RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT GRANT NOTICE AND AWARD AGREEMENT

(2006 EMPLOYEE EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN)

Synopsys, Inc. (the “Company”), pursuant to Section 7(b) of the Company’s 2006 Employee Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), hereby awards to you as Participant a Restricted Stock Unit Award covering the number of restricted stock units (the “Restricted Stock Units”) set forth below (the “Award”). This Award is subject to all of the terms and conditions as set forth in this Restricted Stock Unit Grant Notice and Award Agreement (including any special terms and conditions for your country in the Appendix hereto, the “Agreement”) and the Plan, which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety. Defined terms not explicitly defined in this Agreement but defined in the Plan shall have the same definitions as in the Plan.

Vesting Schedule: The Restricted Stock Units shall vest in accordance with the following vesting schedule; provided, however, that the Participant’s Continuous Service has not terminated prior to each such vesting date.

Delivery Schedule: The Company shall deliver one share of Common Stock for each Restricted Stock Unit that vests on an applicable vesting date, subject to the provisions of Section 3 below and subject to satisfaction of Tax-Related Items as described in Section 10 below. Each installment of Restricted Stock Units that vests hereunder is intended to constitute a “separate payment” for purposes of U.S. Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2).

Compensation Recovery: The Restricted Stock Units granted herein are subject to the Compensation Recovery Policy applicable to corporate staff, adopted by the Company in December 2008, as amended from time to time (the “Compensation Recovery Policy”) and any required compensation recovery provisions under applicable laws or regulations.

Additional Terms/Acknowledgements: Participant acknowledges receipt of, and understands and agrees to, this Agreement, the Plan, the related Plan prospectus, the Company’s ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Policy, the Company’s Section 16 Officer and Director Trading Procedures (if applicable) and the Compensation Recovery Policy (if applicable). Participant further acknowledges that as of the Date of Grant, the Agreement and the Plan set forth the entire understanding between the Participant and the Company regarding the award of the Restricted Stock Units and the underlying Common Stock and supersede all prior oral and written agreements on that subject with the exception of (i) Awards previously granted and delivered to Participant under the Plan, and (ii) if applicable to you, (A) the terms of any Company change of control severance plan or provisions that are in effect and applicable at the time of a qualifying termination or event and (B) the Compensation Recovery Policy (if applicable).

The terms and conditions of your Award, in addition to those set forth on the first page of this Agreement, are as follows.

1. NUMBER OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS AND SHARES OF COMMON STOCK.

(a) The number of Restricted Stock Units subject to your Award and the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable with respect to such Restricted Stock Units may be adjusted from time to time for Capitalization Adjustments as described in Section 9(a) of the Plan. You shall receive no benefit or adjustment to your Award with respect to any cash dividend or other distribution that does not result in a Capitalization Adjustment pursuant to Section 9(a) of the Plan; provided, however, that this sentence shall not apply with respect to any shares of Common Stock that are delivered to you in connection with your Award after such shares have been delivered to you.

1

(b) Any additional Restricted Stock Units, shares of Common Stock, cash or other property that becomes subject to the Award pursuant to this Section 1 shall be subject, in a manner determined by the Board, to the same forfeiture restrictions, restrictions on transferability, and time and manner of delivery as applicable to the other Restricted Stock Units and Common Stock covered by your Award.

(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 1, no fractional Restricted Stock Units or rights for fractional shares of Common Stock shall be created pursuant to this Section 1. The Board shall, in its discretion, determine an equivalent benefit for any fractional Restricted Stock Units or fractional shares that might be created by the adjustments referred to in this Section 1.

2. VESTING.

Subject to the limitations contained in this Agreement and the Plan, the Restricted Stock Units shall vest as provided in the vesting schedule set forth above, and subject to your Continuous Service as determined in accordance with Section 11(h) below. Any Restricted Stock Units that have not yet vested shall be forfeited upon the termination of your Continuous Service.

