 Exhibit 10.25 
 EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 
 THIS AGREEMENT is made as of December 31, 2008 by and between Bradley S. Powell
(“Employee”) and Expeditors International of Washington, Inc., a Washington corporation (“Employer”). In consideration of the mutual covenants and conditions set forth herein, the parties hereby agree as follows: 
 1. Employment. 
 (a) In connection with
the election of Employee to the office of Chief Financial Officer by action of the Board of Directors on November 3, 2008 and for other good and lawful consideration as set forth herein, Employee’s compensation and terms of employment
shall be as set forth in this Agreement. 
 (b) Employee agrees to render services to the best of his ability on a full-time basis during the
term of this Agreement, and shall perform such duties as the Board of Directors of Employer or Employee’s immediate supervisor shall from time to time direct. 
 2. Term. Subject to Employer’s right to terminate Employee’s employment at the pleasure of its Board of Directors as set forth in Paragraph 6 below, this Agreement shall commence on the date first set
forth above and end with the date of the next annual meeting of the Board of Directors (the “Initial Term”). The term of this Agreement shall be automatically extended for additional twelve (12) month terms in the event that the
Employee shall be elected or re-elected as an executive officer at a subsequent annual meeting of the Board of Directors. This Agreement shall not be automatically extended and shall expire in the event that either party hereto shall have given
written notice to the other at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Initial Term, or any subsequent term, of intent to terminate this Agreement. 
 3. Compensation. For all services rendered by Employee under this Agreement, Employee shall receive base salary and incentive compensation, as established from time to time by the Compensation Committee of the
Board of Directors. Employee’s title and other benefits will be subject to reasonable adjustment by action of Employer’s Board of Directors. 
 4. Benefits. During the term of employment hereunder, Employee shall be entitled to participate fully in any policies which Employer may adopt generally for employees including policies for vacation, holidays,
paid sick leave, group medical, life insurance and other employee benefits. Employer shall pay or reimburse Employee for all reasonable travel and other expenses incurred or paid by Employee in connection with the performance of services under this
Agreement upon presentation of expense vouchers and such other supporting information as Employer may from time to time reasonably request. 
 5. Warranties. Employee represents to Employer that Employee is free to enter into this Agreement and that Employee has no commitment, arrangement or understanding to or with any third party which restrains or is in conflict with
this Agreement which would operate to prevent Employee from performing the services which Employee has agreed to provide. 

 6. Termination. 
 (a) For Cause. Employer may terminate Employee’s employment hereunder upon two (2) days prior written notice to Employee for cause, and the salary and all other compensation referred to above shall
cease upon the effective date of any such termination for cause. As used herein, the term “cause” shall mean any act of Employee, which in the reasonable judgment of Employer’s Board of Directors, constitutes dishonesty, larceny,
fraud, deceit, gross negligence, a crime involving moral turpitude, willful misrepresentation to shareholders, directors or officers, or a material breach of this Agreement. In the event that employment is terminated for cause and upon two
(2) days prior written notice, Employer may elect to extend the provisions of Paragraph 8 for a period of six (6) months from the effective date of the termination for cause in exchange for a lump sum payment to the Employee. Such lump sum
payment shall be calculated as six (6) times Employee’s latest monthly Base Salary, and will be made no later than March 15 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Employee makes such election. Base Salary as
used herein shall exclude any incentive or bonus compensation, any monthly automobile allowance, and any other benefit or reimbursement. 
 (b) Without Cause. Employer may terminate Employee’s employment at any time upon
fifteen (15) days prior written notice and without cause; provided, that Employee shall receive as his sole remedy for such termination, a lump sum payment equal to one half ( 1/2) of the Total Cash Compensation paid to the Employee in the preceding twelve (12) month period and the provisions of Paragraph 8 shall be extended for a period of six (6) months
from the effective date of the termination without cause. Total Cash Compensation as used herein includes Base Salary, any incentive or bonus compensation, and any monthly automobile allowance, but shall exclude any other benefit or expense
reimbursement. The payment will be paid to the Employee and will be made no later than March 15 of the calendar year following the calendar of the Employee’s termination of employment. 
 (c) Resignation. In the event that Employee shall resign or otherwise refuse to continue to provide services to the Employer, the salary and all
other compensation referred to above shall cease. Within thirty (30) days of the effective date of the resignation, Employer may give Employee written notice of intent to extend the provisions of Paragraph 8 for a period of six (6) months
from the effective date of the resignation in exchange for a lump sum payment to the Employee. Such lump sum payment shall be calculated as six (6) times Employee’s latest monthly Base Salary, and will be made no later than March 15
of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Employer makes such election. Provided however, that the Employee shall have the option to reject any extension of the provisions of Paragraph 8 in the event that the resignation shall
have been tendered anytime during the period beginning with a public announcement of a pending Change in Control Event (as defined below) and ending one year following the effective date of the completed transaction or on the date of the public
announcement of the termination of the proposed transaction. The Employee shall make a timely rejection of the extension of the provisions of Paragraph 8 by returning the lump sum payment and sending written notice of rejection within fourteen days
of receipt. For purposes of this Agreement, “Change in Control Event” shall mean either one of the following: (i) when any “person,” as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (other than the Employer, a subsidiary thereof or an employee benefit plan of 

