    THIS GLOBAL GRANT AGREEMENT, including any special terms and conditions set forth in Appendices A and B attached hereto (collectively the “Grant Agreement”), as of the Grant Date noted above between Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company, a Delaware corporation (“Company” or “HPE”), and the Employee named above (“Team Member”), is entered into as follows:

    WHEREAS, the continued participation of the Team Member is considered by the Company to be important for the Company’s continued growth; and

    WHEREAS, in order to align the interests of the Team Member with those of the shareholders of the Company and to facilitate the consistent governance of its internal affairs, and to give the Team Member an incentive to continue in the employ of the Company (or its Affiliates or Subsidiaries) and to accept any ancillary agreements designed to protect the legitimate business interests of the Company that are made a condition of this grant, the HR and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company or its delegates (“Committee”) has determined that the Team Member shall be granted restricted stock units representing hypothetical shares of the Company’s common stock (“RSUs”), with each RSU equal in value to one share of the Company’s $0.01 par value common stock (“Share”), subject to the restrictions stated below and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the plan named above (“Plan”), a copy of which can be found on the Long-term Incentives website along with a copy of the related prospectus. The Plan and the related prospectus also can be obtained by written or telephonic request to the Company Secretary. Unless otherwise defined in this Grant Agreement, any capitalized terms in this Grant Agreement shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the Plan.

    THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:

1.Grant of Restricted Stock Units; Team Member Acceptance Procedures.
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Grant Agreement and of the Plan, the Company hereby grants to the Team Member the number of RSUs set forth above. As is described below, if the Team Member declines this Grant Agreement via the Merrill Benefits Online® website (www.mybenefits.ml.com) or fails to accept this Grant Agreement via the Merrill Benefits Online® website by an applicable deadline set forth below, then the RSUs shall terminate and will become null and void.

If the Team Member resides in a European Economic Area or European Union member state or in Brazil or in Israel, due to legal requirements, the Team Member must accept this Grant Agreement via the Merrill Benefits Online® website (www.mybenefits.ml.com) by the “Acceptance Deadline” below or the RSUs shall terminate and will become null and void. The Acceptance Deadline is the earlier of: (i) the date eleven (11) months after the Grant Date above (e.g., if Grant Date is December 1st, this date would be the following November 1st) and (ii) the Team Member’s last day of employment. However, if the Acceptance Deadline would otherwise be a weekend, U.S. holiday or other non-trading day, the Acceptance Deadline will instead be the next following trading day for the New York Stock Exchange.

If the Team Member does not reside in a European Economic Area or European Union member state nor in Brazil nor in Israel and also does not agree with the terms and conditions of this Grant Agreement, then the Team Member must reject via the Merrill Benefits Online® website (www.mybenefits.ml.com) by the date forty-five (45) days after the Grant Date. If not rejected via the Merrill website by that deadline, then the Company will automatically accept the Grant Agreement on the Team Member's behalf (except in the case of Vice President-level and higher roles as described in the immediately following paragraph). The Team Member may not decline this Grant on or after the date the Company automatically accepts the Grant Agreement in this manner (i.e., on or after forty-five (45) days from the Grant Date).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Team Member is employed in a Vice President-level or higher level role (which includes without limitation Fellow, Senior Fellow, Senior Vice President, Executive Vice President, and Executive Committee positions), and
1


is notified by the Company of a requirement to accept the Grant Agreement and additional agreements as described in Section 17, then the Team Member must accept this Grant Agreement (and the additional agreements dictated by the Company) within 75 days of the Grant Date listed above (or, if such 75th day is a weekend, U.S. holiday or other non-trading day, then the following NYSE trading day).

2.Vesting Schedule.
The interest of the Team Member in the RSUs shall vest according to the vesting schedule set forth above, or if earlier, in accordance with Section 8 or 9, below, except to the extent a severance plan applicable to the Team Member provides otherwise. Unless the provisions of Section 8, 9 or 10 apply, the Team Member must remain in the employ of the Company or any approved Subsidiary or Affiliate on a continuous basis through the close of business on the applicable vesting date, as set forth above, and the Team Member must be in compliance with the requirements and conditions provided for in the Plan and this Grant Agreement in order for the interest of the Team Member in the RSUs to become fully vested on that date. For purposes of the preceding sentence, approved Subsidiaries do not include any Subsidiaries determined by the Administrator from time-to-time as being managed at arm’s length from HPE (currently Hewlett-Packard CDS Nederland B.V. and its subsidiaries); therefore the RSUs shall not continue to vest during employment with any such Subsidiary that is not an approved Subsidiary.

3.Benefit Upon Vesting.
Within 75 days of each vesting date set forth on the above vesting schedule or, if earlier, a vesting event pursuant to Section 8 or 9 below, the Company shall deliver or pay, as applicable, to the Team Member (or the Team Member’s guardian, estate or beneficiary in the event of Section 8 or 9) Shares or a combination of cash and Shares, as the Company determines in its sole discretion, with a value equal to:

(a)    the number of RSUs that have become vested as of such vesting date or vesting event, as applicable, multiplied by the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date on which such RSUs vested; plus
(b)    a dividend equivalent payment determined by:
(1)multiplying, separately, the number of RSUs that became vested as determined in Section 3(a) by the dividend per Share on each dividend payment date between the Grant Date and the applicable vesting date to determine the dividend equivalent amount for each applicable dividend payment date;
(2)dividing the amount determined in Section 3(b)(1) by the Fair Market Value of a Share on the dividend payment date to determine the number of additional whole and fractional RSUs to be credited to the Team Member; and
(3)multiplying the number of additional whole and fractional RSUs determined in Section 3(b)(2) by the Fair Market Value of a Share on the vesting date to determine the aggregate value of dividend equivalent payments for such vested RSUs;
provided, however, that if any aggregated dividend equivalent payments in Section 3(b)(2) above to be delivered in Shares results in a payment of a fractional Share, such fractional Share shall be rounded up to the nearest whole Share.

