Dear Amit:

This letter agreement (the “Agreement”) is entered into between Palo Alto Networks, Inc. (“Company” or “we”) and Amit Singh (“Executive” or “you”). We intend that your start date will be November 1, 2018. This Agreement will be effective on your actual start date (the “Effective Date”).

1.Position. Beginning on the Effective Date, you will serve as President of the Company. You will report to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and shall perform the duties and responsibilities customary for such position and such other related duties as are assigned by the CEO. This is a full-time position.

While you render services to the Company, you will not engage in any other employment, consulting or other business activity (whether full-time or part-time) that would create a conflict of interest with the Company. You may engage in civic andnot-for-profit activities as long as such activities do not interfere with the performance of your duties hereunder. By signing this Agreement, you confirm to the Company that you have no contractual commitments or other legal obligations that would prohibit you from performing your duties for the Company.

2.Cash Compensation.

(a)Base Salary. Your salary will be at an annualized rate of $750,000 per year beginning on the Effective Date, payable in accordance with the Company’s standard payroll schedule. Your salary, as well as any other cash amounts payable under this Agreement, will be subject to applicable tax withholdings. Your salary may be adjusted from time to time by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) or the Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Compensation Committee”) in their sole discretion, subject to Section 5.

(b)Annual Incentive Compensation Payment. You will have the opportunity to earn a target annual incentive compensation payment of 100% of your annual base salary for each fiscal year based on the achievement of certain objectives, which will be established by our Board and/or the Compensation Committee. Each incentive compensation payment is subject to your continued employment through and until the date of payment. Your target annual incentive compensation opportunity and the terms and conditions thereof may be adjusted from time to time by our Board or the Compensation Committee in their sole discretion. Your annual incentive for fiscal 2019 will bepro-rated based on the time you are employed during fiscal 2019.

3.Equity.

(a)Time-Based RSUs.The Company will grant you restricted stock units pursuant to the Company’s 2012 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) having an approximate value of $10,000,000 (the “Time-Based RSUs”). The Time-Based RSUs will vest over a4-year period from the grant date subject to you being a Service Provider (as defined in the Company’s 2012 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”)) through each vesting date. 40% of the Time-Based RSUs shall vest on theone-year anniversary of the grant date; 30% shall vest during the second year in four equal quarterly increments; 20% shall vest during the third year in four equal quarterly increments; and 10% shall vest during the fourth year in four equal quarterly increments. We expect the grant date of the Time-Based RSUs to occur the business day following the Effective Date.

The number of shares you receive with respect to the Time-Based RSUs will be determined based on the average closing price of the Company’s stock for the 30 trading days ending on the day before the Effective Date.

(b)Performance-Stock Option. The Company will grant you a stock option pursuant to the Plan to purchase a number of shares of the Company’s common stock that results in an approximate aggregate grant date fair value for financial accounting purposes of $24,500,000 on the terms set forth below (the “Performance Option”). The Performance Option will have a per share exercise price equal to the fair market value of a share of Company common stock on the grant date. We expect the grant date of the Performance Option to occur the business day following the Effective Date. The Performance Option will have a maximum term equal to 7 years, with the 1/4 of the Performance Option described under (iv) having a maximum term of 7.5 years.

Shares subject to the Performance Option become eligible to vest upon achievement of the following stock price targets (measured based on the average closing price for a 30 consecutive trading day period (“Stock Price Achievement”) during the period specified below following the grant date of the Performance Option (the “Performance Window”)):

(i) 1/4 of the shares subject to the Performance Option become eligible to vest (“Eligible Option Shares”) upon Stock Price Achievement during a4-year Performance Window that equals or exceeds $297.75 per share.

3000 TANNERY WAY | SANTA CLARA, CA 95054 | MAIN: 408.753.4000 | PALOALTONETWORKS.COM

(ii) 1/4 of the shares subject to the Performance Option become Eligible Option Shares upon Stock Price Achievement during a5-year Performance Window that equals or exceeds $397.00 per share.

(iii) 1/4 of the shares subject to the Performance Option become Eligible Option Shares upon Stock Price Achievement during a6-year Performance Window that equals or exceeds $496.25 per share.

(iv) 1/4 of the shares subject to the Performance Option become Eligible Option Shares upon Stock Price Achievement during a7-year Performance Window that equals or exceeds $595.50 per share.

