 Exhibit 10.3 

Confluent, Inc. 
 2014
Stock Plan 
 STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT 

1. Grant of Option. Confluent, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby grants to the person
(“Optionee”) named in the Notice of Stock Option Grant (the “Notice”), an option (the “Option”) to purchase the total number of shares of Common Stock (the “Shares”) set forth in
the Notice, at the exercise price per Share set forth in the Notice (the “Exercise Price”) subject to the terms, definitions and provisions of the Confluent, Inc. 2014 Stock Plan (the “Plan”) adopted by the Company,
which is incorporated in this Stock Option Agreement (this “Agreement”) by reference. Unless otherwise defined in this Agreement, the terms used in this Agreement or the Notice shall have the meanings defined in the Plan. 

2. Designation of Option. This Option is intended to be an Incentive Stock Option as defined in Section 422 of the Code
only to the extent so designated in the Notice, and to the extent it is not so designated or to the extent this Option does not qualify as an Incentive Stock Option, it is intended to be a Nonstatutory Stock Option. 

Notwithstanding the above, if designated as an Incentive Stock Option, in the event that the Shares subject to this Option (and all other
incentive stock options granted to Optionee by the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, including under other plans) that first become exercisable in any calendar year have an aggregate fair market value (determined for each Share as of the date of
grant of the option covering such Share) in excess of USD $100,000, the Shares in excess of USD $100,000 shall be treated as subject to a nonstatutory stock option, in accordance with Section 5(c) of the Plan. 

3. Exercise of Option. This Option shall be exercisable during its term in accordance with the Vesting/Exercise Schedule set out
in the Notice and with the provisions of Section 7(c) of the Plan as follows: 
 (a) Right to Exercise. 

(i) This Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a share. 

(ii) In the event of Optionee’s death, Disability or other termination of Continuous Service Status, the exercisability of this Option
is governed by Section 5 below, subject to the limitations contained in this Section 3. 

 (iii) In no event may this Option be exercised after the Expiration Date set forth in the
Notice. 
 (b) Method of Exercise. 

(i) This Option shall be exercisable by execution and delivery of the Early Exercise Notice and Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement attached
hereto as Exhibit A, the Exercise Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit B (to the extent Optionee exercises the Option with respect to vested shares only) or of any other form of written notice approved for such purpose by the Company
which shall state Optionee’s election to exercise this Option, the number of Shares in respect of which this Option is being exercised, and such other representations and agreements as to the holder’s investment intent with respect to such
Shares as may be required by the Company pursuant to the provisions of the Plan. Such written notice shall be signed by Optionee and shall be delivered to the Company by such means as are determined by the Company in its discretion to constitute
adequate delivery. The written notice shall be accompanied by payment of the aggregate Exercise Price for the purchased Shares. 
 (ii) As
a condition to the grant, vesting and exercise of this Option and as further set forth in Section 9 of the Plan, Optionee hereby agrees to make adequate provision for the satisfaction of (and will indemnify the Company and any Subsidiary or
Affiliate for) any applicable taxes or tax withholdings, social contributions, required deductions, or other payments, if any (“Tax-Related Items”), which arise upon the grant, vesting or
exercise of this Option, ownership or disposition of Shares, receipt of dividends, if any, or otherwise in connection with this Option or the Shares, whether by withholding, direct payment to the Company, or otherwise as determined by the Company in
its sole discretion. Regardless of any action the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate takes with respect to any or all applicable Tax-Related Items, Optionee acknowledges and agrees that the ultimate
liability for all Tax-Related Items is and remains Optionee’s responsibility and may exceed any amount actually withheld by the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate. Optionee further acknowledges and
agrees that Optionee is solely responsible for filing all relevant documentation that may be required in relation to this Option or any Tax-Related Items (other than filings or documentation that is the
specific obligation of the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate pursuant to Applicable Law), such as but not limited to personal income tax returns or reporting statements in relation to the grant, vesting or exercise of this Option, the holding
of Shares or any bank or brokerage account, the subsequent sale of Shares, and the receipt of any dividends. Optionee further acknowledges that the Company makes no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items and does not commit to and is under no obligation to structure the terms or any aspect of the Option to reduce or eliminate Optionee’s liability for
Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Optionee also understands that Applicable Laws may require varying Share or option valuation methods for purposes of calculating Tax-Related Items, and the Company assumes no responsibility or liability in relation to any such valuation or for any calculation or reporting of income or Tax-Related Items
that may be required of Optionee under Applicable Laws. Further, if Optionee has become subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction, Optionee acknowledges that the Company or any Subsidiary or
Affiliate may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.

 (iii) The Company is not obligated, and will have no liability for failure to issue or
deliver any Shares upon exercise of this Option unless such issuance or delivery would comply with the Applicable Laws, with such compliance determined by the Company in consultation with its legal counsel. Furthermore, Optionee understands that the
Applicable Laws of the country in which Optionee is residing or working at the time of grant, vesting, and/or exercise of this Option (including any rules or regulations governing securities, foreign exchange, tax, labor or other matters) may
restrict or prevent exercise of this Option. This Option may not be exercised until such time as the Plan has been approved by the holders of capital stock of the Company, or if the issuance of such Shares upon such exercise or the method of payment
of consideration for such Shares would constitute a violation of any Applicable Laws, including any applicable U.S. federal or state securities laws or any other law or regulation, including any rule under Part 221 of Title 12 of the Code of Federal
Regulations as promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board. As a condition to the exercise of this Option, the Company may require Optionee to make any representation and warranty to the Company as may be required by the Applicable Laws. Assuming such
compliance, for income tax purposes the Shares shall be considered transferred to Optionee on the date on which this Option is exercised with respect to such Shares, subject to Applicable Laws. 

(iv) Subject to compliance with Applicable Laws, this Option shall be deemed to be exercised upon receipt by the Company of the appropriate
written notice of exercise accompanied by the Exercise Price and the satisfaction of any applicable obligations described in Section 3(b)(ii) above. 

4. Method of Payment. Unless otherwise specified by the Company in its sole discretion to comply with Applicable Laws or
facilitate the administration of the Plan, payment of the Exercise Price shall be by cash or check or, following the initial public offering of the Company’s Common Stock, by Cashless Exercise pursuant to which the Optionee delivers an
irrevocable direction to a securities broker (on a form prescribed by the Company and according to a procedure established by the Company). 

Optionee understands and agrees that, if required by the Company or Applicable Laws, any cross-border cash remittance made to exercise this
Option or transfer proceeds received upon the sale of Shares must be made through a locally authorized financial institution or registered foreign exchange agency and may require Optionee to provide to such entity certain information regarding the
transaction. Moreover, Optionee understands and agrees that the future value of the underlying Shares is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty and may decrease in value, even below the Exercise Price. Optionee understands that neither the
Company nor any Subsidiary or Affiliate is responsible for any foreign exchange fluctuation between local currency and the United States Dollar or the selection by the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate in its sole discretion of an applicable
foreign currency exchange rate that may affect the value of the Option (or the calculation of income or Tax-Related Items thereunder).

 5. Termination of Relationship. Following the date of termination of
Optionee’s Continuous Service Status for any reason (the “Termination Date”), Optionee may exercise this Option only as set forth in the Notice and this Section 5. If Optionee does not exercise this Option within the
Termination Period set forth in the Notice or the termination periods set forth below, this Option shall terminate in its entirety. In no event, may any Option be exercised after the Expiration Date of this Option as set forth in the Notice. For the
avoidance of doubt and for purposes of this Option only, termination of Continuous Service Status and the Termination Date will be deemed to occur as of the date Optionee is no longer actively providing services as an Employee or Consultant (except,
in certain circumstances, to the extent Optionee is on a Company-approved leave of absence and subject to any Company policy or Applicable Laws regarding such leaves) and will not be extended by any notice period or “garden leave” that may
be required contractually or under Applicable Laws, unless otherwise determined by the Company in its sole discretion. 
 (a) General
Termination. In the event of termination of Optionee’s Continuous Service Status other than as a result of Optionee’s Disability or death or Optionee’s termination for Cause, Optionee may, to the extent Optionee is vested in
the Optioned Stock, exercise this Option during the Termination Period set forth in the Notice. 
 (b) Termination upon Disability of
Optionee. In the event of termination of Optionee’s Continuous Service Status as a result of Optionee’s Disability, Optionee may, but only within 12 months following the Termination Date, exercise this Option to the extent Optionee
is vested in the Optioned Stock. 
 (c) Death of Optionee. In the event of termination of Optionee’s Continuous Service
Status as a result of Optionee’s death, or in the event of Optionee’s death within 3 months following Optionee’s Termination Date, this Option may be exercised at any time within 12 months following the Termination Date, or if later,
12 months following the date of death by any beneficiaries designated in accordance with Section 16 of the Plan or, if there are no such beneficiaries, by the Optionee’s estate, or by a person who acquired the right to exercise the Option
by bequest or inheritance, but only to the extent Optionee is vested in the Optioned Stock. 

  
 -4- 

 (d) Termination for Cause. In the event of termination of Optionee’s
Continuous Service Status for Cause, this Option (including any vested portion thereof) shall immediately terminate in its entirety upon first notification to Optionee of such termination for Cause. If Optionee’s Continuous Service Status is
suspended pending an investigation of whether Optionee’s Continuous Service Status will be terminated for Cause, all Optionee’s rights under this Option, including the right to exercise this Option, shall be suspended during the
investigation period. 
 6. Non-Transferability of Option. This Option may not be
transferred in any manner otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution and may be exercised during the lifetime of Optionee only by him or her. The terms of this Option shall be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs,
successors and assigns of Optionee. 
 7. Lock-Up Agreement. If so requested by the
Company or the underwriters in connection with the initial public offering of the Company’s securities registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Optionee shall not sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the
purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any securities of the Company however or whenever acquired (except for those being registered) without the prior written consent of the Company or such underwriters, as the case may be, for 180 days from the
effective date of the registration statement, plus such additional period, to the extent required by FINRA rules, up to a maximum of 216 days from the effective date of the registration statement, and Optionee shall execute an agreement reflecting
the foregoing as may be requested by the underwriters at the time of such offering. 
 8. Effect of Agreement. Optionee
acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and represents that he or she is familiar with the terms and provisions thereof (and has had an opportunity to consult counsel regarding the Option terms), and hereby accepts this Option and agrees to be
bound by its contractual terms as set forth herein and in the Plan. Optionee hereby agrees to accept as binding, conclusive and final all decisions and interpretations of the Administrator regarding any questions relating to this Option. In the
event of a conflict between the terms and provisions of the Plan and the terms and provisions of the Notice and this Agreement, the Plan terms and provisions shall prevail. 

