FABRINET

CHANGE IN CONTROL AND SEVERANCE AGREEMENT

This Change in Control and Severance Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made by and between Fabrinet, an exempted company incorporated with limited liability under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “Company”), and Seamus Grady (“Executive”), effective as ofFebruary 26, 2019 (the “Effective Date”).

This Agreement provides certain protections to Executive in connection with an involuntary termination of Executive’s employment with the Company under the circumstances described in this Agreement, including in connection with a change in control of the Company. Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in Section 8 below.

The Company and Executive agree as follows:

1. Term of Agreement. This Agreement will have an initial term of three (3) years commencing on the Effective Date (the “Initial Term”). On the third (3^rd) anniversary of the Effective Date, this Agreement will renew automatically for additional, one (1) year terms (each, an “Additional Term”) unless either party provides the other party with written notice of nonrenewal at least ninety (90) days prior to the date of automatic renewal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Change in Control occurs (a) when there are fewer than twelve (12) months remaining during the Initial Term or (b) during an Additional Term, then the term of this Agreement will extend automatically through the date that is twelve (12) months following the date of the Change in Control. If Executive becomes entitled to the benefits under Section 3 of this Agreement, then the Agreement will not terminate until all of the obligations of the parties hereto with respect to this Agreement have been satisfied.

2. At-Will Employment. The Company and Executive acknowledge that Executive’s employment is and will continue to beat-will, as defined under applicable law.

3. Severance Benefits.

(a) Qualifying Termination Outside of the Change in Control Period. In the event of a Qualifying Termination that occurs other than during the Change in Control Period, Executive will receive the following payments and benefits from the Company, subject to the requirements of this Agreement:

(i) Salary Severance. A single, lump sum, cash payment equal to one hundred percent (100%) of Executive’s annual base salary in effect as of the date of the Qualifying Termination.

(ii) Earned but Unpaid Bonus. A single, lump sum, cash payment equal to any earned but unpaid bonus as of the date of the Qualifying Termination.

(iii) COBRA Severance. A single, lump sum, taxable, cash payment equal to two times the product of (A) twelve (12) months, multiplied by (B) the amount of monthly premium that Executive otherwise would be required to pay for Executive and any of Executive’s

eligible dependents (if applicable) for the first month of Company group health care coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”), without regard to whether Executive elects continued health coverage under COBRA for Executive and any of Executive’s eligible dependents (the “COBRA Severance”).

(iv) Expat Benefits. To the extent Executive is receiving tax equalization benefits under the Company’s expatriate policy on the date of the Qualifying Termination, continued tax equalization benefits in accordance with the Company’s expatriate policy as in effect from time to time for (A) the calendar year in which the Qualifying Termination occurs, and (B) the calendar year immediately following the calendar year in which the Qualifying Termination occurs (the “Expat Severance”).

(b) Qualifying Termination During the Change in Control Period. In the event of a Qualifying Termination that occurs during the Change in Control Period, Executive will be eligible to receive the following payments and benefits from the Company, subject to the requirements of this Agreement:

(i) Salary Severance. A single, lump sum, cash payment equal to two hundred percent (200%) of Executive’s annual base salary in effect as of the date of the Qualifying Termination or, if greater, Executive’s annual base salary in effect as of immediately prior to the Change in Control.

(ii) Earned but Unpaid Bonus. A single, lump sum, cash payment equal to any earned but unpaid bonus as of the date of the Qualifying Termination.

(iii) Bonus Severance. A single, lump sum, cash payment equal to two hundred percent (200%) of Executive’s target annual bonus opportunity in effect as of the date of the Qualifying Termination or, if greater, Executive’s target annual bonus opportunity in effect as of immediately prior to the Change in Control.

(iv) COBRA Severance. COBRA Severance payable as a single, lump sum, taxable, cash payment.