3. DISTRIBUTION OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK.

(a) Subject to the provisions of this Agreement and the Plan, in the event one or more Restricted Stock Units vests, the Company shall deliver to you one (1) share of Common Stock for each Restricted Stock Unit that vests, subject to satisfaction of Tax-Related Items as described in Section 10 below. Except as set forth below, the delivery to you of the appropriate number of shares of Common Stock shall be made on the applicable vesting date or as soon as practicably possible thereafter. The issuance date determined by this paragraph is referred to as the “Issuance Date.” If the Issuance Date falls on a date that is not a business day, delivery shall instead occur on the next following business day. The form of such delivery (e.g., a stock certificate or electronic entry evidencing such shares) shall be determined by the Company.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (i) the Issuance Date does not occur (1) during an “open window period” applicable to you, as determined by the Company in accordance with the Company’s ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Policy, or (2) on a date when you are otherwise permitted to sell shares of Common Stock on an established stock exchange or stock market, and (ii) the Company elects, prior to the Issuance Date, (1) not to satisfy the tax withholding obligations described in Section 10 by withholding shares of Common Stock from the shares otherwise due, on the Issuance Date, to you under this Agreement, and (2) not to permit or require you to enter into an immediate sale commitment with a broker-dealer pursuant to Section 10 of this Agreement (including but not limited to a commitment under a previously established Company-approved 10b5-1 trading plan), then such shares shall not be delivered on such Issuance Date and shall instead be delivered on the first business day of the next occurring open window period applicable to you or the next business day when you are not prohibited from selling shares of Common Stock in the open public market, but in no event later than the date that is the 15th day of the third calendar month of the year following the year in which the shares of Common Stock under this Agreement are no longer subject to a “substantial risk of forfeiture” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(d).

4. PAYMENT BY YOU. Subject to Section 10 below, except as otherwise provided herein or under applicable law, you will not be required to make any payment to the Company with respect to your receipt of the Award, vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, or the delivery of the shares of Common Stock underlying the Restricted Stock Units.

2

5. SECURITIES LAW COMPLIANCE. You may not be issued any Common Stock under your Award unless the shares of Common Stock are either (i) then registered under the Securities Act, or (ii) the Company has determined that such issuance would be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Your Award must also comply with other applicable laws and regulations governing the Award, and you shall not receive such Common Stock if the Company determines that such receipt would not be in material compliance with such laws and regulations.

6. RESTRICTIVE LEGENDS. The Common Stock issued under your Award shall be endorsed with appropriate legends, if any, determined by the Company.

7. TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS. Prior to the time that shares of Common Stock are delivered to you, you may not transfer, pledge, sell or otherwise dispose of the shares in respect of your Award. For example, you may not use shares that may be issued in respect of your Restricted Stock Units as security for a loan, nor may you transfer, pledge, sell or otherwise dispose of such shares. This restriction on transfer will lapse upon delivery to you of shares in respect of your vested Restricted Stock Units. Your Award is not transferable, except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. In the event of divorce, you are encouraged to discuss the proposed treatment of the Restricted Stock Units with the Company prior to finalizing any domestic relations order if you reside in the United States.

8. AWARD NOT A SERVICE CONTRACT. Your Award is not an employment or service contract, and nothing in your Award shall be deemed to create in any way whatsoever any obligation on your part to continue in the service of the Company or any Affiliate, or on the part of the Company or any Affiliate to continue such service. In addition, nothing in your Award shall obligate the Company or any Affiliate, their respective stockholders, boards of directors or employees to continue any relationship that you might have as an Employee or Consultant of the Company or any Affiliate. Finally, your participation in the Plan shall not create a right to employment or service or be interpreted as forming or amending an employment or service contract with the Company, and shall not interfere with the ability of the Employer (as defined in Section 10 below) to terminate your employment or service relationship at any time with or without Cause.

9. UNSECURED OBLIGATION. Your Award is unfunded, and even as to any Restricted Stock Units which vest, you shall be considered an unsecured creditor of the Company with respect to the Company’s obligation, if any, to issue Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement. You shall not have voting or any other rights as a stockholder of the Company with respect to the Common Stock acquired pursuant to this Agreement until such Common Stock is issued to you pursuant to Section 3 of this Agreement. Upon such issuance, you will obtain full voting and other rights as a stockholder of the Company with respect to the Common Stock so issued and held by you. Nothing contained in this Agreement, and no action taken pursuant to its provisions, shall create or be construed to create a trust of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between you and the Company or any other person.

10. WITHHOLDING OBLIGATIONS.

(a) You acknowledge that, regardless of any action the Company or your employer if different from the Company, whether current or former (the “Employer”) takes with respect to Tax-Related Items, the ultimate liability for any or all income tax, social insurance contributions, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding related to your participation in the Plan and legally applicable to you (“Tax-Related Items”) is and remains your responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Employer. You further acknowledge that the Employer (1) makes no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Award, including the grant, vesting or settlement of the Award, the subsequent sale of shares delivered pursuant thereto and the receipt of any dividends; and (2) does not commit to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Award to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if you are or become subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction, you acknowledge that the Employer may be required to withhold, account for, and/or otherwise cause you to tender a payment to the Employer in the amount of the Tax-Related Items arising in each jurisdiction.