To the extent that the any of the Stock Price Achievements are met, the corresponding Eligible Option Shares will vest as to 1/4 of such shares on each annual anniversary of the Performance Option grant date, subject to you continuing to be a Service Provider through each vesting date. If a Stock Price Achievement milestone has been achieved once during the applicable Performance Window, then achievement related to such milestone shall be deemed to occur and no subsequent stock price drop will have any effect on a previous achievement. Any shares subject to the Performance Option that do not become Eligible Option Shares prior to the expiration of the applicable Performance Window shall forfeit. If a Change in Control occurs during a Performance Window, the per share price payable to Company stockholders at the closing shall be the final Stock Price Achievement, and any shares subject to the Performance Option that do not become Eligible Option Shares as of the Change in Control will terminate.

The terms of the Time-Based RSUs, the Investment RSUs and the Performance Option shall each be set forth in a form of award agreement under the Plan.

4.At Will Employment. While we look forward to a productive relationship, your employment with the Company, however, is for an unspecified period of time and this Agreement creates anat-will employment relationship that may be terminated (subject to the terms of this Agreement) by you or the Company at any time for any reason and with or without cause or prior notice. Upon termination of your employment for any reason, you shall be entitled to receive any compensation earned and reimbursements due through the effective date of termination.

(ii) For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean: (i) a material reduction in your authority, status, obligations or responsibilities, provided that following a Change in Control a change in title alone (not accompanied by a change in authority, status, obligations or responsibilities) shall not constitute a material reduction; (ii) a reduction of your total annual compensation of more than 10% unless such reduction is no greater (in percentage terms) than compensation reductions imposed on substantially all of the Company’s employees pursuant to a directive of the Board; (iii) any failure by the Company to pay your base salary; (iv) the relocation of the principal place of the Company’s business to a location that is more than 35 miles further from your home than before the relocation; or (v) the Company’s material breach of this Agreement.

6.Section 280G. If any payments and other benefits provided for in this Agreement or otherwise constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and, but for this Section 6, would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, then payments and other benefits will be payable to you either in full or in such lesser amounts as would result, after taking into account the applicable federal, state and local income taxes and the excise tax imposed by Section 4999, on your receipt on anafter-tax basis of the greatest amount of payments and other benefits, by reducing payments in the following order: (i) cancellation of accelerated vesting of stock options that areout-of-the-money; (ii) reduction in cash payments; (iii) cancellation of accelerated vesting of all equity awards that are notout-of-the-money stock options; and (iv) other employee benefits. In the event that acceleration of vesting of equity award compensation is to be reduced, such acceleration of vesting shall be cancelled in the reverse order of the date of grant.

The Company will bear all costs the firm may reasonably incur in connection with any calculations contemplated by these paragraphs relating to parachute payments.

7.Section 409A. For purposes of this Agreement, a termination of employment will be determined consistent with the rules relating to a “separation from service” as defined in Section 409A of the Code and the regulations thereunder (“Section 409A”). Notwithstanding anything else provided herein, to the extent any payments provided under this Agreement in connection with your termination of employment constitute deferred compensation subject to Section 409A (“Deferred Payments”), and you are deemed at the time of such termination of employment to be a “specified employee” under Section 409A, then such payment shall not be made or commence until the earlier of (i) the expiration of the6-month period measured from your separation from service from the Company or (ii) the date of your death following such a separation from service; provided, however, that such deferral shall only be effected to the extent required to avoid adverse tax treatment to you including, without limitation, the additional tax for which you would otherwise be liable under Section 409A(a)(1)(B) in the absence of such a deferral. The first payment thereof will include acatch-up payment covering the amount that would have otherwise been paid during the period between your termination of employment and the first payment date but for the application of this provision, and the balance of the installments (if any) will be payable in accordance with their original schedule. To the extent that any provision of this Agreement is ambiguous as to its compliance with Section 409A, the provision will be read in such a manner so that all payments hereunder comply with Section 409A. To the extent any payment under this Agreement may be classified as a “short-term deferral” within the meaning of Section 409A, such payment shall be deemed a short-term deferral, even if it may also qualify for an exemption from Section 409A under another provision of Section 409A. Payments pursuant to this Agreement are intended to constitute separate payments for purposes ofSection 1.409A-2(b)(2) of the Treasury Regulations.

Such arbitration shall be conducted through JAMS in the State of California, Santa Clara County, before a single neutral arbitrator, in accordance with the JAMS’ then-current rules for the resolution of employment disputes. The arbitrator shall issue a written decision that contains the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision is based. You shall bear only those costs of arbitration you would otherwise bear had you brought a covered claim in court. Judgment upon the determination or award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. This agreement to arbitrate does not restrict your right to file administrative claims you may bring before any government agency where, as a matter of law, the parties may not restrict the employee’s ability to file such claims (including, but not limited to, the National Labor Relations Board, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and the Department of Labor). However, the parties agree that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, arbitration shall be the exclusive remedy for the subject matter of such administrative claims.