4.Restrictions.
Except as otherwise provided for in this Grant Agreement, the RSUs or rights granted hereunder may not be sold, pledged or otherwise transferred. The period of time between the Grant Date and the date the RSUs become fully vested pursuant to Section 2 is referred to herein as the “Restriction Period.”
5.Custody of Restricted Stock Units.
The RSUs subject hereto shall be recorded in an account with the Plan broker in the name of the Team Member. Upon termination of the Restriction Period, if the Company determines, in its sole discretion, to deliver Shares pursuant to Section 3 above, such Shares shall be released into the Team Member’s account; provided, however, that a portion of such Shares shall be surrendered in payment of Tax-Related Items, as defined and in accordance with Section 12 below, unless the Company, in its sole discretion, establishes alternative procedures for the payment of Tax-Related Items.

6.No Stockholder Rights.
RSUs represent hypothetical Shares. The Team Member shall not be entitled to any of the rights or benefits generally accorded to stockholders until the Shares are issued to the Team Member pursuant to the terms of this Grant Agreement and the Team Member becomes a holder of record of the Shares following the vesting of the RSUs.

7.Termination of Employment.
Except as otherwise provided for in this Grant Agreement or in the Plan or as otherwise determined by the Company in its sole discretion, if the Team Member’s employment with the Company (including any approved Subsidiary or Affiliate) is terminated at any time for any reason prior to the lapse of the Restriction Period, all unvested RSUs granted hereunder shall be forfeited by the Team Member, except to the extent a severance plan applicable to the Team Member provides otherwise. For purposes of the preceding sentence, approved Subsidiaries do not include any Subsidiaries determined by the Administrator from time-to-time as being managed at arm’s length from HPE (currently Hewlett-Packard CDS Nederland B.V. and its subsidiaries); therefore the unvested RSUs would forfeit if employment transfers from HPE or approved Subsidiaries to employment with any such Subsidiary that is not an approved Subsidiary.

For purposes of this Grant Agreement, the Team Member’s employment or service will be considered terminated as of the date the Team Member is no longer actively providing services to the Company (including any approved Subsidiary or Affiliate) (regardless of the reason for such termination and whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction where the Team Member is employed or retained or the terms of the Team Member’s employment or service agreement, if any) and will not be extended by any notice period (e.g., the Team Member’s period of employment or service would not include any contractual notice period, common law notice period, severance notice period, or any period of “garden leave” or similar period mandated under the employment laws in the jurisdiction where the Team Member is employed or retained or the terms of the Team Member’s employment or service agreement, if any). The Committee shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when the Team Member’s employment or service is terminated for purposes of this Grant Agreement (including whether the Team Member may still be considered to be providing service while on a leave of absence).
2



8.Disability of the Team Member.
If the Team Member’s employment is terminated prior to the end of the Restriction Period by reason of the Team Member’s total and permanent disability, all RSUs shall immediately vest including any amounts for dividend equivalent payments on RSUs that vest at termination subject to the condition that, if applicable, the Team Member shall have executed a current Agreement Regarding Confidential Information and Proprietary Developments (“ARCIPD”) that is satisfactory to the Company, and shall not, during the Team Member’s active employment with the Company and any-post employment period during which the RSUs remain outstanding, have engaged in any conduct that is in violation of any agreement with the Company concerning confidentiality of Company information or post-employment restrictive covenants.

9.Death of the Team Member.
In the event of the Team Member’s death prior to the end of the Restriction Period, all unvested and outstanding RSUs shall immediately vest including any amounts for dividend equivalent payments on such vested RSUs.

10.Retirement of the Team Member.
If the Team Member’s employment is terminated more than three months after the Grant Date and prior to the end of the Restriction Period by reason of the Team Member’s retirement in accordance with the applicable retirement policy of the Company, all unvested RSUs shall continue to vest and payout in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth above subject to the condition that, if applicable, the Team Member shall have executed a current ARCIPD that is satisfactory to the Company, and shall not, during the Team Member’s active employment with the Company and any-post employment period during which the RSUs remain outstanding, have engaged in any conduct that is in violation of any agreement with the Company concerning confidentiality of Company information or post-employment restrictive covenants.

11.Section 409A.
This section applies to the extent the Team Member is subject to taxation in the U.S. Payments made pursuant to the Plan and this Grant Agreement are intended to comply with or qualify for an exemption from Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”). The Company reserves the right, to the extent the Company deems necessary or advisable in its sole discretion, to unilaterally amend or modify the Plan and/or this Grant Agreement or adopt other policies and procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive effect), or take any other actions, including any amendments or actions that would result in the reduction of benefits payable under this Grant Agreement, as the Company determines are necessary or appropriate to ensure that all RSUs are made in a manner that qualifies for an exemption from, or complies with, Section 409A or mitigate any additional tax, interest and/or penalties or other adverse tax consequences that may apply under Section 409A; provided however, that the Company makes no representations that the RSUs will be exempt from any penalties that may apply under Section 409A and makes no undertaking to preclude Section 409A from applying to this RSU. For the avoidance of doubt, the Team Member hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Company will have no liability to the Team Member or any other party if any amounts payable under this Grant Agreement are not exempt from, or compliant with, Section 409A, or for any action taken by the Company with respect thereto. Any payments under this Grant Agreement that are considered non-qualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A (“NQDC”) and are payable on the date of, or a date that is determined by reference to, the Team Member's “separation from service” (within the meaning of Section 409A) of a “specified employee” (as defined under Section 409A), shall be made on a date that is the earliest of (a) the Team Member’s death, (b) the original specified settlement date and (c) the date which is one day following six months after the date of the Team Member’s separation from service. If the RSUs or dividend equivalents are considered NQDC and the payment period contemplated in Sections 8 or 10 crosses a calendar year, the RSUs or dividend equivalents shall be paid in the second calendar year.

