 Exhibit 4.4 

NIMBLE STORAGE, INC. 

2013 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN 

(Amended and Restated May 23, 2014) 

1. PURPOSE. The purpose of this Plan is to provide incentives to attract, retain and motivate eligible persons whose present and potential
contributions are important to the success of the Company, and any Parents and Subsidiaries that exist now or in the future, by offering them an opportunity to participate in the Company’s future performance through the grant of Awards.
Capitalized terms not defined elsewhere in the text are defined in Section 28. 
 2. SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN.  

2.1. Number of Shares Available. Subject to Sections 2.6 and 21 and any other applicable provisions hereof, the total number of
Shares reserved and available for grant and issuance pursuant to this Plan as of the date of adoption of the Plan by the Board, is 9,068,844 plus (i) any reserved shares not issued or subject to outstanding grants under the Company’s 2008
Equity Incentive Plan (the “Prior Plan”) on the Effective Date (as defined below), (ii) shares that are subject to stock options or other awards granted under the Prior Plan that cease to be subject to such stock options or
other awards by forfeiture or otherwise after the Effective Date, (iii) shares issued under the Prior Plan before or after the Effective Date pursuant to the exercise of stock options that are, after the Effective Date, forfeited,
(iv) shares issued under the Prior Plan that are repurchased by the Company at the original issue price and (v) shares that are subject to stock options or other awards under the Prior Plan that are used to pay the exercise price of an
option or withheld to satisfy the tax withholding obligations related to any award. 
 2.2. Lapsed, Returned Awards. Shares
subject to Awards, and Shares issued under the Plan under any Award, will again be available for grant and issuance in connection with subsequent Awards under this Plan to the extent such Shares: (a) are subject to issuance upon exercise of an
Option or SAR granted under this Plan but which cease to be subject to the Option or SAR for any reason other than exercise of the Option or SAR; (b) are subject to Awards granted under this Plan that are forfeited or are repurchased by the
Company at the original issue price; (c) are subject to Awards granted under this Plan that otherwise terminate without such Shares being issued; or (d) are surrendered pursuant to an Exchange Program. To the extent an Award under the Plan
is paid out in cash rather than Shares, such cash payment will not result in reducing the number of Shares available for issuance under the Plan. Shares used to pay the exercise price of an Award or withheld to satisfy the tax withholding
obligations related to an Award will become available for future grant or sale under the Plan. For the avoidance of doubt, Shares that otherwise become available for grant and issuance because of the provisions of this Section 2.2 shall not
include Shares subject to Awards that initially became available because of the substitution clause in Section 21.2 hereof. 
 2.3.
Minimum Share Reserve. At all times the Company shall reserve and keep available a sufficient number of Shares as shall be required to satisfy the requirements of all outstanding Awards granted under this Plan. 

2.4. Automatic Share Reserve Increase. The number of Shares available for grant and issuance under the Plan shall be
automatically increased February 1 of each of the calendar years 2014 through 2022, by the lesser of (i) five percent (5%) of the number of Shares issued and outstanding on each January 31 immediately prior to the date of
increase or (ii) such number of Shares determined by the Board. 

 2.5. Limitations. No more than thirty million (30,000,000) Shares shall be
issued pursuant to the exercise of ISOs. 
 2.6. Adjustment of Shares. If the number of outstanding Shares is changed by a
stock dividend, recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, subdivision, combination, reclassification or similar change in the capital structure of the Company, without consideration, then (a) the number of Shares reserved for issuance
and future grant under the Plan set forth in Section 2.1, including shares reserved under sub-clauses (i)-(v) of Section 2.1, (b) the Exercise Prices of and number of Shares subject to outstanding Options and SARs, (c) the
number of Shares subject to other outstanding Awards, (d) the maximum number of shares that may be issued as ISOs set forth in Section 2.5, and (e) the maximum number of Shares that may be issued to an individual or to a new Employee
in any one calendar year set forth in Section 3 or to a Non-Employee Director in Section 12 shall be proportionately adjusted, subject to any required action by the Board or the stockholders of the Company and in compliance with applicable
securities laws; provided that fractions of a Share will not be issued. 
 3. ELIGIBILITY. ISOs may be granted only to eligible Employees. All
other Awards may be granted to Employees, Consultants, Directors and Non-Employee Directors; provided such Consultants, Directors and Non-Employee Directors render bona fide services not in connection with the offer and sale of securities in
a capital-raising transaction. No Participant will be eligible to be granted more than Three Million (3,000,000) Shares in any calendar year under this Plan pursuant to the grant of Awards except that new Employees (including new Employees who
are also officers and directors of the Company or any Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate) are eligible to be granted up to a maximum of Six Million (6,000,000) Shares in the calendar year in which they commence their employment. 

4. ADMINISTRATION.  

4.1. Committee Composition; Authority. This Plan will be administered by the Committee or by the Board acting as the Committee.
Subject to the general purposes, terms and conditions of this Plan, and to the direction of the Board, the Committee will have full power to implement and carry out this Plan, except, however, the Board shall establish the terms for the grant of an
Award to Non-Employee Directors. The Committee will have the authority to: 
 (a) construe and interpret this Plan, any Award
Agreement and any other agreement or document executed pursuant to this Plan; 
 (b) prescribe, amend and rescind rules and
regulations relating to this Plan or any Award; 
 (c) select persons to receive Awards; 

(d) determine the form and terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, of any Award granted hereunder. Such
terms and conditions include, but are not limited to, the exercise price, the time or times when Awards may vest and be exercised (which may be based on performance criteria) or settled, any vesting acceleration or waiver of forfeiture restrictions,
the method to satisfy tax withholding obligations or any other tax liability legally due, and any restriction or limitation regarding any Award or the Shares relating thereto, based in each case on such factors as the Committee will determine; 

(e) determine the number of Shares or other consideration subject to Awards; 

  
 2 

 (f) determine the Fair Market Value and interpret the applicable provisions of this Plan
and the definition of Fair Market Value in connection with circumstances that impact the Fair Market Value, if necessary; 
 (g)
determine whether Awards will be granted singly, in combination with, in tandem with, in replacement of, or as alternatives to, other Awards under this Plan or any other incentive or compensation plan of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary
of the Company; 
 (h) grant waivers of Plan or Award conditions; 

(i) determine the vesting, exercisability and payment of Awards; 

(j) correct any defect, supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in this Plan, any Award or any Award Agreement; 

(k) determine whether an Award has been earned; 

(l) determine the terms and conditions of any, and to institute any Exchange Program; 

(m) reduce or waive any criteria with respect to Performance Factors; 

(n) adjust Performance Factors to take into account changes in law and accounting or tax rules as the Committee deems necessary or
appropriate to reflect the impact of extraordinary or unusual items, events or circumstances to avoid windfalls or hardships provided that such adjustments are consistent with the regulations promulgated under Section 162(m) of the Code with
respect to persons whose compensation is subject to Section 162(m) of the Code; 
 (o) adopt terms and conditions, rules and/or
procedures (including the adoption of any subplan under this Plan) relating to the operation and administration of the Plan to accommodate requirements of local law and procedures outside of the United States; 

(p) make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of this Plan; and 

(q) delegate any of the foregoing to a subcommittee consisting of one or more executive officers pursuant to a specific delegation as
permitted by applicable law, including Section 157(c) of the Delaware General Corporation Law. 
 4.2. Committee
Interpretation and Discretion. Any determination made by the Committee with respect to any Award shall be made in its sole discretion at the time of grant of the Award or, unless in contravention of any express term of the Plan or Award, at any
later time, and such determination shall be final and binding on the Company and all persons having an interest in any Award under the Plan. Any dispute regarding the interpretation of the Plan or any Award Agreement shall be submitted by the
Participant or Company to the Committee for review. The resolution of such a dispute by the Committee shall be final and binding on the Company and the Participant. The Committee may delegate to one or more executive officers the authority to review
and resolve disputes with respect to Awards held by Participants who are not Insiders, and such resolution shall be final and binding on the Company and the Participant. 

4.3. Section 162(m) of the Code and Section 16 of the Exchange Act. When necessary or desirable for an Award to
qualify as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code the Committee shall include at least two persons who are “outside directors” (as defined under Section 162(m) of the Code) and at least two
(or a majority if more than two then serve on the Committee) such “outside directors” shall approve the grant of such Award and timely determine (as 

  
 3 

 
applicable) the Performance Period and any Performance Factors upon which vesting or settlement of any portion of such Award is to be subject. When required by Section 162(m) of the Code,
prior to settlement of any such Award at least two (or a majority if more than two then serve on the Committee) such “outside directors” then serving on the Committee shall determine and certify in writing the extent to which such
Performance Factors have been timely achieved and the extent to which the Shares subject to such Award have thereby been earned. Awards granted to Participants who are subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act must be approved by two or more
“non-employee directors” (as defined in the regulations promulgated under Section 16 of the Exchange Act). With respect to Participants whose compensation is subject to Section 162(m) of the Code, and provided that such
adjustments are consistent with the regulations promulgated under Section 162(m) of the Code, the Committee may adjust the performance goals to account for changes in law and accounting and to make such adjustments as the Committee deems
necessary or appropriate to reflect the impact of extraordinary or unusual items, events or circumstances to avoid windfalls or hardships, including without limitation (i) restructurings, discontinued operations, extraordinary items, and other
unusual or non-recurring charges, (ii) an event either not directly related to the operations of the Company or not within the reasonable control of the Company’s management, or (iii) a change in accounting standards required by
generally accepted accounting principles. 
 4.4. Documentation. The Award Agreement for a given Award, the Plan and any other
documents may be delivered to, and accepted by, a Participant or any other person in any manner (including electronic distribution or posting) that meets applicable legal requirements. 

4.5. Foreign Award Recipients. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, in order to comply with the laws and
practices in other countries in which the Company and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates operate or have employees or other individuals eligible for Awards, the Committee, in its sole discretion, shall have the power and authority to:
(i) determine which Subsidiaries and Affiliates shall be covered by the Plan; (ii) determine which individuals outside the United States are eligible to participate in the Plan which may include individuals who provide services to the
Company, Subsidiary or Affiliate under an agreement with a foreign nation or agency; (iii) modify the terms and conditions of any Award granted to individuals outside the United States or foreign nationals to comply with applicable foreign
laws, policies, customs and practices; (iv) establish subplans and modify exercise procedures and other terms and procedures, to the extent the Committee determines such actions to be necessary or advisable (and such subplans and/or
modifications shall be attached to this Plan as appendices); provided, however, that no such subplans and/or modifications shall increase the share limitations contained in Section 2.1 hereof; and (v) take any action, before or after an
Award is made, that the Committee determines to be necessary or advisable to obtain approval or comply with any local governmental regulatory exemptions or approvals. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may not take any actions hereunder,
and no Awards shall be granted, that would violate the Exchange Act or any other applicable United States securities law, or any other applicable law. 

5. OPTIONS. An Option is the right but not the obligation to purchase a Share, subject to certain conditions, if applicable. The Committee may
grant Options to eligible Employees, Consultants and Directors and will determine whether such Options will be Incentive Stock Options within the meaning of the Code (“ISOs”) or Nonqualified Stock Options (“NSOs”),
the number of Shares subject to the Option, the Exercise Price of the Option, the period during which the Option may vest and be exercised, and all other terms and conditions of the Option, subject to the following: 

5.1. Option Grant. Each Option granted under this Plan will identify the Option as an ISO or an NSO. An Option may be, but need
not be, awarded upon satisfaction of such Performance Factors during any Performance Period as are set out in advance in the Participant’s individual Award Agreement. If the Option is being earned upon the satisfaction of Performance Factors,
then the Committee will: (x) determine the nature, length and starting date of any Performance Period for each Option; and (y) select from among the Performance Factors to be used to measure the performance, if any. Performance Periods may
overlap and Participants may participate simultaneously with respect to Options that are subject to different performance goals and other criteria. 

  
 4 

 5.2. Date of Grant. The date of grant of an Option will be the date on which the
Committee makes the determination to grant such Option, or a specified future date. The Award Agreement will be delivered to the Participant within a reasonable time after the granting of the Option. 

5.3. Exercise Period. Options may be vested and exercisable within the times or upon the conditions as set forth in the Award
Agreement governing such Option; provided, however, that no Option will be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date the Option is granted; and provided further that no ISO granted to a person who, at
the time the ISO is granted, directly or by attribution owns more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or of any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company (“Ten Percent
Stockholder”) will be exercisable after the expiration of five (5) years from the date the ISO is granted. The Committee also may provide for Options to become exercisable at one time or from time to time, periodically or otherwise, in
such number of Shares or percentage of Shares as the Committee determines. 
 5.4. Exercise Price. The Exercise Price of an
Option will be determined by the Committee when the Option is granted; provided that: (i) the Exercise Price of an Option will be not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of grant and
(ii) the Exercise Price of any ISO granted to a Ten Percent Stockholder will not be less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of grant. Payment for the Shares purchased may be made in
accordance with Section 11 and the Award Agreement and in accordance with any procedures established by the Company. 
 5.5.
Method of Exercise. Any Option granted hereunder will be vested and exercisable according to the terms of the Plan and at such times and under such conditions as determined by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement. An Option
may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share. An Option will be deemed exercised when the Company receives: (i) notice of exercise (in such form as the Committee may specify from time to time) from the person entitled to exercise the Option,
and (ii) full payment for the Shares with respect to which the Option is exercised (together with applicable withholding taxes). Full payment may consist of any consideration and method of payment authorized by the Committee and permitted by
the Award Agreement and the Plan. Shares issued upon exercise of an Option will be issued in the name of the Participant. Until the Shares are issued (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer
agent of the Company), no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a stockholder will exist with respect to the Shares, notwithstanding the exercise of the Option. The Company will issue (or cause to be issued) such Shares promptly
after the Option is exercised. No adjustment will be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date the Shares are issued, except as provided in Section 2.6 of the Plan. Exercising an Option in any manner will
decrease the number of Shares thereafter available, both for purposes of the Plan and for sale under the Option, by the number of Shares as to which the Option is exercised. 

(a) Termination of Service. If the Participant’s Service terminates for any reason except for Cause or the
Participant’s death or Disability, then the Participant may exercise such Participant’s Options only to the extent that such Options would have been exercisable by the Participant on the date Participant’s Service terminates no later
than three (3) months after the date Participant’s Service terminates (or such shorter or longer time period as may be determined by the Committee, with any exercise beyond three (3) months after the date Participant’s Service
terminates deemed to be the exercise of an NSO), but in any event no later than the expiration date of the Options. 
 (b)
Death. If the Participant’s Service terminates because of the Participant’s death (or the Participant dies within three (3) months after Participant’s Service terminates other than for Cause or because of the
Participant’s Disability), then the Participant’s Options may be exercised only to the 

  
 5 

 
extent that such Options would have been exercisable by the Participant on the date Participant’s Service terminates and must be exercised by the Participant’s legal representative, or
authorized assignee, no later than eighteen (18) months after the date Participant’s Service terminates (or such shorter or longer time period as may be determined by the Committee), but in any event no later than the expiration date of
the Options. 
 (c) Disability. If the Participant’s Service terminates because of the Participant’s Disability,
then the Participant’s Options may be exercised only to the extent that such Options would have been exercisable by the Participant on the date Participant’s Service terminates and must be exercised by the Participant (or the
Participant’s legal representative or authorized assignee) no later than twelve (12) months after the date Participant’s Service terminates (with any exercise beyond (a) three (3) months after the date Participant’s
Service terminates when the termination of Service is for a Disability that is not a “permanent and total disability” as defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code, or (b) twelve (12) months after the date Participant’s
Service terminates when the termination of Service is for a Disability that is a “permanent and total disability” as defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code, deemed to be exercise of an NSO), but in any event no later than the
expiration date of the Options. 
 (d) Cause. If the Participant is terminated for Cause, then Participant’s Options
shall expire on such Participant’s date of termination of Service, or at such later time and on such conditions as are determined by the Committee, but in any no event later than the expiration date of the Options. Unless otherwise provided in
the Award Agreement, Cause shall have the meaning set forth in the Plan. 
 5.6. Limitations on Exercise. The Committee may
specify a minimum number of Shares that may be purchased on any exercise of an Option, provided that such minimum number will not prevent any Participant from exercising the Option for the full number of Shares for which it is then exercisable. 

5.7. Limitations on ISOs. With respect to Awards granted as ISOs, to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of the
Shares with respect to which such ISOs are exercisable for the first time by the Participant during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company and any Parent or Subsidiary) exceeds one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000), such Options will be
treated as NSOs. For purposes of this Section 5.7, ISOs will be taken into account in the order in which they were granted. The Fair Market Value of the Shares will be determined as of the time the Option with respect to such Shares is granted.
In the event that the Code or the regulations promulgated thereunder are amended after the Effective Date to provide for a different limit on the Fair Market Value of Shares permitted to be subject to ISOs, such different limit will be automatically
incorporated herein and will apply to any Options granted after the effective date of such amendment. 
 5.8. Modification,
Extension or Renewal. The Committee may modify, extend or renew outstanding Options and authorize the grant of new Options in substitution therefor, provided that any such action may not, without the written consent of a Participant, impair any
of such Participant’s rights under any Option previously granted. Any outstanding ISO that is modified, extended, renewed or otherwise altered will be treated in accordance with Section 424(h) of the Code. Subject to Section 18 of
this Plan, by written notice to affected Participants, the Committee may reduce the Exercise Price of outstanding Options without the consent of such Participants; provided, however, that the Exercise Price may not be reduced below the
Fair Market Value on the date the action is taken to reduce the Exercise Price. 
 5.9. No Disqualification. Notwithstanding
any other provision in this Plan, no term of this Plan relating to ISOs will be interpreted, amended or altered, nor will any discretion or authority granted under this Plan be exercised, so as to disqualify this Plan under Section 422 of the
Code or, without the consent of the Participant affected, to disqualify any ISO under Section 422 of the Code. 
 6. RESTRICTED STOCK
AWARDS. A Restricted Stock Award is an offer by the Company to sell to an eligible Employee, Consultant, or Director Shares that are subject to restrictions (“Restricted

  
 6 

 
Stock”). The Committee will determine to whom an offer will be made, the number of Shares the Participant may purchase, the Purchase Price, the restrictions under which the Shares
will be subject and all other terms and conditions of the Restricted Stock Award, subject to the Plan. 
 6.1. Restricted Stock
Purchase Agreement. All purchases under a Restricted Stock Award will be evidenced by an Award Agreement. Except as may otherwise be provided in an Award Agreement, a Participant accepts a Restricted Stock Award by signing and delivering to the
Company an Award Agreement with full payment of the Purchase Price, within thirty (30) days from the date the Award Agreement was delivered to the Participant. If the Participant does not accept such Award within thirty (30) days, then the
offer of such Restricted Stock Award will terminate, unless the Committee determines otherwise. 
 6.2. Purchase Price. The
Purchase Price for a Restricted Stock Award will be determined by the Committee and may be less than Fair Market Value on the date the Restricted Stock Award is granted. Payment of the Purchase Price must be made in accordance with Section 11
of the Plan, and the Award Agreement and in accordance with any procedures established by the Company. 
 6.3. Terms of Restricted
Stock Awards. Restricted Stock Awards will be subject to such restrictions as the Committee may impose or are required by law. These restrictions may be based on completion of a specified number of years of service with the Company or upon
completion of Performance Factors, if any, during any Performance Period as set out in advance in the Participant’s Award Agreement. Prior to the grant of a Restricted Stock Award, the Committee shall: (a) determine the nature, length and
starting date of any Performance Period for the Restricted Stock Award; (b) select from among the Performance Factors to be used to measure performance goals, if any; and (c) determine the number of Shares that may be awarded to the
Participant. Performance Periods may overlap and a Participant may participate simultaneously with respect to Restricted Stock Awards that are subject to different Performance Periods and having different performance goals and other criteria. 

6.4. Termination of Service. Except as may be set forth in the Participant’s Award Agreement, vesting ceases on such date
Participant’s Service terminates (unless determined otherwise by the Committee). 
 7. STOCK BONUS AWARDS. A Stock Bonus Award is an
award to an eligible Employee, Consultant, or Director of Shares for Services to be rendered or for past Services already rendered to the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary. All Stock Bonus Awards shall be made pursuant to an Award Agreement. No
payment from the Participant will be required for Shares awarded pursuant to a Stock Bonus Award. 
 7.1. Terms of Stock Bonus
Awards. The Committee will determine the number of Shares to be awarded to the Participant under a Stock Bonus Award and any restrictions thereon. These restrictions may be based upon completion of a specified number of years of service with the
Company or upon satisfaction of performance goals based on Performance Factors during any Performance Period as set out in advance in the Participant’s Stock Bonus Agreement. Prior to the grant of any Stock Bonus Award the Committee shall:
(a) determine the nature, length and starting date of any Performance Period for the Stock Bonus Award; (b) select from among the Performance Factors to be used to measure performance goals; and (c) determine the number of Shares that
may be awarded to the Participant. Performance Periods may overlap and a Participant may participate simultaneously with respect to Stock Bonus Awards that are subject to different Performance Periods and different performance goals and other
criteria. 
 7.2. Form of Payment to Participant. Payment may be made in the form of cash, whole Shares, or a combination
thereof, based on the Fair Market Value of the Shares earned under a Stock Bonus Award on the date of payment, as determined in the sole discretion of the Committee. 

  
 7 

 7.3. Termination of Service. Except as may be set forth in the Participant’s
Award Agreement, vesting ceases on such date Participant’s Service terminates (unless determined otherwise by the Committee). 
 8. STOCK
APPRECIATION RIGHTS. A Stock Appreciation Right (“SAR”) is an award to an eligible Employee, Consultant, or Director that may be settled in cash, or Shares (which may consist of Restricted Stock), having a value equal
to (a) the difference between the Fair Market Value on the date of exercise over the Exercise Price multiplied by (b) the number of Shares with respect to which the SAR is being settled (subject to any maximum number of Shares that may be
issuable as specified in an Award Agreement). All SARs shall be made pursuant to an Award Agreement. 
 8.1. Terms of SARs.
The Committee will determine the terms of each SAR including, without limitation: (a) the number of Shares subject to the SAR; (b) the Exercise Price and the time or times during which the SAR may be settled; (c) the consideration to
be distributed on settlement of the SAR; and (d) the effect of the Participant’s termination of Service on each SAR. The Exercise Price of the SAR will be determined by the Committee when the SAR is granted, and may not be less than Fair
Market Value. A SAR may be awarded upon satisfaction of Performance Factors, if any, during any Performance Period as are set out in advance in the Participant’s individual Award Agreement. If the SAR is being earned upon the satisfaction of
Performance Factors, then the Committee will: (x) determine the nature, length and starting date of any Performance Period for each SAR; and (y) select from among the Performance Factors to be used to measure the performance, if any.
Performance Periods may overlap and Participants may participate simultaneously with respect to SARs that are subject to different Performance Factors and other criteria. 