  

 -2- 

 
the Employer, including any trustee of such plan acting as trustee) becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange
Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Employer representing fifty percent (50%) or more of the combined voting power of the Employer’s then outstanding securities; or (ii) the occurrence of a transaction requiring
shareholder approval, and involving the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Employer or the merger of the Employer with or into another corporation. 
 (d) Death or Disability. This Agreement and Employee’s employment and compensation shall in any event terminate upon the death of Employee or the inability of Employee to perform the duties and functions
of his position for a period of ninety (90) consecutive days due to sickness, disability or any other cause beyond his control, unless Employer grants Employee a leave of absence with or without all or a portion of his salary or other benefits,
as may be specified. 
 7. Confidential Information. Employee recognizes that Employer’s business and the business of other
affiliates depend upon the use and protection of a large body of confidential and proprietary information now existing or to be developed in the future which will be referred to in this Agreement as “Confidential Trade Information.”
Employee intends that the meaning of Confidential Trade Information in this Agreement will be read as broadly as possible to include all information of any sort (whether merely remembered or embodied in a tangible medium) which is related to
Employer’s business and the business of corporations affiliated with Employer or any of their potential future business and which is not generally and publicly known. Without limiting the foregoing, Employee agrees that the customer lists and
lists of contracts and potential customers of Employer and its affiliates are and will be a part of the Confidential Trade Information. Employee agrees to protect and preserve as confidential during the term hereof, and at all times after its
termination or expiration, all of the Confidential Trade Information at any time known to Employee or at any time in Employee’s possession or control. Employee will neither use nor allow any other person or entity (including entities partially
or wholly owned by Employee) to use in any way, except for the benefit of Employer and as directed by Employer, any of the Confidential Trade Information. Employee will, prior to or upon leaving employment with Employer, deliver to Employer any and
all records, items, and media of any type (including all partial or complete copies or duplicates) containing or otherwise relating to any of the Confidential Trade Information, whether prepared or acquired by or provided to Employee. Employee
acknowledges that all such records, items and media are at all times and shall remain the property of Employer. 
 8. Covenant Not to
Compete. During the term of this Agreement or for a six (6) month extension as provided in Paragraph 6, Employee hereby agrees that he will not directly or indirectly enter into the employment of, render any service or assistance to or
acquire any interest whatsoever, whether as an individual proprietor, partner, associate, officer, director, consultant, trustee or otherwise, in any business, trade or occupation in competition with the business of Employer within one hundred fifty
(150) miles of any office of Employer or any affiliate of Employer. Without limiting the foregoing, Employee also agrees that he will not, during said period, cause or attempt to cause or induce any employee of Employer to leave the employment
of Employer, or call on or otherwise solicit business from any of the customers of Employer which, at the time of termination of his employment, were listed (or ought to have been listed) in Employer’s records, in respect of any service or
product that competes directly or indirectly with any service provided or marketed by or actually under the development or active consideration by Employer at the time of Employee’s termination. 
  

