 ITRON, INC. 
 2010 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN 
 LONG TERM PERFORMANCE 

RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT 
 FOR INTERNATIONAL PARTICIPANTS (EXCLUDING FRANCE) 

Pursuant to your Performance Restricted Stock Unit Award Notice (the “Award Notice”), this
Performance Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement, including Appendices A and B (this “Agreement”) and Itron, Inc. (the “Company”) has granted you a performance restricted stock unit award (the
“Award”) under its 2010 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). Capitalized terms not expressly defined in this Agreement but defined in the Plan shall have the same definitions as in the Plan, as
applicable. 
 The details of the Award are as follows: 

 

	1.	 Number of Units Subject to Award 

 This Award is a performance based award which is based on targets set by the Plan Administrator at the beginning of the performance year (calendar year 2011 in this case) (the “Performance
Period”). Performance goals are set forth in Appendix A along with your target number of Units for the Performance Period. At the end of the Performance Period, the Plan Administrator shall determine the number of Units that are
eligible for vesting under the Award. The Plan Administrator will communicate this number to you as soon as practicable after the end of the Performance Period. The Units will vest in accordance with Section 2 below. 

 

	2.	 Vesting 

 The Award will vest to the extent the performance goals set forth in Appendix A are attained as determined by the Plan Administrator and according to the vesting schedule set forth in the Award
Notice (the “Vesting Schedule”). One share of Common Stock will be issuable for each performance restricted stock unit that vests. Performance restricted stock units that have vested and are no longer subject to forfeiture
according to the Vesting Schedule are referred to herein as “Vested Units.” Performance Restricted Stock Units that have not vested and remain subject to forfeiture under the Vesting Schedule are referred to herein as
“Unvested Units.” The Unvested and Vested Units are collectively referred to herein as the “Units”. The Award will terminate and the Unvested Units will be subject to forfeiture upon termination of
your employment as set forth in Section 3.1. 
  

	3.	 Termination of Employment; Change in Control Transaction 

3.1 Termination of Employment 

Except as provided in Section 3.2 below, if your employment terminates during the Performance Period by reason of
(a) death or (b) Disability, the number of Units that become eligible for vesting according to the Vesting Schedule (based on the attainment of the 

  
 3 

 
performance goals as assessed after the end of the Performance Period) shall be pro-rated based on the number of calendar days of employment with the Company or a Related Corporation during the
Performance Period (rounded down to the nearest whole number) and such Units shall vest as of the date of termination but shall be settled in accordance with Section 4 below. 

Except as provided in Section 3.2 below, if your employment terminates during the three-year vesting period
following the Performance Period by reason of (a) death or (b) Disability, the Unvested Units shall vest as of the date of termination but shall be settled in accordance with Section 4 below. 

If your employment terminates for any other reason, any Unvested Units will be forfeited upon termination of your
employment. 
 Subject to Section 9.1 below, the Company may cause the Unvested Units to vest with respect
to such number of Units as may be necessary to satisfy any Tax-Related Items (as defined in Section 9.1 below) that may arise prior to the date the Units are settled in accordance with Section 4 below. 

3.2 Change in Control Transaction 

In the event of a Change in Control Transaction during the Performance Period, the number of PSUs subject to the Award
shall be the greater of (a) the target number of PSUs subject to the Award or (b) the actual number of PSUs subject to the Award as determined based on the attainment of the performance goals if the Plan Administrator determines that the
attainment of the performance goals may be determined as of the date of the Change in Control Transaction, pro-rated based on the portion of the Performance Period that has elapsed between the Award Date and the date of the Change in Control
Transaction. 
 In the event of a Change in Control Transaction during the three-year vesting period following
the Performance Period, any Unvested Units will accelerate in vesting and become Vested Units immediately prior to such transaction. 
  

	4.	 Settlement of Vested Units. 

 Vested Units shall be settled within thirty (30) days following the applicable Vest Date(s) set forth in the Award Notice, or, if earlier, upon the earlier of (a) a date within thirty
(30) days following your death or (b) a date within five (5) days of a Change in Control, provided that, in the case of U.S. taxpayers, if the Units or settlement of the Units constitute an item of deferred compensation under
Section 409A of the Code and the Change in Control does not constitute a “change in control event” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, the Vested Units shall be settled on the earlier of the applicable Vest Date(s)
set forth in the Award Notice or a date within thirty (30) days following your death. 
  

