 Exhibit 4.1 

AMENDMENT TO RIGHTS AGREEMENT 

This Amendment to Rights Agreement (the “Amendment”) is dated as of September 22, 2010, between Itron, Inc.,
a Washington corporation (the “Company”), and Mellon Investor Services LLC (operating with the service name BNY Mellon Shareowner Services) (the “Rights Agent”), and amends the Rights Agreement, dated
as of December 11, 2002, between the Company and the Rights Agent (as amended, the “Rights Agreement”). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Rights
Agreement. All section and exhibit references are to sections and exhibits of the Rights Agreement. 
 WHEREAS, pursuant to
Section 26, the Company and the Rights Agent may from time to time supplement or amend any provision of the Rights Agreement in accordance with the terms of such Section 26. 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and mutual agreements set forth in this Amendment, the parties hereby amend
the Rights Agreement as follows: 
 1. Section 1 of the Rights Agreement is hereby amended as follows: 

The definition of Acquiring Person is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows: 

“Acquiring Person” shall mean any Person (as hereinafter defined) who or which, together with all
Affiliates and Associates (as such terms are hereinafter defined) of such Person, and together with any other Person with whom such Person is Acting in Concert (as hereinafter defined) (or any Affiliate or Associate thereof), shall be the Beneficial
Owner (as hereinafter defined) of 15% or more of the Common Shares (as hereinafter defined) then outstanding but shall not include (i) an Exempt Person (as hereinafter defined) or (ii) any Designated Holder, unless and until such time as
such Designated Holder shall become the Beneficial Owner of 17% or more of the Common Shares of the Company then outstanding; provided that no Designated Holder shall become an “Acquiring Person” due to any acquisition of Beneficial
Ownership (as such term is hereinafter defined) or other effect by reason of or due to any action taken by the Company (including, without limitation, repurchases of securities or dividends on equity securities). “Designated Holder” shall
mean BlackRock Inc., together with all of its Affiliates and Associates (“BlackRock”), until the earliest of (a) such time as BlackRock ceases to Beneficially Own (as such term is hereinafter defined) 10% or more of the Common Shares
of the Company, (b) such time as BlackRock Inc. or any Parent (as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the General Rules and Regulations under the Exchange Act) is subject to a change of control as determined by the Board in its sole discretion, or
(c) such time as BlackRock reports or is required to report on Schedule 13D (or any successor or comparable report) its Beneficial Ownership of Common Shares of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Person shall become an
“Acquiring Person” as the result of an acquisition of Common Shares by the Company which, by reducing the number of shares outstanding, increases the proportionate number of shares Beneficially Owned by such Person to 15% (or, in the case
of a Designated Holder, 17%) or more of the Common Shares of the Company then outstanding; provided, however, that if (a) any Person other than a Designated Holder shall become the Beneficial Owner of 15% or more of the Common
Shares of the Company then outstanding solely by reason of share purchases by the Company and shall, after such share purchases by the Company, become the Beneficial Owner of one or more additional Common Shares of the Company, then such Person
shall be deemed to be an “Acquiring Person” unless upon becoming the Beneficial Owner of such additional shares of Common Stock such Person does not Beneficially Own 15% or more of the shares of Common Stock then outstanding; and
(b) any Designated Holder shall become the Beneficial Owner of 17% or more of the Common Shares of the Company then outstanding solely by reason of share purchases by the Company and shall, after such share purchases by the Company, become the
Beneficial Owner of one or more additional Common Shares of the Company, then such Designated Holder shall be deemed to be an “Acquiring Person” unless upon becoming the Beneficial Owner of such additional shares of Common Stock such
Designated Holder does not Beneficially Own 17% or more of the shares of Common Stock then outstanding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith that a Person who would otherwise be an
“Acquiring Person,” as defined pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, has become such inadvertently (including, without limitation, 

 
because (A) such Person was unaware that it Beneficially Owned a percentage of Common Stock that would otherwise cause such Person to be an “Acquiring Person” or (B) such
Person was aware of the extent of its Beneficial Ownership of Common Stock but had no actual knowledge of the consequences of such Beneficial Ownership under this Agreement), and without any intention of changing or influencing control of the
Company, and such Person divests as promptly as practicable a sufficient number of Common Shares so that such Person would no longer be an Acquiring Person, as defined pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this definition, then such Person shall
not be deemed to be or have become an “Acquiring Person” at any time for any purposes of this Agreement. For all purposes of this Agreement, any calculation of the number of Common Shares outstanding at any particular time (from the
adoption of this Agreement and thereafter), including for purposes of determining the particular percentage of such outstanding Common Shares of which any Person is the Beneficial Owner, shall be made in accordance with the last sentence of Rule
13d-3(d)(1)(i) of the General Rules and Regulations under the Exchange Act, as in effect on the date of this Agreement, without regard to the 60-day limitation in Rule 13d-3(d)(1)(i).” 

