July 12, 2012 and pursuant to Sections 201, 301 and 303 of the Indenture, dated as of December 1, 1995, between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (formerly known as The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A.),
as successor in interest to J.P. Morgan Trust Company, N.A., as successor in interest to Bank One Trust Company, N.A., as successor in interest to The First National Bank of Chicago, as Trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by the Fifth
Supplemental Indenture, dated as of February 11, 2010, among Burlington Northern Santa Fe Corporation, R Acquisition Company, LLC and the Trustee, and further supplemented by the Eleventh Supplemental Indenture, dated as of August 23, 2012
(the “Eleventh Supplemental Indenture”), between the Company and the Trustee (together with the Eleventh Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”), there was established as of August 23, 2012 two series of securities under
the Indenture with the following terms: 
  

	 	1.	The securities of the series are entitled (i) “3.050% Debentures due September 1, 2022” (the “2022 Debentures”) and (ii) “4.375%
Debentures due September 1, 2042” (the “2042 Debentures” and, together with the 2022 Debentures, the “Debentures”). 

  

	 	2.	The 2022 Debentures and the 2042 Debentures are initially being offered in the aggregate principal amount of $600,000,000 and $650,000,000, respectively (except for
Debentures authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, other Debentures pursuant to Section 304, 305, 306, 906 or 1107 of the Indenture and any Debentures which pursuant to Section 303
are deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered thereunder). The Company may, without the consent of the Holders of the Debentures of a series, issue additional Debentures of such series and thereby increase such principal amount, on the
same terms and conditions and with the same CUSIP number as the Debentures of such series. 

  

	 	3.	The principal amount of the 2022 Debentures will mature on September 1, 2022 and the principal amount of the 2042 Debentures will mature on September 1, 2042,
subject to the provisions of the Indenture relating to acceleration. 

	 	4.	The 2022 Debentures will bear interest from August 23, 2012 or from the most recent Interest Payment Date (as defined below) to which interest has been paid or
provided for, at the rate of 3.050% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 1 and September 1 of each year (each, an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing March 1, 2013 to the persons in whose names the 2022
Debentures are registered on the close of business on the immediately preceding February 15 and August 15, respectively, whether or not such day is a Business Day (each, a “Regular Record Date”). The 2042 Debentures will bear
interest from August 23, 2012 or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or provided for, at the rate of 4.375% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on the Interest Payment Dates, commencing
March 1, 2013 to the persons in whose names the 2042 Debentures are registered on the close of business on the immediately preceding Regular Record Date. 

 

	 	5.	Subject to paragraph 10 below, the principal of and interest on the Debentures will be payable at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose,
pursuant to the Indenture, in The City of New York, which shall be initially the corporate trust office of the Trustee; provided, however, that at the option of the Company, such payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the person entitled
thereto as provided in the Indenture. 

  

	 	6.	The Debentures will be redeemable as a whole or in part at the option of the Company, at any time, as set forth in the Eleventh Supplemental Indenture.

  

	 	7.	Holders of the Debentures shall have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part (in integral multiples of $1,000) of such holder’s Debentures
upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Repurchase Event (as defined in the Eleventh Supplemental Indenture), as set forth in the Eleventh Supplemental Indenture. 

 

	 	8.	The Debentures shall not be entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund, nor shall the Debentures be repayable at the option of the registered Holders thereof.

  

	 	9.	Subject to paragraph 10 below, the Debentures shall be issued in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. 

 

	 	10.	 Upon issuance the Debentures will be represented by one or more Global Securities deposited with, or on behalf of, The Depository Trust Company (the
“Depositary”). Settlement for the Debentures will be made by the Underwriters (as hereinafter defined) in immediately available funds. All 

	 	
payments of principal and interest shall be made by the Company in immediately available funds as long as the Debentures are represented by Global Securities. As long as the Debentures are
represented by Global Securities registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee, the Debentures will trade in the Depositary’s Same-Day Funds Settlement System, and secondary market trading activity in the Debentures will therefore
settle in immediately available funds. Except as set forth in the Indenture or in the Prospectus Supplement relating to the Debentures, the Debentures will not be issuable in definitive form. 

Furthermore, we hereby (i) approve the forms of and authorize the execution and delivery of the Debentures (copies of which are
attached as Exhibit A-1, Exhibit A-2, Exhibit A-3 and Exhibit A-4), and the Underwriting Agreement, dated August 16, 2012, between the Company and Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Goldman, Sachs & Co. and
Merrill Lynch, Pierce Fenner & Smith Incorporated, as representatives of the several underwriters listed therein (a copy of which is attached as Exhibit B), and (ii) ratify the execution and delivery of the Eleventh Supplemental
Indenture (a copy of which is attached as Exhibit C). 
 All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined
shall have the meanings given such terms in the Indenture.

2010 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN 

RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT 

(SENIOR MANAGEMENT) 
 Pursuant to the Restricted Stock Unit (RSU) Grant Notice (“Grant Notice”) and this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement (this “Agreement”), QuinStreet, Inc. (the
“Company”) has granted you a Restricted Stock Unit Award under its 2010 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) representing the right to receive the number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock
indicated in the Grant Notice on the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Grant Notice. Defined terms not explicitly defined in this Agreement but defined in the Plan shall have the same definitions as in the Plan. 

