 Introduction 

ASML Holding N.V. (“the Company”) wishes to operate the Board of Management Umbrella Share Plan for the purposes of recognising and rewarding Members
of the Board of Management for their contributions to the success of the Company, creating an ownership culture, aligning their interests to those of the Company’s shareholders, strengthening their long-term commitment to the Company and
providing them with the opportunity to become shareholders of the Company. The main purpose of the grants of Equity Incentives under the Board of Management Umbrella Share Plan is to continue to attract, reward and retain qualified and experienced

Incentives may be granted to Members of the Board of Management from time to time. The Board of Management Umbrella Share Plan contains (i) this BoM Master Plan, outlining the general terms and conditions that apply to different types of Equity

Article 7 – Grant Notifications 
  

	7.1	Subject to Article 21.3, each Grant shall be evidenced by a written Grant Notification concluded between the Member of the Board of Management and the Company, setting forth the terms and conditions pertaining to such

 Article 9 – Termination 
  

	9.1	Death – In case of the decease of a Participant, any of his Equity Incentives that have not yet Vested at the date of his decease shall Vest in full immediately upon such date and will be settled in
cash at the Fair Market Value of the Company Share at such date. The Vesting requirement relating to the Performance Condition shall not be applied and the Equity Incentive shall be deemed to Vest. The cash proceeds of such settlement shall be paid,
subject to Article 14, to his legal personal representatives (or, if appropriate, his designated beneficiary or beneficiaries and in the event of there being no designated beneficiary or beneficiaries, his estate) as soon as practically possible
following the date of his decease. 

  

	9.2	Total and Permanent Disability, Retirement, or Business Conditions – If a Participant ceases to be employed by the Company or ceases to provide similar management services under the Agreement:

  

	 	(i)	by reason of Total and Permanent Disability; or 

  

	 	(ii)	by reason of Retirement; or 

  

	 	(iii)	by virtue of termination of employment by the Company due to or following from Business Conditions as determined by the Supervisory Board in their absolute discretion; 

then any of his Equity Incentives that have not yet Vested at such date of termination of employment or services shall continue to Vest upon
the Vesting Date stated in the Grant Notification and/or all or any of his Performance Shares shall continue to Vest upon the Vesting Date stated in the Grant Notification. 
  

	9.3	Fraud, gross negligence, wilful misconduct – If a Participant is dismissed in his capacity as Member of the Board of Management and is given notice to terminate the Agreement in circumstances
involving fraud, gross negligence or wilful misconduct, all of his Equity Incentives shall lapse on the date that such notice of termination of employment or services is given. In addition, the Participant is required to sell any Company Shares
Delivered under the Board of Management Umbrella Share Plan that are subject to Transfer Restrictions immediately prior to terminating the Agreement, to the Company or a person indicated by it for a price equal to the Fair Market Value of the
Company Share at the date that such notice of termination of employment or similar management services is given, multiplied by the number of Company Shares acquired. 

 

	9.4	Completion of term of appointment – Upon completion of the term of appointment as Member of the Board of Management without being nominated for re-appointment, all unvested Performance Shares shall
remain outstanding and shall Vest in accordance with the Vesting requirements relating to the Performance Conditions initially set at the Grant Date. 

  

	9.5	Other reasons for termination in respect of Equity Incentives – If a Participant ceases to be employed by the Company or ceases to provide similar management services under the Agreement for any
reason other than those listed in Articles 9.1, 9.2, 9.3 and 9.4, the right to receive any Performance Shares that have not Vested prior to or on the date of such termination of employment or similar management services shall lapse with immediate
effect and become null and void. All Grants that have thus become null and void will do so without Participants being entitled to any compensation in this respect from the Company. 

 

	9.6	 Transfer Restrictions during the Holding Period – If a Participant ceases to be employed by the Company or ceases to provide
similar management services under the Agreement and owns Company Shares acquired through the Vesting of Performance Shares which are subject to Transfer Restrictions during a Holding Period, such Company Shares will not lapse upon such termination
of employment or 

  
 10 of 15 

	 	
similar management services, but such Company Shares will remain subject to the Transfer Restrictions as set out in the Grant Notification. In case of the decease of a Participant in accordance
with Article 9.1, Company Shares acquired through the Vesting of Performance Shares which are subject to Transfer Restrictions will no longer be subject to the Transfer Restrictions unless the Grant Notification explicitly determines otherwise.

