you, 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. The Non-U.S. Addendum constitutes part of this RSU Agreement.

TO ALL OF THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS DESCRIBED ABOVE AND IN THE PLAN.

 RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT — CEO FORM 

NIMBLE STORAGE, INC. 

2013 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN 
 You have been
granted Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) subject to the terms, restrictions and conditions of the Plan, the Notice of Restricted Stock Unit Award (the “Notice”) and this RSU Agreement. 

1. Settlement. Settlement of RSUs shall be made within 30 days following the applicable date of vesting under the vesting schedule set
forth in the Notice. Settlement of RSUs shall be in Shares. Settlement means the delivery of the Shares vested under an RSU. No fractional RSUs or rights for fractional Shares shall be created pursuant to this RSU Agreement. 

2. No Stockholder Rights. Unless and until such time as Shares are issued in settlement of vested RSUs, you shall have no ownership of the
Shares allocated to the RSUs and shall have no right dividends or to vote such Shares. 
 3. Dividend Equivalents. Dividends, if any (whether
in cash or Shares), shall not be credited to you. 
 4. No Transfer. RSUs may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated, or
otherwise disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution or court order or unless otherwise permitted by the Committee on a case-by-case basis. 

5. Termination. If your Service terminates for any reason, all unvested RSUs shall be forfeited to the Company forthwith, and all rights you
have to such RSUs shall immediately terminate. In case of any dispute as to whether your termination of Service has occurred, the Committee shall have sole discretion to determine whether such termination has occurred and the effective date of such
termination. 
 6. Tax Consequences. You acknowledge that there will be tax consequences upon settlement of the RSUs or disposition of the
Shares, if any, received in connection therewith, and you should consult a tax adviser regarding your tax obligations prior to such settlement or disposition in the jurisdiction where you are subject to tax. 

7. Withholding Taxes and Stock Withholding. Regardless of any action the Company or your actual employer (the
“Employer”) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), you acknowledge that the ultimate
liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by you is and remains your responsibility and 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 award, including the settlement of the RSUs, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such settlement and the receipt of any dividends; and (2) do not commit to structure the terms of the award or any aspect of the
RSUs to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related Items. You acknowledge that if you are subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction, the Company and/or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related
Items in more than one jurisdiction. 
 Prior to the settlement of your RSUs, you shall pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or
the Employer to satisfy all withholding and payment on account obligations of the Company and/or the Employer. In this regard, you authorize the Company and/or the Employer to withhold all applicable Tax-Related Items legally payable by you from
your wages or other cash compensation paid to you by the Company and/or the Employer. With the Company’s consent, these arrangements may also include, if permissible under local law, (a) withholding Shares that otherwise would be issued to
you when your RSUs are settled, provided that the Company only withholds the amount of Shares necessary to satisfy the minimum statutory withholding amount, (b) having the Company withhold taxes from the proceeds of the sale of the Shares,
either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on your behalf and you hereby authorize 

  
 1 

 
such sales by this authorization), (c) your payment of a cash amount, or (d) any other arrangement approved by the Company; all under such rules as may be established by the Committee
and in compliance with the Company’s Insider Trading Policy and 10b5-1 Trading Plan Policy, if applicable; provided however, that if you are a Section 16 officer of the Company under the Exchange Act, then the Committee (as constituted in
accordance with Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act) shall establish the method of withholding from alternatives (a)-(d) above, and the Committee shall establish the method prior to the Tax-Related Items withholding event. The Fair Market Value
of these Shares, determined as of the effective date when taxes otherwise would have been withheld in cash, will be applied as a credit against the withholding taxes. You 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 as a result of your participation in the Plan or your purchase of Shares that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. Finally, you acknowledge that the Company has no obligation
to deliver Shares to you until you have satisfied the obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items as described in this Section. 
 8.
Acknowledgement. The Company and you agree that the RSUs are granted under and governed by the Notice, this RSU Agreement and the provisions of the Plan. You: (i) acknowledge receipt of a copy of the Plan prospectus,
(ii) represent that you have carefully read and are familiar with their provisions, and (iii) hereby accept the RSUs subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth herein and those set forth in the Notice. 

9. Entire Agreement; Enforcement of Rights. This RSU Agreement, the Plan and the Notice constitute the entire agreement and understanding of the
parties relating to the subject matter herein and supersede all prior discussions between them. Any prior agreements, commitments or negotiations concerning the purchase of the Shares hereunder are superseded. No modification of or amendment to this
RSU Agreement, nor any waiver of any rights under this RSU Agreement, shall be effective unless in writing and signed by the parties to this RSU Agreement. The failure by either party to enforce any rights under this RSU Agreement shall not be
construed as a waiver of any rights of such party. 
 10. Compliance with Laws and Regulations. The issuance of Shares
will be subject to and conditioned upon compliance by the Company and you with all applicable state, federal and foreign laws and regulations and with all applicable requirements of any stock exchange or automated quotation system on which the
Company’s Common Stock may be listed or quoted at the time of such issuance or transfer. The Shares issued pursuant to this RSU Agreement shall be endorsed with appropriate legends, if any, determined by the Company. 

11. Governing Law; Severability. If one or more provisions of this RSU Agreement are held to be unenforceable under applicable law,
the parties agree to renegotiate such provision in good faith. In the event that the parties cannot reach a mutually agreeable and enforceable replacement for such provision, then (i) such provision shall be excluded from this RSU Agreement,
(ii) the balance of this RSU Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and (iii) the balance of this RSU Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms. This RSU Agreement and all acts and
transactions pursuant hereto and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law. For
purposes of litigating any dispute that may arise directly or indirectly from the Plan, the Notice and this RSU Agreement, the parties hereby submit and consent to litigation in the exclusive jurisdiction of the State of California and agree that
any such litigation shall be conducted only in the courts of California or the federal courts of the United States for the Northern District of California and no other courts. 

11. No Rights as Employee, Director or Consultant. Nothing in this RSU Agreement shall affect in any manner whatsoever the right or power of the
Company, or a Parent or Subsidiary of the Company, to terminate your Service, for any reason, with or without Cause. 
 12. Consent to Electronic
Delivery of All Plan Documents and Disclosures. By acceptance of this RSU, you consent to the electronic delivery of the Notice, this RSU Agreement, the Plan, account statements, Plan prospectuses required by the Securities and Exchange
Commission, U.S. financial reports of the Company, and 

  
 2 

 
all other documents that the Company is required to deliver to its security holders (including, without limitation, annual reports and proxy statements) or other communications or information
related to the RSU. Electronic delivery may include the delivery of a link to a Company intranet or the internet site of a third party involved in administering the Plan, the delivery of the document via e-mail or such other delivery determined at
the Company’s discretion. You acknowledge that you may receive from the Company a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically at no cost if you contact the Company by telephone, through a postal service or electronic mail. You further
acknowledge that you will be provided with a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically if electronic delivery fails; similarly, you understand that you must provide on request to the Company or any designated third party a paper copy of
any documents delivered electronically if electronic delivery fails. Also, you understand that your consent may be revoked or changed, including any change in the electronic mail address to which documents are delivered (if you have provided an
electronic mail address), at any time by notifying the Company of such revised or revoked consent by telephone, postal service or electronic mail. Finally, you understand that you are not required to consent to electronic delivery. 

13. Code Section 409A. For purposes of this RSU Agreement, a termination of employment will be determined consistent with the rules
relating to a “separation from service” as defined in Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code and the regulations thereunder (“Section 409A”). Notwithstanding anything else provided herein, to the extent any
payments provided under this RSU Agreement in connection with your termination of employment constitute deferred compensation subject to Section 409A, and you are deemed at the time of such termination of employment to be a “specified
employee” under Section 409A, then such payment shall not be made or commence until the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six-month period measured from your separation from service from the Company or (ii) the date of your
death following such a separation from service; provided, however, that such deferral shall only be effected to the extent required to avoid adverse tax treatment to you including, without limitation, the additional tax for which you would otherwise
be liable under Section 409A(a)(1)(B) in the absence of such a deferral. To the extent any payment under this RSU Agreement may be classified as a “short-term deferral” within the meaning of Section 409A, such payment shall be
deemed a short-term deferral, even if it may also qualify for an exemption from Section 409A under another provision of Section 409A. Payments pursuant to this section are intended to constitute separate payments for purposes of
Section 1.409A-2(b)(2) of the Treasury Regulations. 
 14. Award Subject to Company Clawback or Recoupment. The RSU shall be subject to
clawback or recoupment pursuant to any compensation clawback or recoupment policy adopted by the Board or required by law during the term of your employment or other Service with the Company that is applicable to executive officers, Employees,
Directors or other service providers of the Company, and in addition to any other remedies available under such policy and applicable law may require the cancellation of your RSU (whether vested or unvested) and the recoupment of any gains realized
with respect to your RSU. 
 BY ACCEPTING THIS RSU, YOU AGREE TO ALL OF THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS DESCRIBED ABOVE AND IN THE PLAN.

 UK UNAPPROVED SUB-PLAN 

under the 
 NIMBLE
STORAGE, INC. 
 2013 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN 

This Sub-Plan, adopted under the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan of Nimble Storage, Inc. (the “Plan”) by the Compensation
Committee of the Board pursuant to section 4.5 of the Plan, is effective as of                      , 2013. 

 

	1.	Purpose. The primary purpose of this Sub-Plan is to amend those provisions of the Plan that are required to be amended in order for grants under the Plan, and communications concerning those grants, to be exempt
from the provisions of the United Kingdom Financial Services and Markets Act 2000. (For the purposes of this Sub-Plan, the term “awards” shall mean Awards that are granted under this Sub-Plan.) 

 

	2.	Restricted Availability of Awards. This Sub-Plan shall be used solely to grant awards to employees of the Company or any member of the same group as the Company resident and providing services in the United
Kingdom. (The term “group” in relation to the Company shall bear the meaning given to such term in section 421 of the United Kingdom Financial Services and Markets Act 2000.) 

 

	3.	Restricted Delivery of Awards. Payments of benefits under this Sub-Plan shall be made only in Common Stock. For the avoidance of doubt, and without limitation, no cash settlement of awards (including dividends or
dividend equivalents in cash) shall be permissible. 

  

	4.	Withholding of Taxes. All awards will be subject to tax withholding as described in section 13 of the Plan but, for the purposes of this Sub-Plan, references to “tax” shall be read and construed as
including, without limitation, United Kingdom income tax and primary class 1 (employee’s) national insurance contributions that the Participant’s employer is liable to account for and, if so agreed between the Company and the Participant,
secondary class 1 (employer’s) national insurance contributions that the Participant’s employer is liable to account for. 

  

	5.	Conditions of Delivery or Vesting of Shares. It is a further condition of delivery of any Shares pursuant to the exercise of an Option or the vesting of a Restricted Stock Award or Restricted Stock Unit that the
Participant will, if required to do so by the Company, enter into a joint election under section 431(1) of the Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003 of the United Kingdom (“ITEPA”) in the case of an Option at the time of exercise, or
section 430(1) of ITEPA in the case of a Restricted Stock Award or Restricted Stock Unit at the time of vesting, the effect of which is that the shares of Common Stock will be treated as if they were not restricted securities and that sections 425
to 430 of ITEPA will not apply to those shares. 

