 This Option is exercisable immediately, in whole or in part, and shall vest according to the following vesting schedule: 
 1. 25% of the Shares subject to the Option shall vest on the first anniversary of the Vesting Commencement Date, and 1/48 of the Shares subject to the
Option shall vest each month thereafter, subject to your Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant (“Continuous Status”) on such dates. 
 2. In addition to the time-based vesting described in the preceding paragraph, if you are still an Employee or Consultant on the date of a Change of Control, and if before the one-year 

 
anniversary of the Change of Control either (a) the Company, its successor or the acquiror terminates you as an Employee and/or Consultant (so your
Continuous Service ends) without Cause, or (b) the Company, its successor or the acquiror takes actions that constitute Constructive Termination, then on the date of your termination or Constructive Termination, your Option will vest as to 100%
of the Shares. 
 3. “Change of Control” means the occurrence of any of the following events (except in each case as a
result of the sale by the Company of its securities for the purpose of raising additional funds): 
 (a) Any
“person” or “group” as such terms are defined under Sections 13 and 14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) (other than the Company, a Subsidiary of the Company, or a Company employee benefit
plan) which did not previously possess such securities becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13d-3), directly or indirectly, of Company securities representing a majority of the combined voting power of the
Company’s then outstanding securities; 
 (b) The closing of (i) the sale of all or substantially all of the assets
of the Company if the holders of Company securities representing all voting power for the election of directors before the transaction hold less than a majority of the total voting power for the election of directors of all entities which acquire
such assets, or (ii) the merger of the Company with or into another corporation if the holders of Company securities representing all voting power for the election of directors before the transaction hold less than a majority of the total
voting power for the election of directors of the surviving entity; or 
 (c) The issuance of securities which would give a
“person” or “group” beneficial ownership of Company securities representing 50% or more of all voting power for the election of directors; or 
 (d) Election of individuals representing a majority of the board of directors if those directors were nominated by a “person” or
“group” and the incumbent board of directors publicly opposed the election of those directors. 
 4. “Cause” means:

 (a) Your willful or grossly negligent failure to perform your assigned significant duties or responsibilities after two
notices at least 30 days apart from the Company describing your failure to perform such significant duties or responsibilities; 
 (b) You engage in any act of gross dishonesty, fraud or gross misrepresentation which has an adverse effect on the Company; 
 (c) Your knowing or reckless violation of any federal or state law or regulation applicable to the Company’s business which has a material adverse effect on the Company; 
 (d) Your material breach of any confidentiality agreement or invention assignment agreement between you and the Company; or 
  

 -2- 

 (e) You are convicted of, or enter a “no contest” plea to, any felony, or you
commit any act of moral turpitude, which felony or act of moral turpitude was or is reasonably likely to injure the Company. 
 5.
“Constructive Termination” means: 
 (a) A material reduction in your duties, position or authority relative to your
duties, position or authority in effect immediately prior to such reduction; provided, however, that a reduction in your position or authority solely by virtue of the Company being made part of a larger entity shall not constitute
“Constructive Termination” (as, for example, following the Change of Control, when the Chief Executive Officer of the Company remains in a similar authoritative position with respect to an entity or business unit that is similar in size as
the Company, and has similar authority within the larger entity as other individuals at similar levels within such larger entity, but does not continue to be the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, its successor or an acquiring corporation);

 (b) A material reduction in the facilities and perquisites (including office space, staff and location) available to you
immediately prior to such reduction, excluding an across-the-board reduction of facilities and perquisites affecting all executive officers of the acquiring corporation similarly; 
 (c) A requirement that you relocate your principal working location more than 75 miles from the Company facility at which you were working
at the time of the Change of Control; or 
 (d) Any reduction in your base salary, target bonus or benefits as in effect
immediately prior to such reduction (other than a benefits reduction applied consistently to all employees at the same level). 
 6.
Termination Period: 
 You may exercise this Option for three months after your Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant terminates.
Upon your death or disability, this Option may be exercised for such longer period as provided in the Plan. In no event may you exercise this Option after the Term/Expiration Date as provided above. 
  

	II.	AGREEMENT 

 1. Grant of Option. The
Plan Administrator of the Company hereby grants to the Optionee named in the Notice of Grant (the “Optionee”), an option (the “Option”) to purchase 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”), and subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, which is incorporated herein by reference. In the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of the Plan and this
Option 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 as defined in Section 422 of the Code. 
  

 -3- 

 Nevertheless, to the extent that it exceeds the $100,000 rule of Code Section 422(d), this Option shall be treated
as a Nonstatutory Stock Option (“NSO”). 
 2. Exercise of Option. This Option shall be exercisable during its term in
accordance with the provisions of Section 9 of the Plan as follows: 
 (a) Right to Exercise. 
 (i) Subject to subsections 2(a)(ii) and 2(a)(iii) below, this Option shall be exercisable cumulatively according to the vesting schedule
set forth in the Notice of Grant. Alternatively, at the election of the Optionee, this option may be exercised in whole or in part at any time as to Shares which have not yet vested (“Unvested Shares”). For purposes of this Stock Option
Agreement, Shares subject to the Option shall vest (“Vested Shares”) based on continued employment of Optionee with the Company. Vested Shares shall not be subject to the Company’s repurchase right (as set forth in the Restricted
Stock Purchase Agreement, attached hereto as Exhibit C-1). 
 (ii) As a condition to exercising this Option for
Unvested Shares, the Optionee shall execute the Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement. 
 (iii) This Option may not be exercised
for a fraction of a Share. 
 (b) Method of Exercise. This Option shall be exercisable by delivery of an exercise
notice in the form attached as Exhibit A (the “Exercise Notice”) which shall state the election to exercise the Option, the number of Shares with respect to which the Option is being exercised, and such other representations
and agreements as may be required 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 such fully
executed Exercise Notice accompanied by the aggregate Exercise Price. 
 No Shares shall be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Option
unless such issuance and such exercise complies with Applicable Laws. Assuming such compliance, for income tax purposes the Shares shall be considered transferred to the Optionee on the date on which the Option is exercised with respect to such
Shares. 
 3. Optionee’s Representations. In the event the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, at the time this Option is exercised, the Optionee shall, if required by the Company, concurrently with the exercise of all or any portion of this Option, deliver to the Company his or her Investment Representation Statement in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit B. 
 4. Lock-Up Period. Optionee hereby agrees that, if so requested by the Company or any
representative of the underwriters (the “Managing Underwriter”) in connection with any registration of the offering of any securities of the Company under the Securities Act, Optionee shall not sell or otherwise transfer any Shares or
other securities of the Company during the 180-day period (or such other period as may be requested in writing by the Managing Underwriter and agreed to in writing by the Company) (the “Market Standoff Period”) following the effective date
of a registration 

  

 -4- 

 
statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act. Such restriction shall apply only to the first registration statement of the Company to become
effective under the Securities Act that includes securities to be sold on behalf of the Company to the public in an underwritten public offering under the Securities Act. The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to securities
subject to the foregoing restrictions until the end of such Market Standoff Period. 
 5. Method of Payment. Payment of the aggregate
Exercise Price shall be by any of the following, or a combination thereof, at the election of the Optionee: 
 (a) cash; or

 (b) check. 
 6. [Intentionally Omitted] 
 7. Restrictions on Exercise. This Option may not be exercised until such time as the Plan has
been approved by the shareholders of the Company, or if the issuance of such Shares upon such exercise or the method of payment of consideration for such shares would constitute a violation of any Applicable Law. 
 8. Non-Transferability of Option. This Option may not be transferred in any manner otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent or
distribution and may be exercised during the lifetime of Optionee only by Optionee. The terms of the Plan and this Option Agreement shall be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs, successors and assigns of the Optionee. 
 9. Term of Option. This Option may be exercised only within the term set out in the Notice of Grant, and may be exercised during such term only in
accordance with the Plan and the terms of this Option. 
 10. Tax Consequences. Set forth below is a brief summary as of the date of
this Option of some of the federal tax consequences of exercise of this Option and disposition of the Shares. THIS SUMMARY IS NECESSARILY INCOMPLETE, AND THE TAX LAWS AND REGULATIONS ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE OPTIONEE SHOULD CONSULT A TAX ADVISER
BEFORE EXERCISING THIS OPTION OR DISPOSING OF THE SHARES. 
 (a) Exercise of ISO. If this Option qualifies as an ISO,
there will be no regular federal income tax liability upon the exercise of the Option, although the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of exercise over the Exercise Price will be treated as an adjustment to the
alternative minimum tax for federal tax purposes and may subject the Optionee to the alternative minimum tax in the year of exercise. 
 (b) Exercise of ISO Following Disability. If the Optionee ceases to be an Employee as a result of a disability that is not a total and permanent disability as defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code, to
the extent permitted on the date of termination, the Optionee must exercise an ISO within three months of such termination for the ISO to be qualified as an ISO. 
  

