 Dear Mary: 
  
 This letter sets forth the substance of the separation agreement (the “Agreement”) that Blue Martini Software, Inc. (“Blue Martini”)
is offering to you to aid in your employment transition. This offer is open until April 13, 2004; if you have not signed and returned the original of this letter to me by then, this offer will expire and your employment will end on that date, in
which case that will be your Separation Date. 
  
 1.
Separation.    If you sign this Agreement, you will continue your employment through Friday, June 4, 2004 (the “Separation Date). Between now and the Separation Date, you will be expected to perform the following, to
your manager’s satisfaction: transitioning of your responsibilities, completion of your pending projects (including recruiting your replacement), and performance of such other duties as your manager may instruct you. Unless Blue Martini gives
you written direction to the contrary, effective on the Separation Date you will no longer be authorized to perform any work or to make any commitments on behalf of Blue Martini, and if you participate in any organizations through your work with
Blue Martini, you must resign from those positions unless otherwise directed by the Company in writing. 
  
 2. Accrued Salary and Paid Time Off.    On or before the third business day after the Separation Date, Blue Martini will pay
you all accrued salary (including refund of any ESPP balance), and all accrued and unused PTO earned through the Separation Date, subject to standard payroll deductions and withholdings. You are entitled to these payments regardless of whether or
not you sign this Agreement.  
  
 3. Severance
Benefits.    If you sign this Agreement, you will be eligible to receive the benefits set forth in this paragraph: You will be allowed to continue in your current position until your Separation Date. If, from now through the
Separation Date, you assist Blue Martini to your manager’s satisfaction in ensuring an orderly and professional transition of your responsibilities and sign the Secondary Release, Blue Martini will pay you, as severance, a lump sum amount of
$45,000 (which is equivalent to your salary for three months), subject to standard payroll deductions and withholdings. This amount will be paid and sent out via regular US mail within ten (10) business days of either the Effective Date of the
Secondary Release of Claims or the Separation Date, whichever is later. 
  
 4. Health Insurance.    Your medical, dental, and vision benefits will continue in effect until the last day of the month of your Separation Date, whether or not you sign this Agreement. If you sign this Agreement
and elect COBRA coverage, the Company will reimburse your COBRA payments for three (3) months. You may continue your benefits beyond such date at your own expense, to the extent provided by the federal COBRA law (or, if applicable, state insurance
laws) and Blue Martini’s current group health insurance policies. Please note: If you 

 
wish to continue your benefits under COBRA, you MUST sign up for COBRA coverage. You should receive the enrollment package from COBRA Management
Solutions (CMS) within four weeks of your Separation Date at the latest. If you do not receive the enrollment package from CMS, you must contact them at 1-866-517- 7580. Blue Martini is not responsible for enrolling you in continuation
of your benefits under COBRA; this is something you must take care of yourself through CMS. Details concerning your flexible spending account and 401(k) plan account, if applicable, will be provided to you in your exit interview. Please
refer to the Separation Overview for instructions on how to register for COBRA and information about other forms of medical coverage available to you. 
  
 5. Stock Options.    As set forth in your stock option Closing Statement (enclosed), you were
granted an option to purchase shares of Blue Martini’s common stock pursuant to Blue Martini’s 2000 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Plan”). Under the terms of the Plan and your stock option grant, vesting will cease as of
the Separation Date. Your grant(s) and your vesting to date are summarized in the Closing Statement. Regardless of whether you do, or do not, sign and return the Agreement, you will have ninety (90) days from the Separation Date in which to exercise
your vested stock options, after which they will expire. If you purchased early-exercised shares, Blue Martini has the option to buy back any unvested shares within 90 days of the Separation Date, and will notify you of its decision before the end
of that 90-day period. Please contact Marlene Manzanares at (650) 356-7889 if you have any questions regarding stock options.  
  
 6. Employee Stock Purchase Plan.    Blue Martini’s 2000 Employee Stock Purchase Plan shall govern the terms and conditions
of your participation in and entitlement to benefits under Blue Martini’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan.  
  
 7. Other Compensation or Benefits.    You acknowledge that, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, you will not
receive any additional compensation, severance or benefits after the Separation Date. 
  
 8. Expense Reimbursements.    You must submit your final documented expense reimbursement statement reflecting all business expenses you incurred through the Separation Date, within thirty
(30) days after your Separation Date. Blue Martini will reimburse you for these expenses pursuant to its regular business practice. 
  
 9. Return of Blue Martini Property.    By the Separation Date, you must return (in good condition) all Blue Martini equipment,
information, and other property in your possession. This includes, for example: computers, peripherals, disks, zip drives, files (electronic and hard-copy), email, sales presentations, notes, records, business plans and forecasts, financial
information, specifications, credit cards, identification badges, keys, and key-cards. If you have electronic copies of any Blue Martini proprietary or confidential information stored on your own personal computer or storage media, you must return
those files (which may include email, documents, spreadsheets, PowerPoint presentations, etc.) to Blue Martini and destroy any copies left in your possession. 
  

10. Proprietary Information Obligations.    You acknowledge your continuing obligations (both during and after your
employment) under your Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement, including your obligations not to solicit Company employees and not to use or disclose any confidential or proprietary information of Blue Martini without prior written
authorization from a duly authorized representative of Blue Martini. A copy of your Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit A. 
  
 11. Reference Checks.    In accordance with Blue Martini company policy, Blue Martini will
confirm title and dates of employment only. Requests for verification of salary must be accompanied by written authorization from you. All requests for reference checks must be forwarded to HR Operations. 
  
 12. Confidentiality.    The provisions of this
Agreement will be held in strictest confidence by you and Blue Martini and will not be publicized or disclosed in any manner whatsoever; provided, however, that: (a) you may disclose this Agreement to your immediate family; (b) the parties
may disclose this Agreement in confidence to their respective attorneys, accountants, auditors, tax preparers, and financial advisors; (c) Blue Martini may disclose this Agreement as necessary to fulfill standard or legally required corporate
reporting or disclosure 

 
requirements; and (d) the parties may disclose this Agreement insofar as such disclosure may be necessary to enforce its terms or as otherwise required by
law. In particular, and without limitation, you agree not to disclose the terms of this Agreement to any current or former Blue Martini employee. 
  
 13. Nondisparagement.    Both you and Blue Martini (through its officers and directors) agree not to disparage the other party,
and the other party’s officers, directors, employees, shareholders and agents, in any manner likely to be harmful to them or their business, business reputation or personal reputation; provided that both you and Blue Martini will respond
accurately and fully to any question, inquiry or request for information when required by legal process. 
  