	5.	 Securities Law Compliance 

 5.1 You represent and warrant that you (a) have been furnished with a copy of the prospectus for the Plan and all information which you deem necessary to evaluate the merits and risks of
receipt of the Award, (b) have had the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers 

  
 4 

 
concerning the information received about the Award and the Company, and (c) have been given the opportunity to obtain any additional information you deem necessary to verify the accuracy of
any information obtained concerning the Award and the Company. 
 5.2 You hereby agree that you will in
no event sell or distribute all or any part of the shares of Common Stock that you receive pursuant to settlement of this Award (the “Shares”) unless (a) there is an effective registration statement under the U.S.
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and any applicable state and foreign securities laws covering any such transaction involving the Shares or (b) the Company receives an opinion of your legal
counsel (concurred in by legal counsel for the Company) stating that such transaction is exempt from registration or the Company otherwise satisfies itself that such transaction is exempt from registration. You understand that the Company has no
obligation to you to register the Shares with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission or any foreign securities regulator and has not represented to you that it will so register the Shares. 

5.3 You confirm that you have been advised, prior to your receipt of the Shares, that neither the offering of the
Shares nor any offering materials have been reviewed by any regulator under the Securities Act or any other applicable securities act (the “Acts”) and that the Shares cannot be resold unless they are registered under the Acts
or unless an exemption from such registration is available. 
 5.4 You hereby agree to indemnify the
Company and hold it harmless from and against any loss, claim or liability, including attorneys’ fees or legal expenses, incurred by the Company as a result of any breach by you of, or any inaccuracy in, any representation, warranty or
statement made by you in this Agreement or the breach by you of any terms or conditions of this Agreement. 
  

	6.	 Transfer Restrictions 

 Units shall not be sold, transferred, assigned, encumbered, pledged or otherwise disposed of, whether voluntarily or by operation of law. 

 

	7.	 No Rights as Shareholder 

 You shall not have voting or other rights as a shareholder of the Company with respect to the Units. 
  

	8.	 Book Entry Registration of Shares 

 The Company will issue the Shares by registering the Shares in book entry form with the Company’s transfer agent in your name and the applicable restrictions will be noted in the records of the
Company’s transfer agent and in the book entry system. 
  

	9.	 Responsibility for Taxes 

 9.1 Regardless of any action the Company or your employer (the “Employer”) take with respect to any and all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other
tax-related items related to your participation in the Plan and legally applicable to you (“Tax-

  
 5 

 
Related Items”), you acknowledge that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items is and remains your responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company and/or
the Employer. You further acknowledge that the Company and the Employer (a) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Award, including, but not limited to, the
granting or vesting of the Award, the settlement of Vested Units, the issuance of Shares upon settlement of the Vested Units, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired upon settlement of the Vested Units and the receipt of any dividends; and
(b) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Award to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if you have become
subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction between the Grant Date and the date of any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, you acknowledge that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be
required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 9.1, the right of the Company or the Employer to withhold any Tax-Related Items for any portion of the
Award that is considered deferred compensation subject to Code Section 409A shall be limited to the minimum amount permitted to avoid a prohibited acceleration under Section 409A of the Code. 

9.2 Prior to any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, you will pay or make adequate
arrangements satisfactory to the Company and or the Employer to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. 
 (a) In this
regard, you hereby irrevocably appoint Fidelity or any stock plan service provider or brokerage firm designated by the Company for such purpose (the "Agent") as your Agent, and authorize the Agent, to: 

 

	 	(i)	Sell on the open market at the then prevailing market price(s), on your behalf, as soon as practicable on or after the settlement date for any Vested Unit, the minimum
number of Shares (rounded up to the next whole number) sufficient to generate proceeds to cover the Tax-Related Items and all applicable fees and commissions due to, or required to be collected by, the Agent; 

 

	 	(ii)	Remit directly to the Company the cash amount necessary to cover the Tax-Related Items; 

 

	 	(iii)	Retain the amount required to cover all applicable fees and commissions due to, or required to be collected by, the Agent, relating directly to the sale of Shares
referred to in clause (i) above; and 

  

	 	(iv)	Remit any remaining funds to you. 