  

	6.	Restricted Transfer of Rights. The persons to whom awards, or interests therein, under this Sub-Plan may be transferred, whether by will or the laws of descent and distribution under section 14 of the Plan or
otherwise, shall be limited to a Participant’s children and step-children under the age of eighteen, spouses and surviving spouses and civil partners (within the meaning of the United Kingdom Civil Partnerships Act 2004) and surviving partners.

	7.	Incorporation of Plan. The provisions of the Plan shall apply to all awards and shall accordingly be deemed to be incorporated herein, save as varied by the terms of this Sub-Plan.

 4. Exercise of SAR.

 (a) Right to Exercise. This SAR is exercisable during its term in accordance with the Vesting Schedule set forth in the Notice
and the applicable provisions of the Plan and this Agreement. In the event of your death, Disability, termination for Cause or other termination, the exercisability of the SAR is governed by the applicable provisions of the Plan, the Notice and this
Agreement. This SAR may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share. 
 (b) Method of Exercise. This SAR is exercisable by delivery of
an exercise notice in a form specified by the Company (the “Exercise Notice”), which shall state the election to exercise the SAR, the number of Shares subject to the SAR to be exercised, and such other representations and
agreements as may be required by the Company pursuant to the provisions of the Plan. The Exercise Notice shall be delivered in person, by mail, via electronic mail or facsimile or by other authorized method to the Secretary of the Company or other
person designated by the Company. This SAR shall be deemed to be exercised upon receipt by the Company of such fully executed Exercise Notice and any applicable tax withholding due upon exercise of the SAR. 

(c) No Shares shall be issued pursuant to the exercise of this SAR unless such issuance and exercise complies with all relevant provisions of
law and the requirements of any stock exchange or quotation service upon which the Shares are then listed. Assuming such compliance, for income tax purposes the Exercised Shares shall be considered transferred to you on the date the SAR is exercised
with respect to such Exercised Shares. 

 5. Non-Transferability of SAR. This SAR may not be transferred in any manner other
than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution or court order and may be exercised during your lifetime only by you unless otherwise permitted by the Committee on a case-by-case basis. The terms of the Plan and this Agreement shall be
binding upon your executors, administrators, heirs, successors and assign. 
 6. Term of SAR. This SAR shall in any event

 8. Withholding Taxes and Stock Withholding.
Regardless of any action the Company or your actual employer (the “Employer”) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related
Items”), you acknowledge that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by you is and remains your responsibility and 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 SAR, including the grant, vesting or exercise of the SAR, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such exercise and the receipt of any dividends; and (2) do not
commit to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the SAR to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related Items. 
 Prior to exercise of the
SAR, you shall pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all withholding and payment on account obligations of the Company and/or the Employer. In this regard, you authorize the Company and/or the
Employer to withhold all applicable Tax-Related Items legally payable by you from your wages or other cash compensation paid to you by the Company and/or the Employer. With the Company’s consent, these arrangements may also include, if
permissible under local law, (a) withholding Shares that otherwise would be issued to you when you exercise this SAR, provided that the Company only withholds the amount of Shares necessary to satisfy the minimum statutory withholding amount,
(b) having the Company withhold taxes from the proceeds of the sale of the Shares, either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on your behalf pursuant to this authorization), or (c) any other
arrangement approved by the Company. The Fair Market Value of these Shares, determined as of the effective date of the SAR exercise, will be applied as a credit against the withholding taxes. Finally, you 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 as a result of your participation in the Plan or your 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 if you fail to comply with your obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items as described in this section. 

9. Acknowledgement. The Company and you agree that the SAR is granted under and governed by the Notice, this Agreement and by
the provisions of the Plan (incorporated herein by reference). You: (i) acknowledge receipt of a copy of the Plan and the Plan prospectus, (ii) represent that you have carefully read and is familiar with their provisions, and

understanding of the parties relating to the subject matter herein and supersede all prior discussions between them. Any prior agreements, commitments or negotiations concerning the purchase of the Shares hereunder are superseded. No modification of
or amendment to this Agreement, nor 

  
 2 

 
any waiver of any rights under this Agreement, shall be effective unless in writing and signed by the parties to this Agreement. The failure by either party to enforce any rights under this
Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of any rights of such party. 
 11. Compliance with Laws and Regulations. The
issuance of Shares will be subject to and conditioned upon compliance by the Company and you with all applicable state and federal laws and regulations and with all applicable requirements of any stock exchange or automated quotation system on which
the Company’s Common Stock may be listed or quoted at the time of such issuance or transfer. 
 12. Governing Law;
Severability. If one or more provisions of this Agreement are held to be unenforceable under applicable law, the parties agree to renegotiate such provision in good faith. In the event that the parties cannot reach a mutually agreeable and
enforceable replacement for such provision, then (i) such provision shall be excluded from this Agreement, (ii) the balance of this Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and (iii) the balance of this
Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms. This Agreement and all acts and transactions pursuant hereto and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws
of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law. For purposes of litigating any dispute that may arise directly or indirectly from the Plan, the Notice and this Agreement, the parties hereby submit and consent to
litigation in the exclusive jurisdiction of the State of California and agree that any such litigation shall be conducted only in the courts of California or the federal courts of the United States for the Northern District of California and no
other courts.

whatsoever the right or power of the Company, or a Parent or Subsidiary of the Company, to terminate Participant’s Service, for any reason, with or without cause.

Company, and in addition to any other remedies available under such policy and applicable law may require the cancelation of your SAR (whether vested or unvested) and the recoupment of any gains realized with respect to your SAR.

vest, provided that the Company only withholds the amount of Shares necessary to satisfy the minimum statutory withholding amount, (b) having the Company withhold taxes from the proceeds of the sale of the Shares, either through a voluntary
sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on your behalf and you hereby authorize such sales by this authorization), (c) your payment of a cash amount, or (d) any other arrangement approved by the Company; all under such
rules as may be established by the Committee and in compliance with the Company’s Insider Trading Policy and 10b5-1 Trading Plan Policy, if applicable; provided however, that if you are a Section 16 officer of the Company under the
Exchange Act, then the Committee (as constituted in 

 
accordance with Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act) shall establish the method of withholding from alternatives (a)-(d) above, and the Committee shall establish the method prior to the
Tax-Related Items withholding event. The Fair Market Value of these Shares, determined as of the effective date when taxes otherwise would have been withheld in cash, will be applied as a credit against the withholding taxes. You 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 as a result of your participation in the Plan or your purchase of Shares that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described.
Finally, you acknowledge that the Company has no obligation to deliver Shares to you until you have satisfied the obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items as described in this Section. 

7. Acknowledgement. The Company and you agree that the Stock Bonus Award is granted under and governed by the Notice, this Agreement and by the

Agreement, nor any waiver of any rights under this Agreement, shall be effective unless in writing and signed by the parties to this Agreement. The failure by either party to enforce any rights under this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver
of any rights of such party. 
 9. Compliance with Laws and Regulations. The issuance of Shares will be subject to and
conditioned upon compliance by the Company and you with all applicable state and federal laws and regulations and with all applicable requirements of any stock exchange or automated quotation system on which the Company’s Common Stock may be

 10. Governing Law; Severability. If one or more provisions of this
Agreement are held to be unenforceable under applicable law, the parties agree to renegotiate such provision in good faith. In the event that the parties cannot reach a mutually agreeable and enforceable replacement for such provision, then
(i) such provision shall be excluded from this Agreement, (ii) the balance of this Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and (iii) the balance of this Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with
its terms. This Agreement and all acts and transactions pursuant hereto and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to
principles of conflicts of law. For purposes of litigating any dispute that may arise directly or indirectly from the Plan, the Notice and this Agreement, the parties hereby submit and consent to litigation in the exclusive jurisdiction of the State
of California and agree that any such litigation shall be conducted only in the courts of California or the federal courts of the United States for the Northern District of California and no other courts.

	Title:	  	  

 RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT 

NIMBLE STORAGE, INC. 

2013 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN 

THIS RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of
            , 20     by and between Nimble Storage, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and
            (“Participant”) pursuant to the Company’s 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). Unless otherwise defined herein, the
terms defined in the Plan shall have the same meanings in this Agreement. 
 1. Sale of Stock. Subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, on the Purchase Date (as defined below) the Company will issue and sell to Participant, and Participant agrees to purchase from the Company, the number of Shares shown on the Notice of Restricted Stock Award (the
“Notice”) at a purchase price of $         per Share. The term “Shares” refers to the purchased Shares and all securities received in replacement of or in connection with the
Shares pursuant to stock dividends or splits, all securities received in replacement of the Shares in a recapitalization, merger, reorganization, exchange or the like, and all new, substituted or additional securities or other properties to which
Participant is entitled by reason of Participant’s ownership of the Shares. 
 2. Time and Place of Purchase. The
purchase and sale of the Shares under this Agreement shall occur at the principal office of the Company simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement by the parties, or on such other date as the Company and Participant shall agree (the
“Purchase Date”). On the Purchase Date, the Company will issue a stock certificate registered in Participant’s name, or uncertificated shares designated for the Participant in book entry form on the records of the
Company’s transfer agent, representing the Shares to be purchased by Participant against payment of the purchase price therefor by Participant by (a) check made payable to the Company, (b) cancellation of indebtedness of the Company
to Participant, (c) Participant’s personal Services that the Committee has determined have already been rendered to the Company and have a value not less than aggregate par value of the Shares to be issued Participant, or (d) a
combination of the foregoing. 
 3. Restrictions on Resale. By signing this Agreement, Participant agrees not to sell any
Shares acquired pursuant to the Plan and this Agreement at a time when applicable laws, regulations or Company or underwriter trading policies prohibit exercise or sale. This restriction will apply as long as Participant is providing Service to the
Company or a Subsidiary of the Company. 
 3.1 Repurchase Right on Termination Other Than for Cause. For the purposes of this
Agreement, a “Repurchase Event” shall mean an occurrence of one of the following: 
 (i) termination of
Participant’s Service, whether voluntary or involuntary and with or without cause; 
 (ii) resignation, retirement or death of
Participant; or 
 (iii) any attempted transfer by Participant of the Shares, or any interest therein, in violation of this
Agreement. 
 Upon the occurrence of a Repurchase Event, the Company shall have the right (but not an obligation) to purchase the Shares of Participant at a
price equal to the Purchase Price per Share (the “Repurchase Right”). The Repurchase Right shall lapse in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth in the Notice 

 
of Restricted Stock Award. For purposes of this Agreement, “Unvested Shares” means Stock pursuant to which the Company’s Repurchase Right has not lapsed. 