8.2. Exercise Period and Expiration Date. A SAR will be exercisable within the times or upon the occurrence of events determined
by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement governing such SAR. The SAR Agreement shall set forth the expiration date; provided that no SAR will be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date the SAR is granted.
The Committee may also provide for SARs to become exercisable at one time or from time to time, periodically or otherwise (including, without limitation, upon the attainment during a Performance Period of performance goals based on Performance
Factors), in such number of Shares or percentage of the Shares subject to the SAR as the Committee determines. Except as may be set forth in the Participant’s Award Agreement, vesting ceases on the date Participant’s Service terminates
(unless determined otherwise by the Committee). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the rules of Section 5.6 also will apply to SARs. 

8.3. Form of Settlement. Upon exercise of a SAR, a Participant will be entitled to receive payment from the Company in an amount
determined by multiplying (i) the difference between the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of exercise over the Exercise Price; times (ii) the number of Shares with respect to which the SAR is exercised. At the discretion of the
Committee, the payment from the Company for the SAR exercise may be in cash, in Shares of equivalent value, or in some combination thereof. The portion of a SAR being settled may be paid currently or on a deferred basis with such interest or
dividend equivalent, if any, as the Committee determines, provided that the terms of the SAR and any deferral satisfy the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. 

8.4. Termination of Service. Except as may be set forth in the Participant’s Award Agreement, vesting ceases on such date
Participant’s Service terminates (unless determined otherwise by the Committee). 
 9. RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS. A Restricted Stock Unit
(“RSU”) is an award to an eligible Employee, Consultant, or Director covering a number of Shares that may be settled in cash, or by issuance of those Shares (which may consist of Restricted Stock). All RSUs shall be made pursuant to
an Award Agreement. 

  
 8 

 9.1. Terms of RSUs. The Committee will determine the terms of an RSU including,
without limitation: (a) the number of Shares subject to the RSU; (b) the time or times during which the RSU may be settled; (c) the consideration to be distributed on settlement; and (d) the effect of the Participant’s
termination of Service on each RSU. An RSU may be awarded upon satisfaction of such performance goals based on Performance Factors during any Performance Period as are set out in advance in the Participant’s Award Agreement. If the RSU is being
earned upon satisfaction of Performance Factors, then the Committee will: (x) determine the nature, length and starting date of any Performance Period for the RSU; (y) select from among the Performance Factors to be used to measure the
performance, if any; and (z) determine the number of Shares deemed subject to the RSU. Performance Periods may overlap and participants may participate simultaneously with respect to RSUs that are subject to different Performance Periods and
different performance goals and other criteria. 
 9.2. Form and Timing of Settlement. Payment of earned RSUs shall be made as
soon as practicable after the date(s) determined by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement. The Committee, in its sole discretion, may settle earned RSUs in cash, Shares, or a combination of both. The Committee may also permit a
Participant to defer payment under a RSU to a date or dates after the RSU is earned provided that the terms of the RSU and any deferral satisfy the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. 

9.3. Termination of Service. Except as may be set forth in the Participant’s Award Agreement, vesting ceases on such date
Participant’s Service terminates (unless determined otherwise by the Committee). 
 10. PERFORMANCE AWARDS. A Performance Award is an
award to an eligible Employee, Consultant, or Director of a cash bonus or an award of Performance Shares denominated in Shares that may be settled in cash, or by issuance of those Shares (which may consist of Restricted Stock). Grants of Performance
Awards shall be made pursuant to an Award Agreement. 
 10.1. Terms of Performance Shares. The Committee will determine, and
each Award Agreement shall set forth, the terms of each Performance Award including, without limitation: (a) the amount of any cash bonus, (b) the number of Shares deemed subject to an award of Performance Shares; (c) the Performance
Factors and Performance Period that shall determine the time and extent to which each award of Performance Shares shall be settled; (d) the consideration to be distributed on settlement, and (e) the effect of the Participant’s
termination of Service on each Performance Award. In establishing Performance Factors and the Performance Period the Committee will: (x) determine the nature, length and starting date of any Performance Period; (y) select from among the
Performance Factors to be used; and (z) determine the number of Shares deemed subject to the award of Performance Shares. Prior to settlement the Committee shall determine the extent to which Performance Awards have been earned. Performance
Periods may overlap and Participants may participate simultaneously with respect to Performance Awards that are subject to different Performance Periods and different performance goals and other criteria. No Participant will be eligible to receive
more than $3,000,000 in Performance Awards in any calendar year under this Plan. 
 10.2. Value, Earning and Timing of Performance
Shares. Each Performance Share will have an initial value equal to the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant. After the applicable Performance Period has ended, the holder of Performance Shares will be entitled to receive a payout of
the number of Performance Shares earned by the Participant over the Performance Period, to be determined as a function of the extent to which the corresponding Performance Factors or other vesting provisions have been achieved. The Committee, in its
sole discretion, may pay earned Performance Shares in the form of cash, in Shares (which have an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the value of the earned Performance Shares at the close of the applicable Performance Period) or in a combination
thereof. 

  
 9 

 10.3. Termination of Service. Except as may be set forth in the Participant’s
Award Agreement, vesting ceases on such date Participant’s Service terminates (unless determined otherwise by the Committee). 
 11. PAYMENT FOR

12. GRANTS TO NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS. Non-Employee Directors are eligible to receive any type of Award offered under this Plan except ISOs.
Awards pursuant to this Section 12 may be automatically made pursuant to policy adopted by the Board, or made from time to time as determined in the discretion of the Board. The aggregate number of Shares subject to Awards granted to a
Non-Employee Director pursuant to this Section 12 in any calendar year shall not exceed 1,000,000. 
 12.1. Eligibility.
Awards pursuant to this Section 12 shall be granted only to Non-Employee Directors. A Non-Employee Director who is elected or re-elected as a member of the Board will be eligible to receive an Award under this Section 12. 

12.2. Vesting, Exercisability and Settlement. Except as set forth in Section 21, Awards shall vest, become exercisable and

12.3. Election to receive Awards in Lieu of Cash. A Non-Employee Director may elect to receive his or her annual retainer
payments and/or meeting fees from the Company in the form of cash or Awards or a combination thereof, as determined by the Committee. Such Awards shall be issued under the Plan. An election under this Section 12.3 shall be filed with the
Company on the form prescribed by the Company. 
 13. WITHHOLDING TAXES.  

13.1. Withholding Generally. Whenever Shares are to be issued in satisfaction of Awards granted under this Plan or the applicable
tax event occurs, the Company may require the Participant to remit to the Company, or to the Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate employing the Participant, an amount sufficient to satisfy applicable U.S. federal, state, local and international
withholding tax requirements or any other tax or social insurance liability legally due from the Participant prior to the delivery of Shares pursuant to exercise or settlement of any Award. Whenever payments in satisfaction of Awards granted under
this Plan are to be made in cash, such payment will be net of an amount sufficient to satisfy applicable U.S. federal, state, local and international withholding tax and social insurance requirements or any other tax liability legally due from the
Participant. 

  
 10 

 13.2. Stock Withholding. The Committee, or its delegate(s), as permitted by
applicable law, in its sole discretion and pursuant to such procedures as it may specify from time to time and to limitations of local law, may require or permit a Participant to satisfy such tax withholding obligation or any other tax liability
legally due from the Participant, in whole or in part by (without limitation) (i) paying cash, (ii) electing to have the Company withhold otherwise deliverable cash or Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the minimum statutory amount
required to be withheld, (iii) delivering to the Company already-owned Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the minimum amount required to be withheld or (iv) withholding from the proceeds of the sale of otherwise deliverable Shares
acquired pursuant to an Award either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company. The Fair Market Value of the Shares to be withheld or delivered will be determined as of the date that the taxes are required to be
withheld. 
 14. TRANSFERABILITY. 

14.1. Transfer Generally. Unless determined otherwise by the Committee or pursuant to Section 14.2, an Award may not be
sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution. If the Committee makes an Award transferable, including, without limitation, by instrument to an inter
vivos or testamentary trust in which the Awards are to be passed to beneficiaries upon the death of the trustor (settlor) or by gift or by domestic relations order to a Permitted Transferee, such Award will contain such additional terms and
conditions as the Committee deems appropriate. All Awards shall be exercisable: (i) during the Participant’s lifetime only by (A) the Participant, or (B) the Participant’s guardian or legal representative; (ii) after
the Participant’s death, by the legal representative of the Participant’s heirs or legatees; and (iii) in the case of all awards except ISOs, by a Permitted Transferee. 

14.2. Award Transfer Program. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of the Plan, the Committee shall have all discretion and
authority to determine and implement the terms and conditions of any Award Transfer Program instituted pursuant to this Section 14.2 and shall have the authority to amend the terms of any Award participating, or otherwise eligible to
participate in, the Award Transfer Program, including (but not limited to) the authority to (i) amend (including to extend) the expiration date, post-termination exercise period and/or forfeiture conditions of any such Award, (ii) amend or
remove any provisions of the Award relating to the Award holder’s continued service to the Company or its Parent or any Subsidiary, (iii) amend the permissible payment methods with respect to the exercise or purchase of any such Award,
(iv) amend the adjustments to be implemented in the event of changes in the capitalization and other similar events with respect to such Award, and (v) make such other changes to the terms of such Award as the Committee deems necessary or
appropriate in its sole discretion. 
 15. PRIVILEGES OF STOCK OWNERSHIP; RESTRICTIONS ON SHARES.  

15.1. Voting and Dividends. No Participant will have any of the rights of a stockholder with respect to any Shares until the
Shares are issued to the Participant, except for any dividend equivalent rights permitted by an applicable Award Agreement. After Shares are issued to the Participant, the Participant will be a stockholder and have all the rights of a stockholder
with respect to such Shares, including the right to vote and receive all dividends or other distributions made or paid with respect to such Shares; provided, that if such Shares are Restricted Stock, then any new, additional or different
securities the Participant may become entitled to receive with respect to such Shares by virtue of a stock dividend, stock split or any other change in the corporate or capital structure of the Company will be subject to the same restrictions as the
Restricted Stock; provided, further, that the Participant will have no right to retain such stock dividends or stock distributions with respect to Shares that are repurchased at the Participant’s Purchase Price or Exercise Price,
as the case may be, pursuant to Section 15.2. 

  
 11 

 15.2. Restrictions on Shares. At the discretion of the Committee, the Company may
reserve to itself and/or its assignee(s) a right to repurchase (a “Right of Repurchase”) a portion of any or all Unvested Shares held by a Participant following such Participant’s termination of Service at any time within ninety
(90) days (or such longer or shorter time determined by the Committee) after the later of the date Participant’s Service terminates and the date the Participant purchases Shares under this Plan, for cash and/or cancellation of purchase
money indebtedness, at the Participant’s Purchase Price or Exercise Price, as the case may be. 
 16. CERTIFICATES. All Shares or other
securities whether or not certificated, delivered under this Plan will be subject to such stock transfer orders, legends and other restrictions as the Committee may deem necessary or advisable, including restrictions under any applicable U.S.
federal, state or foreign securities law, or any rules, regulations and other requirements of the SEC or any stock exchange or automated quotation system upon which the Shares may be listed or quoted and any non-U.S. exchange controls or securities
law restrictions to which the Shares are subject. 
 17. ESCROW; PLEDGE OF SHARES. To enforce any restrictions on a Participant’s Shares,
the Committee may require the Participant to deposit all certificates representing Shares, together with stock powers or other instruments of transfer approved by the Committee, appropriately endorsed in blank, with the Company or an agent
designated by the Company to hold in escrow until such restrictions have lapsed or terminated, and the Committee may cause a legend or legends referencing such restrictions to be placed on the certificates. Any Participant who is permitted to
execute a promissory note as partial or full consideration for the purchase of Shares under this Plan will be required to pledge and deposit with the Company all or part of the Shares so purchased as collateral to secure the payment of the
Participant’s obligation to the Company under the promissory note; provided, however, that the Committee may require or accept other or additional forms of collateral to secure the payment of such obligation and, in any event, the
Company will have full recourse against the Participant under the promissory note notwithstanding any pledge of the Participant’s Shares or other collateral. In connection with any pledge of the Shares, the Participant will be required to
execute and deliver a written pledge agreement in such form as the Committee will from time to time approve. The Shares purchased with the promissory note may be released from the pledge on a pro rata basis as the promissory note is paid. 

18. REPRICING; EXCHANGE AND BUYOUT OF AWARDS. Without prior stockholder approval, the Committee may (i) reprice Options or SARs (and where
such repricing is a reduction in the Exercise Price of outstanding Options or SARs, the consent of the affected Participants is not required provided written notice is provided to them, notwithstanding any adverse tax consequences to them arising
from the repricing), and (ii) with the consent of the respective Participants (unless not required pursuant to Section 5.8 of the Plan), pay cash or issue new Awards in exchange for the surrender and cancellation of any, or all,
outstanding Awards. 
 19. SECURITIES LAW AND OTHER REGULATORY COMPLIANCE. An Award will not be effective unless such Award is in compliance
with all applicable U.S. and foreign federal and state securities and exchange control laws, rules and regulations of any governmental body, and the requirements of any stock exchange or automated quotation system upon which the Shares may then be
listed or quoted, as they are in effect on the date of grant of the Award and also on the date of exercise or other issuance. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Plan, the Company will have no obligation to issue or deliver certificates for
Shares under this Plan prior to: (a) obtaining any approvals from governmental agencies that the Company determines are necessary or advisable; and/or (b) completion of any registration or other qualification of such Shares under any state
or federal or foreign law or ruling of any governmental body that the Company determines to be necessary or advisable. The Company will be under no obligation to register the Shares with the SEC or to effect compliance with the registration,
qualification or listing requirements of any foreign or state securities laws, exchange control laws, stock exchange or automated quotation system, and the Company will have no liability for any inability or failure to do so. 

  
 12 

 20. NO OBLIGATION TO EMPLOY. Nothing in this Plan or any Award granted under this Plan will confer
or be deemed to confer on any Participant any right to continue in the employ of, or to continue any other relationship with, the Company or any Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate or limit in any way the right of the Company or any Parent, Subsidiary
or Affiliate to terminate Participant’s employment or other relationship at any time. 
 21. CORPORATE TRANSACTIONS.  

21.1. Assumption or Replacement of Awards by Successor. In the event of a Corporate Transaction any or all outstanding Awards may
be assumed or replaced by the successor corporation, which assumption or replacement shall be binding on all Participants. In the alternative, the successor corporation may substitute equivalent Awards or provide substantially similar consideration
to Participants as was provided to stockholders (after taking into account the existing provisions of the Awards). The successor corporation may also issue, in place of outstanding Shares of the Company held by the Participant, substantially similar
shares or other property subject to repurchase restrictions no less favorable to the Participant. In the event such successor or acquiring corporation (if any) refuses to assume, convert, replace or substitute Awards, as provided above, pursuant to
a Corporate Transaction, then notwithstanding any other provision in this Plan to the contrary, such Awards shall have their vesting accelerate as to all shares subject to such Award (and any applicable right of repurchase fully lapse) immediately
prior to the Corporate Transaction. In addition, following a Corporate Transaction, (a) 50% of the total number of Shares subject to each Award held by an Employee shall become vested if the holder is subject to an Involuntary Termination
within 12 months after the Corporate Transaction; and (b) 25% of the total number of Shares subject to each Award held by an Employee shall become vested if the holder is subject to an Involuntary Termination during the period beginning on the
first date following the twelve (12) month anniversary of the Corporate Transaction and ending on the twenty-four (24) month anniversary of the Corporate Transaction; it being understood that the vesting acceleration set forth in the
preceding clauses (a) and (b) is in addition to vesting of the Shares that has occurred prior to the Involuntary Termination. The Board shall have full power and authority to assign the Company’s right to repurchase or re-acquire or
forfeiture rights to such successor or acquiring corporation. In addition, in the event such successor or acquiring corporation refuses to assume, convert, replace or substitute Awards, as provided above, pursuant to a Corporate Transaction, the
Committee will notify the Participant in writing or electronically that such Award will be exercisable for a period of time determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, and such Award will terminate upon the expiration of such period. Awards
need not be treated similarly in a Corporate Transaction. The provisions of this Section 21.1 shall apply to Awards outstanding on the Effective Date under the Prior Plan; provided the vesting acceleration provisions set forth in any employment
agreement or letter or similar agreement between the Company and an employee in effect on the Effective Date, to the extent more favorable to such employee, will continue to apply to the equity awards held by the employee on the Effective Date. 

21.2. Assumption of Awards by the Company. The Company, from time to time, also may substitute or assume outstanding awards
granted by another company, whether in connection with an acquisition of such other company or otherwise, by either; (a) granting an Award under this Plan in substitution of such other company’s award; or (b) assuming such award as if
it had been granted under this Plan if the terms of such assumed award could be applied to an Award granted under this Plan. Such substitution or assumption will be permissible if the holder of the substituted or assumed award would have been
eligible to be granted an Award under this Plan if the other company had applied the rules of this Plan to such grant. In the event the Company assumes an award granted by another company, the terms and conditions of such award will remain unchanged
(except that the Purchase Price or the Exercise Price, as the case may be, and the number and nature of Shares issuable upon exercise or settlement of any such Award will be adjusted appropriately pursuant to Section 424(a) of the Code).
In the event the Company elects to grant a new Option in substitution rather than assuming an existing option, such new Option may be granted with a similarly adjusted Exercise Price. Substitute Awards shall not reduce the number of Shares
authorized for grant under the Plan or authorized for grant to a Participant in a calendar year. 
 21.3. Non-Employee
Directors’ Awards. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein, in the event of a Corporate Transaction, the vesting of all Awards granted to Non-Employee Directors shall accelerate and such Awards shall become exercisable (as
applicable) in full prior to the consummation of such event at such times and on such conditions as the Committee determines. 

  
 13 

 22. ADOPTION AND STOCKHOLDER APPROVAL. This Plan shall be submitted for the approval of the
Company’s stockholders, consistent with applicable laws, within twelve (12) months before or after the date this Plan is adopted by the Board. 

23. TERM OF PLAN/GOVERNING LAW. Unless earlier terminated as provided herein, this Plan will become effective on the Effective Date and will
terminate ten (10) years from the date this Plan is adopted by the Board. This Plan and all Awards granted hereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware (excluding its conflict of laws rules).

 24. AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION OF PLAN. The Board may at any time terminate or amend this Plan in any respect, including, without limitation,
amendment of any form of Award Agreement or instrument to be executed pursuant to this Plan; provided, however, that the Board will not, without the approval of the stockholders of the Company, amend this Plan in any manner that
requires such stockholder approval; provided further, that a Participant’s Award shall be governed by the version of this Plan then in effect at the time such Award was granted. 

25. NONEXCLUSIVITY OF THE PLAN. Neither the adoption of this Plan by the Board, the submission of this Plan to the stockholders of the Company
for approval, nor any provision of this Plan will be construed as creating any limitations on the power of the Board to adopt such additional compensation arrangements as it may deem desirable, including, without limitation, the granting of stock
awards and bonuses otherwise than under this Plan, and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases. 
 26.
INSIDER TRADING POLICY. Each Participant who receives an Award shall comply with any policy adopted by the Company from time to time covering transactions in the Company’s securities by Employees, officers and/or directors of the
Company. 
 27. ALL AWARDS SUBJECT TO COMPANY CLAWBACK OR RECOUPMENT POLICY. All Awards, subject to applicable law, shall be subject to
clawback or recoupment pursuant to any compensation clawback or recoupment policy adopted by the Board or required by law during the term of Participant’s employment or other service with the Company that is applicable to executive officers,
employees, directors or other service providers of the Company, and in addition to any other remedies available under such policy and applicable law, may require the cancellation of outstanding Awards and the recoupment of any gains realized with
respect to Awards.

Cause shall be made in good faith by the Company and shall be final and binding on the Participant. The foregoing definition does not in any way limit the Company’s ability to terminate a Participant’s employment or consulting relationship
at any time as provided in Section 20 above, and the term “Company” will be interpreted to include any Subsidiary or Parent, as appropriate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the foregoing definition of “Cause” may, in part or

Company or a Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company, subject to such further limitations as may be set forth in the Plan or the applicable Award Agreement. An Employee will not be 

  
 19 

 
deemed to have ceased to provide Service in the case of (i) sick leave, (ii) military leave, or (iii) any other leave of absence approved by the Company; provided, that such
leave is for a period of not more than 90 days, unless reemployment upon the expiration of such leave is guaranteed by contract or statute or unless provided otherwise pursuant to formal policy adopted from time to time by the Company and issued and
promulgated to employees in writing. In the case of any Employee on an approved leave of absence or a reduction in hours worked (for illustrative purposes only, a change in schedule from that of full-time to part-time), the Committee may make such
provisions respecting suspension of or modification of vesting of the Award while on leave from the employ of the Company or a Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate or during such change in working hours as it may deem appropriate, except that in no event
may an Award be exercised after the expiration of the term set forth in the applicable Award Agreement. In the event of military leave, if required by applicable laws, vesting shall continue for the longest period that vesting continues under any
other statutory or Company approved leave of absence and, upon a Participant’s returning from military leave (under conditions that would entitle him or her to protection upon such return under the Uniform Services Employment and Reemployment
Rights Act), he or she shall be given vesting credit with respect to Awards to the same extent as would have applied had the Participant continued to provide services to the Company throughout the leave on the same terms as he or she was providing
services immediately prior to such leave. Except as set forth in this Section 28.40, an employee shall have terminated employment as of the date he or she ceases to provide services (regardless of whether the termination is in breach of local
employment laws or is later found to be invalid) and employment shall not be extended by any notice period or garden leave mandated by local law, provided however, that a change in status from an employee to a consultant or advisor shall not
terminate the service provider’s Service, unless determined by the Committee, in its discretion. The Committee will have sole discretion to determine whether a Participant has ceased to provide Services and the effective date on which the
Participant ceased to provide Services. 
 28.41. “Shares” means shares of the Common Stock and the common
stock of any successor security. 
 28.42. “Stock Appreciation Right” means an Award granted pursuant to
Section 8 or Section 12 of the Plan. 
 28.43. “Stock Bonus” means an Award granted pursuant to
Section 7 or Section 12 of the Plan. 
 28.44. “Subsidiary” means any corporation (other than the
Company) in an unbroken chain of corporations beginning with the Company if each of the corporations other than the last corporation in the unbroken chain owns stock possessing fifty percent (50%) or more of the total combined voting power of
all classes of stock in one of the other corporations in such chain. 
 28.45. “Treasury Regulations” means
regulations promulgated by the United States Treasury Department.

 STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT

NIMBLE STORAGE, INC. 2013 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN 

You have been granted an Option by Nimble Storage, Inc. (the “Company”) under the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the
“Plan”) to purchase Shares (the “Option”), subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, the Notice of Stock Option Grant (the “Notice of Grant”) and this Stock Option
Agreement (the “Agreement”).  
 1. Grant of Option. You have been granted an
Option for the number of Shares set forth in the Notice of Grant at the exercise price per Share set forth in the Notice of Grant (the “exercise price”). In the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of the Plan
and the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Plan shall prevail. If designated in the Notice of Grant as an Incentive Stock Option (“ISO”), this Option is intended to qualify as an Incentive
Stock Option under Section 422 of the Code. However, if this Option is intended to be an ISO, to the extent that it exceeds the $100,000 rule of Code Section 422(d) it shall be treated as a Nonqualified Stock Option
(“NSO”).  
 2. Termination Period.

(a) General Rule. If your Service terminates for any reason except death or Disability, and other than for Cause, then this Option will
expire at the close of business at Company headquarters on the date three months after your termination date. If your Service is terminated for Cause, this Option will expire upon the date of such termination. The Company determines when your
Service terminates for all purposes under this Agreement. 
 (b) Death; Disability. If you die before your Service terminates, then
this Option will expire at the close of business at Company headquarters on the date 18 months after the date of death. If your Service terminates because of your Disability, then this Option will expire at the close of business at Company
headquarters on the date 12 months after your termination date. 
 (c) No Notice. You are responsible for keeping track of these
exercise periods following your termination of Service for any reason. The Company will not provide further notice of such periods. In no event shall this Option be exercised later than the Expiration Date set forth in the Notice of Grant. 

3. Exercise of Option.

(a) Right to Exercise. This Option is exercisable during its term in accordance with the Vesting Schedule set forth in the Notice of
Grant and the applicable provisions of the Plan and this Agreement. In the event of your death, Disability, or other cessation of Service, the exercisability of the Option is governed by the applicable provisions of the Plan, the Notice of Grant and
this Agreement. This Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share. 
 (b) Method of Exercise. This Option is exercisable by
delivery of an exercise notice in a form specified by the Company (the “Exercise Notice”), which shall state the election to exercise the Option, the number of Shares in respect of which the Option is being exercised (the
“Exercised Shares”), and such other representations and agreements as may be required by the Company pursuant to the provisions of the Plan. The Exercise Notice shall be delivered in person, by mail, via electronic mail or
facsimile or by other authorized method to the Secretary of the Company or other person designated by the Company. The Exercise Notice shall be accompanied by payment of the aggregate exercise price as to all Exercised Shares. This Option shall be
deemed to be exercised upon receipt by the Company of a fully executed Exercise Notice accompanied by the aggregate exercise price and any applicable tax withholding due upon exercise of the Option. 

  
 23 

 (c) Exercise by Another. If another person wants to exercise this Option after it has been
transferred to him or her in compliance with this Agreement, that person must prove to the Company’s satisfaction that he or she is entitled to exercise this Option. That person must also complete the proper Exercise Notice form (as described
above) and pay the exercise price (as described below) and any applicable tax withholding due upon exercise of the Option (as described below). 

4. Method of Payment. Payment of the aggregate exercise price shall be by any of the following, or a combination thereof, at
your election:  
 (a) your personal check, wire transfer, or a cashier’s check; 

(b) certificates for shares of Company stock that you own, along with any forms needed to effect a transfer of those shares to the Company;
the value of the shares, determined as of the effective date of the Option exercise, will be applied to the Option exercise price. Instead of surrendering shares of Company stock, you may attest to the ownership of those shares on a form provided by
the Company and have the same number of shares subtracted from the Option shares issued to you. However, you may not surrender, or attest to the ownership of, shares of Company stock in payment of the exercise price of your Option if your action
would cause the Company to recognize compensation expense (or additional compensation expense) with respect to this Option for financial reporting purposes; 

(c) cashless exercise through irrevocable directions to a securities broker approved by the Company to sell all or part of the Shares covered
by this Option and to deliver to the Company from the sale proceeds an amount sufficient to pay the Option exercise price and any withholding taxes. The balance of the sale proceeds, if any, will be delivered to you. The directions must be given by
signing a special notice of exercise form provided by the Company; or 
 (d) other method authorized by the Company. 

5. Non-Transferability of Option. In general, except as provided below, only you may exercise this Option prior to your death.
You may not transfer or assign this Option, except as provided below. For instance, you may not sell this Option or use it as security for a loan. If you attempt to do any of these things, this Option will immediately become invalid. You may,
however, dispose of this Option in your will or in a beneficiary designation. However, if this Option is designated as a NSO in the Notice of Grant, then the Committee (as defined in the Plan) may, in its sole discretion, allow you to transfer this
Option as a gift to one or more family members. For purposes of this Agreement, “family member” means a child, stepchild, grandchild, parent, stepparent, grandparent, spouse, former spouse, sibling, niece, nephew, mother-in- law,
father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law or sister-in-law (including adoptive relationships), any individual sharing your household (other than a tenant or employee), a trust in which one or more of these individuals have more than
50% of the beneficial interest, a foundation in which you or one or more of these persons control the management of assets, and any entity in which you or one or more of these persons own more than 50% of the voting interest. In addition, if this
Option is designated as a NSO in the Notice of Grant, then the Committee may, in its sole discretion, allow you to transfer this Option to your spouse or former spouse pursuant to a domestic relations order in settlement of marital property rights.
The Committee will allow you to transfer this Option only if both you and the transferee(s) execute the forms prescribed by the Committee, which include the consent of the transferee(s) to be bound by this Agreement. This Option may not be
transferred in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution or court order and may be exercised during the lifetime of you only by you, your guardian, or legal representative, as permitted in the Plan. The terms of the
Plan and this Agreement shall be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs, successors and assigns of you.  
 6.
Term of Option. This Option shall in any event expire on the expiration date set forth in the Notice of Grant, which date is 10 years after the grant date (five years after the grant date if this Option is designated as an ISO in the
Notice of Grant and Section 5.3 of the Plan applies). 

  
 24 

 7. Tax Consequences. You should consult a tax advisor for tax consequences relating
to this Option in the jurisdiction in which you are subject to tax. YOU SHOULD CONSULT A TAX ADVISER BEFORE EXERCISING THIS OPTION OR DISPOSING OF THE SHARES. 

(a) Exercising the Option. You will not be allowed to exercise this Option unless you make arrangements acceptable to the Company to
pay any withholding taxes that may be due as a result of the Option exercise. 
 (b) Notice of Disqualifying Disposition of ISO
Shares. If you sell or otherwise dispose of any of the Shares acquired pursuant to an ISO on or before the later of (i) two years after the grant date, or (ii) one year after the exercise date, you shall immediately notify the Company
in writing of such disposition. You agree that he or she may be subject to income tax withholding by the Company on the compensation income recognized from such early disposition of ISO Shares by payment in cash or out of the current compensation
paid to you. 
 8. Withholding Taxes and Stock Withholding. Regardless of any action the Company or your actual employer (the
“Employer”) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), you acknowledge that the ultimate
liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by you is and remains your responsibility and that the Company and/or the Employer (1) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with
any aspect of the Option grant, including the grant, vesting or exercise of the Option, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such exercise and the receipt of any dividends; and (2) do not commit to structure the terms of the grant
or any aspect of the Option to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related Items. 
 Prior to exercise of the Option, you shall pay or make adequate
arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all withholding and payment on account obligations of the Company and/or the Employer. In this regard, you authorize the Company and/or the Employer to withhold all applicable
Tax-Related Items legally payable by you from your wages or other cash compensation paid to you by the Company and/or the Employer. With the Company’s consent, these arrangements may also include, if permissible under local law,
(a) withholding Shares that otherwise would be issued to you when you exercise this Option, provided that the Company only withholds the amount of Shares necessary to satisfy the minimum statutory withholding amount, (b) having the Company
withhold taxes from the proceeds of the sale of the Shares, either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on your behalf pursuant to this authorization), or (c) any other arrangement approved by the
Company. The Fair Market Value of these Shares, determined as of the effective date of the Option exercise, will be applied as a credit against the withholding taxes. Finally, you shall pay to the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related
Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold as a result of your participation in the Plan or your purchase of Shares that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to honor the exercise and
refuse to deliver the Shares if you fail to comply with your obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items as described in this Section. 

9. Acknowledgement. The Company and you agree that the Option is granted under and governed by the Notice of Grant, this
Agreement and by the provisions of the Plan (incorporated herein by reference). You: (i) acknowledge receipt of a copy of the Plan and the Plan prospectus, (ii) represent that you have carefully read and are familiar with their provisions,
and (iii) hereby accept the Option subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth herein and those set forth in the Plan and the Notice of Grant. You hereby agree to accept as binding, conclusive and final all decisions or interpretations
of the Committee upon any questions relating to the Plan, the Notice of Grant and the Agreement.  
 10. Consent to Electronic
Delivery of All Plan Documents and Disclosures. By your acceptance of this Option, you consent to the electronic delivery of the Notice of Grant, this Agreement, the Plan, account statements, Plan prospectuses required by the Securities and
Exchange Commission, U.S. financial reports of the Company, and all other documents that the Company is required to deliver to 

  
 25 

 
its security holders (including, without limitation, annual reports and proxy statements) or other communications or information related to the Option. Electronic delivery may include the
delivery of a link to a Company intranet or the internet site of a third party involved in administering the Plan, the delivery of the document via e-mail or such other delivery determined at the Company’s discretion. You acknowledge that you
may receive from the Company a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically at no cost if you contact the Company by telephone, through a postal service or electronic mail at [insert email]. You further acknowledge that you will be provided
with a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically if electronic delivery fails; similarly, you understand that you must provide on request to the Company or any designated third party a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically
if electronic delivery fails. Also, you understand that your consent may be revoked or changed, including any change in the electronic mail address to which documents are delivered (if you have provided an electronic mail address), at any time by
notifying the Company of such revised or revoked consent by telephone, postal service or electronic mail at [insert email]. Finally, you understand that you are not required to consent to electronic delivery. 

11. Compliance with Laws and Regulations. The Company will not permit anyone to exercise this Option if the issuance of shares
at that time would violate any law or regulation, including without limitation all applicable state, federal and foreign laws and regulations and all applicable requirements of any stock exchange or automated quotation system on which the
Company’s Common Stock may be listed or quoted at the time of such issuance or transfer. The Shares issued pursuant to this Agreement shall be endorsed with appropriate legends, if any, determined by the Company. 

12. Governing Law; Severability. If one or more provisions of this Agreement are held to be unenforceable under applicable law,
the parties agree to renegotiate such provision in good faith. In the event that the parties cannot reach a mutually agreeable and enforceable replacement for such provision, then (i) such provision shall be excluded from this Agreement,
(ii) the balance of this Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and (iii) the balance of this Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms. This Agreement and all acts and transactions pursuant
hereto and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law. 

13. No Rights as Employee, Director or Consultant. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect in any manner whatsoever the right or
power of the Company, or a Parent or Subsidiary of the Company, to terminate your Service, for any reason, with or without Cause. 
 14.
Adjustment. In the event of a stock split, a stock dividend or a similar change in Company stock, the number of Shares covered by this Option and the exercise price per Share may be adjusted pursuant to the Plan. 

15. Lock-Up Agreement. In connection with the initial public offering of the Company’s securities and upon request of the
Company or the underwriters managing any underwritten offering of the Company’s securities, you hereby agree not to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any Option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any securities of the Company
however and whenever acquired (other than those included in the registration) without the prior written consent of the Company or such underwriters, as the case may be, for such period of time (not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days) from
the effective date of such registration as may be requested by the Company or such managing underwriters and to execute an agreement reflecting the foregoing as may be requested by the underwriters at the time of the public offering; provided
however that, if during the last seventeen (17) days of the restricted period the Company issues an earnings release or material news or a material event relating to the Company occurs, or prior to the expiration of the restricted period the
Company announces that it will release earnings results during the sixteen (16)-day period beginning on the last day of the restricted period, then, upon the request of the managing underwriter, to the extent required by any FINRA rules, the
restrictions imposed by this Section shall continue to apply until the end of the third trading day following the expiration of the fifteen (15)-day period beginning on the issuance of the earnings release or the occurrence of the material news or
material event. In no event will the restricted period extend beyond two hundred sixteen (216) days after the effective date of the registration statement. 

  
 26 

 16. Award Subject to Company Clawback or Recoupment. The Option shall be subject to
clawback or recoupment pursuant to any compensation clawback or recoupment policy adopted by the Board or required by law during the term of your employment or other Service with the Company that is applicable to executive officers, employees,
directors or other remedies available under such policy and applicable law may require the cancelation of your Option (whether vested or unvested) and the recoupment of any gains realized with respect to your Option.  

This Agreement and the Plan constitute the entire understanding between you and the Company regarding this Option. Any prior agreements,
commitments or negotiations concerning this Option are superseded. This Agreement may be amended only by another written agreement between the parties. 

BY ACCEPTING THIS OPTION, YOU AGREE TO ALL OF THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS DESCRIBED ABOVE AND IN THE PLAN.

 STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT (INTERNATIONAL) 

NIMBLE STORAGE, INC. 2013 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN 

You have been granted an Option by Nimble Storage, Inc. (the “Company”) under the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the
“Plan”) to purchase Shares (the “Option”), subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, the Notice of Stock Option Grant (the “Notice of Grant”) and this Stock Option
Agreement (the “Agreement”).  
 1. Grant of Option. You have been granted an
Option for the number of Shares set forth in the Notice of Grant at the exercise price per Share set forth in the Notice of Grant (the “exercise price”). In the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of the Plan
and the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Plan shall prevail.  
 2. Termination
Period.
 (a) General Rule. If your Service terminates for any reason except death or Disability, and other than for Cause,
then this Option will expire at the close of business at Company headquarters on the date three months after your termination date. If your Service is terminated for Cause, this Option will expire upon the date of such termination. The Company
determines when your Service terminates for all purposes under this Agreement. 
 (b) Death; Disability. If you die before your
Service terminates, then this Option will expire at the close of business at Company headquarters on the date 18 months after the date of death. If your Service terminates because of your Disability, then this Option will expire at the close of
business at Company headquarters on the date 12 months after your termination date. 
 (c) No Notice. You are responsible for keeping
track of these exercise periods following your termination of Service for any reason. The Company will not provide further notice of such periods. In no event shall this Option be exercised later than the Expiration Date set forth in the Notice of
Grant. 
 3. Exercise of Option.

(a) Right to Exercise. This Option is exercisable during its term in accordance with the Vesting Schedule set forth in the Notice of
Grant and the applicable provisions of the Plan and this Agreement. In the event of your death, Disability, or other cessation of Service, the exercisability of the Option is governed by the applicable provisions of the Plan, the Notice of Grant and
this Agreement. This Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share. 
 (b) Method of Exercise. This Option is exercisable by
delivery of an exercise notice in a form specified by the Company (the “Exercise Notice”), which shall state the election to exercise the Option, the number of Shares in respect of which the Option is being exercised (the
“Exercised Shares”), and such other representations and agreements as may be required by the Company pursuant to the provisions of the Plan. The Exercise Notice shall be delivered in person, by mail, via electronic mail or
facsimile or by other authorized method to the Secretary of the Company or other person designated by the Company. The Exercise Notice shall be accompanied by payment of the aggregate exercise price as to all Exercised Shares. This Option shall be
deemed to be exercised upon receipt by the Company of a fully executed Exercise Notice accompanied by the aggregate exercise price and any applicable tax withholding due upon exercise of the Option. 

(c) Exercise by Another. If another person wants to exercise this Option after it has been transferred to him or her in compliance with
this Agreement, that person must prove to the Company’s satisfaction that he or she is entitled to exercise this Option. That person must also complete the proper Exercise Notice form (as described above) and pay the exercise price (as
described below) and any applicable tax withholding due upon exercise of the Option (as described below). 

  
 30 

 4. Method of Payment. Payment of the aggregate exercise price shall be by any of
the following, or a combination thereof, at the election of you:  
 (a) your personal check, wire transfer, or a cashier’s
check; 
 (b) certificates for shares of Company stock that you own, along with any forms needed to effect a transfer of those shares to the
Company; the value of the shares, determined as of the effective date of the Option exercise, will be applied to the Option exercise price. Instead of surrendering shares of Company stock, you may attest to the ownership of those shares on a form
provided by the Company and have the same number of shares subtracted from the Option shares issued to you. However, you may not surrender, or attest to the ownership of, shares of Company stock in payment of the exercise price of your Option if
your action would cause the Company to recognize compensation expense (or additional compensation expense) with respect to this Option for financial reporting purposes; 

(c) cashless exercise through irrevocable directions to a securities broker approved by the Company to sell all or part of the Shares covered
by this Option and to deliver to the Company from the sale proceeds an amount sufficient to pay the Option exercise price and any withholding taxes. The balance of the sale proceeds, if any, will be delivered to you. The directions must be given by
signing a special notice of exercise form provided by the Company; or 
 (d) other method authorized by the Company. 

5. Non-Transferability of Option. In general, except as provided below, only you may exercise this Option prior to your death.
You may not transfer or assign this Option, except as provided below. For instance, you may not sell this Option or use it as security for a loan. If you attempt to do any of these things, this Option will immediately become invalid. You may,
however, dispose of this Option in your will or in a beneficiary designation. However, the Committee (as defined in the Plan) may, in its sole discretion, allow you to transfer this Option as a gift to one or more family members. For purposes of
this Agreement, “family member” means a child, stepchild, grandchild, parent, stepparent, grandparent, spouse, former spouse, sibling, niece, nephew, mother-in- law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law or
sister-in-law (including adoptive relationships), any individual sharing your household (other than a tenant or employee), a trust in which one or more of these individuals have more than 50% of the beneficial interest, a foundation in which you or
one or more of these persons control the management of assets, and any entity in which you or one or more of these persons own more than 50% of the voting interest. In addition, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, allow you to transfer this
Option to your spouse or former spouse pursuant to a domestic relations order in settlement of marital property rights. The Committee will allow you to transfer this Option only if both you and the transferee(s) execute the forms prescribed by the
Committee, which include the consent of the transferee(s) to be bound by this Agreement. This Option may not be transferred in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution or court order and may be exercised during the
lifetime of you only by you, your guardian, or legal representative, as permitted in the Plan. The terms of the Plan and this Agreement shall be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs, successors and assigns of you.  

6. Term of Option. This Option shall in any event expire on the expiration date set forth in the Notice of Grant, which date is
10 years after the grant date. 
 7. Tax Consequences. You should consult a tax advisor for tax consequences relating to this
Option in the jurisdiction in which you are subject to tax. YOU SHOULD CONSULT A TAX ADVISER BEFORE EXERCISING THIS OPTION OR DISPOSING OF THE SHARES. You will not be allowed to exercise this Option unless you make arrangements acceptable to the
Company to pay any withholding taxes that may be due as a result of the Option exercise. 

  
 31 

 8. Withholding Taxes and Stock Withholding. Regardless of any action the Company or
your actual employer (the “Employer”) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), you
acknowledge that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by you is and remains your responsibility and that the Company and/or the Employer (a) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any
Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Option grant, including the grant, vesting or exercise of the Option, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such exercise and the receipt of any dividends; and (b) do not
commit to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Option to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related Items. 
 Prior to exercise of
the Option, you shall pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all withholding and payment on account obligations of the Company and/or the Employer. In this regard, you authorize the Company
and/or the Employer to withhold all applicable Tax-Related Items legally payable by you from your wages or other cash compensation paid to you by the Company and/or the Employer. With the Company’s consent, these arrangements may also include,
if permissible under local law, (i) withholding Shares that otherwise would be issued to you when you exercise this Option, provided that the Company only withholds the amount of Shares necessary to satisfy the minimum statutory withholding
amount, (ii) having the Company withhold taxes from the proceeds of the sale of the Shares, either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on your behalf pursuant to this authorization), or (iii) any
other arrangement approved by the Company. The Fair Market Value of these Shares, determined as of the effective date of the Option exercise, will be applied as a credit against the withholding taxes. Finally, you shall pay to the Company or the
Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold as a result of your participation in the Plan or your purchase of Shares that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company
may refuse to honor the exercise and refuse to deliver the Shares if you fail to comply with your obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items as described in this Section. 

9. Acknowledgement. The Company and you agree that the Option is granted under and governed by the Notice of Grant, this
Agreement and by the provisions of the Plan (incorporated herein by reference). You: (a) acknowledge receipt of a copy of the Plan and the Plan prospectus, (b) represent that you have carefully read and are familiar with their provisions,
and (c) hereby accept the Option subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth herein and those set forth in the Plan and the Notice of Grant. You hereby agree to accept as binding, conclusive and final all decisions or interpretations
of the Committee upon any questions relating to the Plan, the Notice of Grant and the Agreement. 
 10. Consent to Electronic Delivery
of All Plan Documents and Disclosures. By your acceptance of this Option, you consent to the electronic delivery of the Notice of Grant, this Agreement, the Plan, account statements, Plan prospectuses required by the Securities and Exchange
Commission, U.S. financial reports of the Company, and all other documents that the Company is required to deliver to its security holders (including, without limitation, annual reports and proxy statements) or other communications or information
related to the Option. Electronic delivery may include the delivery of a link to a Company intranet or the internet site of a third party involved in administering the Plan, the delivery of the document via e-mail or such other delivery determined
at the Company’s discretion. You acknowledge that you may receive from the Company a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically at no cost if you contact the Company by telephone, through a postal service or electronic mail at [insert
email]. You further acknowledge that you will be provided with a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically if electronic delivery fails; similarly, you understand that you must provide on request to the Company or any designated third
party a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically if electronic delivery fails. Also, you understand that your consent may be revoked or changed, including any change in the electronic mail address to which documents are delivered (if you
have provided an electronic mail address), at any time by notifying the Company of such revised or revoked consent by telephone, postal service or electronic mail at [insert email]. Finally, you understand that you are not required to consent to
electronic delivery. 