 (b) Alternatively, or in addition to or in combination with the withholding mechanism described in Section 9.2(a), you authorize the Company and/or the Employer, at their discretion, to satisfy the
obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by: 
  

	 	(i)	 requiring you to pay to the Company or the Employer any amount of the Tax-Related Items; and/or 

  
 6 

	 	(ii)	withholding any amount of the Tax-Related Items from your wages or other cash compensation paid to you by the Company and/or the Employer; and/or

  

	 	(iii)	withholding in Shares to be issued upon settlement of the Vested Units. 

(c) To avoid negative accounting treatment, the Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering
applicable minimum statutory withholding amounts or other applicable withholding rates. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in Shares, for tax purposes, you will be deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares
subject to the Vested Units notwithstanding that a number of the Shares are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of any aspect of your participation in the Plan. The Company may refuse to issue or deliver
Shares to you if you fail to comply with your obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items. 
 9.3
You acknowledge that the authorization and instruction to the Agent set forth in Section 9.2(a)(i) above to sell Shares to cover the Tax-Related Items is intended to comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c)(1)(i)(B) under the Exchange
Act and to be interpreted to comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c) under the Exchange Act (regarding trading of the Company’s securities on the basis of material nonpublic information) (a “10b5-1 Plan”). This
10b5-1 Plan is being adopted to permit you to sell a number of Shares issued upon settlement of Vested Units sufficient to pay the Tax-Related Items. 
 You acknowledge that the broker is under no obligation to arrange for the sale of Shares at any particular price. You further acknowledge that you will be responsible for all brokerage fees and other
costs of sale, and you agree to indemnify and hold the Company harmless from any losses, costs, damages, or expenses relating to any such sale. You acknowledge that it may not be possible to sell Shares during the term of this 10b5-1 Plan due to
(a) a legal or contractual restriction applicable to you or to the broker, (b) a market disruption, (c) rules governing order execution priority on the NASDAQ or other exchange where the Shares may be traded, (d) a sale effected
pursuant to this 10b5-1 Plan that fails to comply (or in the reasonable opinion of the Agent’s counsel is likely not to comply) with the Securities Act, or (e) if the Company determines that sales may not be effected under this 10b5-1
Plan. In the event of the Agent’s inability to sell Shares, you will continue to be responsible for the Tax-Related Items. 
 You hereby agree to execute and deliver to the Agent any other agreements or documents as the Agent reasonably deems necessary or appropriate to carry out the purposes and intent of the 10b5-1 Plan. You
acknowledge that this 10b5-1 Plan is subject to the terms of any policy adopted now or hereafter by the Company governing the adoption of 10b5-1 plans. The Agent is a third party beneficiary of Section 9.2(a)(i) and this 10b5-1 Plan.

	10.	 Nature of Grant 

 In accepting the grant, you acknowledge, understand and agree that: 
 (a) the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, it is discretionary in nature and it may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time; 

(b) the grant of the Award is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive
future grants of performance restricted stock units, or benefits in lieu of performance restricted stock units, even if performance restricted stock units have been granted repeatedly in the past; 

(c) all decisions with respect to future grants of performance restricted stock units, if any, will be at the sole
discretion of the Company; 
 (d) your participation in the Plan shall not create a right to further employment
with the Employer and shall not interfere with the ability of the Employer to terminate your employment relationship at any time; 
 (e) you are voluntarily participating in the Plan; 
 (f) the Award
and the Shares subject to the Award are an extraordinary item that does not constitute compensation of any kind for services of any kind rendered to the Company or the Employer, and which is outside the scope of your employment contract, if any;

 (g) the Award and the Shares subject to the Award are not intended to replace any pension rights or
compensation; 
 (h) the Award and the Shares subject to the Award are not part of normal or expected
compensation or salary for any purposes, including, but not limited to, calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar
payments and in no event should be considered as compensation for, or relating in any way to, past services for the Company, the Employer or any Related Corporation; 

(i) the grant of the Award and your participation in the Plan will not be interpreted to form an employment contract or
relationship with the Company or any Related Corporation; 
 (j) the future value of the underlying Shares is
unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty; 
 (k) no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall
arise from forfeiture of the Award resulting from termination of your employment by the Company or the Employer (for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of local labor laws) and, in consideration of the grant of the Award to which you
are otherwise not entitled, you irrevocably agree never to institute any claim against the Company or the Employer, waive the ability, if any, to bring any such claim and release the Company and the Employer from any such claim; if, notwithstanding
the foregoing, any such claim is allowed by a court of competent jurisdiction, then, by 