The details of your Restricted Stock Unit Award are as follows: 
 1.    VESTING.  Subject to the limitations contained herein and the potential vesting acceleration provisions set forth in
Section 9 hereof, your Restricted Stock Unit Award will vest as provided in your Grant Notice, provided that vesting will cease upon the termination of your Continuous Service. Immediately upon termination of your Continuous Service for any
reason, any unvested portion of the Restricted Stock Unit Award shall be forfeited without consideration. 

2.    CONVERSION INTO
SHARES.  Shares of Common Stock will be issued on the applicable vesting date (or, to the extent not administratively feasible, as soon as practicable thereafter). As a condition to such issuance,
you shall have satisfied your Tax Obligations as specified in this Agreement and shall have completed, signed and returned any documents and taken any additional action that the Company deems appropriate to enable it to accomplish the delivery of
such shares. In no event will the Company be obligated to issue a fractional share. 

3.    TAX TREATMENT. 

(a)    Regardless of any actions taken by the Company, you will be ultimately responsible for any
withholding tax liabilities, whether as a result of federal, state or other law and whether for the payment and satisfaction of any income tax, social security tax, payroll tax, or payment on account of other tax related to withholding obligations
that arise by reason of the Restricted Stock Unit Award, incurred in connection with the Restricted Stock Unit Award becoming vested and Common Stock being issued, or otherwise incurred in connection with the Restricted Stock Unit Award
(collectively, “Tax Obligations”). 
 (b)    Unless otherwise
determined by the Company in its sole discretion, and subject to applicable law, the Company shall require you to satisfy the Tax Obligations (as defined below) by the Company deducting from the shares of Common Stock otherwise deliverable to you in
settlement of applicable portion of the Restricted Stock Unit Award on the vesting date a number of whole shares having a fair market value (as determined by the Company) as of the date on which the Tax Obligations arise not in

 
excess of the amount of such Tax Obligations determined by the applicable minimum statutory withholding rates. The Company may in its sole discretion permit you to elect an alternative method of
satisfying your Tax Obligations with notice to the Company, which may include the following if specified by the Company (and the Company may with notice to you require any of the following methods): (i) by payment by you to the Company in cash
or by check an amount equal to the minimum amount of taxes that the Company concludes it is required to withhold under applicable law; or (ii) by the sale by you of a number of shares of Common Stock that are issued on the applicable vesting
date under the Restricted Stock Unit Award, which the Company determines is sufficient to generate an amount that meets the Tax Obligations plus additional shares to account for rounding and market fluctuations, and payment of such tax withholding
to the Company, and such shares may be sold as part of a block trade with other Participants. You hereby authorize the Company to withhold such tax withholding amount from any amounts owing to you to the Company and to take any action necessary in
accordance with this paragraph. 
 (c)    The Restricted Stock Unit Award is intended to
qualify for the short-term deferral exception to Section 409A of the Code described in the regulations promulgated thereunder, and therefore shares of Common Stock will be issued within 2 1/2 months after the taxable year in which the applicable portion of the Restricted Stock Unit Award is no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture. 

4.    SECURITIES LAW
COMPLIANCE.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company shall not be obligated to deliver any Common Stock during any period when the Company determines that the
conversion of any portion of the Restricted Stock Unit Award or the delivery of shares hereunder would violate any federal, state or other applicable laws and/or may issue shares subject to any restrictive legends that, as determined by the
Company’s counsel, is necessary to comply with securities or other regulatory requirements. 

5.    RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER OF
AWARDS.  You understand and agree that the Restricted Stock Unit Award may not be sold, given, transferred, assigned, pledged or otherwise hypothecated. 

6.    CAPITALIZATION ADJUSTMENTS.  The number of
shares of Common Stock subject to your Restricted Stock Unit Award may be adjusted from time to time for Capitalization Adjustments. 
 7.    NO STOCKHOLDER RIGHTS.  You will have no voting or other rights as the Company’s
other stockholders with respect to the shares of Common Stock underlying the Restricted Stock Unit Award until issuance of such shares. 
 8.    DIVIDEND EQUIVALENT UNITS.  Unless otherwise determined by the Compensation Committee of the
Company’s Board of Directors in its sole discretion, you shall not have any rights to dividends or dividend equivalents in the event that the Company pays a cash dividend to holders of Common Stock generally.