9. Imposition of Other Requirements. The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on Optionee’s
participation in the Plan, on this Option and the Shares subject to this Option and on any other Award or Shares acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable in order to comply with Applicable Laws or
facilitate the administration of the Plan. Optionee agrees to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing. Furthermore, Optionee acknowledges that the Applicable Laws of the country in which
Optionee is residing or working at the time of grant, holding, vesting, and exercise of the Option or the holding or sale of Shares received pursuant to the Option (including any rules or regulations governing securities, foreign exchange, tax,
labor, or other matters) may subject Optionee to additional procedural or regulatory requirements that Optionee is and will be solely responsible for and must fulfill. If applicable, such requirements may be outlined in but are not limited to the
Country-Specific Addendum (the “Addendum”) attached hereto, which forms part of this Agreement. 

  
 -5- 

 Notwithstanding any provision herein, Optionee’s participation in the Plan shall be subject to any
applicable special terms and conditions or disclosures as set forth in the Addendum. 
 10. Electronic Delivery and
Translation. The Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related to Optionee’s current or future participation in the Plan, this Option, the Shares subject to this Option, any other Company Securities or any
other Company-related documents, by electronic means. By accepting this Option, whether electronically or otherwise, Optionee hereby (i) consents to receive such documents by electronic means, (ii) consents to the use of electronic
signatures, and (iii) if applicable, agrees to participate in the Plan and/or receive any such documents through an on-line or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or a third party
designated by the Company, including but not limited to the use of electronic signatures or click-through electronic acceptance of terms and conditions. To the extent Optionee has been provided with a copy of this Agreement, the Plan, or any other
documents relating to this Option in a language other than English, the English language documents will prevail in case of any ambiguities or divergences as a result of translation. 

11. No Acquired Rights or Employment Rights. In accepting the Option, Optionee acknowledges that the Plan is established
voluntarily by the Company, is discretionary in nature, and may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time. 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 any other Awards or benefits in lieu of Options, even if Options have been granted repeatedly in the past. All decisions with respect to future grants of Options or other Awards, if any, will be at the sole
discretion of the Company. In addition, Optionee’s participation in the Plan is voluntary, and the Option and the Shares subject to the Option are extraordinary items that do not constitute regular compensation for services rendered to the
Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate and are outside the scope of Optionee’s employment contract, if any. The Option and the Shares subject to the Option are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation and are not part of
normal or expected salary or compensation for any purpose, including but not limited to calculating severance payments, if any, upon termination. Nothing contained in this Agreement is intended to constitute or create a contract of employment, nor
shall it constitute or create the right to remain associated with or in the employ of the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate for any particular period of time. This Agreement shall not interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any
Subsidiary or Affiliate to terminate Optionee’s employment or service at any time, subject to Applicable Laws. 

  
 -6- 

 12. Data Privacy. Optionee hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents
to the collection, use and transfer, whether in electronic or other form, of Optionee’s personal data (as described below) by and among, as applicable, the Company and any Subsidiary or Affiliate or third parties as may be selected by the
Company, for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering, and managing Optionee’s participation in the Plan. Optionee understands that refusal or withdrawal of consent may affect Optionee’s ability to participate in the Plan or to
realize benefits from the Option. 
 Optionee understands that the Company and any Subsidiary or Affiliate may hold certain
personal information about Optionee, including, but not limited to, Optionee’s name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any shares of stock
or directorships held in the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate, details of all Options or any other entitlement to Shares awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in Optionee’s favor (“Personal Data”).
Optionee understands that Personal Data may be transferred to any Subsidiary or Affiliate or third parties assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan, that these recipients may be located in the United States,
Optionee’s country, or elsewhere, and that the recipient’s country may have different data privacy laws and protections than Optionee’s country. 

13. Miscellaneous. 

(a) Governing Law. The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of 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 California, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law. For purposes of

 CONFLUENT, INC. 

2014 STOCK PLAN 

EXERCISE AGREEMENT 

This Exercise Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made as of __________________, by and between Confluent, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the “Company”), and__________ (“Purchaser”). To the extent any capitalized terms used in this Agreement are not defined, they shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Company’s 2014 Stock
Plan (the “Plan”) and the Option Agreement (as defined below). 
 1. Exercise of Option. Subject to
the terms and conditions hereof, Purchaser hereby elects to exercise his or her option to purchase ___________ Incentive Stock Option (ISO) shares and ___________ Nonstatutory Stock Option (NSO) shares of the Common Stock (together, the
“Shares”) of the Company under and pursuant to the Plan, the Notice of Stock Option Grant and the Stock Option Agreement granted ______________ (the “Option Agreement”). The purchase price for the Shares shall be
USD $ _________ per Share for a total purchase price of USD $ _________ . The term “Shares” refers to the purchased Shares and all securities received 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 property to which Purchaser is entitled by reason of Purchaser’s
ownership of the Shares. 
 2. Time and Place of Exercise. The purchase and sale of the Shares under this Agreement
shall occur at the principal office of the Company simultaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the payment of the aggregate exercise price by any method listed in Section 4 of the Option Agreement, and the satisfaction of any
applicable tax, withholding, required deductions or other payments, all in accordance with the provisions of Section 3(b) of the Option Agreement. The Company shall issue the Shares to Purchaser by entering such Shares in Purchaser’s name as of
such date in the books and records of the Company or, if applicable, a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company, against payment of the exercise price therefor by Purchaser. The Company will deliver to Purchaser a stock certificate or, in the
case of uncertificated securities upon request, a notice of issuance, for the Shares as soon as practicable following such date. 
 3.
Limitations on Transfer. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Shares purchased under this Agreement are subject to (i) the transfer restrictions set forth in Section 12 of the Plan, (ii) the terms and
conditions that apply to the Company’s Common Stock, as set forth in the Company’s Bylaws, as may be in effect at the time of any proposed transfer (the “Bylaw Restrictions”), and (iii) any other limitation or
restriction on transfer created by Applicable Laws. Purchaser shall not assign, encumber or dispose of any interest in the Shares except to the extent permitted by, and in compliance with, Section 12 of the Plan, the Bylaw Restrictions,
Applicable Laws, and the provisions below. 
  

	 	(a)	 Transfer Restrictions; Right of First Refusal. Before any Shares held by Purchaser or any
transferee of Purchaser (either being sometimes referred to herein as the “Holder”) may be sold or otherwise transferred (including transfer by gift or operation of law), the Company shall first have the right to approve such sale
or transfer, in full or in part, and shall then have the right to purchase all or any part of the Shares proposed to be sold or transferred, in each case, in its sole and absolute discretion (the “Right of First Refusal”). If the
Holder would like to sell or transfer any Shares, the Holder must provide the Company or its assignee(s) with a Notice (as defined below) requesting approval to sell or transfer the Shares and offering the Company or its assignee(s) a Right of First
Refusal on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 3(a). The Company may either (1) exercise its Right of First Refusal in full or in part and purchase such Shares pursuant to this Section 3(a), (2) decline to exercise its
Right of First Refusal in full or in part and permit the sale or transfer of such Shares to the Proposed Transferee (as defined below) in full or in part, or (3) decline to exercise its Right of First Refusal in full or in part and decline the
request to sell or transfer the Shares in full or in part. 

 (i) Notice of Proposed Transfer. The Holder of the Shares shall
deliver to the Company a written notice (the “Notice”) stating: (A) the Holder’s desire to sell or otherwise transfer such Shares; (B) the name of each proposed purchaser or other transferee (“Proposed
Transferee”); (C) the number of Shares to be sold or transferred to each Proposed Transferee; (D) the terms and conditions of each proposed sale or transfer, including (without limitation) the purchase price for such Shares (the
“Purchase Price”); and (E) the Holder’s offer to the Company or its assignee(s) to purchase the Shares at the Purchase Price and upon the same terms (or terms that are no less favorable to the Company). 

(ii) Exercise of Right of First Refusal. At any time within 30 days after receipt of the Notice, the Company and/or its
assignee(s) shall deliver a written notice to the Holder indicating whether the Company and/or its assignee(s) elect to permit or reject the proposed sale or transfer, in full or in part, and/or elect to accept or decline the offer to purchase any
or all of the Shares proposed to be sold or transferred to any one or more of the Proposed Transferees, at the Purchase Price, provided that if the Purchase Price consists of no legal consideration (as, for example, in the case of a transfer by
gift), the purchase price will be the fair market value of the Shares as determined in good faith by the Company. If the Purchase Price includes consideration other than cash, the cash equivalent value of the
non-cash consideration shall be determined by the Company in good faith. 
 (iii)
Payment. Payment of the Purchase Price shall be made, at the election of the Company or its assignee(s), in cash (by check), by cancellation of all or a portion of any outstanding indebtedness, or by any combination thereof
within 60 days after receipt of the Notice or in the manner and at the times set forth in the Notice. 

