This Performance Unit Agreement and the associated grant award information (the “Customizing Information”), which Customizing Information is provided in written form or is available in electronic form from the recordkeeper for the Iron Mountain Incorporated 2014 Stock and Cash Incentive Plan, as amended and in effect from time to time (the “Plan”), is made as of the date shown as the “Grant Date” in the Customizing Information (the “Grant Date”) by and between Iron Mountain Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the individual identified in the Customizing Information (the “Recipient”). This instrument and the Customizing Information are collectively referred to as the “Performance Unit Agreement.”

WITNESSETH THAT:

WHEREAS, the Company has instituted the Plan; and

WHEREAS, the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) has authorized the grant of performance units with respect to the Company’s Common Stock (“Stock”) upon the terms and conditions set forth below and pursuant to the Plan, a copy of which is incorporated herein; and

WHEREAS, the Recipient acknowledges that he or she has carefully read this Performance Unit Agreement and agrees, as provided in Section 19(a) below, that the terms and conditions of the Performance Unit Agreement reflect the entire understanding between himself or herself and the Company regarding this performance unit award (and the Recipient has not relied upon any statement or promise other than the terms and conditions of the Performance Unit Agreement with respect to this performance unit award);

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained and for other good and valuable consideration the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company and the Recipient agree as follows.

1. Grant. Subject to the terms of the Plan and this Performance Unit Agreement, the Company hereby conditionally grants to the Recipient that number of performance units equal to the corresponding number of shares of the Company’s Stock (the “Underlying Shares”) shown in the Customizing Information under “Performance Units Granted.”

The grant described in the preceding paragraph is contingent upon the satisfaction of the “Performance Criteria” over the “Performance Period,” each as shown in the Customizing Information. The Committee shall determine whether such Performance Criteria have been satisfied.

2. Adjustment to Award. The number of Performance Units Granted may be increased or decreased, including to zero, based on the “Performance Matrix” shown in the Customizing Information. Whether any adjustment based on the Performance Matrix is made shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Committee and the “Adjusted Performance Units Granted” (“PUs”) in the Customizing Information shall be updated to reflect any such adjustment.

3. Vesting.

(a) In General. If the Recipient remains in an employment, contractual or other service relationship with the Company (“Relationship”) as of the “Vesting Date” specified in the Customizing Information, and the Recipient as of such date is not in violation of any confidentiality, inventions, non-solicitation and/or non-competition agreement with the Company, the PUs shall vest on such date, based on achievement of the Performance Criteria over the Performance Period. For the avoidance of doubt, except as otherwise provided pursuant to the terms of the Plan and Sections 3(b), 3(c) or 3(d), if applicable, if the Recipient’s Relationship with the Company is terminated by the Company or by the Recipient for any reason, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, no PUs granted pursuant to this Performance Unit Agreement shall vest under any circumstances on and after the date of such termination.

(b) Retirement Vesting. Notwithstanding Section 3(a), if the Recipient’s Relationship with the Company terminates on account of Retirement (as defined below) on or after the first July 1 following the Grant Date, the PUs shall remain outstanding and continue to vest based on achievement of the Performance Criteria over the Performance Period, provided the Recipient continues to comply with any confidentiality, inventions, non-solicitation and/or non-competition agreement with the Company.

Any PUs that vest as a result of this Section 3(b) shall be delivered as of the Vesting Date as described in Section 5, provided that no PUs shall be delivered if the Recipient as of the date of delivery is in violation of any confidentiality, inventions, non-solicitation and/or non-competition agreement with the Company. For purposes of this Section 3(b), “Retirement” means a termination of the Recipient’s Relationship with the Company after the Recipient has attained age fifty-eight (58) and has a combined age and Years of Credited Service of at least seventy (70). “Years of Credited Service” shall mean the Recipient’s years of total adjusted service with the Company, calculated from the Recipient’s initial hire date with the Company (or any predecessor business acquired by the Company) and without regard to any lapses in active employment while employed by the Company, such as approved leaves of absences.