  
 8 

 
participating in the Plan, you will be deemed irrevocably to have agreed not to pursue such claim and agree to execute any and all documents necessary to request dismissal or withdrawal of such
claims; 
 (l) in the event of termination of your employment (whether or not in breach of local labor laws),
your right to vest in the Award, if any, will terminate effective as of the date that you are no longer actively employed and will not be extended by any notice period mandated under local law (e.g., active employment would not include a
period of “garden leave” or similar period pursuant to local law); the Company’s Chief Executive Officer shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when you are no longer actively employed for purposes of the Award; and

 (m) the Award and the benefits under the Plan, if any, will not necessarily transfer to another company in
the case of a merger, take over or transfer of liability.

Capitalized terms not expressly defined in this Appendix B but defined in the Plan or the Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement (the “Agreement”) shall have the same definitions as in the Plan and/or the Agreement, as
applicable. 
 Notifications 
 This Appendix B also includes information regarding exchange control and other issues of which you should be aware with respect to your participation in the Plan. The information is based on the

the only source of information relating to the consequences of participation in the Plan because the information may be out of date at the time that the Award vests or the Shares acquired under the Plan are sold. 

In addition, the information contained herein is general in nature and may not apply to your particular situation and the Company is not
in a position to assure you of a particular result. Accordingly, you are advised to seek appropriate professional advice as to how the relevant laws in your country may apply to your situation. 

Finally, if you are a citizen or resident of a country other than the one in which you are currently working, or if you transfer

 UNITED KINGDOM 
 Terms and Conditions 

Vesting. This provision supplements Section 2 of the Agreement: 

The grant of the Award does not provide any right for you to receive a cash payment and the Vested Units will be settled in Shares only.

 Responsibility for Taxes. The following provision supplements Section 9 of the Agreement: 

If payment or withholding of the income tax due is not made within ninety (90) days of the event giving rise to the liability or
such other period specified in Section 222(1)(c) of the U.K. Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003 (the “Due Date”), the amount of any uncollected income tax will constitute a loan owed by you to the Employer,
effective on the Due Date. You agree that the loan will bear interest at the then-current official rate of Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs (“HMRC”), it will be immediately due and repayable, and the Company or the
Employer may recover it at any time thereafter by any of the means referred to in Section 9.2 of the Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if you are a director or executive officer of the Company (within the meaning of Section 13(k)
of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), you will not be eligible for such a loan to cover the income tax due. In the event that you are a director or executive officer and the income tax due is not collected from or paid by you
by the Due Date, the amount of any uncollected income tax will constitute a benefit to you on which additional income tax and national insurance contributions will be payable. You acknowledge that the Company or the Employer may recover such amounts
from you by any of the means referred to in Section 9.2 of the Agreement. However, you are also responsible for reporting and paying any income tax and national insurance contributions due on this additional benefit directly to HMRC under the
self-assessment regime. 
 Joint Election. As a condition of your participation in the Plan, you agree to accept any
liability for secondary Class 1 national insurance contributions (the “Employer’s Liability”) which may be payable by the Company and/or the Employer in connection with the Award and any event giving rise to
Tax-Related Items. To accomplish the foregoing, you agree to execute the following joint election with the Company (the “Joint Election”), the form of such Joint Election being formally approved by HMRC, and any other
consent or elections required to accomplish the transfer of the Employer’s Liability to you. You further agree to execute such other joint elections as may be required between yourself and any successor to the Company

  
 14 

 
and/or the Employer. You further agree that the Company and/or the Employer may collect the Employer’s Liability by any of the means set forth in Section 9.2 of the Agreement.

 If you do not enter into a Joint Election prior to vesting of the Award or any other event giving rise to Tax-Related Items,
you will forfeit the Units and any benefits in connection with the Award, and any Shares that have been issued will be returned to the Company at no cost to the Company, without any liability to the Company and/or the Employer.

 2010 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN 
 Important Note on the Joint Election to
Transfer 
 Employer National Insurance Contributions 

As a condition of participation in the Itron, Inc. 2010 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) and the vesting of the restricted
stock unit award (the “Award”) that has been granted to you by Itron, Inc. (the “Company”), you are required to enter into a joint election to transfer to you any liability for employer national insurance contributions (the
“Employer’s Liability”) that may arise in connection with the Award, or in connection with future restricted stock unit awards, granted to you by the Company under the Plan (the “Joint Election”). 