  
 -2- 

 (iv) Holder’s Right to Transfer. If any of the Shares proposed in
the Notice to be sold or transferred to a given Proposed Transferee are both (A) not purchased by the Company and/or its assignee(s) as provided in this Section 3(a) and (B) approved by the Company to be sold or transferred,
then the Holder may sell or otherwise transfer any such Shares to the applicable Proposed Transferee at the Purchase Price or at a higher price, provided that such sale or other transfer is consummated within 120 days after the date of the Notice;
provided that any such sale or other transfer is also effected in accordance with the Bylaw Restrictions, the transfer restrictions set forth in the Plan and any Applicable Laws and the Proposed Transferee agrees in writing that the Plan, the Bylaw
Restrictions, and the provisions of the Option Agreement and this Agreement, including this Section 3 and the waiver of statutory information rights in Section 8, shall continue to apply to the Shares in the hands of such Proposed
Transferee. The Company, in consultation with its legal counsel, may require the Holder to provide an opinion of counsel evidencing compliance with Applicable Laws. If the Shares described in the Notice are not transferred to the Proposed Transferee
within such period, or if the Holder proposes to change the price or other terms to make them more favorable to the Proposed Transferee, a new Notice shall be given to the Company, and the Company and/or its assignees shall again have the right to
approve such transfer and be offered the Right of First Refusal. 
 (v) Exception for Certain Family Transfers.
Anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3(a) notwithstanding, the transfer of any or all of the Shares during Holder’s lifetime or on Holder’s death by will or intestacy to Holder’s Immediate Family or a trust for the
benefit of Holder’s Immediate Family shall be exempt from the provisions of this Section 3(a). “Immediate Family” as used herein shall mean lineal descendant or antecedent, spouse (or spouse’s antecedents), father,
mother, brother or sister (or their descendants), stepchild (or their antecedents or descendants), aunt or uncle (or their antecedents or descendants), brother-in-law or
sister-in-law (or their antecedents or descendants) and shall include adoptive relationships. In such case, the transferee or other recipient shall receive and hold the
Shares so transferred subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Bylaw Restrictions, and the provisions of the Option Agreement and this Agreement, including this Section 3 and Section 8, and there shall be no further transfer of such
Shares except in accordance with the terms of this Section 3, the Plan and the Bylaw Restrictions. 
  

	 	(b)	 Company’s Right to Purchase upon Involuntary Transfer. In the event of any transfer
by operation of law or other involuntary transfer (including death or divorce, but excluding a transfer to Immediate Family as set forth in Section 3(a)(v) above) of all or a portion of the Shares by the record holder thereof, the Company shall
have an option to purchase any or all of the Shares transferred at the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of transfer (as determined by the Company in its sole discretion). Upon such a transfer, the Holder shall promptly notify the
Secretary of the Company of such transfer. The right to purchase such Shares shall be provided to the Company for a period of 30 days following receipt by the Company of written notice from the Holder. 

  
 -3- 

	 	(c)	 Assignment. The right of the Company to purchase any part of the Shares may be assigned in
whole or in part to any holder or holders of capital stock of the Company or other persons or organizations. 

  

	 	(d)	 Restrictions Binding on Transferees. All transferees of Shares or any interest therein
will receive and hold such Shares or interest subject to the Plan, the Bylaw Restrictions, and the provisions of the Option Agreement and this Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 7 of the Option Agreement, Sections 3 and 8 of this
Agreement and Section 12 of the Plan. Any sale or transfer of the Shares shall be void unless the provisions of this Agreement are satisfied. 

  

	 	(e)	 Termination of Rights. The transfer restrictions set forth in Section 3(a) above and
Section 12 of the Plan, the Right of First Refusal granted the Company by Section 3(a) above and the option to repurchase the Shares in the event of an involuntary transfer granted the Company by Section 3(b) above shall terminate
upon (i) the first sale of Common Stock of the Company to the general public pursuant to a registration statement filed with and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act (other than a registration
statement relating solely to the issuance of Common Stock pursuant to a business combination or an employee incentive or benefit plan) or (ii) any transfer or conversion of Shares made pursuant to a statutory merger or statutory consolidation
of the Company with or into another corporation or corporations if the common stock of the surviving corporation or any direct or indirect parent corporation thereof is registered under the Exchange Act. Upon termination of such transfer
restrictions, the Company will remove any stop-transfer notices referred to in Section 6(b) below and related to the restrictions in this Section 3 and a new stock certificate or, in the case of uncertificated securities, notice of
issuance, for the Shares not repurchased shall be issued, on request, without the legend referred to in Section 6(a)(ii) below and delivered to Holder. 

  

	 	(f)	 Lock-Up Agreement. The lock-up provisions set forth in Section 7 of the Option Agreement shall apply to the Shares issued upon exercise of the Option hereunder and Purchaser reaffirms Purchaser’s obligations set forth therein.

 17. Investment and Taxation Representations. In connection with the purchase of the Shares,
Purchaser represents to the Company the following: 
  

	 	(a)	 Purchaser is aware of the Company’s business affairs and financial condition and has acquired sufficient
information about the Company to reach an informed and knowledgeable decision to acquire the Shares. Purchaser is purchasing the Shares for investment for Purchaser’s own account only and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with,
any “distribution” thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act or under any applicable provision of state law. Purchaser does not have any present intention to transfer the Shares to any other person or entity.

  
 -4- 

	 	(b)	 Purchaser understands that the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act by reason of a specific
exemption therefrom, which exemption depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of Purchaser’s investment intent as expressed herein. 

  

	 	(c)	 Purchaser further acknowledges and understands that the securities must be held indefinitely unless they are
subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. Purchaser further acknowledges and understands that the Company is under no obligation to register the securities. 

 

	 	(d)	 Purchaser is familiar with the provisions of Rule 144, promulgated under the Securities Act, which, in
substance, permits limited public resale of “restricted securities” acquired, directly or indirectly, from the issuer of the securities (or from an affiliate of such issuer), in a non-public offering
subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. Purchaser understands that the Company provides no assurances as to whether he or she will be able to resell any or all of the Shares pursuant to Rule 144, which rule requires, among other things,
that the Company be subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, that resales of securities take place only after the holder of the Shares has held the Shares for certain specified time periods, and under certain circumstances, that
resales of securities be limited in volume and take place only pursuant to brokered transactions. Notwithstanding this Section 4(d), Purchaser acknowledges and agrees to the restrictions set forth in Section 4(e) below.

  

	 	(e)	 Purchaser further understands that in the event all of the applicable requirements of Rule 144 are not
satisfied, registration under the Securities Act, compliance with Regulation A, or some other registration exemption will be required; and that, notwithstanding the fact that Rule 144 is not exclusive, the Staff of the Securities and Exchange
Commission has expressed its opinion that persons proposing to sell private placement securities other than in a registered offering and otherwise than pursuant to Rule 144 will have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an exemption
from registration is available for such offers or sales, and that such persons and their respective brokers who participate in such transactions do so at their own risk. 

 

	 	(f)	 Purchaser represents that Purchaser is not subject to any of the “Bad Actor” disqualifications
described in Rule 506(d)(1)(i) to (viii) under the Securities Act. Purchaser also agrees to notify the Company if Purchaser becomes subject to such disqualifications after the date hereof. 

  
 -5- 

	 	(g)	 Purchaser understands that Purchaser may suffer adverse tax consequences as a result of Purchaser’s
purchase or disposition of the Shares. Purchaser represents that Purchaser has consulted any tax consultants Purchaser deems advisable in connection with the purchase or disposition of the Shares and that Purchaser is not relying on the Company for
any tax advice. 

 18. Voting Provisions. As a condition precedent to entering into this Agreement,
at the request of the Company, Purchaser shall become a party to any voting agreement to which the Company is a party at the time of Purchaser’s execution and delivery of this Agreement, as such voting agreement may be thereafter amended from
time to time (the “Voting Agreement”), by executing an adoption agreement or counterpart signature page agreeing to be bound by and subject to the terms of the Voting Agreement and to vote the Shares in the capacity of a
“Common Holder” and a “Stockholder,” as such terms may be defined in the Voting Agreement. 
 19.
Restrictive Legends and Stop-Transfer Orders. 
  

	 	(a)	 Legends. Any stock certificate or, in the case of uncertificated securities, any notice of
issuance, for the Shares shall bear the following legends (as well as any legends required by the Company or applicable state and federal corporate and securities laws): 

(i) “THE SECURITIES REFERENCED HEREIN HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AND HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT
AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THE SALE OR DISTRIBUTION THEREOF. NO SUCH SALE OR DISTRIBUTION MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATED THERETO OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN A FORM SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY
THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933.” 
 (ii) “THE SECURITIES REFERENCED HEREIN MAY BE
TRANSFERRED ONLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND THE STOCKHOLDER, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE WITH AND MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY AT NO CHARGE.” 

(iii) “THE TRANSFER OF THE SECURITIES REFERENCED HEREIN IS SUBJECT TO CERTAIN TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS SET FORTH IN THE COMPANY’S
STOCK PLAN, COPIES OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED UPON WRITTEN REQUEST TO THE COMPANY AT ITS PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS. THE COMPANY SHALL NOT REGISTER OR OTHERWISE RECOGNIZE OR GIVE EFFECT TO ANY PURPORTED TRANSFER OF SECURITIES THAT DOES NOT COMPLY
WITH SUCH TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS.” 
 (iv) Any legend required by the Voting Agreement, as applicable. 

 

	 	(b)	 Stop-Transfer Notices. Purchaser 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. 

  

	 	(c)	 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 the Plan or (ii) to treat as owner of such Shares or to accord the right to vote or pay dividends to any purchaser or other
transferee to whom such Shares shall have been so transferred. 

