Committee. If the Participant is married and resides in a community property state, a designation of a person other than the Participant’s spouse as his or her beneficiary with respect to more than 50% of the Participant’s interest in the
Award shall not be effective without the prior written consent of the Participant’s spouse. If no beneficiary has been designated or survives the Participant, payment shall be made to the person entitled thereto pursuant to the
Participant’s will or the laws of descent and distribution. Subject to the foregoing, a beneficiary designation may be changed or revoked by a Participant at any time provided the change or revocation is filed with the Committee. 
 9.5 Share Certificates. 
 (a)
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificates evidencing shares of Share pursuant to the exercise of any Award, unless and until the Board has determined, with advice of
counsel, that the issuance and delivery of such certificates is in compliance with all Applicable Laws, regulations of governmental authorities and, if applicable, the requirements of any exchange on which the Shares are listed or traded. All Share
certificates delivered pursuant to the Plan are subject to any stop-transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee deems necessary or advisable to comply 

  

 12 

 
with federal, state, or foreign jurisdiction, securities or other laws, rules and regulations and the rules of any national securities exchange or automated
quotation system on which the Shares are listed, quoted, or traded. The Committee may place legends on any Share certificate to reference restrictions applicable to the Share. In addition to the terms and conditions provided herein, the Board may
require that a Participant make such reasonable covenants, agreements, and representations as the Board, in its discretion, deems advisable in order to comply with any such laws, regulations, or requirements. The Committee shall have the right to
require any Participant to comply with any timing or other restrictions with respect to the settlement or exercise of any Award, including a window-period limitation, as may be imposed in the discretion of the Committee. 
 (b) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, unless otherwise determined by the Committee or required by Applicable Laws, the Company shall not
deliver to any Participant certificates evidencing Shares issued in connection with any Award and instead such Shares shall be recorded on the books of the Company or, as applicable, its transfer agent or share plan administrator. 
 9.6 Paperless Administration. Subject to Applicable Laws, the Committee may make Awards, provide applicable disclosure and procedures for exercise
of Awards by an internet website or interactive voice response system for the paperless administration of Awards. 
 9.7 Foreign
Currency. A Participant may be required to provide evidence that any U.S. dollars used to pay the exercise price of any Award were acquired and taken out of the jurisdiction in which the Participant resides in accordance with Applicable Laws,
including foreign exchange control laws and regulations. 
 ARTICLE 10 
 CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE 
 10.1 Adjustments. In the event of any
dividend, share split, combination or exchange of Shares, amalgamation, arrangement or consolidation, spin-off, recapitalization or other distribution (other than normal cash dividends) of Company assets to its shareholders, or any other change
affecting the shares of Shares or the share price of a Share, the Committee shall make such proportionate adjustments, if any, as necessary to reflect such change with respect to (a) the aggregate number and type of shares that may be issued
under the Plan (including, but not limited to, adjustments of the limitations in Section 3.1); (b) the terms and conditions of any outstanding Awards (including, without limitation, any applicable performance targets or criteria with
respect thereto); and (c) the grant or exercise price per share for any outstanding Awards under the Plan. 
 10.2 Acceleration upon
a Change of Control. Except as may otherwise be provided in any Award Agreement or any other written agreement entered into by and between the Company and a Participant, if a Change of Control occurs and a Participant’s Options, Restricted
Share or Share Appreciation Rights settled in Shares are not converted, assumed, or replaced by a successor, such Awards shall become fully exercisable and all forfeiture restrictions on such Awards shall lapse; and provided such Change of 

  

