Amended and Restated Letter Agreement

This amended and restated letter agreement (this “Letter Agreement”) amends, restates and supersedes in its entirety that certain letter agreement dated April 22, 2013, between P2 Capital Partners, LLC (“P2 Capital”) and UTi Worldwide Inc. (“UTi”) setting forth, among other things, the terms under which Josh Paulson, an executive with P2 Capital (the “Candidate”), would be appointed to the Board of Directors of UTi (the “Board”).

In accordance with our recent discussions, this Letter Agreement sets forth certain understandings among the parties in connection with the purchase by a certain affiliate of P2 Capital of certain convertible preferred shares sold by UTi pursuant to the Share Purchase Agreement dated as of February 26, 2014, between UTi and P2 Capital Master Fund X, L.P. (the “Share Purchase Agreement”, the closing of such purchase, the “Closing”). The effectiveness of this Letter Agreement shall be conditioned upon the Closing, and until the Closing, the existing letter agreement dated April 22, 2013 referenced above shall remain in full force and effect.

Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings given to such terms in Section 4 of this Letter Agreement.

In connection with the foregoing, the parties agree as follows:

1. UTi agrees that:

a. For so long as P2 Capital and its affiliates have continuously since the date hereof collectively beneficially owned at least 5.0% of the then-outstanding ordinary shares, no par value, of UTi (“Ordinary Shares”) on an as-converted, fully-diluted basis, P2 Capital will have the right to designate for nomination for election or reelection to the Board one individual (a “P2 Capital Nominee”), who shall be the managing member of P2 Capital or a partner of P2 Capital or one of its affiliates (it being agreed and acknowledged that the Candidate currently serves on the Board as a P2 Capital Nominee). Subject to the satisfactory completion of a director questionnaire and a standard background check, the Nomination & Corporate Governance (“NCG”) Committee of the Board shall approve such nomination, unless the NCG Committee determines in good faith and after consideration of specific written advice of outside

2

counsel (a copy of which will be provided to P2 Capital), that the P2 Capital Nominee fails to satisfy the following requirements: (i) the independence requirements of NASDAQ, (ii) the applicable requirements regarding service as a director of the Company under applicable law, the NASDAQ Stock Market Rules or, if the Ordinary Shares are not listed on NASDAQ, any comparable rule or regulation of the primary stock exchange or quotation system on which the Ordinary Shares are listed or quoted, regarding service as a director and (iii) the recommendation of such P2 Capital Nominee is not reasonably expected to violate the fiduciary duties of UTi, the Board or the NCG Committee (the “Nominee Qualification Requirements”), in which case, UTi shall provide P2 Capital with a reasonable opportunity to designate an alternate P2 Capital Nominee.

b. UTi and the Board will, subject to satisfaction of their respective fiduciary duties, cause the P2 Capital Nominee approved by the NCG Committee to be included in management’s slate of nominees for those Shareholders Meetings (as defined below) at which members of the Board are elected and will recommend such person for election to the Board.

c. UTi will enter into the Registration Rights Agreement which will amend and restate the existing registration rights agreement with P2 Capital to register the resale by P2 Capital of Registrable Securities under the Securities Act on the terms described therein.

d. If, prior to the expiration of a P2 Capital Director’s term, the P2 Capital Director is unable to serve as a director on behalf of P2 Capital, resigns as a director of UTi or is removed as a director of UTi (other than as a result of Section 2(a) below), P2 Capital shall have the ability to recommend a substitute person, who shall be the managing member of P2 Capital or a partner of P2 Capital or one of its affiliates, to fill the resulting vacancy. Such recommendation will be subject to the satisfaction of the Nominee Qualification Requirements. In the event such substitute person does not satisfy the Nominee Qualification Requirements, P2 Capital will have the right to recommend additional substitute persons until one substitute person shall be accepted by the NCG Committee and the Board will, subject to satisfaction of its fiduciary duties, appoint such person to the Board no later than five business days after the NCG Committee’s recommendation of that person. So long as any P2 Capital Nominee is eligible to be so designated in accordance with this Letter Agreement, the Company shall not take any action to remove such person as a director without cause without the prior written consent of P2 Capital.

e. Unless otherwise agreed to by the Board, upon the election or appointment of any P2 Capital Nominee to the Board, the Board shall appoint such person to the Compensation Committee and the NCG Committee and, upon request by such person, any newly formed committees of the Board that the Board may establish from time to time after the date hereof unless the NCG Committee determines in good faith and after consideration of specific written advice of outside counsel (a copy of which will be provided to P2 Capital) that such appointment would not be consistent with its fiduciary duties.