  
 -6- 

	 	(d)	 Required Notices. Purchaser acknowledges that the Shares are issued and shall be held
subject to all the provisions of this Section 6, the Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws of the Company and any amendments thereto, copies of which are on file at the principal office of the Company. A statement of all of the rights,
preferences, privileges and restrictions granted to or imposed upon the respective classes and/or series of shares of stock of the Company and upon the holders thereof may be obtained by any stockholder upon request and without charge, at the
principal office of the Company, and the Company will furnish any stockholder, upon request and without charge, a copy of such statement. Purchaser acknowledges that the provisions of this Section 6 shall constitute the notices required by
Sections 151(f) and 202(a) of the Delaware General Corporation Law and the Purchaser hereby expressly waives the requirement of Section 151(f) of the Delaware General Corporation Law that it receive the written notice provided for in Sections
151(f) and 202(a) of the Delaware General Corporation Law within a reasonable time after the issuance of the Shares. 

20. No Employment Rights. 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 Purchaser’s employment or consulting relationship, for any reason, with or without cause. 

21. Waiver of Statutory Information Rights. Purchaser acknowledges and understands that, but for the waiver made herein,
Purchaser would be entitled, upon written demand under oath stating the purpose thereof, to inspect for any proper purpose, and to make copies and extracts from, the Company’s stock ledger, a list of its stockholders, and its other books and
records, and the books and records of subsidiaries of the Company, if any, under the circumstances and in the manner provided in Section 220 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (any and all such rights, and any and all such other rights of
Purchaser as may be provided for in Section 220, the “Inspection Rights”). In light of the foregoing, until the first sale of Common Stock of the Company to the general public pursuant to a registration statement filed with and
declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Purchaser hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives the Inspection Rights, whether such Inspection Rights would be exercised or pursued
directly or indirectly pursuant to Section 220 or otherwise, and covenants and agrees never to directly or indirectly commence, voluntarily aid in any way, prosecute, assign, transfer, or cause to be commenced any claim, action, cause of
action, or other proceeding to pursue or exercise the Inspection Rights. The foregoing waiver applies to the Inspection Rights of Purchaser in Purchaser’s capacity as a stockholder and shall not affect any rights of a director, in his or her
capacity as such, under Section 220. The foregoing waiver shall not apply to any contractual inspection rights of Purchaser under any written agreement with the Company.

 CONFLUENT, INC. 

EARLY EXERCISE NOTICE AND RESTRICTED STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT 

This Agreement (“Agreement”) is made as of
                 by and between Confluent, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and
                 (“Purchaser”). To the extent any capitalized terms used in this Agreement are not defined, they shall have the meaning ascribed
to them in the Company’s 2014 Stock Plan (the “Plan”) and the Option Agreement (as defined below). 
 1.
Exercise of Option. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Purchaser hereby elects to exercise his or her option to purchase                 
Incentive Stock Option (ISO) shares and                      Nonstatutory Stock Option (NSO) shares of the Common Stock (together, the
“Shares”) of the Company under and pursuant to the Plan, the Notice of Stock Option Grant and the Stock Option Agreement granted
                         (the “Option Agreement”). Of these Shares, Purchaser has elected to purchase
                     ISO shares and
                     NSO shares which have become vested as of the date hereof under the Vesting/Exercise Schedule set forth in the Notice of
Stock Option Grant (together, the “Vested Shares”) and                      ISO shares and
                     NSO shares which have not yet vested under such Vesting/Exercise Schedule (together, the “Unvested
Shares”). The purchase price for the Shares shall be USD $             per Share for a total purchase price of USD
$                 . The term “Shares” refers to the purchased Shares and all securities received 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 property to which Purchaser is entitled by
reason of Purchaser’s ownership of the Shares. 
 2. Time and Place of Exercise. The purchase and sale of the Shares
under this Agreement shall occur at the principal office of the Company simultaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the payment of the aggregate exercise price by any method listed in Section 4 of the Option Agreement, and
the satisfaction of any applicable tax, withholding, required deductions or other payments, all in accordance with the provisions of Section 3(b) of the Option Agreement. The Company shall issue the Shares to Purchaser by entering such Shares
in Purchaser’s name as of such date in the books and records of the Company or, if applicable, a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company, against payment of the exercise price therefor by Purchaser. The Company will deliver to Purchaser a
stock certificate or, in the case of uncertificated securities upon request, a notice of issuance, for the Shares as soon as practicable following such date. 

3. Limitations on Transfer. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Shares purchased under this Agreement are subject to
(i) the transfer restrictions set forth in Section 12 of the Plan, (ii) the terms and conditions that apply to the Company’s Common Stock, as set forth in the Company’s Bylaws, as may be in effect at the time of any proposed
transfer (the “Bylaw Restrictions”), and (iii) any other limitation or restriction on transfer created by Applicable Laws. In addition to the foregoing limitations on transfer, Purchaser shall not assign, encumber or dispose of
any interest in the Shares while the Shares are subject to the Company’s Repurchase Option (as defined below). After any Shares have been released from such Repurchase Option, Purchaser shall not assign, encumber or dispose of any interest in
the Shares except to the extent permitted by, and in compliance with, Section 12 of the Plan, the Bylaw Restrictions, Applicable Laws, and the provisions below. 

  
 -12- 

 (a) Repurchase Option. 

(i) In the event of the voluntary or involuntary termination of Purchaser’s Continuous Service Status with the Company for any reason
(including death or Disability), with or without Cause, the Company shall upon the date of such termination (the “Termination Date”) have an irrevocable, exclusive option (the “Repurchase Option”) for a period of 3
months from such date to repurchase all or any portion of the Unvested Shares (as defined below) held by Purchaser as of the Termination Date at the original purchase price per Share (adjusted for any stock splits, stock dividends and the like)
specified in Section 2. As used herein, “Unvested Shares” means Shares that have not yet been released from the Repurchase Option. 

(ii) Unless the Company notifies Purchaser within 3 months from the Termination Date that it does not intend to exercise its Repurchase
Option with respect to some or all of the Unvested Shares, the Repurchase Option shall be deemed automatically exercised by the Company as of the end of such 3-month period following the Termination Date,
provided that the Company may notify Purchaser that it is exercising its Repurchase Option as of a date prior to the end of such 3-month period. Unless Purchaser is otherwise notified by the Company pursuant
to the preceding sentence that the Company does not intend to exercise its Repurchase Option as to some or all of the Unvested Shares to which it applies at the time of termination, execution of this Agreement by Purchaser constitutes written notice
to Purchaser of the Company’s intention to exercise its Repurchase Option with respect to all Unvested Shares to which such Repurchase Option applies. The Company, at its choice, may satisfy its payment obligation to Purchaser with respect to
exercise of the Repurchase Option by either (A) delivering a check to Purchaser in the amount of the purchase price for the Unvested Shares being repurchased, or (B) in the event Purchaser 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 Option pursuant to this Section 4(a)(ii) in which Purchaser is indebted to the Company, such indebtedness equal to the purchase price of the Unvested Shares being repurchased shall be deemed
automatically canceled as of the end of such 3-month period following the Termination Date unless the Company otherwise satisfies its payment obligations. As a result of any repurchase of Unvested Shares
pursuant to this Section 3, 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 Purchaser. 
 (iii) One hundred
percent (100%) of the Shares shall initially be subject to the Repurchase Option. The Unvested Shares shall be released from the Repurchase Option in accordance with the Vesting/Exercise Schedule set forth in the Notice of Stock Option Grant until
all Shares are released from the Repurchase Option; provided, however, that such scheduled releases from the Repurchase Option shall immediately cease as of the Termination Date. Fractional shares shall be rounded to the nearest whole share. 

  
 -13- 

 (b) Transfer Restrictions; Right of First Refusal. Before any Shares held by
Purchaser or any transferee of Purchaser (either being sometimes referred to herein as the “Holder”) may be sold or otherwise transferred (including transfer by gift or operation of law), the Company shall first have the right to
approve such sale or transfer, in full or in part, and shall then have the right to purchase all or any part of the Shares proposed to be sold or transferred, in each case, in its sole and absolute discretion (the “Right of First
Refusal”). If the Holder would like to sell or transfer any Shares, the Holder must provide the Company or its assignee(s) with a Notice (as defined below) requesting approval to sell or transfer the Shares and offering the Company or its
assignee(s) a Right of First Refusal on the same terms and conditions set forth in this Section 4(b). The Company may either (1) exercise its Right of First Refusal in full or in part and purchase such Shares pursuant to this
Section 4(b), (2) decline to exercise its Right of First Refusal in full or in part and permit the sale or transfer of such Shares to the Proposed Transferee (as defined below) in full or in part, or (3) decline to exercise its Right of
First Refusal in full or in part and decline the request to sell or transfer the Shares in full or in part. 
 (i) Notice of Proposed
Transfer. The Holder of the Shares shall deliver to the Company a written notice (the “Notice”) stating: (A) the Holder’s intention to sell or otherwise transfer such Shares; (B) the name of each proposed
purchaser or other transferee (“Proposed Transferee”); (C) the number of Shares to be sold or transferred to each Proposed Transferee; (D) the terms and conditions of each proposed sale or transfer, including (without
limitation) the purchase price for such Shares (the “Purchase Price”); and (E) the Holder’s offer to the Company or its assignee(s) to purchase the Shares at the Purchase Price and upon the same terms (or terms that are no
less favorable to the Company). 
 (ii) Exercise of Right of First Refusal. At any time within 30 days after receipt of the
Notice, the Company and/or its assignee(s) shall deliver a written notice to the Holder indicating whether the Company and/or its assignee(s) elect to permit or reject the proposed sale or transfer, in full or in part, and/or elect to accept or
decline the offer to purchase any or all of the Shares proposed to be sold or transferred to any one or more of the Proposed Transferees, at the Purchase Price, provided that if the Purchase Price consists of no legal consideration (as, for example,
in the case of a transfer by gift), the purchase price will be the fair market value of the Shares as determined in good faith by the Company. If the Purchase Price includes consideration other than cash, the cash equivalent value of the non-cash consideration shall be determined by the Company in good faith. 
 (iii) Payment.
Payment of the Purchase Price shall be made, at the election of the Company or its assignee(s), in cash (by check), by cancellation of all or a portion of any outstanding indebtedness, or by any combination thereof within 60 days after receipt of
the Notice or in the manner and at the times set forth in the Notice. 
 (iv) Holder’s Right to Transfer. If any of the
Shares proposed in the Notice to be sold or transferred to a given Proposed Transferee are both (A) not purchased by the Company and/or its assignee(s) as provided in this Section 4(b) and (B) approved by the Company to be sold
or transferred, then the Holder may sell or otherwise transfer any such Shares to the applicable Proposed Transferee at the Purchase Price or at a higher price, provided that such sale or other transfer is consummated within 120 days after the date
of the Notice; provided that any such sale or other transfer is also effected in accordance with the Bylaw Restrictions, the transfer restrictions set forth in the Plan and any Applicable Laws and the Proposed Transferee agrees in writing that the
Plan, the Bylaw Restrictions, and the provisions of the Option Agreement and this Agreement, including this Section 4 and the waiver of statutory information rights in Section 11, shall continue to apply to the Shares in the hands of such
Proposed Transferee. The Company, in consultation with its legal counsel, may require the Holder to provide an opinion of counsel evidencing compliance with Applicable Laws. If the Shares described in the Notice are not transferred to the Proposed
Transferee within such period, or if the Holder proposes to change the price or other terms to make them more favorable to the Proposed Transferee, a new Notice shall be given to the Company, and the Company and/or its assignees shall again have the
right to approve such transfer and be offered the Right of First Refusal. 