If you do not agree to enter into the Joint Election, the Award will be worthless, as (under the terms of the Restricted Stock Unit
Award Agreement), you will not be able to vest in the Award or receive any benefit in connection with the Award. 
 By entering into the
Joint Election:

 ITRON, INC. 
 2010 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN 
 LONG TERM PERFORMANCE 

RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT 
 FOR PARTICIPANTS IN FRANCE 
 Pursuant to your Performance
Restricted Stock Unit Award Notice (the “Award Notice”) and this Performance Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement, including Appendix A (this “Agreement”), Itron, Inc. (the
“Company”) has granted you a performance restricted stock unit award (the “Award”) under its 2010 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) and the Rules of the Itron, Inc. 2010 Stock
Incentive Plan for the Grant of Restricted Stock Units to Participants in France (the “French RSU Plan” and together with the U.S. Plan, the “Plan”). Capitalized terms not expressly defined in this
Agreement but defined in the Plan shall have the same definitions as in the Plan, as applicable. 
 The Award is
intended to qualify for the favorable tax and social security treatment in France applicable to shares granted for no consideration under Sections L. 225-197-1 to L. 225-197-6 of the French Commercial Code, as amended. However, certain events may
affect the qualified status of the Award and the Company does not make any undertaking or representation to maintain the qualified status of the Award. If the Award does not retain its qualified status, the favorable tax and social security
treatment will not apply and you will be required to pay your portion of social security contributions resulting from the Award. 
 Moreover, if you relocate to another country, any special terms and conditions applicable to restricted stock unit awards granted in such country will apply to you, to the extent the Company determines
that the application of such terms and conditions is necessary or advisable in order to comply with local law or facilitate the administration of the Plan. 
 In addition, the Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on the Award and any Shares acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable in order to
comply with local law or facilitate the administration of the Plan, and to require you to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing. 

The details of the Award are as follows: 

 

	1.	 Number of Units Subject to Award 

 This Award is a performance based award which is based on targets set by the Plan Administrator at the beginning of the performance year (calendar year 2011 in this case) (the “Performance
Period”). Performance goals are set forth in Appendix A along with your target number of Units for the Performance Period. At the end of the Performance Period, the Plan Administrator shall determine the actual number of Units that are
eligible for vesting under the Award, in accordance with Appendix A and the performance goals set forth therein. The Plan Administrator will communicate this number to you as soon as practicable after the end of the Performance Period. The Units
will vest in accordance with Section 2 below. 

  
 3 

	2.	 Vesting and Settlement 

 The Award will vest to the extent the performance goals set forth in Appendix A are attained as determined by the Plan Administrator and according to the vesting schedule set forth in the Award Notice
(the “Vesting Schedule”). Performance restricted stock units that have vested and are no longer subject to forfeiture according to the Vesting Schedule are referred to herein as “Vested Units.”
Performance restricted stock units that have not vested and remain subject to forfeiture under the Vesting Schedule are referred to herein as “Unvested Units.” The Unvested and Vested Units are collectively referred to herein
as the “Units”. The Award will terminate and the Unvested Units will be subject to forfeiture upon termination of your employment as set forth in Section 4 below. 

Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, as soon as practicable after the Vesting Date, the Company will settle the
Vested Units by issuing to you one Share for each Vested Unit, subject to the provisions of Section 7 below. 
  

	3.	 Change in Control Transaction 

 In the event of a Change in Control Transaction during the Performance Period, the number of PSUs subject to the Award shall be the greater of (a) the target number of PSUs subject to the Award or
(b) the actual number of PSUs subject to the Award as determined based on the attainment of the performance goals if the Plan Administrator determines that the attainment of the performance goals may be determined as of the date of the Change
in Control Transaction, pro rated based on the portion of the Performance Period that has elapsed between the Date of Grant and the date of the Change in Control Transaction. 

In the event of a Change in Control Transaction during the period between the end of the Performance Period and the
Vesting Date, any Unvested Units will accelerate in vesting and become Vested Units immediately prior to such transaction. This may trigger the loss of the French favorable tax and social insurance contributions regime. 

