 1. Duties and Scope of Employment. Executive will serve as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and Chief
Operating Officer reporting to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, and will perform the duties, consistent with this position, as assigned by Executive’s supervisor or the Company’s Board of Directors (the
“Board”). 
 2. Employment Term. Subject to the provisions of Section 5, beginning on the Effective Date and, continuing until
December 31, 2018, Executive will be employed with the Company on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement; provided, however, that beginning on December 31, 2017 and on each one year anniversary thereafter (each
an “Extension Date”), the Employment Term will be automatically extended for an additional one-year period, unless the Company or Executive provides the other party written notice at least 30 calendar days before the Extension Date
that the Employment Term will not be extended. 
 3. Compensation. 

(a) Base Salary. Company will pay Executive an annual salary of $750,000, as compensation for services (the “Base
Salary”). The Base Salary will be paid according to the Company’s normal payroll practices and subject to the usual and required withholdings. Executive’s salary may be reviewed and adjusted annually by Executive’s Supervisor
or the Board. 

  
 1 








 (b) Annual Bonus. Commencing with the 2014 fiscal year, Executive is eligible to earn a
target annual bonus of 100% of Executive’s Base Salary based upon achievement of revenue and cash EBITDA performance objectives to be determined by the Board in its sole discretion and payable upon achievement of those applicable objectives,
subject to minimum and maximum limits as established by the Company (the “Annual Bonus”). If a non-individual performance target is lowered for other senior executives, then it will be lowered for Executive as well. If any Annual
Bonus is earned, it will be paid when practicable after the Board determines it has been earned, subject to Executive being employed on the date of payment. For future years, the Board may modify the structure and performance objectives used for
Annual Bonus determinations. 
 (c) Equity Plan. Any equity awards held by Executive as of the Effective Date are governed by the
terms and conditions of the Desert Newco LLC 2011 Unit Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan’’), the Desert Newco, LLC Unit Option Agreement, and the Management Equity and Unitholders Agreement (collectively, including the Incentive
Plan, the “Equity Documents”). Equity awards outstanding as of the Effective Date will not have their terms modified by this Agreement and are listed as follows: 

 

	 	•	 	3,675,000 options with a per unit exercise price of $3.951157 

 The outstanding equity awards
provide that if Executive remains employed with the Company or its subsidiaries through the date of a Change in Control, then 100% of the Units subject to such Unit Option will be immediately vested and exercisable immediately prior to the Change in
Control if as a result of the Change in Control, the Sponsors (x) achieve an internal rate of return of at least 25% or (y) earn at least 3.0 times the purchase price of the GoDaddy Equity Interests they acquired. Terms undefined in the
prior sentence have the meaning set forth in the Equity Documents and the language of the Equity Documents more fully describes these concepts. 
 4.
Employee Benefits. 
 (a) Executive will be entitled to participate in the employee benefit plans, including invention incentive
programs, maintained by the Company and generally applicable to senior executives of the Company. The Company may cancel or change the benefit plans and programs it offers and those changes will not breach this Agreement. 

(b) During Executive’s employment by the Company, Executive will be provided coverage under the Company’s directors and
officers’ liability insurance policy and form of indemnification agreement as in effect for other senior executives of the Company. 
 5.
Termination of Employment; Severance. 
 (a) At-Will Employment. Executive and the Company agree that Executive’s employment
with the Company will be “at-will” employment and may be terminated at any time with or without cause or notice. Executive understands and agrees this at-will employment relationship will not be modified or amended unless it is done in a
writing that complies with Section 10(f) and Section 10(i) and explicitly references this Section 5(a). Executive’s employment will terminate upon the earlier to occur of (i) a termination by the Company with or without
Cause, (ii) Executive’s Disability or death, or (iii) a resignation by Executive with or without Good Reason. 
 (b)
Terminations of Employment. Executive’s employment may be terminated under various scenarios addressed in this Section 5(b). Upon any termination of employment, Executive will receive benefits described in Section 5(b)(i).
Depending on the circumstances of the termination of employment, subject to the conditions in Section 6, Executive may be entitled to a lump sum payment of the amounts listed under one of Section 5(b)(ii), Section 5(b)(iii), or
Section 5(b)(iv). Executive agrees that upon termination of Executive’s employment for any reason, Executive will resign as of the date of such termination and to the extent applicable, from the Board (and any committees thereof), the
board of directors (and any committees thereof) of any of the Company’s affiliates and from any other positions Executive holds with the Company or any of its affiliates. 