(v) Vesting Acceleration of Time-based Equity Awards. Vesting acceleration of one hundred percent (100%) of any Company equity awards covering Company ordinary shares held by Executive that are subject to continued service-based vesting criteria, but not subject to the achievement of any performance-based or other similar vesting criteria (“Time-based Awards”) and that are outstanding and unvested as of the date of the Qualifying Termination. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event of Executive’s Qualifying Termination that occurs prior to a Change in Control, any then outstanding and unvested portion of Executive’sTime-based Awards will remain outstanding (and unvested) until the earlier of (x) three (3) months following the Qualifying Termination, or (y) a Change in Control that occurs within three (3) months following the Qualifying Termination, solely so that any benefits due on a Qualifying Termination can be provided if the Qualifying Termination occurs during the Change in Control Period (provided that in no event will Executive’s stock options or similar equity awards remain outstanding beyond the equity award’s maximum term to expiration). If no Change in Control occurs within three (3) months following a Qualifying Termination, any unvested portion of Executive’sTime-based Awards automatically and permanently will be forfeited on the date three (3) months following the date of the Qualifying Termination without having vested.

(vi) Expat Benefits. The Expat Severance, payable in accordance with the Company’s expatriate policy as in effect from time to time.

(c) Termination Other Than a Qualifying Termination. If the termination of Executive’s employment does not constitute a Qualifying Termination, then Executive will not be entitled to receive any severance or other benefits except for those, if any, as may then be established under the Company’s then existing severance and benefits plans or programs.

(d) Non-Duplication of Payment or Benefits. For purposes of clarity, in the event of a Qualifying Termination that occurs during the period within three (3) months prior to a Change in Control, any severance payments and benefits to be provided to Executive under Section 3(b) will be reduced by any amounts that already were provided to Executive under Section 3(a). Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if Executive is entitled to any cash severance, continued health coverage benefits, vesting acceleration of any equity awards, tax equalization benefits or expatriate benefits, by operation of applicable law or under a plan, policy, contract, or arrangement sponsored by or to which the Company is a party other than this Agreement (“Other Benefits”), then the corresponding severance payments and benefits under this Agreement will be reduced by the amount of Other Benefits paid or provided to Executive.

(e) Death of Executive. In the event of Executive’s death before all payments or benefits Executive is entitled to receive under this Agreement have been provided, the unpaid amounts will be provided to Executive’s designated beneficiary, if living, or otherwise to Executive’s personal representative in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

4. Treatment of PSU Awards in Change in Control. In the event of a Change in Control, each of Executive’s then outstanding and unvested PSU Awards will be treated as set forth in this Section 4.

(a) Final Measurement of PSU Awards. To the extent that the performance period over which any performance-based vesting criteria under the PSU Award (such period, the “Performance Period,” and such criteria, the “Performance Goals”) has not yet been completed as of the date of the Change in Control, the PSU Award will be treated as follows. The Performance Period with respect to any Performance Goal relating to the Company’s revenue will be shortened so that the last day of the Performance Period will occur on a date no earlier than the date ten (10) business days prior to the Change in Control and no later than the day immediately prior to the Change in Control (the “Prorated Revenue Period”). The Performance Period with respect to any Performance Goal relating to the Company’s gross margin (the “GM Goal”) will be adjusted to be the last, four (4), consecutive, fiscal quarters of the Company that were completed prior to the Change in Control (the “Adjusted GM Period”). Any Performance Goal relating to the achievement of the Company’s revenue will be prorated by multiplying the applicable Performance Goal by a fraction, the numerator of which will be the total number of days in the shortened Performance Period, and the denominator of which will be the total number of days in the original Performance Period (the “Prorated Revenue Goal”). Prior to the Change in Control,

the Board or Committee will determine and certify in writing the extent of the Company’s achievement of the Prorated Revenue Goal during the Prorated Revenue Period and the extent of the Company’s achievement of the GM Goal during the Adjusted GM Period. Any portion of the PSU Award for which the applicable Performance Goal is deemed achieved pursuant to this subsection (a) will be scheduled to vest subject to Executive’s continued service with the Company through the last date of the original Performance Period set forth in the applicable PSU Award agreement. For purposes of clarity, if the Performance Period under any PSU Award ends prior to the Change in Control, the Board or Committee will determine and certify in writing the extent of the Company’s achievement of applicable performance under the PSU Award prior to the Change in Control.

