This letter is accompanied by a copy of the Rules and the Agreement. You should read this letter, the Rules and the Agreement carefully.
A capitalised term not defined in this letter that is defined in the Rules or the Agreement has the same meaning in this letter.
Offer
You are invited to apply for [insert] shares of EnerNOC, Inc.s Common Stock (Shares) at a purchase price of US$0.001 (AU$[insert equivalent on date of Offer]) per Share (Offer) receipt of which is acknowledged by your prior service to EnerNOC Australia. The Offer contained in this letter will remain open until 5:00pm Australian Eastern Standard Time (AEST) on [insert], and if not accepted by that time, it will end unless extended by EnerNOC Australia (Offer Period). EnerNOC Australia reserves the right to accept late acceptances at its absolute discretion.

You may accept the Offer by signing, dating and returning the Agreement to Sonali Dias, Manager, Human Resources, of EnerNOC Australia by no later than 5.00pm AEST on [insert].

If the Agreement is duly executed and received by EnerNOC Australia by the required time, the Shares will be issued to you in accordance with the terms of the Rules and the Agreement.
Entitlement to retain Shares
In accordance with the Agreement and the Rules, if for any reason your employment at EnerNOC Australia ends before the dates set out in the table below, on the date that your employment ends you will be required to immediately forfeit the percentage of the total number of Shares issued to you under the Offer in accordance with the following table:
Position ending date | % of Shares to be forfeited | |
Prior to first anniversary of date of issue | 100 | |
[insert] |
This table mirrors clause 2.1(a)(ii) of the Australian Restricted Stock Agreement.
If your employment at EnerNOC Australia is terminated for cause or because of death or disability, EnerNOC, Inc. may deal with the Shares issued to you under the Offer in accordance with the Agreement.
Escrow
All Shares issued to you under the Offer will be held in escrow while they are subject to forfeiture rights. Any cash (including dividends) or securities distributed in respect of escrowed Shares will also be held in escrow.
While the Shares are held in escrow, you will not be able to sell, transfer or otherwise deal with the Shares issued to you under this Offer.
Rights as a shareholder
You will have all the rights as a shareholder with respect to the Shares issued to you under the Offer (including Shares held in escrow), including voting and dividend rights, subject to transfer, escrow and other restrictions set out in the Agreement and the Rules.
Market Price
During the Offer Period, upon request, EnerNOC Australia undertakes to make available within a reasonable period:
(1) | the Australian dollar equivalent of the current market price of the Shares as published by NASDAQ as the final price on the previous day on which the Shares were traded; and |
(2) | the current Australian dollar equivalent of the purchase price for the Shares the subject of Offer. |
The Australian currency equivalent of a price will be calculated by reference to the exchange rate published by the Reserve Bank of Australia on the business day before the date the information is made available to EnerNOC Australia.
Tax
This section contains a brief summary of the taxation treatment of Shares issued to Australian Employees under the Australian Plan. However, the tax considerations outlined below are general in nature and do not take into account the specific taxation circumstances of each individual participant. The taxation consequences may vary depending upon the particular circumstances of each individual participant. Accordingly you should seek your own independent taxation advice before applying to participate in the Australian Plan.
The following analysis is based on the law in force, and administrative practice of the Commissioner of Taxation (Commissioner), as of November 21, 2011. Changes to the law or the way the Commissioner administers the law may result in different tax treatment of the Shares. You should be aware that the ultimate interpretation of the taxation law rests with the courts.
- 2 -
The following analysis assumes that you are, and remain, an Australian resident for tax purposes. You should note that there are particular taxation consequences for non-residents or for residents whose tax residency status changes.
Employee Share Scheme Provisions
The employee share scheme provisions in Division 83A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (ITAA 97) will have application to Shares granted to you under the Australian Plan.
Broadly, under the employee share scheme provisions, where you acquire shares under an employee share scheme your assessable income includes any discount (compared to market value) given in relation to the shares.
The Australian Plan has been designed to enable you to obtain the benefit of what is known as the tax deferral concession. Ordinarily, the discount on your Shares would be subject to tax in the income year of grant of the Shares. The tax deferral concession provides for the tax on the discount on your Shares to be deferred until the income tax year in which the deferred taxing point arises (see below).
The tax deferral concession will apply if:
(1) | you are employed by EnerNOC Australia (being a subsidiary of EnerNOC, Inc.); |
(2) | your Shares are common stock in EnerNOC, Inc.; |
(3) | at least 75% of the Australian-resident permanent employees of EnerNOC Australia who have completed at least 3 years of service (whether continuous or non-continuous) are entitled to acquire Shares under the Australian Plan or under another employee share scheme operated by EnerNOC, Inc.; |
(4) | immediately after you acquire the Shares: |
(a) | you do not hold a beneficial interest in more than 5% of the shares in EnerNOC, Inc.; |
(b) | you are not in a position to cast, or control the casting of, more than 5% of the maximum number of votes that might be cast at a general meeting of EnerNOC, Inc.; and |
(5) | there is a real risk that, under the conditions of the Australian Plan, you will forfeit or lose your Shares (other than by disposing of them) (real risk of forfeiture). |
If you do not meet the above conditions for tax deferral, you will be taxed on the discount on your Shares in the income year of grant.
Based on current Australian Tax Office guidance, EnerNOC, Inc. believes that the condition requiring you to have been continuously employed by EnerNOC, Inc or an Affiliate (such as EnerNOC Australia) from the Grant Date until the forfeiture rights lapse will satisfy the real risk of forfeiture test.
If tax deferral applies, and subject to one qualification (refer below), the deferred taxing point of the Shares is the earlier of:
(1) | the time when there is no longer a real risk of forfeiture and no genuine disposal restrictions apply (such as escrow, insider trading prohibitions under applicable securities law or trading restrictions under the EnerNOC, Inc. Share Trading Policy, e.g. a prescribed black-out period); |
(2) | cessation of your employment with EnerNOC Australia; and |
(3) | 7 years from the Grant Date of the Shares. |
- 3 -
The exception is that if you dispose of your Shares within 30 days of what would otherwise be the deferred taxing point (as set out in the above paragraph), the deferred taxing point will instead be the date of disposal of the Shares.
The discount on your Shares will typically be the market price of a Share at the deferred taxing point less any purchase price multiplied by the number of Shares (or, if the exception set out in the above paragraph applies, your disposal proceeds).
How does capital gains tax apply going forward?
Where tax deferral applies, you will be deemed to have acquired your Shares on the date the deferred taxing point occurs for the market value used in determining the discount on which tax is paid under the employee share scheme provisions.
Your Shares will be subject to the capital gains tax regime going forward. If a CGT event happens to your Shares you may realise a capital gain or loss.
Contact
If you have any queries in relation to the matters set out in this letter, please contact Jeff Renaud, Director, Australia & New Zealand, or Sonali Dias, Manager, Human Resources, of EnerNOC Australia.
Other terms and conditions
The term relating to your participation in the Australian Plan may be amended unilaterally by the Administrator where the Administrator considers it reasonably necessary to do so, even if your rights will be adversely affected by the amendment.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
To accept the Offer for Shares, please return a signed copy of the enclosed Agreement to:
Sonali Dias, Manager, Human Resources, of EnerNOC Australia
The Agreement must be received at the above address no later than 5pm AEST on [insert].
Yours faithfully
David Samuels, Executive Vice President of EnerNOC, Inc.