  
 2 








 (i) Termination for Cause or Resignation Other Than for Good Reason. Executive’s
employment may be terminated for Cause, effective upon the Company’s delivery to Executive of a Notice of Termination or the Executive may resign. If Executive’s employment is terminated for Cause or Executive resigns other than for Good
Reason, Executive will receive: 
 (1) the Base Salary accrued through the termination date, payable under the Company’s usual payment
practices; 
 (2) reimbursement within 60 days following submission by Executive to the Company of appropriate supporting documentation for
any unreimbursed business expenses properly incurred by Executive prior to the termination date; provided that claims for reimbursement are submitted, under Company policy, to the Company within 90 days following the termination date; and 

(3) any fully vested and non-forfeitable employee benefits to which Executive may be entitled under the Company’s employee benefit plans
(other than benefits in the nature of severance pay) (the amounts described in clauses (1) through (3) above are referred to later as the “Accrued Obligations”). 

(ii) Termination by Reason of Disability or Death. Executive’s employment may be terminated effective upon the Company’s
delivery to Executive of a Notice of Termination if Executive becomes Disabled and will automatically terminate upon Executive’s death. Upon termination of Executive’s employment for either Disability or death, Executive or
Executive’s estate (as the case may be) will receive: 
 (1) the Accrued Obligations; 

(2) any earned but unpaid Annual Bonus for a prior year. For the avoidance of doubt, if Executive is terminated after the end of a fiscal
year but before annual bonuses are approved and paid to other senior executives in the normal course of business, then Executive will receive an Annual Bonus for the prior fiscal year, the actual amount of which will still be subject to the
achievement of any performance targets as established by the Company the achievement of which will be determined by the Company. Any payment under this Section 5(b)(iii)(2) will be paid no later than one day prior to the date that is 2 1⁄2 months following the last day of the fiscal year in which such termination occurred; and 

(3) a prorated Annual Bonus amount for the year of termination, if any would have been payable to Executive based on achievement of
performance criteria if Executive had remained employed through the full fiscal year in which the termination of employment occurred. The prorated amount will be calculated based on the number of calendar days employed and any such prorated amount
will be paid no later than one day prior to the date that is 2 1⁄2 months following the last day of the fiscal year in which such termination occurred. 

(iii) Termination Without Cause, Resignation for Good Reason. Executive’s employment may be terminated without Cause effective
upon the Company’s delivery to Executive of a Notice of Termination, or by Executive’s resignation for Good Reason effective 30 days following delivery to the Company of Notice of Termination provided such delivery is within 90 days
following the occurrence of events that result in Good Reason. No resignation for Good Reason will be effective unless during the 30-day period following the delivery of the Notice of Termination, the Company has not cured the events that result in
Good Reason. If Executive’s employment is terminated without Cause (other than by reason of death or Disability), or if Executive resigns for Good Reason, Executive will receive: 

(1) the Accrued Obligations; 

  
 3 








 (2) any earned but unpaid Annual Bonus for a prior year; 

(3) an amount equal to a prorated amount of the target Annual Bonus for the year of termination; 

(4) a payment equal to 100% of the annual Base Salary in effect on the termination date; and 

(5) a payment equal to the cost of health insurance coverage under COBRA for 12 months. 

