1988 EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN
(as amended January 19, 2006)

The following constitute the provisions of the Employee Stock Purchase Plan of Trimble Navigation.

1.     Purpose. The purpose of the Plan is to provide employees of the Company and its Designated Subsidiaries with an opportunity to purchase Common Stock of the Company through accumulated payroll deductions. It is the intention of the Company to have the Plan qualify as an "Employee Stock Purchase Plan" under Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The provisions of the Plan shall, accordingly, be construed so as to extend and limit participation in a manner consistent with the requirements of that section of the Code.

2.     Definitions.

(a)   "Board" shall mean the Board of Directors of the Company.

(b)   "Code" shall mean the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

(c)   "Common Stock" shall mean the Common Stock of the Company.

(d)   "Company" shall mean Trimble Navigation.

(e)   "Compensation" shall mean all regular straight time gross earnings, commissions, incentive bonuses, overtime, shift premium, lead pay and other similar compensation, but excluding automobile allowances, relocation and other non-cash compensation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Employee may elect to exclude bonuses from the calculation of compensation.

(f)   "Continuous Status as an Employee" shall mean the absence of any interruption or termination of service as an Employee. Continuous Status as an Employee shall not be considered interrupted in the case of a leave of absence agreed to in writing by the Company, provided that such leave is for a period of not more than 90 days or reemployment upon the expiration of such leave is guaranteed by contract or statute.

(g)   "Designated Subsidiaries" shall mean the Subsidi-aries which have been designated by the Board from time to time in its sole discretion as eligible to participate in the Plan.

(h)   "Employee" shall mean any person, including an officer, whose customary employment with the Company is at least twenty (20) hours per week by the Company or one of its Designated Subsidiaries and more than five (5) months in any calendar year.

(i)   "Enrollment Date" shall mean the first day of each Offering Period.




(j)   "Exercise Date" shall mean the last day of each Offering Period.

(k)   "Offering Period" shall mean, except with respect to the first Offering Period as described herein, a period of six (6) months during which an option granted pursuant to the Plan may be exercised. The first Offering Period shall commence August 15, 1988, and end December 31, 1988.

(l)   "Plan" shall mean this Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

(m)         "Subsidiary" shall mean a corporation, domestic or foreign, of which not less than 50% of the voting shares are held by the Company or a Subsidiary, whether or not such corporation now exists or is hereafter organized or acquired by the Company or a Subsidiary.

3.     Eligibility.

(a)   Any Employee as defined in paragraph 2 who has been continuously employed by the Company for at least two (2) consecu-tive months and who shall be employed by the Company on a given Enrollment Date shall be eligible to participate in the Plan. However, notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of the first Offering Period only, any Employee defined in paragraph 2 who was employed by the Company as of August 9, 1988 shall be eligible to participate in the Plan.

(b)   Any provisions of the Plan to the contrary notwith-standing, no Employee shall be granted an option under the Plan (i) if, immediately after the grant, such Employee (or any other person whose stock would be attributed to such Employee pursuant to Section 425(d) of the Code) would own stock and/or hold outstanding options to purchase stock possessing five percent (5%) or more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of stock of the Company or of any subsidiary of the Company, or (ii) which permits his or her rights to purchase stock under all employee stock purchase plans of the Company and its subsidiaries to accrue at a rate which exceeds Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000) worth of stock (determined at the fair market value of the shares at the time such option is granted) for each calendar year in which such option is outstanding at any time.

4.     Offering Periods. The Plan shall be implemented by consecutive Offering Periods with a new Offering Period commencing on or about January 1 and July 1 of each year; provided, however, that the first Offering Period shall commence on or about August 15, 1988. The Plan shall continue thereafter until termi-nated in accordance with paragraph 19 hereof. Subject to the shareholder approval requirements of paragraph 19, the Board of Directors of the Company shall have the power to change the dura-tion of Offering Periods with respect to future offerings without shareholder approval if such change is announced at least fifteen (15) days prior to the scheduled beginning of the first Offering Period to be affected.

5.     Participation.

(a)   An eligible Employee may become a participant in the Plan by completing a subscription agreement authorizing payroll deductions in the form of Exhibit A to this Plan and filing it with the Company's payroll office at least five (5) business days prior to the applicable Enrollment Date, unless a later time for filing the subscription agreement is set by the Board for all eligible Employees with respect to a given Offering Period.