2. A new definition is hereby added to the Rights Agreement immediately following the definition of “Acquiring
Person”, to read in its entirety as follows: 
 “A Person shall be deemed to be “Acting in
Concert” with another Person if such Person knowingly acts (whether or not pursuant to an express agreement, arrangement or understanding) in concert or in parallel with such other Person, or towards a common goal with such other
Person, relating to changing or influencing the control of the Company or in connection with or as a participant in any transaction having that purpose or effect, where (i) each Person is conscious of the other Person’s conduct and this
awareness is an element in their decision-making processes and (ii) at least one additional factor supports a determination by the Board that such Persons intended to act in concert or in parallel, which such additional factors may include,
without limitation, exchanging information, attending meetings, conducting discussions, or making or soliciting invitations to act in concert or in parallel. A Person who is Acting in Concert with another Person shall also be deemed to be Acting in
Concert with any third party who is also acting in concert with such other Person. 
 No Person shall be deemed
to be Acting in Concert with another Person solely as a result of (i) making or receiving a solicitation of, or granting or receiving, revocable proxies or consents given in response to a public proxy or consent solicitation made pursuant to,
and in accordance with, Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act (as such term is hereinafter defined) by means of a solicitation statement filed on Schedule 14A, or (ii) soliciting or being solicited for, or tendering or receiving, tenders of
securities in a public tender or exchange offer made pursuant to, and in accordance with, Section 14(d) of the Exchange Act by means of a tender offer statement filed on Schedule TO.” 

3. The definitions of “Beneficial Owner,” “Beneficially Own” and
“Beneficial Ownership” are hereby amended and restated in their entirety as follows: 
 “A
Person shall be deemed the “Beneficial Owner” of and shall be deemed to “Beneficially Own” or have “Beneficial Ownership” of any securities: 

(i) which such Person or any of such Person’s Affiliates or Associates, or any other Person with whom such Person is
Acting in Concert (or any Affiliate or Associate thereof), directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship, or otherwise has or shares: (A) voting power which includes the power to vote, or to direct the
voting of, such security (except that a Person shall not be deemed to be the Beneficial Owner of any security under this clause (A) if such voting power arises solely from a revocable proxy or consent given to such Person in
response to a public proxy or consent solicitation made pursuant to, and in accordance with, Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act by means of a solicitation statement filed on Schedule 14A), and/or (B) investment power which includes the
power to dispose, or to direct the disposition of such security; 
 (ii) which such Person or any of such
Person’s Affiliates or Associates, or any other Person with whom such Person is Acting in Concert (or any Affiliate or Associate thereof), directly or indirectly, has the Right to Acquire; provided, however, that a Person shall
not be deemed the Beneficial Owner of, or to 
  

 2 

 
Beneficially Own, (w) securities tendered pursuant to a tender or exchange offer made by or on behalf of such Person or any of such Person’s Affiliates or Associates until such tendered
securities are accepted for purchase or exchange, (x) securities which such Person has a Right to Acquire upon the exercise of Rights at any time prior to the time that any Person becomes an Acquiring Person, or (y) securities issuable
upon the exercise of Rights from and after the time that any Person becomes an Acquiring Person if such Rights were acquired by such Person or any of such Person’s Affiliates or Associates prior to the Distribution Date or pursuant to
Section 3.1 or Section 22 (“Original Rights”) or pursuant to Section 11.9 or Section 11.15 with respect to an adjustment to Original Rights; 

(iii) which are Beneficially Owned, directly or indirectly, by any other Person (or any Affiliate or Associate thereof),
or any other Person with whom such Person is Acting in Concert (or any Affiliate or Associate thereof), with whom such Person or any of such Person’s Affiliates or Associates, or any other Person with whom such Person is Acting in Concert (or
any Affiliate or Associate thereof), has an agreement, arrangement or understanding to act together for the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting or disposing of any securities of the Company (except that a Person shall not be deemed to be the
Beneficial Owner of any security under this Section 1.3(iii) if such voting power arises solely from a revocable proxy or consent given to such Person in response to a public proxy or consent solicitation made pursuant to, and in
accordance with, Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act by means of a solicitation statement filed on Schedule 14A); or 