12.Taxes.
(a)The Team Member shall be liable for any and all taxes, including income tax, social insurance, fringe benefit tax, payroll tax, payment on account, employer taxes or other tax-related items related to the Team Member’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to or otherwise recoverable from the Team Member by the Company and/or, if different, the Team Member’s employer (the “Employer”) whether incurred at grant, vesting, sale, prior to vesting or at any other time (“Tax-Related Items”). In the event that the Company or the Employer (which, for purposes of this Section 12, shall include a former employer) is required, allowed or permitted to withhold Tax-Related Items as a result of the RSUs or the Shares acquired pursuant to such RSUs, or due upon receipt of dividend equivalent payments or dividends, the Team Member shall surrender a sufficient number of whole Shares, make a cash payment or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to withhold such Tax-Related Items from the Team Member’s wages or other cash compensation paid to the Team Member by the Company and/or the Employer at the election of the Company, in its sole discretion, or, if permissible under local law, the Company may sell or arrange for the sale of Shares that the Team Member acquires as necessary to cover all Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer has to withhold or that are legally recoverable from the Team Member (such as fringe benefit tax), unless the Company, in its sole discretion, has established alternative procedures for such payment. If Team Member is categorized as an Officer, then the exclusive procedure for satisfying the Team Member’s obligation regarding Tax-Related Items will be Company withholding of Shares from the Shares otherwise issuable to the Team Member as a result of the award vesting, except as specifically approved otherwise by the Committee. However, with respect to any RSUs subject to Section 409A, the Employer shall limit the surrender of Shares to the minimum number of Shares permitted to avoid a prohibited acceleration under Section 409A. The Team Member will receive a cash refund for any fraction of a surrendered Share or Shares in excess of any and all Tax-Related Items. To the extent that any surrender of Shares or payment of cash or alternative procedure for such payment is insufficient, the Team Member authorizes the Company, its Affiliates and Subsidiaries, which are qualified to deduct tax at source, to deduct from the Team Member’s compensation all Tax-Related Items. The Team Member agrees to pay any Tax-Related Items that cannot be satisfied from wages or other cash compensation, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law.

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 applicable rates in the Team Member’s jurisdiction(s), in which case the Team Member will receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash and will have no entitlement to the Share equivalent. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in Shares, for tax purposes, the Team Member is deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject to the vested RSUs, notwithstanding that a number of the Shares is held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of any aspect of the Team Member’s participation in the Plan.

3


(b)Regardless of any action the Company or the Employer takes with respect to any or all Tax-Related Items, the Team Member acknowledges and agrees that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items is and remains the Team Member’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the Employer, if any. The Team Member further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer: (i) make no representations nor undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of this grant of RSUs or dividend equivalents, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting or settlement of RSUs or dividend equivalents, the subsequent delivery of Shares and/or cash upon settlement of such RSUs or the subsequent sale of any Shares acquired pursuant to such RSUs and receipt of any dividends or dividend equivalent payments; and (ii) notwithstanding Section 11, do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms or any aspect of this grant of RSUs and/or dividend equivalents to reduce or eliminate the Team Member’s liability for Tax-Related Items or to achieve any particular tax result. Further, if the Team Member has become subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction, the Team Member acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction. The Team Member shall pay 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 the Team Member’s participation in the Plan or the Team Member’s receipt of RSUs that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to deliver the benefit described in Section 3 if the Team Member fails to comply with the Team Member’s obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.

(c)In accepting the RSUs, the Team Member consents and agrees that in the event the RSUs or the dividend equivalents become subject to an employer tax that is legally permitted to be recovered from the Team Member, as may be determined by the Company and/or the Employer at their sole discretion, and whether or not the Team Member’s employment with the Company and/or the Employer is continuing at the time such tax becomes recoverable, the Team Member will assume any liability for any such taxes that may be payable by the Company and/or the Employer in connection with the RSUs and dividend equivalents. Further, by accepting the RSUs, the Team Member agrees that the Company and/or the Employer may collect any such taxes from the Team Member by any of the means set forth in this Section 12. The Team Member further agrees to execute any other consents or elections required to accomplish the above, promptly upon request of the Company.

4


(a)all decisions with respect to future grants, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company;

The Team Member is hereby advised to consult with the Team Member's own personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding the Team Member's participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan.

17.Additional Eligibility Requirements For Certain Executives.
In addition to any other eligibility criteria provided for in the Plan, and as a condition of this Grant Agreement, the Company may require that the Team Member execute separate documents agreeing to the terms of a current arbitration agreement and/or a current ARCIPD and/or the Company’s Dodd-Frank Clawback Policy, each in a form acceptable to the Company, and the Company may further require that the Team Member be in compliance with the ARCIPD throughout the entire Restriction Period and through the date the RSU is to be granted or settled. If such separate documents are required by the Company and the Team Member does not accept them within 75 days of the Grant Date or such other date as of which the Company shall require in its discretion, this RSU shall be canceled and the Team Member shall have no further rights under this Grant Agreement. However, if the 75-day deadline to accept the Grant Agreement would otherwise be a weekend, holiday or other non-trading day, the deadline will instead be the next following trading day for the New York Stock Exchange.

In the event the Team Member is required to execute an ARCIPD as an eligibility condition for this grant, then the terms and conditions set forth in remainder of this Section 17 will apply to the Team Member.