 14. Release.    In exchange for the payments and other consideration under this Agreement to which you would not otherwise be
entitled, you hereby release, acquit and forever discharge Blue Martini, its parents and subsidiaries, and its and their current and former officers, directors, agents, servants, employees, attorneys, shareholders, successors, assigns and
affiliates, of and from any and all claims, liabilities, demands, causes of action, costs, expenses, attorneys’ fees, damages, indemnities and obligations of every kind and nature, in law, equity, or otherwise, known and unknown, suspected and
unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed, arising out of or in any way related to agreements, events, acts or conduct at any time prior to and including the execution date of this Agreement, including but not limited to: all such claims and demands
directly or indirectly arising out of or in any way connected with your employment with Blue Martini or the termination of that employment; claims or demands related to salary, bonuses, commissions, stock, stock options, or any other ownership
interests in Blue Martini, vacation pay, fringe benefits, expense reimbursements, severance pay, or any other form of compensation; claims pursuant to any federal, state or local law, statute, or cause of action including, but not limited to, the
federal Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended; the federal Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990; the federal Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended (“ADEA”); the California Fair Employment and Housing Act, as amended;
tort law; contract law; wrongful discharge; discrimination; harassment; fraud; defamation; emotional distress; and breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing. 
  
 15. ADEA Waiver.    You acknowledge that you are knowingly and voluntarily waiving and releasing
any rights you may have under the ADEA, as amended. You also acknowledge that the consideration given for the waiver and release in the preceding paragraph hereof is in addition to anything of value to which you were already entitled. You further
acknowledge that you have been provided with a disclosure as required by the ADEA (see Exhibit B (ADEA Disclosure)), and that you have been advised by this writing, as required by the ADEA, that: (a) your waiver and release do not apply to any
rights or claims that may arise after the execution date of this Agreement; (b) you have been advised hereby that you have the right to consult with an attorney prior to executing this Agreement; (c) you have twenty-one (21) days to consider this
Agreement (although you may choose to voluntarily execute this Agreement earlier); (d) you have seven (7) days following the execution of this Agreement by the parties to revoke the Agreement; (e) you have received the disclosure required under 29
U.S.C. section 626(f)(1)(H) (attached as Exhibit B), and (f) this Agreement will not be effective until the date upon which the revocation period has expired, which will be the eighth day after this Agreement is executed by you, provided that Blue
Martini has also executed this Agreement by that date (“Effective Date”). 
  
 16. Section 1542 Waiver.    YOU UNDERSTAND THAT THIS AGREEMENT INCLUDES A RELEASE OF ALL KNOWN AND UNKNOWN CLAIMS. In giving this release, which includes claims which may be unknown to me at
present, you acknowledge that you have read and understand Section 1542 of the California Civil Code which reads as follows: “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at
the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.” You hereby expressly waive and relinquish all rights and benefits under that section and any law of any jurisdiction of
similar effect with respect to your release of any unknown or unsuspected claims you may have against Blue Martini. 
  
 17. Secondary Release of Claims.     In exchange for the benefits under this Agreement, you furthermore agree that on the
Separation Date, you will execute the Secondary Release Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit B. Executing this release is a requirement for obtaining the benefits described in this Agreement, including those in Sections 3 and 4 above. 

 18. Miscellaneous.    This Agreement, including any Exhibits, constitutes the
complete, final and exclusive embodiment of the entire agreement between you and Blue Martini with regard to this subject matter. It is entered into without reliance on any promise or representation written or oral, other than those expressly
contained herein, and it supersedes any other such promises, warranties or representations (including any in that certain letter agreement between you and the Company dated October 17, 2002),. This Agreement may not be modified or amended except in
a writing signed by both you and a duly authorized Blue Martini representative. This Agreement will bind the heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns of both you and Blue Martini, and inure to the benefit of both you and Blue Martini,
and your respective heirs, successors and assigns. If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part, this determination will not affect any other provision of this Agreement and the provision in
question will be modified by the court so as to be rendered enforceable. This Agreement will be deemed to have been entered into and will be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of California as applied to contracts made
and to be performed entirely within California. 
  
 If this
Agreement is acceptable to you, please sign below and return the original signed letter to me. 
  
 I wish you good luck in your future endeavors. 
  
 Sincerely, 
  
 BLUE MARTINI

 EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 
  
 This EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is entered into on April 8, 2004, between UNITED RENTALS, INC., a
Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Wayland R. Hicks (“Executive”). 
  
 WHEREAS, Executive is currently employed as Chief Executive Officer of the Company and serves as Vice Chairman and as a director of the Board of Directors of the Company; and 
  
 WHEREAS, Executive is party to an employment agreement with the Company dated
November 14, 1997, as amended pursuant to amendments dated as of December 24, 1999, November 14, 2000, and November 16, 2003 (the “Existing Agreement”); and 
  
 WHEREAS, the parties hereto desire to enter into this Agreement in order to set forth the terms pursuant to which the
Company will continue to employ Executive and Executive will continue to serve as the Chief Executive Officer; and 
  
 WHEREAS, the parties hereto desire that this Agreement will replace and supercede the Existing Agreement, and that as of the Effective Time (as defined
below), the Existing Agreement shall be null and void. 
  
 NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are mutually acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
  
 1. Employment and Duties. During the Term (as
hereinafter defined), the Company shall employ Executive as its Chief Executive Officer, and in such other positions as are commensurate with his status as Chief Executive Officer of the Company, as determined from time to time by the Company’s
Board of Directors (the “Board of Directors” or the “Board”). Executive shall have such duties and authorities as are customary for the Chief Executive Officer of a publicly held corporation of the size, type and nature of the
Company. 
  
 2. Term. Subject to the
provisions for termination included in this Agreement, the term of Executive’s employment hereunder shall be for a period of five years commencing as of January 1, 2004 (the “Effective Time”) and ending December 31, 2008 (the
“Term”). Unless either party gives notice of non-renewal at least 60 day prior to the end of the then current Term, the Term will extend for successive one-year renewal periods. 
  
 3. Compensation and Other Benefits. For all services
rendered by Executive to or on behalf of the Company or its Affiliates (as defined below) during the Term, the Company shall compensate Executive as follows: 
  

(a) Base Salary. Effective as of the Effective Time, the base salary payable to Executive shall be $550,000 per annum (the
“Base Salary”), with annual increases, if any, as may be approved in writing in the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Board. The Base Salary shall be payable bi-weekly in arrears in accordance with the Company’s
normal payroll practices. The official action of the Board of Directors increasing the Base Salary, if at all, shall be deemed to amend the amount of the Base Salary stated in this paragraph 3(a). 
  
