Exhibit 10.5

AGILENT TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

1999 Stock Plan

Stock Award Agreement (“Award Agreement”)

For Awards Granted to Employees in France

Section 1.              Grant of Stock Award.  This Stock Award Agreement, dated as of the date of grant indicated in your account maintained by the company providing administrative services in connection with the Plan (as defined below) (the “External Administrator”), is entered into between Agilent Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”), and you as an individual who has been granted Restricted Stock Units (the “Awardee”) pursuant to the Agilent Technologies, Inc. 1999 Stock Plan (the “Plan”). This Stock Award represents the right to receive the number of shares of the Company’s $0.01 par value voting common stock indicated in the Awardee’s External Administrator account, subject to the fulfillment of the conditions set forth below and pursuant to and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan, the Agilent Technologies, Inc. 1999 Stock Plan for Awards Granted to Employees in France (the “French RSU Plan”) and the administrative rules thereunder. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein are used with the same meanings as in the Plan or the French RSU Plan, as applicable. The Stock Award is an unfunded and unsecured promise by the Company to deliver shares in the future.

This Stock Award is intended to be a grant of French qualified shares which qualifies for favorable tax and social security contributions treatment in France under Section L. 225-197-1 to L. 225-197-5 of the French Commercial Code, as amended.

Section 2.              Vesting Period.  So long as Awardee remains an Awardee Eligible to Vest, the Stock Award shall vest as to 100% of the shares on the second anniversary of the date of grant stated in Section 1 above.

Section 3.              Nontransferability of Stock Award.  This Stock Award shall not be transferable by Awardee otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. The terms of this Stock Award shall be binding on the executors, administrators, heirs and successors of Awardee.

Section 4.              Termination of Employment or Service.

(a)           Any unvested Stock Award shall be forfeited immediately when the Awardee ceases to be an Awardee Eligible to Vest, except as described in Sections 4(b)-(e) below. Except as the Committee may otherwise determine, termination of Awardee’s employment or service for any reason shall occur on the date such Awardee ceases to perform services for the Company or any Affiliate without regard to whether such Awardee continues thereafter to receive any compensatory payments therefrom or is paid salary thereby in lieu of notice of termination or, with respect to a member of the Board who is not also an employee of the Company or any Subsidiary, the date such Awardee is no longer a member of the Board.

Except as the Committee may otherwise determine, termination of Awardee’s employment or service for any reason shall occur on the date such Awardee ceases to perform services for the Company or any Affiliate.

(b)           Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, in the event of Awardee’s death while employed by the Company or its French Subsidiary, on the date of death, the Stock Award shall become fully vested and transferable to Awardee’s heirs. Awardee’s heirs may request issuance of the underlying shares within six months of Awardee’s death. If Awardee’s heirs do not request the issuance of the underlying shares within six months of Awardee’s death, the Stock Award will be forfeited.

(c)           Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, if an Awardee terminates employment due to total and permanent disability or due to retirement in accordance with the Company’s local retirement policy, any unvested Stock Award will continue to vest under the vesting schedule set forth in Section 2.

 (d)          In the event of a Change of Control of the Company (as defined in Section 15(c) of the Plan or any successor), the Stock Award shall vest in full immediately prior to the closing of the transaction. The foregoing shall not apply where the Stock Award is assumed, converted or replaced in full by the successor corporation or a parent or subsidiary of the successor; provided, however, that in the event of a Change of Control in which one or more of the successor or a parent or subsidiary of the successor has issued publicly traded equity securities, the assumption, conversion, replacement or continuation shall be made by an entity with publicly traded securities and shall provide that the holders of such assumed, converted, replaced or continued Stock Awards shall be able to acquire such publicly traded securities. If vesting occurs prior to the second anniversary of the date of grant provided in Section 1 above, the Stock Award will be disqualified and will no longer benefit from the favorable tax and social security treatment in France.

(e)           Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, if an Awardee ceases to be an Awardee Eligible to Vest as a result of participation in the Company’s Workforce Management Program, any unvested Stock Award will continue to vest under the vesting schedule set forth in Section 2.

(f)            Sections 12(b), (c), (d) and (e) of the Plan shall not apply to this Stock Award.

Section 5.              Restrictions on Sale of Shares.  The Company shall not be obligated to issue any shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Stock Award unless the shares are at that time effectively registered or exempt from registration under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and, as applicable, local laws. Awardee may not sell or transfer the shares issued pursuant to the Stock Award prior to the second anniversary of each vesting date or such other period as is required to comply with the minimum mandatory holding period applicable to shares underlying French-qualified awards under Section L. 225-197-1 of the French Commercial Code, the French Tax Code or the French Social Security Code, as amended. Notwithstanding the above, the Awardee’s heirs, in case of the Awardee’s death, or the Awardee in case of the

Awardee’s Disability (as defined under the French RSU Plan), are not subject to this restriction on the sale of shares.