(iv) of which such Person would otherwise be deemed to be the beneficial owner pursuant to Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange
Act. 
 A Person who or which, together with all Affiliates and Associates of such Person, and together with any
other Person with whom such Person is Acting in Concert (or any Affiliate or Associate thereof), shall be the “Beneficial Owner” (within the meaning of Sections 1.3(i) through 1.3(iv) hereof) of 5% or more of the Common Stock then
outstanding, shall also be deemed to be the “Beneficial Owner” of, to have “Beneficial Ownership” of or to “Beneficially Own” the full notional amount of any securities that, directly or indirectly, underlie any
“derivative security” (as such term is defined in Rule 16a-1(c) under the Exchange Act) that constitutes a “call equivalent position” (as such term is defined in Rule 16a-1(b) under the Exchange Act) (“Synthetic Equity
Position”) and that is, directly or indirectly, held or maintained by such Person, any Affiliate or Associate of such Person, or any other Person with whom such Person is Acting in Concert (or any Affiliate or Associate thereof); provided that,
for the purposes of the definition of Synthetic Equity Position, the term “derivative security” shall also include any security or instrument that would not otherwise constitute a “derivative security” as a result of any feature
that would make any conversion, exercise or similar right or privilege of such security or instrument becoming determinable only at some future date or upon the happening of a future occurrence, in which case the determination of the amount of
securities into which such security or instrument would be convertible or exercisable shall be made assuming that such security or instrument is immediately convertible or exercisable at the time of such determination; and, provided, further, that
any Person satisfying the requirements of Rule 13d-1(b)(1) (other than a Person that so satisfies Rule 13d-1(b)(1) solely by reason of Rule 13d-1(b)(1)(ii)(E)) shall not be deemed to Beneficially Own the notional amount of any securities that
underlie a Synthetic Equity Position held by such Person as a hedge with respect to a bona fide derivatives trade or position of such Person arising in the ordinary course of such Person’s business as a derivatives dealer. 

No Person shall be deemed to be the “Beneficial Owner” of, to have “Beneficial Ownership” of or to
“Beneficially Own” any securities which such Person or any of such Person’s Affiliates or Associates would otherwise be deemed to “Beneficially Own” pursuant to this Section 1.4 solely as a result of any merger or other
acquisition agreement between the Company and such Person (or one or more of such Person’s Affiliates or Associates), or any tender, voting or support agreement entered into by such Person (or one or more of such Person’s Affiliates or
Associates) in connection therewith, if, prior to such Person becoming an Acquiring Person, the Board has approved such merger or other acquisition agreement, or such tender, voting or support agreement. 

 

 3 

 No Person who is an officer, director or employee of an Exempt Person shall
be deemed, solely by reason of such Person’s status or authority as such, to be the “Beneficial Owner” of, to have “Beneficial Ownership” of or to “Beneficially Own” any securities that are “Beneficially
Owned” (as defined in this Section 1.3), including, without limitation, in a fiduciary capacity, by an Exempt Person or by any other such officer, director or employee of an Exempt Person. 

“Right to Acquire” shall mean a legal, equitable or contractual right to acquire (whether directly or indirectly
and whether exercisable immediately, or only after the passage of time, compliance with regulatory requirements, fulfillment of a condition or otherwise), pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or understanding, whether or not in writing (excluding
customary agreements entered into in good faith with and between an underwriter and selling group members in connection with a firm commitment underwriting registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)), or
upon the exercise of any option, warrant or right, through conversion of a security, pursuant to the power to revoke a trust, discretionary account or similar arrangement, pursuant to the power to terminate a repurchase or similar so-called
“stock borrowing” agreement or arrangement, or pursuant to the automatic termination of a trust, discretionary account or similar arrangement. 

4. A new definition is hereby added to the Rights Agreement immediately following the definition of “Exchange
Consideration”, to read in its entirety as follows: 
 “Exempt Person” shall
mean the Company, any Subsidiary of the Company, in each case including, without limitation, its fiduciary capacity, or any employee benefit plan of the Company or of any Subsidiary of the Company or any entity or trustee holding shares of capital
stock of the Company for or pursuant to the terms of any such plan, or for the purpose of funding other employee benefits for employees of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company. 

