NON-DISCRETIONARY GRANT PROGRAM
Pursuant to the Restricted Stock Unit Award Grant Notice for Annual or Initial Grants (Grant Notice) and this Non-Discretionary Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement and in consideration of your services, Websense, Inc. (the Company) has awarded you a Restricted Stock Unit Award (the Award) pursuant to the Non-Discretionary Grant Program under its 2009 Equity Incentive Plan (the Plan). Your Award is granted to you effective as of the Date of Grant set forth in the Grant Notice for this Award. Defined terms not explicitly defined in this Non-Discretionary Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement shall have the same meanings given to them in the Plan. Except as otherwise explicitly provided herein, in the event of any conflict between the terms in this Non-Discretionary Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement and the Plan, the terms of the Plan shall control. The details of your Award, in addition to those set forth in the Grant Notice and the Plan, are as follows.
1. GRANT OF THE AWARD. This Award represents the right to be issued on a future date the number of shares of the Companys Common Stock equal to the number of Restricted Stock Units indicated in the Grant Notice. This Award was granted in consideration of your services to the Company. Except as otherwise provided herein, you will not be required to make any payment to the Company (other than past and future services to the Company) with respect to your receipt of the Award, the vesting of the Restricted Stock Units or the delivery of Common Stock.
2. VESTING.
(a) In General. Subject to the limitations contained herein, and to the potential vesting acceleration set forth in Sections 2(b) and 2(c) your Award will vest, if at all, in accordance with the vesting schedule provided in the Grant Notice, provided that vesting will cease upon the termination of your Continuous Service. Upon such termination of your Continuous Service, the Restricted Stock Units that were not vested on the date of such termination will be forfeited at no cost to the Company and you will have no further right, title or interest in or to such Restricted Stock Units.
(b) Death or Disability. Should your termination of Continuous Service occur due to your death or Disability, your Award shall automatically fully vest.
(c) Corporate Transaction and Change of Control.
(i) In the event of a Corporate Transaction in which your Award is not assumed, continued, or substituted by the surviving or acquiring corporation (or its parent company) prior to the effective time of the Corporate Transaction and your Continuous Service with the Company has not terminated as of, or immediately prior to, the effective time of the Corporate
2.
Transaction, then the vesting of your Restricted Stock Unit shall (contingent upon the effectiveness of the Corporate Transaction) be accelerated in full to a date prior to the effective time of such Corporate Transaction as the Board shall determine pursuant to Section 7(e)(v) of the Plan.
(ii) If a Change in Control occurs and your Continuous Service with the Company has not terminated as of, or immediately prior to, the effective time of the Change in Control, then, as of the effective time of such Change in Control, the Award will immediately vest in full.
3. NUMBER OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS.
(a) The number of Restricted Stock Units subject to your Award (and the corresponding number of shares of Common Stock issuable at a future date) may be adjusted from time to time to reflect changes in the Companys capital structure, as provided in Section 10(a) of the Plan.
(b) Any shares, cash or other property that becomes subject to the Award pursuant to this Section 3, 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 shares of Common Stock to be issued in respect of your Award.
(c) No fractional Restricted Stock Units shall be created and the Board shall, in its discretion, determine an equivalent benefit for any fractional Restricted Stock Units that might be created by such adjustments.
4. SECURITIES LAW COMPLIANCE. You may not be issued any shares of Common Stock in respect of your Award unless either (i) the shares are registered under the Securities Act; or (ii) the Company has determined that such issuance would be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Your Award also must comply with other applicable laws and regulations governing the Award, and you will not receive such shares if the Company determines that such receipt would not be in material compliance with such laws and regulations.
5. LIMITATIONS ON TRANSFER. Your Award is not transferable, except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. In addition to any other limitation on transfer created by applicable securities laws, you agree not to assign, hypothecate, donate, encumber or otherwise dispose of any interest in any of the shares of Common Stock that may be issued to you in respect of the Award until the shares are issued to you in accordance with Section 6 of this Agreement. After the shares have been issued to you, you are free to assign, hypothecate, donate, encumber or otherwise dispose of any interest in such shares provided that any such actions are in compliance with the provisions herein and applicable securities laws. Notwithstanding the foregoing, by delivering written notice to the Company, in a form satisfactory to the Company, you may designate a third party who, in the event of your death, shall thereafter be entitled to receive any distribution of Common Stock to which you were entitled at the time of your death pursuant to this Agreement.