  
 32 

 11. Compliance with Laws and Regulations. The Company will not permit anyone to
exercise this Option if the issuance of shares at that time would violate any law or regulation, including without limitation all applicable state, federal and foreign laws and regulations and all applicable requirements of any stock exchange or
automated quotation system on which the Company’s Common Stock may be listed or quoted at the time of such issuance or transfer. The Shares issued pursuant to this Agreement shall be endorsed with appropriate legends, if any, determined by the
Company. 
 12. Governing Law; Severability. If one or more provisions of this Agreement are held to be unenforceable under
applicable law, the parties agree to renegotiate such provision in good faith. In the event that the parties cannot reach a mutually agreeable and enforceable replacement for such provision, then (a) such provision shall be excluded from this
Agreement, (b) the balance of this Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and (c) the balance of this Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms. This Agreement and all acts and transactions
pursuant hereto and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law. 

13. No Rights as Employee, Director or Consultant. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect in any manner whatsoever the right or
power of the Company, or a Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company, to terminate your Service, for any reason, with or without Cause, subject to applicable law. 

14. Adjustment. In the event of a stock split, a stock dividend or a similar change in Company stock, the number of Shares
covered by this Option and the exercise price per Share may be adjusted pursuant to the Plan. 
 15. Lock-Up Agreement. In
connection with the initial public offering of the Company’s securities and upon request of the Company or the underwriters managing any underwritten offering of the Company’s securities, you hereby agree not to sell, make any short sale
of, loan, grant any Option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any securities of the Company however and whenever acquired (other than those included in the registration) without the prior written consent of the Company or such
underwriters, as the case may be, for such period of time (not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days) from the effective date of such registration as may be requested by the Company or such managing underwriters and to execute an agreement
reflecting the foregoing as may be requested by the underwriters at the time of the public offering; provided however that, if during the last seventeen (17) days of the restricted period the Company issues an earnings release or material news
or a material event relating to the Company occurs, or prior to the expiration of the restricted period the Company announces that it will release earnings results during the sixteen (16)-day period beginning on the last day of the restricted
period, then, upon the request of the managing underwriter, to the extent required by any FINRA rules, the restrictions imposed by this Section shall continue to apply until the end of the third trading day following the expiration of the fifteen
(15)-day period beginning on the issuance of the earnings release or the occurrence of the material news or material event. In no event will the restricted period extend beyond two hundred sixteen (216) days after the effective date of the
registration statement. 
 16. Award Subject to Company Clawback or Recoupment. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the
Option shall be subject to clawback or recoupment pursuant to any compensation clawback or recoupment policy adopted by the Board or required by law during the term of your employment or other Service with the Company that is applicable to executive
officers, employees, directors or other remedies available under such policy and applicable law may require the cancelation of your Option (whether vested or unvested) and the recoupment of any gains realized with respect to your Option. 

17. Nature of Grant. In accepting the grant, you acknowledge 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; 

  
 33 

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

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

(d) you are voluntarily participating in the Plan; 

(e) the Option and the shares of Common Stock subject to the Option 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; 

(f) the Option and the shares of Common Stock subject to the Option are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation; 

(g) the Option and the shares of Common Stock subject to the Option are not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any
purposes, including, but not limited to, calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, 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 Subsidiary or Affiliate; 

(h) the Option and your participation in the Plan will not be interpreted to form an employment contract or relationship with the Company or
any Subsidiary or Affiliate; 
 (i) the future value of the underlying shares of Common Stock is unknown and cannot be predicted with
certainty; 
 (j) in consideration of the grant of the Option, no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from
forfeiture of the Option resulting from termination of your Service with the Company or the Employer (for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of local labor laws) and you irrevocably release the Company and the Employer from any such
claim that may arise; if, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen, you shall be deemed irrevocably to have waive any entitlement to pursue such claim; 

(k) in the event of termination of your Service (whether or not in breach of local labor laws), your right to vest in the Option under the
Plan, if any, will terminate effective as of the date that you are no longer actively providing Services and will not be extended by any notice period mandated under local law (e.g., active service would not include a period of “garden
leave” or similar period pursuant to local law); the Board/Committee shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when you are no longer actively providing Services for purposes of the Option; notwithstanding the foregoing, if your Service
terminates due to your death, the Option will be fully vested as of the date of death; and 
 (l) the Option and the benefits under the
Plan, if any, will not automatically transfer to another company in the case of a merger, take-over or transfer of liability. 
 18.
Data Privacy. (a) You hereby explicitly and unambiguously consent to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of your personal data as described in this Agreement and any other award materials by and
among, as applicable, the Employer, the Company, and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing your participation in the Plan.

(b) You understand that the Company and the Employer may hold certain personal information about you, including but not limited to, your
name, home address and telephone

  
 34 

 
number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any shares of Common Stock or directorships held in the Company, details of

 (c) You understand that Data will be transferred to any third parties assisting the Company with the implementation, administration
and management of the Plan. You understand that the recipients of the Data may be located in the United States or elsewhere, and that the recipients’ country (e.g., the United States) may have different data privacy laws and protections than
your country. You understand that you may request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Data by contacting your local human resources representative. You authorize the Company and any other possible recipients which
may assist the Company (presently or in the future) with implementing, administering and managing the Plan to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the sole purpose of implementing, administering and
managing your participation in the Plan. You understand that Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage your participation in the Plan. You understand that you may, at any time, view Data, request additional
information about the storage and processing of Data, require any necessary amendments to Data or refuse or withdraw the consents herein, in any case without cost, by contacting in writing your local human resources representative. You understand,
however, that refusing or withdrawing your consent may affect your ability to participate in the Plan. For more information on the consequences of your refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, you understand that you may contact your local human
resources representative.

special terms and conditions for 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

STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT — CEO FORM 
 NIMBLE STORAGE, INC. 2013 EQUITY
INCENTIVE PLAN 
 You have been granted an Option by Nimble Storage, Inc. (the “Company”) under the 2013 Equity
Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) to purchase Shares (the “Option”), subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, the Notice of Stock Option Grant (the “Notice of Grant”) and this
Stock Option Agreement (the “Agreement”).  
 1. Grant of Option. You have been granted an Option
for the number of Shares set forth in the Notice of Grant at the exercise price per Share set forth in the Notice of Grant (the “exercise price”). In the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of the Plan and
the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Plan shall prevail. If designated in the Notice of Grant as an Incentive Stock Option (“ISO”), this Option is intended to qualify as an Incentive
Stock Option under Section 422 of the Code. However, if this Option is intended to be an ISO, to the extent that it exceeds the $100,000 rule of Code Section 422(d) it shall be treated as a Nonqualified Stock Option
(“NSO”). 
 2. Termination Period. 

(a) General Rule. If your Service terminates for any reason except death or Disability, and other than for Cause, then this Option will
expire at the close of business at Company headquarters on the date three months after your termination date. If your Service is terminated for Cause, this Option will expire upon the date of such termination. The Company determines when your
Service terminates for all purposes under this Agreement. 
 (b) Death; Disability. If you die before your Service terminates, then
this Option will expire at the close of business at Company headquarters on the date 18 months after the date of death. If your Service terminates because of your Disability, then this Option will expire at the close of business at Company
headquarters on the date 12 months after your termination date. 
 (c) No Notice. You are responsible for keeping track of these
exercise periods following your termination of Service for any reason. The Company will not provide further notice of such periods. In no event shall this Option be exercised later than the Expiration Date set forth in the Notice of Grant. 

3. Exercise of Option. 
 (a)
Right to Exercise. This Option is exercisable during its term in accordance with the Vesting Schedule set forth in the Notice of Grant and the applicable provisions of the Plan and this Agreement. In the event of your death, Disability, or
other cessation of Service, the exercisability of the Option is governed by the applicable provisions of the Plan, the Notice of Grant and this Agreement. This Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share. 

(b) Method of Exercise. This Option is exercisable by delivery of an exercise notice in a form specified by the Company (the
“Exercise Notice”), which shall state the election to exercise the Option, the number of Shares in respect of which the Option is being exercised (the “Exercised Shares”), and such other
representations and agreements as may be required by the Company pursuant to the provisions of the Plan. The Exercise Notice shall be delivered in person, by mail, via electronic mail or facsimile or by other authorized method to the Secretary of
the Company or other person designated by the Company. The Exercise Notice shall be accompanied by payment of the aggregate exercise price as to all Exercised Shares. This Option shall be deemed to be exercised upon receipt by the Company of a fully
executed Exercise Notice accompanied by the aggregate exercise price and any applicable tax withholding due upon exercise of the Option. 

  
 39 

 (c) Exercise by Another. If another person wants to exercise this Option after it has been
transferred to him or her in compliance with this Agreement, that person must prove to the Company’s satisfaction that he or she is entitled to exercise this Option. That person must also complete the proper Exercise Notice form (as described
above) and pay the exercise price (as described below) and any applicable tax withholding due upon exercise of the Option (as described below). 
 4.
Method of Payment. Payment of the aggregate exercise price shall be by any of the following, or a combination thereof, at your election: 

(a) your personal check, wire transfer, or a cashier’s check; 

(b) certificates for shares of Company stock that you own, along with any forms needed to effect a transfer of those shares to the Company;
the value of the shares, determined as of the effective date of the Option exercise, will be applied to the Option exercise price. Instead of surrendering shares of Company stock, you may attest to the ownership of those shares on a form provided by
the Company and have the same number of shares subtracted from the Option shares issued to you. However, you may not surrender, or attest to the ownership of, shares of Company stock in payment of the exercise price of your Option if your action
would cause the Company to recognize compensation expense (or additional compensation expense) with respect to this Option for financial reporting purposes; 

(c) cashless exercise through irrevocable directions to a securities broker approved by the Company to sell all or part of the Shares covered
by this Option and to deliver to the Company from the sale proceeds an amount sufficient to pay the Option exercise price and any withholding taxes. The balance of the sale proceeds, if any, will be delivered to you. The directions must be given by
signing a special notice of exercise form provided by the Company; or 
 (d) other method authorized by the Company. 

5. Non-Transferability of Option. In general, except as provided below, only you may exercise this Option prior to your death. You may not
transfer or assign this Option, except as provided below. For instance, you may not sell this Option or use it as security for a loan. If you attempt to do any of these things, this Option will immediately become invalid. You may, however, dispose
of this Option in your will or in a beneficiary designation. However, if this Option is designated as a NSO in the Notice of Grant, then the Committee (as defined in the Plan) may, in its sole discretion, allow you to transfer this Option as a gift
to one or more family members. For purposes of this Agreement, “family member” means a child, stepchild, grandchild, parent, stepparent, grandparent, spouse, former spouse, sibling, niece, nephew, mother-in- law, father-in-law, son-in-law,
daughter-in-law, brother-in-law or sister-in-law (including adoptive relationships), any individual sharing your household (other than a tenant or employee), a trust in which one or more of these individuals have more than 50% of the beneficial
interest, a foundation in which you or one or more of these persons control the management of assets, and any entity in which you or one or more of these persons own more than 50% of the voting interest. In addition, if this Option is designated as
a NSO in the Notice of Grant, then the Committee may, in its sole discretion, allow you to transfer this Option to your spouse or former spouse pursuant to a domestic relations order in settlement of marital property rights. The Committee will allow
you to transfer this Option only if both you and the transferee(s) execute the forms prescribed by the Committee, which include the consent of the transferee(s) to be bound by this Agreement. This Option may not be transferred in any manner other
than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution or court order and may be exercised during the lifetime of you only by you, your guardian, or legal representative, as permitted in the Plan. The terms of the Plan and this Agreement shall be
binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs, successors and assigns of you. 
 6. Term of Option. This Option shall in any event expire
on the expiration date set forth in the Notice of Grant, which date is 10 years after the grant date (five years after the grant date if this Option is designated as an ISO in the Notice of Grant and Section 5.3 of the Plan applies). 

  
 40 

 7. Tax Consequences. You should consult a tax advisor for tax consequences relating to this Option
in the jurisdiction in which you are subject to tax. YOU SHOULD CONSULT A TAX ADVISER BEFORE EXERCISING THIS OPTION OR DISPOSING OF THE SHARES. 

(a) Exercising the Option. You will not be allowed to exercise this Option unless you make arrangements acceptable to the Company to
pay any withholding taxes that may be due as a result of the Option exercise. 
 (b) Notice of Disqualifying Disposition of ISO
Shares. If you sell or otherwise dispose of any of the Shares acquired pursuant to an ISO on or before the later of (i) two years after the grant date, or (ii) one year after the exercise date, you shall immediately notify the Company
in writing of such disposition. You agree that he or she may be subject to income tax withholding by the Company on the compensation income recognized from such early disposition of ISO Shares by payment in cash or out of the current compensation
paid to you. 
 8. Withholding Taxes and Stock Withholding. Regardless of any action the Company or your actual employer (the
“Employer”) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), you acknowledge that the ultimate
liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by you is and remains your responsibility and that the Company and/or the Employer (1) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with
any aspect of the Option grant, including the grant, vesting or exercise of the Option, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such exercise and the receipt of any dividends; and (2) do not commit to structure the terms of the grant
or any aspect of the Option to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related Items. 
 Prior to exercise of the Option, you shall pay or make adequate
arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all withholding and payment on account obligations of the Company and/or the Employer. In this regard, you authorize the Company and/or the Employer to withhold all applicable
Tax-Related Items legally payable by you from your wages or other cash compensation paid to you by the Company and/or the Employer. With the Company’s consent, these arrangements may also include, if permissible under local law,
(a) withholding Shares that otherwise would be issued to you when you exercise this Option, provided that the Company only withholds the amount of Shares necessary to satisfy the minimum statutory withholding amount, (b) having the Company
withhold taxes from the proceeds of the sale of the Shares, either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on your behalf pursuant to this authorization), or (c) any other arrangement approved by the
Company. The Fair Market Value of these Shares, determined as of the effective date of the Option exercise, will be applied as a credit against the withholding taxes. Finally, you shall pay to the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related
Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold as a result of your participation in the Plan or your purchase of Shares that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to honor the exercise and
refuse to deliver the Shares if you fail to comply with your obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items as described in this Section. 
 9.
Acknowledgement. The Company and you agree that the Option is granted under and governed by the Notice of Grant, this Agreement and by the provisions of the Plan (incorporated herein by reference). You: (i) acknowledge receipt of
a copy of the Plan and the Plan prospectus, (ii) represent that you have carefully read and are familiar with their provisions, and (iii) hereby accept the Option subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth herein and those set
forth in the Plan and the Notice of Grant. You hereby agree to accept as binding, conclusive and final all decisions or interpretations of the Committee upon any questions relating to the Plan, the Notice of Grant and the Agreement. 

10. Consent to Electronic Delivery of All Plan Documents and Disclosures. By your acceptance of this Option, you consent to the electronic
delivery of the Notice of Grant, this Agreement, the Plan, account statements, Plan prospectuses required by the Securities and Exchange Commission, U.S. financial reports of the Company, and all other documents that the Company is required to
deliver to its 

  
 41 

 
security holders (including, without limitation, annual reports and proxy statements) or other communications or information related to the Option. Electronic delivery may include the delivery of
a link to a Company intranet or the internet site of a third party involved in administering the Plan, the delivery of the document via e-mail or such other delivery determined at the Company’s discretion. You acknowledge that you may receive
from the Company a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically at no cost if you contact the Company by telephone, through a postal service or electronic mail. You further acknowledge that you will be provided with a paper copy of any
documents delivered electronically if electronic delivery fails; similarly, you understand that you must provide on request to the Company or any designated third party a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically if electronic delivery
fails. Also, you understand that your consent may be revoked or changed, including any change in the electronic mail address to which documents are delivered (if you have provided an electronic mail address), at any time by notifying the Company of
such revised or revoked consent by telephone, postal service or electronic mail. Finally, you understand that you are not required to consent to electronic delivery. 

11. Compliance with Laws and Regulations. The Company will not permit anyone to exercise this Option if the issuance of shares at that time
would violate any law or regulation, including without limitation all applicable state, federal and foreign laws and regulations and all applicable requirements of any stock exchange or automated quotation system on which the Company’s Common
Stock may be listed or quoted at the time of such issuance or transfer. The Shares issued pursuant to this Agreement shall be endorsed with appropriate legends, if any, determined by the Company. 

12. Governing Law; Severability. If one or more provisions of this Agreement are held to be unenforceable under applicable law, the parties
agree to renegotiate such provision in good faith. In the event that the parties cannot reach a mutually agreeable and enforceable replacement for such provision, then (i) such provision shall be excluded from this Agreement, (ii) the
balance of this Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and (iii) the balance of this Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms. This Agreement and all acts and transactions pursuant hereto and the
rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law. 

13. No Rights as Employee, Director or Consultant. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect in any manner whatsoever the right or power of the
Company, or a Parent or Subsidiary of the Company, to terminate your Service, for any reason, with or without Cause. 
 14. Adjustment. In the
event of a stock split, a stock dividend or a similar change in Company stock, the number of Shares covered by this Option and the exercise price per Share may be adjusted pursuant to the Plan. 

15. Lock-Up Agreement. In connection with the initial public offering of the Company’s securities and upon request of the Company or the
underwriters managing any underwritten offering of the Company’s securities, you hereby agree not to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any Option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any securities of the Company however and
whenever acquired (other than those included in the registration) without the prior written consent of the Company or such underwriters, as the case may be, for such period of time (not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days) from the
effective date of such registration as may be requested by the Company or such managing underwriters and to execute an agreement reflecting the foregoing as may be requested by the underwriters at the time of the public offering; provided however
that, if during the last seventeen (17) days of the restricted period the Company issues an earnings release or material news or a material event relating to the Company occurs, or prior to the expiration of the restricted period the Company
announces that it will release earnings results during the sixteen (16)-day period beginning on the last day of the restricted period, then, upon the request of the managing underwriter, to the extent required by any FINRA rules, the restrictions
imposed by this Section shall continue to apply until the end of the third trading day following the expiration of the fifteen (15)-day period beginning on the issuance of the earnings release or the occurrence of the material news or material
event. In no event will the restricted period extend beyond two hundred sixteen (216) days after the effective date of the registration statement. 

  
 42 

 
16. Award Subject to Company Clawback or Recoupment. The Option shall be subject to clawback or recoupment pursuant to any compensation clawback or recoupment policy adopted by the
Board or required by law during the term of your employment or other Service with the Company that is applicable to executive officers, employees, directors or other remedies available under such policy and applicable law may require the cancelation
of your Option (whether vested or unvested) and the recoupment of any gains realized with respect to your Option. 
 This Agreement and the
Plan constitute the entire understanding between you and the Company regarding this Option. Any prior agreements, commitments or negotiations concerning this Option are superseded. This Agreement may be amended only by another written agreement
between the parties. 
 BY ACCEPTING THIS OPTION, YOU AGREE TO ALL OF THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS DESCRIBED ABOVE AND IN THE PLAN.

RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT 
 NIMBLE STORAGE, INC. 

2013 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN 
 You have been
granted Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) subject to the terms, restrictions and conditions of the Plan, the Notice of Restricted Stock Unit Award (the “Notice”) and this RSU Agreement. 

1. Settlement. Settlement of RSUs shall be made within 30 days following the applicable date of vesting under the vesting schedule set forth in
the Notice. Settlement of RSUs shall be in Shares. Settlement means the delivery of the Shares vested under an RSU. No fractional RSUs or rights for fractional Shares shall be created pursuant to this RSU Agreement. 

2. No Stockholder Rights. Unless and until such time as Shares are issued in settlement of vested RSUs, you shall have no ownership of the
Shares allocated to the RSUs and shall have no right dividends or to vote such Shares. 
 3. Dividend Equivalents. Dividends, if any (whether
in cash or Shares), shall not be credited to you. 
 4. No Transfer. RSUs may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated, or
otherwise disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution or court order or unless otherwise permitted by the Committee on a case-by-case basis. 

5. Termination. If your Service terminates for any reason, all unvested RSUs shall be forfeited to the Company forthwith, and all rights you
have to such RSUs shall immediately terminate. In case of any dispute as to whether your termination of Service has occurred, the Committee shall have sole discretion to determine whether such termination has occurred and the effective date of such
termination. 
 6. Tax Consequences. You acknowledge that there will be tax consequences upon settlement of the RSUs or disposition of the
Shares, if any, received in connection therewith, and you should consult a tax adviser regarding your tax obligations prior to such settlement or disposition in the jurisdiction where you are subject to tax. 

7. Withholding Taxes and Stock Withholding. Regardless of any action the Company or your actual employer (the
“Employer”) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), you acknowledge that the ultimate
liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by you is and remains your responsibility and that the Company and/or the Employer (1) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with
any aspect of the award, including the settlement of the RSUs, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such settlement and the receipt of any dividends; and (2) do not commit to structure the terms of the award or any aspect of the
RSUs to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related Items. You acknowledge that if you are subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction, the Company and/or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related
Items in more than one jurisdiction. 
 Prior to the settlement of your RSUs, you shall pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or
the Employer to satisfy all withholding and payment on account obligations of the Company and/or the Employer. In this regard, you authorize the Company and/or the Employer to withhold all applicable Tax-Related Items legally payable by you from
your wages or other cash compensation paid to you by the Company and/or the Employer. With the Company’s consent, these arrangements may also include, if permissible under local law, (a) withholding Shares that otherwise would be issued to
you when your RSUs are settled, provided that the Company only withholds the amount of Shares necessary to satisfy the minimum statutory withholding amount, (b) having the Company withhold taxes from the proceeds of the sale of the Shares,
either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on your behalf and you hereby authorize 

  
 46 

 
such sales by this authorization), (c) your payment of a cash amount, or (d) any other arrangement approved by the Company; all under such rules as may be established by the Committee
and in compliance with the Company’s Insider Trading Policy and 10b5-1 Trading Plan Policy, if applicable; provided however, that if you are a Section 16 officer of the Company under the Exchange Act, then the Committee (as constituted in
accordance with Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act) shall establish the method of withholding from alternatives (a)-(d) above, and the Committee shall establish the method prior to the Tax-Related Items withholding event. The Fair Market Value
of these Shares, determined as of the effective date when taxes otherwise would have been withheld in cash, will be applied as a credit against the withholding taxes. You shall pay to the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that
the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold as a result of your participation in the Plan or your purchase of Shares that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. Finally, you acknowledge that the Company has no obligation
to deliver Shares to you until you have satisfied the obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items as described in this Section. 
 8.