Nevertheless, if Awardee qualifies as a corporate officer under French law (“mandataire social”) on the Grant Date, Awardee must hold 20% of the shares issued to him or her upon vesting of the Stock Awards in a nominative account until the termination of the Awardee’s function as a corporate officer.

In addition, the underlying shares cannot be sold during certain “Closed Periods” as provided for by Section L. 225-197-1 of the French Commercial Code, as amended, so long as those Closed Periods are applicable to shares underlying French-qualified awards, as interpreted by the French administrative guideline, to the extent applicable.

Section 6.              Responsibility for Taxes.  Regardless of any action the Company or Awardee’s employer (the “Employer”) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax or other tax-related withholding (the “Tax-Related Items”), Awardee acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by Awardee is and remains Awardee’s 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 Award, including the grant and vesting of the Stock Award, the subsequent sale of shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to the Stock Award and the receipt of any dividends or other distributions, if any; and (2) do not commit to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Stock Award to reduce or eliminate Awardee’s liability for Tax-Related Items.

Awardee authorizes the Company and/or the Employer to, in the sole discretion of the Company and/or the Employer, withhold all applicable Tax-Related Items legally payable by Awardee from Awardee’s wages or other cash compensation paid to Awardee by the Company and/or the Employer, within legal limits, or from proceeds of the sale of shares of Common Stock. Awardee acknowledges and agrees that should the amount of withholding for Tax-Related Items be in excess of the actual tax due, the Company and/or the Employer will refund the excess amount to him or her as soon as administratively practicable and without any interest. Awardee shall pay, by means of cash, check or credit transfer, to the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold as a result of Awardee’s participation in the Plan or Awardee’s acquisition of shares of Common Stock that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to deliver the shares of Common Stock if Awardee fails to comply with Awardee’s obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items as described in this section.

Section 7.              Adjustment.  The number of shares of Common Stock subject to this Stock Award and the price per share, if any, of such shares may be adjusted by the Company from time to time pursuant to the Plan. If those adjustments are not in compliance with the laws applicable to French qualified stock awards, the Stock Awards may be disqualified and may no longer benefit from the favorable tax and social security treatment in France.

Section 8.              Nature of the Award.  By accepting this Stock Award, Awardee acknowledges that:

(1)           the Plan and the French RSU Plan are established voluntarily by the Company, they are discretionary in nature and it may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time, unless otherwise provided in the Plan, the French RSU Plan and this Award Agreement;

(2)           the grant of the Stock Award is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of Stock Award, or benefits in lieu of Stock Awards, even if Stock Awards have been granted repeatedly in the past;

(3)           all decisions with respect to future Stock Award grants, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company;

(4)           participation in the Plan and the French RSU Plan shall not create a right to further employment with the Employer and shall not interfere with the ability of the Employer to terminate Awardee’s employment relationship at any time;

(5)           participating in the Plan and the French RSU Plan is voluntary;

(6)           the Stock Award is 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 Awardee’s employment contract, if any;

(7)           the Stock Award is not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purposes, including, but not limited to, calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement benefits or similar payments and in no event should be considered as compensation for, or relating in any way to, past services to the Company or the Employer;

(8)           in the event Awardee is not an employee of the Company, the Stock Award will not be interpreted to form an employment contract or relationship with the Company; and furthermore, the Stock Award will not be interpreted to form an employment contract with the Employer or any subsidiary or affiliate of the Company;

(9)           the future value of the underlying shares of Common Stock is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty;

(10)         if Awardee accepts the Stock Award and obtains shares of Common Stock, the value of those shares of Common Stock acquired may increase or decrease in value;

(11)         in consideration of the grant of the Stock Award, no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from termination of the Stock Award or diminution in value of the Stock Award or shares of Common Stock acquired under the Stock Award resulting from termination of Awardee’s employment by the Company or the Employer and Awardee irrevocably releases the Company and the Employer from any such claim that may arise; if, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen, then, by signing this Award Agreement, Awardee shall be deemed irrevocably to have waived Awardee’s entitlement to pursue such claim; and

(12)         the Awardee acknowledges that this Award Agreement is between the Awardee and the Company, and that the Awardee’s local employer is not a party to this Award Agreement.

Section 9.              Data Privacy.  The Awardee explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of the Awardee’s personal data as described in this document by and among, as applicable, the Company and Employer as necessary for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing Awardee’s participation in the Plan and the French RSU Plan.

Awardee hereby understands that Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage the Awardee’s participation in the Plan and the French RSU Plan. Awardee hereby understands that Awardee may, at any time, view Data, request additional information about the storage and processing of Data, require any necessary amendments to Data or refuse or withdraw the consents herein, in any case without cost, by contacting in writing Awardee’s local human resources representative. Awardee hereby understands, however, that refusing or withdrawing the Awardee’s consent may affect the Awardee’s ability to participate in the Plan and French RSU Plan.
