You'll never get it if you don't ask for it. You can't get fired for asking for a raise, worst that happens is they say no.
Ask for 15%, expect to settle for 10-12%. Ask for extra vacation and other stuff as well so there's some room to negotiate.
FYI: A week vacation is worth 2% salary, plus whatever they're losing in production, so keep that in mind. If they lowball you and say there's "no budget", or "you can't make more than so and so", ask for extra weeks.
