Dear Joel:


 


We couldn't be more excited by the prospect of you joining
our team. While our plans for PLAY STUDIOS have been, and still are, ambitious, we're confident that
with the right people, we will achieve our full potential.


 


As you consider joining us on this journey, I thought
it would be appropriate to outline the basic terms of our partnership. I’ve included an outline that I feel addresses the key questions.
Let me know if we need to discuss or further clarify any of the terms.


 


Given the aggressive nature of
our plans, and the significance of your role, we're hoping you reach a decision, sign and return this offer by December 21st.
I look forward to hearing from you.