  
 -14- 

 (v) Exception for Certain Family Transfers. Anything to the contrary
contained in this Section 4(b) notwithstanding, the transfer of any or all of the Shares during Holder’s lifetime or on Holder’s death by will or intestacy to Holder’s Immediate Family or a trust for the benefit of Holder’s
Immediate Family shall be exempt from the provisions of this Section 4(b). “Immediate Family” as used herein shall mean lineal descendant or antecedent, spouse (or spouse’s antecedents), father, mother, brother or sister
(or their descendants), stepchild (or their antecedents or descendants), aunt or uncle (or their antecedents or descendants), brother-in-law or sister-in-law (or their antecedents or descendants) and shall include adoptive relationships. In such case, the transferee or other recipient shall receive and hold the Shares
so transferred subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Bylaw Restrictions, and the provisions of the Option Agreement and this Agreement, including this Section 4 and Section 10, and there shall be no further transfer of such Shares
except in accordance with the terms of this Section 4, the Plan and the Bylaw Restrictions. 
 (c) Company’s Right to
Purchase upon Involuntary Transfer. In the event of any transfer by operation of law or other involuntary transfer (including death or divorce, but excluding a transfer to Immediate Family as set forth in Section 4(b)(v) above) of all
or a portion of the Shares by the record holder thereof, the Company shall have an option to purchase any or all of the Shares transferred at the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of transfer (as determined by the Company in its sole
discretion). Upon such a transfer, the Holder shall promptly notify the Secretary of the Company of such transfer. The right to purchase such Shares shall be provided to the Company for a period of 30 days following receipt by the Company of written
notice from the Holder. 
 (d) Assignment. The right of the Company to purchase any part of the Shares may be assigned in
whole or in part to any holder or holders of capital stock of the Company or other persons or organizations. 
 (e) Restrictions
Binding on Transferees. All transferees of Shares or any interest therein will receive and hold such Shares or interest subject to the Plan, the Bylaw Restrictions, and the provisions of the Option Agreement and this Agreement, including,
without limitation, Section 7 of the Option Agreement, Sections 3 and 10 of this Agreement and Section 12 of the Plan and, including, insofar as applicable, the Repurchase Option. 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 Purchaser for consideration equal to the amount to be paid by the Company hereunder. In the
event the Repurchase Option is deemed exercised by the Company pursuant to Section 4(a)(ii) hereof, the Company may deem any transferee to have transferred the Shares or interest to Purchaser prior to their purchase by the Company, and payment
of the purchase price by the Company to such transferee shall be deemed to satisfy Purchaser’s obligation to pay such transferee for such Shares or interest, and also to satisfy the Company’s obligation to pay Purchaser for such Shares or
interest. Any sale or transfer of the Shares shall be void unless the provisions of this Agreement are satisfied. 

  
 -15- 

 (f) Termination of Rights. The transfer restrictions set forth in
Section 3(b) above and Section 12 of the Plan, the Right of First Refusal granted the Company by Section 4(b) above and the right to repurchase the Shares in the event of an involuntary transfer granted the Company by
Section 4(c) above shall terminate upon (i) the first sale of Common Stock of the Company to the general public pursuant to a registration statement filed with and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the
Securities Act (other than a registration statement relating solely to the issuance of Common Stock pursuant to a business combination or an employee incentive or benefit plan) or (ii) any transfer or conversion of Shares made pursuant to a
statutory merger or statutory consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation or corporations if the common stock of the surviving corporation or any direct or indirect parent corporation thereof is registered under the Exchange Act.
Upon termination of such transfer restrictions, the Company will remove any stop-transfer notices referred to in Section 8(b) below and related to the restrictions in this Section 4 and a new stock certificate or, in the case of
uncertificated securities, notice of issuance, for the Shares not repurchased shall be issued, on request, without the legend referred to in Section 8(a)(ii) below and delivered to Holder. 

(g) Lock-Up Agreement. The lock-up provisions
set forth in Section 7 of the Option Agreement shall apply to the Shares issued upon exercise of the Option hereunder and Purchaser reaffirms Purchaser’s obligations set forth therein. 

4. Escrow of Unvested Shares. For purposes of facilitating the enforcement of the provisions of Section 4(a) above,
Purchaser agrees, immediately upon receipt of the stock certificate(s) or, in the case of uncertificated securities, notice of issuance, for the Shares subject to the Repurchase Option, to deliver any such stock certificate(s), as well as a Stock
Power in the form attached to this Agreement as Attachment A executed by Purchaser and by Purchaser’s spouse (if required for transfer), in blank, to the Secretary of the Company, or the Secretary’s designee, to hold such Shares
(and such stock certificate(s), if any) and Stock Power in escrow and to take all such actions and to effectuate all such transfers and/or releases as are required in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Purchaser hereby acknowledges that
the Secretary of the Company, or the Secretary’s designee, is so appointed as the escrow holder with the foregoing authorities as a material inducement to make this Agreement and that said appointment is coupled with an interest and is
accordingly irrevocable. Purchaser agrees that said escrow holder shall not be liable to any party hereof (or to any other party). The escrow holder may rely upon any letter, notice or other document executed by any signature purported to be genuine
and may resign at any time. Purchaser agrees that if the Secretary of the Company, or the Secretary’s designee, resigns as escrow holder for any or no reason, the Board shall have the power to appoint a successor to serve as escrow holder
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. 

  
 -16- 

 5. Investment and Taxation Representations. In connection with the purchase of
the Shares, Purchaser represents to the Company the following: 
 (a) Purchaser is aware of the Company’s business affairs and financial
condition and has acquired sufficient information about the Company to reach an informed and knowledgeable decision to acquire the Shares. Purchaser is purchasing the Shares for investment for Purchaser’s own account only and not with a view
to, or for resale in connection with, any “distribution” thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act or under any applicable provision of state law. Purchaser does not have any present intention to transfer the Shares to any
other person or entity. 
 (b) Purchaser understands that the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act by reason of a
specific exemption therefrom, which exemption depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of Purchaser’s investment intent as expressed herein. 

(c) Purchaser further acknowledges and understands that the securities must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered under
the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. Purchaser further acknowledges and understands that the Company is under no obligation to register the securities. 

(d) Purchaser is familiar with the provisions of Rule 144, promulgated under the Securities Act, which, in substance, permits limited public
resale of “restricted securities” acquired, directly or indirectly, from the issuer of the securities (or from an affiliate of such issuer), in a non-public offering subject to the satisfaction of
certain conditions. Purchaser understands that the Company provides no assurances as to whether he or she will be able to resell any or all of the Shares pursuant to Rule 144, which rule requires, among other things, that the Company be subject to
the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, that resales of securities take place only after the holder of the Shares has held the Shares for certain specified time periods, and under certain circumstances, that resales of securities be limited
in volume and take place only pursuant to brokered transactions. Notwithstanding this Section 6(d), Purchaser acknowledges and agrees to the restrictions set forth in Section 6(e) below. 

(e) Purchaser further understands that in the event all of the applicable requirements of Rule 144 are not satisfied, registration under the
Securities Act, compliance with Regulation A, or some other registration exemption will be required; and that, notwithstanding the fact that Rule 144 is not exclusive, the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission has expressed its opinion
that persons proposing to sell private placement securities other than in a registered offering and otherwise than pursuant to Rule 144 will have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an exemption from registration is available for such
offers or sales, and that such persons and their respective brokers who participate in such transactions do so at their own risk. 

  
 -17- 

 (f) Purchaser represents that Purchaser is not subject to any of the “Bad Actor”
disqualifications described in Rule 506(d)(1)(i) to (viii) under the Securities Act. Purchaser also agrees to notify the Company if Purchaser becomes subject to such disqualifications after the date hereof. 

(g) Purchaser understands that Purchaser may suffer adverse tax consequences as a result of Purchaser’s purchase or disposition of the
Shares. Purchaser represents that Purchaser has consulted any tax consultants Purchaser deems advisable in connection with the purchase or disposition of the Shares and that Purchaser is not relying on the Company for any tax advice. 