9. Entire Agreement; Enforcement of Rights. This RSU Agreement, the Plan and the Notice constitute the entire agreement and understanding of the
parties relating to the subject matter herein and supersede all prior discussions between them. Any prior agreements, commitments or negotiations concerning the purchase of the Shares hereunder are superseded. No modification of or amendment to this
RSU Agreement, nor any waiver of any rights under this RSU Agreement, shall be effective unless in writing and signed by the parties to this RSU Agreement. The failure by either party to enforce any rights under this RSU Agreement shall not be
construed as a waiver of any rights of such party. 
 10. Compliance with Laws and Regulations. The issuance of Shares will be subject to and
conditioned upon compliance by the Company and you with all applicable state, federal and foreign laws and regulations and with all applicable requirements of any stock exchange or automated quotation system on which the Company’s Common Stock
may be listed or quoted at the time of such issuance or transfer. The Shares issued pursuant to this RSU Agreement shall be endorsed with appropriate legends, if any, determined by the Company. 

11. Governing Law; Severability. If one or more provisions of this RSU Agreement are held to be unenforceable under applicable law, the parties
agree to renegotiate such provision in good faith. In the event that the parties cannot reach a mutually agreeable and enforceable replacement for such provision, then (i) such provision shall be excluded from this RSU Agreement, (ii) the
balance of this RSU Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and (iii) the balance of this RSU Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms. This RSU Agreement and all acts and transactions pursuant
hereto and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law. For purposes of litigating any
dispute that may arise directly or indirectly from the Plan, the Notice and this RSU Agreement, the parties hereby submit and consent to litigation in the exclusive jurisdiction of the State of California and agree that any such litigation shall be
conducted only in the courts of California or the federal courts of the United States for the Northern District of California and no other courts. 
 11.
No Rights as Employee, Director or Consultant. Nothing in this RSU Agreement shall affect in any manner whatsoever the right or power of the Company, or a Parent or Subsidiary of the Company, to terminate your Service, for any reason,
with or without Cause. 
 12. Consent to Electronic Delivery of All Plan Documents and Disclosures. By acceptance of this RSU, you consent to
the electronic delivery of the Notice, this RSU Agreement, the Plan, account statements, Plan prospectuses required by the Securities and Exchange Commission, U.S. financial reports of the Company, and 

  
 47 

 
all other documents that the Company is required to deliver to its security holders (including, without limitation, annual reports and proxy statements) or other communications or information
related to the RSU. Electronic delivery may include the delivery of a link to a Company intranet or the internet site of a third party involved in administering the Plan, the delivery of the document via e-mail or such other delivery determined at
the Company’s discretion. You acknowledge that you may receive from the Company a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically at no cost if you contact the Company by telephone, through a postal service or electronic mail. You further
acknowledge that you will be provided with a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically if electronic delivery fails; similarly, you understand that you must provide on request to the Company or any designated third party a paper copy of
any documents delivered electronically if electronic delivery fails. Also, you understand that your consent may be revoked or changed, including any change in the electronic mail address to which documents are delivered (if you have provided an
electronic mail address), at any time by notifying the Company of such revised or revoked consent by telephone, postal service or electronic mail. Finally, you understand that you are not required to consent to electronic delivery. 

13. Code Section 409A. For purposes of this RSU Agreement, a termination of employment will be determined consistent with the rules
relating to a “separation from service” as defined in Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code and the regulations thereunder (“Section 409A”). Notwithstanding anything else provided herein, to the extent any
payments provided under this RSU Agreement in connection with your termination of employment constitute deferred compensation subject to Section 409A, and you are deemed at the time of such termination of employment to be a “specified
employee” under Section 409A, then such payment shall not be made or commence until the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six-month period measured from your separation from service from the Company or (ii) the date of your
death following such a separation from service; provided, however, that such deferral shall only be effected to the extent required to avoid adverse tax treatment to you including, without limitation, the additional tax for which you would otherwise
be liable under Section 409A(a)(1)(B) in the absence of such a deferral. To the extent any payment under this RSU Agreement may be classified as a “short-term deferral” within the meaning of Section 409A, such payment shall be
deemed a short-term deferral, even if it may also qualify for an exemption from Section 409A under another provision of Section 409A. Payments pursuant to this section are intended to constitute separate payments for purposes of
Section 1.409A-2(b)(2) of the Treasury Regulations. 
 14. Award Subject to Company Clawback or Recoupment. The RSU shall be subject to
clawback or recoupment pursuant to any compensation clawback or recoupment policy adopted by the Board or required by law during the term of your employment or other Service with the Company that is applicable to executive officers, Employees,
Directors or other service providers of the Company, and in addition to any other remedies available under such policy and applicable law may require the cancellation of your RSU (whether vested or unvested) and the recoupment of any gains realized
with respect to your RSU. 
 BY ACCEPTING THIS RSU, YOU AGREE TO ALL OF THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS DESCRIBED ABOVE AND IN THE PLAN.

RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT (INTERNATIONAL) 
 NIMBLE STORAGE, INC. 

2013 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN 
 You have been
granted Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) subject to the terms, restrictions and conditions of the Plan, the Notice of Restricted Stock Unit Award (the “Notice”) and this RSU Agreement. 

1. Settlement. Settlement of RSUs shall be made within 30 days following the applicable date of vesting under the vesting schedule set forth in
the Notice. Settlement of RSUs shall be in Shares. Settlement means the delivery of the Shares vested under an RSU. No fractional RSUs or rights for fractional Shares shall be created pursuant to this RSU Agreement. 

2. No Stockholder Rights. Unless and until such time as Shares are issued in settlement of vested RSUs, you shall have no ownership of the
Shares allocated to the RSUs and shall have no right dividends or to vote such Shares. 
 3. Dividend Equivalents. Dividends, if any (whether
in cash or Shares), shall not be credited to you. 
 4. No Transfer. RSUs may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated, or
otherwise disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution or court order or unless otherwise permitted by the Committee on a case-by-case basis. 

5. Termination. If your Service terminates for any reason, all unvested RSUs shall be forfeited to the Company forthwith, and all rights you
have to such RSUs shall immediately terminate. In case of any dispute as to whether your termination of Service has occurred, the Committee shall have sole discretion to determine whether such termination has occurred and the effective date of such
termination. 
 6. Tax Consequences. You acknowledge that there will be tax consequences upon settlement of the RSUs or disposition of the
Shares, if any, received in connection therewith, and you should consult a tax adviser regarding your tax obligations prior to such settlement or disposition in the jurisdiction where you are subject to tax. 

7. Withholding Taxes and Stock Withholding. Regardless of any action the Company or your actual employer (the
“Employer”) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), you acknowledge that the ultimate
liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by you is and remains your responsibility and that the Company and/or 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 the settlement of the RSUs, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such settlement and the receipt of any dividends; and (b) do not commit to structure the terms of the award or any aspect of the
RSUs to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related Items. You acknowledge that if you are subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction, the Company and/or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related
Items in more than one jurisdiction. 
 Prior to the settlement of your RSUs, you shall pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or
the Employer to satisfy all withholding and payment on account obligations of the Company and/or the Employer. In this regard, you authorize the Company and/or the Employer to withhold all applicable Tax-Related Items legally payable by you from
your wages or other cash compensation paid to you by the Company and/or the Employer. With the Company’s consent, these arrangements may also include, if permissible under local law, (a) withholding Shares that otherwise would be issued to
you when your RSUs are settled, provided that the Company only withholds the amount of Shares necessary to satisfy the minimum statutory withholding amount, (b) having the Company withhold taxes from the proceeds of the sale of the Shares,
either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on your behalf and you hereby authorize 

  
 51 

 
such sales by this authorization), (c) your payment of a cash amount, or (d) any other arrangement approved by the Company; all under such rules as may be established by the Committee
and in compliance with the Company’s Insider Trading Policy and 10b5-1 Trading Plan Policy, if applicable; provided however, that if you are a Section 16 officer of the Company under the Exchange Act, then the Committee (as constituted in
accordance with Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act) shall establish the method of withholding from alternatives (a)-(d) above, and the Committee shall establish the method prior to the Tax-Related Items withholding event. The Fair Market Value
of these Shares, determined as of the effective date when taxes otherwise would have been withheld in cash, will be applied as a credit against the withholding taxes. You shall pay to the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that
the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold as a result of your participation in the Plan or your purchase of Shares that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. Finally, you acknowledge that the Company has no obligation
to deliver Shares to you until you have satisfied the obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items as described in this Section. 
 8.
Acknowledgement. The Company and you agree that the RSUs are granted under and governed by the Notice, this RSU Agreement and the provisions of the Plan. You: (a) acknowledge receipt of a copy of the Plan prospectus,
(b) represent that you have carefully read and are familiar with their provisions, and (c) hereby accept the RSUs subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth herein and those set forth in the Notice. 

9. Entire Agreement; Enforcement of Rights. This RSU Agreement (including the Non-U.S. Addendum), the Plan and the Notice constitute the entire
agreement and understanding of the parties relating to the subject matter herein and supersede all prior discussions between them. Any prior agreements, commitments or negotiations concerning the purchase of the Shares hereunder are superseded. No
modification of or amendment to this RSU Agreement, nor any waiver of any rights under this RSU Agreement, shall be effective unless in writing and signed by the parties to this RSU Agreement. The failure by either party to enforce any rights under
this RSU Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of any rights of such party. 
 10. Compliance with Laws and Regulations. The issuance
of Shares will be subject to and conditioned upon compliance by the Company and you with all applicable state, federal and foreign laws and regulations and with all applicable requirements of any stock exchange or automated quotation system on which
the Company’s Common Stock may be listed or quoted at the time of such issuance or transfer. The Shares issued pursuant to this RSU Agreement shall be endorsed with appropriate legends, if any, determined by the Company. 

11. Governing Law; Severability. If one or more provisions of this RSU Agreement are held to be unenforceable under applicable law, the parties
agree to renegotiate such provision in good faith. In the event that the parties cannot reach a mutually agreeable and enforceable replacement for such provision, then (a) such provision shall be excluded from this RSU Agreement, (b) the
balance of this RSU Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and (c) the balance of this Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms. This RSU Agreement and all acts and transactions pursuant hereto
and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law. For purposes of litigating any dispute
that may arise directly or indirectly from the Plan, the Notice and this RSU Agreement, the parties hereby submit and consent to litigation in the exclusive jurisdiction of the State of California and agree that any such litigation shall be
conducted only in the courts of California or the federal courts of the United States for the Northern District of California and no other courts. 
 12.
No Rights as Employee, Director or Consultant. Nothing in this RSU Agreement shall affect in any manner whatsoever the right or power of the Company, or a Parent or Subsidiary of the Company, to terminate your Service, for any reason,
with or without Cause, subject to applicable law. 
 13. Consent to Electronic Delivery of All Plan Documents and Disclosures. By acceptance
of the RSUs, you consent to the electronic delivery of the Notice, this RSU Agreement, the Plan, account statements, Plan prospectuses required by the Securities and Exchange Commission, U.S. financial reports of the Company, and 

  
 52 

 
all other documents that the Company is required to deliver to its security holders (including, without limitation, annual reports and proxy statements) or other communications or information
related to the RSU. Electronic delivery may include the delivery of a link to a Company intranet or the internet site of a third party involved in administering the Plan, the delivery of the document via e-mail or such other delivery determined at
the Company’s discretion. You acknowledge that you may receive from the Company a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically at no cost if you contact the Company by telephone, through a postal service or electronic mail. You further
acknowledge that you will be provided with a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically if electronic delivery fails; similarly, you understand that you must provide on request to the Company or any designated third party a paper copy of
any documents delivered electronically if electronic delivery fails. Also, you understand that your consent may be revoked or changed, including any change in the electronic mail address to which documents are delivered (if you have provided an
electronic mail address), at any time by notifying the Company of such revised or revoked consent by telephone, postal service or electronic mail. Finally, you understand that you are not required to consent to electronic delivery. 

14. Code Section 409A. To the extent applicable, for purposes of this RSU Agreement, a termination of employment will be determined
consistent with the rules relating to a “separation from service” as defined in Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code and the regulations thereunder (“Section 409A”). Notwithstanding anything else provided herein,
to the extent any payments provided under this Agreement in connection with your termination of employment constitute deferred compensation subject to Section 409A, and you are deemed at the time of such termination of employment to be a
“specified employee” under Section 409A, then such payment shall not be made or commence until the earlier of (a) the expiration of the six-month period measured from your separation from service from the Company or (b) the
date of your death following such a separation from service; provided, however, that such deferral shall only be effected to the extent required to avoid adverse tax treatment to you including, without limitation, the additional tax for which you
would otherwise be liable under Section 409A(a)(1)(B) in the absence of such a deferral. To the extent any payment under this RSU Agreement may be classified as a “short-term deferral” within the meaning of Section 409A, such
payment shall be deemed a short-term deferral, even if it may also qualify for an exemption from Section 409A under another provision of Section 409A. Payments pursuant to this section are intended to constitute separate payments for
purposes of Section 1.409A-2(b)(2) of the Treasury Regulations. 
 15. Award Subject to Company Clawback or Recoupment. To the extent
permitted by applicable law, the RSUs shall be subject to clawback or recoupment pursuant to any compensation clawback or recoupment policy adopted by the Board or required by law during the term of your employment or other Service with the Company
that is applicable to executive officers, Employees, Directors or other service providers of the Company, and in addition to any other remedies available under such policy and applicable law may require the cancellation of your RSUs (whether vested
or unvested) and the recoupment of any gains realized with respect to your RSUs. 
  

	16.	Nature of Grant. In accepting the grant, you acknowledge 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 RSUs is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of RSUs, or
benefits in lieu of RSUs, even if RSUs have been granted repeatedly in the past; 
 (c) all decisions with respect to future RSUs grants, if
any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company; 
 (d) you are voluntarily participating in the Plan; 

  
 53 

 (e) the RSUs and the shares of Common Stock subject to the RSUs 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; 

(f) the RSUs and the shares of Common Stock subject to the RSUs are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation; 

(g) the RSUs and the shares of Common Stock subject to the RSUs are not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purposes,
including, but not limited to, calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, 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 Subsidiary or Affiliate; 

(h) the RSUs and your participation in the Plan will not be interpreted to form an employment contract or relationship with the Company or any
Subsidiary or Affiliate; 
 (i) the future value of the underlying shares of Common Stock is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty;

 (j) in consideration of the grant of the RSUs, no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from forfeiture of the RSUs
resulting from termination of your Service with the Company or the Employer (for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of local labor laws) and you irrevocably release the Company and the Employer from any such claim that may arise; if,
notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen, you shall be deemed irrevocably to have waive any entitlement to pursue such claim; 

(k) in the event of termination of your Service (whether or not in breach of local labor laws), your right to vest in the RSUs under the Plan,
if any, will terminate effective as of the date that you are no longer actively providing Services and will not be extended by any notice period mandated under local law (e.g., active service would not include a period of “garden
leave” or similar period pursuant to local law); the Board/Committee shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when you are no longer actively providing Services for purposes of the RSUs; notwithstanding the foregoing, if your Service
terminates due to your death, the RSUs will be fully vested as of the date of death; and 
 (l) the RSUs and the benefits under the Plan, if
any, will not automatically transfer to another company in the case of a merger, take-over or transfer of liability. 
 17. Data Privacy.
(a) You hereby explicitly and unambiguously consent to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of your personal data as described in this RSU Agreement and any other award materials by and among, as applicable, the
Employer, the Company, and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing your participation in the Plan.

(b) You understand that the Company and the Employer may hold certain personal information about you, including but not limited to, your
name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any shares of Common Stock or directorships held in the Company, details of all awards or any other
entitlement to shares of Common Stock granted, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in your favor, for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Plan (“Data”).

(c) You understand that Data will be transferred to any third parties assisting the Company with the implementation, administration and
management of the Plan. You understand that the recipients of the Data may be located in the United States or elsewhere, and that the recipients’ country (e.g., the United States) may have different data privacy laws and protections than your
country. You understand that you

  
 54 

 
may request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Data by contacting your local human resources representative. You authorize the Company and any other possible
recipients which may assist the Company (presently or in the future) with implementing, administering and managing the Plan to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the sole purpose of implementing,
administering and managing your participation in the Plan. You understand that Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage your participation in the Plan. You understand that you may, at any time, view Data,
request additional information about the storage and processing of Data, require any necessary amendments to Data or refuse or withdraw the consents herein, in any case without cost, by contacting in writing your local human resources
representative. You understand, however, that refusing or withdrawing your consent may affect your ability to participate in the Plan. For more information on the consequences of your refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, you understand that
you may contact your local human resources representative.
 18. Non-U.S. Addendum. Notwithstanding any provisions in this RSU
Agreement, the RSUs shall be subject to the special terms and conditions set forth in any addendum to this RSU Agreement (the “Non-U.S. Addendum”) for your country. Moreover, if you relocate to one of the countries included
in the Non-U.S. Addendum, the special terms and conditions for 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. The Non-U.S. Addendum constitutes part of this RSU Agreement. 
 BY ACCEPTING THIS RSU, YOU AGREE
TO ALL OF THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS DESCRIBED ABOVE AND IN THE PLAN.

 RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT — CEO FORM 

NIMBLE STORAGE, INC. 

2013 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN 
 You have been
granted Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) subject to the terms, restrictions and conditions of the Plan, the Notice of Restricted Stock Unit Award (the “Notice”) and this RSU Agreement. 

1. Settlement. Settlement of RSUs shall be made within 30 days following the applicable date of vesting under the vesting schedule set forth in
the Notice. Settlement of RSUs shall be in Shares. Settlement means the delivery of the Shares vested under an RSU. No fractional RSUs or rights for fractional Shares shall be created pursuant to this RSU Agreement. 

2. No Stockholder Rights. Unless and until such time as Shares are issued in settlement of vested RSUs, you shall have no ownership of the
Shares allocated to the RSUs and shall have no right dividends or to vote such Shares. 
 3. Dividend Equivalents. Dividends, if any (whether
in cash or Shares), shall not be credited to you. 
 4. No Transfer. RSUs may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated, or
otherwise disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution or court order or unless otherwise permitted by the Committee on a case-by-case basis. 

5. Termination. If your Service terminates for any reason, all unvested RSUs shall be forfeited to the Company forthwith, and all rights you
have to such RSUs shall immediately terminate. In case of any dispute as to whether your termination of Service has occurred, the Committee shall have sole discretion to determine whether such termination has occurred and the effective date of such
termination. 
 6. Tax Consequences. You acknowledge that there will be tax consequences upon settlement of the RSUs or disposition of the
Shares, if any, received in connection therewith, and you should consult a tax adviser regarding your tax obligations prior to such settlement or disposition in the jurisdiction where you are subject to tax. 

7. Withholding Taxes and Stock Withholding. Regardless of any action the Company or your actual employer (the
“Employer”) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), you acknowledge that the ultimate
liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by you is and remains your responsibility and that the Company and/or the Employer (1) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with
any aspect of the award, including the settlement of the RSUs, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such settlement and the receipt of any dividends; and (2) do not commit to structure the terms of the award or any aspect of the
RSUs to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related Items. You acknowledge that if you are subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction, the Company and/or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related
Items in more than one jurisdiction. 
 Prior to the settlement of your RSUs, you shall pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or
the Employer to satisfy all withholding and payment on account obligations of the Company and/or the Employer. In this regard, you authorize the Company and/or the Employer to withhold all applicable Tax-Related Items legally payable by you from
your wages or other cash compensation paid to you by the Company and/or the Employer. With the Company’s consent, these arrangements may also include, if permissible under local law, (a) withholding Shares that otherwise would be issued to
you when your RSUs are settled, provided that the Company only withholds the amount of Shares necessary to satisfy the minimum statutory withholding amount, (b) having the Company withhold taxes from the proceeds of the sale of the Shares,
either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on your behalf and you hereby authorize 

  
 59 

 
such sales by this authorization), (c) your payment of a cash amount, or (d) any other arrangement approved by the Company; all under such rules as may be established by the Committee
and in compliance with the Company’s Insider Trading Policy and 10b5-1 Trading Plan Policy, if applicable; provided however, that if you are a Section 16 officer of the Company under the Exchange Act, then the Committee (as constituted in
accordance with Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act) shall establish the method of withholding from alternatives (a)-(d) above, and the Committee shall establish the method prior to the Tax-Related Items withholding event. The Fair Market Value
of these Shares, determined as of the effective date when taxes otherwise would have been withheld in cash, will be applied as a credit against the withholding taxes. You shall pay to the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that
the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold as a result of your participation in the Plan or your purchase of Shares that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. Finally, you acknowledge that the Company has no obligation
to deliver Shares to you until you have satisfied the obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items as described in this Section. 
 8.
Acknowledgement. The Company and you agree that the RSUs are granted under and governed by the Notice, this RSU Agreement and the provisions of the Plan. You: (i) acknowledge receipt of a copy of the Plan prospectus,
(ii) represent that you have carefully read and are familiar with their provisions, and (iii) hereby accept the RSUs subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth herein and those set forth in the Notice. 

9. Entire Agreement; Enforcement of Rights. This RSU Agreement, the Plan and the Notice constitute the entire agreement and understanding of the
parties relating to the subject matter herein and supersede all prior discussions between them. Any prior agreements, commitments or negotiations concerning the purchase of the Shares hereunder are superseded. No modification of or amendment to this
RSU Agreement, nor any waiver of any rights under this RSU Agreement, shall be effective unless in writing and signed by the parties to this RSU Agreement. The failure by either party to enforce any rights under this RSU Agreement shall not be
construed as a waiver of any rights of such party. 
 10. Compliance with Laws and Regulations. The issuance of Shares will be subject to and
conditioned upon compliance by the Company and you with all applicable state, federal and foreign laws and regulations and with all applicable requirements of any stock exchange or automated quotation system on which the Company’s Common Stock
may be listed or quoted at the time of such issuance or transfer. The Shares issued pursuant to this RSU Agreement shall be endorsed with appropriate legends, if any, determined by the Company. 