 

	4.	 Termination of Employment 

 4.1 Death 
 If your employment terminates during the
Performance Period by reason of death, the actual number of Units that become eligible for vesting (based on the attainment of the performance goals as assessed after the end of the Performance Period) will become transferable to your heirs. The
Company will issue the Shares subject to such Units to your heirs after the end of the Performance Period, provided they contact the Company to request the issuance of the Shares within six (6) months following your death. If your heirs do not
request the issuance of the Shares within six (6) months of your death, all of the Units will be forfeited to the Company. 
 If your employment terminates during the period between the end of the Performance Period and the Vesting Date by reason of death, the actual number of Units that have become eligible for vesting will
become transferable to your heirs. The Company will issue the Shares subject to the Units to your heirs upon their request, provided they contact the Company with such a request within six (6) months following your death. If your heirs do not
request the 

  
 4 

 
issuance of the Shares within six (6) months of your death, the Units will be forfeited to the Company. 

4.2 Disability 
 If your employment terminates during the Performance Period by reason of Disability (as defined in the French RSU Plan), the number of Units that become eligible for vesting according to the Vesting
Schedule (based on the attainment of the performance goals as assessed after the end of the Performance Period) shall be pro-rated based on the number of calendar days of employment with the Company or a Related Corporation during the Performance
Period (rounded down to the nearest whole number) and such Units shall vest and be settled in accordance with the Vesting Schedule and Section 2 above. 
 If your employment terminates during the period between the end of the Performance Period and the Vesting Date by reason of Disability (as defined in the French RSU Plan), the Unvested Units shall vest
and be settled in accordance with the Vesting Schedule and Section 2 above. 
 4.3 Other 

If your employment terminates for any other reason during the Performance Period or the period between the end of the
Performance Period and the Vesting Date, any Unvested Units will be forfeited upon termination of your employment. 
  

	5.	 No Rights as Shareholder 

 You shall not have voting or other rights as a shareholder of the Company with respect to the Units. 
  

	6.	 Transferability of Units 

 Units shall not be sold, transferred, assigned, encumbered, pledged or otherwise disposed of, whether voluntarily or by operation of law. 

 

	7.	 Transferability of Shares 

 7.1 Holding Period 
 You are required to hold the Shares
issued pursuant to the vesting of the Units for two years as measured from the Vesting Date or such other period as is required to comply with the minimum mandatory holding period applicable to Shares underlying French-qualified Restricted Stock
Units (the “Holding Period”) in order to benefit from the French favorable tax and social insurance contributions regime, even if you are no longer an employee or corporate officer, as applicable, of a French Entity or
otherwise employed by the Company or a Subsidiary, if applicable. As from the end of the Holding Period, the corresponding Shares shall be freely transferable, subject to applicable legal and regulatory provisions in force and in particular to the
provisions of Section 7.2 below. 

  
 5 

 This Holding Period requirement shall not apply to your heirs should they
acquire Shares under the Plan pursuant to Section 4.1 above nor shall it apply if you terminate employment due to Disability (as defined in the French RSU Plan). 

7.2 Closed Period 
 As long as the Award and the Shares issued upon vesting of the Units maintain their qualified status and to the extent such restriction is applicable under French law, the Shares may not be sold during a
Closed Period (as defined in the French RSU Plan). 
 This Closed Period restriction shall not apply to your
heirs should they acquire Shares under the Plan pursuant to Section 4.1 above nor shall it apply if you terminate employment due to Disability (as defined in the French RSU Plan). 

7.3 Shareholding Restrictions 

If you qualify as a managing corporate officer (i.e., “mandataires sociaux,” Président
du Conseil d’Administration, Directeur Général, Directeur Général Délégué, Membre du Directoire, Gérant de Sociétés par actions) or have a comparable position in any
other company within the Company group, and if the Award is granted to you in such capacity, you are subject to shareholding restrictions and you must hold 20% of the Shares issued upon vesting of the Units and not sell such Shares until you cease
to serve as a managing corporate officer (or cease to have a comparable position as described herein), if required under French law. 
 7.4 Compliance with Transfer Restrictions 
 To ensure
compliance with the restrictions on the transfer of Shares described in Sections 7.1, 7.2 and 7.3 above, the Company may require that the Shares be held with Fidelity or any brokerage firm designated by the Company (or according to any procedure
implemented by the Company) until such Shares are sold. 
  