3.2 Exercise of Repurchase Right. Unless the Company provides written notice to Participant within 90 days from the date of
termination of Participant’s Service to the Company that the Company does not intend to exercise its Repurchase Right with respect to some or all of the Unvested Shares, the Repurchase Right shall be deemed automatically exercised by the
Company as of the 90th day following such termination, provided that the Company may notify Participant that it is exercising its Repurchase Right as of a date prior to such 90th day. Unless Participant is otherwise notified by the Company pursuant
to the preceding sentence that the Company does not intend to exercise its Repurchase Right as to some or all of the Unvested Shares, execution of this Agreement by Participant constitutes written notice to Participant of the Company’s
intention to exercise its Repurchase Right with respect to all Unvested Shares to which such Repurchase Right applies at the time of Participant’s termination of Service. The Company, at its choice, may satisfy its payment obligation to
Participant with respect to exercise of the Repurchase Right by either (A) delivering a check to Participant in the amount of the purchase price for the Unvested Shares being repurchased, or (B) in the event Participant is indebted to the
Company, canceling an amount of such indebtedness equal to the purchase price for the Unvested Shares being repurchased, or (C) by a combination of (A) and (B) so that the combined payment and cancellation of indebtedness equals such
purchase price. In the event of any deemed automatic exercise of the Repurchase Right by canceling an amount of such indebtedness equal to the purchase price for the Unvested Shares being repurchased, such cancellation of indebtedness shall be
deemed automatically to occur as of the 90th day following termination of Participant’s Service unless the Company otherwise satisfies its payment obligations. As a result of any repurchase of Unvested Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Right,
the Company shall become the legal and beneficial owner of the Unvested Shares being repurchased and shall have all rights and interest therein or related thereto, and the Company shall have the right to transfer to its own name the number of
Unvested Shares being repurchased by the Company, without further action by Participant. 
 3.3 Acceptance of Restrictions.
Acceptance of the Shares shall constitute Participant’s agreement to such restrictions and the legending of his or her certificates or the notation in the Company’s direct registration system for stock issuance and transfer of such
restrictions and accompanying legends set forth in Section 4.1 with respect thereto. Notwithstanding such restrictions, however, so long as Participant is the holder of the Shares, or any portion thereof, he or she shall be entitled to receive
all dividends declared on and to vote the Shares and to all other rights of a stockholder with respect thereto. 
 3.4
Non-Transferability of Unvested Shares. In addition to any other limitation on transfer created by applicable securities laws or any other agreement between the Company and Participant, Participant may not transfer any Unvested Shares, or
any interest therein, unless consented to in writing by a duly authorized representative of the Company. Any purported transfer is void and of no effect, and no purported transferee thereof will be recognized as a holder of the Unvested Shares for
any purpose whatsoever. Should such a transfer purport to occur, the Company may refuse to carry out the transfer on its books, set aside the transfer, or exercise any other legal or equitable remedy. In the event the Company consents to a transfer
of Unvested Shares, all transferees of Shares or any interest therein will receive and hold such Shares or interest subject to the provisions of this Agreement, including, insofar as applicable, the Repurchase Right. In the event of any purchase by
the Company hereunder where the Shares or interest are held by a transferee, the transferee shall be obligated, if requested by the Company, to transfer the Shares or interest to the Participant for consideration equal to the amount to be paid by
the Company hereunder. In the event the Repurchase Right is deemed exercised by the Company, the Company may deem any transferee to have transferred the Shares or interest to Participant prior to their purchase by the Company, and payment of the
purchase price by the Company to such 

  
 2 

 
transferee shall be deemed to satisfy Participant’s obligation to pay such transferee for such Shares or interest, and also to satisfy the Company’s obligation to pay Participant for
such Shares or interest. 
 3.5 Assignment. The Repurchase Right may be assigned by the Company in whole or in part to any
persons or organization. 
 4. Stop Transfer Orders. 

4.1 Stop-Transfer Notices. Participant agrees that, in order to ensure compliance with the restrictions referred to herein, the
Company may issue appropriate “stop transfer” instructions to its transfer agent, if any, and that, if the Company transfers its own securities, it may make appropriate notations to the same effect in its own records. 

4.2 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 the owner 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.

 5. No Rights as Employee, Director or Consultant. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect in any manner whatsoever the right
or power of the Company, or a Parent or Subsidiary of the Company, to terminate Participant’s Service, for any reason, with or without cause. 

6. Miscellaneous. 

6.1 Acknowledgement. The Company and Participant agree that the Restricted Shares are granted under and governed by the Notice,
this Agreement and by the provisions of the Plan (incorporated herein by reference). Participant: (i) acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and the Plan prospectus, (ii) represents that Participant has carefully read and is familiar
with their provisions, and (iii) hereby accepts the Restricted Shares subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth herein and those set forth in the Plan and the Notice. 

6.2 Entire Agreement; Enforcement of Rights. This Agreement, the Plan and the Notice constitute the entire agreement and
understanding of the parties relating to the subject matter herein and supersede all prior discussions between them. Any prior agreements, commitments or negotiations concerning the purchase of the Shares hereunder are superseded. No modification of
or amendment to this Agreement, nor any waiver of any rights under this Agreement, shall be effective unless in writing and signed by the parties to this Agreement. The failure by either party to enforce any rights under this Agreement shall not be
construed as a waiver of any rights of such party. 
 6.3 Compliance with Laws and Regulations. The issuance of Shares will be
subject to and conditioned upon compliance by the Company and Participant with all applicable state and federal laws and regulations and with all applicable requirements of any stock exchange or automated quotation system on which the Company’s
Common Stock may be listed or quoted at the time of such issuance or transfer. The Shares issued pursuant to this Agreement shall be endorsed with appropriate legends, if any, determined by the Company. 

6.4 Governing Law; Severability. If one or more provisions of this Agreement are held to be unenforceable under applicable law,
the parties agree to renegotiate such provision in good faith. In the event that the parties cannot reach a mutually agreeable and enforceable replacement for such provision, then (i) such provision shall be excluded from this Agreement,
(ii) the balance of this Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and (iii) the balance of this 

  
 3 

 
Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms. This Agreement and all acts and transactions pursuant hereto and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed,
construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law. For purposes of litigating any dispute that may arise directly or indirectly from the Plan, the Notice and this
Agreement, the parties hereby submit and consent to litigation in the exclusive jurisdiction of the State of California and agree that any such litigation shall be conducted only in the courts of California or the federal courts of the United States
for the Northern District of California and no other courts. 
 6.5 Construction. This Agreement is the result of negotiations
between and has been reviewed by each of the parties hereto and their respective counsel, if any; accordingly, this Agreement shall be deemed to be the product of all of the parties hereto, and no ambiguity shall be construed in favor of or against
any one of the parties hereto. 
 6.6 Notices. Any notice to be given under the terms of the Plan shall be addressed to the
Company in care of its principal office, and any notice to be given to the Participant shall be addressed to such Participant at the address maintained by the Company for such person or at such other address as the Participant may specify in writing
to the Company. 
 6.7 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall he deemed
an original and all of which together shall constitute one instrument. 
 6.8 U.S. Tax Consequences. Unless an Election
(defined below) is made, upon vesting of Shares, Participant will include in taxable income the difference between the fair market value of the vesting Shares, as determined on the date of their vesting, and the price paid for the Shares. This will
be treated as ordinary income by Participant and will be subject to withholding by the Company when required by applicable law. In the absence of an Election, the Company shall satisfy the withholding requirements as set forth in Section 7
below. If Participant makes an Election, then Participant must, prior to making the Election, pay in cash (or check) to the Company an amount equal to the amount the Company is required to withhold for income and employment taxes. 

7. Withholding Taxes. Regardless of any action the Company or your employer (the “Employer”) takes with
respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), you acknowledge that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by
you is and remains your responsibility and 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 Shares received under this award,
including the award or vesting of such Shares, the subsequent sale of Shares under this award and the receipt of any dividends; and (2) do not commit to structure the terms of the award to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related
Items. 
 No stock certificates will be released to you unless you have paid or made adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer
to satisfy all withholding and payment on account obligations of the Company and/or the Employer. In this regard, you authorize the Company and/or the Employer to withhold all applicable Tax-Related Items legally payable by you from your wages or
other cash compensation paid to you by the Company and/or your Employer. With the Company’s consent, these arrangements may also include, if permissible under local law, (a) withholding Shares that otherwise would be released from the
Repurchase Right when they vest, provided that the Company only withholds the amount of Shares necessary to satisfy the minimum statutory withholding amount, (b) having the Company withhold taxes from the proceeds of the sale of the Shares,
either through a 

  
 4 

 
voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on your behalf and you hereby authorize such sales by this authorization), (c) your payment of a cash amount, or
(d) any other arrangement approved by the Company; all under such rules as may be established by the Committee and in compliance with the Company’s Insider Trading Policy and 10b5-1 Trading Plan Policy, if applicable; provided however,
that if you are a Section 16 officer of the Company under the Exchange Act, then the Committee (as constituted in accordance with Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act) shall establish the method of withholding from alternatives (a)-(d) above,
and the Committee shall establish the method prior to the Tax-Related Items withholding event. The Fair Market Value of these Shares, determined as of the effective date when taxes otherwise would have been withheld in cash, will be applied as a
credit against the withholding taxes. You 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 as a result of your participation in the Plan or your purchase of Shares
that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. Finally, you acknowledge that the Company has no obligation to deliver Shares to you until you have satisfied the obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items as described in this
Section. 
 8. Section 83(b) Election. Participant hereby acknowledges that he or she has been informed that, with
respect to the purchase of the Shares, an election may be filed by the Participant with the Internal Revenue Service, within 30 days of the purchase of the Shares, electing pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code to be taxed currently on any
difference between the purchase price of the Shares and their Fair Market Value on the date of purchase (the “Election”). Making the Election will result in recognition of taxable income to the Participant on the date of
purchase, measured by the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value of the Shares over the purchase price for the Shares. Absent such an Election, taxable income will be measured and recognized by Participant at the time or times on which the
Company’s Repurchase Right lapses. Participant is strongly encouraged to seek the advice of his or her own tax consultants in connection with the purchase of the Shares and the advisability of filing of the Election. PARTICIPANT ACKNOWLEDGES
THAT IT IS SOLELY PARTICIPANT’S RESPONSIBILITY, AND NOT THE COMPANY’S RESPONSIBILITY, TO TIMELY FILE THE ELECTION UNDER SECTION 83(b) OF THE CODE, EVEN IF PARTICIPANT REQUESTS THE COMPANY, OR ITS REPRESENTATIVE, TO MAKE THIS FILING ON
PARTICIPANT’S BEHALF. 
 9. Consent to Electronic Delivery of All Plan Documents and Disclosures. By acceptance of this
Restricted Stock Award, Participant consents to the electronic delivery of the Notice, this Agreement, the Plan, account statements, Plan prospectuses required by the Securities and Exchange Commission, U.S. financial reports of the Company, and all
other documents that the Company is required to deliver to its security holders (including, without limitation, annual reports and proxy statements) or other communications or information related to the Restricted Stock Award. Electronic delivery
may include the delivery of a link to a Company intranet or the internet site of a third party involved in administering the Plan, the delivery of the document via e-mail or such other delivery determined at the Company’s discretion.
Participant acknowledges that Participant may receive from the Company a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically at no cost if Participant contacts the Company by telephone, through a postal service or electronic mail at [insert email].
Participant further acknowledges that Participant will be provided with a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically if electronic delivery fails; similarly, Participant understands that Participant must provide on request to the Company
or any designated third party a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically if electronic delivery fails. Also, Participant understands that Participant’s consent may be revoked or changed, including any change in the electronic mail
address to which documents are delivered (if Participant has provided an electronic mail address), at any time by notifying the Company of such revised or revoked consent by telephone, postal service or electronic mail at [insert email]. Finally,
Participant understands that Participant is not required to consent to electronic delivery. 

  
 5 

 10. Award Subject to Company Clawback or Recoupment. The Shares shall be subject to
clawback or recoupment pursuant to any compensation clawback or recoupment policy adopted by the Board or required by law during the term of Participant’s employment or other Service with the Company that is applicable to executive officers,
Employees, Directors or other service providers of the Company, and in addition to any other remedies available under such policy and applicable law may require the cancellation of Participant’s Shares (whether vested or unvested) and the
recoupment of any gains realized with respect to Participant’s Shares. 
 The parties have executed this Agreement as of the date first
set forth above.