 -5- 

 (c) Exercise of Nonstatutory Stock Option. There may be a regular federal income
tax liability upon the exercise of a Nonstatutory Stock Option. The Optionee will be treated as having received compensation income (taxable at ordinary income tax rates) equal to the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the
date of exercise over the Exercise Price. If Optionee is an Employee or a former Employee, the Company will be required to withhold from Optionee’s compensation or collect from Optionee and pay to the applicable taxing authorities an amount in
cash equal to a percentage of this compensation income at the time of exercise, and may refuse to honor the exercise and refuse to deliver Shares if such withholding amounts are not delivered at the time of exercise. 
 (d) Disposition of Shares. In the case of an NSO, if Shares are held for at least one year, any gain realized on disposition of the
Shares will be treated as long-term capital gain for federal income tax purposes. In the case of an ISO, if Shares transferred pursuant to the Option are held for at least one year after exercise and at least two years after the Date of Grant, any
gain realized on disposition of the Shares will also be treated as long-term capital gain for federal income tax purposes. If Shares purchased under an ISO are disposed of within one year after exercise or two years after the Date of Grant, any gain
realized on such disposition will be treated as compensation income (taxable at ordinary income rates) to the extent of the difference between the Exercise Price and the lesser of (i) the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of exercise,
or (ii) the sale price of the Shares. Any additional gain will be taxed as capital gain, short-term depending on the period that the ISO Shares were held. 
 (e) Notice of Disqualifying Disposition of ISO Shares. If the Option granted to Optionee herein is an ISO, and if Optionee sells or
otherwise disposes of any of the Shares acquired pursuant to the ISO on or before the later of (i) the date two years after the Date of Grant, or (ii) the date one year after the date of exercise, the Optionee shall immediately notify the
Company in writing of such disposition. Optionee agrees that Optionee may be subject to income tax withholding by the Company on the compensation income recognized by the Optionee. 
 (f) Section 83(b) Election for Unvested Shares Purchased Pursuant to Options. With respect to the exercise of an Option for
unvested Shares, an election may be filed by the Optionee 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. In the case of a Nonstatutory Stock Option, this will result in a recognition of taxable income to the Optionee on the date of exercise, measured by the excess, if
any, of the fair market value of the Shares, at the time the Option is exercised over the purchase price for the Shares. Absent such an election, taxable income will be measured and recognized by Optionee at the time or times on which the
Company’s Repurchase Option lapses. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option, such an election will result in a recognition of income to the Optionee for alternative minimum tax purposes on the date of exercise, measured by the excess, if any,
of the fair market value of the Shares, at the time the option is exercised, over the purchase price for the Shares. Absent such an election, alternative minimum taxable income will be measured and recognized by Optionee at the time or times on
which the Company’s Repurchase Option lapses. Optionee 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 

  

 -6- 

 
of the Election under Section 83(b) of the Code. A form of Election under Section 83(b) is attached hereto as Exhibit C-5 for
reference. 
 OPTIONEE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT IS OPTIONEE’S SOLE RESPONSIBILITY AND NOT THE COMPANY’S TO FILE TIMELY THE ELECTION
UNDER SECTION 83(b), EVEN IF OPTIONEE REQUESTS THE COMPANY OR ITS REPRESENTATIVE TO MAKE THIS FILING ON OPTIONEE’S BEHALF. 
 11.
Entire Agreement; Governing Law. The Plan is incorporated herein by reference. The Plan and this Option Agreement constitute the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede in their entirety all
prior undertakings and agreements of the Company and Optionee with respect to the subject matter hereof, and may not be modified adversely to the Optionee’s interest except by means of a writing signed by the Company and Optionee. This
agreement is governed by the internal substantive laws but not the choice of law rules of [state]. 
 12. No Guarantee of Continued
Service. OPTIONEE ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE VESTING OF SHARES PURSUANT TO THE VESTING SCHEDULE HEREOF IS EARNED ONLY BY CONTINUING AS A SERVICE PROVIDER AT THE WILL OF THE COMPANY (NOT THROUGH THE ACT OF BEING HIRED, BEING GRANTED THIS
OPTION OR ACQUIRING SHARES HEREUNDER). OPTIONEE FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THIS AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER AND THE VESTING SCHEDULE SET FORTH HEREIN DO NOT CONSTITUTE AN EXPRESS OR IMPLIED PROMISE OF CONTINUED
ENGAGEMENT AS A SERVICE PROVIDER FOR THE VESTING PERIOD, FOR ANY PERIOD, OR AT ALL, AND SHALL NOT INTERFERE IN ANY WAY WITH OPTIONEE’S RIGHT OR THE COMPANY’S RIGHT TO TERMINATE OPTIONEE’S RELATIONSHIP AS A SERVICE PROVIDER AT ANY
TIME, WITH OR WITHOUT CAUSE. 
 Optionee acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and represents that he or she is familiar with the terms
and provisions thereof, and hereby accepts this Option subject to all of the terms and provisions thereof. Optionee has reviewed the Plan and this Option in their entirety, has had an opportunity to obtain the advice of counsel prior to executing
this Option and fully understands all provisions of the Option. Optionee hereby agrees to accept as binding, conclusive and final all decisions or interpretations of the Administrator upon any questions arising under the Plan or this Option.
Optionee further agrees to notify the Company upon any change in the residence address indicated below.

 EXHIBIT A 
 1997 STOCK OPTION PLAN 
 EXERCISE NOTICE 
 Alien Technology Corporation 
 18410 Butterfield Blvd. 
 Morgan Hill, CA 95037 
 Attention:   Secretary 
 1. Exercise of Option. Effective as of today, _________ __, 200__, the undersigned «First» «Last»
(“Optionee”) hereby elects to exercise Optionee’s option to purchase _________ shares of the Common Stock (the “Shares”) of Alien Technology Corporation (the “Company”) under and pursuant to the 1997 Stock Plan
(the “Plan”) and the [    ] Incentive [    ] Nonstatutory Stock Option Agreement dated «Date_of_Grant» (the “Option Agreement”). 
 2. Delivery of Payment. Purchaser herewith delivers to the Company the full purchase price of the Shares, as set forth in the Option Agreement.