11. Governing Law; Severability. If one or more provisions of this RSU Agreement are held to be unenforceable under applicable law, the parties
agree to renegotiate such provision in good faith. In the event that the parties cannot reach a mutually agreeable and enforceable replacement for such provision, then (i) such provision shall be excluded from this RSU Agreement, (ii) the
balance of this RSU Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and (iii) the balance of this RSU Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms. This RSU Agreement and all acts and transactions pursuant
hereto and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law. For purposes of litigating any
dispute that may arise directly or indirectly from the Plan, the Notice and this RSU Agreement, the parties hereby submit and consent to litigation in the exclusive jurisdiction of the State of California and agree that any such litigation shall be
conducted only in the courts of California or the federal courts of the United States for the Northern District of California and no other courts. 
 11.
No Rights as Employee, Director or Consultant. Nothing in this RSU Agreement shall affect in any manner whatsoever the right or power of the Company, or a Parent or Subsidiary of the Company, to terminate your Service, for any reason,
with or without Cause. 
 12. Consent to Electronic Delivery of All Plan Documents and Disclosures. By acceptance of this RSU, you consent to
the electronic delivery of the Notice, this RSU Agreement, the Plan, account statements, Plan prospectuses required by the Securities and Exchange Commission, U.S. financial reports of the Company, and 

  
 60 

 
all other documents that the Company is required to deliver to its security holders (including, without limitation, annual reports and proxy statements) or other communications or information
related to the RSU. Electronic delivery may include the delivery of a link to a Company intranet or the internet site of a third party involved in administering the Plan, the delivery of the document via e-mail or such other delivery determined at
the Company’s discretion. You acknowledge that you may receive from the Company a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically at no cost if you contact the Company by telephone, through a postal service or electronic mail. You further
acknowledge that you will be provided with a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically if electronic delivery fails; similarly, you understand that you must provide on request to the Company or any designated third party a paper copy of
any documents delivered electronically if electronic delivery fails. Also, you understand that your consent may be revoked or changed, including any change in the electronic mail address to which documents are delivered (if you have provided an
electronic mail address), at any time by notifying the Company of such revised or revoked consent by telephone, postal service or electronic mail. Finally, you understand that you are not required to consent to electronic delivery. 

13. Code Section 409A. For purposes of this RSU Agreement, a termination of employment will be determined consistent with the rules
relating to a “separation from service” as defined in Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code and the regulations thereunder (“Section 409A”). Notwithstanding anything else provided herein, to the extent any
payments provided under this RSU Agreement in connection with your termination of employment constitute deferred compensation subject to Section 409A, and you are deemed at the time of such termination of employment to be a “specified
employee” under Section 409A, then such payment shall not be made or commence until the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six-month period measured from your separation from service from the Company or (ii) the date of your
death following such a separation from service; provided, however, that such deferral shall only be effected to the extent required to avoid adverse tax treatment to you including, without limitation, the additional tax for which you would otherwise
be liable under Section 409A(a)(1)(B) in the absence of such a deferral. To the extent any payment under this RSU Agreement may be classified as a “short-term deferral” within the meaning of Section 409A, such payment shall be
deemed a short-term deferral, even if it may also qualify for an exemption from Section 409A under another provision of Section 409A. Payments pursuant to this section are intended to constitute separate payments for purposes of
Section 1.409A-2(b)(2) of the Treasury Regulations. 
 14. Award Subject to Company Clawback or Recoupment. The RSU shall be subject to
clawback or recoupment pursuant to any compensation clawback or recoupment policy adopted by the Board or required by law during the term of your employment or other Service with the Company that is applicable to executive officers, Employees,
Directors or other service providers of the Company, and in addition to any other remedies available under such policy and applicable law may require the cancellation of your RSU (whether vested or unvested) and the recoupment of any gains realized
with respect to your RSU. 
 BY ACCEPTING THIS RSU, YOU AGREE TO ALL OF THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS DESCRIBED ABOVE AND IN THE PLAN.

 UK UNAPPROVED SUB-PLAN 

under the 
 NIMBLE
STORAGE, INC. 
 2013 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN 

This Sub-Plan, adopted under the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan of Nimble Storage, Inc. (the “Plan”) by the Compensation
Committee of the Board pursuant to section 4.5 of the Plan, is effective as of , 2013. 
  

	1.	Purpose. The primary purpose of this Sub-Plan is to amend those provisions of the Plan that are required to be amended in order for grants under the Plan, and communications concerning those grants, to be exempt
from the provisions of the United Kingdom Financial Services and Markets Act 2000. (For the purposes of this Sub-Plan, the term “awards” shall mean Awards that are granted under this Sub-Plan.) 

 

	2.	Restricted Availability of Awards. This Sub-Plan shall be used solely to grant awards to employees of the Company or any member of the same group as the Company resident and providing services in the United
Kingdom. (The term “group” in relation to the Company shall bear the meaning given to such term in section 421 of the United Kingdom Financial Services and Markets Act 2000.) 

 

	3.	Restricted Delivery of Awards. Payments of benefits under this Sub-Plan shall be made only in Common Stock. For the avoidance of doubt, and without limitation, no cash settlement of awards (including dividends or
dividend equivalents in cash) shall be permissible. 

  

	4.	Withholding of Taxes. All awards will be subject to tax withholding as described in section 13 of the Plan but, for the purposes of this Sub-Plan, references to “tax” shall be read and construed as
including, without limitation, United Kingdom income tax and primary class 1 (employee’s) national insurance contributions that the Participant’s employer is liable to account for and, if so agreed between the Company and the Participant,
secondary class 1 (employer’s) national insurance contributions that the Participant’s employer is liable to account for. 

  

	5.	Conditions of Delivery or Vesting of Shares. It is a further condition of delivery of any Shares pursuant to the exercise of an Option or the vesting of a Restricted Stock Award or Restricted Stock Unit that the
Participant will, if required to do so by the Company, enter into a joint election under section 431(1) of the Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003 of the United Kingdom (“ITEPA”) in the case of an Option at the time of exercise, or
section 430(1) of ITEPA in the case of a Restricted Stock Award or Restricted Stock Unit at the time of vesting, the effect of which is that the shares of Common Stock will be treated as if they were not restricted securities and that sections 425
to 430 of ITEPA will not apply to those shares. 

  

	6.	Restricted Transfer of Rights. The persons to whom awards, or interests therein, under this Sub-Plan may be transferred, whether by will or the laws of descent and distribution under section 14 of the Plan or
otherwise, shall be limited to a Participant’s children and step-children under the age of eighteen, spouses and surviving spouses and civil partners (within the meaning of the United Kingdom Civil Partnerships Act 2004) and surviving partners.

2013 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN 
 You have been

of Service. In no event shall this SAR be exercised later than the Expiration Date set forth in the Notice. 
 (b) Death; Disability.
If you die before your Service terminates, then this SAR will expire at the close of business at Company headquarters on the date 18 months after the date of death. If your Service terminates because of your Disability, then this SAR will expire at
the close of business at Company headquarters on the date 12 months after your termination date. 
 (c) No Notice. You are
responsible for keeping track of these exercise periods following your termination of Service for any reason. The Company will not provide further notice of such periods. In no event shall this Option be exercised later than the Expiration Date set
forth in the Notice of Grant. 
 3. Vesting Rights. Subject to the applicable provisions of the Plan and this Agreement, this
SAR may be exercised, in whole or in part, in accordance with the schedule set forth in the Notice. 
 4. Exercise of SAR.

Agreement. This SAR may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share. 
 (b) Method of Exercise. This SAR is exercisable by delivery of
an exercise notice in a form specified by the Company (the “Exercise Notice”), which shall state the election to exercise the SAR, the number of Shares subject to the SAR to be exercised, and such other representations and
agreements as may be required by the Company pursuant to the provisions of the Plan. The Exercise Notice shall be delivered in person, by mail, via electronic mail or facsimile or by other authorized method to the Secretary of the Company or other
person designated by the Company. This SAR shall be deemed to be exercised upon receipt by the Company of such fully executed Exercise Notice and any applicable tax withholding due upon exercise of the SAR. 

(c) No Shares shall be issued pursuant to the exercise of this SAR unless such issuance and exercise complies with all relevant provisions of
law and the requirements of any stock exchange or quotation service upon which the Shares are then listed. Assuming such compliance, for income tax purposes the Exercised Shares shall be considered transferred to you on the date the SAR is exercised
with respect to such Exercised Shares. 

  
 79 

 5. Non-Transferability of SAR. This SAR may not be transferred in any manner other
than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution or court order and may be exercised during your lifetime only by you unless otherwise permitted by the Committee on a case-by-case basis. The terms of the Plan and this Agreement shall be
binding upon your executors, administrators, heirs, successors and assign. 
 6. Term of SAR. This SAR shall in any event
expire on the expiration date set forth in the Notice, which date is 10 years after the Date of Grant. 
 7. Tax Consequences.
You should consult a tax adviser for tax consequences relating to this SAR in their respective jurisdiction. YOU SHOULD CONSULT A TAX ADVISER BEFORE EXERCISING THIS SAR. If you are an Employee or a former Employee, the Company may be required to
withhold from his or her compensation an amount equal to the minimum amount the Company is required to withhold for income and employment taxes or collect from you and pay to the applicable taxing authorities an amount in cash equal to a percentage
of this compensation income at the time of exercise. 
 8. Withholding Taxes and Stock Withholding. Regardless of any action
the Company or your actual employer (the “Employer”) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), you
acknowledge that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by you is and remains your responsibility and that the Company and/or the Employer (1) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any
Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the SAR, including the grant, vesting or exercise of the SAR, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such exercise and the receipt of any dividends; and (2) do not commit to
structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the SAR to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related Items. 
 Prior to exercise of the SAR, you
shall pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all withholding and payment on account obligations of the Company and/or the Employer. In this regard, you authorize the Company and/or the Employer
to withhold all applicable Tax-Related Items legally payable by you from your wages or other cash compensation paid to you by the Company and/or the Employer. With the Company’s consent, these arrangements may also include, if permissible under
local law, (a) withholding Shares that otherwise would be issued to you when you exercise this SAR, provided that the Company only withholds the amount of Shares necessary to satisfy the minimum statutory withholding amount, (b) having the
Company withhold taxes from the proceeds of the sale of the Shares, either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on your behalf pursuant to this authorization), or (c) any other arrangement approved by
the Company. The Fair Market Value of these Shares, determined as of the effective date of the SAR exercise, will be applied as a credit against the withholding taxes. Finally, you shall pay to the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related
Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold as a result of your participation in the Plan or your purchase of Shares that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to honor the exercise and
refuse to deliver the Shares if you fail to comply with your obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items as described in this section. 

9. Acknowledgement. The Company and you agree that the SAR is granted under and governed by the Notice, this Agreement and by
the provisions of the Plan (incorporated herein by reference). You: (i) acknowledge receipt of a copy of the Plan and the Plan prospectus, (ii) represent that you have carefully read and is familiar with their provisions, and
(iii) hereby accept the SAR subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth herein and those set forth in the Plan and the Notice. 

10. Entire Agreement; Enforcement of Rights. This Agreement, the Plan and the Notice constitute the entire agreement and
understanding of the parties relating to the subject matter herein and supersede all prior discussions between them. Any prior agreements, commitments or negotiations concerning the purchase of the Shares hereunder are superseded. No modification of
or amendment to this Agreement, nor any waiver of any rights under this Agreement, shall be effective unless in writing and signed by the parties to this Agreement. The failure by either party to enforce any rights under this Agreement shall not be
construed as a waiver of any rights of such party. 

  
 80 

 11. Compliance with Laws and Regulations. The issuance of Shares will be subject to
and conditioned upon compliance by the Company and you with all applicable state and federal laws and regulations and with all applicable requirements of any stock exchange or automated quotation system on which the Company’s Common Stock may
be listed or quoted at the time of such issuance or transfer. 
 12. Governing Law; Severability. If one or more provisions of
this Agreement are held to be unenforceable under applicable law, the parties agree to renegotiate such provision in good faith. In the event that the parties cannot reach a mutually agreeable and enforceable replacement for such provision, then
(i) such provision shall be excluded from this Agreement, (ii) the balance of this Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and (iii) the balance of this Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with
its terms. This Agreement and all acts and transactions pursuant hereto and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to
principles of conflicts of law. For purposes of litigating any dispute that may arise directly or indirectly from the Plan, the Notice and this Agreement, the parties hereby submit and consent to litigation in the exclusive jurisdiction of the State
of California and agree that any such litigation shall be conducted only in the courts of California or the federal courts of the United States for the Northern District of California and no other courts. 

13. No Rights as Employee, Director or Consultant. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect in any manner whatsoever the right or
power of the Company, or a Parent or Subsidiary of the Company, to terminate Participant’s Service, for any reason, with or without cause. 

14. Consent to Electronic Delivery of All Plan Documents and Disclosures. By your acceptance of this SAR, you consent to
the electronic delivery of the Notice of Grant, this Agreement, the Plan, account statements, Plan prospectuses required by the Securities and Exchange Commission, U.S. financial reports of the Company, and all other documents that the Company is
required to deliver to its security holders (including, without limitation, annual reports and proxy statements) or other communications or information related to the SAR. Electronic delivery may include the delivery of a link to a Company intranet
or the internet site of a third party involved in administering the Plan, the delivery of the document via e-mail or such other delivery determined at the Company’s discretion. You acknowledge that you may receive from the Company a paper copy
of any documents delivered electronically at no cost if you contact the Company by telephone, through a postal service or electronic mail at [insert email]. You further acknowledge that you will be provided with a paper copy of any documents
delivered electronically if electronic delivery fails; similarly, you understand that you must provide on request to the Company or any designated third party a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically if electronic delivery fails. Also,
you understand that your consent may be revoked or changed, including any change in the electronic mail address to which documents are delivered (if you have provided an electronic mail address), at any time by notifying the Company of such revised
or revoked consent by telephone, postal service or electronic mail at [insert email]. Finally, you understand that you are not required to consent to electronic delivery. 

15. Award Subject to Company Clawback or Recoupment. The SAR shall be subject to clawback or recoupment pursuant to any
compensation clawback or recoupment policy adopted by the Board or required by law during the term of your employment or other service with the Company that is applicable to executive officers, employees, directors or other service providers of the
Company, and in addition to any other remedies available under such policy and applicable law may require the cancelation of your SAR (whether vested or unvested) and the recoupment of any gains realized with respect to your SAR.

 2. Stockholder Rights. You shall have
no right to dividends or to vote Shares until you are recorded as the holder of such Shares on the stock records of the Company and its transfer agent. 

3. No-Transfer. Unvested Shares subject to your Stock Bonus Award shall not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated, or otherwise
disposed of by you or any person whose interest derives from your interest. “Unvested Shares” are Shares that have not yet vested pursuant to the terms of the vesting schedule set forth in the Notice. 

4. Termination. Upon your termination of Service for any reason, all Unvested Shares shall immediately be forfeited to the Company, and all of
your rights to such Unvested Shares shall immediately terminate as of your termination date. In case of any dispute as to whether a termination of Service has occurred, the Committee shall have sole discretion to determine whether such termination
has occurred and the effective date of such termination. 
 5. Tax Consequences. YOU SHOULD CONSULT A TAX ADVISER BEFORE ACQUIRING THE SHARES
IN THE JURISDICTION IN WHICH HE OR SHE IS SUBJECT TO TAX. Shares shall not be issued under this Agreement unless you arrangements acceptable to the Company to pay any withholding taxes that may be due as a result of the acquisition or vesting of
Shares. 
 6. Withholding Taxes. Regardless of any action the Company or your employer (the “Employer”) takes with
respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), you acknowledge that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by
you is and remains your responsibility and that the Company and/or your Employer (1) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Shares received under this award,
including the award or vesting of such Shares, the subsequent sale of Shares under this award and the receipt of any dividends; and (2) do not commit to structure the terms of the award to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related
Items. 
 No stock certificates will be released to you unless you have paid or made adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer
to satisfy all withholding and payment on account obligations of the Company and/or the Employer. In this regard, you authorize the Company and/or the Employer to withhold all applicable Tax-Related Items legally payable by you from your wages or
other cash compensation paid to you by the Company and/or your Employer. With the Company’s consent, these arrangements may also include, if permissible under local law, (a) withholding Shares that otherwise would be released when they
vest, provided that the Company only withholds the amount of Shares necessary to satisfy the minimum statutory withholding amount, (b) having the Company withhold taxes from the proceeds of the sale of the Shares, either through a voluntary
sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on your behalf and you hereby authorize such sales by this authorization), (c) your payment of a cash amount, or (d) any other arrangement approved by the Company; all under such

 RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT 

NIMBLE STORAGE, INC. 

2013 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN 

THIS RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of , 20 by and between Nimble Storage, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the “Company”), and (“Participant”) pursuant to the Company’s 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). Unless otherwise defined herein, the terms defined in
the Plan shall have the same meanings in this Agreement. 
 1. Sale of Stock. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, on the Purchase Date (as defined below) the Company will issue and sell to Participant, and Participant agrees to purchase from the Company, the number of Shares shown on the Notice of Restricted Stock Award (the
“Notice”) at a purchase price of $ per Share. The term “Shares” refers to the purchased Shares and all securities received in replacement of or in connection with the Shares pursuant to stock dividends or splits,
all securities received in replacement of the Shares in a recapitalization, merger, reorganization, exchange or the like, and all new, substituted or additional securities or other properties to which Participant is entitled by reason of
Participant’s ownership of the Shares. 
 2. Time and Place of Purchase. The purchase and sale of the Shares under this
Agreement shall occur at the principal office of the Company simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement by the parties, or on such other date as the Company and Participant shall agree (the “Purchase Date”). On the
Purchase Date, the Company will issue a stock certificate registered in Participant’s name, or uncertificated shares designated for the Participant in book entry form on the records of the Company’s transfer agent, representing the Shares
to be purchased by Participant against payment of the purchase price therefor by Participant by (a) check made payable to the Company, (b) cancellation of indebtedness of the Company to Participant, (c) Participant’s personal
Services that the Committee has determined have already been rendered to the Company and have a value not less than aggregate par value of the Shares to be issued Participant, or (d) a combination of the foregoing. 

3. Restrictions on Resale. By signing this Agreement, Participant agrees not to sell any Shares acquired pursuant to the Plan
and this Agreement at a time when applicable laws, regulations or Company or underwriter trading policies prohibit exercise or sale. This restriction will apply as long as Participant is providing Service to the Company or a Subsidiary of the
Company. 
 3.1 Repurchase Right on Termination Other Than for Cause. For the purposes of this Agreement, a
“Repurchase Event” shall mean an occurrence of one of the following: 
 (i) termination of
Participant’s Service, whether voluntary or involuntary and with or without cause; 
 (ii) resignation, retirement or death of
Participant; or 
 (iii) any attempted transfer by Participant of the Shares, or any interest therein, in violation of this
Agreement. 
 Upon the occurrence of a Repurchase Event, the Company shall have the right (but not an obligation) to purchase the Shares of Participant at a
price equal to the Purchase Price per Share (the “Repurchase Right”). The Repurchase Right shall lapse in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth in the Notice of Restricted Stock Award. For purposes of this Agreement,
“Unvested Shares” means Stock pursuant to which the Company’s Repurchase Right has not lapsed. 

  
 89 

 3.2 Exercise of Repurchase Right. Unless the Company provides written notice to
Participant within 90 days from the date of termination of Participant’s Service to the Company that the Company does not intend to exercise its Repurchase Right with respect to some or all of the Unvested Shares, the Repurchase Right shall be
deemed automatically exercised by the Company as of the 90th day following such termination, provided that the Company may notify Participant that it is exercising its Repurchase Right as of a date prior to such 90th day. Unless Participant is
otherwise notified by the Company pursuant to the preceding sentence that the Company does not intend to exercise its Repurchase Right as to some or all of the Unvested Shares, execution of this Agreement by Participant constitutes written notice to
Participant of the Company’s intention to exercise its Repurchase Right with respect to all Unvested Shares to which such Repurchase Right applies at the time of Participant’s termination of Service. The Company, at its choice, may satisfy
its payment obligation to Participant with respect to exercise of the Repurchase Right by either (A) delivering a check to Participant in the amount of the purchase price for the Unvested Shares being repurchased, or (B) in the event
Participant is indebted to the Company, canceling an amount of such indebtedness equal to the purchase price for the Unvested Shares being repurchased, or (C) by a combination of (A) and (B) so that the combined payment and
cancellation of indebtedness equals such purchase price. In the event of any deemed automatic exercise of the Repurchase Right by canceling an amount of such indebtedness equal to the purchase price for the Unvested Shares being repurchased, such
cancellation of indebtedness shall be deemed automatically to occur as of the 90th day following termination of Participant’s Service unless the Company otherwise satisfies its payment obligations. As a result of any repurchase of Unvested
Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Right, the Company shall become the legal and beneficial owner of the Unvested Shares being repurchased and shall have all rights and interest therein or related thereto, and the Company shall have the right to
transfer to its own name the number of Unvested Shares being repurchased by the Company, without further action by Participant. 
 3.3
Acceptance of Restrictions. Acceptance of the Shares shall constitute Participant’s agreement to such restrictions and the legending of his or her certificates or the notation in the Company’s direct registration system for
stock issuance and transfer of such restrictions and accompanying legends set forth in Section 4.1 with respect thereto. Notwithstanding such restrictions, however, so long as Participant is the holder of the Shares, or any portion thereof, he
or she shall be entitled to receive all dividends declared on and to vote the Shares and to all other rights of a stockholder with respect thereto. 