(c) Death or Disability Vesting. Notwithstanding Section 3(a), if the Recipient’s Relationship with the Company terminates as a result of his or her disability (as determined by the Board on the basis of medical advice satisfactory to it) or death, the Recipient shall become vested in his or her Performance Units Granted in accordance with the following schedule:

Date Relationship Terminates Vesting Percentage

On or after first (1st) anniversary of Grant Date 33.3%

On or after second (2nd) anniversary of Grant Date 66.6%

On or after third (3rd) anniversary of Grant Date 100%

No Performance Units Granted that vest as a result of this Section 3(c) shall be delivered if the Recipient as of the date of delivery is in violation of any confidentiality, inventions, non-solicitation and/or non-competition agreement with the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, the Performance Criteria shall be treated as satisfied (or satisfied at target, if applicable) and no adjustment shall be made pursuant to Section 2.

(d) Committee Discretion. In the event the Relationship is terminated for any reason and except as otherwise provided in Section 3(b) or 3(c), as applicable, (i) the Recipient’s right to vest in any PUs will, except as provided in Section 9(c) of the Plan, terminate as of the date of the termination of the Relationship (and will not be extended by any notice period mandated under local law) and (ii) the Committee shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when the Relationship has terminated for purposes of this PU (including when the Recipient is no longer considered to be providing active service while on a leave of absence).

(e) Special Definition of Company. For purposes of this Section 3, the term “Company” refers to the Company as defined in the last sentence of Section 1 of the Plan.

4. Dividend Equivalents. A Recipient shall be credited with dividend equivalents equal to the dividends the Recipient would have received if the Recipient had been the actual record owner of the Underlying Shares on each dividend record date on or after the Grant Date and through the date the Recipient receives a settlement pursuant to Section 5 below (the “Dividend Equivalent”). If a dividend on the Stock is payable wholly or partially in Stock, the Dividend Equivalent representing that portion shall be in the form of additional PUs, credited on a one-for-one basis. If a dividend on the Stock is payable wholly or partially in cash, the Dividend Equivalent representing that portion shall also be in the form of cash and a Recipient shall be treated as being credited with any cash dividends, without earnings, until settlement pursuant to Section 5 below. If a dividend on Stock is payable wholly or partially in other than cash or Stock, the Committee may, in its discretion, provide for such Dividend Equivalents with respect to that portion as it deems appropriate under the circumstances. Dividend Equivalents shall be subject to the same terms and conditions as the PUs originally awarded pursuant to this Performance Unit Agreement, and they shall vest (or, if applicable, be forfeited) as if they had been granted at the same time as the original PU. Dividend Equivalents representing the cash portion of a dividend on Stock shall be settled in cash.

5. Delivery of Underlying Shares or Cash Settlement.

(a) With respect to any PUs that become vested pursuant to Section 3 (other than Section 3(c)), the Company shall issue and deliver to the Recipient (i) the number of Underlying Shares equal to the number of vested PUs or an amount of cash equal to the Fair Market Value, as defined in the Plan, of such Underlying Shares as of the Vesting Date and (ii) the amount (and in the form) due with respect to the Dividend Equivalents applicable to such Underlying Shares. Delivery shall be made to the Recipient as soon as practicable following the Vesting Date but in no event later than the end of the year in which such Vesting Date occurs (or the fifteenth (15^th) day of the third (3^rd) month following the Vesting Date, if later).

(b) With respect to any Performance Units Granted that become vested pursuant to Section 3(c), the Company shall issue and deliver to the Recipient (i) the number of Underlying Shares equal to the number of vested Performance Units Granted or an amount of cash equal to the Fair Market Value, as defined in the Plan, of such Underlying Shares as of the date of disability or death and (ii) the amount (and in the form) due with respect to the Dividend Equivalents applicable to such Underlying Shares. Delivery shall be made to the Recipient as soon as practicable following the date of disability or death but in no event later than the end of the year in which disability or death occurs (or the fifteenth (15^th) day of the third (3^rd) month following the date of disability or death, if later).

(c) Whether Underlying Shares, or the cash value thereof, shall be issued or paid at settlement shall be determined based on the “Form of Settlement” specified in the Customizing Information.