 3. Representations of Optionee. Optionee acknowledges that Optionee has received, read and understood the Plan and the Option
Agreement and agrees to abide by and be bound by their terms and conditions. 
 4. Rights as Shareholder. Until the issuance of the
Shares (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 shareholder shall exist with respect to the Optioned
Stock, notwithstanding the exercise of the Option. The Shares shall be issued to the Optionee as soon as practicable after the Option is exercised. No adjustment shall be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the
date of issuance except as provided in Section 12 of the Plan. 
 5. Company’s Right of First Refusal. The Company is hereby
granted the right of first refusal (the “First Refusal Right”), exercisable in connection with any proposed sale or other transfer of the Shares in which the Optionee has vested. For purposes of this Section 5, the term
“transfer” shall include any assignment, pledge, encumbrance or other disposition for the value of the Shares intended to be made by the Optionee. Nothing in this Section 5 shall be construed to confer upon the Optionee the right to
transfer any shares that remain unvested under Section 4 of this Agreement. 
 (a) Notice of Proposed Transfer. In
the event the Optionee desires to accept a bona fide third-party offer for any or all of the Shares which have vested (the shares subject to such offer to be hereinafter called, solely for the purpose of this Section 5, the “Target
Shares”), such offer may be accepted only in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5, and only after the Optionee has promptly (i) delivered to the Secretary of the Company written notice (the “Disposition Notice”)
of the offer and the basic terms and conditions thereof, including the proposed purchase 

 
price and (ii) provided satisfactory proof that the disposition of the Target Shares to the third-party offeror would not be in contravention of the
provisions set forth in this Agreement, and, that such third-party offeror (including any parent company, subsidiary, division, joint venture, or other affiliate thereof) is not engaged in any business or activity (including any announced business
or activity) which directly or indirectly competes with the products or services of the Company, as the Company shall determine in its reasonable discretion. 
 (b) Exercise of Right of First Refusal; Payment. The Company (or its assignees) shall, for a period of thirty (30) days
following receipt of the Disposition Notice, have the right to repurchase not less than all of the Target Shares specified in the Disposition Notice upon substantially the same terms and conditions specified therein. Such right shall be exercisable
by written notice (the “Exercise Notice”) delivered to Optionee prior to the expiration of the thirty (30) day exercise period. If such right is exercised with respect to all the Target Shares specified in the Disposition Notice, then
the Company (or its assignees) shall effect the repurchase of the Target Shares, including payment of the purchase price, not more than five (5) business days after the delivery of the Exercise Notice; and at such time Optionee shall deliver to
the Company the certificates representing the Target Shares to be repurchased, each certificate to be properly endorsed for transfer. To the extent any of the Target Shares are at the time held in escrow, the certificates for such shares shall
automatically be released from escrow and surrendered to the Company for cancellation. The Target Shares so purchased shall thereupon be canceled and cease to be issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock. 
 (c) Purchase Price. Should the purchase price specified in the Disposition Notice be payable in property other than cash or
evidences of indebtedness, the Company (or its assignees) shall have the right to pay the purchase price in the form of cash equal in amount to the value of such property. If the Optionee and the Company (or its assignees) cannot agree on such cash
value within ten (10) days after the Company’s receipt of the Disposition Notice, the valuation shall be made by an appraiser of recognized standing selected by the Optionee and the Company (or its assignees), or, if they cannot agree on
an appraiser within twenty (20) days after the Company’s receipt of the Disposition Notice, each shall select an appraiser of recognized standing and the two appraisers shall designate a third appraiser of recognized standing, whose
appraisal shall be determinative of such value. The cost of such appraisal shall be shared equally by the Optionee and the Company. The closing shall then be held on the later of (i) the fifth business day following delivery of the Exercise
Notice or (ii) the 15th day after such cash valuation shall have been made. 
 (d) Optionee’s Right to
Transfer. In the event the Exercise Notice is not given to Optionee within thirty (30) days following the date of the Company’s receipt of the Disposition Notice, Optionee shall have a period of thirty (30) days thereafter, in
which to sell or otherwise dispose of the Target Shares upon terms and conditions (including the purchase price) no more favorable to the third-party purchaser than those specified in the Disposition Notice; provided, however, that any such sale or
disposition must not be effected in contravention of the provisions of this Agreement. To the extent any of the Target Shares are at the time held in escrow under Section 7, the certificates for such shares shall automatically be released from
escrow and surrendered to the Optionee. In the event Optionee does not sell or otherwise dispose of the Target Shares within the specified thirty (30) day period, the Company’s First Refusal Right shall continue 

  

 -2- 

 
to be applicable to any subsequent disposition of the Target Shares by Optionee until such right lapses in accordance with Section 5(f). 
 (e) Effect of Stock Dividend, Stock Split or Recapitalization. In the event of any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization or
other transaction affecting the Company’s outstanding Common Stock as a class effected without receipt of consideration, then any new, substituted or additional securities or other property which is by reason of such transaction distributed
with respect to the Target Shares shall be immediately subject to the Company’s First Refusal Right hereunder. 
 (f)
Termination of Right of First Refusal. The First Refusal Right under this Section 5 shall lapse and cease to have effect upon the earliest to occur of (i) the first date on which shares of the Company’s Common Stock are held of
record by more than five hundred (500) persons, (ii) a determination is made by the Company’s Board of Directors that a public market exists for the outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock or (iii) a firm commitment
underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, covering the offer and sale of the Company’s Common Stock. However, the market stand-off provisions of Section 4 of the Option Agreement
shall continue to remain in full force and effect following the lapse of the First Refusal Right hereunder. 
 6. Tax Consultation.
Optionee understands that Optionee may suffer adverse tax consequences as a result of Optionee’s purchase or disposition of the Shares. Optionee represents that Optionee has consulted with any tax consultants Optionee deems advisable in
connection with the purchase or disposition of the Shares and that Optionee is not relying on the Company for any tax advice. 
 7.
Restrictive Legends and Stop-Transfer Orders. 
 (a) Legends. Optionee understands and agrees that the Company
shall cause the legends set forth below or legends substantially equivalent thereto, to be placed upon any certificate(s) evidencing ownership of the Shares together with any other legends that may be required by the Company or by state or federal
securities laws: 
 THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 (THE “ACT”) AND MAY
NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED UNLESS AND UNTIL REGISTERED UNDER THE ACT OR, IN THE OPINION OF COMPANY COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER OF THESE SECURITIES, SUCH OFFER, SALE OR TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR
HYPOTHECATION IS IN COMPLIANCE THEREWITH. 
 THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER AND
RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL OPTIONS HELD BY THE ISSUER OR ITS ASSIGNEE(S) AS SET FORTH IN THE EXERCISE NOTICE BETWEEN THE ISSUER AND THE ORIGINAL HOLDER OF THESE SHARES, A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE ISSUER. SUCH TRANSFER

  

 -3- 

 
RESTRICTIONS AND RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL ARE BINDING ON TRANSFEREES OF THESE SHARES. 
 (b) Stop-Transfer Notices. Optionee 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. 
 (c) 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 owner of such Shares 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. 
 8. Successors and Assigns. The Company may assign any of its rights under this Agreement to single or multiple
assignees, and this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Company. Subject to the restrictions on transfer herein set forth, this Agreement shall be binding upon Optionee and his or her heirs, executors,
administrators, successors and assigns. 
 9. Interpretation. Any dispute regarding the interpretation of this Agreement shall be
submitted by Optionee or by the Company forthwith to the Administrator which shall review such dispute at its next regular meeting. The resolution of such a dispute by the Administrator shall be final and binding on all parties. 
 10. Governing Law; Severability. This Agreement is governed by the internal substantive laws, but not the choice of law rules, of California.

 11. Entire Agreement. The Plan and Option Agreement are incorporated herein by reference. This Agreement, the Plan, the Restricted
Stock Purchase Agreement, the Option Agreement and the Investment Representation Statement constitute the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede in their entirety all prior undertakings and agreements
of the Company and Optionee with respect to the subject matter hereof, and may not be modified adversely to the Optionee’s interest except by means of a writing signed by the Company and Optionee.