 PERFORMANCE SHARES AGREEMENT 

NIMBLE STORAGE, INC. 

2013 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN 
 You have been
granted a Performance Shares Award (“Performance Shares Award”) by Nimble Storage, Inc. (the “Company”), subject to the terms, restrictions and conditions of the Plan, the Notice of Performance Shares
Award (“Notice”) and this Agreement. 
 1. Settlement. Your Performance Shares Award shall be settled in Shares and
the Company’s transfer agent shall record ownership of such Shares in your name as soon as reasonably practicable after achievement of the Performance Factors enumerated in the Notice. 

2. Stockholder Rights. You shall have no right to dividends or to vote Shares until you are recorded as the holder of such Shares on the stock
records of the Company and its transfer agent. 
 3. No-Transfer. Your interest in this Performance Shares Award shall not be sold, assigned,
transferred, pledged, hypothecated, or otherwise disposed of. 
 4. Termination. Upon your termination of Service for any reason, all of your
rights under the Plan, this Agreement and the Notice in respect of this Award shall immediately terminate. In case of any dispute as to whether a termination of Service has occurred, the Committee shall have sole discretion to determine whether such
termination has occurred and the effective date of such termination. 
 5. Tax Consequences. YOU SHOULD CONSULT A TAX ADVISER BEFORE ACQUIRING
THE SHARES IN THE JURISDICTION IN WHICH HE OR SHE IS SUBJECT TO TAX. Shares shall not be issued under this Agreement unless you arrangements acceptable to the Company to pay any withholding taxes that may be due as a result of the acquisition or
vesting of Shares. 
 6. Withholding Taxes. Regardless of any action the Company or your employer (the “Employer”)
takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), you acknowledge that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items
legally due by you is and remains your responsibility and that the Company and/or your Employer (1) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Shares received
under this award, including the award or vesting of such Shares, the subsequent sale of Shares under this award and the receipt of any dividends; and (2) do not commit to structure the terms of the award to reduce or eliminate your liability
for Tax-Related Items. 
 No stock certificates will be released to you unless you have paid or made adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company
and/or the Employer to satisfy all withholding and payment on account obligations of the Company and/or the Employer. In this regard, you authorize the Company and/or the Employer to withhold all applicable Tax-Related Items legally payable by you
from your wages or other cash compensation paid to you by the Company and/or your Employer. With the Company’s consent, these arrangements may also include, if permissible under local law, (a) withholding Shares that otherwise would be
issued to you when they vest, provided that the Company only withholds the amount of Shares necessary to satisfy the minimum statutory withholding amount, (b) having the Company withhold taxes from the proceeds of the sale of the Shares, either
through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on your behalf and you hereby authorize such sales by this authorization), (c) your payment of a cash amount, or (d) any other arrangement approved by the
Company; all under such rules as may be established by the Committee and in compliance with the Company’s Insider Trading Policy and 10b5-1 Trading Plan Policy, if applicable; provided however, that if you are a Section 16 officer of the
Company under the Exchange Act, then the Committee (as constituted in accordance with Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act) shall establish the method of withholding from 

 
alternatives (a)-(d) above, and the Committee shall establish the method prior to the Tax-Related Items withholding event. The Fair Market Value of these Shares, determined as of the
effective date when taxes otherwise would have been withheld in cash, will be applied as a credit against the withholding taxes. You 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 as a result of your participation in the Plan or your purchase of Shares that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. Finally, you acknowledge that the Company has no obligation to deliver Shares to you until you
have satisfied the obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items as described in this Section. 
 7. Acknowledgement. The Company and
you agree that the Performance Shares Award is granted under and governed by the Notice, this Agreement and by the provisions of the Plan (incorporated herein by reference). You: (i) acknowledge receipt of a copy of the Plan and the Plan
prospectus, (ii) represent that you have carefully read and are familiar with their provisions, and (iii) hereby accept the Performance Shares Award subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth herein and those set forth in the
Plan, this Agreement and the Notice. 
 8. Entire Agreement; Enforcement of Rights. This Agreement, the Plan and the Notice constitute the
entire agreement and understanding of the parties relating to the subject matter herein and supersede all prior discussions between them. Any prior agreements, commitments or negotiations concerning the purchase of the Shares hereunder are
superseded. No modification of or amendment to this Agreement, nor any waiver of any rights under this Agreement, shall be effective unless in writing and signed by the parties to this Agreement. The failure by either party to enforce any rights
under this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of any rights of such party. 
 9.
Compliance with Laws and Regulations. The issuance of Shares will be subject to and conditioned upon compliance by the Company and Participant with all applicable state and federal laws and regulations and with all
applicable requirements of any stock exchange or automated quotation system on which the Company’s Common Stock may be listed or quoted at the time of such issuance or transfer. 

10. Governing Law; Severability. If one or more provisions of this Agreement are held to be unenforceable under applicable law, the
parties agree to renegotiate such provision in good faith. In the event that the parties cannot reach a mutually agreeable and enforceable replacement for such provision, then (i) such provision shall be excluded from this Agreement,
(ii) the balance of this Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and (iii) the balance of this Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms. This Agreement and all acts and transactions pursuant
hereto and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law. For purposes of litigating any
dispute that may arise directly or indirectly from the Plan, the Notice and this Agreement, the parties hereby submit and consent to litigation in the exclusive jurisdiction of the State of California and agree that any such litigation shall be
conducted only in the courts of California or the federal courts of the United States for the Northern District of California and no other courts.

other Service with the Company that is applicable to executive officers, Employees, Directors or other service providers of the Company, and in addition to any other remedies available under such policy and applicable law may require the

 3EX-10.4

 Exhibit 10.4 
 NIMBLE STORAGE, INC. 
 2013 EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN 

1. PURPOSE. Nimble Storage, Inc. adopted the Plan effective as of the date of the IPO. The purpose of this Plan is to provide
eligible employees of the Company and the Participating Corporations with a means of acquiring an equity interest in the Company through payroll deductions, to enhance such employees’ sense of participation in the affairs of the Company.
Capitalized terms not defined elsewhere in the text are defined in Section 28. 
 2. ESTABLISHMENT OF PLAN. The
Company proposes to grant rights to purchase shares of Common Stock to eligible employees of the Company and its Participating Corporations pursuant to this Plan. The Company intends this Plan to qualify as an “employee stock purchase
plan” under Section 423 of the Code (including any amendments to or replacements of such Section), and this Plan shall be so construed. Any term not expressly defined in this Plan but defined for purposes of Section 423 of the Code
shall have the same definition herein. In addition, with regard to offers of options to purchase shares of the Common Stock under the Plan to employees working for a Subsidiary or an Affiliate outside the United States, this Plan authorizes the
grant of options that are not intended to meet Section 423 requirements, provided, if necessary under Section 423 of the Code, the other terms and conditions of the Plan are met. 

Subject to Section 14, a total of the lesser of 3,350,000 shares of Common Stock or 2% of Common Stock and Common Stock equivalents
(including options, RSUs, warrants and the pool of available Shares under the Plan and the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (it being understood that this calculation will be done collectively with the calculation of the pool of available Shares under the
2013 Equity Incentive Plan)) outstanding on the date of consummation of the IPO is reserved for issuance under this Plan. In addition, on each February 1 of each calendar year, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock reserved for
issuance under the Plan shall be increased automatically by the number of shares equal to one percent (1%) of the total number of outstanding shares of Common Stock and Common Stock equivalents outstanding on the immediately preceding
January 31 (rounded down to the nearest whole share); provided, that the Board or the Committee may in its sole discretion reduce the amount of the increase in any particular year. Subject to Section 14, no more than thirty million
(30,000,000) shares of Common Stock may be issued over the term of this Plan. The number of shares initially reserved for issuance under this Plan and the maximum number of shares that may be issued under this Plan shall be subject to
adjustments effected in accordance with Section 14. 
 3. ADMINISTRATION. The Plan will be administered by the
Committee. Subject to the provisions of this Plan and the limitations of Section 423 of the Code or any successor provision in the Code, all questions of interpretation or application of this Plan shall be determined by the Committee and its
decisions shall be final and binding upon all Participants. The Committee will have full and exclusive discretionary authority to construe, interpret and apply the terms of the Plan, to determine eligibility, to designate the Participating
Corporations, to determine when to grant options which are not intended to meet the Code Section 423 requirements and to decide upon any and all claims filed under the Plan. Every finding, decision and determination made by the Committee will,
to the full extent permitted by law, be final and binding upon all parties. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Plan, the Committee may adopt rules, sub-plans, and/or procedures relating to the operation and administration of the
Plan designed to comply with local laws, regulations or customs or to achieve tax, securities law or other objectives for eligible employees outside of the United States. The Committee will have the authority to determine the Fair Market Value of
the Common Stock (which determination shall be final, binding and conclusive for all purposes) in accordance with Section 8 below and to interpret Section 8 of the Plan in connection with circumstances that impact the Fair Market Value.
Members of the Committee 

 
shall receive no compensation for their services in connection with the administration of this Plan, other than standard fees as established from time to time by the Board for services rendered
by Board members serving on Board committees. All expenses incurred in connection with the administration of this Plan shall be paid by the Company. For purposes of this Plan, the Committee may designate separate offerings under the Plan (the terms
of which need not be identical) in which eligible employees of one or more Participating Corporations will participate, even if the dates of the applicable Offering Periods of each such offering are identical. 

4. ELIGIBILITY. 
 (a) Any employee of the Company or the Participating Corporations is eligible to participate in an Offering Period under this Plan, except that one or more of the following categories of employees may be
excluded from coverage under the Plan by the Committee (other than where prohibited by applicable law): 
 (i) employees who are
customarily employed for twenty (20) hours or less per week; 
 (ii) employees who are customarily employed for five
(5) months or less in a calendar year; and 
 (iii) employees who do not meet any other eligibility requirements that the
Committee may choose to impose (within the limits permitted by the Code). 
 The foregoing notwithstanding, an individual shall not be eligible
if his or her participation in the Plan is prohibited by the law of any country that has jurisdiction over him or her, if complying with the laws of the applicable country would cause the Plan to violate Section 423 of the Code, or if he or she
is subject to a collective bargaining agreement that does not provide for participation in the Plan. 
 (b) No employee who,
together with any other person whose stock would be attributed to such employee pursuant to Section 424(d) of the Code, owns stock or holds options to purchase stock possessing five percent (5%) or more of the total combined voting power
or value of all classes of stock of the Company or its Parent or Subsidiary or who, as a result of being granted an option under this Plan with respect to such Offering Period, would own stock or hold options to purchase stock possessing five
percent (5%) or more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of stock of the Company or its Parent or Subsidiary shall be granted an option to purchase Common Stock under the Plan. 

