RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT
UNDER THE CITRIX SYSTEMS, INC.
2014 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN
Name of Awardee: Kirill Tatarinov
Award Date: January 25, 2016
Number of shares of Restricted Stock: 118,588
Pursuant to the Citrix Systems, Inc. 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (as amended from time to time, the “Plan”), Citrix Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) hereby grants an Award (as defined in the Plan) of Restricted Stock (as defined in the Plan) to the awardee named above (the “Awardee”). Upon acceptance of this Agreement, including any appendix for Awardee’s country (the “Appendix” and together with this Agreement, the “Award Agreement”), Awardee shall receive the number of shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $.001 per share (the “Stock”) subject to this Restricted Stock Award specified above (the “Restricted Shares”), subject to the restrictions and conditions set forth in this Award Agreement and in the Plan. The Company acknowledges the receipt from Awardee of consideration with respect to the par value of the Restricted Shares in the form of future services to be rendered to the Company by Awardee or such other form of consideration as is acceptable to the Committee.
1.Vesting. All of the Restricted Shares shall initially be subject to a risk of forfeiture. The risk of forfeiture shall lapse as to 9,882 Restricted Shares on April 1, 2016 and on the first business day of each succeeding third month, and as to 9,886 Restricted Shares on January 2, 2019, provided in each case that the Awardee is then, and since the Award Date has continuously been, employed by the Company or its Affiliates. Shares of Stock for which the risk of forfeiture has lapsed shall be fully vested and nonforfeitable.

2.Issuance of Stock.

(a)    The Restricted Shares awarded hereunder shall be issued and held by the Company’s transfer agent in book entry form, and Awardee’s name shall be entered as the stockholder of record on the books and records of the Company with respect to the Restricted Shares upon compliance to the satisfaction of the Committee with all requirements under applicable laws or regulations in connection with such issuance and with the requirements hereof and of the Plan. The determination of the Committee as to such compliance shall be final and binding on Awardee. Thereupon, the Awardee shall have all the rights of a stockholder with respect to such Restricted Shares, including voting and dividend rights, subject, however, to the restrictions and conditions specified herein. Awardee shall (i) accept this agreement electronically and (ii) deliver to the Company a stock power endorsed in blank.
(b)    Restrictions and Conditions.
(i)    Any book entries for the Restricted Shares granted herein shall bear an appropriate legend, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, to the effect that such Restricted Shares are subject to restrictions as set forth herein and in the Plan.
(ii)    Restricted Shares granted herein may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered or disposed of by the Awardee prior to vesting.
(c)    In the case of an in-kind dividend paid on the Restricted Shares, including without limitation a distribution of Stock by reason of a stock dividend, stock split or otherwise, any such distribution shall be subject to the vesting and restrictions of this Award Agreement in the same manner and for so long as the Restricted Shares granted pursuant to this Award Agreement to which they relate remain subject to such vesting and restrictions, and shall be promptly forfeited to the Company if and when such Restricted Shares are so forfeited.
3.Termination of Employment.





(a)     Except as provided in Section 3(b) or (c) below, if Awardee’s employment by the Company or any of its Affiliates (as defined in the Plan) is voluntarily or involuntarily terminated for any reason (including death or disability and regardless of whether an Awardee continues to be considered an employee under local labor laws), Awardee’s right in any Restricted Shares that are not vested shall automatically terminate as of the date that Awardee is no longer actively employed by the Company and its Affiliates, as determined by the Committee or any of its delegatees in its, his or her sole discretion (the “Termination Date”), and such Restricted Shares shall be forfeited and shall be returned to the Company.
(b)    If Awardee is terminated by the Company for reasons other than Cause, death or Disability, or Awardee terminates his employment with the Company for Good Reason, subject to the effectiveness of the release required by the Employment Agreement, any Restricted Shares that would have vested and become nonforfeitable had Awardee remained employed by the Company for an additional 24 months following the Termination Date shall become vested and nonforfeitable.
(c)    If within 18 months following a Change in Control, Awardee is terminated by the Company for reasons other than Cause, death or Disability, or Awardee terminates his employment with the Company for Good Reason, subject to the effectiveness of the release required by the Employment Agreement, all Restricted Shares shall become vested and nonforfeitable.
(c)    For purposes hereof, the terms “Cause,” “Change in Control,” “Disability,” and “Good Reason” shall have the same meanings as defined in the employment agreement between Awardee and the Company dated as of January 19, 2016 (the “Employment Agreement”).
4.Incorporation of Plan. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Award shall be subject to and governed by all the terms and conditions of the Plan. Capitalized terms in this Award Agreement shall have the meaning specified in the Plan, unless a different meaning is specified herein.

5.Transferability. This Award Agreement and the Award are personal to Awardee, non-assignable and not transferable in any manner, by operation of law or otherwise, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. If Awardee is a U.S. employee (as determined by the Committee or any of its delegatees in its, his or her sole discretion), Awardee may be permitted to designate a beneficiary with respect to the shares of Stock to be issued upon vesting of the Award.