	SECURITY:	  	COMMON STOCK
		
	AMOUNT:	  	____________________________
		
	DATE:	  	____________________________

 In connection with the purchase of the above-listed Securities, the undersigned Optionee represents to the Company
the following: 
 (a) Optionee is aware of the Company’s business affairs and financial condition and has acquired sufficient
information about the Company to reach an informed and knowledgeable decision to acquire the Securities. Optionee is acquiring these Securities for investment for Optionee’s own account only and not with a view to, or for resale in connection
with, any “distribution” thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). 
 (b) Optionee acknowledges and understands that the Securities constitute “restricted securities” under the Securities Act and have not been registered under the Securities Act in reliance upon a specific exemption there from,
which exemption depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of Optionee’s investment intent as expressed herein. In this connection, Optionee understands that, in the view of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the statutory
basis for such exemption may be unavailable if Optionee’s representation was predicated solely upon a present intention to hold these Securities for the minimum capital gains period specified under tax statutes, for a deferred sale, for or
until an increase or decrease in the market price of the Securities, or for a period of one year or any other fixed period in the future. Optionee further understands that the Securities must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently
registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. Optionee further acknowledges and understands that the Company is under no obligation to register the Securities. Optionee understands that the certificate
evidencing the Securities will be imprinted with a legend which prohibits the transfer of the Securities unless they are registered or such registration is not required in the opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company. 
 (c) Optionee is familiar with the provisions of Rule 701 and Rule 144, each promulgated under the Securities Act, which, in substance, permit
limited public resale of “restricted securities” acquired, directly or indirectly from the issuer thereof, in a non-public offering subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. Rule 701 provides that if the issuer qualifies
under Rule 701 at the time of the grant of the Option to the Optionee, the exercise will be exempt from registration under the Securities Act. In the event the Company becomes subject to the reporting requirements of 

 
Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, ninety (90) days thereafter (or such longer period as any market stand-off agreement
may require) the Securities exempt under Rule 701 may be resold, subject to the satisfaction of certain of the conditions specified by Rule 144, including: (1) the resale being made through a broker in an unsolicited
“broker’s transaction” or in transactions directly with a market maker (as said term is defined under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934); and, in the case of an affiliate, (2) the availability of certain public information
about the Company, (3) the amount of Securities being sold during any three month period not exceeding the limitations specified in Rule 144(e), and (4) the timely filing of a Form 144, if applicable. 
 In the event that the Company does not qualify under Rule 701 at the time of grant of the Option, then the Securities may be resold in certain
limited circumstances subject to the provisions of Rule 144. 
 (d) Optionee further understands that in the event all of the applicable
requirements of Rule 701 or 144 are not satisfied, registration under the Securities Act, compliance with Regulation A, or some other registration exemption will be required; and that, notwithstanding the fact that Rules 144 and 701
are not exclusive, the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission has expressed its opinion that persons proposing to sell private placement securities other than in a registered offering and otherwise than pursuant to Rules 144 or 701
will have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an exemption from registration is available for such offers or sales, and that such persons and their respective brokers who participate in such transactions do so at their own risk.
Optionee understands that no assurances can be given that any such other registration exemption will be available in such event.

 ALIEN TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION 
 1997 STOCK PLAN 
 RESTRICTED STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT 
 THIS AGREEMENT is made between «First» «Last» (the “Purchaser”) and Alien Technology Corporation (the “Company”) as of ________________ __, 200__. 
 RECITALS 
 (1) Pursuant to the
exercise of the stock option granted to Purchaser under the Company’s 1997 Stock Plan (the “Plan”) and pursuant to the Stock Option Agreement (the “Option Agreement”) dated «Date_of_Grant» by and between
the Company and Purchaser with respect to such grant, which Plan and Option Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference, Purchaser has elected to purchase _________ of those shares which have not become vested under the vesting schedule set forth
in the Option Agreement (“Unvested Shares”). The Unvested Shares and the shares subject to the Option Agreement which have become vested are sometimes collectively referred to herein as the “Shares”. 
 (2) As required by the Option Agreement, as a condition to Purchaser’s election to exercise the option, Purchaser must execute this Restricted Stock
Purchase Agreement, which sets forth the rights and obligations of the parties with respect to Shares acquired upon exercise of the Option. 
 1. Repurchase Option. 
 (a) If Purchaser’s status as a Service Provider is terminated for any reason,
including for cause, death, and disability, the Company shall have the right and option to purchase from Purchaser, or Purchaser’s personal representative, as the case may be, all of the Purchaser’s Unvested Shares as of the date of such
termination at the price paid by the Purchaser for such Shares (the “Repurchase Option”). 
 (b) Upon the occurrence
of a termination, the Company may exercise its Repurchase Option by delivering personally or by registered mail, to Purchaser (or his transferee or legal representative, as the case may be), within ninety (90) days of the termination, a notice
in writing indicating the Company’s intention to exercise the Repurchase Option and setting forth a date for closing not later than thirty (30) days from the mailing of such notice. The closing shall take place at the Company’s
office. At the closing, the holder of the certificates for the Unvested Shares being transferred shall deliver the stock certificate or certificates evidencing the Unvested Shares, and the Company shall deliver the purchase price therefor.

 (c) At its option, the Company may elect to make payment for the Unvested Shares to a bank selected by the Company. The
Company shall avail itself of this option by a notice 

 
in writing to Purchaser stating the name and address of the bank, date of closing, and waiving the closing at the Company’s office. 
 (d) If the Company does not elect to exercise the Repurchase Option conferred above by giving the requisite notice within ninety
(90) days following the termination, the Repurchase Option shall terminate. 
 (e) The Repurchase Option shall terminate
in accordance with the Vesting Schedule in Optionee’s Option Agreement. 
 2. Transferability of the Shares; Escrow. 

(a) Purchaser hereby authorizes and directs the secretary of the Company, or such other person designated by the Company, to transfer
the Unvested Shares as to which the Repurchase Option has been exercised from Purchaser to the Company. 
 (b) To insure the
availability for delivery of Purchaser’s Unvested Shares upon repurchase by the Company pursuant to the Repurchase Option under Section 1, Purchaser hereby appoints the secretary, or any other person designated by the Company as escrow
agent, as its attorney-in-fact to sell, assign and transfer unto the Company, such Unvested Shares, if any, repurchased by the Company pursuant to the Repurchase Option and shall, upon execution of this Agreement, deliver and deposit with the
secretary of the Company, or such other person designated by the Company, the share certificates representing the Unvested Shares, together with the stock assignment duly endorsed in blank, attached hereto as Exhibit C-2. The Unvested
Shares and stock assignment shall be held by the secretary in escrow, pursuant to the Joint Escrow Instructions of the Company and Purchaser attached as Exhibit C-3 hereto, until the Company exercises its purchase right as provided in
Section 1, until such Unvested Shares are vested, or until such time as this Agreement no longer is in effect. As a further condition to the Company’s obligations under this Agreement, the spouse of the Purchaser, if any, shall execute and
deliver to the Company the Consent of Spouse attached hereto as Exhibit C-4. Upon vesting of the Unvested Shares, the escrow agent shall promptly deliver to the Purchaser the certificate or certificates representing such Shares in the
escrow agent’s possession belonging to the Purchaser, and the escrow agent shall be discharged of all further obligations hereunder; provided, however, that the escrow agent shall nevertheless retain such certificate or certificates as escrow
agent if so required pursuant to other restrictions imposed pursuant to this Agreement. 
 (c) The Company, or its designee,
shall not be liable for any act it may do or omit to do with respect to holding the Shares in escrow and while acting in good faith and in the exercise of its judgment. 
 (d) Transfer or sale of the Shares is subject to restrictions on transfer imposed by any applicable state and federal securities laws. Any
transferee shall hold such Shares subject to all the provisions hereof and the Exercise Notice executed by the Purchaser with respect to any Unvested Shares purchased by Purchaser and shall acknowledge the same by signing a copy of this Agreement.