(d) Any shares issued pursuant to this Performance Unit Agreement shall be issued, without issue or transfer tax, by (i) delivering a stock certificate or certificates for such shares out of theretofore authorized but unissued shares or treasury shares of its Stock as the Company may elect or (ii) issuance of shares of its Stock in book entry form; provided, however, that the time of such delivery may be postponed by the Company for such period as may be required for it with reasonable diligence to comply with any applicable requirements of law.

(e) Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this Section 5, delivery of Underlying Shares shall be made, or the amount of cash equivalent thereto shall be paid, only if the required purchase price designated as the “Purchase Price” shown in the Customizing Information per unit/share is paid to the Company by means of payment acceptable to the Company in accordance with the terms of the Plan. If the Recipient fails to pay for or accept delivery of all of the shares, the right to shares of Stock provided pursuant to this Agreement Performance Unit Agreement may be terminated by the Company.

6. Withholding Taxes. The Recipient hereby agrees, as a condition of this award, to provide to the Company (or a subsidiary employing the Recipient, as applicable) an amount sufficient to satisfy the Company’s and/or subsidiary’s obligation to withhold any and all federal, state, local or provincial income tax, social security, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or other tax-related items or statutory withholdings related to the Plan (the ”Withholding Amount”), if any, by (a) authorizing the Company and/or any subsidiary employing the Recipient, as applicable, to withhold the Withholding Amount from the Recipient’s cash compensation or (b) remitting the Withholding Amount to the Company (or a subsidiary employing the Recipient, as applicable) in cash; provided, however, that to the extent that the Withholding Amount is not provided by one or a combination of such methods, the Company may at its election withhold from the Underlying Shares and Dividend Equivalents that would otherwise be delivered that number of shares (and/or cash) having a Fair Market Value on the date of vesting sufficient to eliminate any deficiency in the Withholding Amount. Regardless of any action that the Company and/or subsidiary takes with respect to any or all federal, state, local or provincial income tax, social security, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or other tax-related items or statutory withholdings related to the Recipient’s participation in the Plan, the Recipient acknowledges that he or she, and not the Company and/or any subsidiary, has the ultimate liability for any such items. Further, if the Recipient becomes subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction between the Grant Date and the date of any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, the Recipient acknowledges that the Company and/or subsidiary may be required to withhold or account for such tax-related items in more than one jurisdiction.

7. Non-assignability of PUs and Dividend Equivalents. PUs and Dividend Equivalents shall not be assignable or transferable by the Recipient except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution or as permitted by the Committee in its discretion pursuant to the terms of the Plan. During the life of the Recipient, delivery of shares of Stock or payment of cash as settlement of PUs and Dividend Equivalents shall be made only to the Recipient, to a conservator or guardian duly appointed for the Recipient by reason of the Recipient’s incapacity or to the person appointed by the Recipient in a durable power of attorney acceptable to the Company’s counsel.

8. Compliance with Securities Act; Lock-Up Agreement. The Company shall not be obligated to sell or issue any Underlying Shares or other securities in settlement of PUs and Dividend Equivalents hereunder unless the shares of Stock or other securities are at that time effectively registered or exempt from registration under the Securities Act and applicable state or provincial securities laws. In the event shares or other securities shall be issued that shall not be so registered, the Recipient hereby represents, warrants and agrees that the Recipient will receive such shares or other securities for investment and not with a view to their resale or distribution, and will execute an appropriate investment letter satisfactory to the Company and its counsel. The Recipient further hereby agrees that as a condition to the settlement of PUs and Dividend Equivalents, the Recipient will execute an agreement in a form acceptable to the Company to the effect that the shares shall be subject to any underwriter’s lock-up agreement in connection with a public offering of any securities of the Company that may from time to time apply to shares held by officers and employees of the Company, and such agreement or a successor agreement must be in full force and effect.

9. Legends. The Recipient hereby acknowledges that the stock certificate or certificates (or entries in the case of book entry form) evidencing shares of Stock or other securities issued pursuant to any settlement of an PU or Dividend Equivalent hereunder may bear a legend (or provide a restriction) setting forth the restrictions on their transferability described in Section 8 hereof, if such restrictions are then in effect.

