The RPG program would receive two parameters, defined as either 1-byte
character or indicator.  If you want the CL program to get the values of
the RPG *IN03 and *IN10, then your RPG code should assign *in03 to parm1
and *in12 to parm2 before it returns.  (Or maybe *INKC and *INKL)

Something like this: 

c *entry plist
c        parm        parm1     1
c        parm        parm2     1
  ...
c        eval    parm1 = *in03
c        eval    parm2 = *in12
c        return

And if you want the RPG program to use the input values of the parms for
its indicators, code something like this at the beginning of the
program:

c        eval    *in03 = parm1
c        eval    *in12 = parm2

Or you could code the parm opcodes like this, and skip the assignments:
c *entry plist
c *in03  parm *in03  parm1     1
c *in12  parm *in12  parm1     1