	8.	 Securities Law Compliance 

 8.1 You represent and warrant that you (a) have been furnished with a copy of the prospectus for the Plan and all information which you deem necessary to evaluate the merits and risks of
receipt of the Award, (b) have had the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers concerning the information received about the Award and the Company, and (c) have been given the opportunity to obtain any additional information you
deem necessary to verify the accuracy of any information obtained concerning the Award and the Company. 
 8.2
You hereby agree that you will in no event sell or distribute all or any part of the shares of Common Stock that you receive pursuant to settlement of this Award (the “Shares”) unless (a) there is an effective
registration statement under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and any applicable state and foreign securities laws covering any such transaction involving the Shares or (b) the Company
receives an opinion of your legal counsel (concurred in by legal counsel for the Company) stating that such transaction is exempt from registration or the Company otherwise satisfies itself that such transaction is exempt from registration. You
understand that the Company has no obligation to you to register the Shares 

  
 6 

 
with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission or any foreign securities regulator and has not represented to you that it will so register the Shares. 

8.3 You confirm that you have been advised, prior to your receipt of the Shares, that neither the offering of the
Shares nor any offering materials have been reviewed by any regulator under the Securities Act or any other applicable securities act (the “Acts”) and that the Shares cannot be resold unless they are registered under the Acts
or unless an exemption from such registration is available. 
 8.4 You hereby agree to indemnify the
Company and hold it harmless from and against any loss, claim or liability, including attorneys’ fees or legal expenses, incurred by the Company as a result of any breach by you of, or any inaccuracy in, any representation, warranty or
statement made by you in this Agreement or the breach by you of any terms or conditions of this Agreement. 
  

	9.	 Book Entry Registration of Shares 

 The Company will issue the Shares by registering the Shares in book entry form with the Company’s transfer agent in your name and the applicable restrictions will be noted in the records of the
Company’s transfer agent and in the book entry system. 
  

	10.	 Responsibility for Taxes 

 10.1 Regardless of any action the Company or your employer (the “Employer”) take with respect to any and all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or
other tax-related items related to your participation in the Plan and legally applicable to you (“Tax-Related Items”), you acknowledge that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items is and remains your responsibility
and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company and/or the Employer. You further acknowledge that the Company and the Employer (a) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection
with any aspect of the Award, including, but not limited to, the granting or vesting of the Award, the settlement of Vested Units, the issuance of Shares upon settlement of the Vested Units, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired upon settlement of
the Vested Units and the receipt of any dividends; and (b) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Award to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any
particular tax and/or social insurance contribution result. Further, if you have become subject to tax and/or social insurance contributions in more than one jurisdiction between the Date of Grant and the date of any relevant taxable or tax
withholding event, as applicable, you acknowledge that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction. 

10.2 Prior to any relevant taxable or tax and/or social insurance contribution withholding event, as applicable,
you will pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and or the Employer to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. 

  
 7 

 (a) In this regard, you hereby irrevocably appoint Fidelity or any stock
plan service provider or brokerage firm designated by the Company for such purpose (the "Agent") as your Agent, and authorize the Agent, to: 
  

	 	(i)	 Sell on the open market at the then prevailing market price(s), on your behalf, as soon as practicable on or after the settlement date for any
Vested Unit, the minimum number of Shares (rounded up to the next whole number) sufficient to generate proceeds to cover the Tax-Related Items and all applicable fees and commissions due to, or required to be collected by, the Agent;

  

	 	(ii)	 Remit directly to the Company the cash amount necessary to cover the Tax-Related Items; 

 

	 	(iii)	 Retain the amount required to cover all applicable fees and commissions due to, or required to be collected by, the Agent, relating directly to the
sale of Shares referred to in clause (i) above; and 

  

	 	(iv)	 Remit any remaining funds to you. 

 (b) Alternatively, or in addition to or in combination with the withholding mechanism described in Section 10.2(a), you authorize the Company and/or the Employer, at their discretion, to satisfy the
obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by: 
  

	 	(i)	 requiring you to pay to the Company or the Employer any amount of the Tax-Related Items; and/or 

 

	 	(ii)	 withholding any amount of the Tax-Related Items from your wages or other cash compensation paid to you by the Company and/or the Employer, within
legal limits; and/or 

  

	 	(iii)	 withholding in Shares to be issued upon settlement of the Vested Units. 