 Article 10 – Variation of Share capital 
  

	10.1	The number of Equity Incentives subject to a Grant or the value of Equity Incentives may be adjusted in the event of a change of the Company’s share capital that affects the value of Grants made under the Board of
Management Umbrella Share Plan. Such adjustments will be made by the Company in a manner the Company considers to be fair and reasonable, without any obligation for the Company to make such adjustment. The Company is under no obligation to
compensate Participants in the event of such an adjustment. 

  

	10.2	Events that may affect the share capital of the Company are: (i) a stock split, (ii) a reverse stock split, (iii) any other capitalisation issue, rights issue or rights offer or (iv) any reduction,
sub-division, consolidation or other change in the share capital of the Company. 

  

	10.3	Any adjustments made based on this Article 10 may upon request of the Supervisory Board be reviewed by an independent expert on the basis of the principles of reasonableness and fairness. Notwithstanding the provisions
of this Article 10, the decision made by the Company as to whether or not such adjustments are to be made shall be conclusive and binding. The Participant will be notified in writing as soon as possible on the adjustments made to their Equity
Incentives. 

 Article 11 – Dissolution or Liquidation 

In the event of a proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company, unvested Equity Incentives shall lapse immediately prior to the dissolution or
liquidation taking place. However the Supervisory Board is authorised to allow for the immediate Vesting and/or mandatory sale of Vested Equity Incentives immediately preceding the moment the dissolution or liquidating taking place. 

Article 12 – Status of Board of Management Umbrella Share Plan and Grants 

 

	12.1	The Board of Management Umbrella Share Plan is not part of the Participant’s employment agreement (or similar management services agreement) with the Company, and shall not be construed to give any Participant the
right to remain in the employ of or to provide services to the Company. 

  

	12.2	A Grant made under this Plan cannot be considered a guarantee to the Participant that the employment (or similar management services arrangement) under the Agreement will continue. 

 

	12.3	Any benefits derived by the Participant under this Plan shall not be taken into account for the purposes of determining the Participant’s contribution or entitlement to benefits under any pension arrangement or for
the purposes of determining any other claim for compensation the Participant may have against the Company. 

  
 11 of 15 

	12.4	Where the employment of the Participant terminates for whatever reason, the Participant shall not be entitled to any compensation or damages including damages following unfair dismissal, any other form of breach of
contract or any claim for compensation for the loss of employment insofar as such compensation or damages arise or may arise from the Participant ceasing to have rights under, or ceasing to be entitled to receive Equity Incentives under this Board
of Management Umbrella Share Plan as a result of such termination. The Plan shall not at any time affect the rights of the Company to terminate such Participant’s status as an employee or similar management services provider under the
Agreement, whether with or without cause. 

  

	12.5	The Grant of an Equity Incentive shall not entitle the Participant to receive any other Grant under the Board of Management Umbrella Share Plan or to participate in any other plan operated by the Company now or in
future. The Grant of an Equity Incentive shall not preclude the Participant from receiving any other Grant or other grant under the Board of Management Umbrella Share Plan or from participating in any other plan operated by the Company now or in
future. 

  

	12.6	The Plan is intended to constitute an unfunded plan for incentive compensation. Prior to the Delivery of Company Shares, cash or other form of payment in connection with an Equity Incentive, nothing contained herein
shall give any Participant any rights that are greater than those of a general unsecured creditor of the Company. 

 Article 13 –
Shareholder rights 
  

	13.1	Company Shares Delivered pursuant to the Board of Management Umbrella Share Plan will be Delivered without the benefit of any rights (including shareholder rights) attaching thereto preceding the date of Vesting. This
also includes Participants having no right to receive dividends or exercise voting rights with respect to Equity Incentives granted under the Board of Management Umbrella Share Plan that have not Vested. 

 

	13.2	Company Shares Delivered shall be identical and rank pari passu in all respects with the shares in the same class then in issue. 

