2020 INCENTIVE PLAN
1.Award of Restricted Stock Units.
a.Award. Energy Recovery, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) hereby grants as of the Date of Grant set forth in the Restricted Stock Unit Grant Notice (the “Grant Notice”) to the Grantee (the “Grantee”) named in the Grant Notice an Award with respect to the number of Restricted Stock Units set forth in the Grant Notice, subject to the terms and provisions of the Grant Notice, this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement and the Addendum (collectively this “Agreement”), and the Company’s 2020 Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). Each Restricted Stock Unit represents the right to receive one share of Common Stock of the Company (a “Share”) on the date the Restricted Stock Units vest. Unless and until the Restricted Stock Units are vested in the manner set forth in Section 2 hereof, the Grantee shall have no right to settlement of any such Restricted Stock Units. Prior to settlement of any vested Restricted Stock Units, such Restricted Stock Units represent an unsecured obligation of the Company, payable (if at all) from the general assets of the Company.
b.Definitions. All capitalized terms used in this Agreement without definition shall have the meanings ascribed in the Plan and the Grant Notice.
c.Incorporation of Terms of Plan. The award of Restricted Stock Units is subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan which are incorporated herein by reference. In the event of any inconsistency between the Plan and this Agreement, the terms of the Plan shall control.
2.Vesting and Forfeiture.
a.Forfeiture. Any Restricted Stock Units which are not vested as of the date the Grantee ceases to serve as a Director shall thereupon be forfeited immediately and without any further action by the Company. The date of ceasing to be a Director shall not be extended to include any notice of termination or similar period and shall be considered ceased on the last active day of Service (as determined by the Committee) for the purposes of the Plan.
b.Vesting. Subject to Section 2(a) hereof, the Restricted Stock Units shall vest in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth on the Grant Notice, provided the Grantee remains in continuous Service during the entire period commencing on the Vesting Commencement Date and ending on the applicable vesting date. The Grantee’s active Service does not terminate when the Grantee goes on a military leave, a sick leave or another bona fide leave of absence, if the leave was approved by the Company in writing. However, the Grantee’s active Service terminates when the approved leave ends, unless the Grantee immediately returns to active work. If the Grantee goes on a leave of absence, then the vesting schedule specified in the Grant Notice may be adjusted in accordance with the Company’s leave of absence policy or the terms of the Grantee’s leave if permissible under applicable local law. If the Grantee commences working on a part-time basis, then the vesting schedule specified in the Grant Notice may be adjusted in accordance with the Company’s part-time work policy or the terms of an agreement between the Grantee and the Company pertaining to the Grantee’s part-time schedule if permissible under applicable local law.
3.Settlement.
a.Time and Form of Payment. Subject to the terms of the Plan and this Agreement, any Restricted Stock Units that vest and become nonforfeitable shall be settled in whole Shares, which shall be issued in book-entry form, registered in the Grantee’s name. Such settlement shall be made as soon as practicable, but no later than 60 days, following the date of vesting. The value of any fractional Restricted Stock Units shall be paid in cash at the time the Shares are delivered in settlement of the Restricted Stock Units.
b.Conditions to Settlement of Restricted Stock Units. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement (including without limitation Section 2(b)):
(i)No Shares shall be issued to the Grantee or his or her legal representative unless and until the Grantee or his or her legal representative shall have satisfied all applicable tax withholding obligations pursuant to Section 4 hereof.
(ii)The Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any Shares prior to the fulfillment of all of the following conditions: (A) the admission of the Shares subject to the award to listing on all stock exchanges on which the Common Stock is then listed; (B) the completion of any subject to the Award registration or other qualification of the Shares under any applicable securities law, any U.S. state or federal or foreign law, or under rulings or regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission or other governmental regulatory body, which the Committee shall, in its sole and absolute discretion, deem necessary and advisable, or if the offering of the Shares is not so registered, a determination by the Company that the issuance of the Shares would be exempt from any such registration or qualification requirements; (C) the obtaining of any approval or other clearance from any state or federal or foreign governmental agency that the Committee shall, in its absolute discretion, determine to be necessary or advisable; and (D) the lapse of any such reasonable period of time following the date the Restricted Stock Units vest as the Committee may from time to time establish for reasons of administrative convenience.
4.Tax Obligations. Regardless of any action the Company and/or the Grantee’s actual employer (“the “Employer”), if the Company is not the Grantee’s employer, takes with respect to any or all income tax, social security, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to the Grantee’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to the Grantee (“Tax Obligations”), the Grantee hereby acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all Tax Obligations is and remains the Grantee’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company Employer. The Grantee further acknowledges that neither the Company nor the Employer (1) makes any representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax Obligations in connection with any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting or settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, the issuance of Shares upon settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such issuance and the receipt of any dividends and/or any dividend equivalents; and (2) does not commit to and is under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units to reduce or eliminate the Grantee’s liability for Tax Obligations or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if the Grantee has become subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction between the Date of Grant and the date of any relevant taxable event, the Grantee hereby acknowledges that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for Tax Obligations in more than one jurisdiction.