  

 -2- 

 3. Ownership, Voting Rights, Duties. This Agreement shall not affect in any way the ownership,
voting rights or other rights or duties of Purchaser, except as specifically provided herein. 
 4. Legends. The share certificate
evidencing the Shares issued hereunder shall be endorsed with the following legend (in addition to any legend required under applicable state securities laws): 
 THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS UPON TRANSFER AND RIGHTS OF REPURCHASE AS SET FORTH IN AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND THE STOCKHOLDER, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE
WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY. 
 5. Adjustment for Stock Split. All references to the number of Shares and the purchase price of
the Shares in this Agreement shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect any stock split, stock dividend or other change in the Shares which may be made by the Company after the date of this Agreement. 
 6. Notices. Notices required hereunder shall be given in person or by registered mail to the address of Purchaser shown on the records of the
Company, and to the Company at their respective principal executive offices. 
 7. Survival of Terms. This Agreement shall apply to
and bind Purchaser and the Company and their respective permitted assignees and transferees, heirs, legatees, executors, administrators and legal successors. 
 8. Section 83(b) Election. Purchaser hereby acknowledges that he or she has been informed that, with respect to the exercise of an Option for unvested Shares, an election may be filed by the Purchaser 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. In the case of a Nonstatutory Stock Option, this will result in a recognition of taxable income to the Purchaser on the date of exercise, measured by the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the Shares, at the time the
Option is exercised over the purchase price for the Shares. Absent such an election, taxable income will be measured and recognized by Purchaser at the time or times on which the Company’s Repurchase Option lapses. In the case of an Incentive
Stock Option, such an election will result in a recognition of income to the Purchaser for alternative minimum tax purposes on the date of exercise, measured by the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the Shares, at the time the option is
exercised, over the purchase price for the Shares. Absent such an election, alternative minimum taxable income will be measured and recognized by Purchaser at the time or times on which the Company’s Repurchase Option lapses. Purchaser 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 under Section 83(b) of the Code. A form of Election under Section 83(b)
is attached hereto as Exhibit C-5 for reference. 
  

 -3- 

 PURCHASER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT IS PURCHASER’S SOLE RESPONSIBILITY AND NOT THE COMPANY’S TO FILE
TIMELY THE ELECTION UNDER SECTION 83(b), EVEN IF PURCHASER REQUESTS THE COMPANY OR ITS REPRESENTATIVE TO MAKE THIS FILING ON PURCHASER’S BEHALF. 
 9. Representations. Purchaser has reviewed with his own tax advisors the federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences of this investment and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Purchaser is
relying solely on such advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company or any of its agents. Purchaser understands that he (and not the Company) shall be responsible for his own tax liability that may arise as a result of this
investment or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 
 10. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by the internal
substantive laws, but not the choice of law rules, of California. 
 Purchaser represents that he has read this Agreement and is familiar
with its terms and provisions. Purchaser hereby agrees to accept as binding, conclusive and final all decisions or interpretations of the Board upon any questions arising under this Agreement.

 Non-Transferability of Stock Purchase Right. 
 This Stock Purchase Right may not be transferred in any manner otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution and may be exercised
during the lifetime of Purchaser only by Purchaser. The terms of the Plan and this Agreement will be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs, successors and assigns of the Purchaser. 
  

	II.	AGREEMENT 

 1. Sale of Stock. The Company
hereby agrees to sell to the individual named in the Notice of Grant of Stock Purchase Right (the “Purchaser”), and the Purchaser hereby agrees to purchase the number of Shares set forth in the Notice of Grant of Stock Purchase Right, at
the exercise price per share set forth in the Notice of Grant of Stock Purchase Right (the “Exercise Price”), and subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, which is incorporated herein by 

 
reference. Subject to Section 19(c) of the Plan, in the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement, the terms
and conditions of the Plan will prevail. 
 2. Payment of Purchase Price. Purchaser herewith delivers to the Company the aggregate
Exercise Price for the Shares by cash or check, together with any and all withholding taxes due in connection with the purchase of the Shares. 
 3. Purchaser’s Representations. In the event the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, at the time this Stock Purchase Right is exercised, the Purchaser will, if required by the Company,
concurrently with the exercise of all or any portion of this Stock Purchase Right, deliver to the Company his or her Investment Representation Statement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B. 
 4. Repurchase Option. 
 (a) In the
event the Purchaser’s continuous status as a Service Provider terminates for any or no reason (including death or Disability), the Company will, upon the date of such termination (as reasonably fixed and determined by the Company), have an
irrevocable, exclusive option for a period of ninety (90) days from such date to repurchase up to that number of Shares which constitute the Unreleased Shares (as defined in Section 5) at the Exercise Price per share (the “Repurchase
Price”) (the “Repurchase Option”). 
 (b) The Repurchase Option will be exercised by the Company by delivering written notice
to the Purchaser or the Purchaser’s executor (with a copy to the Escrow Holder (as defined in Section 7)) AND, at the Company’s option, (i) by delivering to the Purchaser or the Purchaser’s executor a check in the amount of
the aggregate Repurchase Price, or (ii) by the Company canceling an amount of the Purchaser’s indebtedness to the Company equal to the aggregate Repurchase Price, or (iii) by a combination of (i) and (ii) so that the
combined payment and cancellation of indebtedness equals such aggregate Repurchase Price. Upon delivery of such notice and the payment of the aggregate Repurchase Price in any of the ways described above, the Company will become the legal and
beneficial owner of the Unreleased Shares being repurchased and all rights and interests therein or relating thereto, and the Company will have the right to retain and transfer to its own name the number of Unreleased Shares being repurchased by the
Company. 
 (c) Whenever the Company will have the right to repurchase the Unreleased Shares hereunder, the Company may designate and assign
one or more employees, officers, directors or shareholders of the Company or other persons or organizations to exercise all or a part of the Company’s Repurchase Option to purchase all or a part of the Unreleased Shares. If the Fair Market
Value of the Unreleased Shares to be repurchased on the date of such designation or assignment (the “Repurchase FMV”) exceeds the aggregate Repurchase Price of the Unreleased Shares, then each such designee or assignee will pay the Company
cash equal to the difference between the Repurchase FMV and the aggregate Repurchase Price of Unreleased Shares to be purchased. 
  

 -2- 

 (d) If the Company or its assignee does not elect to exercise the Repurchase Option conferred above by
giving the requisite notice within ninety (90) days following Purchaser’s termination as a Service Provider, the Repurchase Option will terminate. 
 5. Release of Shares From Repurchase Option. 
 (a) Subject to any accelerated vesting provisions in
the Plan, [1/4th of the Shares subject to the Repurchase Option will be released on the first anniversary of the
Vesting Commencement Date and 1/48 of the Shares subject to the Repurchase Option will be released monthly thereafter] (as set forth in the Notice of Grant of Stock Purchase Right), subject to Purchaser continuing to be a Service Provider through
each such date. 
 (b) Any of the Shares which have not yet been released from the Company’s Repurchase Option are referred to herein as
“Unreleased Shares.” 
 (c) The Shares which have been released from the Company’s Repurchase Option will be delivered to the
Purchaser at the Purchaser’s request (see Section 7). 
 6. Restriction on Transfer. Except for the escrow described in
Section 7 or transfer of the Shares to the Company or its assignees contemplated by this Agreement, none of the Shares or any beneficial interest therein will be transferred, encumbered or otherwise disposed of in any way until the release of
such Shares from the Company’s Repurchase Option in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. 
 7. Escrow of Shares. 
 (a) To ensure the availability for delivery of the Purchaser’s Unreleased
Shares upon exercise of the Repurchase Option by the Company, the Purchaser will, upon execution of this Agreement, deliver and deposit with an escrow holder designated by the Company (the “Escrow Holder”) the share certificates
representing the Unreleased Shares, together with the Assignment Separate from Certificate (the “Stock Assignment”) duly endorsed in blank, attached hereto as Exhibit A-1. The Unreleased Shares and Stock Assignment will be held by
the Escrow Holder, pursuant to the Joint Escrow Instructions of the Company and Purchaser attached as Exhibit A-2 hereto, until such time as the Company’s Repurchase Option expires. 
 (b) The Escrow Holder will not be liable for any act it may do or omit to do with respect to holding the Unreleased Shares in escrow and while acting in
good faith and in the exercise of its judgment. 
 (c) If the Company or any assignee exercises its Repurchase Option hereunder, the Escrow
Holder, upon receipt of written notice of such option exercise from the proposed transferee, will take all steps necessary to accomplish such transfer. 
 (d) When the Repurchase Option has been exercised or expires unexercised or a portion of the Shares has been released from such Repurchase Option, upon Purchaser’s request the 

