 DOLE FOOD COMPANY, INC. 

STANDARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR 
 PERFORMANCE SHARES 
 These Standard Terms and Conditions apply to the Award of performance
shares granted pursuant to the Dole Food Company, Inc. 2009 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), which are evidenced by a Grant Notice or an action of the Administrator that specifically refers to these Standard Terms and Conditions. In
addition to these Terms and Conditions, the performance shares shall be subject to the terms of the Plan, which are incorporated into these Standard Terms and Conditions by this reference. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have
the meaning set forth in the Plan. 
  

	1.	TERMS OF PERFORMANCE SHARES 

 Dole Food Company, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), has granted to the Participant named in the Grant Notice (including Attachment A thereto) provided to said Participant herewith
(the “Grant Notice”) an opportunity to earn a target number of performance shares (the “Award” or the “Performance Shares”) specified in the Grant Notice. Each Performance Share represents the right, pursuant to
Section 9 of the Plan, to receive one share of the Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Grant Notice, these Standard Terms and
Conditions, and the Plan, each as amended from time to time. For purposes of these Standard Terms and Conditions and the Grant Notice, any reference to the Company shall include a reference to any Subsidiary. 

 

	2.	VESTING OF PERFORMANCE SHARES 

 The Award shall not be vested as of the Grant Date set forth in the Grant Notice and shall be forfeitable unless and until otherwise vested pursuant to the terms of the Grant Notice and these Standard
Terms and Conditions. After the Grant Date, subject to termination or acceleration as provided in these Standard Terms and Conditions and the Plan, the Award shall become vested as described in the Grant Notice with respect to that number of
Performance Shares earned as set forth in the Grant Notice and Attachment A thereto. Notwithstanding anything contained in these Standard Terms and Conditions to the contrary, upon the Participant’s Termination of Employment for any reason
(including by reason of death, Retirement or Disability), any then unvested Performance Shares (after taking into account any accelerated vesting under Section 17 of the Plan or any other agreement between the Participant and the Company
(including any accelerated vesting to which the Participant is entitled in the event of a “Qualified Termination” under a Change of Control Agreement between the Participant and the Company), if applicable) held by the Participant shall be
forfeited and canceled as of the date of such Termination of Employment. 
  

	3.	SETTLEMENT OF PERFORMANCE SHARES 

 Earned and vested Performance Shares shall be settled by the delivery to the Participant or a designated brokerage firm of one share of Common Stock per earned and vested

 
Performance Share as soon as reasonably practicable following the vesting of such Performance Shares, and in all events no later than March 15 of the year following the year in which the
Performance Cycle (as set forth in the Grant Notice) ends (unless delivery is deferred pursuant to a nonqualified deferred compensation plan in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code). 

 

	4.	RIGHTS AS STOCKHOLDER 

The Participant shall have no voting rights or the right to receive any dividends with respect to shares of Common Stock underlying earned
or unearned Performance Shares unless and until such shares of Common Stock are reflected as issued and outstanding shares on the Company’s stock ledger. 
  

	5.	RESTRICTIONS ON RESALES OF SHARES 

 The Company may impose such restrictions, conditions or limitations as it determines appropriate as to the timing and manner of any resales by the Participant or other subsequent transfers by the
Participant of any Common Stock issued in respect of earned and vested Performance Shares, including without limitation (a) restrictions under an insider trading policy, (b) restrictions designed to delay and/or coordinate the timing and
manner of sales by Participant and other holders and (c) restrictions as to the use of a specified brokerage firm for such resales or other transfers. 
  

	6.	INCOME TAXES 

 The Company
shall not deliver shares in respect of any earned Performance Shares unless and until the Participant has made arrangements satisfactory to the Administrator to satisfy applicable withholding tax obligations. Unless the Participant pays the
withholding tax obligations to the Company by cash or check in connection with the delivery of the Common Stock, withholding may be effected, at the Company’s option, by withholding Common Stock issuable in connection with the vesting of the
Performance Shares (provided that shares of Common Stock may be withheld only to the extent that such withholding will not result in adverse accounting treatment for the Company). The Participant acknowledges that the Company shall have the right to
deduct any taxes required to be withheld by law in connection with the delivery of the Performance Shares from any amounts payable by it to the Participant (including, without limitation, future cash wages). 

