WHEREAS, the Company has adopted the PowerSecure International, Inc. 2008 Stock Incentive Plan
(as amended and/or restated from time to time, the “Plan”); and

WHEREAS, pursuant to the provisions of the Plan, the Board of Directors of the Company, acting

Agreement

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, the parties hereto, intending to be legally
bound hereby, agree as follows:

1. Grant of Option. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the
Plan, this Agreement and the attached Notice of Stock Option Grant, all of which are incorporated
herein by this reference the Company grants to the Optionee the option (the “Option”) to purchase
the number of shares of Common Stock set forth on the attached Notice of Stock Option Grant (the
“Option Shares”) at the purchase price set forth on the attached Notice of Stock Option Grant (the
“Exercise Price”), which Exercise Price the Board of Directors has determined to be equal to or
greater than the fair market value of the Common Stock on the Grant Date. Unless otherwise defined
herein, all terms defined in the Plan and used in this Agreement shall have the same respective
meanings in this Agreement. The Option is not intended to qualify as an incentive stock
option under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

2. Vesting of Option. The Option shall vest and become exercisable in accordance with
the vesting schedule set forth in the attached Notice of Stock Option Grant (the “Vesting
Schedule”).

 

 

 

3. Exercise of Option. To the extent the Option has vested and become exercisable in
accordance with the Vesting Schedule, the Option may be exercised by the Optionee (or by any other
person permitted by Section 8 hereof to exercise the Option) in accordance with the following
provisions:

(a) Methods of Exercise. The Option may be exercised, in whole or in part, by giving
written notice of exercise to the Company at its principal executive offices stating the number of
Option Shares to be purchased upon such exercise, accompanied by payment in full of the Exercise
Price for the Option Shares to be purchased. Payment of the Exercise Price shall be made by any of
the following methods, or a combination thereof, at the election of the Optionee:

	 	(i)	 	Cash;

	 
	 	(ii)	 	Check, bank draft or money
order made payable to the Company;

	 
	 	(iii)	 	Delivery of shares of Common
Stock already owned by the Optionee, surrendered in
proper form for transfer and valued at their Fair
Market Value (as defined in the Plan) on the date of
delivery;

	 
	 	(iv)	 	Irrevocable instructions to a
securities broker or dealer acceptable to the Company
to sell the Option Shares and deliver all or part of
the sales proceeds to the Company; or

	 
	 	(v)	 	By reducing the number of
Option Shares that the Company delivers to the Optionee
upon exercise of the Option by an amount of Option
Shares equal to (1) the aggregate Exercise Price of the
Option, (2) divided by the Fair Market Value of the
Option Shares on the date of exercise.

(b) Delivery of Certificates. After payment in full for the Option Shares purchased
pursuant to the exercise of the Option has been received, the Company shall deliver to the Optionee
(or his designee) properly executed certificates representing such Option Shares as promptly
thereafter as is reasonably practicable.

(c) Tax Withholding. In the event that the Company determines that it is required to
withhold any tax as a result of the exercise of the Option, the Optionee, as a condition to the
exercise of this option, shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Company to enable it to
satisfy all withholding requirements. The Optionee shall also make arrangements satisfactory to
the Company to enable it to satisfy any withholding requirements that may arise in connection with
the vesting or disposition of Option Shares purchased by exercising this option. Such arrangements
to satisfy tax withholding requirements may, among other methods, include the delivery of shares of
Common Stock already owned by the Optionee, surrendered in proper form for transfer, or the
reduction in the number of Option Shares deliverable by the Company upon exercise of the Option,
valued at their Fair Market Value on the date of delivery (for shares already owned by the
Optionee) or on the date of exercise (upon reduction in the number of Option Shares to be delivered
to the Optionee).

4. Expiration of the Option.

(a) Expiration Date. The Option shall expire upon the “Expiration Date” set forth in
the attached Notice of Stock Option Grant (the “Expiration Date”); provided, however, that if the
Optionee ceases to be an employee of the Company or of any Subsidiary (as defined in the Plan) of
the Company prior to the Expiration Date, then the Optionee’s right to exercise the Option, to the
extent it is otherwise then exercisable pursuant to Section 2 hereof, shall be limited as provided
in this Section 4.

(b) Death. In the event of the death of the Optionee, the Option may continue to be
exercised, to the extent the Option is otherwise exercisable on the date of the Optionee’s death
(and without any further vesting), by the Optionee’s estate, personal representative or
beneficiary, until the earlier of the Expiration Date or one year after the date of death, on which
date the Option shall expire.

(c) Termination of Service as a Director.

(i) Termination other than Upon Death or for Cause. In the event the Optionee ceases
to serve as a member of the Board for any reason, other than dismissal for “cause” or upon death,

vesting), until the earlier of the Expiration Date or the date after termination that is the number
of years equal to the number of full or partial years the Optionee served as a member of the Board,
on which date the Option shall expire.

to this Section 4, the Optionee shall not be deemed to have ceased to serve as a member of the
Board and the Optionee’s continued employment by the Company, or a Subsidiary of the Company, shall
be deemed to be continued service as a member of the Board.

