SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT

FOR EMPLOYEES OUTSIDE THE U.S.

Location                             

 

               Original Application    Enrollment Date:                 
               Change in Payroll Deduction Rate   
               Change of Beneficiary(ies)   

1.                      hereby elects to participate in the Trimble Navigation Limited Amended and Restated Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Stock Purchase Plan”) and subscribes to purchase shares of the Company’s Common Stock in accordance with this Subscription Agreement, including any special terms and conditions for my country in any appendix hereto (the “Appendix”) and the Stock Purchase Plan. All capitalized terms not defined in this Subscription Agreement shall have the same meanings as set forth in the Stock Purchase Plan.

2. I hereby authorize payroll deductions from each paycheck in the amount of     % of my Compensation on each payday (not to exceed 10%) during the Offering Period in accordance with the Stock Purchase Plan.

             Include bonuses as part of Compensation subject to payroll deduction.

             Exclude bonuses from Compensation subject to payroll deduction.

3. I understand that said payroll deductions shall be accumulated for the purchase of shares of Common Stock at the applicable purchase price determined in accordance with the Stock Purchase Plan. I understand that if I do not withdraw from an Offering Period, any accumulated payroll deductions will be used to automatically exercise my option.

4. I have received a copy of the complete “Trimble Navigation Limited Amended and Restated Employee Stock Purchase Plan.” I understand that my participation in the Stock Purchase Plan is in all respects subject to the terms of the Stock Purchase Plan. I understand that the grant of the option by the Company under this Subscription Agreement is subject to obtaining shareholder approval of the Stock Purchase Plan.

5. Shares purchased for me under the Stock Purchase Plan should be issued in the name(s) of:                                                      .


6. I understand that if I am a U.S. tax resident and I dispose of any shares received by me pursuant to the Stock Purchase Plan within 2 years after the Enrollment Date (the first day of the Offering Period during which I purchased such shares) or within 1 year after the Exercise Date, I will be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as having received ordinary income at the time of such disposition in an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares at the time such shares were delivered to me over the price which I paid for the shares. I hereby agree to notify the Company in writing within 30 days after the date of any such disposition. However, if I dispose of such shares at any time after the expiration of the holding period set forth above, I understand that I will be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as having received income only at the time of such disposition, and that such income will be taxed as ordinary income only to the extent of an amount equal to the lesser of (1) the excess of the fair market value of the shares at the time of such disposition over the purchase price which I paid for the shares under the option, or (2) the excess of the fair market value of the shares over the option price, measured as if the option had been exercised on the Enrollment Date. The remainder of the gain, if any, recognized on such disposition will be taxed as capital gain.

7. I hereby agree to be bound by the terms of the Stock Purchase Plan. The effectiveness of this Subscription Agreement is dependent upon my eligibility to participate in the Stock Purchase Plan.

8. Regardless of any action the Company or my employer (the “Employer”) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related items relating to my participation in the Stock Purchase Plan and legally applicable to me (“Tax-Related Items”), I acknowledge that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items is and remains my responsibility and that the Company and/or the Employer (1) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the stock purchase right grant, including the grant, purchase of shares, the subsequent sale of shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to such purchase and the receipt of any dividends; and (2) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the stock purchase rights to reduce or eliminate my liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if I have become subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction during the Offering Period, I acknowledge that the Company may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.

Prior to the purchase of shares, I shall pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, I authorize the Company and/or the Employer, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy the obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following: (a) withholding from Compensation paid in cash to me by the Company and/or the Employer; or (b) withholding from the proceeds of the sale of shares of Common Stock that I acquire, either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on my behalf pursuant to this authorization); or (c) withholding in shares of Common Stock to be issued to me.

To avoid negative accounting treatment, the Company and/or the Employer may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable statutory withholding amounts or other applicable withholding rates. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in shares of Common Stock, for tax purposes, I am deemed to have been issued the full number of shares of Common Stock purchased, notwithstanding that some shares of Common Stock are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of any aspect of my participation in the Stock Purchase Plan.

 

-2-


Finally, I shall pay to the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for as a result of my participation in the Stock Purchase Plan or my purchase of shares of Common Stock that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to honor the purchase and refuse to issue and/or deliver the shares of Common Stock if I fail to comply with my obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.