Exhibit A:     Employee Invention Assignment and Confidentiality Agreement

3000 TANNERY WAY | SANTA CLARA, CA 95054 | MAIN: 408.753.4000 | PALOALTONETWORKS.COM

EMPLOYEE INVENTION ASSIGNMENT AND

CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENT

In consideration of, and as a condition of my employment with Palo Alto Networks, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), I hereby represent to, and agree with the Company as follows:

1.Purpose of Agreement.I understand that the Company is engaged in a continuous program of research, development, production and marketing in connection with its business and that it is critical for the Company to preserve and protect its “Proprietary Information” (as defined in Section 7 below), its rights in “Inventions” (as defined in Section 2 below) and in all related intellectual property rights. Accordingly, I am entering into this Employee Invention Assignment and Confidentiality Agreement (this “Agreement”) as a condition of my employment with the Company, whether or not I am expected to create inventions of value for the Company.

2.Disclosure of Inventions.I will promptly disclose in confidence to the Company all inventions, improvements, designs, original works of authorship, formulas, processes, compositions of matter, computer software programs, databases, mask works and trade secrets that I make or conceive or first reduce to practice or create, either alone or jointly with others, during the period of my employment, whether or not in the course of my employment, and whether or not patentable, copyrightable or protectable as trade secrets (the “Inventions”).

3.Work for Hire; Assignment of Inventions.I acknowledge and agree that any copyrightable works prepared by me within the scope of my employment are “works for hire” under the Copyright Act and that the Company will be considered the author and owner of such copyrightable works. I agree that all Inventions that (i) are developed using equipment, supplies, facilities or trade secrets of the Company, (ii) result from work performed by me for the Company, or (iii) relate to the Company’s business or current or anticipated research and development (the “Assigned Inventions”), will be the sole and exclusive property of the Company and are hereby irrevocably assigned by me to the Company. Attached hereto asExhibit Ais a list describing all inventions, original works of authorship, developments and trade secrets which were made by me prior to the date of this Agreement, which belong to me and which are not assigned to the Company(“Prior Inventions”). I acknowledge and agree that if I use any of my Prior Inventions in the scope of my employment, or include them in any product or service of the Company, I hereby grant to the Company a perpetual, irrevocable, nonexclusive, world-wide, royalty-free license to use, disclose, make, sell, copy, distribute, modify and create works based on, perform or display such Prior Inventions and to sublicense third parties with the same rights. If no such list of Prior Inventions orExhibit Ais completed and/or attached hereto, I represent that I have no Prior Inventions at the time of signing this Agreement.

4.Labor Code Section 2870 Notice.I have been notified and understand that the provisions of Sections 3 and 5 of this Agreement do not apply to any Assigned Invention that qualifies fully under the provisions of Section 2870 of the California Labor Code, which states as follows:

ANY PROVISION IN AN EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT WHICH PROVIDES THAT AN EMPLOYEE SHALL ASSIGN, OR OFFER TO ASSIGN, ANY OF HIS OR HER RIGHTS IN AN INVENTION TO HIS OR HER EMPLOYER SHALL NOT APPLY TO AN INVENTION THAT THE EMPLOYEE DEVELOPED ENTIRELY ON HIS OR HER OWN TIME WITHOUT USING THE EMPLOYER’S EQUIPMENT, SUPPLIES, FACILITIES, OR TRADE SECRET INFORMATION EXCEPT FOR THOSE INVENTIONS THAT EITHER: (1) RELATE AT THE TIME OF CONCEPTION OR REDUCTION TO PRACTICE OF THE INVENTION TO THE EMPLOYER’S BUSINESS, OR ACTUAL OR DEMONSTRABLY ANTICIPATED RESEARCH OR DEVELOPMENT OF THE EMPLOYER; OR (2) RESULT FROM ANY WORK PERFORMED BY THE EMPLOYEE FOR THE EMPLOYER. TO THE EXTENT A PROVISION IN AN EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT PURPORTS TO REQUIRE AN EMPLOYEE TO ASSIGN AN INVENTION OTHERWISE EXCLUDED FROM BEING REQUIRED TO BE ASSIGNED UNDER CALIFORNIA LABOR CODE SECTION 2870(a), THE PROVISION IS AGAINST THE PUBLIC POLICY OF THIS STATE AND IS UNENFORCEABLE.