(a)If the Team Member violates or threatens to violate a “Protective Covenant” (as defined in the ARCIPD), the Company will, where permitted by controlling law, be entitled to withhold or recover the benefits of compliance with this Grant Agreement and pursue and receive such additional remedies as are provided for in the ARCIPD (which are incorporated by reference herein).

(b)The enforceability of the Protective Covenants as written (and the Team Member’s agreement to comply with them as a whole) and the Company’s agreement to provide the Team Member the items of benefit conveyed by this Grant Agreement (by way of example only, shares, stock options, stock units, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, or cash awards (the conveyed “Incentives”)) are mutually dependent. In the event the Protective Covenants are held to be void, voidable or unenforceable by a court or arbiter (in whole or in any part deemed material by the Company), the Company’s obligations under this Grant Agreement shall be voidable at the election of the Company and where permitted by law the Company shall have the right to terminate any unvested Incentives and recover from the Team Member the Incentives granted to the Team Member under this Grant Agreement, or if the Team Member no longer possesses the Incentives then the monetary value of the Incentives at the time the Team Member sold or otherwise transferred the Incentives to another party.

(c)The Team Member stipulates that the benefits provided to the Team Member through this Grant Agreement are of significant and meaningful value, and serve as additional, mutually agreed upon, fair and reasonable consideration for the Team Member’s agreement to adhere to the Protective Covenants. The Team Member has been notified that the Team Member has the right to consult legal counsel prior to signing this Grant Agreement. The Team Member was provided at least 14 days to consider this Grant Agreement before being required to execute it, and if the Team Member executes it before the expiration of 14 days then the Team Member does so voluntarily with the intent to waive the unused remainder of the 14 days allowed.

(d) Nothing in this Grant Agreement, the ARCIPD, or any other agreement referred to or incorporated herein, prohibits Team Member from opposing or reporting to a relevant law-enforcement agency (such as but not limited to the Securities and Exchange Commission, Department of Labor, National Labor Relations Board, Equal Employment Opportunities Commission, Occupational Safety and Health Commission or law enforcement) an event that Team Member reasonably and in good faith believe is a violation of law, obligates Team Member to inform HPE before or after making such a report, prohibits Team Member from cooperating in an investigation conducted by such a government agency, limits or affects Team Member’s right to disclose or discuss criminal conduct, unlawful employment practices, unlawful acts in the workplace, discrimination, harassment (including but not limited to sexual harassment or sexual assault), retaliation or workplace health and safety hazards, prohibits Team Member from sharing such information with Team Member’s personal legal counsel, or prohibits Team Member from providing truthful testimony in a legal, administrative or arbitration proceeding.

(e)The limitations agreed to by the Team Member in this section are voluntary, not a term or condition of employment, and a matter of choice for the Team Member. The Team Member will have the choice between complying with the terms of this section or forgoing the benefits that the Team Member would otherwise receive under the Grant Agreement. Nothing in this section shall be applied to the extent that it would violate controlling law or impose a penalty or restriction that violates controlling law.

18.Appendices.
Notwithstanding any provisions in this Grant Agreement or the Plan, if the Team Member resides in a country outside the United States or is otherwise subject to the law of country other than the United States, the RSU grant shall be subject to the additional terms and conditions set forth in Appendix A to this Grant Agreement and to any additional terms and conditions set forth in Appendix B to this Grant Agreement for the Team Member’s country. Moreover, if the Team Member relocates to one of the countries included in Appendix B, the additional terms and conditions for such country will apply to the Team Member, to the extent
5


the Company determines that the application of such terms and conditions is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons. Appendices A and B constitute part of this Grant Agreement.

In addition, the Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on the Team Member’s participation in the Plan, on the RSUs and on any Shares acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons, and to require the Team Member to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing.

All actions and proceedings seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any right arising out of, this Grant Agreement that can be brought in a court of law in accordance with any arbitration agreement that may exist between the parties must be brought against either of the parties in a court of proper subject matter jurisdiction located in either: (i) Texas or (ii) Delaware; and each of the parties consents to the personal jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts) in any such action or proceeding and waives any objection to venue laid therein.

(a)The Company shall not be required to treat as owner of RSUs and any associated benefits hereunder, any transferee to whom such RSUs or benefits shall have been transferred in violation of any of the provisions of this Grant Agreement.

(b)The parties agree to execute such further instruments and to take such action as may reasonably be necessary to carry out the intent of this Grant Agreement.

(c)The Plan is incorporated herein by reference. The Plan and this Grant Agreement constitute the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede in their entirety all prior undertakings and agreements of the Company and the Team Member with respect to the subject matter hereof, other than the terms of any severance plan applicable to the Team Member that provides more favorable vesting and the terms of the Team Member’s ARCIPD which are expressly preserved. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in the Plan or this Grant Agreement shall affect the validity or interpretation of any duly authorized written agreement between the Company and the Team Member under which an award properly granted under and pursuant to the Plan serves as any part of the consideration furnished to the Team Member. This Grant Agreement is voluntarily entered into and is not a condition of employment with the Company.

(d)The provisions of this Grant Agreement are severable and if any one or more provisions are determined to be illegal, void, voidable or otherwise unenforceable, in whole or in part, then the remaining provisions shall nevertheless be binding and enforceable.

(e)Notwithstanding Sections 20(c) and 20(d), the Company’s obligations under this Grant Agreement and the Team Member’s agreement to the terms of an arbitration agreement and/or an ARCIPD, if any, are mutually dependent. In the event that the Team Member breaches the arbitration agreement or the Team Member’s ARCIPD is breached or found void, voidable or otherwise not binding upon the Team Member for any reason by a court of law, then the Company will have no further obligation or duty to perform under the Plan or this Grant Agreement.