- 2 -


(b)   Payroll deductions for a participant shall commence on the first payroll following the Enrollment Date and shall end on the last payroll in the Offering Period to which such authorization is applicable, unless sooner terminated by the participant as provided in paragraph 10.

6.     Payroll Deductions.

(a)   At the time a participant files his or her subscrip-tion agreement, he or she shall elect to have payroll deductions made on each payday during the Offering Period in an amount not exceeding ten percent (10%) of the Compensation which he receives on each payday during the Offering Period, and the aggregate of such payroll deductions during the Offering Period shall not exceed ten percent (10%) of the participant's aggregate Compensation during said Offering Period.

(b)   All payroll deductions made for a participant shall be credited to his or her account under the Plan. A participant may not make any additional payments into such account.

(c)   A participant may discontinue his or her participa-tion in the Plan as provided in paragraph 10, or may decrease, but not increase, the rate of his or her payroll deductions during the Offering Period (within the limitations of Section 6(a)) by com-pleting or filing with the Company a new subscription agreement authorizing a change in payroll deduction rate. The change in rate shall be effective with the first full payroll period following five (5) business days after the Company's receipt of the new subscription agreement. A participant's subscription agreement shall remain in effect for successive Offering Periods unless revised as provided herein or terminated as provided in paragraph 10.

(d)   Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent neces-sary to comply with Section 423(b)(8) of the Code and para-graph 3(b) herein, a participant's payroll deductions may be decreased to 0% at such time during any Offering Period which is scheduled to end during the current calendar year (the "Current Offering Period") that the aggregate of all payroll deductions which were previously used to purchase stock under the Plan in a prior Offering Period which ended during that calendar year plus all payroll deductions accumulated with respect to the Current Offering Period equal $21,250. Payroll deductions shall recommence at the rate provided in such participant's subscription agreement at the beginning of the first Offering Period which is scheduled to end in the following calendar year, unless terminated by the participant as provided in paragraph 10.

7.     Grant of Option.

(a)   On the Enrollment Date of each Offering Period, each eligible Employee participating in such Offering Period shall be granted an option to purchase on each Exercise Date during such Offering Period up to a number of shares of the Company's Common Stock determined by dividing such Employee's payroll deductions accumulated prior to such Exercise Date and retained in the Partic-ipant's account as of the Exercise Date by the lower of (i) eighty-five percent (85%) of the fair market value of a share of the Company's Common Stock on the Enrollment Date or (ii) eighty-five percent (85%) of the fair market value of a share of the Company's Common Stock on the Exercise Date; provided that in no event shall an Employee be permitted to purchase during each Offering Period more than a number of shares determined by dividing $12,500 by the fair market value of a share of the Company's Common Stock on the Enrollment Date, and provided further that such purchase shall be subject to the limitations set forth in Section 3(b) and 12 hereof. Exercise of the option shall occur as provided in Section 8, unless the participant has withdrawn pursuant to Section 10, and shall expire on the last day of the Offering Period. Fair market value of a share of the Company's Common Stock shall be determined as provided in Section 7(b) herein.

- 3 -


(b)   The option price per share of the shares offered in a given Offering Period shall be the lower of: (i) 85% of the fair market value of a share of the Common Stock of the Company on the Enrollment Date; or (ii) 85% of the fair market value of a share of the Common Stock of the Company on the Exercise Date. The fair market value of the Company's Common Stock on a given date shall be determined by the Board in its discretion; provided, however, that where there is a public market for the Common Stock, the fair market value per share shall be the closing price of the Common Stock for such date, as reported by the NASDAQ National Market System, or, in the event the Common Stock is listed on a stock exchange, the fair market value per share shall be the closing price on such exchange on such date, as reported in the Wall Street Journal.

8.     Exercise of Option. Unless a participant withdraws from the Plan as provided in paragraph 10 below, his or her option for the purchase of shares will be exercised automatically on the Exercise Date, and the maximum number of full shares subject to option shall be purchased for such participant at the applicable option price with the accumulated payroll deductions in his or her account. No fractional shares will be purchased and any payroll deductions accumulated in a participant's account which are not used to purchase shares shall remain in the participant's account for the subsequent Offering Period, subject to an earlier with-drawal as provided in paragraph 10. During a participant's life-time, a participant's option to purchase shares hereunder is exercisable only by him or her.