10. Rights as Stockholder. The Recipient shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any PUs, Dividend Equivalents or Underlying Shares until the date of issuance of a stock certificate (or appropriate entry is made in the case of book entry form) for Underlying Shares and any Dividend Equivalents. Except as provided by Section 4, no adjustment shall be made for any rights for which the record date is prior to the date such stock certificate is issued (or appropriate entry is made in the case of book entry form), except to the extent the Committee so provides, pursuant to the terms of the Plan and upon such terms and conditions it may establish.

11. Effect Upon Employment and Performance of Services. Nothing in this Performance Unit Agreement or the Plan shall be construed to impose any obligation upon the Company or any subsidiary to employ or utilize the services of the Recipient or to retain the Recipient in its employ or to engage or retain the services of the Recipient.

12. Time for Acceptance. Unless the Recipient shall evidence acceptance of this Performance Unit Agreement by electronic or other means prescribed by the Committee within sixty (60) days after its delivery, the PUs and Dividend Equivalents shall be null and void (unless waived by the Committee).

13. Right of Repayment. In the event that the Recipient breaches any confidentiality, inventions, non-solicitation and/or non-competition agreement with the Company, the Recipient shall pay to the Company an amount equal to the excess of the Fair Market Value of the Underlying Shares as of the date of settlement (whether settled in cash or Stock) over the Purchase Price, if any, paid (or deemed paid) together with the value of any Dividend Equivalents; provided, however, that the Committee in its discretion may release the Recipient from the requirement to make such payment, if the Committee determines that the Recipient’s breach of such agreement is not inimical to the best interests of the Company. In accordance with applicable law, the Company may deduct the amount of payment due under the preceding sentence from any compensation or other amount payable by the Company to the Recipient. For purposes of this Section 13, the term “Company” refers to the Company as defined in the last sentence of Section 1 of the Plan.

14. Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. The PUs and Dividend Equivalents granted hereunder are intended to avoid the potential adverse tax consequences to the Recipient of Section 409A of the Code, and the Committee may make such modifications to this Performance Unit Agreement as it deems necessary or advisable to avoid such adverse tax consequences. If and to the extent that the PUs and Dividend Equivalents are subject to Section 409A, in addition to the provisions of Section 12(f) of the Plan, any payment upon termination of the Relationship shall be made only upon a “separation from service” under Section 409A, and the Recipient may not directly or indirectly designate the calendar year of a payment.

15. Electronic Delivery. The Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related to current or future participation in the Plan by electronic means. The Recipient consents to receive such documents by electronic delivery and agrees to participate in the Plan through an on-line or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or a third party designated by the Company.

16. Company Policies. The PUs and Dividend Equivalents granted hereunder shall be subject to any applicable clawback or recoupment policies, share trading policies, and other policies that may be implemented by the Board from time to time, in accordance with applicable law.

17. Nature of Award. By accepting this PU, the Recipient acknowledges, understands and agrees 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 at any time, to the extent permitted by the Plan and this Performance Unit Agreement;

(b) the grant of this PU is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future awards under the Plan or benefits in lieu of Plan awards, even if PUs or other Plan awards have been granted in the past;

(e) the future value of the Underlying Shares is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty;

(iii) this PU, including any Dividend Equivalents, and any Underlying Shares (including the value attributable to each) are not part of normal or expected compensation or salary, including, but not limited to, for purposes of calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, end-of-service payments, bonuses, service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar payments unless such other arrangement explicitly provides to the contrary;

(iv) no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from forfeiture of the PU, including any Dividend Equivalents, resulting from the Recipient’s termination of the Relationship for any reason, and in consideration of this PU, including any Dividend Equivalents, the Recipient irrevocably agrees never to institute a claim against the Company and/or subsidiary, waives his or her ability to bring such claim and releases the Company and/or subsidiary from any claim; if, notwithstanding the foregoing, such claim is allowed by a court of competent jurisdiction, then by accepting this PU, including any Dividend Equivalents, the Recipient is deemed irrevocably to have agreed not to pursue such claim and agrees to execute any and all documents necessary to request dismissal or withdrawal of such claims; and

(g) the Company shall not be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between the Recipient’s local currency and the United States dollar that may affect the value of this PU or any amounts due pursuant to the settlement of the PU or the subsequent sale of any Underlying Shares acquired upon settlement.