6. DATE OF ISSUANCE.
(a) The Company will deliver to you a number of shares of the Companys Common Stock equal to the number of vested Restricted Stock Units subject to your Award, including any additional shares received pursuant to Section 3 above that relate to those vested Restricted Stock Units on the earlier of the: (i) last scheduled vesting date of your Award, (ii) the termination of your Continuous Service, (iii) the effective date of a Change of Control, or (iv) the effective date of a Corporate Transaction in which the vesting of the Award accelerates pursuant to Section 2(b)(i). Notwithstanding the foregoing and anything to the contrary set forth in the Plan, to the extent necessary to avoid adverse tax consequences under Internal Revenue Code Section 409A, in no event will the issuance of shares accelerate due to a Change of Control or a Corporate Transaction that does not constitute a change in the ownership or effective control of the Company, or in the ownership of a substantial portion of the Companys assets, as provided in Internal Revenue Code Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(v) and applicable guidance thereunder. If a scheduled delivery date falls on a date that is not a business day, such delivery date shall instead fall on the next following business day.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that you are subject to the Companys policy permitting officers and directors to sell shares only during certain window periods, in effect from time to time or you are otherwise prohibited from selling shares of the Companys Common Stock in the public market and any shares in respect of your Award are scheduled to be delivered on a day (the Original Distribution Date) that does not occur during an open window period applicable to you, as determined by the Company in accordance with such policy, or does not occur on a date when you are otherwise permitted to sell shares of the Companys Common Stock on the open market, the Company may elect, in its sole discretion, not to deliver such shares on such Original Distribution Date and instead deliver them on the first business day of the next occurring open window period applicable to you pursuant to such policy (regardless of whether you are still providing continuous services at such time) or the next business day when you are not prohibited from selling shares of the Companys Common Stock in the open market, but in no event later than the fifteenth (15th) day of the third calendar month of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Original Distribution Date occurs. The form of such delivery (e.g., a stock certificate or electronic entry evidencing such shares) shall be determined by the Company.
7. DIVIDENDS. You shall receive no benefit or adjustment to your Award with respect to any cash dividend, stock dividend or other distribution that does not result from a Capitalization Adjustment as provided in Section 10(a) of the Plan; provided, however, that this sentence shall not apply with respect to any shares of Common Stock that are delivered to you in connection with your Award after such shares have been delivered to you.
8. RESTRICTIVE LEGENDS. The shares issued under your Award shall be endorsed with appropriate legends determined by the Company.

(b) By accepting this Award, you acknowledge and agree that the right to continue vesting in the Award pursuant to the schedule set forth in Section 2 is earned only by continuing as an employee, director or consultant at the will of the Company (not through the act of being hired, being granted this Award or any other award or benefit) and that the Company has the right to reorganize, sell, spin-out or otherwise restructure one or more of its businesses or Affiliates at any time or from time to time, as it deems appropriate (a reorganization). You further acknowledge and agree that such a reorganization could result in the termination of your Continuous Service and the loss of benefits available to you under this Non-Discretionary Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement, including but not limited to, the termination of the right to continue vesting in the Award. You further acknowledge and agree that this Non-Discretionary Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement, the Plan, the transactions contemplated hereunder and the vesting schedule set forth herein or any covenant of good faith and fair dealing that may be found implicit in any of them do not constitute an express or implied promise of continued engagement as a director for the term of this Agreement, for any period, or at all, and shall not interfere in any way with your right or the Companys right to terminate your Continuous Service at any time, with or without cause and with or without notice.
10. WITHHOLDING OBLIGATIONS.
(a) You shall satisfy any applicable tax withholding obligation by (i) allowing the Company to withhold, from vested shares otherwise issuable in respect of the Award, a portion of those vested shares with an aggregate fair market value (measured as of the delivery date) not exceeding the applicable withholding taxes required to be withheld by law, and to tender a cash payment to the Company to satisfy any remaining amount of the tax withholding obligation or (ii) tendering a cash payment to the Company to satisfy the amount of the tax withholding obligation.