Article 14 – Taxes and Social Security 
  

	14.1	Any personal taxes that result from participation in the Board of Management Umbrella Share Plan or from any amendment to the terms and condition of this Plan shall be entirely for the account of the Participant.
Personal taxes may include, but are not limited to, levies such as wage tax, income tax, net wealth tax, capital gains tax, share transfer tax, employee social security and social insurance including mandatory health insurance contributions.

  

	14.2	Each Participant is ultimately responsible for reporting taxable income in his annual personal income tax return. Furthermore, any consequences of Participation in the Board of Management Umbrella Share Plan for among
others pension arrangements, early retirement arrangements, social benefits or income level dependent regulations, such as subsidies and allowances, are entirely for the account of the Participant. 

  
 12 of 15 

	14.3	It shall be a condition pursuant to the obligation of the Company, to issue or to procure the Delivery of Company Shares to a Participant and the Participant (or in the event of his decease, such person, persons or
estate mentioned in Article 9.1) shall permit the Company to account for an amount equal to any wage or income tax, employee’s social security contributions liability and any other liabilities for which the Company has an obligation to withhold
and account. Consequently, they have the right to make withholdings from the Participant’s salary or variable compensation (e.g. bonus payments, holiday allowance) to meet any withholding obligations that result from the participation in the
Board of Management Umbrella Share Plan. 

  

	14.4	In order to meet its obligations, the Participant may be given the possibility to sell sufficient Company Shares to meet his liabilities under Article 14.1 above, unless the relevant Grant Notification determines
otherwise. To that effect, the Participant may permit the Company, to retain from the sale proceeds an amount equal to such liability and any balance amount will be paid to the Participant. 

 

	14.5	Whenever Company Shares are to be Delivered or issued under the Plan, the Company may require the Participant to remit to the Company an amount sufficient to satisfy all withholding tax requirements, as mentioned in
this Article 14.1, prior to the Delivery of the Company Shares, including, but not limited to, the withholding of wage tax, income tax and employee social security contributions. 

 

	14.6	The Board of Management Umbrella Shares Plan is governed by the applicable tax and social security legislation and regulations prevailing at the Effective Date. If any tax and/or social security legislation or
regulations are amended at any time after the Effective Date and any tax or employee social security levies become payable, the costs and risks related thereto shall be borne by the Participant. 

 

	14.7	For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of Article 14.3 through 14.5 shall apply to a Participant’s liabilities that may arise on the (i) Grant, Vesting and/or exercise of an Equity Incentives; and
(ii) the Vesting and/or Delivery of his Equity Incentive Company Share Grants in more than one jurisdiction. 

  

	14.8	Except as described in this Article 14, any tax, employee’s social security contributions or similar liabilities arising out of the disposal of Shares shall be the responsibility of the Participant alone.

 Article 15 – Costs 
  

	15.1	The costs associated with the sale and retention of Company Shares shall be borne by the Participant. 

  

	15.2	The costs relating to the issue and/or acquisition of Company Shares by the Company to meet its obligations under the Board of Management Umbrella Share Plan shall be payable by the Company. 

Article 16 – Insider Trading

		Shares and Options Purchase Plan		Document name		:   Purchase Plan
			Modification date  		:   September 2014
			Status		:   Under Change Control

  

			
			Article 2 — General
		
			Option Holder and/or Share Holder is aware of the fact that participation is an investment and that the value of the Shares may rise or fall, and that ASML does not guarantee that Option Holder and/or Share Holder will derive any
benefit from participating in the Plan.
		
			Nothing in these Conditions or related documents by themselves or in combination shall be construed as an expressed or implied contract of employment or a guarantee of continued future employment.
		
			In case of a conflict between these Conditions and the Application Form, these Conditions will supersede the Application Form.
		