 13 

 
Control is a change in the ownership or effective control of the Company or in the ownership of or a substantial portion of the assets of the Company within
the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, then all Restricted Share Units, Deferred Share and Performance Share shall become deliverable upon the Change of Control. Upon, or in anticipation of, a Change of Control, the Committee may in its sole
discretion provide for (i) any and all Awards outstanding hereunder to terminate at a specific time in the future and shall give each Participant the right to exercise such Awards during a period of time as the Committee shall determine,
(ii) either the purchase of any Award for an amount of cash equal to the amount that could have been attained upon the exercise of such Award or realization of the Participant’s rights had such Award been currently exercisable or payable
or fully vested (and, for the avoidance of doubt, if as of such date the Committee determines in good faith that no amount would have been attained upon the exercise of such Award or realization of the Participant’s rights, then such Award may
be terminated by the Company without payment), (iii) the replacement of such Award with other rights or property selected by the Committee in its sole discretion the assumption of or substitution of such Award by the successor or surviving
corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kind of Shares and prices, or (iv) provide for payment of Awards in cash based on the value of Shares on the date of the Change of Control plus
reasonable interest on the Award through the date such Award would otherwise be vested or have been paid in accordance with its original terms, if necessary to comply with Section 409A of the Code. 
 10.3 Outstanding Awards – Corporate Transactions. In the event of a Corporate Transaction, each Award will terminate upon the consummation of
the Corporate Transaction, unless the Award is assumed by the successor entity or Parent thereof in connection with the Corporate Transaction. Except as provided otherwise in an individual Award Agreement, in the event of a Corporate
Transaction and: 
 (a) the Award either is (x) assumed by the successor entity or Parent thereof or replaced with a comparable Award (as
determined by the Committee) with respect to shares of the capital stock of the successor entity or Parent thereof or (y) replaced with a cash incentive program of the successor entity which preserves the compensation element of such Award
existing at the time of the Corporate Transaction and provides for subsequent payout in accordance with the same vesting schedule applicable to such Award, then such Award (if assumed), the replacement Award (if replaced), or the cash incentive
program automatically shall become fully vested, exercisable and payable and be released from any restrictions on transfer (other than transfer restrictions applicable to Options) and repurchase or forfeiture rights, immediately upon termination of
the Participant’s employment or service with all Service Recipient within twelve (12) months of the Corporate Transaction without cause; and 
 (b) For each Award that is neither assumed nor replaced, such portion of the Award shall automatically become fully vested and exercisable and be released from any repurchase or forfeiture rights (other than
repurchase rights exercisable at Fair Market Value) for all of the Shares at the time represented by such portion of the Award, immediately prior to the specified effective date of such Corporate Transaction, provided that the Participant remains an
Employee, Consultant or Director on the effective date of the Corporate Transaction. 
  

 14 

 10.4 Outstanding Awards – Other Changes. In the event of any other change in the
capitalization of the Company or corporate change other than those specifically referred to in this Article 10, the Committee may, in its absolute discretion, make such adjustments in the number and class of shares subject to Awards outstanding on
the date on which such change occurs and in the per share grant or exercise price of each Award as the Committee may consider appropriate to prevent dilution or enlargement of rights. 
 10.5 No Other Rights. Except as expressly provided in the Plan, no Participant shall have any rights by reason of any subdivision or consolidation
of Shares of any class, the payment of any dividend, any increase or decrease in the number of shares of any class or any dissolution, liquidation, merger, or consolidation of the Company or any other corporation. Except as expressly provided in the
Plan or pursuant to action of the Committee under the Plan, no issuance by the Company of shares of any class, or securities convertible into shares of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the
number of shares subject to an Award or the grant or exercise price of any Award. 
 ARTICLE 11 
 ADMINISTRATION 
 11.1
Committee. The Plan shall be administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board; provided, however that the Compensation Committee may delegate to a committee the authority to grant or amend Awards to Participants other than
Independent Directors and executive officers of the Company (such committee being the “Committee”). The Committee shall consist of two or more individuals who are officers and/or directors of the Company. Reference to the Committee shall
refer to the Board if the Compensation Committee ceases to exist and the Board does not appoint a successor Committee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the full Board, acting by majority of its members in office shall conduct the general

price, or purchase price, any restrictions or limitations on the Award, any schedule for lapse of forfeiture restrictions or restrictions on the exercisability of an Award, and accelerations or waivers thereof, any provisions related to
non-competition and recapture of gain on an Award, based in each case on such considerations as the Committee in its sole discretion determines;

or surrendered; 
 (f) Prescribe the form of each Award Agreement, which need not be identical for each Participant;

 ARTICLE 12 
 EFFECTIVE AND EXPIRATION DATE 
 12.1 Effective Date. The Plan is effective as of the date the Plan is approved by the Company’s shareholders (the “Effective
Date”). The Plan will be deemed to be approved by the shareholders if it receives the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the share capital of the Company present or represented and entitled to vote at a meeting duly held in

exercise the Options prior to the Effective Date. 
  

