Form of Agreement Regarding Restricted Stock Units for the BioMarin Pharmaceutical Inc. 2017 Equity Incentive Plan

BioMarin Pharmaceutical Inc. (the “Company”) pursuant to its 2017 Equity Incentive Plan, as it may be amended from time to time (the “Plan”) hereby grants you a number of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) in the amount set forth below (the “Award”). The Award is subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth in this Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement, including the exhibits, appendices and addenda attached hereto (this “Agreement”) and the Plan. Unless otherwise defined herein, the terms defined in the Plan shall have the same defined meanings in this Agreement.

A.Terms of the Award. You have been granted RSUs, each of which represents the right to receive one share of Common Stock of the Company (a “Share” and collectively, the “Shares”), subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement, as follows:

    The RSUs will be adjusted in the event if changes in capital structure and similar events, as provided in Section 9 of the Plan.

B.Vesting Schedule. The RSUs will vest pursuant to the schedule set forth in Exhibit A, which is attached hereto and incorporated herein in its entirety.

C.Settlement. Subject to Section V, each RSU will be settled by delivery to you of one Share within thirty (30) days following vesting.

D.Termination of Continuous Service. Unless otherwise provided in Exhibit A, all unvested RSUs will be forfeited upon your termination of Continuous Service.

A.Stockholder Rights. You will not be deemed to be the holder of, or have any of the rights of a stockholder with respect to, the RSUs (including, without limitation, any voting rights or any right to dividends paid with respect to the Shares underlying the RSUs) unless and until the RSUs vest and the Company has issued and delivered Shares to you and your name has been entered as a stockholder into the books and records of the Company.

B.Securities Law Compliance. In no event will the Company deliver Shares upon vesting and settlement of the RSUs unless the Shares are then registered under the Securities Act, and applicable state or non-U.S. securities law or, if not registered, the Committee has determined that the issuance of the Shares would be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. The issuance of Shares also must comply with all other applicable laws and regulations governing the RSUs, including the requirements of any stock exchange on which the Shares may be listed, and you may not be issued Shares if the Committee determines that such issuance would not be in material compliance with such laws, regulations and listing requirements.

C.Transferability. Except as permitted in the Plan, the RSUs are not transferable except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the RSUs may not be sold, assigned, transferred or otherwise disposed of, or pledged or hypothecated in any manner (whether by operation of law or otherwise), and shall not be subject to execution, attachment or other process. Any assignment, transfer, sale, pledge, hypothecation or other disposition of the RSUs or any attempt to make any such levy of execution, attachment or other process will cause the RSUs to terminate immediately.

D.Recovery of Compensation; Insider Trading Policy. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Shares issued on settlement of an RSU under this Agreement and all amounts that may be received by you in connection with any disposition of any such Shares shall be subject to applicable recoupment, “clawback” and similar provisions under applicable law, as well as the Company’s clawback policy in accordance with Section 8(l) of the Plan. In addition, you may not be able to sell the Shares issued on settlement due to the restrictions of the Company’s insider trading policy.

E.Notices. Notices hereunder shall be mailed or delivered to the Company at its principal place of business and shall be mailed or delivered to you at the address on file with the Company or, in either case, at such other address as one party may subsequently furnish to the other party in writing.

F.Data Privacy Notice and Consent. You hereby explicitly and unambiguously consent to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of your personal data as described in this Agreement by and among, as applicable, the Company and is Affiliates for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing your participation in the Plan. You understand that the Company and its Affiliates may hold certain personal information about you, including, but not limited to, your name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any Common Stock or directorships held in the Company, details of all RSUs or any other entitlement to shares of Common Stock awarded, canceled, vested, unvested or outstanding in your favor, for the purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Plan (“Data”). You understand that Data may be transferred to any third parties assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan, that these recipients may be located in your country, or elsewhere, and that the recipient’s country may have different data privacy laws and protections than your country. You understand that you may request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Data by contacting your local human resources representative. You authorize the recipients to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the purposes of implementing, administering and managing your participation in the Plan, including any requisite transfer of such Data as may be required to a broker, escrow agent or other third party with whom the shares of Common Stock received upon vesting of the RSUs may be deposited. You understand that Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage your participation in the Plan. You understand that you 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 your local human resources representative.

G.Governing Law. The interpretation, performance, and enforcement of this Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of Delaware without regard to that state’s conflict-of-laws rules.

H.Integration. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to this Award and supersedes all prior agreements and discussions between the parties concerning such subject matter.

This Agreement may be modified or amended at any time in accordance with the Plan; provided that you must consent in writing to any modification that adversely or materially affects your rights or obligations under this Agreement.

Neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates is obligated by or as a result of the Plan or this Agreement to continue your employment or other service with the Company or any Affiliate, and neither the Plan nor this Agreement shall interfere in any way with the right of the Company and its Affiliates to terminate your Continuous Service at any time, subject to applicable law.

(viii)the future value of the underlying Shares is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty;

(ix)if you receive the shares of Common Stock upon settlement of the RSUs, the value of such shares may increase or decrease in value;

(x)in consideration of the grant of the Award, no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages arises from termination of the Award or diminution in value of the shares of Common Stock received upon vesting and settlement of the RSUs resulting from termination of your Continuous Service (for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of local labor laws) and you irrevocably release the Company and its Affiliates 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 Agreement, you shall be deemed irrevocably to have waived your entitlement to pursue such claim.

By executing this Agreement, you agree to be bound by all of the provisions of the Plan applicable to the Award, the provisions of which are hereby made a part of this Agreement and incorporated herein by reference, and all interpretations, amendments, rules and regulations, which may from time to time be promulgated and adopted pursuant to the Plan. You hereby agree to accept as binding, conclusive and final all decisions or interpretations of the Committee upon any questions relating to the Plan and this Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall control.

Notwithstanding any provisions in this Agreement, the grant of RSUs may be subject to the special terms and conditions set forth in Appendix A to this Agreement (including all addenda) for your country. Appendix A, including its addenda, constitute part of this Agreement.

Regardless of any action the Company or your employer (the “Employer”) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, or other tax-related items related to your participation in the Plan and legally applicable to you (“Tax-Related Items”), you acknowledge that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items is and remains your responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the Employer. You further acknowledge 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 Award, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting, and settlement of the Award, the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon settlement of the Award, the subsequent sale of Common Stock acquired pursuant to such issuance 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 Award to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result.

Prior to any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, you will pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Committee (in the Committee’s sole discretion) to satisfy all withholding obligations. Unless the Committee expressly authorizes otherwise, you shall satisfy all tax withholding obligations arising in connection with the vesting of RSUs by automatically having withheld, effective as of each Vesting Date (as defined on Exhibit A), such number of shares of Common Stock underlying the RSUs that vest on such Vesting Date as have a Fair Market Value (calculated in accordance with the Plan) equal to the amount of the applicable tax withholding obligations in connection with the vesting and settlement of such RSUs. The Company will withhold only the number of shares required to satisfy your obligations for Tax-Related Items at the statutory minimum (or such higher amount as is acceptable without adverse accounting consequences). You are deemed to have been issued the full number of shares of Common Stock at vesting, notwithstanding that a number of the shares are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of any aspect of your participation in the Plan.

You shall pay to the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Employer may be required to withhold as a result of your participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to issue or deliver the Shares, if you fail to comply with your obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items. Further, in consideration of the grant of the Award, no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages arises if, in satisfying your (and/or the Employer’s) obligation for Tax-Related Items, the Company and/or the Employer withholds an amount in excess of the amount legally required to be withheld, you irrevocably release 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 Agreement, you shall be deemed irrevocably to have waived your entitlement to pursue such claim or damages.

The Committee and the Company assume no responsibility for individual income taxes, penalties or interest related to grant, vesting or settlement of the RSUs. Neither the Committee, the Company nor any Affiliate makes any representation or undertaking regarding the treatment of any tax withholding in connection with the grant, vesting or settlement of the RSUs. You should consult with your personal tax advisor regarding the tax ramifications, if any, which result from receipt of the RSUs, the subsequent issuance, if any, of Shares on vesting and settlement of the RSUs, and subsequent disposition of any such Shares.

It is the Board’s, the Committee’s and the Company’s intent that the RSUs and this Agreement be exempt from Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”) to the extent applicable, and that this Agreement be administered accordingly. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, to the extent that any payment or benefit under this Agreement is determined by the Committee to constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A and is payable to you by reason of termination of your Continuous Service, then (a) such payment or benefit shall be made or provided to you only upon a “separation from service,” as defined for purposes of Section 409A under applicable regulations, from the Company and (b) if you are a “specified employee” (within the meaning of Section 409A and as determined by the Committee), such payment or benefit shall not be made or provided to you until first day of the seventh month following the date of your separation from service from the Company and its Affiliates (or, if earlier, on the date of your death). Each payment under this Agreement shall be treated as a separate payment under Section 409A. You hereby agree that the Committee and the Company do not have a duty to design or administer the Plan or its other compensation programs in a manner that minimizes your tax liabilities. You will not make any claim against the Board, the Committee and the Company or any of its officers, directors, employees or Affiliates related to tax liabilities arising from the RSUs.