6. Voting Provisions. As a condition precedent to entering into this Agreement, at the request of the Company, Purchaser shall
become a party to any voting agreement to which the Company is a party at the time of Purchaser’s execution and delivery of this Agreement, as such voting agreement may be thereafter amended from time to time (the “Voting
Agreement”), by executing an adoption agreement or counterpart signature page agreeing to be bound by and subject to the terms of the Voting Agreement and to vote the Shares in the capacity of a “Common Holder” and a
“Stockholder,” as such terms may be defined in the Voting Agreement. 
 7. Restrictive Legends and Stop-Transfer
Orders. 
 (a) Legends. Any stock certificate or, in the case of uncertificated securities, any notice of issuance,
for the Shares shall bear the following legends (as well as any legends required by the Company or applicable state and federal corporate and securities laws): 

(i) “THE SECURITIES REFERENCED HEREIN HAVE NOT
BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AND HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED
FOR INVESTMENT AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH,
THE SALE OR DISTRIBUTION THEREOF. NO SUCH SALE OR DISTRIBUTION MAY BE
EFFECTED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATED THERETO OR AN OPINION
OF COUNSEL IN A FORM SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH
REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933.” 

(ii) “THE SECURITIES REFERENCED HEREIN MAY BE
TRANSFERRED ONLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN
THE COMPANY AND THE STOCKHOLDER, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE
WITH AND MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY AT
NO CHARGE.” 
 (iii) “THE TRANSFER OF
THE SECURITIES REFERENCED HEREIN IS SUBJECT TO CERTAIN TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS SET
FORTH IN THE COMPANY’S STOCK PLAN, COPIES OF WHICH MAY BE
OBTAINED UPON WRITTEN REQUEST TO THE COMPANY AT ITS PRINCIPAL PLACE
OF BUSINESS. THE COMPANY SHALL NOT REGISTER OR OTHERWISE RECOGNIZE OR
GIVE EFFECT TO ANY PURPORTED TRANSFER OF SECURITIES THAT DOES NOT
COMPLY WITH SUCH TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS.” 
 (iv) Any legend
required by the Voting Agreement, as applicable. 
 (b) Stop-Transfer Notices. Purchaser 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. 

  
 -18- 

 (c) 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 the Plan or (ii) to treat as owner of such Shares or to accord the right to vote or pay dividends to any
purchaser or other transferee to whom such Shares shall have been so transferred. 
 (d) Required Notices. Purchaser
acknowledges that the Shares are issued and shall be held subject to all the provisions of this Section 8, the Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws of the Company and any amendments thereto, copies of which are on file at the principal
office of the Company. A statement of all of the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions granted to or imposed upon the respective classes and/or series of shares of stock of the Company and upon the holders thereof may be obtained by any
stockholder upon request and without charge, at the principal office of the Company, and the Company will furnish any stockholder, upon request and without charge, a copy of such statement. Purchaser acknowledges that the provisions of this
Section 8 shall constitute the notices required by Sections 151(f) and 202(a) of the Delaware General Corporation Law and the Purchaser hereby expressly waives the requirement of Section 151(f) of the Delaware General Corporation Law that
it receive the written notice provided for in Sections 151(f) and 202(a) of the Delaware General Corporation Law within a reasonable time after the issuance of the Shares. 

8. No Employment Rights. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect in any manner whatsoever any right with respect to continuation
of an employment or consulting relationship with the Company (any parent, subsidiary or affiliate), nor shall it interfere in any way with such employee’s or consultant’s right or the Company’s (parent’s, subsidiary’s or
affiliate’s) right to terminate his or her employment or consulting relationship at any time, with or without cause. 
 9.
Section 83(b) Election. 
 (a) Purchaser understands that Section 83(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
(the “Code”), taxes as ordinary income for a Nonstatutory Stock Option and as alternative minimum taxable income for an Incentive Stock Option the difference between the amount paid for the Shares and the Fair Market Value of the Shares as
of the date any restrictions on the Shares lapse. In this context, “restriction” means the right of the Company to buy back the Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Option set forth in Section 4(a) of this Agreement. Purchaser
understands that Purchaser may elect to be taxed at the time the Shares are purchased, rather than when and as the Repurchase Option expires, by filing an election under Section 83(b) (an “83(b) Election”) of the Code with the
Internal Revenue Service within 30 days from the date of purchase. Even if the Fair Market Value of the Shares at the time of the execution of this Agreement equals the amount paid for the Shares, the election must be made to avoid income and
alternative minimum tax treatment under Section 83(a) in the future. Purchaser understands that failure to file such an election in a timely manner may result in adverse tax consequences for Purchaser. Purchaser further understands that an
additional copy of such election form should be filed with his or her federal income tax return for the calendar year in which the date of this Agreement falls. Purchaser acknowledges that the foregoing is only a summary of the effect of United
States federal income taxation with respect to purchase of the Shares hereunder, does not purport to be complete, and is not intended or written to be used, and cannot be used, for the purposes of avoiding taxpayer penalties. Purchaser further
acknowledges that the Company has directed Purchaser to seek independent advice regarding the applicable provisions of the Code, the income tax laws of any municipality, state or foreign country in which Purchaser may reside, and the tax
consequences of Purchaser’s death, and Purchaser has consulted, and has been fully advised by, Purchaser’s own tax advisor regarding such tax laws and tax consequences or has knowingly chosen not to consult such a tax advisor. Purchaser
further acknowledges that neither the Company nor any subsidiary or representative of the Company has made any warranty or representation to Purchaser with respect to the tax consequences of Purchaser’s purchase of the Shares or of the making
or failure to make an 83(b) Election. PURCHASER (AND NOT THE COMPANY, ITS AGENTS OR ANY OTHER PERSON) SHALL BE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR APPROPRIATELY FILING SUCH FORM WITH THE IRS, EVEN IF PURCHASER REQUESTS THE COMPANY, ITS AGENTS OR ANY OTHER PERSON
MAKE THIS FILING ON PURCHASER’S BEHALF. 

  
 -19- 

 (b) Purchaser agrees that he or she will execute and deliver to the Company with this
executed Agreement a copy of the Acknowledgment and Statement of Decision Regarding Section 83(b) Election (the “Acknowledgment”) attached hereto as Attachment B. Purchaser further agrees that he or she will execute and
submit with the Acknowledgment a copy of the 83(b) Election attached hereto as Attachment C (for tax purposes in connection with the early exercise of an option) if Purchaser has indicated in the Acknowledgment his or her decision to make
such an election. 
 10. Waiver of Statutory Information Rights. Purchaser acknowledges and understands that, but for the
waiver made herein, Purchaser would be entitled, upon written demand under oath stating the purpose thereof, to inspect for any proper purpose, and to make copies and extracts from, the Company’s stock ledger, a list of its stockholders, and
its other books and records, and the books and records of subsidiaries of the Company, if any, under the circumstances and in the manner provided in Section 220 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (any and all such rights, and any and all
such other rights of Purchaser as may be provided for in Section 220, the “Inspection Rights”). In light of the foregoing, until the first sale of Common Stock of the Company to the general public pursuant to a registration
statement filed with and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Purchaser hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives the Inspection Rights, whether such Inspection Rights would
be exercised or pursued directly or indirectly pursuant to Section 220 or otherwise, and covenants and agrees never to directly or indirectly commence, voluntarily aid in any way, prosecute, assign, transfer, or cause to be commenced any claim,
action, cause of action, or other proceeding to pursue or exercise the Inspection Rights. The foregoing waiver applies to the Inspection Rights of Purchaser in Purchaser’s capacity as a stockholder and shall not affect any rights of a director,
in his or her capacity as such, under Section 220. The foregoing waiver shall not apply to any contractual inspection rights of Purchaser under any written agreement with the Company. 

11. Miscellaneous. 

(a) Governing Law. The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of this Agreement, and all acts and transactions

 CONFLUENT, INC. 

AMENDED AND RESTATED 2014 STOCK PLAN 

RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT 

Pursuant to your Restricted Stock Unit Grant Notice (the “Grant Notice”) and this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement (the
“Agreement”), Confluent, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), has granted you (the “Participant”) a restricted stock unit award covering the number of units set forth in the Grant Notice,
each of which represents one (1) share of the Company’s Common Stock (the “RSUs”). Capitalized terms not explicitly defined in this Agreement or in the Grant Notice but defined in the Confluent, Inc. Amended and Restated
2014 Stock Plan (the “Plan”) will have the same definitions as in the Plan. 
 1.    No
Stockholder Rights. Unless and until such time as Shares are issued pursuant to the Agreement in settlement of vested RSUs, Participant shall not own or have any rights in or to the Shares allocated to the RSUs, including, without
limitation, the right to receive dividends (or dividend equivalents) or to vote such Shares. 
 2.    No
Transfer. The Grant Notice, this Agreement, the RSUs and any interest therein shall not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated, or otherwise disposed of. 

3.    Termination. If Participant’s Continuous Service Status terminates at any time for any reason,
all RSUs for which vesting is no longer possible under the terms of the Grant Notice and this Agreement shall be forfeited to the Company upon such termination of Continuous Service Status, and all rights of Participant to such RSUs shall
immediately terminate at such time. 
 (a)    Continuous Service Status. For purposes of
the Grant Notice and this Agreement, Participant’s Continuous Service Status will be considered terminated as of the date Participant no longer actively provides services as an Employee or Consultant regardless of the reason for such
termination and whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction where Participant provides services or by the terms of Participant’s employment or service agreement, if any (the “Termination
Date”). Subject to the terms of the Plan and Applicable Laws, the Company shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when Participant no longer actively provides services for purposes of the RSUs, the Grant Notice and this Agreement,
including whether Participant actively provides services on any leave of absence. 
 (b)    Leave
of Absence. Continuous Service Status will not be extended by any contractual notice period or any period of “garden leave” or similar notice period mandated under employment laws in the jurisdiction where Participant provides
services or by the terms of Participant’s employment or service agreement, if any, unless otherwise determined by the Company in its sole discretion. Continuous Service Status shall be deemed to continue for any purpose of the Grant Notice or
this Agreement while the Participant is on a bona fide leave of absence, if (i) such leave was approved by the Company in writing, or (ii) the continued crediting of Continuous Service Status is expressly required by the terms of such
leave, Company policy or by Applicable Laws (as determined by the Company). Continuous Service Status shall be deemed to terminate when such leave ends, unless the Participant immediately returns to active work. 