5. The definition of “Business Day” in Section 1 of the Rights Agreement is hereby amended by adding,
after the phrase “institutions in New Jersey”, the phrase “, New York”. 
 6. Section 25 of the Rights
Agreement is hereby amended by replacing the address to which copies of notices to the Rights Agent should be sent by the following:

480 Washington Blvd. 

Jersey City, New Jersey 07310

7. Section 26 of the Rights Agreement is hereby amended by adding, prior to the final sentence thereto, the following sentence:

 “Notwithstanding anything contained in this Rights Agreement to the contrary, the Rights Agent may, but shall not be
obligated to, enter into any supplement or amendment that affects the Rights Agent’s own rights, duties, obligations or immunities under this Rights Agreement.” 

8. Section 29 of the Rights Agreement is hereby amended by adding, after the phrase “affected, impaired or invalidated”,
the following: 
 “; provided, however, that if such excluded provision shall effect the rights, immunities, duties or
obligations of the Rights Agent, the Rights Agent shall be entitled to resign immediately”. 
 9. A new Section 33 is
hereby added to the Rights Agreement as follows: 
  

 4

or mechanical difficulties with information storage or retrieval systems, labor difficulties, war or civil unrest. 
 10. A new
Section 34 is hereby added to the Rights Agreement as follows:

 (b) The Bank of New York
Mellon Corporation (“BNYM”) has adopted an incentive compensation program designed (i) to facilitate clients gaining access to and being provided with explanations about the full range of products and services offered by BNYM and its

execution of obtaining of products or services by the Company covered by this Rights Agreement or which may be ancillary or supplemental to such products or services. Any such referral fees or bonuses are funded solely out of fees and commissions
paid by the Company under this Rights Agreement or with respect to such ancillary or supplemental products or services.”

certain events. 
 If the Rights evidenced by this Rights Certificate are at any time beneficially owned by an Acquiring Person or an Affiliate
or Associate of an Acquiring Person (as such terms are defined in the Rights Agreement), such Rights shall be null and void and nontransferable and the holder of any such Right (including any purported transferee or subsequent holder) shall not have
any right to exercise or transfer any such Right.

 This Rights Certificate is subject to all the terms, provisions and conditions of the Rights Agreement,
which terms, provisions and conditions are hereby incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof and to which Rights Agreement reference is hereby made for a full description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and
immunities hereunder of the Rights Agent, the Company and the holders of the Rights Certificates. Copies of the Rights Agreement are on file at the principal executive offices of the Company. 

This Rights Certificate, with or without other Rights Certificates, upon surrender at the office of the Rights Agent designated for such purpose, may be
exchanged for another Rights Certificate or Rights Certificates of like tenor and date evidencing rights entitling the holder to purchase a like aggregate number of Preferred Shares as the Rights evidenced by the Rights Certificate or Rights
Certificates surrendered shall have entitled such holder to purchase. If this Rights Certificate shall be exercised in part, the holder shall be entitled to receive upon surrender hereof another Rights Certificate or Rights Certificates for the
number of whole Rights not exercised. 
 Subject to the provisions of the Rights Agreement, the Rights evidenced by this Certificate
(i) may be redeemed by the Company at a redemption price (in cash or shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company deemed by the Company’s Board of Directors to be at least equivalent in value) of $0.01 per Right (subject to
adjustment, as provided in the Rights Agreement) or (ii) may be exchanged in whole or in part for shares of the Company's Common Stock, without par value, or for Preferred Shares. 

The Company may, but shall not be required to, issue fractions of Preferred Shares or distribute certificates that evidence fractions of Preferred Shares
upon the exercise of any Right or Rights evidenced hereby. In lieu of issuing fractional shares, the Company may elect to make a cash payment as provided in the Rights Agreement for fractions of a share other than one one-hundredth (1/100) of a
share or any integral multiple thereof or to issue certificates or utilize a depository arrangement as provided in the terms of the Rights Agreement and the Preferred Shares. 

No holder of this Rights Certificate shall be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed for any purpose the holder of the Preferred Shares or of
any other securities of the Company that may at any time be issuable on the exercise hereof, nor shall anything contained in the Rights Agreement or herein be construed to confer upon the holder hereof, as such, any of the rights of a shareholder of
the Company or any right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to shareholders at any meeting thereof, or to give or withhold consent to any corporate action, or to receive notice of meetings or other actions affecting,
shareholders (except as provided in the Rights Agreement), or to receive dividends or subscriptions rights, or otherwise, until the Right or Rights evidenced by this Rights Certificate shall have been exercised as provided in the Rights Agreement.

 This Rights Certificate shall not be valid or obligatory for any purpose until it shall have been countersigned by the Rights Agent.