9.                 Delivery. Unless a participant makes an election to delay the issuance of Certificate representing purchased shares, as promptly as practicable after each Exercise Date on which a pur-chase of shares occurs, the Company shall arrange the delivery to each participant, as appropriate, of a certificate representing the shares purchased upon exercise of his or her option. A partic-ipant may make an election to delay the issuance of stock certifi-cates representing shares purchased under the Plan by giving written notice to the Company the form of Exhibit D to this Plan. Any such election shall remain in effect until it is revoked by the participant or, if earlier, upon the termination of the partic-ipant's Continuous Status as an Employee. The Company may limit the time or times during which participants may revoke such elec-tions, except that a participant shall automatically receive a certificate as soon as practicable following termination of his or her Continuous Status as an Employee and that participants shall be given the opportunity to revoke such elections at least once each calendar year.

- 4 -


10.               Withdrawal; Termination of Employment.

(a)   A participant may withdraw all but not less than all the payroll deductions credited to his or her account and not yet used to exercise his or her option under the Plan at any time by giving written notice to the Company in the form of Exhibit B to this Plan. All of the participant's payroll deductions credited to his or her account will be paid to such participant promptly after receipt of notice of withdrawal and such participant's option for the Offering Period will be automatically terminated, and no further payroll deductions for the purchase of shares will be made during the Offering Period. If a participant withdraws from an Offering Period, payroll deductions will not resume at the begin-ning of the succeeding Offering Period unless the participant delivers to the Company a new subscription agreement.

(b)   Upon termination of the participant's Continuous Status as an Employee prior to the Exercise Date for any reason, including retirement or death, the payroll deductions credited to such participant's account during the Offering Period but not yet used to exercise the option will be returned to such participant or, in the case of his or her death, to the person or persons entitled thereto under paragraph 14, and such participant's option will be automatically terminated.

(c)   In the event an Employee fails to remain in Contin-uous Status as an Employee of the Company for at least twenty (20) hours per week during an Offering Period in which the Employee is a participant, he or she will be deemed to have elected to withdraw from the Plan and the payroll deductions credited to his or her account will be returned to such participant and such participant's option terminated.

(d)   A participant's withdrawal from an Offering Period will not have any effect upon his or her eligibility to participate in any similar plan which may hereafter be adopted by the Company or in succeeding Offering Periods which commence after the termination of the Offering Period from which the participant withdraws.

11.   Interest. No interest shall accrue on the payroll deductions of a participant in the Plan.

12.   Stock.

(a)   The maximum number of shares of the Company's Common Stock which shall be made available for sale under the Plan shall be 5,775,000 shares, subject to adjustment upon changes in capitali-zation of the Company as provided in paragraph 18. If on a given Exercise Date the number of shares with respect to which options are to be exercised exceeds the number of shares then available under the Plan, the Company shall make a pro rata allocation of the shares remaining available for purchase in as uniform a manner as shall be practicable and as it shall determine to be equitable.

(b)   The participant will have no interest or voting right in shares covered by his option until such option has been exercised.

(c)   Shares to be delivered to a participant under the Plan will be registered in the name of the participant or in the name of the participant and his or her spouse.

13.   Administration. The Plan shall be administered by the Board of the Company or a committee of members of the Board appointed by the Board. The administration, interpretation or application of the Plan by the Board or its committee shall be final, conclusive and binding upon all participants. Members of the Board who are eligible Employees are permitted to participate in the Plan.

- 5 -



14.   Designation of Beneficiary.

(a)   A participant may file a written designation of a beneficiary who is to receive any shares and cash, if any, from the participant's account under the Plan in the event of such partici-pant's death subsequent to an Exercise Date on which the option is exercised but prior to delivery to such participant of such shares and cash. In addition, a participant may file a written designa-tion of a beneficiary who is to receive any cash from the partici-pant's account under the Plan in the event of such participant's death prior to exercise of the option.

(b)   Such designation of beneficiary may be changed by the participant at any time by written notice. In the event of the death of a participant and in the absence of a beneficiary validly designated under the Plan who is living at the time of such partic-ipant's death, the Company shall deliver such shares and/or cash to the executor or administrator of the estate of the participant, or if no such executor or administrator has been appointed (to the knowledge of the Company), the Company, in its discretion, may deliver such shares and/or cash to the spouse or to any one or more dependents or relatives of the participant, or if no spouse, dependent or relative is known to the Company, then to such other person as the Company may designate.

