Jamie Iannone
c/o eBay
2065 Hamilton Avenue
San Jose, CA 95125

Dear Jamie:

eBay Inc. (the “Company” or “eBay”) is pleased to offer you, on the terms and
conditions set forth in this offer letter (the “Offer Letter”), the position of
President and Chief Executive Officer. You will be appointed as a member of the
Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) concurrently with your
appointment as President and Chief Executive Officer. The terms and conditions
of this Offer Letter have been approved by the Compensation Committee of the
Board.

Cash Compensation
Your salary shall be set at a bi-weekly rate of $38,461.54, which is equivalent
to an annual base salary of $1,000,000.04.

You will be eligible to participate in the eBay Incentive Plan (“eIP”) with an
annual bonus based on individual achievement as well as Company performance. The
annual bonus period is from January 1 through December 31. Your target bonus for
the eIP is 200% of your annual base salary, pro-rated based on the eligible
earnings paid while you are employed in an eIP eligible position during the
annual bonus period (provided that no proration will apply for the 2020 annual
bonus period). There is no guarantee that any eIP bonus will be paid and any
actual bonus will be determined after the end of the annual bonus period based
on your eligible earnings as defined in the eIP (provided that, and
notwithstanding anything to the contrary, for the 2020 annual bonus period, your
minimum eIP bonus will be $1,500,000). To be eligible to receive any eIP bonus,
you must be employed on or before the first business day of the fourth quarter
and you must be employed on the date the bonus is paid. The eIP bonus is
customarily paid on or before the March 15 immediately following the end of the
applicable annual bonus period. Except as otherwise expressly provided above
with respect to the minimum 2020 eIP bonus, the payment of any bonus is at the
Board’s discretion and subject to the terms and conditions of the eIP and the
Board reserves the right, in its discretion, to amend, change or cancel the eIP
at any time.

New Hire Equity Compensation
You will be granted two awards of restricted stock units (“RSUs”), an award of
performance-based restricted stock units (“PBRSUs”) and an award of performance
stock units with performance conditions linked to relative TSR (“TSR PSUs”), as
described in the following paragraphs (collectively, “New Hire Equity
Awards”). The grants of the RSUs, the PBRSUs, and the TSR PSUs will be made on
the date that is 10 calendar days following your start date (“New Hire Grant
Date”). Each grant is described as a U.S. dollar value. For each RSU award, the
number of shares to be granted will be determined by dividing the U.S. dollar
value of the RSU award by the Average eBay Closing Price (as described in this
paragraph) and rounding up to the nearest whole number of shares of eBay common
stock. For the PBRSU award and TSR PSU award, the number of shares subject to
the target award will be determined by dividing the U.S. dollar value of the
award by the Average eBay Closing Price (as described in this paragraph) and
rounding up to the nearest whole number of shares of eBay common stock. The
“Average eBay Closing Price” shall be calculated based on the average of the
closing prices of eBay common stock in U.S. dollars for the period consisting of
ten (10) full, consecutive trading days of eBay stock in which the trading of
eBay stock is not otherwise interrupted for any reason (and if so,
Page 1

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

such trading day shall be excluded from the ten (10) consecutive days, as if
that trading day did not occur) ending on (and including) the last of such
trading days prior to the date of grant.  

In accordance with the methodology above, you will be granted on the New Hire
Grant Date an award of RSUs valued at USD $4,800,000 (“RSU Award No. 1”) to be
granted under the terms and conditions of eBay’s current stock plans (the
“Plans”) as well as the terms and conditions of the RSU agreement (which will be
provided to you as soon as practicable after the grant date). RSU Award No. 1
will vest and become non-forfeitable (assuming your continued employment with an
eBay company on each vesting date) over four years as follows: 25% on the first
anniversary of the date of grant and an additional 1/16th of the shares subject
to the award each three month period thereafter, subject to applicable taxes and
withholdings.

You will also be granted on the New Hire Grant Date an award of PBRSUs valued at
USD $7,200,000 (“New Hire PBRSUs”) to be granted under the terms and conditions
of the Plans as well as the terms and conditions of the PBRSU agreement (which
will be provided to you as soon as practicable after the grant date). The PBRSUs
will be subject to performance over the period January 1, 2020 through December
31, 2021 under the 2020-2021 PBRSU cycle approved by the Compensation Committee.
The actual amount of the award will be determined based on Company performance
and will be subject to the terms and conditions of the performance plan approved
by the Compensation Committee of the Board. Any PBRSUs earned for this cycle
will vest as to 100% of the earned shares (subject to applicable taxes and
withholdings) in March 2023, subject to your continued employment with an eBay
company.

You will also be granted on the New Hire Grant Date an equity award of RSUs
valued at USD $6,500,000 (“RSU Award No. 2”) to be granted under the terms and
conditions of the Plans as well as the terms and conditions of the RSU agreement
(which will be provided to you as soon as practicable after the grant date). RSU
Award No. 2 will vest and become non-forfeitable (assuming your continued
employment with an eBay company on each vesting date) over two years as follows:
50% on the first anniversary of the date of grant and 50% on the second
anniversary of the date of grant, subject to applicable taxes and withholdings. 