9. The Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding my participation in the Stock Purchase Plan, or my acquisition or sale of the underlying shares of Common Stock; and I am advised to consult with my own personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding my participation in the Stock Purchase Plan before taking any action related to the Stock Purchase Plan.

10. In accepting the grant, I acknowledge that: (a) the Stock Purchase Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, it is discretionary in nature and it may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time; (b) the grant of stock purchase rights is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants, or benefits in lieu of grants, even if stock purchase rights have been granted repeatedly in the past; (c) all decisions with respect to future grants of stock purchase rights, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company; (d) my participation in the Stock Purchase Plan shall not create a right to further employment with the Employer and shall not interfere with the ability of the Employer to terminate my employment relationship at any time with or without cause; (e) I am voluntarily participating in the Stock Purchase Plan; (f) the stock purchase rights and the underlying shares of Common Stock are an extraordinary item that does not constitute compensation of any kind for services of any kind rendered to the Company or the Employer, and which is outside the scope of my employment contract, if any; (g) the stock purchase rights and the underlying shares of Common Stock are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation; (h) the stock purchase rights are not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purposes, including, but not limited to, calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, unfair dismissal, end-of-service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar payments and in no event should be considered as compensation for, or relating in any way to, past services for the Company or the Employer or any Subsidiary; (i) the grant will not be interpreted to form an employment contract or relationship with the Company or any Subsidiary; (j) the future value of the underlying shares of Common Stock is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty; (k) the value of shares purchased may increase or decrease in value, even below the purchase price; (l) no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from termination of the stock purchase rights or diminution in value of the shares of Common Stock purchased under the Stock Purchase Plan resulting from termination of my employment by the Company or the Employer (for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of local labor laws), and, in consideration of the grant, to which I am not otherwise entitled, I irrevocably agree never to institute any claim against the Company or the Employer, waive my ability, if any, to bring any such claim, and release the Company and the Employer from any such claim; if, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is allowed by a court of competent jurisdiction, I shall be deemed irrevocably to have agreed not to pursue such claim and agree to execute any and all documents necessary to request dismissal or withdrawal of such claims; and (m) in the event of termination of my employment (whether or not in breach of local labor laws), my right to receive the stock purchase rights and purchase shares under the Stock Purchase Plan, if any, will terminate effective as of the date that I am no longer actively employed and will not be extended by any notice period mandated under local law (e.g., active employment would not include a period of “garden leave” or similar period pursuant to local law); furthermore, in the event of termination of employment (whether or not in breach of local labor laws) and the Board shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when I am no longer actively employed for purposes of my grant.

SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT

FOR EMPLOYEES OUTSIDE THE U.S.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

This Appendix, which is part of the Subscription Agreement, includes additional terms and conditions that govern my participation in the Stock Purchase Plan and that will apply to me if I am in one of the countries listed below. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms set forth in this Appendix shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Stock Purchase Plan or the Subscription Agreement.

NOTIFICATIONS

This Appendix also includes information regarding securities, exchange control and certain other issues of which I should be aware with respect to my participation in the Stock Purchase Plan. The information is based on the securities, exchange control and other laws in effect in the respective countries as of April 2010. Such laws are often complex and change frequently. As a result, the Company strongly recommends that I not rely on the information in this Appendix as the only source of information relating to the consequences of my participation in the Stock Purchase Plan because such information may be outdated when the shares of Common Stock are purchased and/or when I sell any shares acquired at purchase.

In addition, the information contained herein is general in nature and may not apply to my particular situation. As a result, the Company is not in a position to assure me of any particular result. The Company therefore advises me to seek appropriate professional advice as to how the relevant laws in my country may apply to my particular situation.

Finally, if I am a citizen or resident of a country other than that in which I currently am working, or transfer employment to a different country after the Enrollment Date, the information contained herein may not apply to me.

ALL EUROPEAN ECONOMIC AREA COUNTRIES

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Securities Law Restriction. If I work in a country located in the European Economic Area (“EEA”), my participation in the Stock Purchase Plan may be further limited as a result of applicable securities laws. Specifically, contributions from employees working in the EEA will be limited to less than an aggregate amount of €2.5 million on an annual basis. It is also possible that certain other equity awards in the EEA will count against this €2.5 million threshold. I understand that, if employees in the EEA elect to contribute more than this amount during any year, participation rates will be prorated to ensure that this threshold is not exceeded. If my participation will be prorated, I will receive a notice from the Company explaining the proration.