15.   Transferability. Neither payroll deductions credited to a participant's account nor any rights with regard to the exercise of an option or to receive shares under the Plan may be assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of in any way (other than by will, the laws of descent and distribution or as provided in paragraph 14 hereof) by the participant. Any such attempt at assignment, transfer, pledge or other disposition shall be without effect, except that the Company may treat such act as an election to withdraw funds from an Offering Period in accordance with paragraph 10.

16.   Use of Funds. All payroll deductions received or held by the Company under the Plan may be used by the Company for any corporate purpose, and the Company shall not be obligated to segregate such payroll deductions.

17.   Reports. Individual accounts will be maintained for each participant in the Plan. Statements of account will be given to participating Employees semi-annually promptly following the Exercise Date, which statements will set forth the amounts of payroll deductions, the per share purchase price, the number of shares purchased and the remaining cash balance, if any.

18.   Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization. Subject to any required action by the shareholders of the Company, the number of shares of Common Stock covered by each option under the Plan which has not yet been exercised and the number of shares of Common Stock which have been authorized for issuance under the Plan but have not yet been placed under option (collectively, the "Reserves"), as well as the price per share of Common Stock covered by each option under the Plan which has not yet been exercised, shall be proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock resulting from a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination or reclas-sification of the Common Stock, or any other increase or decrease in the number of shares of Common Stock effected without receipt of consideration by the Company; provided, however, that conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be deemed to have been "effected without receipt of consideration". Such adjustment shall be made by the Board, whose determination in that respect shall be final, binding and conclusive. Except as expressly provided herein, no issue by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number or price of shares of Common Stock subject to an option.

- 6 -



In the event of the proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the Offering Period will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed action, unless otherwise provided by the Board. In the event of a proposed sale of all or substan-tially all of the assets of the Company, or the merger of the Com-pany with or into another corporation, any Purchase Periods then in progress shall be shortened by setting a new Exercise Date (the "New Exercise Date") and any Offering Periods then in progress shall end on the New Exercise Date. The New Exercise Date shall be before the date of the Company's proposed sale or merger. The Board shall notify each participant in writing, at least ten (10) business days prior to the New Exercise Date, that the Exercise Date for the participant's option has been changed to the New Exercise Date and that the participant's option shall be exercised automatically on the New Exercise Date, unless prior to such date the participant has with-drawn from the Offering Period as provided in Section 10 hereof.

19.   Amendment or Termination. The Board of Directors of the Company may at any time and for any reason terminate or amend the Plan. Except as provided in paragraph 18, no such termination can affect options previously granted, provided that an Offering Period may be terminated by the Board of Directors on any Exercise Date if the Board determines that the termination of the Plan is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. Except as provided in paragraph 18, no amendment may make any change in any option theretofore granted which adversely affects the rights of any participant. In addition, to the extent necessary to comply with Section 423 of the Code (or any successor rule or provision or any other applicable law or regula-tion), the Company shall obtain shareholder approval in such a manner and to such a degree as so required.

20.   Notices. All notices or other communications by a participant to the Company under or in connection with the Plan shall be deemed to have been duly given when received in the form specified by the Company at the location, or by the person, designated by the Company for the receipt thereof.

21.   Shareholder Approval. Continuance of the Plan shall be subject to approval by the shareholders of the Company within twelve months before or after the date the Plan is adopted. Such shareholder approval shall be obtained in the manner and degree required under the applicable state and federal tax and securities laws.

22.   Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares. Shares shall not be issued with respect to an option unless the exercise of such option and the issuance and delivery of such shares pursuant thereto shall comply with all applicable provisions of law, domestic or foreign, including, without limitation, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Exchange Act, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and the requirements of any stock exchange upon which the shares may then be listed, and shall be further subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such compliance.

- 7 -


As a condition to the exercise of an option, the Company may require the person exercising such option to represent and warrant at the time of any such exercise that the shares are being purchased only for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such shares if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation is required by any of the aforementioned applicable provisions of law.

23.         Term of Plan. The Plan shall become effective upon the earlier to occur of its adoption by the Board of Directors or its approval by the shareholders of the Company as described in para-graph 21. It shall continue in effect for a term of twenty (20) years unless sooner terminated under paragraph 19.