(f)A waiver by the Company of a breach of any provision of this Grant Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other provision of this Grant Agreement, or of any subsequent breach by the Team Member or any other participant in the Plan.

(g)The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on the Team Member’s participation in the Plan, on the RSUs and on any Shares acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons, and to require the Team Member to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing.

(h)Any notice required or permitted hereunder to the Team Member shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon delivery to the Team Member at the address then on file with the Company.

The Team Member is not required to consent to the electronic delivery of documents.

2.Privacy Notice and Consent.
    
(a)The Company is located at 1701 East Mossy Oaks Road, Spring, Texas 77389, U.S.A., and grants Employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries RSUs, at the Company’s sole discretion. If the Team Member would like to participate in the Plan, the Team Member should review the following information about the Company’s data processing practices and declare the Team Member's consent by accepting this Grant Agreement on the Benefits Online® website of Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Inc. (“Merrill”).

(b)Data Collection and Usage. The Company collects, processes and uses personal data of participants, specifically: the Team Member’s name, home address, email address, telephone number, date of birth, hire/rehire date, termination date (if applicable), termination classification code, employee identification number, payroll country, business division, directorship held in the Company (including its subsidiaries), and details of all RSUs, canceled, vested, or outstanding in the Team Member’s favor, which the Company receives from the Team Member or the Employer. If the Company offers the Team Member a grant of RSUs under the Plan, then the Company will collect the Team Member’s personal data for purposes of allocating stock and implementing, administering and managing the Plan. The Company’s legal basis, where required, for the processing of the Team Member’s personal data would be the Team Member's consent.

(c)Stock Plan Administration Service Providers. The Company transfers participant data, or parts thereof, to Merrill, an independent service provider based in the United States, which assists the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. In the future, the Company may select one or more different U.S. based service providers and share the Team Member’s data with other companies that serve in a similar manner. The Company’s service providers will open an account for the Team Member to receive and trade stock. The Team Member will be asked to agree on separate terms and data processing practices with the service providers, which is a condition to the Team Member’s ability to participate in the Plan. The service providers are responsible for processing any personal data they collect from the Team Member in compliance with applicable law.

(d)International Data Transfers. The Company and Merrill are based in the United States. If the Team Member is based outside the United States, the Team Member should note that the Team Member's personal data will be transferred to service providers in the United States and may be transferred onward to other countries Merrill and its affiliates and sub-processors operate it. In this case, the Company’s legal basis for the transfer of the Team Member’s personal data to its United States operations and its U.S. based service providers is the Team Member's consent. Information regarding international data transfers within the Company can be found in the Employee Privacy Policy.

(e)Data Retention. The Company will use the Team Member’s personal data only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage the Team Member’s participation in the Plan or as required to comply with legal or regulatory obligations, including under tax and security laws. When the Company no longer needs the Team Member’s personal data, which will generally be seven years after the Team Member is granted RSUs under the Plan, the Company will remove it from its systems. If the Company keeps data longer, it would be to satisfy legal or regulatory obligations and the Company’s legal basis would be compliance with the relevant laws or regulations.

(f)Voluntariness and Consequences of Consent Denial or Withdrawal. The Team Member’s participation in the Plan and the Team Member’s grant of consent is purely voluntary. Depending on the Team Member’s country, they may have the right to deny or withdraw consent at any time by contacting the Company at Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company, Attn: Legal Department, 1701 East Mossy Oaks Road, Spring, Texas 77389, U.S.A. If the Team Member does not consent, or if the Team Member withdraws the Team Member's consent, the Team Member cannot participate in the Plan. This would not affect the Team Member’s salary as an employee or the Team Member's career; the Team Member would merely forfeit the opportunities associated with the Plan.

(g)Data Subject Rights, International Data Transfers. Information regarding data subject rights and transfers of personal data to third countries is available in the Company’s Employee Privacy Policy.

(h)Right to File Complaint with a Supervisory Authority. If the Team Member considers that the processing of the Team Member’s personal data infringes the European General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) or other applicable privacy law, the Team Member has the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority in the country where the Team Member works or where the Team Member considers that the data protection rules have been breached.

(i)The Company’s Data Protection Officer. The Company’s Chief Privacy Officer has been appointed as the Data Protection Officer (“DPO”) for many of the countries the Company operates in. The Team Member can contact the DPO by sending an email to hpeprivacy@hpe.com.

3.Language. The Team Member acknowledges and represents that the Team Member is proficient in the English language, or has consulted with an advisor who is sufficiently proficient in English, so as to allow the Team Member to understand the terms of this Grant Agreement, including this Appendix A, Appendix B and any other documents related to the Plan.

A-2


If the Team Member has received the Grant Agreement, including Appendices A and B, or any other document related to the Plan translated into a language other than English and if the translated version is different than the English version, the English version will control, unless otherwise prescribed by local law.

4.Insider Trading/Market Abuse Laws.
The Team Member acknowledges and understands that, depending on the Team Member’s or broker’s country of residence or where the Company Shares are listed, the Team Member may be subject to insider trading restrictions and/or market abuse laws, which may affect the Team Member’s ability to accept, acquire, sell or otherwise dispose of Shares or rights to Shares during times the Team Member is considered to have “inside information” regarding the Company (as defined by the laws in the Team Member’s country). Local insider trading laws and regulations may prohibit the cancellation or amendment of orders the Team Member placed before the Team Member possessed inside information.  Furthermore, the Team Member could be prohibited from (i) disclosing the inside information to any third party (other than on a “need to know” basis) and (ii) “tipping” third parties or causing them otherwise to buy or sell securities.  Keep in mind third parties includes fellow employees. Any restrictions under these laws or regulations are separate from and in addition to any restrictions that may be imposed under any applicable Company insider trading policy. The Team Member acknowledges that it is the Team Member's responsibility to comply with such regulations and that the Team Member should consult with the Team Member's personal advisor on this matter.

