Form of Stock Option Agreement under the 2011 Stock Plan

Unless specifically indicated in this Global Monthly-Grant Stock Option Agreement, including any addendum attached hereto (“Addendum”) containing country-specific terms and conditions (collectively, this “Agreement”), the terms defined in the 2011 Stock Plan (the “Plan”) will have the same defined meanings in this Agreement.

From time to time during your employment with the Company or one of its Subsidiaries, you (also known as the “Optionee”) may be granted Options to purchase Common Stock of the Company, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement. Upon each grant, the number of Shares granted, the date of grant, and the exercise price per share (the “Exercise Price”) shall be communicated to you by the Company. All Options granted to you pursuant to this Agreement shall be vested upon grant and treated as Nonstatutory Stock Options (“NSOs”). At present, the Company grants options on the first trading day of each month in accordance with the Company’s disclosed stock option formulae. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company retains the right to change the terms of this Agreement for any grants that are made to you after announcement of the changed terms, including the timing of grants, the disclosed stock option formulae or any inputs thereto. You acknowledge and agree that nothing in this Agreement constitutes an express or implied promise of continued grants, or benefits in lieu of grants, even if grants have been made in the past; it being expressly understood that grants to employees are, at all times, made in the sole and absolute discretion of the Administrator.

Vesting Schedule:

Options granted under this Agreement shall be vested immediately upon grant.

Termination Period:

In no event may Options granted hereunder be exercised later than the ten-year anniversary of the date of grant (the Option’s “Term”).

A.Grant of Option.

All Options granted to you hereunder by the Administrator are subject to all of the terms and conditions of the Plan, which is incorporated herein by reference. For example, but not by way of limitation, the Plan contains important provisions regarding termination and expiration of Options in the event of a Change in Control of the Company. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, in the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of the Plan and the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Plan shall prevail.

B.Nature of Grant.

In accepting the Options, you acknowledge, understand and agree that:

2.you are voluntarily participating in the Plan;

3.unless you do allocate a portion of your salary towards the acquisition of the Options (to the extent permitted by the Company and by applicable laws), the Options and any Shares acquired thereunder, and the income from and value of same, are not intended to replace any compensation owed to you by the Company or, if different, your employer (the "Employer");

4.regardless of whether you allocate salary toward the acquisition of Options, the Options and any Shares acquired thereunder, and the income from and value of same, are not part of normal or expected compensation for purposes of calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, end-of-service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar payments;

5.the future value of the Shares underlying the Options is unknown, indeterminable, and cannot be predicted with certainty;

6.if the underlying Shares do not increase in value, the Options will have no value;

7.if you exercise the Options and acquire Shares, the value of such Shares may increase or decrease in value, even below the Exercise Price;

8.no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from forfeiture of the Options;

9.unless otherwise provided in the Plan or by the Company in its discretion, the Options and the benefits evidenced by this Agreement do not create any entitlement to have the Options or any such benefits transferred to, or assumed by, another company nor to be exchanged, cashed out or substituted for, in connection with any corporate transaction affecting the Shares;

10.unless otherwise agreed with the Company, the Options and any Shares acquired thereunder, and the income from and value of same, are not granted as consideration for, or in connection with, the service you may provide as a director of a Subsidiary; and

ii.regardless of whether you allocate salary toward the acquisition of Options, the Options and any Shares acquired thereunder, and the income from and value of same, are not part of normal or expected compensation for any purpose.

C.Exercise of Option.

1.Right to Exercise. An Option granted hereunder is exercisable during the applicable Option’s Term in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Plan and this Agreement.

2.Method of Exercise. An Option granted hereunder is exercisable by delivery of an exercise notice, in the form of exercise notice found on the Company’s intranet site or as otherwise available from the Company (the “Exercise Notice”), which shall state the election to exercise an Option, the number of Shares in respect of which such Option is being exercised (the “Exercised Shares”), the date of grant of such Option, and such other representations and agreements as may be required by the Company pursuant to the provisions of the Plan. The Exercise Notice shall be properly completed by Optionee and delivered to the Stock Plan Administrator of the Company (or his or her designee). The Exercise Notice shall be accompanied by payment of the aggregate Exercise Price as to all Exercised Shares. An Option shall be deemed to be exercised upon receipt by the Company of such fully executed Exercise Notice accompanied by such aggregate Exercise Price.

The Company will not be required to issue any certificate or certificates for Shares hereunder prior to fulfillment of all the following conditions: (a) the admission of such Shares to listing on all stock exchanges on which such class of stock is then listed; (b) the completion of any registration or other qualification of such Shares under any U.S. or non-U.S. state or federal law or under the rulings or regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) or any other regulatory body, which the Administrator, in its absolute discretion, deems necessary or advisable (c) the obtaining of any approval or other clearance from any U.S. or non-U.S. governmental agency, which the Administrator, in its absolute discretion, determines to be necessary or advisable; and (d) the lapse of such reasonable period of time following the date of exercise as the Administrator may establish from time to time for reasons of administrative convenience. Optionee understands that the Company is under no obligation to register or qualify the Common Stock with the SEC or any other U.S. or non-U.S. state or federal securities commission or to seek approval or clearance from any governmental authority for the issuance or sale of the Shares. Further, Optionee agrees that the Company shall have unilateral authority to amend the Plan and the Agreement without Optionee’s consent to the extent necessary to comply with securities or other laws applicable to the issuance of Shares.