 (b) Annual Incentive Bonus Plan. Executive shall be
entitled to receive, in respect of each calendar year during the Term, an annual cash incentive bonus (the “Annual Bonus”) pursuant to the terms of the Company’s Annual Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Annual Incentive
Plan”). The parties hereto acknowledge that Executive’s performance goals and target bonus amounts for 2004 have previously been provided to Executive. The performance goals and target bonus amounts for each subsequent year during the Term
shall be set forth in a performance plan to be determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board in good faith and delivered to Executive within 90 days of the beginning of each calendar year during the Term; provided that the target bonus
amounts for any such 

 
subsequent year shall not be less than the target bonus amounts for the 2004 plan year. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Annual Bonus
shall be paid to Executive at such times and in such amounts as provided in the Annual Incentive Plan. 
  
 (c) Long-Term Performance Unit Plan. The Company has approved, and proposes to submit for stockholder approval at its 2004 meeting
of stockholders, a Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “LTI Plan”) for certain officers and senior employees of the Company. The Committee of the Board that administers the LTI Plan has awarded 275,000 performance units (the “Performance
Units”) under the LTI Plan to Executive, subject to approval of the LTI Plan by the Company’s stockholders. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Performance Units shall vest and shall be paid to Executive pursuant to the
terms of the LTI Plan. 
  
 (d) Equity
Awards. 
  
 (i) Contemporaneously with the
approval of this Agreement, the Compensation Committee of the Board has awarded to Executive 200,000 Stock Units (the “Stock Unit Award”) under the Company’s 2001 Senior Stock Plan, as amended (the “Stock Plan”). The Stock
Units granted pursuant to the Stock Unit Award as aforesaid (the “Stock Units”) shall vest and become nonforfeitable as follows: (A) 33,333 Stock Units shall vest on January 1, 2005, 33,333 Stock Units shall vest on July 1, 2005, and
33,334 Stock Units shall vest on January 1, 2006 (provided in each case that Executive’s employment with the Company continues through such date), and (B) 100,000 Stock Units shall vest on December 31, 2008 (provided Executive’s employment
with the Company continues through the scheduled end of the Term without giving effect to any renewal periods). Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) in the event of a Change of Control (as defined below), any unvested Stock Units shall become
immediately vested and nonforfeitable upon the occurrence of such event, (B) in the event of the termination of Executive’s employment due to death or Disability (as defined below) on or prior to January 1, 2006, any unvested Stock Units that
were scheduled to vest on or prior to January 1, 2006, shall become immediately vested and nonforfeitable and the remaining unvested Stock Units shall be cancelled and forfeited and (C) in the event of the termination of Executive’s employment
by the Company without Cause (as defined below) or Executive’s termination for Good Reason (as defined below), then an “appropriate fraction” (as hereinafter defined) of each separate tranche of any unvested Stock Units shall become
immediately vested and nonforfeitable and the remaining unvested Stock Units shall be cancelled and forfeited. For purposes of the foregoing, the “appropriate fraction” with respect to any tranche of Stock Units means: (i) the amount of
time that has elapsed from the grant date of such Stock Units to the occurrence of the event triggering accelerated vesting divided by (ii) the total amount of time from the grant date to the scheduled vesting date for such Stock Units absent
accelerated vesting. For purposes of the foregoing, the Stock Units scheduled to vest on different dates will be considered separate tranches and the calculation of the appropriate fraction will be made separately for each tranche as if such tranche
were the only tranche (i.e., the Stock Units scheduled to vest on January 1, 2005 are one tranche, those scheduled to vest on July 1, 2005 a second tranche, those scheduled to vest on January 1, 2006 a third tranche and those scheduled to vest on
December 31, 2008 a fourth tranche). In the event of the termination of Executive’s employment by the Company for Cause, or Executive’s voluntary resignation (including retirement pursuant to paragraph 5(f) prior to the expiration of the
Term) without Good Reason (as defined below), any unvested Stock Units shall be cancelled and forfeited. The Stock Units shall be settled in the common stock of the Company on a one-for-one basis. The Stock Unit Award shall be subject to such other
terms and conditions as are provided in the grant agreement between Executive and the Company, attached hereto as Exhibit A, which terms shall not be inconsistent with this paragraph 3(d) and the Stock Plan. For the sake of clarity it is specified
that the foregoing provisions only apply to the Stock Units granted pursuant to the Stock Unit Award and not to any other awards under the Stock Plan (which are or will be governed by the terms of the grant agreement related to such award except as
specified in Section 3(f)). 
  
 (ii) Unless
previously registered, the Company shall file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a Form S-8 registration statement registering any Company Stock not previously 

  

 2 

 
registered and issuable upon settlement of the Stock Units, the Performance Units and any other equity award previously granted, or to be granted, to
Executive, whether pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise. Such Form S-8 shall be filed not later than the date on which such Stock Units, Performance Units or other equity awards become vested. Executive acknowledges that the number of shares of
Common Stock that may be issued upon the settlement of the Performance Units will not be ascertainable until the vesting of such Performance Units and, therefore, any Form S-8 filed before vesting will be based on an estimate and may not cover all
the shares required. Following the vesting of the Performance Units, the Company will reasonably promptly file an additional Form S-8, if required to register additional shares required to be issued in connection with the Performance Units.

  
 (e) Benefits. 
  
 (i) Benefits Generally. Executive shall be entitled
(A) to participate in the Company’s group health insurance program, group life insurance program, supplemental life insurance program, group short-term and long-term disability plans, and any tax-qualified and nonqualified retirement plans that
are generally made available to other senior executives of the Company, and (B) for so long as the Company continues to maintain or otherwise make available a corporate aircraft, to make use of such aircraft in accordance with the Company’s
current policy regarding business and personal use by executive officers. The Executive shall also be entitled to four weeks of vacation for each calendar year during the Term, and all Company holidays. The Executive shall be entitled to participate
in any other benefit plans and programs, as determined by the Board from time to time. 
  
 (ii) Additional Benefits. In addition to the benefits provided pursuant to paragraph 3(e)(i), the Company shall provide Executive
with supplemental long-term disability coverage and/or life insurance coverage (payable to the beneficiaries selected by Executive); provided, the aggregate annual premium cost of such disability and life insurance coverage during the Term does not
exceed $50,000. 
  
 (f) Change of Control.
Notwithstanding the provisions of any Option, Restricted stock, Stock Unit Award or other equity award agreement or arrangement between Executive and the Company to the contrary, any unvested Options, Restricted Stock and Stock Unit Awards held by
Executive shall automatically vest, and any restrictions on any Restricted Stock held by Executive shall automatically lapse, in the event of a Change of Control. For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms have the following meanings:

  
 “Affiliate” with respect to any
person means a person that controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with such person. 
  