  
 1 

 4.    Responsibility for Taxes. 

(a)    As a condition to the grant, vesting, and settlement of the RSUs, Participant acknowledges that,
regardless of any action taken by the Company or, if different, Participant’s employer (the “Employer”), the ultimate liability for all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or other
tax-related items or required deductions or payments legally applicable to him or her (the “Tax-Related Items”) related to the receipt, vesting,
settlement or cancellation of the RSUs, the issuance or subsequent sale of the Shares allocated to the RSUs, the receipt of any dividends or participation in the Plan (the “Tax-Related
Events”) is and remains Participant’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company and/or the Employer. Participant further acknowledges and agrees that Participant is solely responsible for filing all
relevant documentation that may be required in relation to the RSUs or any Tax-Related Items (other than filings or documentation that pursuant to Applicable Laws are the specific obligation of the Company or
any Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate (collectively including the Company, the “Company Group,” and each entity individually, a “Company Group” entity)) such as, but not limited to, personal income tax returns or
reporting statements in relation to the Tax-Related Events or the holding of Shares issued upon settlement of the RSUs in a bank or brokerage account. 

(b)    Participant further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer: (i) make no
representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the RSUs, including, but not limited to, the
Tax-Related Events; and (ii) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the RSUs to reduce or eliminate Participant’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Participant also understands that Applicable Laws may require varying RSU or Share valuation methods for purposes of calculating
Tax-Related Items, and the Company and/or the Employer assume no responsibility or liability in relation to any such valuation or for any calculation or reporting of income or
Tax-Related Items that may be required of Participant under Applicable Laws. 

(c)    Further, if Participant is subject to Tax-Related Items in
more than one jurisdiction between the Date of Grant and the date of any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, Participant acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or
account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction. 

(d)    Prior to a relevant taxable or tax withholding event, Participant agrees to make adequate
arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, Participant authorizes the Company and/or the Employer, or their respective agents, at their
discretion, to satisfy their tax and/or withholding obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by (i) withholding from Participant’s wages or other compensation paid to Participant by the
Company and/or the Employer, (ii) withholding from proceeds of the sale of Shares acquired pursuant to the RSUs either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company and/or the Employer (on Participant’s
behalf pursuant to this authorization) without further consent, (iii) withholding Shares that would otherwise be issued upon settlement of the RSUs, or (iv) such other method as determined by the Company and/or the Employer to be in
compliance with Applicable Laws. 
 (e)    Depending on the method of satisfying the tax and/or
withholding obligations with regard to the Tax-Related Items, the Company and/or the Employer may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering the applicable
minimum statutory withholding amounts or other applicable tax or withholding rates, including the maximum applicable rates. If the Company/and or the Employer over-pays or over-withholds any amount, it will refund such amount to Participant in cash
and Participant will have no entitlement to the Share equivalent. 

  
 2 

 (f)    Finally, Participant agrees to pay to the Company
and/or the Employer the amount of any Tax-Related Items that the Company and/or the Employer may be required to pay, withhold or account for as a result of a Tax-Related
Event that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described in this Section 4. The Company may refuse to issue or deliver the Shares or the proceeds of the sale of Shares if Participant fails to comply with his or her obligations in
connection with the Tax-Related Items. 
 5.    Nature of Grant.
In accepting the RSUs, Participant acknowledges, understands and agrees to the following. 
 (a)    The
Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, is discretionary in nature, and may be amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time, to the extent permitted by the Plan. 

(b)    The grant of the RSUs is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right
to receive future grants of restricted stock units, or benefits in lieu of restricted stock units, even if restricted stock units have been granted in the past. 

(c)    All decisions with respect to future restricted stock units or other grants, if any, will be at the
sole discretion of the Company. 
 (d)    Participant is voluntarily participating in the Plan. 

(e)    The RSUs and the Shares allocated to the RSUs are not intended to replace any pension rights or
compensation and are outside the scope of Participant’s employment or service contract, if any. 

(f)    The RSUs and the Shares allocated to the RSUs, and the income and value of the same, are not part of
normal or expected compensation for any purpose, including, without limitation, calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal,
end-of-service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar payments. 

(g)    The future value of the Shares is unknown, indeterminable, and cannot be predicted with certainty.

 (h)    If the RSUs are settled and Participant receives some or all of the Shares allocated to the
RSUs, the value of such Shares may increase or decrease in value. 
 (i)    No claim or entitlement to
compensation or damages shall arise from forfeiture of the RSUs resulting from the termination of Participant’s Continuous Service Status (for any reason whatsoever, whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of employment laws in
the jurisdiction where Participant is employed or the terms of Participant’s employment or service agreement, if any) (such claim or entitlement, a “claim”), and in consideration of the grant of the RSUs to which Participant is
otherwise not entitled, Participant irrevocably (i) agrees never to institute a claim against any Company Group entity, (ii) waives his or her ability, if any, to bring a claim, and (iii) releases all Company Group entities from any
such claim. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, a claim is allowed by a court of competent jurisdiction, Participant, by participating in the Plan, irrevocably agrees (and shall be deemed irrevocably to have agreed) not to pursue such claim and to
execute and/or accept any and all documents necessary to request dismissal or withdrawal of such claim. 

  
 3 

 (j)    Unless otherwise provided in the Plan or by the
Company in its discretion, the RSUs and the benefits evidenced by this Agreement do not create any entitlement to have the RSUs or any such benefits transferred to, or assumed by, another company or any entitlement to have the RSUs or the benefits
exchanged, cashed out or substituted for, in connection with any corporate transaction affecting the Shares. 

(k)    No Company Group entity shall be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between
Participant’s local currency and the United States Dollar or the selection by a Company Group entity in its sole discretion of an applicable foreign exchange rate that may affect the value of the RSUs (or the calculation of income or Tax-Related Items thereunder) or of any amounts due to Participant pursuant to the settlement of the RSUs and issuance of Shares, any dividends on the Shares issued or the subsequent sale of the Shares issued. 

6.    Limitations on Transfer of Shares. In addition to any other limitation on transfer created by the
Company’s Bylaws, this Agreement, the Grant Notice and the Plan, Participant shall not assign, encumber or dispose of any interest in the Shares issued pursuant to this Agreement except in compliance with Applicable Laws. 

7.    Investment and Taxation Representations. In connection with the receipt of the RSUs and the Shares the
issued upon settlement of the RSUs (if they have not been registered under the Securities Act), Participant represents to the Company the following. 

(a)    Participant is aware of the Company’s business affairs and financial condition and has acquired
sufficient information about the Company to reach an informed and knowledgeable decision to acquire the Shares issued pursuant to this Agreement. Participant is or will be acquiring the Shares for investment for Participant’s own account only
and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any “distribution” thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act or under any applicable provision of state law. Participant does not have any present intention to transfer the
Shares issued pursuant to this Agreement to any other person or entity. 
 (b)    Participant understands
that the Shares issued pursuant to this Agreement have not been registered under the Securities Act by reason of a specific exemption therefrom, which exemption depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of Participant’s investment
intent as expressed herein. 
 (c)    Participant further acknowledges and understands that the
securities must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. Participant further acknowledges and understands that the Company is under no obligation to
register the securities. 
 (d)    Participant is familiar with the provisions of Rule 144, promulgated
under the Securities Act, which, in substance, permits limited public resale of “restricted securities” acquired, directly or indirectly, from the issuer of the securities (or from an affiliate of such issuer), in a non-public offering subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. Participant understands that the Company provides no assurances as to whether he or she will be able to resell any or all of the Shares pursuant
to Rule 144, which rule requires, among other things, that the Company be subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, that resales of securities take place only after the holder of the Shares has held the Shares for certain specified
time periods, and under certain circumstances, that resales of securities be limited in volume and take place only pursuant to brokered transactions. Notwithstanding this Section 7(d), Participant acknowledges and agrees to the restrictions set
forth in Section 7(e) below. 

  
 4 

 (e)    Participant further understands that in the event
all of the applicable requirements of Rule 144 are not satisfied, the Shares must either be registered under the Securities Act, or comply with Regulation A or some other registration exemption to the Securities Act. Participant also understands
that, notwithstanding the fact that Rule 144 is not an exclusive exemption, the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission has expressed its opinion that persons proposing to sell private placement securities other than in a registered offering
or pursuant to Rule 144 will have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an exemption from registration is available for such offer or sale, and that such persons and their respective brokers who participate in such transactions do so at
their own risk. 
 (f)    Participant understands that Participant may suffer adverse tax consequences as
a result of the Tax-Related Events. Participant represents that Participant has consulted the tax consultants Participant deems advisable regarding the Tax-Related Items
and the Tax-Related Events and is not relying on the Company for any tax advice. 

8.    Section 409A. All payments made and benefits provided under this Agreement are intended to be exempt
from the requirements of Section 409A to the maximum extent permitted pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) so that none of the payments or benefits will be subject to the adverse
tax penalties imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities herein will be interpreted to make the payments and benefits be so exempt. In no event will the Company reimburse Participant for any taxes or other penalties that may be imposed on
Participant as a result of Section 409A and, by accepting the RSUs, Participant hereby agrees to indemnify the Company for any liability that arises as a result of Section 409A. 

9.    Securities Law Compliance. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Shares will not
be issued pursuant to this Agreement unless the Shares are then registered under the Securities Act or the Company has determined that the issuance is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. The issuance of Shares pursuant
to this Agreement also must comply with other Applicable Laws governing the RSUs and the Shares, and the Company is not obligated to, and will not have any liability for failure to, issue or deliver any Shares upon settlement of the RSUs unless such
issuance or delivery would comply with the Applicable Laws. Whether an issuance or delivery of Shares is compliant with Applicable Laws will be determined by the Company in consultation with its legal counsel. 