 

	7.	NON-TRANSFERABILITY OF AWARD 

 The Participant represents and warrants that the Performance Shares and any shares of Common Stock issued in respect of the Performance Shares are being acquired by the Participant solely for the
Participant’s own account for investment and not with a view to or for sale in connection with any distribution thereof. The Participant further understands, acknowledges and agrees that, except as otherwise provided in the Plan or as permitted
by the Administrator, the Performance Shares may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise directly or indirectly encumbered or disposed of. 

	8.	OTHER AGREEMENTS SUPERSEDED 

 The Grant Notice, these Standard Terms and Conditions and the Plan constitute the entire understanding between the Participant and the Company regarding the Performance Shares. Any prior agreements,
commitments or negotiations concerning the Performance Shares are superseded. 
  

	9.	LIMITATION OF INTEREST IN SHARES SUBJECT TO PERFORMANCE SHARES 

 Neither the Participant (individually or as a member of a group) nor any beneficiary or other person claiming under or through the Participant shall have any right, title, interest, or privilege in or to
any shares of Common Stock allocated or reserved for the purpose of the Plan or subject to the Grant Notice or these Standard Terms and Conditions except as to such shares of Common Stock, if any, as shall have been issued to such person upon
vesting of the Performance Shares. Nothing in the Plan, in the Grant Notice, these Standard Terms and Conditions or any other instrument executed pursuant to the Plan shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue in the Company’s
employ or service nor limit in any way the Company’s right to terminate the Participant’s employment at any time for any reason. 
  

	10.	GENERAL 

 In the event
that any provision of these Standard Terms and Conditions is declared to be illegal, invalid or otherwise unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall be reformed, if possible, to the extent necessary to render it legal,
valid and enforceable, or otherwise deleted, and the remainder of these Standard Terms and Conditions shall not be affected except to the extent necessary to reform or delete such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision. 

The headings preceding the text of the sections hereof are inserted solely for convenience of reference, and shall not constitute a part
of these Standard Terms and Conditions, nor shall they affect its meaning, construction or effect. 
 These Standard Terms and
Conditions shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective permitted heirs, beneficiaries, successors and assigns. 
 These Standard Terms and Conditions shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to principles of conflicts of law. 

In the event of any conflict between the Grant Notice, these Standard Terms and Conditions and the Plan, the Grant Notice and these
Standard Terms and Conditions shall control. In the event of any conflict between the Grant Notice and these Standard Terms and Conditions, the Grant Notice shall control. 

 All questions arising under the Plan or under these Standard Terms and Conditions shall be

STANDARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR 
 RESTRICTED STOCK 
 These Standard Terms and Conditions apply to the Award of restricted
stock granted pursuant to the Dole Food Company, Inc. 2009 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), which are evidenced by a Grant Notice or an action of the Administrator that specifically refers to these Standard Terms and Conditions. In
addition to these Terms and Conditions, the restricted stock shall be subject to the terms of the Plan, which are incorporated into these Standard Terms and Conditions by this reference. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the
meaning set forth in the Plan. 
  

	1.	TERMS OF RESTRICTED STOCK 

Dole Food Company, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), has granted to the Participant named in the Grant Notice
provided to said Participant herewith (the “Grant Notice”) an award of a number of restricted shares (the “Award” or the “Restricted Stock”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 (the “Common
Stock”) specified in the Grant Notice. The Award is subject to the conditions set forth in the Grant Notice, these Standard Terms and Conditions, and the Plan, each as amended from time to time. For purposes of these Standard Terms and
Conditions and the Grant Notice, any reference to the Company shall include a reference to any Subsidiary. 
  

	2.	VESTING OF RESTRICTED STOCK 

 The Award shall not be vested as of the Grant Date set forth in the Grant Notice and shall be forfeitable unless and until otherwise vested pursuant to the terms of the Grant Notice and these Standard
Terms and Conditions. After the Grant Date, subject to termination or acceleration as provided in these Standard Terms and Conditions and the Plan, the Award shall become vested as described in the Grant Notice with respect to that number of shares
of Restricted Stock as set forth in the Grant Notice. Shares of Restricted Stock that have vested and are no longer subject to forfeiture are referred to herein as “Vested Shares.” Shares of Restricted Stock awarded hereunder that are not
vested and remain subject to forfeiture are referred to herein as “Unvested Shares.” Notwithstanding anything contained in these Standard Terms and Conditions to the contrary, upon the Participant’s Termination of Employment for any
reason (including by reason of death, Retirement or Disability), any then Unvested Shares (after taking into account any accelerated vesting under Section 17 of the Plan or any other agreement between the Participant and the Company (including
any accelerated vesting to which the Participant is entitled in the event of a “Qualified Termination” under a Change of Control Agreement between the Participant and the Company), if applicable) held by the Participant shall be forfeited
and canceled as of the date of such Termination of Employment. 