Page 1 of 5

5.Assignment of Other Rights.In addition to the foregoing assignment of Assigned Inventions to the Company, I hereby irrevocably transfer and assign to the Company: (i) all worldwide patents, patent applications, copyrights, mask works, trade secrets and other intellectual property rights, including but not limited to rights in databases, in any Assigned Inventions, along with any registrations of or applications to register such rights; and (ii) any and all “Moral Rights” (as defined below) that I may have in or with respect to any Assigned Inventions. I also hereby forever waive and agree never to assert any and all Moral Rights I may have in or with respect to any Assigned Inventions, even after termination of my work on behalf of the Company.“Moral Rights”mean any rights to claim authorship of or credit on an Assigned Inventions, to object to or prevent the modification or destruction of any Assigned Inventions or Prior Inventions licensed to Company under Section 3, or to withdraw from circulation or control the publication or distribution of any Assigned Inventions or Prior Inventions licensed to Company under Section 3, and any similar right, existing under judicial or statutory law of any country or subdivision thereof in the world, or under any treaty, regardless of whether or not such right is denominated or generally referred to as a “moral right.”

6.Assistance.I agree to assist the Company in every proper way to obtain for the Company and enforce patents, copyrights, mask work rights, trade secret rights and other legal protections for the Company’s Assigned Inventions in any and all countries. I will execute any documents that the Company may reasonably request for use in obtaining or enforcing such patents, copyrights, mask work rights, trade secrets and other legal protections. My obligations under this paragraph will continue beyond the termination of my employment with the Company, provided that the Company will compensate me at a reasonable rate after such termination for time or expenses actually spent by me at the Company’s request on such assistance. I appoint the Secretary of the Company as myattorney-in- fact to execute documents on my behalf for this purpose.

7.Proprietary Information.I understand that my employment by the Company creates a relationship of confidence and trust with respect to any information of a confidential or secret nature that may be disclosed to me by the Company or a third party that relates to the business of the Company or to the business of any parent, subsidiary, affiliate, customer or supplier of the Company or any other party with whom the Company agrees to hold information of such party in confidence (the “Proprietary Information”). Such Proprietary Information includes, but is not limited to, Assigned Inventions, marketing plans, product plans, business strategies, financial information, forecasts, personnel information, customer lists and data, and domain names.

8.Confidentiality.At all times, both during my employment and after its termination, I will keep and hold all such Proprietary Information in strict confidence and trust. I will not use or disclose any Proprietary Information without the prior written consent of the Company, except as may be necessary to perform my duties as an employee of the Company for the benefit of the Company. Upon termination of my employment with the Company, I will promptly deliver to the Company all documents and materials of any nature pertaining to my work with the Company and, upon Company request, will execute a document confirming my agreement to honor my responsibilities contained in this Agreement. I will not take with me or retain any documents or materials or copies thereof containing any Proprietary Information.

9.No Breach of Prior Agreement.I represent that my performance of all the terms of this Agreement and my duties as an employee of the Company will not breach any invention assignment, proprietary information, confidentiality or similar agreement with any former employer or other party. I represent that I will not bring with me to the Company or use in the performance of my duties for the Company any documents or materials or intangibles of a former employer or third party that are not generally available to the public or have not been legally transferred to the Company.

Page 2 of 5

10.Efforts; Duty Not to Compete.I understand that my employment with the Company requires my undivided attention and effort during normal business hours. While I am employed by the Company, I will not provide services to, or assist in any manner, any business or third party that competes with the current or planned business of the Company, nor will I, without the prior written approval of (i) an officer of the Company if I am not an executive officer of the Company, or (ii) the Board of Directors of the Company if I am an executive officer of the Company, engage in any other professional employment or consulting.

11.Notification.I hereby authorize the Company to notify third parties, including, without limitation, customers and actual or potential employers, of the terms of this Agreement and my responsibilities hereunder.

12.Non-Solicitation of Employees/Consultants.During my employment with the Company and for a period of one (1) year thereafter, I will not directly or indirectly solicit away employees or consultants of the Company for my own benefit or for the benefit of any other person or entity.

13.Non-Solicitation of Suppliers/Customers.During my employment with the Company and after termination of my employment, I will not directly or indirectly solicit or take away suppliers or customers of the Company if the identity of the supplier or customer or information about the supplier or customer relationship is a trade secret or is otherwise deemed confidential information within the meaning of California law.

14.Injunctive Relief.I understand that in the event of a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement by me the Company may suffer irreparable harm and will therefore be entitled to injunctive relief to enforce this Agreement.

15.Governing Law; Severability.This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without giving effect to its laws pertaining to conflict of laws. If any provision of this Agreement is determined by any court or arbitrator of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such provision will be enforced to the maximum extent possible given the intent of the parties hereto. If such clause or provision cannot be so enforced, such provision shall be stricken from this Agreement and the remainder of this Agreement shall be enforced as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable clause or provision had (to the extent not enforceable) never been contained in this Agreement.