 16 

 12.2 Expiration Date. The Plan will expire on, and no Award may be granted pursuant to the Plan

MODIFICATION, AND TERMINATION 
 13.1 Amendment, Modification, And Termination. With the approval of the Board, at any time and
from time to time, the Committee may terminate, amend or modify the Plan; provided, however, that (a) to the extent necessary and desirable to comply with any applicable law, regulation, or stock exchange rule, the Company shall obtain
shareholder approval of any Plan amendment in such a manner and to such a degree as required, and (b) shareholder approval is required for any amendment to the Plan that (i) increases the number of Shares available under the Plan (other

Option beyond ten years from the date of grant, or (iv) results in a material increase in benefits or a change in eligibility requirements. 
 13.2 Awards Previously Granted. Except with respect to amendments made pursuant to Section 14.14, no termination, amendment, or modification of the Plan shall adversely affect in any material way any Award previously granted
pursuant to the Plan without the prior written consent of the Participant. 
 ARTICLE 14 
 GENERAL PROVISIONS 
 14.1 No Rights
to Awards. No Participant, employee, or other person shall have any claim to be granted any Award pursuant to the Plan, and neither the Company nor the Committee is obligated to treat Participants, employees, and other persons uniformly.

 14.2 No Shareholders Rights. No Award gives the Participant any of the rights of a Shareholder of the Company unless and until
Shares are in fact issued to such person in connection with such Award. 
 14.3 Taxes. No Shares shall be delivered under the Plan to
any Participant until such Participant has made arrangements acceptable to the Committee for the satisfaction of any income and employment tax withholding obligations under Applicable Laws, including without limitation the PRC tax laws, rules,
regulations and government orders or the U.S. Federal, state or local tax laws, as applicable. The Company or any Subsidiary shall have the authority and the right to deduct or withhold, or require a Participant to remit to the Company, an amount
sufficient to satisfy federal, state, local and foreign taxes (including the Participant’s payroll tax obligations) required by law to be withheld with respect to any taxable event concerning a Participant arising as a result of this Plan. The
Committee may in its discretion and in satisfaction of the foregoing requirement allow a Participant to elect to have the Company 

  

 17 

 
withhold Shares otherwise issuable under an Award (or allow the return of Shares) having a Fair Market Value equal to the sums required to be withheld.
Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the number of Shares which may be withheld with respect to the issuance, vesting, exercise or payment of any Award (or which may be repurchased from the Participant of such Award after such Shares
were acquired by the Participant from the Company) in order to satisfy the Participant’s federal, state, local and foreign income and payroll tax liabilities with respect to the issuance, vesting, exercise or payment of the Award shall, unless
specifically approved by the Committee, be limited to the number of Shares which have a Fair Market Value on the date of withholding or repurchase equal to the aggregate amount of such liabilities based on the minimum statutory withholding rates for
federal, state, local and foreign income tax and payroll tax purposes that are applicable to such supplemental taxable income. 
 14.4 No
Right to Employment or Services. Nothing in the Plan or any Award Agreement shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Service Recipient to terminate any Participant’s employment or services at any time, nor confer upon any
Participant any right to continue in the employ or service of any Service Recipient. 
 14.5 Unfunded Status of Awards. The Plan is
intended to be an “unfunded” plan for incentive compensation. With respect to any payments not yet made to a Participant pursuant to an Award, nothing contained in the Plan or any Award Agreement shall give the Participant any rights that
are greater than those of a general creditor of the Company or any Subsidiary. 
 14.6 Indemnification. To the extent allowable
pursuant to applicable law, each member of the Committee or of the Board shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company from any loss, cost, liability, or expense that may be imposed upon or reasonably incurred by such member in connection
with or resulting from any claim, action, suit, or proceeding to which he or she may be a party or in which he or she may be involved by reason of any action or failure to act pursuant to the Plan and against and from any and all amounts paid by him
or her in satisfaction of judgment in such action, suit, or proceeding against him or her; provided he or she gives the Company an opportunity, at its own expense, to handle and defend the same before he or she undertakes to handle and defend
it on his or her own behalf. The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be exclusive of any other rights of indemnification to which such persons may be entitled pursuant to the Company’s Memorandum of Association and Articles of
Association, as a matter of law, or otherwise, or any power that the Company may have to indemnify them or hold them harmless. 
 14.7
Relationship to other Benefits. No payment pursuant to the Plan shall be taken into account in determining any benefits pursuant to any pension, retirement, savings, profit sharing, group insurance, welfare or other benefit plan of the
Company or any Subsidiary except to the extent otherwise expressly provided in writing in such other plan or an agreement thereunder. 
 14.8
Expenses. The expenses of administering the Plan shall be borne by the Company and its Subsidiaries. 
 14.9 Titles and
Headings. The titles and headings of the Sections in the Plan are for convenience of reference only and, in the event of any conflict, the text of the Plan, rather than such titles or headings, shall control. 
  