(b) Treatment of PSU Awards Upon Qualifying Termination. In the event of Executive’s Qualifying Termination that occurs prior to a Change in Control, any then outstanding and unvested portion of Executive’s PSU Awards will remain outstanding (and unvested) until the earlier of (x) three (3) months following the Qualifying Termination, or (y) a Change in Control that occurs within three (3) months following the Qualifying Termination, solely so that any benefits due on a Qualifying Termination can be provided if the Qualifying Termination occurs during the Change in Control Period. If no Change in Control occurs within three (3) months following a Qualifying Termination, any unvested portion of Executive’s PSU Awards automatically and permanently will be forfeited on the date three (3) months following the date of the Qualifying Termination without having vested. For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of any Qualifying Termination that occurs during the Change in Control Period, any portion of a PSU Award, that (i) remains outstanding, and (ii) is subject to vesting based only on any continued service and otherwise has become eligible to vest based on the applicable Performance Goals being deemed achieved or otherwise no longer applicable, pursuant to the terms of the applicable PSU Documents, as modified by this Agreement, in each case as of immediately prior to the effective time of the Change in Control, will be considered aTime-based Award and treated in accordance with Section 3 above.

5. Accrued Compensation. On any termination of Executive’s employment with the Company, Executive will be entitled to receive all accrued but unpaid vacation, expense reimbursements, wages, and other benefits due to Executive under any Company-provided plans, policies, and arrangements.

6. Conditions to Receipt of Severance.

(a) Separation Agreement and Release of Claims. Executive’s receipt of any severance payments or benefits upon a Qualifying Termination under Section 3 is subject to Executive signing and not revoking a separation agreement and release of claims with the Company (the “Release”), which the Company will provide to Executive no later than five (5) business days following the date of the Qualifying Termination, and which must become effective and irrevocable no later than the sixtieth (60^th) day following the date of the Qualifying Termination (the “Release Deadline”). If the Release does not become effective and irrevocable by the Release Deadline, Executive will forfeit any right to severance payments or benefits under Section 3.

(b) Payment Timing. Any lump sum cash severance payments under Section 3 relating to salary severance, bonus severance, and COBRA Severance will be provided to Executive on the first regularly scheduled payroll date of the Company following the date the Release becomes effective and irrevocable, subject to any delay required by Section 6(c) below. Any restricted stock units, performance shares, performance units, and/or similar full value awards that accelerate vesting under Section 3(b)(v) will be settled, subject to any delay required by Section 6(c) below (or the terms of the award agreement or other Company plan, policy, or arrangement governing the settlement timing of the award to the extent such terms specifically require any such delay in order to comply with the requirements of Section 409A, as applicable), (x) on a date no later than ten (10) days following the date the Release becomes effective and irrevocable, or (y) if later, in the event of a Qualifying Termination that occurs prior to a Change in Control, on a date no later than the Change in Control. Any Expat Severance will be paid as soon as practicable following Executive’s taxable year in which the compensation covered by the Expat Severance was paid, and in no event later than the end of Executive’s taxable year following Executive’s taxable year in which Executive remits the taxes relating to such compensation.

(c) Section 409A. The Company intends that all payments and benefits provided under this Agreement or otherwise are exempt from, or comply with, the requirements of Section 409A so that none of the payments or benefits will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities and ambiguous terms in this Agreement will be interpreted in accordance with this intent. No payments or benefits to be provided to Executive, if any, under this Agreement or otherwise, when considered together with any other severance payments or separation benefits that are considered deferred compensation under Section 409A (together, the “Deferred Payments”) will be paid or otherwise provided until Executive has a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A. To the extent required to be exempt from or comply with Section 409A, references to the termination of Executive’s employment or similar phrases used in this Agreement will mean Executive’s “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A.