6.Tax Withholding.
The Awardee shall consult with the Awardee’s tax advisor to determine whether it would be appropriate for the Awardee to make an election under Section 83(b) of the Code with respect to this Award. Any such election must be filed with the Internal Revenue Service within 30 days of the date of this Award. If the Awardee makes an election under Section 83(b) of the Code, the Awardee shall give prompt notice to the Company, provide a copy of such election to the Company, and provide the required withholding tax in cash to the Company.
Regardless of any action the Company or, if different, Awardee’s employer (the “Employer”) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to Awardee’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to Awardee (“Tax-Related Items”), Awardee acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items is and remains his or her responsibility and that such liability may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the Employer. Awardee further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (i) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Restricted Shares, including, but not limited to, the grant or vesting of the Restricted Shares, the subsequent sale of Stock and the receipt of any dividends and/or any dividend equivalents; and (ii) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Restricted Shares to reduce or eliminate Awardee’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if Awardee has become subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction between the Award Date and the date of any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, Awardee acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in





more than one jurisdiction. The Company or the Employer may decide in their sole and absolute discretion to satisfy Awardee’s obligation for Tax-Related Items in any way set forth in Section 15 of the Plan.
To avoid negative accounting treatment, the Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding amounts or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum applicable rates, in which case Awardee will receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash and will have no entitlement to the Stock equivalent. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding Stock, for tax purposes, Awardee is deemed to have been issued the full number of shares of Stock subject to the vested Restricted Shares, notwithstanding that a number of shares is held back solely for purposes of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of any aspect of Awardee’s participation in the Plan.
Finally, Awardee 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 Awardee’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to issue or deliver the Restricted Shares if Awardee fails to comply with Awardee’s obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.
7.No Advice Regarding Grant. The Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding Awardee’s participation in the Plan, or Awardee’s acquisition or sale of the underlying Stock. Awardee is hereby advised to consult with his or her own personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding his or her participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan.

8.Data Privacy. In accepting the Restricted Shares, Awardee explicitly, voluntarily and unambiguously consents to the collection, use, and transfer, in electronic or other form, of Awardee’s personal data as described in this Award Agreement and any other grant materials by an and among, as applicable, the Employer, the Company and any Affiliate for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing Awardee’s participation in the Plan.

Awardee understands that the Employer, the Company and its Affiliates may hold certain personal information about Awardee, including, but not limited to, Awardee’s name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social security number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, or any shares held in the Company, and details of all Awards or other entitlement to shares awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested, or outstanding in Awardee’s favor (“Data”), for the exclusive purpose of managing and administering the Plan.
Awardee further understands that the Employer, the Company and/or its Affiliates will transfer Data among themselves as necessary for the exclusive purposes of implementation, administration and management of Awardee’s participation in the Plan, and that the Employer, the Company and/or its Affiliates may each further transfer Data to any third parties assisting the Company in the implementation, administration, and management of the Plan, including Fidelity Stock Plan Services, LLC or such other stock plan service provider as may be selected by the Company (“Data Recipients”).
Awardee understands that the Data Recipients may be located in Awardee’s country or elsewhere, including outside the European Economic Area, and that the Data Recipient’s country (e.g., the United States) may have different data privacy laws and protections. Awardee understands that, if Awardee resides outside the United States, Awardee may request a list with the names and addresses of Data Recipients by contacting in writing Awardee’s local human resources representative. Awardee authorizes the Data Recipients to receive, possess, use, retain, and transfer Data, in electronic or other form, for the purposes of implementing, administering, and managing Awardee’s participation in the Plan. Awardee understands that Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage Awardee’s participation in the Plan.
Awardee understands that, if Awardee resides outside the Unites States, Awardee may, at any time, view Data, request additional information about the storage and processing of Data, or require any necessary amendments to Data to make the information contained therein factually accurate, or refuse or withdraw the consents herein, in any case without cost, by contacting in writing Awardee’s local human resources representative.





Further, Awardee understands that Awardee is providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis. If Awardee does not consent, or if Awardee later seeks to revoke the consents, Awardee’s employment status or service and career with the Employer will not be adversely affected; the only adverse consequence of refusing or withdrawing the consents is that the Company would not be able to grant Restricted Shares or other equity awards to Awardee or administer or maintain such awards. Therefore, Awardee understands that refusing or withdrawing the consents may affect Awardee’s ability to participate in the Plan. For more information on the consequences of Awardee’s refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, Awardee understands that Awardee may contact in writing Awardee’s local human resources representative.
9.Nature of Grant. In accepting the Restricted Shares, Awardee expressly acknowledges, understands and agrees to the following:

(a)the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, it is discretionary in nature, and may be terminated by the Company at any time, except as otherwise set forth in the Plan;