			Article 3 — Allocation of Options and Shares
		
	3.1		ASML shall determine not later than November, prior to the first Grant Date of the following year, the maximum aggregate value of the Option Purchase Price and the Share Purchase Price that may be used for the purchase of Options
and/or Shares under this Plan. This aggregate value will be set as a percentage (which percentage may, for the avoidance of doubt, also be set at nil percent) of Annual Gross Base Salary at the discretion of the Board of Management. The Option
Purchase Price and Share Purchase Price is paid from Option Holder and/or Share Holder’s net periodic pay;
		
	3.2		The number of Options and/or Shares to be Allocated is dependent on the requested amount as mentioned on the Application Form divided by the Option Purchase Price and/or Share Purchase Price in euro on the Grant Date. Where the
calculation results in fractional Options or Shares the actual number of Options and/or Shares will be rounded down to the nearest whole number. If the Total Purchase Price exceeds the net periodic pay of the Employee in the month preceding the Date
of Grant, the Total Purchase Price will be reduced to a maximum amount that is equal to the net periodic pay of the Employee in that month and, therefore, the number of Options and/or Shares that are Allocated to the Employee are reduced as deemed
fair by ASML.
		
	3.3		When submitting a request for the Allocation of Options and/or Shares Employee shall owe Employer a net amount, taking into account article 3.2, in euro converted on the Grant Date into local currency applicable to Employee equal to
the Option Purchase Price multiplied by the number of Options Allocated on the Grant Date and/or equal to the Share Purchase Price multiplied by the number of Shares Allocated on the Grant Date.
		
	3.4		Per Option and/or Share purchased, Employee shall pay to ASML the Total Purchase Price as determined on the Grant Date in euro converted on the Grant Date to the local currency applicable to Employee. The Total Purchase Price is
deductible from the net pay of the Employee in the month preceding the Grant Date;

			Modification date  		:   September 2014
			Status		:   Under Change Control

  

			
		
	3.5		In the event of termination of employment, Employee, by submitting the Application Form, authorizes ASML to deduct any balance remaining from the amount determined in Article 3.4 from any final net payroll payment. In the event that
such amount is insufficient to cover the remaining balance or no net periodic pay is made to the Employee in the month preceding the Grant Date, the Employee will receive less Options and/or Shares and any outstanding balance shall be paid by ASML
to the Employee within one month after the Grant Date. ASML will determine which payment method shall be used;
		
	3.6		To be eligible for the Allocation of Options or Shares a fully completed and signed Application Form must have been duly received by the ‘employee benefits administration department’ in Veldhoven, The
Netherlands;
		
	3.7		Options and/or Shares shall be Allocated on the basis of the Application Form taking into account the maximum number of Options and/or Shares available.
		
	3.8		All euro denominated amounts mentioned in this Article shall be calculated by using the euro – local currency exchange rate fixing applicable to Employee on the Grant Date as performed by the European Central Bank at or around
14.00 hours C.E.T.
		
			Article 4 — Acceptance and Release of the Options and/or Shares
		
	4.1		By submitting the Application Form Employee expresses his wish to participate in the Plan and accepts (i) all of the Options and/or Shares that are Allocated, and (ii) the Conditions of this Plan;
		
	4.2		Employee shall be informed within a reasonable term in writing of the number of Options and/or Shares Allocated;
		
	4.3		The Options and/or Shares Allocated to the Employees will be Released by ASML as soon as practicable following the Grant Date to a share account opened by ASML in the name of the Employee. A Release of Options and/or Shares shall
only be made if the Employee has fulfilled all of his or her obligations towards the Company or any Group Company under this Plan.
		
	4.4		The Release is subject to the ASML Rules on Insider Trading and applicable mandatory provisions regarding insider trading, if any, as amended from time to time.
		
	4.5		The Participant shall not be entitled to any compensation of damages insofar as such damages arise or may arise from a delayed Release under this Article 4.

around 14.00 hours C.E.T.
		
			Article 7 — Transferability of the Option
		
	7.1		The Option is strictly non-transferable and may not be encumbered with a pledge nor are Option Holders allowed to enter into any other act (including for the avoidance of doubt entering into any form of hedging transactions) the
economic effect of which would be the same as a transfer or encumbrance of an Option or otherwise substantially alter the economic interest in the Option;
		
	7.2		Devolution by last will or hereditary succession pursuant to the statutory provisions shall, however, not vitiate the Option;
		
	7.3		Option Holder shall not be permitted to conclude any transaction in relation to the Options on (i) NYSE Euronext Amsterdam, The Netherlands, (ii) NASDAQ, New York, United States of America, or (iii) any other stock
exchange;