	3.	RIGHTS AS STOCKHOLDER 

From and after the Grant Date, the Participant shall have all of the ownership, voting rights, dividend rights and all other rights of a
stockholder of the Company with respect to the Restricted Stock, except that (i) such rights as to Unvested Shares shall terminate upon the forfeiture of such Unvested Shares as and to the extent specifically provided in Section 2 above
and (ii) dividends payable in cash shall, with respect to any Unvested Shares, be automatically reinvested in additional shares of Common Stock at a purchase price per share equal to the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date
such dividend is paid; provided, however that any fractional share shall be rounded up to a whole share. Any additional shares of Common Stock accrued for the Participant through dividends on Unvested Shares, whether through reinvestment or through
a dividend paid in shares of Common Stock, shall be subject to the same restrictions on transferability and risk of forfeiture as the Unvested Shares with respect to which they were distributed. 

 

	4.	RESTRICTIONS ON RESALES OF SHARES 

 The Company may impose such restrictions, conditions or limitations as it determines appropriate as to the timing and manner of any resales by the Participant or other subsequent transfers by the
Participant of any Vested Shares, including without limitation (a) restrictions under an insider trading policy, (b) restrictions designed to delay and/or coordinate the timing and manner of sales by Participant and other holders and
(c) restrictions as to the use of a specified brokerage firm for such resales or other transfers. 
  

	5.	INCOME TAXES 

 To the
extent required by applicable federal, state, local or foreign law, the Participant shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for the satisfaction of any withholding tax obligations that arise by reason of the grant or vesting of the
Restricted Stock. The Company shall not be required to issue shares or to recognize the disposition of such shares until such obligations are satisfied. Unless the Participant pays the withholding tax obligations to the Company by cash or check,
withholding may be effected, at the Company’s option, by withholding Common Stock issuable in connection with the Award (provided that shares of Common Stock may be withheld only to the extent that such withholding will not result in adverse
accounting treatment for the Company). The Participant acknowledges that the Company shall have the right to deduct any taxes required to be withheld by law in connection with the Award from any amounts payable by it to the Participant (including,
without limitation, future cash wages). 
  

	6.	NON-TRANSFERABILITY OF UNVESTED SHARES 

 The Participant represents and warrants that the shares of Restricted Stock are being acquired by the Participant solely for the Participant’s own account for investment and not with a view to or for
sale in connection with any distribution thereof. The Participant 

 
further understands, acknowledges and agrees that, except as otherwise provided in the Plan or as permitted by the Administrator, the Unvested Shares may not be sold, assigned, transferred,
pledged or otherwise directly or indirectly encumbered or disposed of. 
  

	7.	OTHER AGREEMENTS SUPERSEDED 

 The Grant Notice, these Standard Terms and Conditions and the Plan constitute the entire understanding between the Participant and the Company regarding the Restricted Stock. Any prior agreements,
commitments or negotiations concerning the Restricted Stock are superseded. 
  

	8.	LIMITATION OF INTEREST IN SHARES SUBJECT TO RESTRICTED STOCK

any shares of Common Stock allocated or reserved for the purpose of the Plan or subject to the Grant Notice or these Standard Terms and Conditions except as to such shares of Common Stock, if any, as shall have been issued to such person in
connection with the Award. Nothing in the Plan, in the Grant Notice, these Standard Terms and Conditions or any other instrument executed pursuant to the Plan shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue in the Company’s employ or
service nor limit in any way the Company’s right to terminate the Participant’s employment at any time for any reason. 
  

	9.	GENERAL 

 In the event
that any provision of these Standard Terms and Conditions is declared to be illegal, invalid or otherwise unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall be reformed, if possible, to the extent necessary to render it legal,
valid and enforceable, or otherwise deleted, and the remainder of these Standard Terms and Conditions shall not be affected except to the extent necessary to reform or delete such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision. 

The headings preceding the text of the sections hereof are inserted solely for convenience of reference, and shall not constitute a part
of these Standard Terms and Conditions, nor shall they affect its meaning, construction or effect. 
 These Standard Terms and
Conditions shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective permitted heirs, beneficiaries, successors and assigns.