5.Exchange Control, Tax and Foreign Asset/Account Reporting Requirements. The Team Member acknowledges that there may be exchange control, tax, foreign asset and/or account reporting requirements which may affect the Team Member’s ability to acquire or hold Shares or cash received from participating in the Plan (including from any dividends paid on Shares acquired under the Plan) in a brokerage or bank account outside the Team Member’s country. The Team Member may be required to report such accounts, balances, assets and/or the related transactions to the tax or other authorities in the Team Member's country. The Team Member also may be required to repatriate sale proceeds or other funds received as a result of the Team Member’s participation in the Plan to the Team Member's country through a designated bank or broker within a certain time after receipt. The Team Member acknowledges that it is the Team Member’s responsibility to be compliant with such regulations, and the Team Member should consult the Team Member's personal legal advisor for any details.

Labor Law Acknowledgment

By accepting this grant of RSUs, the Team Member understands, acknowledges and agrees with the following:
B-14



The RSUs are not related to the salary and other contractual benefits granted to the Team Member by the Employer; and any modification of the Plan or its termination shall not constitute a change or impairment of the terms and conditions of employment.
Policy Statement
The invitation the Company is making under the Plan is unilateral and discretionary and, therefore, the Company reserves the absolute right to amend it and discontinue it at any time without any liability to the Team Member.
The Company, with its registered office at 1701 East Mossy Oaks Road, Spring, Texas 77389, U.S.A., is solely responsible for the administration of the Plan. Participation in the Plan and the acquisition of Shares does not, in any way, establish an employment relationship between the Team Member and the Company since the Team Member is participating in the Plan on a wholly commercial basis and the sole employer is the Employer, nor does it establish any rights between the Team Member and Employer.
Plan Document Acknowledgment
By accepting the RSUs, the Team Member acknowledges he/she has received a copy of the Plan, has reviewed the Plan and the Grant Agreement in their entirety and fully understands and accepts all provisions of the Plan and the Grant Agreement.
In addition, by signing below, the Team Member further acknowledges that having read and specifically and expressly approved the terms and conditions in Appendix A: Section 1 (“Acknowledgment and Waiver”), in which the following is clearly described and established: (i) participation in the Plan does not constitute an acquired right; (ii) the Plan and participation in the Plan is offered by the Company on a wholly discretionary basis; (iii) participation in the Plan is voluntary; and (iv) the Company, its Subsidiaries and its Affiliates are not responsible for any decrease in the value of the Shares underlying the RSUs.
Finally, the Team Member does not reserve any action or right to bring any claim against the Company for any compensation or damages as a result of participation in the Plan and the Team Member therefore grants a full and broad release to his/her Employer and the Company and its other Subsidiaries and Affiliates with respect to any claim that may arise under the Plan.

Securities Law Notification
Warning
This is a grant of RSUs. The underlying Shares give you a stake in the ownership of the Company. The Team Member may receive a return if dividends are paid.
If the Company runs into financial difficulties and is wound up, the Team Member will be paid only after all creditors and holders of preference shares have been paid. The Team Member may lose some or all of the Team Member's investment.
New Zealand law normally requires people who offer financial products to give information to investors before they invest. This information is designed to help investors to make an informed decision. The usual rules do not apply to this offer because it is made under an employee share purchase scheme. As a result, the Team Member may not be given all the information usually required. The Team Member will also have fewer other legal protections for this investment.
For more information on risk factors impacting the Company’s business that may affect the value of the shares of Common Stock, I should refer to the risk factors discussion in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, which are filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and are available online at www.sec.gov, as well as on the Company’s website at: https://investors.hpe.com.

In addition, the Team Member understands that this grant would not be made to the Team Member but for the assumptions and conditions referred to above; thus, the Team Member acknowledges and freely accepts that should any or all of the assumptions be mistaken or should any of the conditions not be met for any reason, then the RSUs shall be null and void.

UNITED KINGDOM
Terms and Conditions
Payout of RSUs in Shares Only
Pursuant to its discretion under Section 2(ii) of the Plan and Section 3 of the Grant Agreement, with respect to all Employees residing in the United Kingdom, the Company will convert all vested RSUs only into an equivalent number of Shares. Employees residing in the United Kingdom (or in the event of death, such Employee’s legal representative) will not receive an equivalent cash payment with respect to vested RSUs.
Tax Withholding
This provision supplements Section 12 of the Grant Agreement:
The Team Member agrees that the Team Member is liable for all Tax-Related Items and hereby covenants to pay all such Tax-Related Items, as and when requested by the Company, the Employer or by HM Revenue & Customs (“HMRC”) (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority). The Team Member also agrees to indemnify and keep indemnified the Company and the Employer against any Tax-Related Items that they are required to pay or withhold or have paid or will pay to HMRC (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority) on the Team Member’s behalf. For purposes of the Grant Agreement, Tax-Related Items include (without limitation) employment income tax, employee national insurance contributions (“NICs”).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Team Member is a director or executive officer of the Company (within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act), the Team Member understands that the Team Member may not be able to indemnify the Company for the amount of any income tax not collected from or paid by the Team Member within ninety (90) days of the end of the U.K. tax year in which the event giving rise to the Tax-Related Items occurs as it may be considered to be a loan and therefore, it may constitute a benefit to the Team Member on which additional income tax, NICs may be payable. The Team Member understands that the Team Member will be responsible for reporting and paying any income tax due on this additional benefit directly to HMRC under the self-assessment regime and for paying to the Company and/or the Employer (as appropriate) the amount of any NICs due on this additional benefit, which may also be recovered from the Team Member by any of the means referred to in Section 12 of the Grant Agreement. If the Team Member fails to comply with the Team Member's obligations in connection with the income tax as described in this section, the Company may refuse to deliver the Shares underlying the RSUs.