 “Change of Control” shall be deemed to have occurred if 
  
 (i) any “person” is or becomes a “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, (the “Act”)) directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing 35% or more of the total voting power represented by then outstanding voting securities of the Company (calculated in
accordance with Rule 13d-3 of the Act), or has the power (whether as a result of stock ownership, revocable or irrevocable proxies, contract or otherwise) or ability to elect or cause the election of directors consisting at the time of such election
of a majority of the Board; provided, that the term “persons” is defined in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Act shall not include a trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under any employee benefit plan of the Company; or

  
 (ii) there shall be consummated a merger of
the Company, or a plan of complete liquidation of the Company, or an agreement for the sale or disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of its assets, or any other business combination of the Company with any other corporation, other
than any such merger or business combination which would result in the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting 

  

 3 

 
securities of the surviving entity) at least 50% of the total voting power represented by the voting securities of the Company or such surviving entity
outstanding immediately after such merger or business combination; or 
  
 (iii) the individuals who constituted the Board of Directors as of the date hereof (the “Incumbent Board”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the directors of the Company; provided,
however, that: (i) individuals whose election, or whose nomination for election by the Company’s shareholders, was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the Incumbent Board shall be considered, for purposes of this Agreement, members of
the Incumbent Board; and provided, further, that no individual shall be considered a member of the Incumbent Board if such individual initially assumed office as a result of either an actual or threatened “election contest” (as described
in Rule 14a-11 promulgated under the Act) (an “Election Contest”) or other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a person or entity other than the Company’s Board of Directors (a “Proxy
Contest”) including by reason of any agreement intended to avoid or settle any Election Contest or Proxy Contest. 
  
 “Options” means any and all options to purchase shares of common stock of the Company that have been, or at any time hereafter
will be, granted by the Company to Executive, under any equity-based compensation plan or arrangement maintained by the Company. 
  
 “Restricted Stock” means any and all awards of common stock of the Company that are subject to certain restrictions as to
vesting, transferability and rights as a stockholder that have been, or at any time hereafter will be, granted or awarded by the Company to Executive, under any equity-based compensation plan or arrangement maintained by the Company. 
  
 “Stock Unit Award” means an unfunded and
unsecured promise of the Company to deliver to Executive, on the applicable vesting date for such award (or such later date determined pursuant to the terms of a timely deferral election, as applicable), either one share of common stock of the
Company or cash equal to the fair value of one such share on such date, subject to the terms of the relevant grant agreement. 
  
 4. Expenses. Executive may incur reasonable business expenses while on Company business, including expenses for hotels, meals, air
travel, telephone, automobile, gasoline and similar items. The Company shall either pay such reasonable out-of-pocket expenses directly or promptly reimburse Executive for such reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Executive upon
presentation of receipts and an itemized accounting of the expenses for which reimbursement is sought and any other documentation necessary to comply with applicable Internal Revenue Service rules and regulations. 
  
 5. Termination. 
  
 (a) Payment of Accrued But Unpaid Amounts Upon
Termination. 
  
 (i) Notwithstanding any
provision in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event of termination of Executive’s employment for any reason during the Term, Executive or his beneficiaries or estate shall receive, in addition to any rights Executive may have under any
equity-based compensation plan, arrangement or agreement maintained or entered into by the Company pursuant to which Executive has received any equity-based award, or any other payments or benefits required to be made or provided under the remaining
provisions of this paragraph 5, within fifteen days (subject to the following sentence) after the effective date of termination: (i) any accrued but unpaid Base Salary for services rendered by Executive to the Company prior to the effective date of
termination; (ii) any earned and vested but unpaid Annual Bonus award for the calendar year that has ended prior to the year of termination, and for this purpose, any such Annual Bonus shall be treated as earned and vested if Executive is employed
on the last day of such calendar year; (iii) any earned and vested but unpaid awards due to Executive pursuant to the terms of the LTI Plan; (iv) a pro-rata Annual Bonus for the calendar year in which Executive’s termination occurs (other than
in connection with a voluntarily resignation by Executive on or before December 31, 2006 or

termination by the Company for Cause) pursuant to the terms of the Annual Incentive Plan; (v) reimbursement of any accrued but unpaid expenses required to be
reimbursed under this Agreement that were incurred by Executive prior to the effective date of termination; and (vi) payment for any accrued but unpaid vacation time to the extent consistent with Company policy in effect at the time of termination.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall make payment with respect to any Annual Bonus and Performance Units promptly following the date on which (i) the Company’s earnings are announced or released (a) in the case of an Annual Bonus,
for the fiscal year of the Company to which the Annual Bonus relates and (b) in the case of Performance Units, for the fiscal year of the Company as of the end of which the value of such units are to be determined in accordance with the LTI Plan;
and (ii) the Compensation Committee of the Board has certified in writing the extent to which Executive is entitled to the payment of such Annual Bonus and Performance Units. 
  
 (ii) Except as specifically provided in this Agreement or under the terms of any incentive compensation,
employee pension or welfare benefit plan in effect and applicable to Executive on the effective date of termination, Executive shall have no right to receive any other compensation, or to participate in any other plan, arrangement or benefit of the
Company after such termination and all other obligations of the Company and rights of Executive under this Agreement shall terminate effective as of the effective date of termination. 
  
 (b) Termination Due to Death or Disability. Executive’s employment with the Company shall
automatically terminate upon Executive’s death. If Executive becomes “Disabled” (as hereinafter defined) at any time during the Term, the Company shall have the right to terminate Executive’s employment (provided that the Company
shall first have made a reasonable accommodation pursuant to the Americans with Disabilities Act), which termination shall become effective upon a date not less than thirty calendar days following the date that written notice of such termination is
given to Executive. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Disability” or “Disabled” shall mean Executive’s inability to perform his material duties under this Agreement due to any illness or physical or mental disability
or other incapacity as evidenced by a written statement of a physician licensed to practice medicine in any state in the United States mutually agreed upon by the Company and Executive, which disability or other incapacity continues for a period in
excess of 180 days in any consecutive twelve-month period. 
  
 (c) Voluntary Resignation by Executive. Executive shall have the right to terminate his employment without Good Reason (as hereinafter defined) at any time prior to December 31, 2006, by giving not less than
ninety days prior written notice of his resignation to the Company. 
  