(i) Any payments or benefits paid or provided under this Agreement that satisfy the requirements of the “short-term deferral” rule under Treasury RegulationsSection 1.409A-1(b)(4), or that qualify as payments made as a result of an involuntary separation from service under Treasury RegulationsSection 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) that is within the limit set forth thereunder, will not constitute Deferred Payments for purposes of this Section 6(c).

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A at the time of Executive’s separation from service (other than due to death), then any payments or benefits that constitute Deferred Payments payable within the first six (6) months after Executive’s separation from service instead will be payable on the date six (6) months and one (1) day after Executive’s separation from service; provided that in the event of Executive’s death within such six (6) month period, any payments delayed by this clause (ii) will be paid to Executive in a lump sum as soon as administratively practicable after the date of Executive’s death.

(iii) The Company reserves the right to amend this Agreement as it considers necessary or advisable, in its sole discretion and without the consent of Executive or any other individual, to comply with any provision required to avoid the imposition of the additional tax imposed under Section 409A or to otherwise avoid income recognition under Section 409A prior to the actual payment of any benefits or imposition of any additional tax. Each payment, installment, and benefit payable under this Agreement is intended to constitute a separate payment for purposes of Treasury RegulationSection 1.409A-2(b)(2). In no event will Executive have any discretion to choose Executive’s taxable year in which any payments or benefits are provided under this Agreement. In no event will the Company reimburse, indemnify, or hold harmless Executive for any taxes, penalties and interest that may be imposed, or other costs that may be incurred, as a result of Section 409A.

7. Limitation on Payments.

(a) Reduction of Severance Benefits.If any payment or benefit that Executive would receive from the Company or any other party whether in connection with the provisions in this Agreement or otherwise (the “Payments”) would (i) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and (ii) but for this sentence, be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then the Payments will be either delivered in full, or delivered as to such lesser extent that would result in no portion of the Payments being subject to the Excise Tax, whichever of the foregoing amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state and local income taxes and the Excise Tax, results in Executive’s receipt, on anafter-tax basis, of the greatest amount of Payments, notwithstanding that all or some of the Payments may be subject to the Excise Tax. If a reduction in Payments is made in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, the reduction will occur, with respect to the Payments considered parachute payments within the meaning of Code Section 280G, in the following order: (A) reduction of cash payments in reverse chronological order (that is, the cash payment owed on the latest date following the occurrence of the event triggering the Excise Tax will be the first cash payment to be reduced); (B) cancellation of equity awards that were granted “contingent on a change in ownership or control” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code in the reverse order of date of grant of the awards (that is, the most recently granted equity awards will be cancelled first); (C) reduction of the accelerated vesting of equity awards in the reverse order of date of grant of the awards (that is, the vesting of the most recently granted equity awards will be cancelled first); and (D) reduction of employee benefits in reverse chronological order (that is, the benefit owed on the latest date following the occurrence of the event triggering the Excise Tax will be the first benefit to be reduced). In no event will Executive have any discretion with respect to the ordering of Payment reductions. Executive will be solely responsible for the payment of all personal tax liability that is incurred as a result of the payments and benefits received under this Agreement, and Executive will not be reimbursed, indemnified, or held harmless by the Company for any of those payments of personal tax liability.

(b) Determination of Excise Tax Liability.Unless the Company and Executive otherwise agree in writing, any determinations required under this Section 7 will be made in writing by a nationally recognized accounting or valuation firm (the “Firm”) selected by the Company, whose determinations will be conclusive and binding upon Executive and the Company for all purposes. For purposes of making the calculations required by this Section 7, the Firm may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the

Code. The Company and Executive will furnish to the Firm such information and documents as the Firm reasonably may request in order to make determinations under this Section 7. The Company will bear the costs and make all payments for the Firm’s services in connection with any calculations contemplated by this Section 7.The Company will have no liability to Executive for the determinations of the Firm.