3

(b) On or before the time you receive a distribution of Common Stock pursuant to your Award, or at any time thereafter as requested by the Company, you hereby agree to make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, you hereby authorize the Employer or its respective agents, at their discretion, to withhold all applicable Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following: (1) withholding in shares of Common Stock issuable to you upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, the number of which shall be determined to comply with appropriate tax laws and as would be otherwise necessary or desirable; or (2) withholding from your wages or other cash compensation paid to you by the Employer and/or the Company; or (3) withholding from the proceeds of the sale of shares of Common Stock acquired upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, either through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on your behalf pursuant to this authorization without further consent) or a voluntary sale (including permitting or requiring you to enter into an immediate sale commitment with a broker-dealer that is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority). Notwithstanding that the Appendix for your country may specify a particular method by which the Company or the Employer intends to recover the Tax-Related Items from you, the Company reserves the right to recover Tax-Related Items by any of the methods set forth in Section 10 of this Agreement, except that if you are an officer, director or 10% stockholder of the Company within the meaning of Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the regulations thereunder, Tax-Related Items shall be recovered by withholding in shares of Common Stock as described in this Section 10(b)(1) above.

(c) The Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering statutory withholding rates or other withholding rates, including maximum rates applicable in your jurisdiction, in which case you will receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash and will have no entitlement to the Common Stock equivalent. If the obligation for the Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in shares of Common Stock, then you will be deemed to have been issued the full number of shares of Common Stock subject to the vested Restricted Stock Units, notwithstanding that a number of the shares are held back solely for the purpose of paying Tax-Related Items. You will have no further rights, title or interests in or to the number of shares of Common Stock that are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items.

(d) You shall pay to the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Employer may be required to withhold as a result of your receipt of the Award and/or the shares issuable pursuant thereto that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. Unless the tax withholding obligations of the Company and/or the Employer are satisfied, the Company shall have no obligation to deliver to you any Common Stock or the proceeds from any sale of the shares of Common Stock.

(e) Finally, in the event the Company’s obligation to withhold arises prior to the delivery to you of Common Stock or it is determined after the delivery of Common Stock to you that the amount of the Company’s withholding obligation was greater than the amount withheld by the Company, you agree to indemnify and hold the Company harmless from any failure by the Company to withhold the proper amount.

11. NATURE OF GRANT. In accepting this Award, you acknowledge, understand and agree that:

(a) the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, is discretionary in nature, and may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company as provided in the Plan;

(b) the grant of the Award and any other awards under the Plan is exceptional, voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive awards, shares or any other benefit or compensation in lieu of future awards, even if awards have been granted in the past;

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

(d) you are voluntarily participating in the Plan;

(e) the Award and the shares of Common Stock subject to the Award, and the income and value of same, are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation;

(f) the Award and the shares of Common Stock subject to the Award, and the income and value of same, are not paid in lieu of any normal or expected compensation or salary for purposes of calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, life or accident insurance benefits, pension or retirement benefits or similar payments;

4

(g) unless otherwise agreed with the Company, the Award and any shares deliverable thereunder, and the income and value of same, are not granted as consideration for, or in connection with, the service you may provide as a director of an Affiliate of the Company;

(h) for purposes of the Award, your Continuous Service will be considered terminated as of the date determined by the Company in its sole discretion;

(i) the future value of the shares underlying the Award is unknown and cannot be predicted;

(j) should you die owning shares of Common Stock or the Award, such shares or the Award may subject your estate to United States federal estate taxes, even if you are not otherwise subject to United States federal income tax or other United States employment taxes, and you should seek your own tax advice regarding this potential tax;

(k) you disclaim any entitlement to compensation or damages arising from the termination of the Award, including as the result of termination of your Continuous Service with the Employer (for any reason whatsoever, whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction where you are employed or providing services or the terms of any employment or service agreement), or diminution in value of the shares of Common Stock;

(l) the Plan and this Agreement set forth the entire understanding between you, the Company, the Employer, and any Affiliate regarding the acquisition of the shares of Common Stock and supersede all prior oral and written agreements pertaining to the Award; and

(m) the following provisions apply only if you are providing services outside the United States:

(i) the Award and the shares of Common Stock subject to the Award, and the value and income of same, are extraordinary items that are not part of normal or expected compensation for any purpose; and

(ii) neither the Company, the Employer nor any Affiliate shall be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between your local currency and the United States Dollar that may affect the value of the Award or of any amounts due to you pursuant to the vesting of the Award or the subsequent sale of any shares of Common Stock acquired upon vesting.