 9.    INVOLUNTARY TERMINATION
FOLLOWING A CHANGE IN CONTROL. 
 (a)    If a Change in Control occurs and as of, or within six months after, the effective time of such Change in Control your Continuous Service terminates due to an involuntary
termination (not including death or Disability) without Cause or due to a voluntary termination which is a Resignation for Good Reason (as defined below), then, as of the date of termination of Continuous Service, twenty-five percent (25%) of
the portion of your Restricted Stock Unit Award subject to vesting that is unvested on the effective date of such termination will vest immediately upon such termination and the vested shares, less shares withheld for taxes, will be promptly
released to you. 
 (b)    “Resignation for Good Reason” means that
you voluntarily terminate employment after any of the following are undertaken without your express written consent: 
 (i)    the assignment to you of any duties or responsibilities that results in a significant diminution in your employment role in the Company as in effect immediately prior to the
effective date of the Change in Control; provided, however, that mere changes in your title or reporting relationships alone shall not constitute a basis for Resignation for Good Reason; 

(ii)    a greater than five percent (5%) aggregate reduction by the Company in your annual base
salary, as in effect on the effective date of the Change in Control or as increased thereafter; provided, however, that if there are across-the-board proportionate salary reductions for all officers, management-level and other salaried
employees due to the financial condition of the Company, a greater than ten percent (10%) aggregate reduction by the Company in your annual base salary will be required; 

(iii)    any failure by the Company to continue in effect any benefit plan or program, including
fringe benefits, incentive plans and plans with respect to the receipt of securities of the Company, in which you are participating immediately prior to the effective date of the Change in Control (hereinafter referred to as “Benefit
Plans”), or the taking of any action by the Company that would adversely affect your participation in or reduce your benefits under the Benefit Plans; provided, however, that a basis for Resignation for Good Reason shall not exist under
this clause (c) following a Change in Control if the Company offers a range of benefit plans and programs that, taken as a whole, is comparable to the Benefit Plans; or 

(iv)    a non-temporary relocation of your business office to a location more than fifty
(50) miles from the location at which you perform duties as of the effective date of the Change in Control, except for required travel by you on the Company’s business to an extent substantially consistent with your business travel
obligations prior to the Change in Control.

 (c)    If any payment or benefit you would receive
pursuant to a Change in Control from the Company or otherwise (“Payment”) would (i) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, and (ii) but for this sentence, be
subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then such Payment shall be equal to the Reduced Amount. The “Reduced Amount” shall be either (x) the largest portion of the
Payment that would result in no portion of the Payment being subject to the Excise Tax or (y) the largest portion, up to and including the total, of the Payment, whichever amount, after taking into account all applicable federal, state and
local employment taxes, income taxes, and the Excise Tax (all computed at the highest applicable marginal rate), results in your receipt, on an after-tax basis, of the greater amount of the Payment notwithstanding that all or some portion of the
Payment may be subject to the Excise Tax. If a reduction in payments or benefits constituting “parachute payments” is necessary so that the Payment equals the Reduced Amount, reduction shall occur in the following order: reduction of cash
payments; cancellation of accelerated vesting of Stock Awards; reduction of employee benefits. In the event that acceleration of vesting of Stock Award compensation is to be reduced, such acceleration of vesting shall be cancelled in the reverse
order of the date of grant of your Stock Awards (i.e., earliest granted Stock Award cancelled last). 
 The accounting
firm engaged by the Company for general audit purposes as of the day prior to the effective date of the Change in Control shall perform the foregoing calculations. If the accounting firm so engaged by the Company is serving as accountant or auditor
for the individual, entity or group effecting the Change in Control, the Company shall appoint a nationally recognized accounting firm to make the determinations required hereunder. The Company shall bear all expenses with respect to the
determinations by such accounting firm required to be made hereunder. 
 The accounting firm engaged to make the determinations
hereunder shall provide its calculations, together with detailed supporting documentation, to you and the Company within fifteen (15) calendar days after the date on which your right to a Payment is triggered (if requested at that time by you
or the Company) or such other time as requested by you or the Company. If the accounting firm determines that no Excise Tax is payable with respect to a Payment, either before or after the application of the Reduced Amount, it shall furnish you and
the Company with an opinion reasonably acceptable to you that no Excise Tax will be imposed with respect to such Payment. Any good faith determinations of the accounting firm made hereunder shall be final, binding and conclusive upon you and the
Company. 
 10.     AWARD NOT A SERVICE
CONTRACT.  Your Restricted Stock Unit Award is not an employment or service contract, and nothing in your Restricted Stock Unit Award shall be deemed to create in any way whatsoever any obligation
on your part to continue in the employ of the Company or an Affiliate, or of the Company or an Affiliate to continue your employment. In addition, nothing in your Restricted Stock Unit Award shall obligate the Company or an Affiliate, their
respective stockholders, Boards of Directors, Officers or Employees to continue any relationship that you might have as a Director or Consultant for the Company or an Affiliate. 

11.     NOTICES.  Any notices provided for in your Restricted Stock
Unit Award or the Plan shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon receipt or, in the case of notices delivered by mail by the Company to you, five (5) days after deposit in the United States mail, postage prepaid,
addressed to you at the last address you provided to the Company.

 12.    GOVERNING PLAN
DOCUMENT.  Your Restricted Stock Unit Award is subject to all the provisions of the Plan, the provisions of which are hereby made a part of your Restricted Stock Unit Award, and is further subject
to all interpretations, amendments, rules and regulations, which may from time to time be promulgated and adopted pursuant to the Plan. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of your Restricted Stock Unit Award and those of the Plan,
the provisions of the Plan shall control.