 18 

 14.10 Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Share shall be issued and the Committee shall
determine, in its discretion, whether cash shall be given in lieu of fractional shares or whether such fractional shares shall be eliminated by rounding up or down as appropriate. 
 14.11 Government and Other Regulations. The obligation of the Company to make payment of awards in Share or otherwise shall be subject to all
Applicable Laws, rules, and regulations, and to such approvals by government agencies as may be required. The Company shall be under no obligation to register any of the Shares paid pursuant to the Plan under the Securities Act or any other similar
law in any applicable jurisdiction. If the Shares paid pursuant to the Plan may in certain circumstances be exempt from registration pursuant to the Securities Act or other Applicable Laws the Company may restrict the transfer of such shares in such
manner as it deems advisable to ensure the availability of any such exemption. 
 14.12 Governing Law. The Plan and all Award
Agreements shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the Cayman Islands. 
 14.13 Section 409A. To the
extent that the Committee determines that any Award granted under the Plan is or may become subject to Section 409A of the Code, the Award Agreement evidencing such Award shall incorporate the terms and conditions required by Section 409A
of the Code. To the extent applicable, the Plan and the Award Agreements shall be interpreted in accordance with Section 409A of the Code and the U.S. Department of Treasury regulations and other interpretative guidance issued thereunder,
including without limitation any such regulation or other guidance that may be issued after the Effective Date. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, in the event that following the Effective Date the Committee determines that
any Award may be subject to Section 409A of the Code and related Department of Treasury guidance (including such Department of Treasury guidance as may be issued after the Effective Date), the Committee may adopt such amendments to the Plan and
the applicable Award agreement or adopt other policies and procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive effect), or take any other actions, that the Committee determines is necessary or appropriate to (a) exempt
the Award from Section 409A of the Code and /or preserve the intended tax treatment of the benefits provided with respect to the Award, or (b) comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and related U.S. Department of
Treasury guidance. 
 14.14 Appendices. The Committee may approve such supplements, amendments or appendices to the Plan as it may
consider necessary or appropriate for purposes of compliance with applicable laws or otherwise and such supplements, amendments or appendices shall be considered a part of the Plan; provided, however, that no such supplements shall increase the
share limitations contained in Sections 3.1 and 3.3 of the Plan.

 RETIREMENT 
 You have submitted to Red Hat an irrevocable letter of retirement from employment at Red Hat and resigned as an officer of Red Hat, effective as of the date hereof (“Retirement Date”). 
 SCOPE OF CONSULTING SERVICES 
 Following your Retirement Date and during the
term of this Agreement, you will make yourself available at reasonable times to provide business consulting services to the Company and its directors, officers and employees, as reasonably requested by either the Chief Executive Officer or General
Counsel of the Company. Included among the matters to which the Company presently expects to call upon you to devote attention during the term of this relationship is the provision of assistance with Red Hat’s focus on the telecommunications,
financial services and healthcare industry verticals. Services will be scheduled with reasonable notice, and we will work cooperatively to plan your activities. Additionally, you may perform the requested work from home or other locations, except to
the extent the work requires you to be present at Red Hat. You agree that you will provide your own equipment and materials necessary for performing the requested work. 
 TERM OF SERVICE 
 The term of this Agreement will commence on the Retirement Date, and will expire on the earlier of
April 15, 2007 and a date six (6) months following the Retirement Date, unless this Agreement is otherwise terminated as provided for herein.