12. DATA PRIVACY AND DECLARATION OF CONSENT. If you would like to accept the Award and participate in the Plan, you need to review the following information about the processing of personal data by or on behalf of the Company, the Employer and/or any Affiliate as described in this Notice and Agreement and any other Award materials (the “Personal Data”) and declare your consent. As regards the processing of your Personal Data in connection with the Plan and the Agreement, the Company is the controller of your Personal Data.

(a) Data Processing and Legal Basis. The Company collects, uses and otherwise processes Personal Data about you for the purposes of allocating shares of Common Stock and implementing, administering and managing the Plan. This Personal Data may include, without limitation, your name, home address and telephone number, email address, date of birth, social security insurance, passport number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any shares or directorships held in the Company, details of all awards or any other entitlement to shares of stock awarded, canceled, settled, vested, unvested or outstanding in your favor. The legal basis for the processing of your Personal Data will be your consent.

5

(b) Stock Plan Administration Service Providers. The Company transfers your Personal Data, or parts thereof, to E*TRADE Securities LLC (and its affiliated companies), 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 a different service provider and share your Personal Data with such different service provider that serves the Company in a similar manner. The Company’s service provider will open an account for you to receive and trade shares of Common Stock acquired upon vesting of the Award. You will be asked to agree on separate terms and data processing practices with the service provider, which is a condition of your ability to accept the Award and otherwise participate in the Plan.

(c) International Data Transfers. The Company and, as of the date hereof, any third parties assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan, such as the Company’s service providers, are based in the United States. If you are located outside the United States, you understand and acknowledge that your country has enacted data privacy laws that are different from the laws of the United States. For example, the European Commission has issued only a limited adequacy finding with respect to the United States that applies solely if and to the extent that companies self-certify and remain self-certified under the EU/U.S. Privacy Shield program. Otherwise, transfers of personal data from the EU to the United States can be made on the basis of Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission or other appropriate safeguards permissible under the applicable law. If you are located in the EU or EEA, the Company may receive, process and transfer your Personal Data onward to third-party service providers solely on the basis of appropriate data transfer agreements or other appropriate safeguards permissible under applicable law. You can ask for a copy of the appropriate data processing agreements underlying the transfer of your Personal Data by contacting your local human resources representative.

(d) Data Retention. The Company will use your Personal Data only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage your participation in the Plan, or to comply with legal or regulatory obligations, including under tax and securities laws. In the latter case, the Company’s legal basis for the processing of your Personal Data would be compliance with the relevant laws or regulations or the pursuit by the Company of respective legitimate interests not outweighed by your interests, rights or freedoms. When the Company no longer needs your Personal Data for any of the above purposes, the Company will remove it from its systems.

(e) Voluntariness and Consequences of Denial/Withdrawal of Consent. Your participation in the Plan and your grant of consent is purely voluntary. You may deny or later withdraw your consent at any time, with future effect and for any or no reason. If you deny or later withdraw your consent, the Company can no longer grant Restricted Stock Units or other awards to you or administer or maintain such awards and you would no longer be able to participate in the Plan. This would, however, not affect your status or salary as an employee or your career. You would merely forfeit the opportunities associated with the Plan.

(f) Data Subject Rights. Data subject rights regarding the processing of personal data vary depending on the applicable law. Depending on where you are based and subject to the conditions set out in the applicable law, you may have, without limitation, the rights to (i) inquire whether and what kind of Personal Data the Company holds about you and how it is processed, and to access or request copies of such Personal Data, (ii) request the correction or supplementation of Personal Data about you that is inaccurate, incomplete or out-of-date in light of the purposes underlying the processing, or (iii) obtain the erasure of Personal Data no longer necessary for the purposes underlying the processing, processed based on withdrawn consent, processed for legitimate interests that, in the context of your objection, do not prove to be compelling, or processed in non-compliance with applicable legal requirements. In addition, you may, subject to the conditions set out in the applicable law and without limitation, have the rights to (iv) request the Company to restrict the processing of your Personal Data in certain situations where you feel its processing is inappropriate, (v) object, in certain circumstances, to the processing of Personal Data for legitimate interests, and (vi) request portability of your Personal Data that you have actively or passively provided to the Company (which does not include data derived or inferred from the collected data), where the processing of such Personal Data is based on consent or your employment or service contract and is carried out by automated means. In case of concerns, you may also have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent local data protection authority. To receive clarification of, or to exercise any of, your rights you may contact your local human resources representative.

(i) You acknowledge that a waiver by the Company of breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement, or of any subsequent breach by you or any other Participant.