(iv) Termination of Employment During a Change in Control Period. If Executive’s employment is terminated under circumstances that
would entitle Executive to payment of benefits under Section 5(b)(iii) and such termination of employment occurs during the period that begins three months prior to a Change in Control and ends on the date that is 18 months after a Change in
Control, then Executive will receive the benefits described in Section 5(b)(iii), but the payment in Section 5(b)(iii)(3) will be equal to 150% of target Annual Bonus, the payment in Section 5(b)(iii)(4) will be equal to 150% of
annual Base Salary in effect on the termination date (or the date immediately prior to the Change in Control if higher), and the health insurance coverage payment in Section 5(b)(iii)(5) will be for 18 months. 

(c) Exclusive Remedy. If a termination of Executive’s employment with the Company occurs, the provisions of this Section 5
are intended to be and are exclusive and in lieu of any other rights or remedies to which Executive or the Company may otherwise be entitled, whether at law, tort or contract, in equity, or under this Agreement. Executive will be entitled to no
severance or other benefits upon termination of employment other than those benefits expressly set forth in this Section 5. 
 6. Conditions to
Receipt of Severance; No Duty to Mitigate. 
 (a) Separation Agreement and Release of Claims. Executive will not receive severance
pay or benefits other than the Accrued Obligations unless (x) Executive signs and does not revoke a separation agreement and release of claims in the form attached as Exhibit A, but with any appropriate reasonable modifications, reflecting
changes in applicable law, as is necessary to provide the Company with the protection it would have if the Release was executed as of the date of this Agreement (the “Release”) and (y) such Release becomes effective and
irrevocable no later than sixty (60) days following the termination date (such deadline, the “Release Deadline”). If the Release does not become effective and irrevocable by the Release Deadline, Executive will forfeit any
rights to severance or benefits under this Agreement. All payments will be made upon the effectiveness of the Release but will be delayed until a subsequent calendar year if necessary so their timing does not result in penalty taxation under
Section 409A. Severance payments or benefits will not be paid or provided until the Release becomes effective and irrevocable. For avoidance of doubt, although Executive’s severance payments and benefits are contractual rights, not
“damages,” Executive is not required to seek other employment or otherwise “mitigate damages” as a condition of receiving such payments and benefits. 

(b) If any amount or benefit that would constitute non-exempt “deferred compensation” under Internal Revenue Code
(“Code”) Section 409A would be payable under this Agreement by reason of Executive’s “separation from service” during a period in which Executive is a “specified employee” (within the meaning of Code
Section 409A as determined by the Company), then any payment or benefits will be delayed until the earliest date on which they could be paid or distributed without being subject to penalty taxation under Code Section 409A.  

(c) Each payment and benefit payable under this Agreement is intended to constitute a separate payment under Treasury Regulations
Section 1.409A-2(b)(2). 

  
 4 








 (d) Covenants. Executive’s receipt of any payment or benefits other than Accrued
Obligations will be subject to Executive continuing to comply with his confidentiality obligations to the Company and Section 9. 
 7. Definitions.

 (a) Cause means (i) willfully engaging in illegal conduct or gross misconduct that is materially injurious to the Company
or any of its Subsidiaries; (ii) conviction of, or entry of a plea of nolo contendere or guilty to, a felony or a crime of moral turpitude; (iii) engaging in fraud, misappropriation, embezzlement or any other act or acts of dishonesty
resulting or intended to result directly or indirectly in a gain or personal enrichment to Executive at the expense of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; (iv) willful material breach of any written policies of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries including any agreement between Executive and the Company (which policy or policies previously was provided to Executive); or (v) willful and continual failure to substantially perform his or her duties with the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries (other than a failure resulting from his or her incapacity due to physical or mental illness), which failure has continued for a period of at least 30 days after a written demand for substantial performance is delivered to Executive
by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries which specifically identifies the manner in which the Company believes that Executive has not substantially performed Executive’s duties. 

(b) Change in Control means Change in Control as defined in the Desert Newco, LLC 2011 Unit Incentive Plan and the Amended and Restated
Limited Liability Company Agreement of Desert Newco, LLC, dated as of December 16, 2011. 
 (c) Disabled means physically or
mentally incapacitated and unable for a period of six (6) consecutive months or for an aggregate of nine (9) months in any twenty-four (24) consecutive month period to perform Executive’s duties (such incapacity is a

qualified independent physician, each will appoint a physician and those two physicians will select a third physician who will make such determination in writing. The determination will be final and conclusive for this Agreement.