  

 -3- 

 
Escrow Holder will promptly cause a new certificate to be issued for such released Shares and will deliver such certificate to the Company or the Purchaser,
as the case may be. 
 (e) Subject to the terms hereof, the Purchaser will have all the rights of a shareholder with respect to such Shares
while they are held in escrow, including without limitation, the right to vote the Shares and receive any cash dividends declared thereon. If, from time to time during the term of the Company’s Repurchase Option, there is (i) any stock
dividend, stock split or other change in the Shares, or (ii) any merger or sale of all or substantially all of the assets or other acquisition of the Company, any and all new, substituted or additional securities to which the Purchaser is
entitled by reason of the Purchaser’s ownership of the Shares will be immediately subject to this escrow, deposited with the Escrow Holder and included thereafter as “Shares” for purposes of this Agreement and the Company’s
Repurchase Option. 
 8. Company’s Right of First Refusal. Subject to Section 6, before any Shares held by Purchaser or any
transferee (either being sometimes referred to herein as the “Holder”) may be sold or otherwise transferred (including transfer by gift or operation of law), the Company or its assignee(s) will have a right of first refusal to purchase the
Shares on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section (the “Right of First Refusal”). 
 (a) Notice of Proposed
Transfer. The Holder of the Shares will deliver to the Company a written notice (the “Notice”) stating: (i) the Holder’s bona fide intention to sell or otherwise transfer such Shares; (ii) the name of each proposed
purchaser or other transferee (“Proposed Transferee”); (iii) the number of Shares to be transferred to each Proposed Transferee; and (iv) the bona fide cash price or other consideration for which the Holder proposes to transfer
the Shares (the “Offered Price”), and the Holder will offer the Shares at the Offered Price to the Company or its assignee(s). 
 (b) Exercise of Right of First Refusal. At any time within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Notice, the Company and/or its assignee(s) may, by giving written notice to the Holder, elect to purchase all, but not less than
all, of the Shares proposed to be transferred to any one or more of the Proposed Transferees, at the purchase price determined in accordance with subsection (c) below. 
 (c) Purchase Price. The purchase price (“Purchase Price”) for the Shares purchased by the Company or its assignee(s) under this Section
will be the Offered Price. If the Offered Price includes consideration other than cash, the cash equivalent value of the non-cash consideration will be determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith. 
 (d) Payment. Payment of the Purchase Price will be made, at the option of the Company or its assignee(s), (i) by cash or check, (ii) by
cancellation of all or a portion of any outstanding indebtedness of the Holder to the Company (or, in the case of repurchase by an assignee, to the assignee), or (iii) by any combination thereof within thirty (30) days after receipt of the
Notice or in the manner and at the times set forth in the Notice. 
  

 -4- 

 (e) Holder’s Right to Transfer. If all of the Shares proposed in the Notice to be transferred
to a given Proposed Transferee are not purchased by the Company and/or its assignee(s) as provided in this Section, then the Holder may sell or otherwise transfer such Shares to that Proposed Transferee at the Offered Price or at a higher price,
provided that such sale or other transfer is consummated within ninety (90) days after the date of the Notice and provided further that any such sale or other transfer is effected in accordance with any applicable securities laws and the
Proposed Transferee agrees in writing that the provisions of this Section will continue to apply to the Shares in the hands of such Proposed Transferee. If the Shares described in the Notice are not transferred to the Proposed Transferee within such
period, a new Notice will be given to the Company, and the Company and/or its assignees will again be offered the Right of First Refusal before any Shares held by the Holder may be sold or otherwise transferred. 
 (f) Exception for Certain Family Transfers. Anything to the contrary contained in this Section notwithstanding, the transfer of any or all of the
Shares during the Purchaser’s lifetime or on the Purchaser’s death by will or intestacy to the Purchaser’s immediate family or a trust for the benefit of the Purchaser’s immediate family will be exempt from the provisions of this
Section, provided that the Purchaser notifies the Company in writing within thirty (30) days of said transfer. “Immediate Family” as used herein will mean spouse, lineal descendant or antecedent, father, mother, brother or sister. In
such case, the transferee or other recipient will receive and hold the Shares so transferred subject to the provisions of this Agreement, including but not limited to this Section 8 and Section 4, and there will be no further transfer of
such Shares except in accordance with the terms of this Section. 
 (g) Termination of Right of First Refusal. The Right of First
Refusal will terminate as to any Shares upon the earlier of (i) the first sale of Common Stock of the Company to the general public, or (ii) a Change in Control in which the successor corporation has equity securities that are publicly
traded. 
 9. Restrictive Legends; Stop-Transfer Orders; Refusal to Transfer. 
 (a) Purchaser understands and agrees that the Company will cause the legends set forth below or legends substantially equivalent thereto, to be placed
upon any certificate(s) evidencing ownership of the Shares together with any other legends that may be required by the Company or by applicable state or federal securities laws: 
 THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 (THE “ACT”) AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR
OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED UNLESS AND UNTIL REGISTERED UNDER THE ACT OR, IN THE OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER OF THESE SECURITIES, SUCH OFFER, SALE OR TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR HYPOTHECATION IS IN COMPLIANCE THEREWITH.

 THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER, A RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL, 

  

 -5- 

 
AND A REPURCHASE OPTION HELD BY THE ISSUER OR ITS ASSIGNEE(S) AS SET FORTH IN THE RESTRICTED STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE ISSUER AND THE ORIGINAL
HOLDER OF THESE SHARES, A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE ISSUER. SUCH TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS, RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL AND REPURCHASE OPTION ARE BINDING ON TRANSFEREES OF THESE SHARES. 
 THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTION ON TRANSFER FOR A PERIOD OF 180 DAYS FOLLOWING THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF THE
COMPANY’S INITIAL UNDERWRITTEN PUBLIC OFFERING AND MAY NOT BE SOLD OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF BY THE HOLDER WITHOUT THE CONSENT OF THE COMPANY OR THE MANAGING UNDERWRITER. 
 (b) Stop-Transfer Notices. Purchaser 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. 
 (c) Refusal to Transfer. The Company will 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 owner of such Shares or to accord the right to vote or pay dividends to any purchaser or other transferee to whom such Shares will have been so transferred.