3.4 Non-Transferability of Unvested Shares. In addition to any other limitation on transfer created by applicable securities
laws or any other agreement between the Company and Participant, Participant may not transfer any Unvested Shares, or any interest therein, unless consented to in writing by a duly authorized representative of the Company. Any purported transfer is
void and of no effect, and no purported transferee thereof will be recognized as a holder of the Unvested Shares for any purpose whatsoever. Should such a transfer purport to occur, the Company may refuse to carry out the transfer on its books, set
aside the transfer, or exercise any other legal or equitable remedy. In the event the Company consents to a transfer of Unvested Shares, all transferees of Shares or any interest therein will receive and hold such Shares or interest subject to the
provisions of this Agreement, including, insofar as applicable, the Repurchase Right. In the event of any purchase by the Company hereunder where the Shares or interest are held by a transferee, the transferee shall be obligated, if requested by the
Company, to transfer the Shares or interest to the Participant for consideration equal to the amount to be paid by the Company hereunder. In the event the Repurchase Right is deemed exercised by the Company, the Company may deem any transferee to
have transferred the Shares or interest to Participant prior to their purchase by the Company, and payment of the purchase price by the Company to such transferee shall be deemed to satisfy Participant’s obligation to pay such transferee for
such Shares or interest, and also to satisfy the Company’s obligation to pay Participant for such Shares or interest. 

  
 90 

 3.5 Assignment. The Repurchase Right may be assigned by the Company in whole or in
part to any persons or organization. 
 4. Stop Transfer Orders. 

4.1 Stop-Transfer Notices. Participant agrees that, in order to ensure compliance with the restrictions referred to herein, the
Company may issue appropriate “stop transfer” instructions to its transfer agent, if any, and that, if the Company transfers its own securities, it may make appropriate notations to the same effect in its own records. 

4.2 Refusal to Transfer. The Company shall not be required (i) to transfer on its books any Shares that have been sold or
otherwise transferred in violation of any of the provisions of this Agreement or (ii) to treat as the owner or to accord the right to vote or pay dividends to any purchaser or other transferee to whom such Shares shall have been so transferred.

 5. No Rights as Employee, Director or Consultant. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect in any manner whatsoever the right
or power of the Company, or a Parent or Subsidiary of the Company, to terminate Participant’s Service, for any reason, with or without cause. 

6. Miscellaneous. 

6.1 Acknowledgement. The Company and Participant agree that the Restricted Shares are granted under and governed by the Notice,
this Agreement and by the provisions of the Plan (incorporated herein by reference). Participant: (i) acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and the Plan prospectus, (ii) represents that Participant has carefully read and is familiar
with their provisions, and (iii) hereby accepts the Restricted Shares subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth herein and those set forth in the Plan and the Notice. 

6.2 Entire Agreement; Enforcement of Rights. This Agreement, the Plan and the Notice constitute the entire agreement and
understanding of the parties relating to the subject matter herein and supersede all prior discussions between them. Any prior agreements, commitments or negotiations concerning the purchase of the Shares hereunder are superseded. No modification of
or amendment to this Agreement, nor any waiver of any rights under this Agreement, shall be effective unless in writing and signed by the parties to this Agreement. The failure by either party to enforce any rights under this Agreement shall not be
construed as a waiver of any rights of such party. 
 6.3 Compliance with Laws and Regulations. The issuance of Shares will be
subject to and conditioned upon compliance by the Company and Participant with all applicable state and federal laws and regulations and with all applicable requirements of any stock exchange or automated quotation system on which the Company’s
Common Stock may be listed or quoted at the time of such issuance or transfer. The Shares issued pursuant to this Agreement shall be endorsed with appropriate legends, if any, determined by the Company. 

6.4 Governing Law; Severability. If one or more provisions of this Agreement are held to be unenforceable under applicable law,
the parties agree to renegotiate such provision in good faith. In the event that the parties cannot reach a mutually agreeable and enforceable replacement for such provision, then (i) such provision shall be excluded from this Agreement,
(ii) the balance of this Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and (iii) the balance of this 

  
 91 

 
Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms. This Agreement and all acts and transactions pursuant hereto and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed,
construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law. For purposes of litigating any dispute that may arise directly or indirectly from the Plan, the Notice and this
Agreement, the parties hereby submit and consent to litigation in the exclusive jurisdiction of the State of California and agree that any such litigation shall be conducted only in the courts of California or the federal courts of the United States
for the Northern District of California and no other courts. 
 6.5 Construction. This Agreement is the result of negotiations
between and has been reviewed by each of the parties hereto and their respective counsel, if any; accordingly, this Agreement shall be deemed to be the product of all of the parties hereto, and no ambiguity shall be construed in favor of or against
any one of the parties hereto. 
 6.6 Notices. Any notice to be given under the terms of the Plan shall be addressed to the
Company in care of its principal office, and any notice to be given to the Participant shall be addressed to such Participant at the address maintained by the Company for such person or at such other address as the Participant may specify in writing
to the Company. 
 6.7 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall he deemed
an original and all of which together shall constitute one instrument. 
 6.8 U.S. Tax Consequences. Unless an Election
(defined below) is made, upon vesting of Shares, Participant will include in taxable income the difference between the fair market value of the vesting Shares, as determined on the date of their vesting, and the price paid for the Shares. This will
be treated as ordinary income by Participant and will be subject to withholding by the Company when required by applicable law. In the absence of an Election, the Company shall satisfy the withholding requirements as set forth in Section 7
below. If Participant makes an Election, then Participant must, prior to making the Election, pay in cash (or check) to the Company an amount equal to the amount the Company is required to withhold for income and employment taxes. 

7. Withholding Taxes. Regardless of any action the Company or your employer (the “Employer”) takes with
respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), you acknowledge that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by
you is and remains your responsibility and that the Company and/or the Employer (1) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Shares received under this award,
including the award or vesting of such Shares, the subsequent sale of Shares under this award and the receipt of any dividends; and (2) do not commit to structure the terms of the award to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related
Items. 
 No stock certificates will be released to you unless you have paid or made adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer
to satisfy all withholding and payment on account obligations of the Company and/or the Employer. In this regard, you authorize the Company and/or the Employer to withhold all applicable Tax-Related Items legally payable by you from your wages or
other cash compensation paid to you by the Company and/or your Employer. With the Company’s consent, these arrangements may also include, if permissible under local law, (a) withholding Shares that otherwise would be released from the
Repurchase Right when they vest, provided that the Company only withholds the amount of Shares necessary to satisfy the minimum statutory withholding amount, (b) having the Company withhold taxes from the proceeds of the sale of the Shares,
either through a 

  
 92 

 
voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on your behalf and you hereby authorize such sales by this authorization), (c) your payment of a cash amount, or
(d) any other arrangement approved by the Company; all under such rules as may be established by the Committee and in compliance with the Company’s Insider Trading Policy and 10b5-1 Trading Plan Policy, if applicable; provided however,
that if you are a Section 16 officer of the Company under the Exchange Act, then the Committee (as constituted in accordance with Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act) shall establish the method of withholding from alternatives (a)-(d) above,
and the Committee shall establish the method prior to the Tax-Related Items withholding event. The Fair Market Value of these Shares, determined as of the effective date when taxes otherwise would have been withheld in cash, will be applied as a
credit against the withholding taxes. You shall pay to the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold as a result of your participation in the Plan or your purchase of Shares
that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. Finally, you acknowledge that the Company has no obligation to deliver Shares to you until you have satisfied the obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items as described in this
Section. 
 8. Section 83(b) Election. Participant hereby acknowledges that he or she has been informed that, with
respect to the purchase of the Shares, an election may be filed by the Participant with the Internal Revenue Service, within 30 days of the purchase of the Shares, electing pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code to be taxed currently on any
difference between the purchase price of the Shares and their Fair Market Value on the date of purchase (the “Election”). Making the Election will result in recognition of taxable income to the Participant on the date of
purchase, measured by the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value of the Shares over the purchase price for the Shares. Absent such an Election, taxable income will be measured and recognized by Participant at the time or times on which the
Company’s Repurchase Right lapses. Participant is strongly encouraged to seek the advice of his or her own tax consultants in connection with the purchase of the Shares and the advisability of filing of the Election. PARTICIPANT ACKNOWLEDGES
THAT IT IS SOLELY PARTICIPANT’S RESPONSIBILITY, AND NOT THE COMPANY’S RESPONSIBILITY, TO TIMELY FILE THE ELECTION UNDER SECTION 83(b) OF THE CODE, EVEN IF PARTICIPANT REQUESTS THE COMPANY, OR ITS REPRESENTATIVE, TO MAKE THIS FILING ON
PARTICIPANT’S BEHALF. 
 9. Consent to Electronic Delivery of All Plan Documents and Disclosures. By acceptance of this
Restricted Stock Award, Participant consents to the electronic delivery of the Notice, this Agreement, the Plan, account statements, Plan prospectuses required by the Securities and Exchange Commission, U.S. financial reports of the Company, and all
other documents that the Company is required to deliver to its security holders (including, without limitation, annual reports and proxy statements) or other communications or information related to the Restricted Stock Award. Electronic delivery
may include the delivery of a link to a Company intranet or the internet site of a third party involved in administering the Plan, the delivery of the document via e-mail or such other delivery determined at the Company’s discretion.
Participant acknowledges that Participant may receive from the Company a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically at no cost if Participant contacts the Company by telephone, through a postal service or electronic mail at [insert email].
Participant further acknowledges that Participant will be provided with a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically if electronic delivery fails; similarly, Participant understands that Participant must provide on request to the Company
or any designated third party a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically if electronic delivery fails. Also, Participant understands that Participant’s consent may be revoked or changed, including any change in the electronic mail
address to which documents are delivered (if Participant has provided an electronic mail address), at any time by notifying the Company of such revised or revoked consent by telephone, postal service or electronic mail at [insert email]. Finally,
Participant understands that Participant is not required to consent to electronic delivery. 

  
 93 

 10. Award Subject to Company Clawback or Recoupment. The Shares shall be subject to
clawback or recoupment pursuant to any compensation clawback or recoupment policy adopted by the Board or required by law during the term of Participant’s employment or other Service with the Company that is applicable to executive officers,
Employees, Directors or other service providers of the Company, and in addition to any other remedies available under such policy and applicable law may require the cancellation of Participant’s Shares (whether vested or unvested) and the
recoupment of any gains realized with respect to Participant’s Shares. 
 The parties have executed this Agreement as of the date first
set forth above.

 PERFORMANCE SHARES AGREEMENT 

NIMBLE STORAGE, INC. 

2013 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN 
 You have been
granted a Performance Shares Award (“Performance Shares Award”) by Nimble Storage, Inc. (the “Company”), subject to the terms, restrictions and conditions of the Plan, the Notice of Performance Shares
Award (“Notice”) and this Agreement. 
 1. Settlement. Your Performance Shares Award shall be settled in Shares and
the Company’s transfer agent shall record ownership of such Shares in your name as soon as reasonably practicable after achievement of the Performance Factors enumerated in the Notice. 

2. Stockholder Rights. You shall have no right to dividends or to vote Shares until you are recorded as the holder of such Shares on the stock
records of the Company and its transfer agent. 
 3. No-Transfer. Your interest in this Performance Shares Award shall not be sold, assigned,
transferred, pledged, hypothecated, or otherwise disposed of. 
 4. Termination. Upon your termination of Service for any reason, all of your
rights under the Plan, this Agreement and the Notice in respect of this Award shall immediately terminate. In case of any dispute as to whether a termination of Service has occurred, the Committee shall have sole discretion to determine whether such
termination has occurred and the effective date of such termination. 
 5. Tax Consequences. YOU SHOULD CONSULT A TAX ADVISER BEFORE ACQUIRING
THE SHARES IN THE JURISDICTION IN WHICH HE OR SHE IS SUBJECT TO TAX. Shares shall not be issued under this Agreement unless you arrangements acceptable to the Company to pay any withholding taxes that may be due as a result of the acquisition or
vesting of Shares. 
 6. Withholding Taxes. Regardless of any action the Company or your employer (the “Employer”)
takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), you acknowledge that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items
legally due by you is and remains your responsibility and that the Company and/or your Employer (1) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Shares received
under this award, including the award or vesting of such Shares, the subsequent sale of Shares under this award and the receipt of any dividends; and (2) do not commit to structure the terms of the award to reduce or eliminate your liability
for Tax-Related Items. 
 No stock certificates will be released to you unless you have paid or made adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company
and/or the Employer to satisfy all withholding and payment on account obligations of the Company and/or the Employer. In this regard, you authorize the Company and/or the Employer to withhold all applicable Tax-Related Items legally payable by you
from your wages or other cash compensation paid to you by the Company and/or your Employer. With the Company’s consent, these arrangements may also include, if permissible under local law, (a) withholding Shares that otherwise would be
issued to you when they vest, provided that the Company only withholds the amount of Shares necessary to satisfy the minimum statutory withholding amount, (b) having the Company withhold taxes from the proceeds of the sale of the Shares, either
through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on your behalf and you hereby authorize such sales by this authorization), (c) your payment of a cash amount, or (d) any other arrangement approved by the
Company; all under such rules as may be established by the Committee and in compliance with the Company’s Insider Trading Policy and 10b5-1 Trading Plan Policy, if applicable; provided however, that if you are a Section 16 officer of the
Company under the Exchange Act, then the Committee (as constituted in accordance with Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act) shall establish the method of withholding from 

  
 100 

 
alternatives (a)-(d) above, and the Committee shall establish the method prior to the Tax-Related Items withholding event. The Fair Market Value of these Shares, determined as of the
effective date when taxes otherwise would have been withheld in cash, will be applied as a credit against the withholding taxes. You shall pay to the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be
required to withhold as a result of your participation in the Plan or your purchase of Shares that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. Finally, you acknowledge that the Company has no obligation to deliver Shares to you until you
have satisfied the obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items as described in this Section. 
 7. Acknowledgement. The Company and
you agree that the Performance Shares Award is granted under and governed by the Notice, this Agreement and by the provisions of the Plan (incorporated herein by reference). You: (i) acknowledge receipt of a copy of the Plan and the Plan
prospectus, (ii) represent that you have carefully read and are familiar with their provisions, and (iii) hereby accept the Performance Shares Award subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth herein and those set forth in the
Plan, this Agreement and the Notice. 
 8. Entire Agreement; Enforcement of Rights. This Agreement, the Plan and the Notice constitute the
entire agreement and understanding of the parties relating to the subject matter herein and supersede all prior discussions between them. Any prior agreements, commitments or negotiations concerning the purchase of the Shares hereunder are
superseded. No modification of or amendment to this Agreement, nor any waiver of any rights under this Agreement, shall be effective unless in writing and signed by the parties to this Agreement. The failure by either party to enforce any rights
under this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of any rights of such party. 
 9. Compliance with Laws and Regulations. The issuance
of Shares will be subject to and conditioned upon compliance by the Company and Participant with all applicable state and federal laws and regulations and with all applicable requirements of any stock exchange or automated quotation system on which
the Company’s Common Stock may be listed or quoted at the time of such issuance or transfer. 
 10. Governing Law; Severability. If one
or more provisions of this Agreement are held to be unenforceable under applicable law, the parties agree to renegotiate such provision in good faith. In the event that the parties cannot reach a mutually agreeable and enforceable replacement for
such provision, then (i) such provision shall be excluded from this Agreement, (ii) the balance of this Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and (iii) the balance of this Agreement shall be enforceable
in accordance with its terms. This Agreement and all acts and transactions pursuant hereto and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware,
without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law. For purposes of litigating any dispute that may arise directly or indirectly from the Plan, the Notice and this Agreement, the parties hereby submit and consent to litigation in the exclusive
jurisdiction of the State of California and agree that any such litigation shall be conducted only in the courts of California or the federal courts of the United States for the Northern District of California and no other courts.

 12. Award Subject to
Company Clawback or Recoupment. The Performance Shares Award shall be subject to clawback or recoupment pursuant to any compensation clawback or recoupment policy adopted by the Board or required by law during the term of your employment or
other Service with the Company that is applicable to executive officers, Employees, Directors or other service providers of the Company, and in addition to any other remedies available under such policy and applicable law may require the

of the Code.

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

(iii)
Rule 16b-3. To the extent desirable to qualify transactions hereunder as exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the

(iv)

(v)
to determine the terms and conditions, consistent with the terms of the Plan, of any Award granted hereunder. Such terms and conditions
include the exercise or purchase price, the time or times when an Award may be exercised (which may or may not be based on performance
criteria), the vesting schedule, any vesting or exercisability acceleration or waiver of forfeiture restrictions, the acceptable
forms of consideration, the term, and any restriction or limitation regarding any Award or the Shares relating thereto, based
in each case on such factors as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall determine and may be established at the time
an Award is granted or thereafter;

 

(vi)
to correct administrative errors;

 

(vii)
to construe and interpret the terms of the Plan (including sub-plans and Plan addenda) and Awards granted pursuant to the Plan;

 

(viii)
to adopt rules and procedures relating to the operation and administration of the Plan to accommodate the specific requirements
of local laws and procedures. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrator is specifically authorized (A)

to by the Participant;

 

(xi)
to allow Participants to satisfy withholding tax amounts by electing to have the Company withhold from the Shares to be issued
pursuant to an Award that number of Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld. The Fair Market
Value of the Shares to be withheld shall be determined in such manner and on such date that the Administrator shall determine
or, in the absence of provision otherwise, on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined. All elections
by a Participant to have Shares withheld for this purpose shall be made in such form and under such conditions as the Administrator
may provide;

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

(xii)
to authorize conversion or substitution under the Plan of any or all stock options, stock appreciation rights, or other stock
awards held by service providers of an entity acquired by the Company (the “Conversion Awards”). Any conversion or
substitution shall be effective as of the close of the merger or acquisition. The Conversion Awards may be Nonstatutory Stock
Options or Incentive Stock Options, as determined by the Administrator, with respect to options granted by the acquired entity.
Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator at the time of conversion or substitution, all Conversion Awards shall have the
same terms and conditions as Awards generally granted by the Company under the Plan;

 

(xiii)
to authorize any person to execute on behalf of the Company any instrument required to effect the grant of an Award previously
granted by the Administrator;

 

(xiv)
to determine whether Awards will be settled in Shares, cash, or in any combination thereof;

 

(xv)
to determine whether to provide for the right to receive dividends or dividend equivalents;

 

(xvi)
to establish a program whereby Service Providers designated by the Administrator can reduce compensation otherwise payable in
cash in exchange for Awards under the Plan;

 

(xvii)
to impose such restrictions, conditions, or limitations as it determines appropriate as to the timing and manner of any resales
by a Participant or other subsequent transfers by the Participant of any Shares issued as a result of or under an Award, including
(A) restrictions under an insider trading policy, and (B) restrictions as to the use of a specified brokerage firm for such resales
or other transfers;

 

(xviii)
to provide, either at the time an Award is granted or by subsequent action, that an Award shall contain as a term thereof, a right,
either in tandem with the other rights under the Award or as an alternative thereto, of the Participant to receive, without payment
to the Company, a number of Shares, cash, or a combination of both, the amount of which is determined by reference to the value
of the Award; and

 

(xix)
to make all other determinations deemed necessary or advisable for administering the Plan and any Award granted hereunder.

 

(c)
Effect of Administrator’s Decision. All decisions, determinations and interpretations by the Administrator regarding
the Plan, any rules and regulations under the Plan and the terms and conditions of any Award granted hereunder, shall be final
and binding on all Participants. The Administrator shall consider such factors as it deems relevant, in its sole and absolute
discretion, to making such decisions, determinations and interpretations, including the recommendations or advice of any officer
or other employee of the Company and such attorneys, consultants and accountants as it may select.

 

5.
Eligibility. Awards may be granted to Service Providers of the Company or any of its Affiliates.

 

6.
Effective Date and Term of the Plan. The Plan shall become effective upon its adoption by the Board. Options and Stock
Awards may be granted immediately thereafter; provided, that no Option may be exercised and no Stock Award may be granted under
the Plan until the Plan is approved by the stockholders of the Company, in the manner and to the extent required by Applicable
Law, within 12 months after the date of adoption by the Board. The Plan shall continue in effect for a term of ten years from
the date of the Plan’s adoption by the Board unless terminated earlier under Section 16 herein.

 

7.
Term of Award. The term of each Award shall be determined by the Administrator and stated in the Award Agreement. In
the case of an Option, the term shall be ten years from the Grant Date or such shorter term as may be provided in the Award Agreement.

 

8.
Options. The Administrator may grant an Option or provide for the grant of an Option, from time to time in the discretion
of the Administrator or automatically upon the occurrence of specified events, including the achievement of performance goals,
and for the satisfaction of an event or condition within the control of the Awardee or within the control of others.

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

(a)
Option Agreement. Each Option Agreement shall contain provisions regarding (i) the number of Shares that may be issued
upon exercise of the Option; (ii) the type of Option; (iii) the exercise price of the Shares and the means of payment for the
Shares; (iv) the term of the Option; (v) such terms and conditions on the vesting or exercisability of an Option, or both, as
may be determined from time to time by the Administrator; (vi) restrictions on the transfer of the Option and forfeiture provisions;
and (vii) such further terms and conditions, in each case not inconsistent with this Plan, as may be determined from time to time
by the Administrator.

 

(b)
Exercise Price. The per share exercise price for the Shares to be issued pursuant to exercise of an Option shall be determined
by the Administrator, subject to the following:

 

(i)
In the case of an Incentive Stock Option, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per
Share on the Grant Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Incentive Stock Option is granted to a Ten-Percent Stockholder,
then the exercise price shall not be less than 110% of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the Grant Date.

 

(ii)
In the case of a Nonstatutory Stock Option, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per
Share on the Grant Date. The per Share exercise price may also vary according to a predetermined formula; provided, that the exercise
price never falls below 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the Grant Date.

 

(iii)
Reserved.

 

(iv)
Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the Administrator’s discretion, Conversion Awards may be granted in substitution or conversion
of options of an acquired entity, with a per Share exercise price of less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the
date of such substitution or conversion.

 

(c)
Vesting Period and Exercise Dates. Options granted under this Plan shall vest, be exercisable, or both, at such times and
in such installments during the Option’s term as determined by the Administrator. The Administrator shall have the right
to make the timing of the ability to exercise any Option granted under this Plan subject to continued service, the passage of
time, or such performance requirements as deemed appropriate by the Administrator. At any time after the grant of an Option, the
Administrator may reduce or eliminate any restrictions surrounding any Participant’s right to exercise all or part of the
Option.