10.    Lock-Up Agreement. In connection with an IPO and upon the
request of the Company or the underwriters managing such offering of the Company’s securities, Participant hereby agrees 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 or 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 180 days) from the effective
date of such registration as may be requested by the Company or such managing underwriters and to execute and/or accept an agreement reflecting the foregoing as may be requested by the underwriters at the time of the Company’s IPO (as defined
in the Grant Notice). 
 11.    Restrictive Legends and Stop-Transfer Orders 

(a)    Legends. Any certificate representing the Shares issued pursuant to this Agreement
shall bear such legends as are required by the Company or Applicable Laws, including the following: 

(i)    “THE SHARES REPRESENTED HEREBY MAY NOT BE SOLD, ASSIGNED, TRANSFERRED, ENCUMBERED OR IN ANY
MANNER DISPOSED OF, EXCEPT IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE TERMS OF A WRITTEN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND THE REGISTERED HOLDER OF THE SHARES (OR THE PREDECESSOR IN INTEREST TO THE SHARES). THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY WILL UPON WRITTEN REQUEST FURNISH
A COPY OF SUCH AGREEMENT TO THE HOLDER HEREOF WITHOUT CHARGE.” 

  
 5 

 (ii)    “THE SHARES REPRESENTED HEREBY MAY NOT BE
SOLD, ASSIGNED, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED, ENCUMBERED OR IN ANY MANNER DISPOSED OF, EXCEPT IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE BYLAWS OF THE COMPANY. COPIES OF THE BYLAWS OF THE COMPANY MAY BE OBTAINED UPON WRITTEN REQUEST TO THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY.” 

(iii)    All certificates evidencing Shares purchased under this Agreement in an unregistered transaction
shall bear the following legend: 
 (A)    “THE SHARES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, PLEDGED, OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION THEREOF UNDER SUCH ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY AND ITS COUNSEL, THAT SUCH
REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.” 
 (b)    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. 
 (c)    Refusal to
Transfer. The Company shall not be required (i) to transfer on its books any Shares issued pursuant to this Agreement that have been sold or otherwise transferred in violation of any of the provisions of this Agreement or
(ii) to treat as owner of such Shares or to accord the right to vote or pay dividends to any purchaser or other transferee to whom such Shares shall have been so transferred. 

12.    No Employment Rights. Nothing contained in this Agreement, the Grant Notice or the Plan is intended
to constitute or create a contract of employment, nor shall it constitute or create the right to remain associated with or in the employ of the Company or any Group Member entity for any particular period of time. Nothing in this Agreement, the
Grant Notice or the Plan shall affect in any manner whatsoever the right or power of the Company, or a Group Member entity to terminate Participant’s employment or consulting relationship, for any reason, with or without cause, subject to
Applicable Laws. 
 13.    Waiver of Statutory Information Rights. Participant acknowledges and
understands that, but for the waiver made herein, upon delivery of any Shares issued to Participant pursuant to this Agreement, Participant would be entitled, upon written demand under oath stating the purpose thereof, to inspect for any proper
purpose, and to make copies and extracts from, the Company’s stock ledger, a list of its stockholders, and its other books and records, and the books and records of subsidiaries of the Company, if any, under the circumstances and in the manner
provided in Section 220 of the General Corporation Law of Delaware (any and all such rights, and any and all such other rights of Participant as may be provided for in Section 220, the “Inspection Rights”). In light of the
foregoing, until an IPO, Participant hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives the Inspection Rights, whether such Inspection Rights would be exercised or pursued directly or indirectly pursuant to Section 220 or otherwise, and covenants
and agrees never to directly or indirectly commence, voluntarily aid in any way, prosecute, assign, transfer, or cause to be commenced any claim, action, cause of action, or other proceeding to pursue or exercise the Inspection Rights. The foregoing
waiver applies to the Inspection Rights of Participant in Participant’s capacity as a stockholder and shall not affect any rights of a director, in his or her capacity as such, under Section 220. The foregoing waiver shall not apply to any
contractual inspection rights of Participant under any written agreement with the Company. 

  
 6 

 14.    No Advice Regarding Grant. The Company is not
providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding Participant’s participation in the Plan; Participant’s receipt, vesting or settlement of the RSUs or the Shares allocated thereto; or the
sale of such Shares. Participant is hereby advised to consult with his or her own personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding his or her participation in the Plan and the RSUs before accepting the RSUs or otherwise taking any action related
to the RSUs or the Plan. 
 15.    Data Privacy.  

(a)    Participant hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer,
in electronic or other form, of Participant’s personal data as described in this Agreement and any other Award materials by and among the Company Group entities for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing
Participant’s participation in the Plan. 
 (b)    Participant understands that the
Company Group entities may hold certain personal information about Participant, including, but not limited to, Participant’s name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary,
nationality, job title, any Shares or directorships held in the Company, details of all Awards, or any other entitlement to Shares awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in Participant’s favor
(“Data”), for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Plan. 

(c)    Participant understands that Data will be transferred to such stock plan service provider as
may be selected by the Company, presently or the in future, which may be assisting the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. Participant understands that the recipients of the Data may be located in the United
States or elsewhere, and that the recipient’s country (e.g., the United States) may have different data privacy laws and protections than Participant’s country. Participant authorizes the Company, the stock plan service provider as may be
selected by 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 purposes of implementing, administering and managing Participant’s participation in the Plan. Further, Participant understands that he or she is providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis. If Participant
does not consent, or if Participant later seeks to revoke his or her consent, his or her Continuous Service Status will not be adversely affected; the only adverse consequence of refusing or withdrawing Participant’s consent is that the Company
would not be able to grant Participant RSUs, Awards or any other equity awards or administer or maintain such awards. Therefore, Participant understands that refusing or withdrawing his or her consent may affect Participant’s ability to
participate in the Plan. For more information on the consequences of Participant’s refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, Participant understands that he or she may contact his or her local human resources representative.

 16.    Miscellaneous. 

(a)    Governing Law. 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 California, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law. For purposes of any action, lawsuit or other
proceedings brought to enforce this Agreement, relating to it, or arising from it, the parties hereby submit and consent to the sole and exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of California, or the federal courts for the United States for the Northern

the Plan, no modification of or amendment to this Agreement, nor any waiver of any rights under this Agreement, shall be effective unless in writing and executed and/or accepted 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. 

(d)    Severability. If one or more provisions of this Agreement, the Grant Notice or
the Plan are held to be unenforceable under Applicable Laws, 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, the Grant Notice and the Plan, (ii) the balance of the Agreement, the Grant Notice and the Plan shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and (iii) the balance
of the Agreement, the Grant Notice and the Plan shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms. 

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

(f)    Imposition of Other Requirements. The Company reserves the right to impose
other requirements on Participant’s participation in the Plan, on the RSUs and on any Shares allocated to the RSUs, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons, and to require
Participant to sign and/or accept any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing. Participant also acknowledges that the Applicable Laws of the country in which Participant is residing or working at the
time of grant, vesting and settlement of the RSUs or the sale of Shares received pursuant to the RSUs (including any rules or regulations governing securities, foreign exchange, tax, labor, or other matters) may subject Participant to additional
procedural or regulatory requirements that Participant is and will be solely responsible for and must fulfill. Such requirements may be outlined in but are not limited to those provided in any Addendum. Notwithstanding any provision herein, the RSUs
and Participant’s participation in the Plan shall be subject to the special terms, conditions and disclosures set forth in any applicable Addendum.

entity or any other matter, including documents and/or notices required to be delivered to Participant by applicable securities law or any other Applicable Laws or the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws. By accepting the RSUs,
whether electronically or otherwise, Participant hereby consents to receive such documents and notices by such electronic delivery and agrees to participate in the Plan through an on-line or electronic system
established and maintained by the Company or a third party designated by the Company, including but not limited to the use of electronic signatures or click-through electronic acceptance of terms and conditions. 

(k)    California Corporate Securities Law. THE SALE OF THE SECURITIES WHICH ARE THE
SUBJECT OF THIS AGREEMENT HAS NOT BEEN QUALIFIED WITH THE COMMISSIONER OF BUSINESS OVERSIGHT OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA AND THE ISSUANCE OF THE SECURITIES OR THE PAYMENT OR RECEIPT OF ANY PART OF THE CONSIDERATION THEREFOR PRIOR TO THE QUALIFICATION
IS UNLAWFUL, UNLESS THE SALE OF SECURITIES IS EXEMPT FROM QUALIFICATION BY SECTION 25100, 25102 OR 25105 OF THE CALIFORNIA CORPORATIONS CODE. THE RIGHTS OF ALL PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT ARE EXPRESSLY CONDITIONED UPON THE QUALIFICATION BEING

who are working or residing in the countries listed below and that may be material to Participant’s participation in the Plan. Such notices, disclaimers, and/or terms and conditions may also apply, as from the date of grant, if the Participant
moves to or otherwise is or becomes subject to the Applicable Laws or Company policies of the country listed. However, because foreign exchange regulations and other local laws are subject to frequent change, Participant is advised to seek advice
from his own personal legal and tax advisor prior to accepting the RSUs or holding or selling Shares acquired under the Plan. The Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding
Participant’s acceptance of the RSUs or participation in the Plan. Unless otherwise noted below, capitalized terms shall have the same meaning assigned to them under the Plan, the Grant Notice, and the Agreement. This Country-Specific Addendum
forms part of the Agreement and should be read in conjunction with the Agreement and the Plan. 
 Securities Law Notice: Unless
otherwise noted, neither the Company nor the Shares are registered with any local stock exchange or under the control of any local securities regulator outside the United States. The Agreement (of which this Country-Specific Addendum is a part), the
Grant Notice, the Plan, and any other communications or materials that Participant may receive regarding participation in the Plan do not constitute advertising or an offering of securities outside the United States, and the issuance of securities
described in any Plan-related documents is not intended for public offering or circulation in Participant’s jurisdiction.