(iii) Termination for “Cause”. The Option shall immediately expire on the date the
Optionee’s services as a member of the Board terminate, if the Optionee is dismissed from the Board
for “cause”. For purpose of this Section 4, “cause” shall mean conduct involving one or more of
the following: (A) the substantial and continuing failure of the Optionee, after notice thereof,
to render services to the Company in accordance with the terms or requirements of his duties; (B)
disloyalty, gross negligence, willful misconduct, dishonesty or breach of fiduciary duty to the
Company; (C) the commission of an act of embezzlement or fraud; (D) deliberate disregard of the

without any further vesting), until the earlier of the Expiration Date or one year after the date
of termination, on which date the Option shall expire. For purposes hereof, a “permanent

advisor of the Company or any Subsidiary (as defined in the Plan) of the Company.

of the Company in order to become an employee of any subsidiary of the Company, or the Optionee
ceases to be an employee of any such subsidiary in order to become an employee of the Company or of
another subsidiary of the Company, then the Optionee shall be deemed to continue as an employee of
the Company for all purposes of this Agreement.

liquidation, dissolution, exchange of shares of Common Stock or other securities of the
Company, or other similar corporate transaction or event affects the shares of Common Stock
such that an adjustment is necessary or determined by the Board to be appropriate in order to
prevent dilution or enlargement of the Optionee’s rights under this Agreement, then the Board shall
proportionately adjust any or all of (i) the number and kind of Option Shares which may thereafter
be issued in connection with the Option; (ii) the number and kind of Option Shares issued or
issuable with respect to the outstanding Option; and (iii) the Purchase Price.

(b) The grant of this Option shall not affect in any way the right of the Company to adjust,
reclassify, reorganize, or otherwise change its capital or business structure or to merge,
consolidate, dissolve, liquidate or sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets.

7. Legality of Initial Issuance.

or other securities market on which the Common Stock is listed or traded has been satisfied; and

follows:

(b) Pursuant to a Qualified Domestic Relations Order as defined under the Code or Title I of
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974; or

(c) Without consideration (other than in exchange for an interest in one of the following
partnerships, limited liability companies or other entities), to (i) the Optionee’s spouse,
children or grandchildren (whether by blood, adoption or step) (“Family Members”), (ii) any trust
in which Optionee and such Optionee’s Family Members have more than 50% of the beneficial
interests, or (iii) any partnership, limited liability company or other entity in which the

deemed to refer to the transferee, (y) in the event of a transferee’s death, the Option may be
exercised by the personal representative of the transferee’s estate or, if no personal
representative has been appointed, by the successor or successors in interest determined under the
transferee’s will or under applicable laws of descent and distribution, and (z) the events of

9. Plan Controls. This Option is granted pursuant to, and shall be interpreted in a
manner consistent with, the Plan. All terms and conditions of the Plan applicable to the Option
which are not set forth in this Agreement shall be deemed to be incorporated herein by this
reference. Optionee acknowledges he has received a copy of the Plan prior to executing this
Agreement. In the event of a conflict between the terms of the Plan and the terms of this
Agreement, the terms of the Plan shall govern, be control and supersede and conflicting terms of
this Agreement.

10. No Rights As Stockholder Until Exercise. The Optionee shall have no rights as a
stockholder with respect to the Option Shares unless and until such time as the Optionee has
exercised the Option by delivering a properly completed and executed notice of exercise and has
paid in full the Purchase Price for the number of Option Shares for which the Option is to be so
exercised in accordance with Section 3 hereof and certificates representing the Option Shares have
been issued to the Optionee with respect thereto. Except as expressly provided in the Plan and
Section 6 hereof with respect to certain changes in the capitalization of the Company, no
adjustment in the number of Option Shares or the Purchase Price shall be made for dividends or
similar rights for which the record date is prior to such date of exercise.

confer, and the grant of the Option shall not be construed as conferring, upon the Optionee, any
right to continue in the employ or service of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company or
interfering in any way with the right of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company to (a)
terminate the Optionee’s employment or service at any time, or (b) increase or decrease the
compensation of the Optionee from the rate in existence at the time of granting the Option.

12. Compliance with Rule 16b-3. If Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or any successor provision applies to the Optionee or to the
grant of the Option pursuant to the Plan to the Optionee, then the grant of the Option hereunder is
intended to be in compliance with one or more of the exemptions provided in Rule 16b-3.

with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to provisions governing conflicts of laws.

(c) Entire Agreement. This Agreement (along with the Plan and the Notice of Stock

regarding the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior written or oral agreements,
understandings and communications between the parties related to the subject matter of this
Agreement.

(d) Amendment. This Agreement may be modified, amended or rescinded only by a written
Agreement executed by all parties hereto.

(e) Severability. If any provision of the Plan, this Agreement or the Option is or
becomes or is deemed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, or would
disqualify the Plan, this Agreement or the Option under any law, this Agreement and the Option
shall be deemed amended to conform to applicable laws or, if it cannot be construed or deemed
without, in the determination of the Board, materially altering the intent of the Agreement and the
Option, it shall be deleted and the remainder of the Agreement shall remain in full force and
effect. If any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement or the Option conflict with the
requirements of applicable law or applicable rules and regulations thereunder, including the
requirements of Rule 16b-3, then such terms or provisions shall be deemed inoperative to the extent
necessary to avoid the conflict with applicable law, or applicable rules and regulations, without
invalidating new remaining provisions hereof.

(f) Successor and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

(g) Specific Performance and Remedies. The rights of the parties under this
Agreement are unique and, accordingly, the parties shall have the right to, in addition to any
other remedies as may be available to any of them at law or in equity, to enforce their rights
hereunder by actions for specific performance in addition to any other legal or equitable remedies
that they might have to the extent permitted by law. All rights and remedies of the Company and of
the Optionee enumerated in this Agreement shall be accumulative, and, except as expressly provided
otherwise in this Agreement, none shall exclude any other rights or remedies allowed by law or in
equity, and each of said rights or remedies may be exercised and enforced concurrently.

(h) Waivers. Any of the provisions of this Agreement may be waived by an instrument in
writing with the consent of the party or parties whose rights are being waived. Any waiver of a
breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any
subsequent breach of that provision or of any other provision hereof.

(i) Captions. The captions contained in this Agreement are included for convenience of
reference only and do not define, limit, explain or modify this Agreement or its interpretation,
construction or meaning and are in no way to be construed as a part of this Agreement.