5. OFFERING DATES. 
 (a) Each Offering Period of this Plan may be of up to twenty-seven (27) months duration and shall commence and end at the times designated by the Committee. Each Offering Period may consist of one or
more Purchase Periods during which payroll deductions of Participants are accumulated under this Plan. 
 (b) The initial
Offering Period shall commence on a date selected by the Committee and shall end with the Purchase Date that occurs on a date selected by the Committee which is approximately twenty four months after the commencement of the initial Offering Period,
but no more than twenty-seven (27) months after the commencement of the initial Offering period. The initial Offering Period shall consist of four Purchase Periods. Thereafter, a twenty four-month Offering Period shall commence on each
March 10 and September 10, with each such Offering Period also consisting of four six-month Purchase Periods, except as otherwise provided by an applicable subplan, or on such other 

  
 - 2 -

 
date determined by the Committee. The Committee may at any time establish a different duration for an Offering Period or Purchase Period to be effective after the next scheduled Purchase Date.

 6. PARTICIPATION IN THIS PLAN. 
 (a) Any employee who is an eligible employee determined in accordance with Section 4 immediately prior to the initial Offering Period, and has not indicated otherwise in writing prior to the
commencement of the initial Offering Period, will be automatically enrolled in the initial Offering Period under this Plan for the maximum number of shares of Common Stock purchasable. With respect to subsequent Offering Periods, any eligible
employee determined in accordance with Section 4 will be eligible to participate in this Plan, subject to the requirement of Section 6(b) hereof and the other terms and provisions of this Plan. 

(b) With respect to Offering Periods after the initial Offering Period, a Participant may elect to participate in this Plan by submitting
an enrollment agreement prior to the commencement of the Offering Period (or such earlier date as the Committee may determine) to which such agreement relates. 
 (c) Once an employee becomes a Participant in an Offering Period, then such Participant will automatically participate in each subsequent Offering Period commencing immediately following the last day of
the prior Offering Period unless the Participant withdraws or is deemed to withdraw from this Plan or terminates further participation in an Offering Period as set forth in Section 11 below. A Participant who is continuing participation
pursuant to the preceding sentence is not required to file any additional enrollment agreement in order to continue participation in this Plan; a Participant who is not continuing participation pursuant to the preceding sentence is required to file
an enrollment agreement prior to the commencement of the Offering Period (or such earlier date as the Committee may determine) to which such agreement relates. 
 7. GRANT OF OPTION ON ENROLLMENT. Becoming a Participant with respect to an Offering Period will constitute the grant (as of the Offering Date) by the Company to such Participant of an option to
purchase on the Purchase Date up to that number of shares of Common Stock of the Company determined by a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount accumulated in such Participant’s payroll deduction account during such Purchase Period
and the denominator of which is the lower of (i) eighty-five percent (85%) of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the Offering Date (but in no event less than the par value of a share of the Common Stock), or
(ii) eighty-five percent (85%) of the Fair Market Value of a share of the Common Stock on the Purchase Date provided, however, that for the Purchase Period within the initial Offering Period the numerator shall be fifteen
percent (15%) of the Participant’s compensation for such Purchase Period, or such lower percentage as determined by the Committee prior to the start of the Offering Period, and provided, further, that the number of shares of
Common Stock subject to any option granted pursuant to this Plan shall not exceed the lesser of (x) the maximum number of shares set by the Committee pursuant to Section 10(b) below with respect to the applicable Purchase Date, or
(y) the maximum number of shares which may be purchased pursuant to Section 10(a) below with respect to the applicable Purchase Date. 
 8. PURCHASE PRICE. The Purchase Price per share at which a share of Common Stock will be sold in any Offering Period shall be eighty-five percent (85%) of the lesser of: 

(a) The Fair Market Value on the Offering Date; or 
 (b) The Fair Market Value on the Purchase Date. 

  
 - 3 -

 9. PAYMENT OF PURCHASE PRICE; PAYROLL DEDUCTION CHANGES; SHARE ISSUANCES. 

(a) The Purchase Price shall be accumulated by regular payroll deductions made during each Offering Period, unless the Committee
determines with respect to categories of Participants outside the United States that contributions may be made in another form due to local legal requirements. The deductions are made as a percentage of the Participant’s compensation in one
percent (1%) increments not less than one percent (1%), nor greater than fifteen percent (15%) or such lower limit set by the Committee. Compensation shall mean all W-2 cash compensation, including without limitation base salary or regular
hourly wages, bonuses, incentive compensation, commissions, overtime, shift premiums, plus draws against commissions (or in foreign jurisdictions, equivalent cash compensation); however, the Committee may at any time prior to the beginning of an
Offering Period determine a definition of Compensation that is different than the above. For purposes of determining a Participant’s Compensation, any election by such Participant to reduce his or her regular cash remuneration under Sections
125 or 401(k) of the Code (or in foreign jurisdictions, equivalent salary deductions) shall be treated as if the Participant did not make such election. Payroll deductions shall commence on the first payday following the last Purchase Date (with
respect to the initial Offering Period, as soon as practicable following the effective date of filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission a securities registration statement for the Plan) and shall continue to the end of the Offering
Period unless sooner altered or terminated as provided in this Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the terms of any sub-plan may permit matching shares without the payment of any purchase price. 

(b) A Participant may decrease the rate of payroll deductions during an Offering Period by filing with the Company a new authorization
for payroll deductions, with the new rate to become effective no later than the second payroll period commencing after the Company’s receipt of the authorization and continuing for the remainder of the Offering Period unless changed as
described below. A decrease in the rate of payroll deductions may be made once during an Offering Period or more frequently under rules determined by the Committee. A Participant may increase or decrease the rate of payroll deductions for any
subsequent Offering Period by filing with the Company a new authorization for payroll deductions prior to the beginning of such Offering Period, or such other time period as specified by the Committee. 

(c) A Participant may reduce his or her payroll deduction percentage to zero during an Offering Period by filing with the Company a
request for cessation of payroll deductions. Such reduction shall be effective beginning no later than the second payroll period after the Company’s receipt of the request and no further payroll deductions will be made for the duration of the
Offering Period. Payroll deductions credited to the Participant’s account prior to the effective date of the request shall be used to purchase shares of Common Stock in accordance with Subsection (e) below. A reduction of the payroll
deduction percentage to zero shall be treated as such Participant’s withdrawal from such Offering Period and the Plan, effective as of the day after the next Purchase Date following the filing date of such request with the Company. 

(d) All payroll deductions made for a Participant are credited to his or her account under this Plan and are deposited with the general
funds of the Company, except to the extent local legal restrictions outside the United States require segregation of such payroll deductions. No interest accrues on the payroll deductions, except to the extent required due to local legal
requirements. All payroll deductions received or held by the Company may be used by the Company for any corporate purpose, and the Company shall not be obligated to segregate such payroll deductions, except to the extent necessary to comply with
local legal requirements outside the United States. 

  
 - 4 -

 (e) On each Purchase Date, so long as this Plan remains in effect and provided that the
Participant has not submitted a signed and completed withdrawal form before that date which notifies the Company that the Participant wishes to withdraw from that Offering Period under this Plan and have all payroll deductions accumulated in the
account maintained on behalf of the Participant as of that date returned to the Participant, the Company shall apply the funds then in the Participant’s account to the purchase of whole shares of Common Stock reserved under the option granted
to such Participant with respect to the Offering Period to the extent that such option is exercisable on the Purchase Date. The Purchase Price per share shall be as specified in Section 8 of this Plan. Any fractional share, as calculated under
this Subsection (e), shall be rounded down to the next lower whole share, unless the Committee determines with respect to all Participants that any fractional share shall be credited as a fractional share. Any amount remaining in a
Participant’s account on a Purchase Date which is less than the amount necessary to purchase a full share of the Common Stock shall be carried forward, without interest (except to the extent necessary to comply with local legal requirements
outside the United States), into the next Purchase Period or Offering Period, as the case may be. In the event that this Plan has been oversubscribed, all funds not used to purchase shares on the Purchase Date shall be returned to the Participant,
without interest (except to the extent required due to local legal requirements outside the United States). No Common Stock shall be purchased on a Purchase Date on behalf of any employee whose participation in this Plan has terminated prior to such
Purchase Date, except to the extent required due to local legal requirements outside the United States. 
 (f) As promptly as
practicable after the Purchase Date, the Company shall issue shares for the Participant’s benefit representing the shares purchased upon exercise of his or her option. 
 (g) During a Participant’s lifetime, his or her option to purchase shares hereunder is exercisable only by him or her. The Participant will have no interest or voting right in shares covered by his
or her option until such option has been exercised. 
 (h) To the extent required by applicable federal, state, local or foreign
law, a Participant shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for the satisfaction of any withholding tax obligations that arise in connection with the Plan. The Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate, as applicable, may withhold, by any
method permissible under the applicable law, the amount necessary for the Company or Subsidiary or Affiliate, as applicable, to meet applicable withholding obligations, including any withholding required to make available to the Company or
Subsidiary or Affiliate, as applicable, any tax deductions or benefits attributable to the sale or early disposition of shares of Common Stock by a Participant. The Company shall not be required to issue any shares of Common Stock under the Plan
until such obligations are satisfied. 
 10. LIMITATIONS ON SHARES TO BE PURCHASED. 

(a) Any other provision of the Plan notwithstanding, no Participant shall purchase Common Stock with a Fair Market Value in excess of the
following limit: 
 (i) In the case of Common Stock purchased during an Offering Period that commenced in the
current calendar year, the limit shall be equal to (A) $25,000 minus (B) the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock that the Participant previously purchased in the current calendar year (under this Plan and all other employee stock
purchase plans of the Company or any parent or Subsidiary of the Company). 

  
 - 5 -

 (ii) In the case of Common Stock purchased during an Offering Period that
commenced in the immediately preceding calendar year, the limit shall be equal to (A) $50,000 minus (B) the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock that the Participant previously purchased (under this Plan and all other employee stock
purchase plans of the Company or any parent or Subsidiary of the Company) in the current calendar year and in the immediately preceding calendar year. 
 (iii) In the case of Common Stock purchased during an Offering Period that commenced two calendar years prior, the limit shall be equal to (A) $75,000 minus (B) the Fair Market Value of the
Common Stock that the Participant previously purchased (under this Plan and all other employee stock purchase plans of the Company or any parent or Subsidiary of the Company) in the current calendar year and in the two immediately preceding calendar
years. 
 For purposes of this Subsection (a), the Fair Market Value of Common Stock shall be determined in each case as of the beginning
of the Offering Period in which such Common Stock is purchased. Employee stock purchase plans not described in Section 423 of the Code shall be disregarded. If a Participant is precluded by this Subsection (a) from purchasing additional
Common Stock under the Plan, then his or her employee contributions shall automatically be discontinued and shall automatically resume at the beginning of the earliest Purchase Period that will end in the next calendar year (if he or she then is an
eligible employee), provided that when the Company automatically resumes such payroll deductions, the Company must apply the rate in effect immediately prior to such suspension. 

(b) In no event shall a Participant be permitted to purchase more than 2,000 shares on any one Purchase Date or such lesser number as the
Committee shall determine. If a lower limit is set under this Subsection (b), then all Participants will be notified of such limit prior to the commencement of the next Offering Period for which it is to be effective. 

(c) If the number of shares to be purchased on a Purchase Date by all Participants exceeds the number of shares then available for
issuance under this Plan, then the Company will make a pro rata allocation of the remaining shares in as uniform a manner as shall be reasonably practicable and as the Committee shall determine to be equitable. In such event, the Company will give
notice of such reduction of the number of shares to be purchased under a Participant’s option to each Participant affected. 
 (d) Any payroll deductions accumulated in a Participant’s account which are not used to purchase stock due to the limitations in this Section 10, and not covered by Section 9(e), shall be
returned to the Participant as soon as practicable after the end of the applicable Purchase Period, without interest (except to the extent required due to local legal requirements outside the United States). 