(c) If the amount withheld is greater than the actual Tax-Related Items, the difference will be refunded to you as soon
as practicable. To avoid negative accounting treatment, the Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding amounts or other applicable withholding rates. If the obligation for
Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in Shares, for tax and/or social insurance contribution purposes, you will be deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject to the Vested Units notwithstanding that a number of the Shares
are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of any aspect of your participation in the Plan. The Company may refuse to issue or deliver Shares to you if you fail to comply with your obligations in connection
with the Tax-Related Items. 
 10.3 You acknowledge that the authorization and instruction to the Agent
set forth in Section 10.2(a)(i) above to sell Shares to cover the Tax-Related Items is intended to comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c)(1)(i)(B) under the Exchange Act and to be interpreted to comply with the requirements of Rule
10b5-1(c) under the Exchange Act (regarding trading of 

  
 8 

 
the Company’s securities on the basis of material nonpublic information) (a “10b5-1 Plan”). This 10b5-1 Plan is being adopted to permit you to sell a number of Shares
issued upon settlement of Vested Units sufficient to pay the Tax-Related Items. 
 You acknowledge that the
broker is under no obligation to arrange for the sale of Shares at any particular price. You further acknowledge that you will be responsible for all brokerage fees and other costs of sale, and you agree to indemnify and hold the Company harmless
from any losses, costs, damages, or expenses relating to any such sale. You acknowledge that it may not be possible to sell Shares during the term of this 10b5-1 Plan due to (a) a legal or contractual restriction applicable to you or to the
broker, (b) a market disruption, (c) rules governing order execution priority on the NASDAQ or other exchange where the Shares may be traded, (d) a sale effected pursuant to this 10b5-1 Plan that fails to comply (or in the reasonable
opinion of the Agent’s counsel is likely not to comply) with the Securities Act, or (e) if the Company determines that sales may not be effected under this 10b5-1 Plan. In the event of the Agent’s inability to sell Shares, you will
continue to be responsible for the Tax-Related Items. 
 You hereby agree to execute and deliver to the Agent
any other agreements or documents as the Agent reasonably deems necessary or appropriate to carry out the purposes and intent of the 10b5-1 Plan. You acknowledge that this 10b5-1 Plan is subject to the terms of any policy adopted now or hereafter by
the Company governing the adoption of 10b5-1 plans. The Agent is a third party beneficiary of Section 10.2(a)(i) and this 10b5-1 Plan. 
  

	11.	 Nature of Grant 

 In accepting the grant, you acknowledge, understand and agree that: 
 (a) the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, it is discretionary in nature and it may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time; 

(b) the grant of the Award is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive
future grants of performance restricted stock units, or benefits in lieu of performance restricted stock units, even if performance restricted stock units have been granted repeatedly in the past; 

(c) all decisions with respect to future grants of performance restricted stock units, if any, will be at the sole
discretion of the Company;

with the Employer and shall not interfere with the ability of the Employer to terminate your employment relationship; 
 (e) you are voluntarily participating in the Plan;

and the Shares subject to the Award are an extraordinary item that does not constitute compensation of any kind for services of any kind rendered to the Company or the Employer, and which is outside the scope of your employment contract, if any;

benefits or similar payments and in no event should be considered as compensation for, or relating in any way to, past services for the Company, the Employer or any Related Corporation; 

(i) the grant of the Award and your participation in the Plan will not be interpreted to form an employment contract or
relationship with the Company or any Related Corporation; 
 (j) the future value of the underlying Shares is
unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty; 
 (k) no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall
arise from forfeiture of the Award resulting from termination of your employment by the Company or the Employer (for any reason ) and, in consideration of the grant of the Award to which you are otherwise not entitled, you irrevocably agree never to
institute any claim against the Company or the Employer, waive the ability, if any, to bring any such claim and release the Company and the Employer from any such claim; if, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is allowed by a court of
competent jurisdiction, then, by participating in the Plan, you will be deemed irrevocably to have agreed not to pursue such claim and agree to execute any and all documents necessary to request dismissal or withdrawal of such claims; 

(l) in the event of termination of your employment, your right to vest in the Award, if any, will terminate effective as
of the date that you are no longer actively employed; the Company’s Chief Executive Officer shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when you are no longer actively employed for purposes of the Award; and 

(m) the Award and the benefits under the Plan, if any, will not necessarily transfer to another company in the case of a
