SVB FINANCIAL GROUP

RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT

SVB Financial Group (the “Company”), pursuant to its 2006 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), has awarded to Participant Shares of Restricted Stock.

The Award hereunder is in connection with and in furtherance of the Company’s discretionary bonus program for participation of the Company’s Service Providers. Defined terms not explicitly defined in this Award Agreement shall have the same definitions as in the Plan or in the Notice of Grant of Restricted Stock (“Notice of Grant”), to which this Award Agreement is attached.

The details of your Award are as follows:

1. TOTAL NUMBER OF SHARES SUBJECT TO THIS AWARD. The total number of Shares subject to this Award is set forth in the Notice of Grant.

2. FORFEITURE RESTRICTION. Subject to the terms of Section 3(a), in the event Participant ceases to be a Service Provider for any or no reason (including death or Disability) before the respective Vesting Dates (as set forth in the Notice of Grant), Participant shall forfeit the then Unreleased Shares (defined below) to the Company. Upon such forfeiture, the Company shall become the legal and beneficial owner of the Shares being forfeited and all rights and interests therein or relating thereto, and the Company shall have the right to retain and transfer to its own name the number of Shares being forfeited.

3. RELEASE OF SHARES FROM FORFEITURE RESTRICTION.

(a) Subject to the limitations contained herein, the Shares will vest (be released) as set forth in the Notice of Grant until either (i) the Shares become fully vested or (ii) Participant ceases to be a Service Provider for any reason. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence of a Change in Control and subject to Participant’s “Covered Termination” (as defined in the Company’s Change in Control Severance Benefit Policy for Non-Executives), all then Unreleased Shares shall be released from the forfeiture restriction. (The period beginning on the date of this Award Agreement and ending on each respective Vesting Date shall be referred to as the “Period of Restriction”).

(b) Until the Shares have been released from the forfeiture restriction, they may be referred to herein as “Unreleased Shares.”

(c) The Unreleased Shares may bear the following forfeiture restrictive legend:

“THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO A RIGHT OF FORFEITURE IN FAVOR OF THE COMPANY, AS SET FORTH IN A STOCK AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE ISSUER AND THE ORIGINAL HOLDER OF THESE SHARES, A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE ISSUER.”

(d) The Share certificates representing the Shares, when released from the forfeiture restriction, shall be delivered to Participant pursuant to Section 4 of this Award Agreement.

4. ISSUANCE OF SHARE CERTIFICATES.

(a) The certificates evidencing the Shares shall be held in escrow by the secretary of the Company until the end of the respective Period of Restrictions (or earlier, upon a Covered Termination), at which time it shall be released to Participant by the Company in accordance with the provisions hereof.

(b) At the end of each Period of Restriction, the Company shall cause the appropriate certificate representing the Shares (then released from the forfeiture restriction) to be delivered to Participant; provided, however that prior to such delivery Participant shall remit to the Company an amount sufficient to satisfy any federal, state and/or local withholding tax requirements in connection with the Shares then to be released.

(c) Subject to the terms hereof, Participant shall have all the rights of a stockholder with respect to such Shares before the Shares are released from the forfeiture restriction, including without limitation, the right to vote the Shares and receive any cash dividends declared thereon. In the event of any dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, Shares, other securities, or other property), recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, repurchase, or exchange of Shares or other securities of the Company, or other change in the corporate structure of the Company affecting the Shares, the Unreleased Shares will be increased, reduced or otherwise changed, and by virtue of any such change Participant will in his or her capacity as owner of Unreleased Shares be entitled to new or additional or different shares of stock, cash or securities (other than rights or warrants to purchase securities); such new or additional or different shares, cash or securities will thereupon be considered to be Unreleased Shares and will be subject to all of the conditions and restrictions which were applicable to the Unreleased Shares pursuant to this Award Agreement. If Participant receives rights or warrants with respect to any Unreleased Shares, such rights or warrants may be held or exercised by Participant, provided that until such exercise any such rights or warrants and after such exercise any shares or other securities acquired by the exercise of such rights or warrants will be considered to be Unreleased Shares and will be subject to all of the conditions and restrictions which were applicable to the Unreleased Shares pursuant to this Award Agreement. The Administrator in its absolute discretion at any time may accelerate the vesting of all or any portion of such new or additional shares of stock, cash or securities, rights or warrants to purchase securities or shares or other securities acquired by the exercise of such rights or warrants.

5. ADJUSTMENTS. All references to the number of Shares in this Award Agreement shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect any dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, Shares, other securities, or other property), recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, repurchase, or exchange of Shares or other securities of the Company, or other change in the corporate structure of the Company affecting the Shares occurs after the date of this Award Agreement.

6. PARTICIPANT’S REPRESENTATIONS.

(a) Tax Consequences. Participant has reviewed with Participant’s own tax advisors the federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences of this investment and the transactions contemplated by this Award Agreement. Participant is relying solely on such advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company or any of its agents. Participant understands that Participant (and not the Company) shall be responsible for Participant’s own tax liability that may arise as a result of this investment or the transactions contemplated by this Award Agreement.

(b) Tax Withholding. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Award Agreement, no certificate representing the Shares of Restricted Stock may be released from the escrow established pursuant to Section 4, unless and until satisfactory arrangements (as determined by the Administrator) will have been made by Participant with respect to the payment of income, employment and other taxes which the Company determines must be withheld with respect to such Shares. To the extent determined appropriate by the Company in its discretion, it shall have the right (but not the obligation) to satisfy any tax withholding obligations by reducing the number of Shares otherwise deliverable to Participant. If Participant fails to make satisfactory arrangements for the payment of any required tax withholding obligations hereunder at the time any applicable Shares otherwise are scheduled to vest, Participant will permanently forfeit such Shares and the Shares will be returned to the Company at no cost to the Company.

7. AWARD NOT A SERVICE CONTRACT. This Award is not a guarantee of continued service and nothing in this Award shall be deemed to create in any way whatsoever any obligation on Participant’s part to continue in the service of the Company, or of the Company to continue Participant’s service with the Company. In addition, nothing in this Award shall obligate the Company or any Affiliate, or their respective stockholders, Board of Directors, officers or employees to continue any relationship which Participant might have as a Service Provider for the Company or Affiliate.

8. GOVERNING PLAN DOCUMENT. This Award is subject to all the provisions of the Plan, a copy of which is attached hereto and its provisions are hereby made a part of this Award, including without limitation the provisions of Section 8 of the Plan relating to Restricted Stock provisions, and 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 provisions of this Award and those of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall control.

9. ADDITIONAL CONDITIONS TO RELEASE FROM ESCROW. The Company will not be required to issue any certificate or certificates for Shares hereunder or release such Shares from the escrow established pursuant to Section 4 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 state or federal law or under the rulings or regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other governmental regulatory body, which the Administrator will, in its absolute discretion, deem necessary or advisable; (c) the obtaining of any approval or other clearance from any state or federal governmental agency, which the Administrator will, in its absolute discretion, determine to be necessary or advisable; and (d) the lapse of such reasonable period of time following the date of grant of the Restricted Stock as the Administrator may establish from time to time for reasons of administrative convenience.
