2019 Equity Incentive Plan
Global PSU Award Agreement
As reflected by your PSU Award Grant Notice (“Grant Notice”) Datadog, Inc. (the “Company”) has granted you a PSU Award under its 2019 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) for the number of performance restricted stock units as indicated in your Grant Notice (the “PSU Award”). The terms of your PSU Award as specified in this Global PSU Award Agreement for your PSU Award, including any additional terms and conditions for your country included in the appendix attached thereto (the “Agreement”) and the Grant Notice constitute your “PSU Award Agreement”. Capitalized terms not explicitly defined in this Agreement but defined in the Grant Notice or the Plan shall have the same definitions as in the Grant Notice or Plan, as applicable.
The general terms applicable to your PSU Award are as follows:
1.Governing Plan Document. Your PSU Award is subject to all the provisions of the Plan. Your PSU Award is further subject to all interpretations, amendments, rules and regulations, which may from time to time be promulgated and adopted pursuant to the Plan. In the event of any conflict between the PSU Award Agreement and the provisions of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall control.
2.Grant of the PSU Award. This PSU Award represents your right to be issued on a future date the number of shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock that is equal to the number of performance restricted stock units computed in accordance with the terms of the Vesting Schedule set forth in the Grant Notice and subject to your satisfaction of the performance and vesting conditions set forth therein (the “Performance Restricted Stock Units”). Any additional Performance Restricted Stock Units that become subject to the PSU Award pursuant to Capitalization Adjustments as set forth in the Plan and the provisions of Section 3 below, if any, shall be subject, in a manner determined by the Board, to the same forfeiture restrictions, restrictions on transferability, and time and manner of delivery as applicable to the other Performance Restricted Stock Units covered by your PSU Award.
3.Dividends. You may become entitled to receive payments equal to any cash dividends and other distributions paid with respect to a corresponding number of shares of Class A Common Stock to be issued in respect of the Performance Restricted Stock Units covered by your PSU Award. Any such dividends or distributions shall be subject to the same forfeiture restrictions as apply to the Performance Restricted Stock Units and shall be paid at the same time that the corresponding shares are issued in respect of your vested Performance Restricted Stock Units, provided, however that to the extent any such dividends or distributions are paid in shares of Class A Common Stock, then you will automatically be granted a corresponding number of additional Performance Restricted Stock Units subject to the PSU Award (the “Dividend Units”), and further provided that such Dividend Units shall be subject to the same forfeiture restrictions and restrictions on transferability, and same timing requirements for issuance of shares, as apply to the Performance Restricted Stock Units subject to the PSU Award with respect to which the Dividend Units relate.
4.Withholding Obligations.
(a)You acknowledge that, regardless of any action taken by the Company or, if different, the Affiliate employing you (the “Employer”), the ultimate liability for all income tax (including U.S. federal, state, and local taxes and/or foreign taxes), social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to your participation in the Plan and legally applicable to you (“Tax-Related Items”) is and remains your responsibility and may exceed the amount, if any, actually withheld by the Company or the Employer. You further acknowledge that the Company and/or your Employer (i) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the PSU Award, including, but not limited to, the grant of the PSU
1



Award, the vesting of the PSU Award, the issuance of shares in settlement of vesting of the PSU Award, the subsequent sale of any shares of Class A Common Stock acquired pursuant to the PSU Award and the receipt of any dividends, Dividend Units or other dividend equivalents; and (ii) do not commit to and are under no obligation to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related Items. Further, if you become subject to taxation in more than one country, you acknowledge that the Company and/or your Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one country.
(b)Prior to any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, you agree to make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, you authorize the Company and/or the Employer, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy any applicable withholding obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following: (i) withholding from your wages or other cash compensation paid to you by the Company and/or the Employer; (ii) withholding from proceeds of the sale of shares of Class A Common Stock acquired upon settlement of the Performance Restricted Stock Units either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on your behalf pursuant to this authorization without further consent); (iii) withholding from shares of Class A Common Stock to be issued to you upon settlement of the Performance Restricted Stock Units; or (iv) any other method of withholding determined by the Company and permitted by Applicable Law; provided, however, that that if you are a Section 16 officer of the Company under the Exchange Act, then the Administrator shall establish the method of withholding from alternatives (i)-(iv) herein and, if the Administrator does not exercise its discretion prior to the applicable withholding event, then you shall be entitled to elect the method of withholding from the alternatives above.
(c)The Company and/or the Employer may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable statutory withholding amounts or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum rates applicable in your jurisdiction, in which case you may receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash and will have no entitlement to the equivalent amount in shares of Class A Common Stock. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in shares of Class A Common Stock, for tax purposes, you are deemed to have been issued the full number of shares of Class A Common Stock subject to the vested Performance Restricted Stock Units, notwithstanding that a number of the shares of Class A Common Stock is held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items.
(d)You agree to 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 your participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to issue or deliver the shares of Class A Common Stock, or the proceeds of the sale of shares of Class A Common Stock, if you fail to comply with your obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.
5.Date of Issuance.
(e)To the extent your PSU Award is exempt from application of Section 409A of the Code and any state law of similar effect (collectively Section 409A), the Company will deliver to you a number of shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock equal to the number of vested Performance Restricted Stock Units subject to your PSU Award, including any additional Performance Restricted Stock Units received pursuant to Section 3 above that relate to those vested Performance Restricted Stock Units on the applicable vesting date(s), or if such date is not a business day, such delivery date shall instead fall on the next following business day (the “Original Distribution Date”).
(f)Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that you are prohibited from selling shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock in the public market on the scheduled delivery date by the Trading Policy or otherwise, and the Company elects not to satisfy its tax withholding obligations by withholding shares from your distribution, then such shares shall not be delivered on such Original Distribution Date

Delivery of the shares pursuant to the provisions of Section 5 is intended to comply with the requirements for the short-term deferral exemption available under Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) and shall be construed and administered in such manner.