 (d) Termination for Cause. Executive shall not be deemed to have been terminated for Cause unless and until there shall have been delivered to Executive a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative
vote or not less than a majority of the Board of Directors finding that in the good faith opinion of such members of the Board, Executive was guilty of conduct set forth in any of clauses (A) through (D) of this paragraph 5(d), and specifying the
particulars thereof in detail. For purposes of this Agreement, Cause shall mean: (A) Executive’s willful and continued failure to perform substantially his duties with the Company other than any such failure resulting from Executive’s
Disability or any such failure resulting from Executive’s termination for Good Reason or retirement pursuant to paragraph 5(f), after (I) a written demand for substantial performance is delivered to Executive by the Board of Directors which
specifically identifies the manner in which the Board believes that Executive has not performed his duties, and (II) the failure of Executive to reasonably comply with such demand within thirty days of notice to Executive, (B) Executive’s
willful engagement in conduct materially and demonstrably injurious to the Company that is not cured by Executive within thirty days of notice to Executive, (C) Executive’s willful violation of paragraph 6 or 7 hereof that is not cured by
Executive within thirty days of notice to Executive, or (D) Executive’s conviction of any felony from which all appeals have been exhausted. For purposes of this subparagraph, no act or failure to act on Executive’s part shall be
considered “willful” unless done, or omitted to be done, by Executive not in good faith and without reasonable belief that his action or omission was in the best interest of the Company or any Affiliate.

 (e) Termination Without Cause or for Good Reason. 
  
 (i) Any termination by the Company other than due to death,
Disability or Cause shall be treated as a termination by the Company without Cause (hereinafter, a termination “Without Cause”). The Company shall notify Executive of a termination Without Cause pursuant to a written notice to Executive,
which shall specify the effective date of termination; provided, that, unless otherwise agreed by the parties, such effective date shall not be more than thirty days after the date of such notice. In the event of Executive’s termination Without
Cause, the Company shall pay to Executive a severance payment equal to 2.99 times the sum of (I) Executive’s annual Base Salary in effect at the time of termination and (II) the highest annual bonus, if any, paid in cash, in-kind or otherwise
by the Company (whether or not pursuant to the Annual Incentive Plan) to Executive during the three-year period immediately preceding the date of termination, (the “Severance Payment”). The Severance Payment shall be payable in cash in a
lump sum within fifteen days of the termination of Executive’s employment. 
  
 (ii) This Agreement may be terminated by Executive for Good Reason upon written notice to the Company, which shall be effective as of the
date such notice is delivered to the Company. In the event Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason, Executive shall receive the same Severance Payment as provided in paragraph 5(e)(i) in connection with a termination Without Cause. For
the purpose of this paragraph 5(e), “Good Reason” means any of the following events unless it occurs with Executive’s express written consent, if the Company shall have failed to correct or remedy such event (if subject to correction
or remedy) within thirty days following receipt of written notice from Executive describing such event and demanding correction or remedy: (A) the assignment to Executive of any significant duties inconsistent with, or a material diminution of,
Executive’s position, duties, titles, offices, responsibilities or status with the Company, or any removal of Executive or any failure to appoint Executive to any of such positions, including as Chief Executive Officer, or failure to nominate
Executive to serve as a director and as Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors (provided, that if Executive is then serving as Chairman of the Board, then failure to nominate Executive to continue to serve as Chairman); (B) a reduction in
Executive’s Base Salary required to be paid hereunder, or failure by the Company to pay or provide for any vested and earned Annual Bonus, or any vested and earned award under the LTI Plan; (C) any failure by the Company to provide Executive
with benefits described in paragraph 3(e); (D) a substantial increase in the level of Executive’s business travel obligations, as required by the Board, compared to Executive’s previous travel obligations during the period of his
employment with the Company; (E) a relocation of the Company’s principal executive offices more than 35 miles from the location of such offices as provided in paragraph 19 herein, or requirement by the Company that Executive perform his
employment duties hereunder at any location other than the Company’s principal executive offices, (F) any failure by the Company to obtain the assumption of this Agreement by any successor to or assignee of the Company, or (G) a material breach
of this Agreement by the Company. 
  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive shall also be entitled to voluntarily terminate his employment with the Company for any reason by giving not less than thirty days’ advance written notice to the Company of his intention to
terminate his employment at any time within the one-year period following any termination of, or material amendment to, the LTI Plan by the Company in connection with a Change of Control or otherwise that adversely affects the ability of Executive
to realize the full potential value of the 275,000 Performance Units awarded to Executive as described in paragraph 3(c), and any such termination shall be considered a termination for Good Reason for purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Company may, at its option, elect to pay to Executive the difference between (i) the amount (if any) actually realized by Executive on such Performance Units that vested coincident with or prior to such termination or amendment of the
LTI Plan and (ii) the maximum potential value of such Performance Units; and, in such case, the termination or amendment of the Plan will not give Executive the right to terminate his employment for Good Reason as aforesaid. Any such election by the
Company must be made within 20 days of the termination or amendment to the LTI Plan. 
  
 (f) Retirement by Executive. For purposes of this Agreement, Executive may elect to terminate his employment due to retirement at
any time after December 31, 2006, by giving not less than ninety days 

  

 6 

 
prior written notice of his intention to retire from the Company, and receive the following benefits and payments. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant
to this paragraph 5(f), the Company shall pay to Executive a retirement payment in a lump sum in cash within fifteen days of such retirement date, as follows: In the event such retirement occurs during 2007, Executive shall receive a retirement
payment equal to 1.5 times the sum of (A) Executive’s annual Base Salary in effect at the time of retirement, and (B) the highest Annual Bonus, if any, paid in cash, in-kind or otherwise by the Company to Executive during the three-year period
immediately preceding the date of retirement. In the event such retirement occurs during 2008, Executive shall receive a retirement payment equal to two times the sum of (A) Executive’s annual Base Salary in effect at the time of retirement,
and (B) the highest Annual Bonus, if any, paid in cash, in-kind or otherwise by the Company to Executive during the three-year period immediately preceding the date of retirement. In the event such retirement occurs during 2009 or later, Executive
shall receive a retirement payment equal to 2.5 times the sum of (A) Executive’s annual Base Salary in effect at the time of retirement, and (B) the highest Annual Bonus, if any, paid in cash, in-kind or otherwise by the Company to Executive
during the three-year period immediately preceding the date of retirement. In addition, for the period of time equal to the retirement payment multiplier (for purposes of clarity, 1.5 times equals 18 months, 2 times equals 24 months, and 2.5 times
equals 30 months) following Executive’s retirement, the Company shall continue to provide Executive, at the Company’s expense, with continued benefits comparable to those provided to Executive in accordance with paragraph 3(e) immediately
prior to his retirement (excluding benefits relating to the Company’s corporate aircraft), subject in all cases to Executive’s eligibility to continue to participate under the terms of the relevant benefit plan or plans of the Company
following his termination of employment with the Company, and with respect to the continuation of the additional benefits provided in paragraph 3(e)(ii), such continued coverage shall be subject to the annual limit on premium cost provided in such
paragraph. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, it is acknowledged and agreed by the parties hereto that (i) the Restricted Stock awarded to Executive pursuant to that certain Senior Restricted Stock Agreement dated June
5, 2001 between the Company and Executive (the “Senior Restricted Stock Agreement”) shall vest and shall otherwise be governed by the terms of the Senior Restricted Stock Agreement, and (ii) Executive’s right to benefits under this
Agreement are in addition to, and not in limitation upon, his rights under the Senior Restricted Stock Agreement and under the agreement relating to stock options dated January 1, 2003. 
  