11. WITHDRAWAL. 
 (a) Each Participant may withdraw from an Offering Period under this Plan pursuant to a method specified for such purpose by the Company. Such withdrawal may be elected at any time prior to the end of an
Offering Period, or such other time period as specified by the Committee. 
 (b) Upon withdrawal from this Plan, the accumulated
payroll deductions shall be returned to the withdrawn Participant, without interest (except to the extent required due to local legal requirements outside the United States), and his or her interest in this Plan shall terminate. In the event a
Participant voluntarily elects to withdraw from this Plan, he or she may not resume his or her participation in this Plan during the same Offering Period, but he or she may participate in any Offering Period under this Plan which commences on a date
subsequent to such withdrawal by filing a new authorization for payroll deductions in the same manner as set forth in Section 6 above for initial participation in this Plan. 

  
 - 6 -

 12. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT. Termination of a Participant’s employment for any
reason, including retirement, death, disability, or the failure of a Participant to remain an eligible employee of the Company or of a Participating Corporation, immediately terminates his or her participation in this Plan. In such event,
accumulated payroll deductions credited to the Participant’s account will be returned to him or her or, in the case of his or her death, to his or her legal representative, without interest (except to the extent required due to local legal
requirements outside the United States). For purposes of this Section 12, an employee will not be deemed to have terminated employment or failed to remain in the continuous employ of the Company or of a Participating Corporation in the case of
sick leave, military leave, or any other leave of absence approved by the Company; provided that such leave is for a period of not more than ninety (90) days or reemployment upon the expiration of such leave is guaranteed by contract or
statute. The Company will have sole discretion to determine whether a Participant has terminated employment and the effective date on which the Participant terminated employment, regardless of any notice period or garden leave required under local
law. 
 13. RETURN OF PAYROLL DEDUCTIONS. In the event a Participant’s interest in this Plan is terminated by
withdrawal, termination of employment or otherwise, or in the event this Plan is terminated by the Board, the Company shall deliver to the Participant all accumulated payroll deductions credited to such Participant’s account. No interest shall
accrue on the payroll deductions of a Participant in this Plan (except to the extent required due to local legal requirements outside the United States). 
 14. CAPITAL CHANGES. If the number of outstanding shares is changed by a stock dividend, recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, subdivision, combination, reclassification or similar
change in the capital structure of the Company, without consideration, then the Committee shall adjust the number and class of Common Stock that may be delivered under the Plan, the Purchase Price per share and the number of shares of Common Stock
covered by each option under the Plan which has not yet been exercised, and the numerical limits of Sections 2 and 10 shall be proportionately adjusted, subject to any required action by the Board or the stockholders of the Company and in compliance
with the applicable securities laws; provided that fractions of a share will not be issued. 
 15. NONASSIGNABILITY.
Neither payroll deductions credited to a Participant’s account nor any rights with regard to the exercise of an option or to receive shares under this Plan may be assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of in any way (other than by
will, the laws of descent and distribution or as provided in Section 22 below) by the Participant. Any such attempt at assignment, transfer, pledge or other disposition shall be void and without effect. 

16. USE OF PARTICIPANT FUNDS AND REPORTS. The Company may use all payroll deductions received or held by it under the Plan for any
corporate purpose, and the Company will not be required to segregate Participant payroll deductions (except to the extent required due to local legal requirements outside the United States). Until shares are issued, Participants will only have the
rights of an unsecured creditor unless otherwise required under local law. Each Participant shall receive promptly after the end of each Purchase Period a report of his or her account setting forth the total payroll deductions accumulated, the
number of shares purchased, the per share price thereof and the remaining cash balance, if any, carried forward to the next Purchase Period or Offering Period, as the case may be. 

17. NOTICE OF DISPOSITION. Each U.S. taxpayer Participant shall notify the Company in writing if the Participant disposes of any
of the shares purchased in any Offering Period pursuant to this Plan if such disposition occurs within two (2) years from the Offering Date or within one (1) year from the Purchase Date on which such shares were purchased (the
“Notice Period”). The Company may, at any time during the Notice Period, place a legend or legends on any certificate representing shares acquired pursuant to this Plan requesting the Company’s transfer agent to notify the
Company of any 

  
 - 7 -

 
transfer of the shares. The obligation of the Participant to provide such notice shall continue notwithstanding the placement of any such legend on the certificates. 

18. NO RIGHTS TO CONTINUED EMPLOYMENT. Neither this Plan nor the grant of any option hereunder shall confer any right on any
employee to remain in the employ of the Company or any Participating Corporation, or restrict the right of the Company or any Participating Corporation to terminate such employee’s employment. 

19. EQUAL RIGHTS AND PRIVILEGES. All eligible employees granted an option under this Plan that is intended to meet the Code
Section 423 requirements shall have equal rights and privileges with respect to this Plan or within any separate offering under the Plan so that this Plan qualifies as an “employee stock purchase plan” within the meaning of
Section 423 or any successor provision of the Code and the related regulations. Any provision of this Plan which is inconsistent with Section 423 or any successor provision of the Code, without further act or amendment by the Company, the
Committee or the Board, shall be reformed to comply with the requirements of Section 423. This Section 19 shall take precedence over all other provisions in this Plan. 

20. NOTICES. All notices or other communications by a Participant to the Company under or in connection with this Plan shall be
deemed to have been duly given when received in the form specified by the Company at the location, or by the person, designated by the Company for the receipt thereof. 
 21. TERM; STOCKHOLDER APPROVAL. This Plan will become effective on the Effective Date. This Plan shall be approved by the stockholders of the Company, in any manner permitted by applicable
corporate law, within twelve (12) months before or after the date this Plan is adopted by the Board. No purchase of shares that are subject to such stockholder approval before becoming available under this Plan shall occur prior to stockholder
approval of such shares and the Board or Committee may delay any Purchase Date and postpone the commencement of any Offering Period subsequent to such Purchase Date as deemed necessary or desirable to obtain such approval (provided that if a
Purchase Date would occur more than twenty-four (24) months after commencement of the Offering Period to which it relates, then such Purchase Date shall not occur and instead such Offering Period shall terminate without the purchase of such
shares and Participants in such Offering Period shall be refunded their contributions without interest). This Plan shall continue until the earlier to occur of (a) termination of this Plan by the Board (which termination may be effected by the
Board at any time pursuant to Section 25 below), (b) issuance of all of the shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under this Plan, or (c) the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date under the Plan. 

22. DESIGNATION OF BENEFICIARY. 
 (a) Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, a Participant may file a written designation of a beneficiary who is to receive any cash from the Participant’s account under this Plan in the event
of such Participant’s death prior to a Purchase Date. Such form shall be valid only if it was filed with the Company at the prescribed location before the Participant’s death. 

(b) Such designation of beneficiary may be changed by the Participant at any time by written notice filed with the Company at the
prescribed location before the Participant’s death. In the event of the death of a Participant and in the absence of a beneficiary validly designated under this Plan who is living at the time of such Participant’s death, the Company shall
deliver such cash to the executor or administrator of the estate of the Participant, or if no such executor or administrator has been appointed (to the knowledge of the Company), the Company, in its discretion, may deliver such cash to the spouse
or, if no spouse is known to the Company, then to any one or more dependents or relatives of the 

  
 - 8 -

 
Participant, or if no spouse, dependent or relative is known to the Company, then to such other person as the Company may designate. 

23. CONDITIONS UPON ISSUANCE OF SHARES; LIMITATION ON SALE OF SHARES. Shares shall not be issued with respect to an option unless
the exercise of such option and the issuance and delivery of such shares pursuant thereto shall comply with all applicable provisions of law, domestic or foreign, including, without limitation, the Securities Act of 1933, the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and the requirements of any stock exchange or automated quotation system upon which the shares may then be listed, exchange control restrictions and/or securities law
restrictions outside the United States, and shall be further subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such compliance. Shares may be held in trust or subject to further restrictions as permitted by any subplan. 

24. APPLICABLE LAW. The Plan shall be governed by the substantive laws (excluding the conflict of laws rules) of the State of
Delaware. 
 25. AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION. The Committee, in its sole discretion, may amend, suspend, or terminate the
Plan, or any part thereof, at any time and for any reason. If the Plan is terminated, the Committee, in its discretion, may elect to terminate all outstanding Offering Periods either immediately or upon completion of the purchase of shares of Common
Stock on the next Purchase Date (which may be sooner than originally scheduled, if determined by the Committee in its discretion), or may elect to permit Offering Periods to expire in accordance with their terms (and subject to any adjustment
pursuant to Section 14). If an Offering Period is terminated prior to its previously-scheduled expiration, all amounts then credited to Participants’ accounts for such Offering Period, which have not been used to purchase shares of Common
Stock, shall be returned to those Participants (without interest thereon, except as otherwise required under local laws) as soon as administratively practicable. Further, the Committee will be entitled to change the Purchase Periods and Offering
Periods, limit the frequency and/or number of changes in the amount withheld during an Offering Period, establish the exchange ratio applicable to amounts withheld or contributed in a currency other than U.S. dollars, permit payroll withholding in
excess of the amount designated by a Participant in order to adjust for delays or mistakes in the administration of the Plan, establish reasonable waiting and adjustment periods and/or accounting and crediting procedures to ensure that amounts
applied toward the purchase of Common Stock for each Participant properly correspond with amounts withheld from the Participant’s base salary and other eligible compensation, and establish such other limitations or procedures as the Committee
determines in its sole discretion advisable which are consistent with the Plan. Such actions will not require stockholder approval or the consent of any Participants. However, no amendment shall be made without approval of the stockholders of the
Company (obtained in accordance with Section 21 above) within twelve (12) months of the adoption of such amendment (or earlier if required by Section 21) if such amendment would: (a) increase the number of shares that may be
issued under this Plan; or (b) change the designation of the employees (or class of employees) eligible for participation in this Plan. In addition, in the event the Board or Committee determines that the ongoing operation of the Plan may
result in unfavorable financial accounting consequences, the Board or Committee may, in its discretion and, to the extent necessary or desirable, modify, amend or terminate the Plan to reduce or eliminate such accounting consequences including, but
not limited to: (i) amending the definition of compensation, including with respect to an Offering Period underway at the time; (ii) altering the Purchase Price for any Offering Period including an Offering Period underway at the time of
the change in Purchase Price; (iii) shortening any Offering Period by setting a Purchase Date, including an Offering Period underway at the time of the Committee’s action; (iv) reducing the maximum percentage of compensation a
participant may elect to set aside as payroll deductions; and (v) reducing the maximum number of shares a Participant may purchase during any Offering Period. Such modifications or amendments will not require approval of the stockholders of the
Company or the consent of any Participants.