NETHERLANDS

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Securities Law Restriction. My participation in the Stock Purchase Plan may be limited pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Appendix for all EEA countries.

Withdrawal. I understand that, as provided by the Stock Purchase Plan, the Subscription Agreement and the prospectus, I may withdraw all but not less than all the payroll deductions credited to my account and not yet used to purchase shares at any time by giving written notice to the Company. I understand that all of my payroll deductions credited to my account will be paid to me promptly, without interest, after receipt of notice of withdrawal and that my participation during that Offering Period will be automatically terminated, and no further payroll deductions for the purchase of shares will be made during the Offering Period.

Nature of Grant. The following provision supplements Paragraph 10 of the Subscription Agreement:

In accepting the grant of purchase rights, I acknowledge that the purchase rights granted under the Stock Purchase Plan are intended as an incentive for me to remain employed with the Employer and are not intended as remuneration for labor performed.

NOTIFICATIONS

Securities Law Information. I am advised of Dutch insider-trading rules, which may impact the sale of shares purchased under the Stock Purchase Plan. In particular, I may be prohibited from effectuating certain transactions if I have inside information regarding the Company.

By accepting the purchase rights and participating in the Stock Purchase Plan, I acknowledge having read and understood this Securities Law Information and further acknowledge that it is my responsibility to comply with the following Dutch insider-trading rules.

Under Article 46 of the Act on the Supervision of the Securities Trade 1995, anyone who has “inside information” related to an issuing company is prohibited from effectuating a transaction in securities in or from the Netherlands. “Inside information” is defined as knowledge of details concerning the issuing company to which the securities relate, which is not public and which, if published, would reasonably be expected to affect the stock price, regardless of the development of the price. The insider could be an employee in the Netherlands who has inside information as described herein.

 

-14-


Given the broad scope of the definition of inside information, certain employees of the Company, the Employer or a Subsidiary working in the Netherlands (possibly including me) may have inside information and, thus, would be prohibited from effectuating a transaction in securities in the Netherlands at a time when in possession of such inside information.

Securities Law Information. The grant of purchase rights under the Stock Purchase Plan is being made on a private basis and is, therefore, exempt from registration in Singapore.

Director Notification. If I am a director, associate director or shadow director of a Singaporean Subsidiary, I must notify the Singaporean Subsidiary in writing within two days of receiving or disposing of an interest (e.g., purchase rights) in the Company or a Subsidiary, or within two days of becoming a director if such an interest exists at the time.

SOUTH AFRICA

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Withholding Taxes. The following provision supplements Paragraph 8 of the Subscription Agreement:

In accepting the grant and enrolling in the Stock Purchase Plan, I agree to notify the Employer of the amount of any gain I realize when I purchase shares of Common Stock under the Stock Purchase Plan. If I fail to notify the Employer of any gain realized at purchase, I may be liable for a fine. I will also be responsible for paying any difference between the actual tax liability and the amount withheld by the Employer in connection with my purchase of shares of Common Stock under the Stock Purchase Plan.

NOTIFICATIONS

Tax Clearance Certificate. I must obtain a Tax Clearance certificate (in Respect of Foreign Investment) from the South African Reserve Service prior to the end of the relevant Offering Period unless the Company or the Employer obtains the Certificate on my behalf. As I am solely responsible for complying with this requirement, I should confirm whether the Certificate has been obtained on my behalf or not prior to the end of the Offering Period. Certificates are valid up to six months. If I do not have a valid certificate, the Company may not allow me to purchase shares of Common Stock.

Exchange Control Information. Under current South African exchange policy, I am subject to a lifetime offshore investment allowance of ZAR4,000,000 (which includes shares of Common Stock purchased under the Stock Purchase Plan). I am solely responsible for ensuring that I do not exceed this limit. I should be aware that this is a cumulative allowance and that my ability to remit funds for the purchase of shares of Common Stock will be reduced if my foreign investment limit is utilized to make a transfer of funds offshore unrelated to the Stock Purchase Plan. If the ZAR4,000,000 limit will be exceeded, I may still participate in the Stock Purchase Plan; however, the shares of Common Stock purchased under the Stock Purchase Plan must be sold immediately and the full proceeds repatriated to South Africa. If the ZAR4,000,000 limit is not exceeded, I will not be required to immediately repatriate the sale proceeds to South Africa.