3

f. The P2 Capital Director shall be entitled to compensation and reimbursement consistent with the compensation and reimbursement received by other members of the Board, which will be paid in a manner consistent with past practice; provided that such compensation shall be paid to P2 Capital or its designee(s).

g. UTi agrees to maintain directors’ insurance for any P2 Capital Director in an amount not less than the amount of coverage provided from time to time for other members of the board of directors. The Company shall indemnify each P2 Capital Director to the same extent it indemnifies its other directors pursuant to its organizational documents and applicable law and shall enter into an Indemnification Agreement with such P2 Capital Director to be effective upon the election or appointment of such P2 Capital Director to the Board, in a manner no less favorable to such P2 Capital Director as provided to the Candidate in the Indemnification Agreement with the Candidate, dated as of April 22, 2013, subject to the satisfaction of applicable fiduciary duties.

2. P2 Capital agrees that:

a. If, at any time during the term of a P2 Capital Director, P2 Capital or any of its affiliates effects a transaction or series of transactions that results in P2 Capital and its affiliates collectively beneficially owning less than 5.0% of the then outstanding Ordinary Shares on an as-converted, fully-diluted basis, P2 Capital will no longer have any right to designate any directors of the Board pursuant to this Letter Agreement, and will cause any P2 Capital Director then in office to offer to resign from the Board.

b. So long as P2 Capital and its affiliates collectively beneficially own at any time at least 5.0% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares on an as converted, fully diluted basis, P2 Capital and its affiliates will vote all voting securities that they are entitled to vote at any UTi annual or other meeting of the shareholders (any such meeting, a “Shareholders Meeting”) in favor of the election of each of the Board’s nominees to stand for election at any Shareholders Meeting (the “Board Nominees”) and against any competing nominees and in accordance with the recommendation of the Board on any shareholder proposal, and will not take any action intended to solicit, persuade, encourage or otherwise advise, influence or convince any other shareholder of UTi not to vote in favor of the election of any of the Board Nominees or not to vote in favor of such Board recommendation at any Shareholders Meeting.

c. P2 Capital and its affiliates hereby irrevocably appoint, subject to Section 2(d), the Chairman of the Board of UTi and any individual designated in writing by UTi as P2 Capital’s proxy and attorney-in-fact (with full power of substitution), for and in the name, place and stead of P2 Capital to vote, or cause to be voted, all voting securities beneficially owned by P2 Capital and its affiliates, in a manner consistent with Section 2(b) above, except as otherwise required under the Amended and Restated Memorandum of Association of UTi.

4

d. P2 Capital hereby (i) affirms that the irrevocable proxies referenced in Section 2(c) above are coupled with an interest and may under no circumstances be revoked so long as P2 Capital and its affiliates collectively beneficially own at any time at least 5.0% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares on an as converted, fully diluted basis and (ii) ratifies and confirms all that such irrevocable proxies may lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof.

e. So long as P2 Capital and its affiliates collectively beneficially own at any time at least 5.0% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares on an as-converted, fully-diluted basis, neither P2 Capital nor any of its affiliates will, without the prior approval of the Board, directly or indirectly:

(i) purchase, offer to purchase, or agree to purchase or otherwise acquire beneficial ownership of any Ordinary Shares, or any securities or instruments convertible or exchangeable into Ordinary Shares other than any Ordinary Shares or other securities acquired pursuant to a conversion of the Convertible Preference Shares or as pay-in-kind dividends on the Convertible Preference Shares or other securities of the Company;
