Dear Brian
I am pleased to offer you the position of Executive Vice President and CMO with
Informatica Corporation. In this capacity, you will report to Sohaib Abbasi,
President and CEO and work to help Informatica (“the Company”) be successful
powering business insight for global organizations.
Your compensation package is made up of the following components:

  •   An annual base salary of $300,000.     •   An annual corporate bonus of up
to 55%, paid out twice yearly against the annual performance metrics set out in
the corporate bonus plan

In addition, you will be eligible or standard company benefits. These benefits
will be available to you on your date of hire. You will also be eligible to
participate in the Company’s 401(k) and Employee Stock Purchase Plans.
You will be granted to 300,000 new hire stock options, subject to approval by
Informatica’s Board of Directors. The grant date and the vesting commencement
date will coincide with the date the grant is approved by the Board or a

equal to the closing market price on that date. The Board or committee typically
meets twice a month to review and approve new hire option grants. New hire
options vest over four years, with a one year cliff for the first 25 percent of
such options.
As an executive officer of the Company, you will also be entitled to participate
in the Company’s executive severance plan. A copy of the Executive Severance
Agreement is attached for your review and signature.

enclosed Proprietary Agreement, indicate your acceptance of these employment
terms by signing the three documents. Please return the letter and the two
agreements to our office as detailed below. This offer and agreements enclosed
