Dear Janesh: 
 This letter agreement (the
“Agreement”) is entered into between Elasticsearch, Inc. (the “Company” or “we”) and you. This Agreement is effective as of the date signed below (the “Effective
Date”). The purpose of this Agreement is to confirm the current terms and conditions of your employment. 
 1. Position.
Your current title is Chief Financial Officer. This is a full-time position. While you render services to the Company, you will not engage in any other employment, consulting or other business activity (whether
full-time or part-time). By signing this Agreement, you confirm to the Company that you have no contractual commitments or other legal obligations that would prohibit you from performing your duties for the
Company. 
 2. Cash Compensation. 

(a) Base Salary. Your current annual base salary as of the Effective Date is $330,000 per year, less applicable withholding, which will
be paid in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll procedures. 
 (b) Annual Incentive Compensation. Your annual target
incentive compensation for fiscal year 2019 is equal to 40% of your annual base salary, less applicable withholding, and will be subject to the terms and conditions of the Company’s Executive Incentive Compensation Plan or any successor plan or
arrangement adopted and implemented by the Company. 
 You should note that the Company reserves the right to modify salaries and/or incentive compensation
opportunities from time to time as it deems necessary. 
 3. Employee Benefits. As a full-time employee, you will continue to be
eligible to participate in the Company’s standard benefits as in effect from time to time, on the same basis as those benefits are generally made available to other similarly situated employees of the company, and subject to the Company’s
policies. Such benefits are subject to change, and may be supplemented, altered, or eliminated, in part or entirely. Any eligibility to participate in such benefits plans, as well as the terms thereof, shall be as set forth in the governing
documents for such plans, or there are no such governing documents, in the Company’s policies. 
 4.
Severance & Change of Control Benefits. In connection with executing this Agreement, you are also entering into the Change in Control and Severance Agreement between you and the Company (the “Severance
Agreement”), which is incorporated herein by reference. 

 5. Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement. As an employee of the Company, you
will continue to have access to certain confidential information of the Company and you may, during the course of your employment, develop certain information or inventions that will be the property of the Company. To protect the interests of the
Company, your acceptance of this letter reaffirms that the terms of the Company’s Employment, Confidential Information and Invention Assignment Agreement that you executed in connection with your hire (the “Confidentiality
Agreement”) continue to be in effect. 
 6. Employment Relationship. Employment with the Company is for no specific
period of time. Your employment with the Company continues to be “at will,” meaning that either you or the Company may terminate your employment at any time and for any reason, with or without cause. Any contrary representations that may
have been made to you are superseded by this Agreement. This is the full and complete Agreement between you and the Company on this term. Although your job duties, title, compensation and benefits, as well as the Company’s personnel policies
and procedures, may change from time to time, the “at will” nature of your employment may only be changed in an express written agreement signed by you and a duly authorized officer of the Company (other than you). 

7. Tax Matters. 
 (a)
Withholding. All forms of compensation referred to in this letter agreement are subject to reduction to reflect applicable withholding and payroll taxes and other deductions required by law. 

(b) Section 409A. The Company intends that all payments and benefits provided under this Agreement or otherwise are exempt from, or
comply with, the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and any guidance promulgated thereunder (“Section 409A”) so that none of the payments or
benefits will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities will be interpreted to so be exempt or comply. 
 (c)
Tax Advice. You are encouraged to obtain your own tax advice regarding your compensation from the Company. You agree that the Company does not have a duty to design its compensation policies in a manner that minimizes your tax liabilities,
and you will not make any claim against the Company or its Board of Directors or Compensation Committee related to tax liabilities arising from your compensation. 

8. Entire Agreement, Amendment and Enforcement. This Agreement, the Severance Agreement and the Confidentiality Agreement supersede and
replace any prior agreements, representations or understandings (whether written, oral, implied or otherwise) between you and the Company, including, but not limited to your offer letter with the Company dated 18 July 2017, and constitute the
complete agreement between you and the Company regarding the subject matter set forth herein. This Agreement may not be amended or modified, except by an express written agreement signed by both you and a duly authorized officer of the Company. The
terms of this Agreement and the resolution of any disputes as to the meaning, effect, performance or validity of this Agreement or arising out of, related to, or in any way connected with, this Agreement, your employment with the Company or any
other relationship between you and the 

 
Company (the “Disputes”) will be governed by California law, excluding laws relating to conflicts or choice of law. You and the Company submit to the exclusive personal
jurisdiction of the federal and state courts located in California in connection with any Dispute or any claim related to any Dispute.