 10. Lock-Up Period. Purchaser hereby agrees that Purchaser will not offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or
contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Common Stock (or other securities, including, without limitation,
the Shares) of the Company or enter into any swap, hedging or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company held by Purchaser
(other than those included in the registration) for a period specified by the representative of the underwriters of Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days following the effective date of a
registration statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act. 
 Purchaser agrees to execute and deliver such other agreements as may
be reasonably requested by the Company or the underwriter which are consistent with the foregoing or which are necessary to give further effect thereto. In addition, if requested by the Company or the representative of the underwriters of Common
Stock (or other securities) of the Company, Purchaser will provide, within ten (10) days of such request, such information as may be required by the Company or such representative in connection with the completion of any public offering of the
Company’s securities pursuant to a registration statement filed under the Securities Act. The obligations described in this Section will not apply to a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans on Form S-1 or Form S-8 or similar
forms that may be promulgated in the future, or a 

  

 -6- 

 
registration relating solely to a Commission Rule 145 transaction on Form S-4 or similar forms that may be promulgated in the future. The Company may impose
stop-transfer instructions with respect to the shares of Common Stock (or other securities) subject to the foregoing restriction until the end of said one hundred eighty (180) day period. Purchaser agrees that any transferee of any Option will
be bound by this Section. 
 11. Tax Consequences. Set forth below is a brief summary as of the date of grant of this Stock Purchase
Right of some of the federal tax consequences of exercise of this Stock Purchase Right and disposition of the Shares. THIS SUMMARY IS NECESSARILY INCOMPLETE, AND THE TAX LAWS AND REGULATIONS ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE. 
 Generally, no income will be recognized by Purchaser in connection with the exercise of the stock purchase right for shares subject to the Repurchase
Option, if an election under Section 83(b) of the Code is filed with the Internal Revenue Service within thirty (30) days of the date of exercise of the right to purchase stock. The form for making this election is attached as Exhibit
A-3 hereto. Otherwise, as the Company’s repurchase right lapses, Purchaser will recognize compensation income in an amount equal to the difference between the Fair Market Value of the stock at the time the Company’s repurchase right
lapses and the amount paid for the stock, if any (the “Spread”). If Purchaser is an Employee or former Employee, the Spread will be subject to tax withholding by the Company, and the Company will be entitled to a tax deduction in the
amount at the time the Purchaser recognizes ordinary income with respect to a Stock Purchase Right. Purchaser agrees to make appropriate arrangements with the Company (or the Parent or Subsidiary employing or retaining Purchaser) for the
satisfaction of all Federal, state, and local income and employment tax withholding requirements applicable to the purchase of Shares hereunder. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Company may refuse to honor the exercise and refuse to
deliver Shares if such withholding amounts are not delivered at the time of purchase. 
 The Administrator, in its sole discretion and
pursuant to such procedures as it may specify from time to time, may permit the Purchaser to satisfy such tax withholding obligation, in whole or in part by one or more of the following (without limitation): (i) paying cash, (ii) electing
to have the Company withhold otherwise deliverable Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the minimum amount required to be withheld, (iii) delivering to the Company already vested and owned Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the
amount required to be withheld, or (iv) selling a sufficient number of such Shares otherwise deliverable to Purchaser such means as the Company may determine in its sole discretion (whether through a broker or otherwise) equal to the amount
required to be withheld. 
 PURCHASER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT IS THE PURCHASER’S SOLE RESPONSIBILITY AND NOT THE COMPANY’S TO FILE
TIMELY THE ELECTION UNDER SECTION 83(b), EVEN IF THE PURCHASER REQUESTS THE COMPANY OR ITS REPRESENTATIVES TO MAKE THIS FILING ON THE PURCHASER’S BEHALF. 
 12. No Guarantee of Continued Service. PURCHASER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE RELEASE OF SHARES FROM THE REPURCHASE OPTION OF THE COMPANY PURSUANT TO SECTION 5 HEREOF IS EARNED ONLY BY CONTINUING 

  

 -7- 

 
SERVICE AS SERVICE PROVIDER AT THE WILL OF THE COMPANY (NOT THROUGH THE ACT OF BEING HIRED OR PURCHASING SHARES HEREUNDER). PURCHASER FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES
AND AGREES THAT THIS AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER AND THE VESTING SCHEDULE SET FORTH HEREIN DO NOT CONSTITUTE AN EXPRESS OR IMPLIED PROMISE OF CONTINUED ENGAGEMENT AS A SERVICE PROVIDER FOR THE VESTING PERIOD, FOR ANY PERIOD,
OR AT ALL, AND WILL NOT INTERFERE WITH PURCHASER’S RIGHT OR THE COMPANY’S RIGHT TO TERMINATE PURCHASER’S RELATIONSHIP AS A SERVICE PROVIDER AT ANY TIME, WITH OR WITHOUT CAUSE. 
 13. Notices. Any notice, demand or request required or permitted to be given by either the Company or the Purchaser pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement will be in writing and will be deemed given when delivered personally or deposited in the U.S. mail, First Class with postage prepaid, and addressed to the parties at the addresses of the parties set forth at the end of this Agreement or
such other address as a party may request by notifying the other in writing. 
 Any notice to the Escrow Holder will be sent to the
Company’s address with a copy to the other party not sending the notice. 
 14. No Waiver. Either party’s failure to enforce
any provision or provisions of this Agreement will not in any way be construed as a waiver of any such provision or provisions, nor prevent that party from thereafter enforcing each and every other provision of this Agreement. The rights granted
both parties herein are cumulative and will not constitute a waiver of either party’s right to assert all other legal remedies available to it under the circumstances. 
 15. Successors and Assigns. The Company may assign any of its rights under this Agreement to single or multiple assignees, and this Agreement will
inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Company. Subject to the restrictions on transfer herein set forth, this Agreement will be binding upon Purchaser and his or her heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns.

 16. Interpretation. Any dispute regarding the interpretation of this Agreement will be submitted by Purchaser or by the Company
forthwith to the Administrator which will review such dispute at its next regular meeting. The resolution of such a dispute by the Administrator will be final and binding on all parties. 
 17. Governing Law; Severability. This Agreement is governed by the internal substantive laws but not the choice of law rules, of California.

 18. Entire Agreement. The Plan is incorporated herein by reference. This Agreement (including the exhibits referenced herein), the
Plan, and the Investment Representation Statement constitute the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede in their entirety all prior undertakings and agreements of the Company and Purchaser with
respect to the subject matter hereof, and may not be modified adversely to the Purchaser’s interest except by means of a writing signed by the Company and Purchaser. 
  

 -8- 

 By Purchaser’s signature below, Purchaser represents that he or she is familiar with the terms and
provisions of the Plan, and hereby accepts this Agreement subject to all of the terms and provisions thereof. Purchaser has reviewed the Plan and this Agreement in their entirety, has had an opportunity to obtain the advice of counsel prior to
executing this Agreement and fully understands all provisions of this Agreement. Purchaser agrees to accept as binding, conclusive and final all decisions or interpretations of the Administrator upon any questions arising under the Plan or this
Agreement. Purchaser further agrees to notify the Company upon any change in the residence indicated in the Notice of Grant of Stock Purchase Right.

 JOINT ESCROW INSTRUCTIONS 
 ____________________, ____ 
 Alien Technology Corporation 
 18220 Butterfield Boulevard 
 Morgan Hill, CA 95037 
 Attention: [Corporate Secretary] 
 Dear [Corporate Secretary]: 
 As Escrow Agent for both Alien Technology Corporation (the

Agreement (“Agreement”) between the Company and the undersigned, in accordance with the following instructions: 
 1. In the event
the Company and/or any assignee of the Company (referred to collectively for convenience herein as the “Company”) exercises the Company’s repurchase option set forth in the Agreement (the “Repurchase Option”), the Company
will give to Purchaser and you a written notice specifying the number of shares of stock to be purchased, the purchase price, and the time for a closing hereunder at the principal office of the Company. Purchaser and the Company hereby irrevocably
authorize and direct you to close the transaction contemplated by such notice in accordance with the terms of said notice. 
 2. At the
closing, you are directed (a) to date the stock assignments necessary for the transfer in question, (b) to fill in the number of shares being transferred, and (c) to deliver same, together with the certificate evidencing the shares of
stock to be transferred, to the Company or its assignee, against the simultaneous delivery to you of the purchase price (by cash, a check, or some combination thereof) for the number of shares of stock being purchased pursuant to the exercise of the
Company’s Repurchase Option. 
 3. Purchaser irrevocably authorizes the Company to deposit with you any certificates evidencing shares
of stock to be held by you hereunder and any additions and substitutions to said shares as defined in the Agreement. Purchaser does hereby irrevocably constitute and appoint you as Purchaser’s attorney-in-fact and agent for the term of this
escrow to execute with respect to such securities all documents necessary or appropriate to make such securities negotiable and to complete any transaction herein contemplated, including but not limited to the filing with any applicable state blue
sky authority of any required applications for consent to, or notice of transfer of, the securities. Subject to the provisions of this paragraph 3, Purchaser will exercise all rights and privileges of a shareholder of the Company while the
stock is held by you. 