 26. CORPORATE TRANSACTIONS. In the event of a Corporate Transaction, the Offering
Period for each outstanding right to purchase Common Stock will be shortened by setting a new Purchase Date and will end on the new Purchase Date. The new Purchase Date shall occur on or prior to the consummation of the Corporate Transaction, as
determined by the Board or Committee, and the Plan shall terminate on the consummation of the Corporate Transaction. 
 27.
CODE SECTION 409A; TAX QUALIFICATION. 
 (a) Options granted under the Plan generally are exempt from the application of
Section 409A of the Code. However, options granted to U.S. taxpayers which are not intended to meet the Code Section 423 requirements are intended to be exempt from the application of Section 409A of the Code under the short-term
deferral exception and any ambiguities shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with such intent. Subject to Subsection (b), options granted to U.S. taxpayers outside of the Code Section 423 requirements shall be subject to such terms
and conditions that will permit such options to satisfy the requirements of the short-term deferral exception available under Section 409A of the Code, including the requirement that the shares of Common Stock subject to an option be delivered
within the short-term deferral period. Subject to Subsection (b), in the case of a Participant who would otherwise be subject to Section 409A of the Code, to the extent the Committee determines that an option or the exercise, payment,
settlement or deferral thereof is subject to Section 409A of the Code, the option shall be granted, exercised, paid, settled or deferred in a manner that will comply with Section 409A of the Code, including Treasury regulations and other
interpretive guidance issued thereunder, including without limitation any such regulations or other guidance that may be issued after the Effective Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have no liability to a Participant or any
other party if the option that is intended to be exempt from or compliant with Section 409A of the Code is not so exempt or compliant or for any action taken by the Committee with respect thereto. 

(b) Although the Company may endeavor to (i) qualify an option for favorable tax treatment under the laws of the United States or
jurisdictions outside of the United States or (ii) avoid adverse tax treatment (e.g., under Section 409A of the Code), the Company makes no representation to that effect and expressly disavows any covenant to maintain favorable or
avoid unfavorable tax treatment, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Plan, including Subsection (a). The Company shall be unconstrained in its corporate activities without regard to the potential negative tax impact on Participants
under the Plan.

ENROLL
	  	  ̈        I hereby elect to
participate in the ESPP, effective at the beginning of the next Offering Period. I elect to purchase shares of the Common Stock of the Company pursuant to the ESPP. I understand that the stock certificate(s) for the shares purchased on my behalf
will be issued in street name and deposited directly into my brokerage account. I hereby agree to take all steps, and sign all forms, required to establish an account with the Company’s broker for this purpose.

 
 My participation will continue as long as I remain eligible, unless I withdraw from
the ESPP by filing a new Enrollment/Change Form with the Company. I understand that I must notify the Company of any disposition of shares purchased under the ESPP.

		
	 SECTION 4:
  

ELECT/CHANGE CONTRIBUTION PERCENTAGE
	  	 I hereby authorize the Company to withhold from each of my paychecks such amount as is necessary to equal at the end of the
applicable Offering Period     % of my total cash compensation as would be reported on my W-2 paid during such Offering Period as long as I continue to participate in the ESPP. That amount, plus any accumulated payroll deductions
thus far during the current Purchase Period if this is a change, will be applied to the purchase of shares of the Common Stock pursuant to the ESPP. The percentage must be a whole number (from 1%, up to a maximum of 15%, with respect to
enrollment or an increase in contribution percentage; from 0%, up to a maximum of 14% for a decrease in contribution percentage). 
  

If this is a change to my current enrollment, this represents an  ̈-increase  ̈-decrease to my contribution percentage.
  
 Note:    You may not increase your contribution at any time within a Purchase Period. You may decrease your contribution percentage to a percentage other than 0% only once
within a Purchase Period to be effective during that Purchase Period. A change will become effective as soon as reasonably practicable after the form is received by the Company. An increase in your contribution percentage can only take effect
with the next Offering Period.

		
	 SECTION 5:
  

DISCONTINUE CONTRIBUTIONS
	  	  ̈    I hereby
elect to stop my contributions under the ESPP, effective as soon as reasonably practicable    after this form is received by the Company.

to do so.

(or in the reasonable opinion of the broker’s counsel is likely not to comply) with Rule 144 under the Securities Act, or (e) if the Company determines that sales may not be effected under this 10b5-1 Plan. You acknowledge that this 10b5-1 Plan
is subject to the terms of any policy adopted now or hereafter by the Company governing the adoption of 10b5-1 plans.

 Non-U.S. Addendum 

 NIMBLE STORAGE, INC. 

2013 EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN 
 NON-U.S. ADDENDUM TO ENROLLMENT/CHANGE FORM FOR NON-U.S. PARTICIPANTS 

Section I 
 I hereby elect to participate in the Nimble Storage, Inc. 2013 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”) commencing with the Offering Period specified by my attached Enrollment Form,
and I hereby subscribe to purchase shares of common stock of Nimble Storage, Inc. (the “Company”) in accordance with the provisions of this Subscription Agreement and the ESPP. 

I hereby authorize payroll deductions from each of my paychecks following the commencement of my participation in the ESPP at the rate
specified in my attached Enrollment/Change Form. I understand that these payroll deductions will be accumulated for the purchase of shares of common stock of the Company at the applicable purchase price determined in accordance with the ESPP and
subject to certain restrictions described in the ESPP. I further understand that, except as otherwise set forth in the ESPP, I will automatically purchase shares on the last day of each Purchase Period during an Offering Period unless I withdraw
from participating in the ESPP by withdrawing my election to participate in the ESPP in subsequent enrollment periods or my employment terminates or I become ineligible to participate in the ESPP. I also understand that if my country of residence
does not allow payroll deductions, I will participate in the ESPP by contribution by check (and the same ESPP provisions will apply to me with the different method of contribution). Additional details on these requirements can be found in Section II
of this Non-U.S. Addendum. 
 I understand that, if I participate in an Offering Period, my participation will automatically
continue in the next Offering Period and each Offering that occurs thereafter unless my eligibility or employment terminates or I withdraw. Each Offering Period will be comprised of two Purchase Periods, each of approximately six months in duration.
I understand that I may reduce (but not increase) the rate of my payroll deductions only once during a Purchase Period and that I may increase my rate of payroll deductions only for the next Offering Period prior to the start of the next Offering
Period. 
 I understand that I may withdraw from the ESPP at any time prior to the end of the Offering Period. I further
understand that if I withdraw from the ESPP, I may not again participate in the same Offering Period. If I submit a withdrawal election, the withdrawal will be effective in accordance with the ESPP. I understand that if I have withdrawn from an
Offering Period, I may not again participate in that Offering Period, but may participate in subsequent Offering Periods by submitting a new Enrollment Form. 
 The Company will apply the funds in my account under the ESPP to purchase shares on each Purchase Date during an Offering Period. The shares will be deposited directly in my Company-designated brokerage
account. 
 By enrolling in the ESPP, I acknowledge and agree that: 

(a) Any notice period mandated under local law shall not be treated as service for the purpose of the ESPP. Subject to the foregoing and
the provisions of the ESPP, the Company, in its sole discretion, shall determine whether my service has terminated and the effective date of such termination. 
 (b) The ESPP 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, unless otherwise provided in the
ESPP and this Enrollment/Change Form. 
 (c) The grant of the purchase right is voluntary and occasional and does not create any
contractual or other right to receive future grants, or benefits in lieu of grants, even if purchase rights have been granted repeatedly in the past. 

 (d) My participation in the ESPP shall not create a right to further service with my
employer that has been designated as a participant in the ESPP (a “Participating Corporation”) and shall not interfere with the ability of any Participating Corporation to terminate my service at any time, with or without
cause, insofar as permitted under local law. 
 (e) I am voluntarily participating in the ESPP. 

(f) The purchase right and resulting shares, if any, are an extraordinary item that does not constitute compensation of any kind for
service of any kind rendered to any Participating Corporation, and which is outside the scope of my employment contract, if any. 
 (g) The purchase right is not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purpose, including, but not limited to, calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy,
end-of-service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement benefits or similar payments. 
 (h) In the event
that I am not an employee of the Company or a Participating Corporation, the purchase right will not be interpreted to form an employment contract or relationship with the Company; and furthermore the purchase right will not be interpreted to form
an employment contract with any other Participating Corporation. 
 (i) The future value of the underlying shares is unknown and
cannot be predicted with certainty. The value of those shares may increase or decrease. 
 (j) In consideration of the grant of
a purchase right, no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from termination of the purchase right or diminution in value of the purchase right or shares resulting from termination of my service (for any reason whether or not in

 Regardless of any action the Company or my employer (the “Employer”) takes with
respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), I acknowledge and agree that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related
Items legally due by me is and remains my responsibility and that the Company and/or the Employer (i) make no representations nor undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of this grant of
purchase rights, including the grant and subsequent delivery of shares or the subsequent sale of any shares acquired pursuant to such purchase rights and receipt of any dividends (if any) and (ii) do not commit to structure the terms or any
aspect of this grant to reduce or eliminate my liability for Tax-Related Items. I shall pay the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold as a result of my participation in
the ESPP or my receipt of purchase rights that cannot be satisfied by the means described below. Further, if I am subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction, I acknowledge that the Company and/or Employer (or former Employer, as applicable) may be
required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction. The Company may refuse to deliver the shares if I fail to comply with my obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items. 

Prior to the taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, I shall pay, or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company or
to the Employer (in their sole discretion) to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, I authorize the Company and Employer to withhold all applicable Tax-Related Items legally payable by me by withholding from my wages or other cash
compensation paid by the Company and/or Employer. 
 I acknowledge and understand that I should consult a tax adviser regarding
my tax obligations under the ESPP. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Non-U.S. Addendum or the Enrollment/Change
Form to the contrary, the purchase rights shall be subject to the specific terms and conditions, if any, set forth in Section II of this Non-U.S. Addendum which are applicable to my country of residence, the provisions of which are incorporated in
and constitute part of this Enrollment/Change Form. Moreover, if I relocate to one of the countries included in Section II of this Non-U.S. Addendum, the specific terms and conditions applicable to such country will apply to my purchase rights 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 ESPP or this Enrollment/Change Form. 

This Non-U.S. Addendum and Enrollment/Change Form shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to
principles of conflicts of law. 
 I acknowledge that the Company has the right, exercisable in its sole discretion, to amend,
suspend or terminate the ESPP at any time without my consent to comply with any applicable law, regulation or rule. Further, I acknowledge that the Company may amend or terminate my purchase rights without my consent to avoid unfavorable financial
accounting consequences to the Company, as described in the ESPP. 
 I am familiar with the provisions of the ESPP and hereby
agree to participate in the ESPP subject to all of the provisions thereof. I understand that the effectiveness of this Non-U.S. Addendum and Enrollment/Change Form is dependent upon my eligibility to participate in the ESPP. Furthermore, I hereby

ENROLLMENT CONFIRMED
	  	 I understand that my enrollment in the ESPP is effective at the beginning of the Offering Period and as a result of that
enrollment I am electing to purchase shares of the Common Stock of the Company pursuant to the ESPP. I understand that the stock certificate(s) for the shares purchased on my behalf will be issued in street name and deposited directly into my
brokerage account. I hereby agree to take all steps, and sign all forms, required to establish an account with the Company’s broker for this purpose.
  

My participation will continue as long as I remain eligible, unless I withdraw from the ESPP by filing a new Enrollment/Change Form with the Company. I
understand that I must notify the Company of any disposition of shares purchased under the ESPP.

		
	 SECTION 4:
  

ELECT / CHANGE CONTRIBUTION PERCENTAGE
	  	 I hereby authorize the Company to withhold from each of my paychecks such amount as is necessary to equal at the end of the
applicable Offering Period     % of my total cash compensation paid during such Offering Period as long as I continue to participate in the ESPP. That amount, plus any accumulated payroll deductions thus far during the current
Purchase Period if this is a change, will be applied to the purchase of shares of the Common Stock pursuant to the ESPP. The percentage must be a whole number (from 1%, up to a maximum of 15%, with respect to enrollment or an increase in
contribution percentage; from 0%, up to a maximum of 14% for a decrease in contribution percentage).
  