 6. Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation. 
  
 (a) During the Term and for a period of twelve months
immediately following the termination of this Agreement for any reason, Executive will not, directly or indirectly, for himself or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, persons, company, partnership, corporation or business of
whatever nature establish, enter into, be employed by or for, advise, consult with or become a part of, any company, partnership, corporation or other business entity or venture, or in any way engage in business for himself or for others, in
competition with the Company. 
  
 (b) During the
Term and for a period of twenty-four months immediately following the termination of this Agreement for any reason, Executive will not, directly or indirectly, for himself or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, persons, company,
partnership, corporation or business of whatever nature, solicit or induce, or attempt to solicit or induce, (i) any person that has any material business relationship with the Company (including, without limitation, any consultants or suppliers) to
terminate or modify such relationship or otherwise take any action detrimental in any material respect to such relationship, (ii) any of the Company’s customers to become customers of any business that is competitive with any aspect of the
Company’s business; or (iii) any person to leave the employ of the Company. 
  
 (c) Because of the difficulty of measuring economic losses to the Company as a result of breach by Executive of the foregoing covenants,
and because of the immediate and irreparable damage that might be caused to the Company for which it would have no other adequate remedy, Executive agrees that, without limiting the remedies available to the Company, the foregoing covenants may be
enforced by the Company by injunctions and restraining orders. 
  

 7 

 (d) The parties agree that the covenants in this paragraph 6 impose a reasonable
restraint on Executive in light of the activities and business of the Company on the date of this Agreement, and the Company and Executive intend that such covenants shall subsequently be construed and enforced in light of the activities and
business of the Company on the date of the termination of the employment of Executive. The covenants in this paragraph 6 are intended to be severable and separate, and the unenforceability of any specific covenant shall not affect the enforceability
of any other covenant. 
  
 7.
Confidentiality. 
  
 (a) During the Term
and at all times following the termination of this Agreement, Executive will not, except in furtherance of the business of the Company, directly or indirectly (i) disclose to any person or entity, without the Company’s prior consent, any
confidential information, whether prepared by him or others, (ii) use any such information other than as directed by the Company in writing, or (iii) remove confidential information from the premises of the Company without the prior written consent
of the Company. 
  
 (b) Confidential information

prospects, (ii) business, pricing and management methods, (iii) finances, strategies, systems, research, surveys, plans, reports, recommendations and conclusions, (iv) names, arrangements with, or other information relating to, the Company’s

information, work products and know-how, and (vi) cost, operating, and other management information systems, and other software and programming. 
  
 (c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, (i) confidential information shall not include information that has been
previously disclosed to the public by the Company or that is in the public domain, other than by reason of Executive’s breach of this paragraph 7, and (ii) disclosure by Executive of confidential information that is required in connection with
any judicial or administrative proceeding or inquiry shall not be treated as a breach of this paragraph 7, provided Executive has to the extent practicable given the Company at least 10 days’ notice of request therefor (unless otherwise
precluded by law) and has cooperated with the Company in its attempts to obtain confidential treatment of any request for confidential information. 
  
 8. Company Property. All products, records, designs, patents, plans, manuals, memoranda, lists and other property delivered to
Executive by or on behalf of the Company or by its customers, and all records compiled by Executive that pertain to the business of the Company (whether or not confidential) shall be and remain the property of the Company and be subject at all times
to its discretion and control. Likewise, all correspondence with customers or representatives, reports, records, charts, advertising materials, and any data collected by Executive, or by or on behalf of the Company or its representatives (whether or
not confidential) shall be delivered promptly to the Company upon request by it upon termination of Executive’s employment. 
  
 9. Intellectual Property. Executive shall disclose promptly to the Company any and all conceptions and ideas for inventions,
improvements and valuable discoveries, whether patentable or not, which are conceived or made by Executive solely or jointly with another during the Term, and which are related to the business or activities of the Company or which Executive
conceives as a result of his employment by the Company, and Executive hereby assigns and agrees to assign all his interests therein to the Company or its nominee. Whenever requested to do so by the Company, Executive shall execute any and all
applications, assignments or other instruments that the Company shall deem necessary to evidence such assignment to the Company or to apply for and obtain Letters Patent of the United States or any foreign country or to otherwise protect the
Company’s interest in such intellectual property. The obligations set forth in this 

  

 8 

 
paragraph 9 shall continue beyond the termination of this Agreement with respect to inventions, improvements, and valuable discoveries, whether patentable or
not, conceived or made by Executive during the Term and shall be binding upon Executive and his assigns, executors, administrators and other legal representatives. 
  
 10. Cooperation in Proceedings. After the termination of Executive’s employment with the
Company, Executive shall continue to make himself reasonably available at reasonable times, so as not to unreasonably interfere with his ongoing business activities, to the Company to advise the Company, at its request, about disputes with third
parties as to which Executive has knowledge, and, Executive agrees to cooperate fully with the Company in connection with litigation, arbitrations and similar proceedings and to provide testimony with respect to Executive’s knowledge in any
such litigation, arbitrations and similar proceedings involving the Company, in all cases without additional compensation or consideration from the Company. In the event Executive is requested to cooperate with the Company as provided in this
paragraph 10, the Company shall reimburse Executive for his reasonable out-of-pocket, travel, lodging expenses and, under circumstances where there is a conflict and Executive cannot be adequately represented by counsel for the Company, legal
expenses. Under circumstances where Executive can be adequately represented by counsel for the Company without conflict of interest, the Company shall have an affirmative obligation to cause such counsel to fairly represent Executive’s
interests in such litigation, arbitrations or similar proceedings at the Company’s cost, and the determination whether Executive can be adequately represented by counsel without conflict of interest shall be made in good faith by the
Company’s counsel according to the cannons of ethics of the New York State Bar Association. 
  