Assuming such compliance, for tax purposes the Exercised Shares shall be considered transferred to Optionee on the date the applicable Option is exercised with respect to such Exercised Shares.

D.Method of Payment.

Payment of the aggregate Exercise Price shall be by any of the following, or a combination thereof, at the election of Optionee, unless otherwise provided in the Addendum:

1.cash;

2.check;

3.consideration received by the Company under a cashless exercise program implemented by the Company in connection with the Plan; or

4.for U.S. taxpayers only, surrender of other Shares which (i) in the case of Shares acquired from the Company, have been owned by Optionee for more than six (6) months on the date of surrender, and (ii) have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender equal to the aggregate Exercise Price of the Exercised Shares.

E.Non-Transferability of Option.

Unless determined otherwise by the Administrator, an Option granted hereunder may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution and may be exercised, during the lifetime of the Optionee, only by the Optionee. If the Administrator makes an Option transferable, such Option will contain such additional terms and conditions as the Administrator deems appropriate. Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, the Optionee may, subject to such terms and conditions as the Administrator deems advisable, assign or transfer all or part of vested Options during an Optionee’s lifetime to (a) Optionee’s spouse, former spouse or dependent pursuant to a court-approved domestic relations order that relates to the provision of child support, alimony payments or marital property rights, or (b) trust or other similar estate planning entity that is solely for the benefit of the Optionee and/or the Optionee’s immediate family. In such case, the transferee shall receive and hold the Options subject to the provisions of this section, and there shall be no further assignation or transfer of the Options. The terms of the Plan and this Agreement shall be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs, successors and assigns of Optionee.

F.Tax Consequences and Responsibilities.

Optionee acknowledges that, regardless of any action taken by the Company or the Employer, the ultimate liability for all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to Optionee’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to Optionee (“Tax-Related Items”) is and remains Optionee’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the Employer. Optionee 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 Option, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting or exercise of the Option, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such exercise and the receipt of any dividends; and (ii) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Option to reduce or eliminate Optionee’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if Optionee is subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction, Optionee 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.

Prior to the relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, Optionee agrees to make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, Optionee authorizes the Company and/or the Employer, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy their withholding obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by withholding from proceeds of the sale of Shares acquired at exercise of the Options either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on Optionee’s behalf pursuant to this authorization without further consent).

The Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering maximum applicable rates, in which case Optionee may receive a cash refund of any over-withheld amount not remitted to tax authorities on Optionee’s behalf and will have no entitlement to the Shares equivalent.

Finally, Optionee agrees to pay to the Company or the Employer, including through withholding from Optionee’s wages or other cash compensation paid to Optionee by the Company and/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 Optionee’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to issue or deliver the Shares or the proceeds of the sale of Shares, if Optionee fails to comply with his or her obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.

G.Rights as a Stockholder.

Neither you nor any person claiming under or through you shall have any of the rights or privileges of a stockholder of the Company in respect of any Shares deliverable hereunder unless and until certificates representing such Shares shall have been issued (which may occur electronically), recorded on the records of the Company or its transfer agents or registrars, and delivered to Optionee. After such issuance, recordation and delivery, you will have all the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to voting such Shares and receipt of dividends and distributions on such Shares.

H.Address for Notices.

Any notice to be given to the Company under the terms of this Agreement shall be addressed to the Company at Netflix, Inc., Attention: Employee Services, 100 Winchester Circle, Los Gatos, CA 95032 (streamingemployeeservices@netflix.com), or at such other address as the Company may hereafter designate in writing.

M.No Guarantee of Continued Service.

The transactions contemplated hereunder do not constitute an express or implied promise of continued engagement as a Service Provider for the term of the Option, or any period at all, and shall not interfere with your right or the right of the Employer to terminate your relationship as a Service Provider at any time, with or without cause.

N.No Advice Regarding Grant.

The Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding Optionee’s participation in the Plan, or Optionee’s acquisition or sale of the Shares.

Local insider trading laws and regulations may prohibit the cancellation or amendment of orders Optionee placed before possessing inside information. Furthermore, Optionee may be prohibited from (i) disclosing insider information to any third party, including fellow employees (other than on a “need to know” basis) and (ii) “tipping” third parties or causing them to otherwise buy or sell securities. Any restrictions under these laws or regulations are separate from and in addition to any restrictions that may be imposed under the Netflix, Inc. Insider Trading Policy.