 

(d)
Form of Consideration. The Administrator shall determine the acceptable form of consideration for exercising an Option,
including the method of payment, either through the terms of the Option Agreement or at the time of exercise of an Option. The
consideration, determined by the Administrator (or pursuant to authority expressly delegated by the Board, a Committee, or other
person), and in the form and amount required by applicable law, shall be actually received before issuing any Shares pursuant
to the Plan; which consideration shall have a value, as determined by the Board, not less than the par value of such Shares. Acceptable
forms of consideration may include:

 

(i)
cash;

 

(ii)
check or wire transfer;

 

(iii)
subject to any conditions or limitations established by the Administrator, other Shares that have a Fair Market Value on the date
of surrender or attestation that does not exceed the aggregate exercise price of the Shares as to which said Option shall be exercised;

 

(iv)
consideration received by the Company under a broker-assisted sale and remittance program acceptable to the Administrator to the
extent that this procedure would not violate Section 402 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended;

 

(v)
cashless exercise, subject to any conditions or limitations established by the Administrator;

 

(vi)
such other consideration and method of payment for the issuance of Shares to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws; or

 

(vii)
any combination of the foregoing methods of payment.

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

9.
Incentive Stock Option Limitations.

 

(a)
Eligibility. Only employees (as determined in accordance with Section 3401(c) of the Code and the regulations promulgated
thereunder) of the Company or any of its Related Corporations may be granted Incentive Stock Options.

 

(b)
$100,000 Limitation. Notwithstanding the designation “Incentive Stock Option” in an Option Agreement, if the
aggregate Fair Market Value of the Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by
the Awardee during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company and any of its Related Corporations) exceeds $100,000, then
the portion of such Options that exceeds $100,000 shall be treated as Nonstatutory Stock Options. An Incentive Stock Option is
considered to be first exercisable during a calendar year if the Incentive Stock Option will become exercisable at any time during
the year, assuming that any condition on the Awardee’s ability to exercise the Incentive Stock Option related to the performance
of services is satisfied. If the Awardee’s ability to exercise the Incentive Stock Option in the year is subject to an acceleration
provision, then the Incentive Stock Option is considered first exercisable in the calendar year in which the acceleration provision
is triggered. For purposes of this Section 9(b), Incentive Stock Options shall be taken into account in the order in which they
were granted. However, because an acceleration provision is not taken into account before its triggering, an Incentive Stock Option
that becomes exercisable for the first time during a calendar year by operation of such provision does not affect the application
of the $100,000 limitation with respect to any Incentive Stock Option (or portion thereof) exercised before such acceleration.
The Fair Market Value of the Shares shall be determined as of the Grant Date.

 

(c)
Leave of Absence. For purposes of Incentive Stock Options, no leave of absence may exceed three months, unless the right
to reemployment upon expiration of such leave is provided by statute or contract. If the period of leave exceeds three months
and the Awardee’s right to reemployment is not provided by statute or contract, the Awardee’s employment with the
Company shall be deemed to terminate on the first day immediately following such three-month period, and any Incentive Stock Option
granted to the Awardee shall cease to be treated as an Incentive Stock Option and shall terminate upon the expiration of the three-month
period starting on the date the employment relationship is deemed terminated.

 

(d)
Transferability. The Option Agreement must provide that an Incentive Stock Option cannot be transferable by the Awardee
otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and, during the lifetime of such Awardee, must not be exercisable
by any other person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may allow the Awardee to transfer
his or her Incentive Stock Option to a trust where under Section 671 of the Code and other Applicable Law, the Awardee is considered
the sole beneficial owner of the Option while it is held in the trust. If the terms of an Incentive Stock Option are amended to
permit transferability, the Option will be treated for tax purposes as a Nonstatutory Stock Option.

 

(e)
Exercise Price. The per Share exercise price of an Incentive Stock Option shall be determined by the Administrator in accordance
with Section 8(b)(i) of the Plan.

 

(f)
Ten-Percent Stockholder. If any Incentive Stock Option is granted to a Ten-Percent Stockholder, then the Option term shall
not exceed five years measured from the date of grant of such Option.

 

(g)
Other Terms. Option Agreements evidencing Incentive Stock Options shall contain such other terms and conditions as may
be necessary to qualify as Incentive Stock Options, to the extent determined desirable by the Administrator, under the applicable
provisions of Section 422 of the Code.

 

10.
Exercise of Option.

 

(a)
Procedure for Exercise; Rights as a Stockholder.

 

(i)
Any Option granted hereunder shall be exercisable according to the terms of the Plan and at such times and under such conditions
as determined by the Administrator and set forth in the respective Award Agreement.

 

(ii)
An Option shall be deemed exercised when the Company receives (A) written or electronic notice of exercise (in accordance with
the Award Agreement) from the person entitled to exercise the Option; (B) full payment for the Shares with respect to which the
related Option is exercised; and (C) with respect to Nonstatutory Stock Options, payment of all applicable withholding taxes.

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

(iii)
Shares issued upon exercise of an Option shall be issued in the name of the Participant or, if requested by the Participant, in
the name of the Participant and his or her spouse. Unless provided otherwise by the Administrator or pursuant to this Plan, until
the Shares are issued (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent
of the Company), no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a stockholder shall exist with respect to the Shares
subject to an Option, notwithstanding the exercise of the Option.

 

(iv)
The Company shall issue (or cause to be issued) such Shares as soon as administratively practicable after the Option is exercised.
An Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share.

 

(b)
Effect of Termination of Service on Options.

 

(i)
Generally. Unless otherwise provided for by the Administrator, if a Participant ceases to be a Service Provider, other
than upon the Participant’s death or Disability, the Participant may exercise his or her Option within such period as is
specified in the Award Agreement to the extent that the Option is vested on the Termination Date (but in no event later than the
expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Award Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon a Participant’s
Termination of Service during any California Qualification Period, other than due to death, Disability, or cause, the Participant
may exercise his or her Option (A) at any time on or before the date determined by the Administrator, which date shall be at least
30 days after the Participant’s Termination Date (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such Option);
and (B) only to the extent that the Participant was entitled to exercise such Option on the Termination Date. In the absence of
a specified time in the Award Agreement, the vested portion of the Option will remain exercisable for three months following the
Participant’s Termination Date. Unless otherwise provided by the Administrator, if on the Termination Date the Participant
is not vested as to his or her entire Option, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option will automatically revert
to the Plan. If after the Termination of Service the Participant does not exercise his or her Option within the time specified
by the Administrator, the Option will automatically terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option will revert to the Plan.

 

(ii)
Disability of Awardee. Unless otherwise provided for by the Administrator, if a Participant ceases to be a Service Provider
as a result of the Participant’s Disability, the Participant may exercise his or her Option within such period as is specified
in the Award Agreement to the extent the Option is vested on the Termination Date (but in no event later than the expiration of
the term of such Option as set forth in the Award Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, during any California Qualification
Period, upon a Participant’s Termination of Service due to his or her Disability the Participant may exercise his or her
Option (A) at any time on or before the date determined by the Administrator, which date shall be at least six months after the
Termination Date (but in no event later than the expiration date of the term of his or her Option); and (B) only to the extent
that the Participant was entitled to exercise such Option on the Termination Date. In the absence of a specified time in the Award
Agreement, the Option will remain exercisable for twelve months following the Participant’s Termination Date. Unless otherwise
provided by the Administrator, if at the time of Disability the Participant is not vested as to his or her entire Option, the
Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option will automatically revert to the Plan. If the Option is not so exercised
within the time specified herein, the Option will terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option will automatically revert to
the Plan.

 

(iii)
Death of Awardee. Unless otherwise provided for by the Administrator, if a Participant dies while a Service Provider, the
Option may be exercised following the Participant’s death within such period as is specified in the Award Agreement to the
extent that the Option is vested on the date of death (but in no event may the Option be exercised later than the expiration of
the term of such Option as set forth in the Award Agreement), by the Participant’s designated beneficiary, provided such
beneficiary has been designated before the Participant’s death in a form acceptable to the Administrator. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, during any California Qualification Period, if the Participant dies before his or her Termination of Service, the
Participant’s Option may be exercised by the Participant’s designated beneficiary (A) at any time on or before the
date determined by the Administrator, which date shall be at least six months after the date of death (but in no event later than
the expiration date of the term of his or her Option); and (B) only to the extent that the Participant was entitled to exercise
the Option at the date of death. If no such beneficiary has been designated by the Participant, then such Option may be exercised
by the personal representative of the Participant’s estate or by the person or persons to whom the Option is transferred
pursuant to the Participant’s will or in accordance with the laws of descent and distribution. In the absence of a specified
time in the Award Agreement, the Option will remain exercisable for twelve months following Participant’s death. Unless
otherwise provided by the Administrator, if at the time of death Participant is not vested as to his or her entire Option, the
Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option will revert to the Plan. If the Option is not so exercised within the time
specified herein, the Option will terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option will revert to the Plan.

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

11.
Stock Awards.

 

(a)
Stock Award Agreement. Each Stock Award Agreement shall contain provisions regarding (i) the number of Shares subject to
such Stock Award or a formula for determining such number; (ii) the purchase price, if any, of the Shares, and the means of payment
for the Shares; (iii) the performance criteria, if any, and level of achievement versus these criteria that shall determine the
number of Shares granted, issued, retained, or vested, as applicable; (iv) such terms and conditions on the grant, issuance, vesting,
or forfeiture of the Shares, as applicable, as may be determined from time to time by the Administrator; (v) restrictions on the
transferability of the Stock Award; and (vi) such further terms and conditions in each case not inconsistent with this Plan as
may be determined from time to time by the Administrator.

 

Notwithstanding
the foregoing, during any California Qualification Period, the purchase price for restricted Shares shall be determined by the
Administrator, but shall not be less than 85% (or 100% in the case of a person who is a Ten-Percent Stockholder on the date of
grant of such restricted stock) of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date of grant of such stock.

 

(b)
Restrictions and Performance Criteria. The grant, issuance, retention, and vesting of each Stock Award may be subject to
such performance criteria and level of achievement versus these criteria as the Administrator shall determine, which criteria
may be based on financial performance, personal performance evaluations, or completion of service by the Awardee. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, during any California Qualification Period, restricted stock awarded to anyone other than an Officer, Director,
or Consultant of the Company shall vest at a rate of at least 20% per year.

 

Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein, the performance criteria for any Stock Award that is intended to satisfy the requirements for
“performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code shall be established by the Administrator based
on one or more Qualifying Performance Criteria selected by the Administrator and specified in writing.

 

(c)
Forfeiture. Unless otherwise provided for by the Administrator, upon the Awardee’s Termination of Service, the unvested
Stock Award and the Shares subject thereto shall be forfeited, provided that to the extent that the Participant purchased any
Shares pursuant to such Stock Award, the Company shall have a right to repurchase the unvested portion of such Shares at the original
price paid by the Participant, provided that during any California Qualification Period, the Company must exercise such right
to repurchase (i) for either cash or cancellation of purchase money indebtedness for such unvested Shares; and (ii) within 90
days of such Termination of Service.

 

(d)
Rights as a Stockholder. Unless otherwise provided by the Administrator, the Participant shall have the rights equivalent
to those of a stockholder and shall be a stockholder only after Shares are issued (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the
books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company) to the Participant. Unless otherwise provided by the
Administrator, a Participant holding Stock Units shall be entitled to receive dividend payments as if he or she were an actual
stockholder.

 

12.
Other Provisions Applicable to Awards.

 

(a)
Non-Transferability of Awards. Unless determined otherwise by the Administrator, an Award may not be sold, pledged, assigned,
hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and may
be exercised, during the lifetime of the Participant, only by the Participant. If the Administrator makes an Award transferable,
either at the time of grant or thereafter, such Award shall contain such additional terms and conditions as the Administrator
deems appropriate, and any transferee shall be bound by such terms upon acceptance of such transfer. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
during any California Qualification Period, an Award may not be transferred in any manner other than by will, by the laws of descent
and distribution, or as permitted by Rule 701 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as the Administrator may determine.

 

(b)
Qualifying Performance Criteria. For purposes of this Plan, the term “Qualifying Performance Criteria” shall
mean any one or more of the following performance criteria, applied to either the Company as a whole or to a business unit, Affiliate,
Related Corporations, or business segment, either individually, alternatively, or in any combination, and measured either annually
or cumulatively over a period of years, on an absolute basis or relative to a pre-established target, to previous years’
results or to a designated comparison group, in each case as specified in the Award by the Committee: (i) cash flow, (ii) earnings
(including gross margin, earnings before interest and taxes, earnings before taxes, and net earnings), (iii) earnings per share,
(iv) growth in earnings or earnings per share, (v) stock price, (vi) return on equity or average stockholders’ equity, (vii)
total stockholder return, (viii) return on capital, (ix) return on assets or net assets, (x) return on investment, (xi) revenue,
(xii) income or net income, (xiii) operating income or net operating income, (xiv) operating profit or net operating profit, (xv)
operating margin, (xvi) return on operating revenue, (xvii) market share, (xviii) contract awards or backlog, (xix) overhead or
other expense reduction, (xx) growth in stockholder value relative to the moving average of the S&P 500 Index or a peer group
index, (xxi) credit rating, (xxii) strategic plan development and implementation, (xxiii) improvement in workforce diversity,
(xxiv) EBITDA, and (xxv) any other similar criteria.

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

(c)
Certification. Before payment of any compensation under an Award intended to qualify as “performance-based compensation”
under Section 162(m) of the Code, the Committee shall certify the extent to which any Qualifying Performance Criteria and any
other material terms under such Award have been satisfied (other than in cases where such relate solely to the increase in the
value of the Common Stock).

 

(d)
Discretionary Adjustments Pursuant to Section 162(m). Notwithstanding satisfaction or completion of any Qualifying Performance
Criteria, to the extent specified at the time of grant of an Award to “covered employees” within the meaning of Section
162(m) of the Code, the number of Shares, Options or other benefits granted, issued, retained, or vested under an Award on account
of satisfaction of such Qualifying Performance Criteria may be reduced by the Committee on the basis of such further considerations
as the Committee in its sole discretion shall determine.

 

(e)
Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, it is the Company’s intent that all Awards granted
under this Plan comply with Section 409A of the Code, and each Award shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with that intention.

 

13.
Adjustments upon Changes in Capitalization, Dissolution, Merger or Asset Sale.

 

(a)
Changes in Capitalization.

 

(i)
The limitations set forth in Section 3, the number and kind of Shares covered by each outstanding Award, and the price per Share
(but not the total price) subject to each outstanding Award shall be proportionally adjusted to prevent dilution or enlargement
of rights under the Plan for any change in the outstanding Common Stock subject to the Plan, or subject to any Award, resulting
from any stock splits, combination or exchange of Shares, consolidation, spin-off or recapitalization of Shares or any capital
adjustment or transaction similar to the foregoing or any distribution to holders of Common Stock other than regular cash dividends.

 

(ii)
The Administrator shall make such adjustment in such manner as it deems equitable and appropriate, subject to compliance with
Applicable Laws. Any determination, substitution or adjustment made by the Administrator under this Section shall be conclusive
and binding on all persons. The conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be treated as a transaction
requiring any adjustment under this Section. Except as expressly provided herein, no issuance by the Company of shares of stock
of any class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall
be made with respect to, the number or price of Shares subject to an Award.

 

(b)
Dissolution or Liquidation. In the event of the proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the Administrator shall
notify each Participant as soon as practicable before the effective date of such proposed transaction. The Administrator in its
discretion may provide for an Option to be fully vested and exercisable until ten days before such proposed transaction. In addition,
the Administrator may provide that any restrictions on any Award shall lapse before the proposed transaction, provided the proposed
dissolution or liquidation takes place at the time and in the manner contemplated. To the extent it has not been previously exercised,
an Award will terminate immediately before the consummation of such proposed transaction.

 

(c)
Change in Control. If there is a Change in Control of the Company, as determined by the Board or a Committee, the Board
or Committee, or board of directors of any surviving entity or acquiring entity may, in its discretion, (i) provide for the assumption,
continuation or substitution (including an award to acquire substantially the same type of consideration paid to the stockholders
in the transaction in which the Change in Control occurs) of, or adjustment to, all or any part of the Awards; (ii) accelerate
the vesting of all or any part of the Options and SARs and terminate any restrictions on all or any part of the Stock Awards or
Cash Awards; (iii) provide for the cancellation of all or any part of the Awards for a cash payment to the Participants; and (iv)
provide for the cancellation of all or any part of the Awards as of the closing of the Change in Control; provided, that the Participants
are notified that they must exercise or redeem their Awards (including, at the discretion of the Board or Committee, any unvested
portion of such Award) at or before the closing of the Change in Control.

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

14.
Amendment and Termination of the Plan.

 

(a)
Amendment and Termination. The Administrator may amend, alter, or discontinue the Plan or any Award Agreement, but any
such amendment shall be subject to approval of the stockholders of the Company in the manner and to the extent required by Applicable
Law.

 

(b)
Effect of Amendment or Termination. No amendment, suspension, or termination of the Plan shall materially impair the rights
of any Award, unless agreed otherwise between the Participant and the Administrator. Termination of the Plan shall not affect
the Administrator’s ability to exercise the powers granted to it hereunder with respect to Awards granted under the Plan
before the date of such termination.

 

(c)
Effect of the Plan on Other Arrangements. Neither the adoption of the Plan by the Board or a Committee nor the submission
of the Plan to the stockholders of the Company for approval shall be construed as creating any limitations on the power of the
Board or any Committee to adopt such other incentive arrangements as it or they may deem desirable, including the granting of
restricted stock or stock options otherwise than under the Plan, and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable
only in specific cases.

 

15.
Designation of Beneficiary.

 

(a)
An Awardee may file a written designation of a beneficiary who is to receive the Awardee’s rights pursuant to Awardee’s
Award or the Awardee may include his or her Awards in an omnibus beneficiary designation for all benefits under the Plan. To the
extent that Awardee has completed a designation of beneficiary such beneficiary designation shall remain in effect with respect
to any Award hereunder until changed by the Awardee to the extent enforceable under Applicable Law.

 

(b)
The Awardee may change such designation of beneficiary at any time by written notice. If an Awardee dies and no beneficiary is
validly designated under the Plan who is living at the time of such Awardee’s death, the Company shall allow the executor
or administrator of the estate of the Awardee to exercise the Award, or if no such executor or administrator has been appointed
(to the knowledge of the Company), the Company, in its discretion, may allow the spouse or one or more dependents or relatives
of the Awardee to exercise the Award to the extent permissible under Applicable Law.

 

16.
No Right to Awards or to Service. No person shall have any claim or right to be granted an Award and the grant of any
Award shall not be construed as giving an Awardee the right to continue in the service of the Company or its Affiliates. Further,
the Company and its Affiliates expressly reserve the right, at any time, to dismiss any Service Provider or Awardee at any time
without liability or any claim under the Plan, except as provided herein or in any Award Agreement entered into hereunder.

 

17.
Preemptive Rights. No Shares will be issued under the Plan in violation of any preemptive rights held by any stockholder
of the Company.

 

18.
Legal Compliance. No Share will be issued pursuant to an Award under the Plan unless the issuance and delivery of such
Share, as well as the exercise of such Award, if applicable, will comply with Applicable Laws. Issuance of Shares under the Plan
shall be subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such compliance. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan
to the contrary, the Plan is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and shall be interpreted in
a manner consistent with that intention.

 

19.
Inability to Obtain Authority. To the extent the Company is unable to or the Administrator deems that it is not feasible
to obtain authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction, which authority is deemed by the Company’s counsel to
be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder, the Company shall be relieved of any liability with respect
to the failure to issue or sell such Shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained.

 

20.
Reservation of Shares. The Company, during the term of this Plan, will at all times reserve and keep available such
number of Shares as shall be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the Plan.

 

21.
Notice. Any written notice to the Company required by any provisions of this Plan shall be addressed to the Secretary
of the Company and shall be effective when received.

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

22.
Governing Law; Interpretation of Plan and Awards.

 

(a)
This Plan and all determinations made and actions taken pursuant hereto shall be governed by the substantive laws, but not the
choice of law rules, of the state of Wyoming.

 

(b)
If any provision of the Plan or any Award granted under the Plan 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 the terms of the Plan and Award shall not be affected except
to the extent necessary to reform or delete such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision.

 

(c)
The headings preceding the text of the sections hereof are inserted solely for convenience of reference, and shall not constitute
a part of the Plan, nor shall they affect its meaning, construction or effect.

 

(d)
The terms of the Plan and any Award shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective
permitted heirs, beneficiaries, successors, and assigns.

 

(e)
All questions arising under the Plan or under any Award shall be decided by the Administrator in its total and absolute discretion.
If the Participant believes that a decision by the Administrator with respect to such person was arbitrary or capricious, the
Participant may request arbitration with respect to such decision. The review by the arbitrator shall be limited to determining
whether the Administrator’s decision was arbitrary or capricious. This arbitration shall be the sole and exclusive review
permitted of the Administrator’s decision, and the Awardee shall as a condition to the receipt of an Award be deemed to
waive explicitly any right to judicial review.

 

23.
Limitation on Liability. The Company and any Affiliate or Related Corporation that is in existence or hereafter comes
into existence shall not be liable to a Participant, an Employee, an Awardee, or any other persons as to:

 

(a)
The Non-Issuance of Shares. The non-issuance or sale of Shares as to which the Company has been unable to obtain from any
regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority deemed by the Company’s counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance
and sale of any shares hereunder; and

 

(b)
Tax Consequences. Any tax consequence expected, but not realized, by any Participant, Employee, Awardee or other person
due to the receipt, exercise or settlement of any Option or other Award granted hereunder.

 

24.
Unfunded Plan. Insofar as it provides for Awards, the Plan shall be unfunded. Although bookkeeping accounts may be
established with respect to Awardees who are granted Stock Awards under this Plan, any such accounts will be used merely as a
bookkeeping convenience. The Company shall not be required to segregate any assets that may at any time be represented by Awards,
nor shall this Plan be construed as providing for such segregation, nor shall the Company or the Administrator be deemed a trustee
of stock or cash to be awarded under the Plan. Any liability of the Company to any Participant with respect to an Award shall
be based solely upon any contractual obligations that may be created by the Plan; no such obligation of the Company shall be deemed
secured by any pledge or other encumbrance on any property of the Company. Neither the Company nor the Administrator shall be
required to give any security or bond for the performance of any obligation that may be created by this Plan.

 

IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company, by its duly authorized officer, has executed this Plan, effective as of April 18, 2017.
