Re: Offer of Employment with ERI
Dear Ms. Smith,
We are pleased to offer you the full-time position with Energy Recovery, Inc. (“ERI”) as Senior Director of Corporate Development, reporting to Joel Gay, Chief Executive Officer, based out of the San Leandro office.

Annual Incentive Plan. You will be eligible to participate in the Company’s Annual Incentive Plan (“AIP”) in 2015, under which you will be eligible to receive up to forty percent (40%) of your base salary for achieving performance goals. Energy Recovery will guarantee your 2015 bonus of $72,000 which is payable in March of 2016.
Sign-on Stock Option Grant. As part of this offer and subject to the approval of the Company's Board of Directors or its Compensation Committee, you may be granted an option to purchase fifty thousand (50,000) shares of ERI Common Stock under the standard terms of the Company's Amended and Restated 2008 Equity Incentive Plan.