You will also be granted on the New Hire Grant Date an award of TSR PSUs valued
at USD $4,500,000 (assuming achievement of the applicable performance goals at
the target level) to be granted under the terms and conditions of a Performance
Stock Unit Award Grant Notice and Performance Stock Unit Award Agreement (which
will be provided to you as soon as practicable after the grant date) as well as
the terms and conditions of the Plans. 50% of the TSR PSUs will be subject to a
two-year performance period from the grant date to the second anniversary of the
grant date and 50% of the TSR PSUs will be subject to a three-year performance
period from the grant date to the third anniversary of the grant date and the
target number of TSR PSUs subject to the award will be adjusted based on a
calculation of the eBay Total Shareholder Return in relation to the S&P 500
Index for the applicable performance period.

Annual Equity Awards

Subject to the terms of the Plans (or any successor Company equity plan), you
will be eligible to receive annual equity compensation grants under eBay’s
annual compensation review process beginning in 2021 (“Annual Equity Awards”),
subject to your continued employment through the applicable grant date. The
target value of the 2021 grant, which is expected to be made no later than April
30, 2021, is $12,000,000, to be comprised of 40% RSUs and 60% PBRSUs. For 2022
and later years, the Compensation Committee will determine the target grant
value of your annual grant taking into account all relevant factors, including
market compensation. The aggregate target grant value and form of all subsequent
awards will be determined by eBay and approved by the Compensation Committee of
the Board. Your Annual Equity Awards for each year will be granted at the same
time as annual equity
         2

which is expected to be made no later than April 30 of each year.

Dividends on Awards

For all equity awarded to you, either in the form of RSUs, PBRSUs, TSR PSUs or
any other form performance-based stock awards (“Unit(s)”), you will receive upon
vesting of any such Units a dividend payment, less taxes and withholdings as may
be applicable, equal to the accumulated dividends which you would have otherwise
received from the date of the award through the date of vesting as if you owned
outright shares of the Company equal to the number of vested Units.

Trading Agreement

All employees are subject to eBay’s Insider Trading Agreement, which outlines
the procedures and guidelines governing securities trades by company personnel.
You will be provided with a copy of eBay’s Insider Trading Agreement. Please
review the Agreement carefully. You will be asked to execute the certification
as part of your new hire onboarding process.

Although your employment with the Company shall be “at-will” as set forth below,
you will be entitled to severance protection in certain circumstances, as
described below, subject in all instances to you executing and not revoking the

case, other than during a “Change in Control Period” (as defined in the CIC
Severance Plan) (a “Qualifying Termination”). The Severance Plan is being
amended and restated in connection with your appointment to add the Chief
Executive Officer as an eligible participant. We have provided a copy of the
Severance Plan for your reference. If you experience a Qualifying Termination on
or before the second anniversary of your start date, then (i) for purposes of

anniversary of your Separation Date (as defined in the Severance Plan) shall be
deemed achieved at the target level and (ii) your Company Equity Awards in the
form of performance-based restricted stock units that become vested at the
target level as described in clause (i) shall be settled within sixty (60) days
following your Separation Date. The TSR PSUs shall be treated as
“performance-based restricted stock units” for purposes of the Severance Plan
and the preceding sentence. Notwithstanding the terms of the Severance Plan, if
a Qualifying Termination occurs prior to the second anniversary of your start
date, the New Hire PBRSUs shall accelerate and vest immediately at the target
level and RSU Award No. 1 shall accelerate and vest immediately.

        Termination During a Change in Control Period. You will be eligible to
participate in the then effective CIC Severance Plan at Tier 1. Under the CIC
Severance Plan, you will be entitled to certain benefits if your employment is
terminated by the Company for reasons other than for Cause (as defined in the
CIC Severance Plan as in effect on the date hereof) or due to your resignation
without Good Reason (as defined in the CIC Severance Plan as in effect on the
date hereof), in each case, during the “Change in Control Period” (as defined in
the CIC Severance Plan). The CIC Severance Plan is being amended and restated in
connection with your appointment to add the Chief Executive Officer as an
eligible participant. We have provided a copy of the CIC Severance Plan for your
reference.

provisions maintained by the Company from time to time, whether in its
certificate of incorporation or otherwise and (ii) as an insured officer under
the Company’s director and officer liability insurance policy as in effect from
time to time, in each case, to the same extent, and on the same terms, as other
executive officers of the Company.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

        Stock Ownership Guidelines

        As Chief Executive Officer, you shall be subject to the eBay Stock

costs incurred by you in the preparation for your employment with the Company
through your date of hire, but not to exceed $45,000.

        Superseding Terms

        If there is any conflict between the terms of this Offer Letter and any
other compensation or benefit or plan of the Company applicable to you and any
term of this Offer Letter is more favorable to you with respect to the subject
matter of such conflict, then such term contained within this Offer Letter shall
supersede, control and take precedence to the extent of such conflict.

questions about either agreement, please contact me.