EXHIBIT A
EMPLOYER STATEMENT ON RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS IN
HEWLETT PACKARD ENTERPRISE COMPANY

Pursuant to Section 3(1) of the Act on Stock Options in employment relations, as amended effective January 1, 2019 (the “Stock Option Act”), you are entitled to receive the following information regarding the grant of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) pursuant to the Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company (“HPE”) 2021 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) in a separate written statement.
This statement contains only information mentioned in the Stock Option Act. Additional terms and conditions related to the grant of RSUs are described in the Plan, plan web site, plan prospectus, and the RSU Agreement (the “Agreement”), which have been made available to you. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the same meaning as terms defined in the Plan and/or Agreement.
1.Time of grant of RSU
The grant mentioned herein has been made on the basis of an assessment and decision taken by Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company (“HPE”).
An RSU covering shares of HPE common stock (the “Shares”) was granted on the date specified in your Agreement (the “Grant Date”). The RSU grant represents a promise by HPE to pay you Shares or a cash equivalent upon fulfilment of all the conditions in the Agreement.
2.Terms or conditions for grant of RSUs
The Plan is offered at the discretion of HPE’s Board of Directors. Subject to any limitations under the Plan, the Plan may be wholly or partially amended or otherwise modified, suspended or terminated at any time or from time to time by the Administrator. Under the terms of the Plan, you have no entitlement or claim to receive or claim to receive future grants of RSUs.
3.Acquisition Date
If you are employed by HPE or one of its participating subsidiaries at the time the RSUs vest, Shares or a cash equivalent, at HPE’s discretion, will be paid to you as soon as administratively possible.
Generally, the RSUs will vest 33.33% on the first, second and third anniversary of the Grant Date. You are not required to exercise the RSUs. Upon maturity, HPE will contact you regarding the payment of Shares or a cash equivalent, at HPE’s discretion.
4.Purchase Price
You are not required to pay a purchase price to receive the RSUs nor any Shares subject to this grant of RSUs.
5.Your rights upon termination of employment
Generally, upon termination of employment in accordance with the terms of the Agreement, your treatment will be:
a)all rights to the payment of Shares or a cash equivalent under the Agreement will lapse at the termination of the employee’s employment, except to the extent a severance plan applicable to the employee provides otherwise, however, see items (b) and (c) below;
b)in the event that employment is terminated due to retirement more than three months after the Grant Date (in accordance with the applicable retirement policy), the RSUs shall continue to vest and paid in accordance with the original vesting schedule, provided all terms of the Agreement are met; or
c)in the event that employment is terminated due to the employee’s death or permanent and total disability, the RSUs will vest immediately and be paid according to the terms of the Agreement, provided all terms of the Agreement are met.
You can find a copy of the plan at the plan web site at:
https://hr.hpe.com/2021_HPE_Stock_Incentive_Plan.pdf
6.Financial Aspects of Participating in the Plan
The RSUs allotted under the Agreement are financial instruments connected with the general uncertainty of the stock market. Participation in the Plan does not guarantee a financial gain. Shares of stock are financial instruments and investing in stocks will always have financial risk. The possibility of profit at the time you sell your Shares will not only be dependent on HPE’s financial development and the fluctuation in exchange rates, but also on the general development on the stock market. In addition, after you receive Shares, the Shares could decrease in value, even below the value on the date they were received.
B-24



Receipt and/or vesting of RSUs may be subject to taxation. The employee is liable to pay taxes and duties arising out of the RSUs. To the extent that the employee does not observe his/her obligations in this respect, HPE and the companies within the group are entitled to take any necessary steps to ensure fulfilment of such obligations (e.g., through deductions in salary).
The value of the RSUs and the value of the payment of Shares or a cash equivalent pursuant to the RSUs are not included when calculating holiday allowance, pension contributions or other consideration calculated on the basis of salary.