 If this is a change to my current enrollment, this represents an  ̈-increase  ̈-decrease to my contribution
percentage.
  

Note:     You may not increase your contribution at any time within a Purchase
Period. You may decrease your contribution percentage to a percentage other than 0% only once within a Purchase Period to be effective during that Purchase Period. A change will become effective as soon as reasonably practicable after the form is
received by the Company. An increase in your contribution percentage can only take effect with the next Offering Period.

DISCONTINUE CONTRIBUTIONS

stop my contributions under the ESPP, effective as soon as reasonably practicable  after this form is received by the Company.

enrollment form to do so.

					
		
	 SECTION 6:
  

AUTOMATIC SALE ON PURCHASE DATE
	  	  ̈    I hereby authorize the Company’s broker to
automatically sell all shares acquired by me under the ESPP each Purchase Date.
  
 You hereby authorize the Company to arrange a mandatory sale through the Company’s broker (on your behalf and you hereby authorize such sales by this authorization) of all shares acquired by you
under the ESPP with such sales to be effected on or about each Purchase Date until you revoke this authorization. You acknowledge that the broker is under no obligation to arrange for such sale at any particular price. You acknowledge that you will
be responsible for all brokerage fees and other costs of sale, and you agree to indemnify and hold the Company harmless from any losses, costs, damages, or expenses relating to any such sale.

 
 You acknowledge that the instruction to the broker to sell is intended to comply with
the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c)(1)(i)(B) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and to be interpreted to comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c)(1) under the Exchange Act (a “10b5-1 Plan”), in compliance with the
Company’s Insider Trading Policy and 10b5-1 Trading Plan Policy, if applicable. You acknowledge that you are not aware of any material, nonpublic information with respect to the Company or any securities of the Company as of the date of this
Agreement, or that as of the date any sales are effected pursuant to the 10b5-1 Plan you will not effect such sales on the basis of material nonpublic information about the securities or the Company of which you were aware at the time you entered
into this Agreement. You hereby appoint the Company as your agent and attorney-in-fact to instruct the broker regarding sales under this 10b5-1 Plan. You acknowledge that it may not be possible to sell shares during the term of this 10b5-1 Plan due
to (a) a legal or contractual restriction applicable to you or to the broker, (b) a market disruption, (c) rules governing order execution priority on the New York Stock Exchange, (d) a sale effected pursuant to this 10b5-1 Plan that fails to comply
(or in the reasonable opinion of the broker’s counsel is likely not to comply) with Rule 144 under the Securities Act, or (e) if the Company determines that sales may not be effected under this 10b5-1 Plan. You acknowledge that this 10b5-1 Plan
is subject to the terms of any policy adopted now or hereafter by the Company governing the adoption of 10b5-1 plans.

 Non-U.S. Addendum 

 NIMBLE STORAGE, INC. 

2013 EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN 
 NON-U.S. ADDENDUM TO ENROLLMENT/CHANGE FORM FOR NON-U.S. PARTICIPANTS 

Section I 
 I hereby elect to participate in the Nimble Storage, Inc. 2013 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”) commencing with the Offering Period specified by my attached Enrollment Form,
and I hereby subscribe to purchase shares of common stock of Nimble Storage, Inc. (the “Company”) in accordance with the provisions of this Subscription Agreement and the ESPP. 

I hereby authorize payroll deductions from each of my paychecks following the commencement of my participation in the ESPP at the rate
specified in my attached Enrollment/Change Form. I understand that these payroll deductions will be accumulated for the purchase of shares of common stock of the Company at the applicable purchase price determined in accordance with the ESPP and
subject to certain restrictions described in the ESPP. I further understand that, except as otherwise set forth in the ESPP, I will automatically purchase shares on the last day of each Purchase Period during an Offering Period unless I withdraw
from participating in the ESPP by withdrawing my election to participate in the ESPP in subsequent enrollment periods or my employment terminates or I become ineligible to participate in the ESPP. I also understand that if my country of residence
does not allow payroll deductions, I will participate in the ESPP by contribution by check (and the same ESPP provisions will apply to me with the different method of contribution). Additional details on these requirements can be found in Section II
of this Non-U.S. Addendum. 
 I understand that, if I participate in an Offering Period, my participation will automatically
continue in the next Offering Period and each Offering that occurs thereafter unless my eligibility or employment terminates or I withdraw. Each Offering Period will be comprised of two Purchase Periods, each of approximately six months in duration.
I understand that I may reduce (but not increase) the rate of my payroll deductions only once during a Purchase Period and that I may increase my rate of payroll deductions only for the next Offering Period prior to the start of the next Offering
Period. 
 I understand that I may withdraw from the ESPP at any time prior to the end of the Offering Period. I further
understand that if I withdraw from the ESPP, I may not again participate in the same Offering Period. If I submit a withdrawal election, the withdrawal will be effective in accordance with the ESPP. I understand that if I have withdrawn from an
Offering Period, I may not again participate in that Offering Period, but may participate in subsequent Offering Periods by submitting a new Enrollment Form. 
 The Company will apply the funds in my account under the ESPP to purchase shares on each Purchase Date during an Offering Period. The shares will be deposited directly in my Company-designated brokerage
account. 
 By enrolling in the ESPP, I acknowledge and agree that: 

(a) Any notice period mandated under local law shall not be treated as service for the purpose of the ESPP. Subject to the foregoing and
the provisions of the ESPP, the Company, in its sole discretion, shall determine whether my service has terminated and the effective date of such termination. 
 (b) The ESPP 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, unless otherwise provided in the
ESPP and this Enrollment/Change Form. 
 (c) The grant of the purchase right is voluntary and occasional and does not create any
contractual or other right to receive future grants, or benefits in lieu of grants, even if purchase rights have been granted repeatedly in the past. 

 (d) My participation in the ESPP shall not create a right to further service with my
employer that has been designated as a participant in the ESPP (a “Participating Corporation”) and shall not interfere with the ability of any Participating Corporation to terminate my service at any time, with or without
cause, insofar as permitted under local law. 
 (e) I am voluntarily participating in the ESPP. 

(f) The purchase right and resulting shares, if any, are an extraordinary item that does not constitute compensation of any kind for
service of any kind rendered to any Participating Corporation, and which is outside the scope of my employment contract, if any. 
 (g) The purchase right is not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purpose, including, but not limited to, calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy,
end-of-service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement benefits or similar payments. 
 (h) In the event
that I am not an employee of the Company or a Participating Corporation, the purchase right will not be interpreted to form an employment contract or relationship with the Company; and furthermore the purchase right will not be interpreted to form
an employment contract with any other Participating Corporation. 
 (i) The future value of the underlying shares is unknown and
cannot be predicted with certainty. The value of those shares may increase or decrease. 
 (j) In consideration of the grant of
a purchase right, no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from termination of the purchase right or diminution in value of the purchase right or shares resulting from termination of my service (for any reason whether or not in
breach of local law) and I irrevocably release the Company and each other Participating Corporation from any such claim that may arise. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen
then, by submitting this Enrollment/Change Form, I shall be deemed irrevocably to have waived my entitlement to pursue such a claim. 
 (k) My payroll account under the ESPP will be denominated in U.S. dollars, and I bear the risk of currency fluctuations in connection with the exchange of contributions into my payroll account under the
ESPP from the currency in which my base salary is paid into U.S. dollars and in connection with the exchange of distributions under the ESPP. 
 I HEREBY EXPLICITLY AND UNAMBIGUOUSLY CONSENT TO THE COLLECTION,
USE AND TRANSFER, IN ELECTRONIC OR OTHER FORM, OF MY PERSONAL DATA
AS DESCRIBED IN THIS DOCUMENT BY AND AMONG THE COMPANY AND THE
PARTICIPATING CORPORATION (THE “PARTICIPATING CORPORATION GROUP”) FOR THE EXCLUSIVE
PURPOSE OF IMPLEMENTING, ADMINISTERING AND MANAGING MY PARTICIPATION IN THE ESPP. 

I UNDERSTAND THAT THE PARTICIPATING CORPORATION
GROUP HOLDS CERTAIN PERSONAL INFORMATION ABOUT ME, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED

 Regardless of any action the Company or my employer (the “Employer”) takes with
respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), I acknowledge and agree that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related
Items legally due by me is and remains my responsibility and that the Company and/or the Employer (i) make no representations nor undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of this grant of
purchase rights, including the grant and subsequent delivery of shares or the subsequent sale of any shares acquired pursuant to such purchase rights and receipt of any dividends (if any) and (ii) do not commit to structure the terms or any
aspect of this grant to reduce or eliminate my liability for Tax-Related Items. I shall pay the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold as a result of my participation in
the ESPP or my receipt of purchase rights that cannot be satisfied by the means described below. Further, if I am subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction, I acknowledge that the Company and/or Employer (or former Employer, as applicable) may be
required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction. The Company may refuse to deliver the shares if I fail to comply with my obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items. 

Prior to the taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, I shall pay, or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company or
to the Employer (in their sole discretion) to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, I authorize the Company and Employer to withhold all applicable Tax-Related Items legally payable by me by withholding from my wages or other cash
compensation paid by the Company and/or Employer. 
 I acknowledge and understand that I should consult a tax adviser regarding
my tax obligations under the ESPP. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Non-U.S. Addendum or the Enrollment/Change
Form to the contrary, the purchase rights shall be subject to the specific terms and conditions, if any, set forth in Section II of this Non-U.S. Addendum which are applicable to my country of residence, the provisions of which are incorporated in
and constitute part of this Enrollment/Change Form. Moreover, if I relocate to one of the countries included in Section II of this Non-U.S. Addendum, the specific terms and conditions applicable to such country will apply to my purchase rights 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 ESPP or this Enrollment/Change Form. 

This Non-U.S. Addendum and Enrollment/Change Form shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to
principles of conflicts of law. 
 I acknowledge that the Company has the right, exercisable in its sole discretion, to amend,
suspend or terminate the ESPP at any time without my consent to comply with any applicable law, regulation or rule. Further, I acknowledge that the Company may amend or terminate my purchase rights without my consent to avoid unfavorable financial
accounting consequences to the Company, as described in the ESPP. 
 I am familiar with the provisions of the ESPP and hereby
agree to participate in the ESPP subject to all of the provisions thereof. I understand that the effectiveness of this Non-U.S. Addendum and Enrollment/Change Form is dependent upon my eligibility to participate in the ESPP. Furthermore, I hereby
consent to receive ESPP documents by electronic delivery. Electronic delivery may include the delivery of a link to a Company intranet or 

 
the internet site of a third party involved in administering the ESPP, the delivery of documents via e-mail or such other delivery determined at the Company’s discretion. I acknowledge that
I may receive from the Company a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically at no cost if I contact the Company by telephone, through a postal service or electronic mail at [insert email]. I further acknowledge that I will be
provided with a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically if electronic delivery fails; similarly, I understand that I must provide on request to the Company or any designated third party a paper copy of any documents delivered
electronically if electronic delivery fails. Also, I understand that my consent may be revoked or changed, including any change in the electronic mail address to which documents are delivered (if I have provided an electronic mail address), at any