Prior to the relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, the Grantee shall pay or make arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all Tax Obligations. In this regard, the Grantee authorizes the Company and/or the Employer, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy the Tax Obligations by one or a combination of the following: (i) withholding from proceeds of the sale of shares of Common Stock issued upon vesting/settlement of the Restricted Stock Units either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on Xxxxxxx’s behalf pursuant to this authorization); or (ii) withholding in shares of Common Stock to be issued upon vesting/settlement of the Restricted Stock Units.
To avoid negative accounting treatment, the Company may withhold or account for Tax Obligations by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding amounts or other applicable withholding rates. If the obligation for Tax Obligations is satisfied by withholding in Shares, for tax purposes, the Grantee shall be deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject to the vested Restricted Stock Units, notwithstanding that a number of Shares are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax Obligations due as a result of any aspect of the Grantee’s participation in the Plan.
Finally, the Grantee shall pay to the Company any amount of Tax Obligations that the Company may be required to withhold or account for as a result of the Grantee’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Grantee hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Company may refuse to issue or deliver the Shares, any cash payments receivable at settlement or the proceeds of the sale of Shares, if the Grantee fails to comply with his or her obligations in connection with the Tax Obligations.
5.Restricted Stock Units and Interests Not Transferable. No Restricted Stock Units or any interest or right therein or part thereof shall be liable for the debts, contracts or engagements of the Grantee or his or her successors in interest or shall be subject to disposition by transfer, alienation, anticipation, pledge, encumbrance, assignment or any other means whether such disposition be voluntary or involuntary or by operation of law by judgment, levy, attachment, garnishment or any other legal or equitable proceedings (including bankruptcy), and any attempted disposition thereof shall be null and void and of no effect.
6.Rights as Stockholder. Neither the Grantee nor any person claiming under or through the Grantee shall have any of the rights or privileges of a stockholder of the Company in respect of any Shares issuable hereunder unless and until certificates representing such Shares (which may be in uncertificated form) will have been issued and recorded on the books and records of the Company or its transfer agents or registrars, and delivered to the Grantee (including through electronic delivery to a brokerage account). After such issuance, recordation and delivery, the Grantee shall have all the rights of a stockholder of the Company, including with respect to the right to vote the Shares and the right to receive any cash or share dividends or other distributions paid to or made with respect to the Shares.
7.Restrictions on Resale. The Grantee hereby agrees not to sell any Shares at a time when applicable laws, Company policies or an agreement between the Company and/or its underwriters prohibit a sale. This restriction (if any) will apply as long as the Grantee’s Service continues and for such period of time after the termination of the Grantee’s Service as the Company may specify.
8.Adjustments. The number of Restricted Stock Units awarded pursuant to this Agreement is subject to adjustment as provided in Article 10 of the Plan. The Grantee shall be notified of such adjustment and such adjustment shall be binding upon the Company and the Grantee.
9.NO GUARANTEE OF CONTINUED SERVICE. THE GRANTEE HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE VESTING OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS PURSUANT TO THE VESTING SCHEDULE HEREOF IS EARNED ONLY BY CONTINUING TO PROVIDE SERVICE AS AN EMPLOYEE OR CONSULTANT AT THE WILL OF THE EMPLOYER OR THE COMPANY ENGAGING THE CONSULTANT (AND NOT THROUGH THE ACT OF BEING HIRED, BEING AWARDED RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS, OR RECEIVING CASH OR SHARES HEREUNDER). THE GRANTEE 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 AN EMPLOYEE OR CONSULTANT, AS APPLICABLE, FOR THE VESTING PERIOD, FOR ANY PERIOD, OR AT ALL, AND SHALL NOT INTERFERE WITH THE GRANTEE’S RIGHT OR THE GRANTEE’S EMPLOYER’S RIGHT TO TERMINATE THE GRANTEE’S RELATIONSHIP AS AN EMPLOYEE OR CONSULTANT AT ANY TIME, WITH OR WITHOUT CAUSE, AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE LOCAL LAW.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Plan and this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such laws, rules and regulations.
12.Interpretation and Amendments. The award of Restricted Stock Units, the vesting and delivery of Restricted Stock Units and the issuance of Shares upon vesting are subject to, and shall be administered in accordance with, the provisions of the Plan, as the same may be amended from time to time, provided that no amendment may, without the consent of the Grantee, affect the rights of the Grantee under this award of Restricted Stock Units in a materially adverse manner. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, an amendment that affects the tax treatment of the Restricted Stock Units shall not be considered as affecting the Grantee’s rights in a materially adverse manner.
13.Headings. The captions used in the Grant Notice and this Agreement are inserted for convenience and shall not be deemed a part of the award of Restricted Stock Units for construction or interpretation.

17.Code Section 409A. For Grantees subject to tax in the U.S., the vesting and settlement of Restricted Stock Units awarded pursuant to this Agreement are intended to qualify for the “short-term deferral” exemption from Section 409A of the Code. The Company reserves the right, to the extent the Company deems necessary or advisable in its sole discretion, to unilaterally amend or modify the Plan and/or this Agreement to ensure that the Restricted Stock Units qualify for exemption from or comply with Section 409A of the Code; provided, however, that the Company makes no representations that the Restricted Stock Units will be exempt from Section 409A of the Code and makes no undertaking to preclude Section 409A of the Code from applying to these Restricted Stock Units.