ARBEJDSGIVERERKLÆRING VEDRØRENDE BETINGEDE AKTIER (RSU’ER) I
HEWLETT PACKARD ENTERPRISE COMPANY

I henhold til § 3, stk. 1, i lov om brug af køberet eller tegningsret m.v. i ansættelsesforhold som ændret med virkning fra 1. januar 2019 (“Aktieoptionsloven”) er du berettiget til i en særskilt skriftlig erklæring at modtage følgende oplysninger vedrørende tildelingen af betingede aktier (restricted stock units) (“RSU’er”) i henhold til Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company’s (“HPE”) “2021 Stock Incentive Plan” (“Ordningen”).
Denne erklæring indeholder kun de oplysninger, der er nævnt i Aktieoptionsloven. De øvrige vilkår og betingelser for tildelingen af RSU’er er beskrevet nærmere i Ordningen, på Ordningens hjemmeside, i prospektet for Ordningen og i RSU-aftalen (“Aftalen”), som du har fået adgang til. Begreber, der står med stort begyndelsesbogstav i denne Arbejdsgivererklæring, men som ikke er defineret heri, har samme betydning som i Ordningen og/eller Aftalen.
1.Tidspunkt for tildeling af RSU’er
Den heri nævnte tildeling er sket på grundlag af en vurdering og en beslutning, som er foretaget af Hewlett-Packard Enterprise Company (“HPE”).
En RSU vedrørende ordinære HPE-aktier (“Aktierne”) er blevet tildelt på den dato, der er anført i din Aftale (“Tildelingstidspunktet”). Den tildelte RSU repræsenterer et løfte fra HPE om at udbetale enten Aktier eller et tilsvarende kontantbeløb til dig, når alle de betingelser, der fremgår af Aftalen, er opfyldt.
2.Vilkår og betingelser for tildeling af RSU’er
Ordningen tilbydes efter HPE’s bestyrelses skøn. Med forbehold for eventuelle begrænsninger i henhold til Ordningen kan Administrator til enhver tid helt eller delvist ændre, modificere, suspendere eller opsige Ordningen. I henhold til vilkårene i Ordningen har du ikke hverken ret til eller krav på at modtage RSU’er i fremtiden.
3.Erhvervelsestidspunkt
Hvis du er ansat i HPE eller i et af HPE’s deltagende datterselskaber på det tidspunkt, hvor RSU’erne modnes, vil du efter HPE’s skøn få udbetalt enten Aktier eller et tilsvarende kontantbeløb, så snart det er praktisk muligt.
Generelt modnes RSU’erne med 33,33% årligt på første, anden og tredje årsdag for Tildelingstidspunktet. Du er ikke forpligtet til at udnytte RSU’erne. I forbindelse med modningen vil HPE kontakte dig vedrørende udbetalingen af enten Aktier eller et tilsvarende kontantbeløb efter HPE’s skøn.
4.Købskurs
Du er ikke forpligtet til at betale en købskurs for modtagelsen af RSU’erne eller de Aktier, der er omfattet af de tildelte RSU’er.
5.Din retsstilling i forbindelse med fratræden
I forbindelse med din fratræden i overensstemmelse med Aftalens bestemmelser vil din Option generelt blive behandlet som følger:
a)Alle rettigheder til udbetaling af enten Aktier eller et tilsvarende kontantbeløb i henhold til Aftalen bortfalder ved ansættelsesforholdets ophør, medmindre andet fremgår af en for medarbejderen gældende fratrædelsesaftale, jf. dog pkt. (b) og (c) nedenfor.
b)Såfremt ansættelsesforholdet ophører som følge af pensionering senere end tre måneder efter Tildelingstidspunktet (i overensstemmelse med den gældende pensionspolitik), vil RSU’erne fortsætte med at modnes og blive udbetalt i overensstemmelse med den oprindelige modningstidsplan, forudsat at alle vilkår i Aftalen er opfyldt.
c)Såfremt ansættelsesforholdet ophører som følge af medarbejderens død eller som følge af permanent eller total invaliditet, vil RSU’erne modnes omgående og blive udbetalt i henhold til bestemmelserne i Aftalen, forudsat at alle Aftalens betingelser er opfyldt.
En kopi af Ordningen kan findes på Ordningens hjemmeside på:
https://hr.hpe.com/2021_HPE_Stock_Incentive_Plan.pdf
6.Økonomiske aspekter af deltagelse i ordningen
De i henhold til Aftalen tildelte RSU’er er finansielle instrumenter, der er forbundet med en vis usikkerhed på aktiemarkedet. Deltagelse i Ordningen giver ikke nogen garanti for en økonomisk gevinst. Aktier er finansielle instrumenter, og investering i aktier vil altid være forbundet med en økonomisk risiko. Muligheden for en gevinst på det tidspunkt, hvor du sælger dine Aktier, afhænger ikke kun af HPE’s økonomiske udvikling og udsvingene i valutakurserne, men også af den generelle udvikling på aktiemarkedet. Derudover vil Aktierne kunne falde i værdi og blive mindre værd end på det tidspunkt, hvor du modtog dem.
B-26



Tildelingen og/eller modningen af RSU’erne vil kunne være skattepligtig. Medarbejderen bærer selv ansvaret for at betale de skatter og afgifter, der måtte opstå i forbindelse med RSU’erne. I det omfang medarbejderen ikke overholder sine forpligtelser i denne henseende, vil HPE og dets koncernselskaber være berettiget til at tage de nødvendige skridt til at sikre, at disse forpligtelser overholdes (f.eks. ved lønfradrag).
Værdien af RSU’erne og af de udbetalte Aktier eller det tilsvarende kontantbeløb indgår ikke i beregningen af feriepenge, pensionsbidrag eller øvrige vederlagsafhængige ydelser.
Eventuelle spørgsmål vedrørende ovennævnte bedes rettet til følgende:

RE: Beneficiary 102 Undertaking
1.I hereby agree that any RSU, RSA or options (the “Options”) granted to me by Hewlett-Packard Enterprise Company (the “Company”) according to and under the terms and conditions of the Israel sub-plan adopted by the Company as of April 14, 2021 (collectively, the “Plan”) are granted to me to qualify under the capital gain tax treatment in accordance and pursuant to Section 102(b)(3) of the Income Tax Ordinance [New Version] unless I am otherwise notified subject to the Company’s absolute discretion to change such election on future grants and subject to the Tax Authorities approval.
2.I declare and confirm that I am familiar with the provisions of the Trust Agreement signed between the Company and the Trustee, as well as the terms of the Plan, the applicable Grant Agreement(s), Section 102, the Rules (as defined in the Plan), and the implications and consequences of the chosen tax arrangement with respect to the Shares, and consent that all the terms and conditions set forth in Section 102 and the Rules, as shall be amended from time to time, shall apply to me and bind me.
3.Without derogating from the generality of the aforesaid, I agree that the Shares and all the rights that I shall be entitled to with respect to the Shares, including, without limitation, dividend, bonus shares and shares issued pursuant to adjustments made by the Company will be deposited in trust with the Trustee and be held in trust in accordance with Section 102, the Rules and the Trust Agreement.

8.I confirm that the Company and/or the Trustee shall not be required to release any Shares or any proceeds deriving from the sale of Shares, to me, until all required tax payments according to Section 102, the Rules and the Trust Agreement, including any other compulsory payments, or applicable law, have been fully assured.