 -3- 

 9. Remedies. Employee agrees that damages for breach of his covenants under Paragraphs 7 and 8
above will be difficult to determine and probably inadequate to remedy the harm caused thereby and therefore consents that these covenants may be enforced by temporary or permanent injunction. Such injunctive relief shall be in addition and not in
place of any other remedies available at law or equity. Employee further agrees that profits made in violation of these covenants shall be held in constructive trust for Employer. Employee acknowledges that the provisions of this Paragraph and such
covenants are reasonable, that any lump sum payment made under Paragraph 6 would be adequate compensation under the circumstances, and that in any event Employee is capable of gainful employment without breaching such covenants. However, should any
court or tribunal ever find that any provision of such covenants are illegal or unenforceable on the grounds of unreasonableness whether in period of time, geographical area or otherwise, then in that event the parties agree that such covenants
shall be interpreted and enforced to the maximum extent which the court or tribunal deems reasonable. For purpose of this Paragraph and Paragraphs 7 and 8 of this Agreement, the term “Employer” shall include any subsidiary, agent or other
affiliate of Employer. 
 10. Entire Agreement; Modification. The provisions contained herein constitute the entire Agreement between
the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and any waiver, alteration or modification of any provisions of this Agreement, or the replacement of this Agreement shall not be valid unless in writing and signed by all the parties signing
hereunder. 
 11. Dispute Settlement. Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the breach thereof,
shall be settled by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes, and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered by any court having
jurisdiction thereof. Any such arbitration shall be conducted before a panel of three (3) arbitrators, of which each Party shall select one arbitrator and such two arbitrators shall select a third. All decisions of the arbitration panel shall
be taken by majority vote. Any such arbitration shall take place in Seattle, Washington, U.S.A. 
 12. Agreement Not Assignable.
Employee may not assign any of his rights or delegate any of his duties hereunder. Employer may assign this Agreement and delegate its duties hereunder to any of its affiliates at any time owned by, owning or under common ownership, provided that
Employee shall remain assigned to the business conducted by Employer or its successors. 
 13. No Waiver. No waiver of the terms or
provisions hereof shall be valid unless in writing signed by the party against which the enforcement of such waiver is sought, nor shall any waiver or failure to enforce any right hereunder be deemed to be a waiver of the same or any other right in
any other instance. 
  

 -4- 

 14. Successors. Subject to the restriction on assignment and delegation set forth herein, this
Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective heirs, successors, assigns and personal representatives. 
 Signed by the parties as of the date first written above.

 WHEREAS, the Plan provides for the granting of stock options that either (i) are intended to qualify as “Incentive Stock Options” within
the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or (ii) do not qualify under Section 422 of the Code (“Non-Qualified Stock Options”); 
 WHEREAS, on •, 2008 (the “Date of Grant”), the Company authorized the grant to the Optionee of an [an Incentive Stock Option][a
Non-Qualified Stock Option] to purchase shares of Common Stock (the “Option”); 
 NOW, THEREFORE, the Company hereby grants to
Optionee the option to purchase, upon the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Plan, shares of Common Stock, as stated in the initial grant notice and/or Optionee’s account at a service provider’s stock option website. (At the
time of this grant, Optionee views and accepts the Option at the self-service website of Transcentive, a Computershare company: https://admin01.transcentive.com.)

 2. Date of Grant. This option was granted on •, 2008. 
 3. Exercise Price. The exercise price for the Option
shall be $• per share. 
 4. Limitation on the Number of Shares. The tax treatment set forth in Section 422 of the Code is
subject to certain limitations. These limitations, which are described in Section 5(a) of the Plan and are based upon the Code, generally limit the number of shares that will qualify under Section 422 in any given calendar year. Under
Section 5(a) any portion of an Option that exceeds the annual limit shall be a “Non-Qualified Stock Option.” The Company can make no representation that any of this Option will actually qualify under Section 422 when exercised.

	  	100%

 Upon any Change in Control of the Company, as defined in the Plan, the Option shall accelerate and become fully
vested and exercisable in accordance with Section 5(n) of the Plan. 
 6. Option Not Transferable. This Option may not be
transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated in any manner (whether by operation of law or otherwise) other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and shall not be subject to execution, attachment or similar process. Should any
of the foregoing occur, Section 4 of the Plan provides that this Option shall terminate and become null and void. 
 7. Investment
Intent. By accepting this Option, Optionee represents and agrees for himself, and all persons who acquire rights in this Option in accordance with the Plan through Optionee, that none of the shares of Common Stock purchased upon exercise of this
Option will be distributed in violation of applicable federal and state laws and regulations, and Optionee shall furnish evidence satisfactory to the Company (including a written and signed representation letter and a consent to be bound by all
transfer restrictions imposed by applicable law, legend condition, or otherwise) to that effect, prior to delivery of the purchased shares of Common Stock. 