 11. Indemnification. 
  
 (a) The Company agrees to continue and maintain a directors and officers liability insurance policy covering Executive both during
Executive’s employment and after Executive’s termination of his employment with respect to acts or omissions that occurred prior to Executive’s termination of employment, on such terms as are no less favorable to Executive than the
terms generally applicable to the Company’s executive officers generally. 
  
 (b) The Company and Executive are parties to an Indemnification Agreement dated as of the date hereof (the “Indemnification
Agreement”), and the parties hereto agree that the Indemnification Agreement shall govern Executive’s rights with respect to indemnification by reason of the fact that Executive is or was an officer, director or employee of the Company or
is or was serving as an officer, director, member, employee, trustee or agent of any other entity at the request of the Company.

withholding taxes, social security deductions and any other required payroll deductions. 
  
 13. Certain Additional Payments. 
  
 (a) If all or any portion of the payments and benefits which Executive is entitled to receive pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or
any other plan, arrangement or agreement in respect of the Company or its Affiliates (the “Payments”) constitutes “excess parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
(the “Code”), that are subject to the excise tax (the “Excise Tax”) imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (or similar tax and/or assessment under state, local or other laws), the Company (or its successors or assigns) shall
promptly pay to Executive an additional amount (the “Gross-Up Payment”) such that the net amount retained by Executive, after deduction of (i) any Excise Tax on the Payments, (ii) any federal, state and local income tax and Excise Tax upon
the Gross-Up Payment, and (iii) any interest and penalties assessed in respect of the Excise Tax shall be equal to the full amount of the Payments. For purposes of determining the amount of the Gross-Up Payment, Executive shall be deemed to pay
federal income taxes at the highest marginal rate of federal income taxation in the calendar year in which the Gross-Up Payment is to be made, and state and local income taxes at the highest marginal rates of taxation in the state and locality of
Executive’s residence on the date the Gross-Up Payment is to be 

  

 9 

 
made, net of the maximum reduction in federal income taxes which can be obtained from deduction of such state and local taxes. 
  
 (b) All determinations with respect to the Gross-Up Payment
for any Payments shall be made in writing by a nationally recognized firm of certified public accountants selected by the Company (the “Accountants”) The Company and Executive shall furnish to the Accountants such information and documents
as the Accountants may reasonably request in order to make a determination under this paragraph 13. The Company shall bear all fees and costs the Accountants may reasonably charge or incur in connection with any calculations contemplated by this
paragraph 13. 
  
 (c) If the Excise Tax is
ultimately determined by the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) to be less than the amount taken into account in determining the Gross-Up Payment paid pursuant to paragraph 13(a), Executive shall repay to the Company, within ten (10)
days after the time that the amount of such reduction in Excise Tax is determined by the IRS, the portion of the Gross-Up Payment attributable to such reduction plus interest on the amount of such repayment at the rate provided in section
1274(b)(2)(B) of the Code for debt instruments with a maturity after issuance equal to the period beginning on the date the Gross-Up Payment was made and ending on the date of repayment required by this sentence. If the Excise Tax is determined to
exceed the amount taken into account in determining the Gross-Up Payment paid pursuant to paragraph 13(a), the Company within ten (10) days after the time that the amount of such excess Excise Tax is determined by the IRS shall make an additional
payment to Executive of an amount equal to (i) such excess Excise Tax, (ii) any federal, state and local income tax (determined pursuant to the last sentence of paragraph 13(a)) upon payments made pursuant to this sentence for such excess Excise
Tax, and (iii) any interest and penalties payable to the IRS with respect to such excess Excise Tax. 
  
 14. No Right of Set-off, Etc. Except as set forth in this Agreement, the obligation of the Company to make the payments provided
for in this Agreement and otherwise to perform its obligations hereunder shall not be affected by any circumstances, including without limitation, set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other claim, right or action which the Company may have
against Executive or others. 
  
 15. No
Obligation to Mitigate. In no event shall Executive be obliged to seek other employment or consulting or take any other action by way of mitigation of the amounts payable to Executive under any of the provisions of this Agreement, nor shall the
amount of any payment hereunder be reduced by any compensation earned by Executive as a result of self-employment or employment by another employer. 
  
 16. Complete Agreement; Existing Agreement. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein or under the terms of any other
pre-existing equity compensation agreement, there are no oral representations, understandings or agreements with the Company or any of its officers, directors or representatives covering the same subject matter as this Agreement (including the
Existing Agreement). This written Agreement is the final, complete and exclusive statement and expression of the agreement between the Company and Executive and of all the terms of this Agreement, and it cannot be varied, contradicted or

that no provisions thereof survives notwithstanding it being stated in the Existing Agreement that a particular provision will survive termination). 
  
 17. No Waiver. No waiver by the parties hereto of any default or breach of any term, condition or covenant of this Agreement shall
be deemed to be a waiver of any other term, condition or covenant contained herein or on any subsequent default or breach of the same term, condition or covenant.

 Exhibit A 
  

2001 SENIOR STOCK PLAN 
  
 RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT 
  
 Awardee: Wayland R. Hicks (“Awardee”) 
 Grant Date: April 8, 2004

 Restricted Stock Units: 200,000 
  
 This RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is made as of the Grant Date by and between UNITED RENTALS, INC., a Delaware corporation
having an office at Five Greenwich Office Park, Greenwich, CT 06830 (the “Company”), and Awardee. Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Company’s 2001 Senior Stock Plan (the
“Plan”). 
  
 In consideration of the mutual promises and
covenants contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
  
 1. Grant of Restricted Stock Units. The Company hereby grants 200,000
Restricted Stock Units (the “Units”) to Awardee pursuant to the Plan, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan. 
  