As the investment limit and other exchange control requirements are subject to change without notice, I should consult with my legal advisor prior to the purchase or sale of shares of Common Stock under the Stock Purchase Plan to ensure compliance with current regulations.

SPAIN

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Securities Law Restriction. My participation in the Stock Purchase Plan may be limited pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Appendix for all EEA countries.

Nature of Stock Purchase Plan. The following provisions supplement Paragraph 10 of the Subscription Agreement:

By signing the Subscription Agreement, I consent to participation in the Stock Purchase Plan and acknowledge that I have received a copy of the Stock Purchase Plan.

I understand that the Company has unilaterally, gratuitously and in its own discretion decided to offer the opportunity to participate in the Stock Purchase Plan to Employees in certain countries around the world. This is a limited decision that is entered into upon the express assumption and condition that such offer will not bind the Company or any Subsidiary, other than as set forth in the Subscription Agreement. Consequently, I understand that the offer to participate in the Stock Purchase Plan is extended on the assumption and condition that my participation and/or any shares of Common Stock acquired under the Stock Purchase Plan are not part of any employment contract (either with the Employer, the Company, or any Subsidiary) and shall not be considered a mandatory benefit, salary for any purpose (including severance compensation), or any right whatsoever. Furthermore, I understand that I shall not be entitled to continue participating in the Stock Purchase Plan once my status as an Employee terminates. In addition, I understand that the offer to participate in the Stock Purchase Plan would not have been made to me but for the assumptions and conditions referred to above; thus, I acknowledge and freely accept that, should any or all of the assumptions be mistaken, or should any of the conditions not be met, for any reason, any offer or right to participate in the Stock Purchase Plan shall be null and void.

Termination of Employment. Upon a termination of my status as Employee prior to the Exercise Date for any reason, including, without limitation, retirement, death, or a termination that is deemed to be an “unfair dismissal” or “constructive dismissal,” my participation in the Stock Purchase Plan will be terminated in accordance with Section 10(b) of the Stock Purchase Plan.

Joint Election. As a condition of participation in the Stock Purchase Plan and the purchase of shares, I agree to accept any liability for secondary Class 1 National Insurance contributions which may be payable by the Company and/or the Employer in connection with the purchase rights and any event giving rise to Tax-Related Items (the “Employer NICs”). Without prejudice to the foregoing, I agree to execute a joint election with the Company, the form of such joint election having been approved formally by Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs (“HMRC”) (the “Joint Election”), and any other required consent or election. I further agree to execute such other joint elections as may be required between me and any successor to the Company or the Employer. I further agree that the Company or the Employer may collect the Employer NICs from me by any of the means set forth in Paragraph 8 of the Subscription Agreement.

If I do not enter into a Joint Election prior to the Exercise Date, I will not be entitled to purchase the shares unless and until I enter into a Joint Election, and no shares will be issued to me under the Stock Purchase Plan, without any liability to the Company or the Employer.

Tax Obligations. The following provision supplements Paragraph 8 of the Subscription Agreement:

I agree that, if I do not pay or the Company or the Employer does not withhold from me, the full amount of Tax-Related Items that I owe at purchase of the shares, or the release or assignment of these purchase rights for consideration, or the receipt of any other benefit in connection with these purchase rights (the “Taxable Event”) within 90 days after the Taxable Event, or such other period specified in Section 222(1)(c) of the U.K. Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003, the amount that should have been withheld shall constitute a loan owed by me to the Company and/or the Employer, effective 90 days after the Taxable Event. I agree that the loan will bear interest at the official HMRC rate and immediately will be due and repayable by me, and the Company and/or the Employer may recover it at any time thereafter by withholding such amount from Compensation or any other funds due to me by the Company or the Employer, by withholding in shares issued upon purchase or from the cash proceeds from the sale of shares or by demanding cash or a check from me. I also authorize the Company to delay the issuance of any shares to me unless and until the loan is repaid in full.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if I am an executive officer or director within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the terms of the immediately foregoing provision will not apply. In the event that I am an executive officer or director and Tax-Related Items are not collected within 90 days of the Taxable Event, the amount of any uncollected Tax-Related Items may constitute a benefit to me on which additional income tax and National Insurance contributions may be payable. I acknowledge that the Company and/or the Employer may recover any such additional income tax and National Insurance contributions at any time thereafter by any of the means referred to in Paragraph 8 of the Subscription Agreement.