 8. Termination of Option. A vested Option shall terminate, to the extent not previously exercised,
upon the occurrence of the first of the following events: 
  

	 	(i)	ten years from the Date of Grant; 

  

	 	(ii)	the expiration of three (3) months following the date of an Optionee’s termination of employment with the Company for any reason other than death or Disability; or

  

	 	(iii)	the expiration of six (6) months following the date of death of the Optionee or the cessation of employment of the Optionee by reason of Disability. 

In the event of death of the Optionee, the Option shall be exercisable only by the person or persons to whom the Optionee’s rights under the
Option shall pass by the Optionee’s will or by the laws of descent and distribution of the state or county of the Optionee’s domicile at the time of death. Each unvested Option granted pursuant hereto shall terminate upon the
Optionee’s termination of employment for any reason whatsoever, including death or Disability. For Incentive Stock Option purposes, “Disability” shall mean that the Optionee is unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity by
reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in death or that has lasted, or can be expected to last, for a continuous period of not less than twelve (12) months. This definition of
“Disability” is intended to comply with, and will be interpreted consistently with, Sections 22(e)(3) and 422(c)(6) of the Code. 
 9. Stock. In the case of any stock split, stock dividend or like change in the nature of shares granted by this Agreement, the number of shares and option price shall be proportionately adjusted as set forth in Section 5(m) of
the Plan. 
 10. Exercise of Option. Each exercise of this Option shall be by means of written notice delivered to the Company
at its principal executive office in Seattle, Washington, specifying the number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased. Upon each exercise of this Option, the full exercise price for the Common Stock to be purchased together with the amount
necessary for the Company to satisfy its withholding obligation imposed by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, if any, shall be paid to the Company by wire transfer, except to the extent another method of payment is permitted by the Plan
Administrator. Alternatively, the Optionee may pay for all or any portion of the exercise price by delivery of previously acquired shares of Common Stock with a fair market value equal to or greater than the full exercise price or by complying with
any other payment mechanism which the Plan Administrator may approve at the time of exercise. The exercise date of this Option shall be the date of the Company’s receipt of the full exercise price for the Common Stock to be purchased. 

 11. Holding Period for Incentive Stock Options. In order to obtain the favorable tax treatment currently provided by
Section 422 of the Code, the shares of Common Stock must be sold, if at all, after a date which is the later of two (2) years from the date of grant of the Incentive Stock Option or one (1) year from the date upon which the Option is
exercised. The Optionee agrees to report sales of such shares prior to the above determined date within one (1) business day after such sale is concluded. 
 12. Optionee Acknowledgments. Optionee acknowledges that he has read and understands the terms of this Agreement and that: 
 (a) The issuance of shares of Common Stock pursuant to the exercise of this Option, the issuance of any securities with respect to such
Common Stock by way of a stock dividend or stock split or in connection with a combination of shares, recapitalization, merger, consolidation or reorganization, and any resale of any such shares of Common Stock, may only be effected in compliance
with applicable state and federal laws and regulations, including the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”);

prior to any exercise of the Option, he will seek access to all information relating to the merits and risks of acquiring Common Stock necessary to make an informed decision; 
 (d) He is not entitled to any rights as a shareholder with respect to any shares of Common Stock issuable hereunder until he becomes a
shareholder of record; 
 (e) The shares of Common Stock subject hereto may be adjusted in the event of certain organic
changes in the capital structure of the Company or for any other reason permitted by the Plan; and 

 (f) This Agreement does not constitute an employment agreement nor does it entitle
Optionee to any specific employment or to employment for a period of time, and Optionee’s continued employment, if any, with the Company shall be at will and is subject to termination in accordance with the Company’s prevailing policies
and any other agreement between Optionee and the Company. 
 13. Professional Advice. The acceptance and exercise of the Option and
the sale of Common Stock issued pursuant to exercise of the Option may have consequences under federal and state tax and securities laws which may vary depending on the individual circumstances of the Optionee. Accordingly, the Optionee acknowledges
that he has been advised to consult his personal legal and tax advisor in connection with this Agreement and his dealings with respect to the Option or the Common Stock. 
 14. Notices. Any notice required or permitted to be made or given hereunder shall be hand delivered or mailed by certified or registered mail to the Company’s address set forth below, or to the
Optionee’s address on file at the Company’s Stock Administration department or as changed from time to time by written notice to the other.