 4. Upon written request of the Purchaser, but no more than once per calendar year, unless the
Company’s Repurchase Option has been exercised, you will deliver to Purchaser a certificate or certificates representing so many shares of stock as are not then subject to the Company’s Repurchase Option. Within ninety (90) days after
cessation of Purchaser’s continuous employment by or services to the Company, or any parent or subsidiary of the Company, you will deliver to Purchaser a certificate or certificates representing the aggregate number of shares held or issued
pursuant to the Agreement and not purchased by the Company or its assignees pursuant to exercise of the Company’s Repurchase Option. 
 5. If at the time of termination of this escrow you should have in your possession any documents, securities, or other property belonging to Purchaser, you will deliver all of the same to Purchaser and will be discharged of all further
obligations hereunder. 
 6. Your duties hereunder may be altered, amended, modified or revoked only by a writing signed by all of the
parties hereto. 
 7. You will be obligated only for the performance of such duties as are specifically set forth herein and may rely and
will be protected in relying or refraining from acting on any instrument reasonably believed by you to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties. You will not be personally liable for any act you may do or omit
to do hereunder as Escrow Agent or as attorney-in-fact for Purchaser while acting in good faith, and any act done or omitted by you pursuant to the advice of your own attorneys will be conclusive evidence of such good faith. 
 8. You are hereby expressly authorized to disregard any and all warnings given by any of the parties hereto or by any other person or corporation,
excepting only orders or process of courts of law and are hereby expressly authorized to comply with and obey orders, judgments or decrees of any court. In case you obey or comply with any such order, judgment or decree, you will not be liable to
any of the parties hereto or to any other person, firm or corporation by reason of such compliance, notwithstanding any such order, judgment or decree being subsequently reversed, modified, annulled, set aside, vacated or found to have been entered
without jurisdiction. 
 9. You will not be liable in any respect on account of the identity, authorities or rights of the parties executing
or delivering or purporting to execute or deliver the Agreement or any documents or papers deposited or called for hereunder. 
 10. You will
not be liable for the outlawing of any rights under the Statute of Limitations with respect to these Joint Escrow Instructions or any documents deposited with you. 
 11. You will be entitled to employ such legal counsel and other experts as you may deem necessary properly to advise you in connection with your obligations hereunder, may rely upon the advice of such counsel, and may
pay such counsel reasonable compensation therefor. 
 12. Your responsibilities as Escrow Agent hereunder will terminate if you will cease to
be an officer or agent of the Company or if you will resign by written notice to each party. In the event of any such termination, the Company will appoint a successor Escrow Agent.

 13. If you reasonably require other or further instruments in connection with these Joint Escrow
Instructions or obligations in respect hereto, the necessary parties hereto will join in furnishing such instruments. 
 14. It is understood
and agreed that should any dispute arise with respect to the delivery and/or ownership or right of possession of the securities held by you hereunder, you are authorized and directed to retain in your possession without liability to anyone all or
any part of said securities until such disputes will have been settled either by mutual written agreement of the parties concerned or by a final order, decree or judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction after the time for appeal has expired and
no appeal has been perfected, but you will be under no duty whatsoever to institute or defend any such proceedings. 
 15. Any notice
required or permitted hereunder will be given in writing and will be deemed effectively given upon personal delivery or upon deposit in the United States Post Office, by registered or certified mail with postage and fees prepaid, addressed to each
of the other parties thereunto entitled at the following addresses or at such other addresses as a party may designate by ten (10) days advance written notice to each of the other parties hereto.

 INVESTMENT REPRESENTATION STATEMENT 
  

	PURCHASER	: 

  

	COMPANY	:         ALIEN TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION 

  

	SECURITY	:         COMMON STOCK 

  

	AMOUNT	: 

  

	DATE	: 

 In connection with the purchase of the above-listed Securities, the
undersigned Purchaser represents to the Company the following: 
 (a) Purchaser is aware of the Company’s business affairs and financial
condition and has acquired sufficient information about the Company to reach an informed and knowledgeable decision to acquire the Securities. Purchaser is acquiring these Securities for investment for Purchaser’s own account only and not with
a view to, or for resale in connection with, any “distribution” thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). 
 (b) Purchaser acknowledges and understands that the Securities constitute “restricted securities” under the Securities Act and have not been
registered under the Securities Act in reliance upon a specific exemption therefrom, which exemption depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of Purchaser’s investment intent as expressed herein. In this connection, Purchaser
understands that, in the view of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the statutory basis for such exemption may be unavailable if Purchaser’s representation was predicated solely upon a present intention to hold these Securities for the
minimum capital gains period specified under tax statutes, for a deferred sale, for or until an increase or decrease in the market price of the Securities, or for a period of one (1) year or any other fixed period in the future. Purchaser
further understands that the Securities must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. Purchaser further acknowledges and understands that the Company
is under no obligation to register the Securities. Purchaser understands that the certificate evidencing the Securities will be imprinted with a legend which prohibits the transfer of the Securities unless they are registered or such registration is
not required in the opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company, a legend prohibiting their transfer without the consent of the Commissioner of Corporations of the State of California and any other legend required under applicable state
securities laws. 
 (c) Purchaser is familiar with the provisions of Rule 701 and Rule 144, each promulgated under the Securities
Act, which, in substance, permit limited public resale of “restricted securities” acquired, directly or indirectly from the issuer thereof, in a non-public offering subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. Rule 701 provides
that if the issuer qualifies under Rule 701 at 

 
the time of the grant of the Stock Purchase Right to the Purchaser, the exercise will be exempt from registration under the Securities Act. In the event the
Company becomes subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, ninety (90) days thereafter (or such longer period as any market stand-off agreement may require) the Securities exempt
under Rule 701 may be resold, subject to the satisfaction of certain of the conditions specified by Rule 144, including: (1) the resale being made through a broker in an unsolicited “broker’s transaction” or in
transactions directly with a market maker (as said term is defined under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934); and, in the case of an affiliate, (2) the availability of certain public information about the Company, (3) the amount of
Securities being sold during any three (3) month period not exceeding the limitations specified in Rule 144(e), and (4) the timely filing of a Form 144, if applicable. 
 In the event that the Company does not qualify under Rule 701 at the time of grant of the Stock Purchase Right, then the Securities may be resold in
certain limited circumstances subject to the provisions of Rule 144, which requires the resale to occur not less than one (1) year after the later of the date the Securities were sold by the Company or the date the Securities were
sold by an affiliate of the Company, within the meaning of Rule 144; and, in the case of acquisition of the Securities by an affiliate, or by a non-affiliate who subsequently holds the Securities less than two (2) years, the satisfaction
of the conditions set forth in sections (1), (2), (3) and (4) of the paragraph immediately above. 
 (d) Purchaser further
understands that in the event all of the applicable requirements of Rule 701 or 144 are not satisfied, registration under the Securities Act, compliance with Regulation A, or some other registration exemption will be required; and that,
notwithstanding the fact that Rules 144 and 701 are not exclusive, the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission has expressed its opinion that persons proposing to sell private placement securities other than in a registered offering and
otherwise than pursuant to Rules 144 or 701 will have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an exemption from registration is available for such offers or sales, and that such persons and their respective brokers who participate in such
transactions do so at their own risk. Purchaser understands that no assurances can be given that any such other registration exemption will be available in such event.