 2. Vesting; Forfeiture. The Units shall vest and become nonforfeitable as follows: (A) 33,333 Units shall vest on
January 1, 2005, 33,333 Units shall vest on July 1, 2005, and 33,334 Units shall vest on January 1, 2006 (provided in each case that Awardee’s employment with the Company continues through such date), and (B) 100,000 Units shall vest on
December 31, 2008 (provided Awardee’s employment with the Company continues through the scheduled end of the term of Awardee’s employment, without giving effect to any renewal periods, as provided in the Employment Agreement between
Awardee and the Company dated April 8, 2004 (the “Employment Agreement”)). Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) in the event of a Change of Control (as defined in the Employment Agreement), any unvested Units shall become immediately vested
and nonforfeitable upon the occurrence of such event, (B) in the event of the termination of Awardee’s employment due to death or Disability (as defined in the Employment Agreement) on or prior to January 1, 2006, any unvested Units that were
scheduled to vest on or prior to January 1, 2006, shall become immediately vested and nonforfeitable and the remaining unvested Units shall be cancelled and forfeited and (C) in the event of the termination of Awardee’s employment by the
Company without Cause (as defined in the Employment Agreement) or Awardee’s termination for Good Reason (as defined in the Employment Agreement), then an “appropriate fraction” (as hereinafter defined) of each separate tranche of any
unvested Units shall become immediately vested and nonforfeitable and the remaining unvested Units shall be cancelled and forfeited. For purposes of the foregoing, the “appropriate fraction” with respect to any tranche of Units means: (i)
the amount of time that has elapsed from the grant date of such Units to the occurrence of the event triggering accelerated vesting divided by (ii) the total amount of time from the grant date to the scheduled vesting date for such
Units absent accelerated vesting. For purposes of the foregoing, the Units scheduled to vest on different dates will be considered separate tranches and the calculation of the appropriate fraction will be made separately for each tranche as if such
tranche were the only tranche (i.e., the Units scheduled to vest on January 1, 2005 are one tranche, those scheduled to vest on July 1, 2005 a second tranche, those scheduled to vest on January 1, 2006 a third tranche and those scheduled to vest on
December 31, 2008 a fourth tranche). In the event of the termination of Awardee’s employment by the Company for Cause, or Awardee’s voluntary resignation (including retirement pursuant to paragraph 5(f) of the Employment Agreement prior to
the expiration of the Term without giving effect to any renewal periods) without Good Reason (as defined in the Employment Agreement), any unvested Units shall be cancelled and forfeited. 
  
  

 13 

 3. Payment upon Vesting. Vested Units shall be settled
in Stock on a one-for-one basis. Within five (5) business days following the each date on which one or more Units vest, the Company shall deliver to Awardee (or Awardee’s beneficiary or estate, if no beneficiary is designated or in the event
any chosen beneficiary predeceases Awardee, in the event of the death of Awardee) a certificate, free and clear of any restrictive legend, representing a number of shares of Stock equal to the number of Units that vested on such date. 
  
 4. Deferral of Delivery of Shares of
Stock. Awardee may elect to defer the receipt of shares of Stock upon the vesting of any Unit by filing a deferral election form with the Company at least one year prior to the vesting date of such Unit; provided, however, that
Awardee may file a deferral election form relating to any one or more Units within thirty (30) days following the Grant Date. The Company shall establish such other rules and regulations providing for the deferral of the delivery of shares of Stock
as may be necessary to ensure that such deferred delivery will not result in taxation to Awardee until shares are actually delivered. 
  
 5. Dividends and Dividend Equivalents. No dividends or dividend equivalents shall accrue or be paid with respect to
any Units. 
  
 6.
Transferability. Units are not transferable by the Awardee, whether by sale, assignment, exchange, pledge, or hypothecation, or by operation of law or otherwise. 
  
 7. Transferability of Shares of Stock. The Company shall, to the extent
it has not already done so, file a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (or otherwise) with the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to the shares of Stock to be delivered hereunder and comply with all applicable state securities laws prior to
the distribution of shares of Stock hereunder and to do everything else necessary to ensure that shares of Stock delivered to Awardee upon or following the vesting of any Unit will not be treated as “restricted securities” within the
meaning of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act. 
  
 8. Conformity with Plan. Except as specifically set forth herein, this Agreement is intended to conform in all respects with, and is subject to all applicable provisions of, the
Plan, which is incorporated herein by reference. Any inconsistencies between this Agreement and the Plan with respect to any mandatory provisions of the Plan shall be resolved in accordance with the terms of the Plan. By executing and returning the
enclosed copy of this Agreement, Awardee acknowledges its receipt of the Plan and its agreement to be bound by all the terms of the Plan. All definitions stated in the Plan apply to this letter. 
  
 9. Withholding Taxes.
Awardee shall pay to the Company, or make provision satisfactory to the Administrator for payment of, any taxes required to be withheld in respect of the vesting or distribution of shares of Stock hereunder no later than the date of the event
creating the tax liability. The Company may, to the extent permitted by law, deduct any such tax obligations from any payment of any kind otherwise due to the Awardee, including any shares of Stock to be delivered hereunder. In the event that
payment to the Company of such tax obligations is made in shares of Stock, such shares shall be valued at their fair market value on the applicable date for such purposes. 
  
 10. Awardee Advised To Obtain Personal Counsel and Tax Representation. IMPORTANT: The
Company and its employees do not provide any guidance or advice to individuals who may be granted an Award under the Plan regarding the federal, state or local income tax consequences or employment tax consequences of participating in the Plan. Each
person who may be entitled to any benefit under the Plan is responsible for determining their own personal tax consequences of participating in the Plan. Accordingly, you may wish to retain the services of a professional tax advisor in connection
with any Awards under the Plan. 
  
 11.
Gross-up. Under the Employment Agreement, Awardee is entitled to certain gross-up amounts in respect of payments and benefits which constitute “excess parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The Company confirms that such gross-up payments also apply to payments and benefits in respect of the Units. 
  

 14 

 12. Beneficiary Designation. Awardee may designate one
or more beneficiaries, from time to time, to whom any benefit under this Agreement is to be paid in case of Awardee’s death. Each designation must be in writing, signed by Awardee and delivered to the Company. Each new designation will revoke
all prior designations. 
  
 13.
Adjustments for Changes in Capital Structure. In the event of any change in capital structure or business of the Company by reason of any Stock dividend or extraordinary dividend, Stock split or reverse Stock split,
recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, combination or exchange of shares of Stock, non-cash distributions with respect to its outstanding Stock, reclassification of the Company’s capital stock, any sale or transfer
of all or part of the Company’s assets or business, or any similar change affecting the Company’s capital structure or business or the capital structure of any business of any Subsidiary, the Administrator shall make such appropriate
adjustments to the Units as are equitable and reasonably necessary or desirable to preserve the intended benefits under this Agreement. 
  
 14. Miscellaneous. 
  
 (a) This Agreement may not be changed or terminated except by written agreement signed by the Company and
Awardee. It shall be binding on the parties and on their personal representatives and permitted assigns.

and expenses incurred by Awardee in connection with any action arising under this Agreement, provided that any dispute or controversy between the parties regarding this Agreement is resolved in any manner in favor of Awardee. Upon any initial
determination in favor of Awardee, the Company shall advance to Awardee an amount equal to Awardee’s previously incurred legal fees and a reasonable estimate of any legal fees, costs and expenses that may be incurred by Awardee in connection
with the final resolution of such matter. In addition, the Company shall pay or reimburse Awardee for attorneys’ fees incurred by Awardee in connection with the negotiation and preparation of this Agreement. This paragraph shall not affect
Awardee’s common-law or statutory indemnification rights, or any agreements or other arrangements between the parties relating to indemnification.