Executive’s place of employment to a facility or location more than thirty-five (35) miles from Executive’s current place of employment.

within the meaning of Code Section 280G and (ii) but for this Section 8, would be subject to the “golden parachute” excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, then Executive’s severance benefits will reduced
to a level that will result in no tax under Code Section 4999 unless it would be better economically for Executive receive all of the benefits and pay the excise tax. If a reduction in benefits is necessary for this purpose, then the reduction
will occur in the following order (1) reduction of the cash severance payments; (2) cancellation of accelerated vesting of equity awards; and (3) reduction of continued employee benefits. If the acceleration of vesting of equity award
compensation is to be reduced, that acceleration of vesting will be cancelled in the reverse order of the date of grant of Executive’s equity awards. Any determination required under this Section 8 will be made in writing by an independent
professional services firm chosen by the Company immediately prior to a Change of Control and paid for by the Company and that determination will be conclusive and binding upon Executive and the Company for all purposes. 

9. Covenants. 
 (a) Executive has entered
into the Company’s confidential information and restrictive covenant agreement attached as Exhibit B (“Restrictive Covenant Agreement”) and agrees that it is still effective.

requiring assignment of Inventions to the Company do not apply to any invention that qualifies fully under the provisions of California Labor Code Section 2870 (attached hereto as Exhibit B). I will advise the Company promptly in writing

HOUSING, THE EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY COMMISSION, THE NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS BOARD, OR THE WORKERS’ COMPENSATION BOARD. THIS AGREEMENT DOES, HOWEVER, PRECLUDE ME FROM PURSUING COURT ACTION REGARDING ANY SUCH CLAIM, EXCEPT AS PERMITTED BY
LAW. 
 E. Voluntary Nature of Agreement. I ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT I AM EXECUTING THIS
AGREEMENT VOLUNTARILY AND WITHOUT ANY DURESS OR UNDUE INFLUENCE BY THE COMPANY OR ANYONE ELSE. I FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT I HAVE CAREFULLY READ THIS AGREEMENT AND THAT I HAVE ASKED ANY QUESTIONS NEEDED FOR ME TO UNDERSTAND THE TERMS,
CONSEQUENCES, AND BINDING EFFECT OF THIS AGREEMENT AND FULLY UNDERSTAND IT, INCLUDING THAT I AM WAIVING MY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL. FINALLY, I AGREE THAT I HAVE BEEN PROVIDED AN OPPORTUNITY TO SEEK THE ADVICE OF AN ATTORNEY OF MY CHOICE

 Employee Non-Compete Agreement 

This Agreement between GoDaddy.com, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company with its headquarters in Scottsdale, Arizona
(“GoDaddy”), and the undersigned employee (“Employee”), is effective on the date that Employee’s employment with GoDaddy actively begins, or the date that Employee signs this agreement, whichever is later. 

1. Purpose. As an employee of GoDaddy, Employee will be exposed to GoDaddy’s Confidential Information. Employee understands that if this
information is not properly restricted, it could be used to create irreparable harm to GoDaddy, including the loss of its customers and employees. As a result, Employee agrees that the restrictions contained in this Agreement are reasonable and
necessary to protect GoDaddy’s legitimate business interests. 
 2. Consideration. Signing this Agreement is a requirement of Employee’s
employment with GoDaddy and Employee agrees that employment, if signed on initial hire, or continued employment, if signed during employment, is adequate consideration for entering this Agreement. 

3. At Will Employment. This Agreement does not change the at-will employment relationship between Employee and GoDaddy, which means that either party
may terminate the employment relationship at any time with or without cause, reason or notice. 
 4. Duty of Loyalty. While employed with GoDaddy,
Employee must faithfully and loyally serve GoDaddy and will not take any actions that would interfere with the business of GoDaddy, or conduct work similar to the work Employee performs for GoDaddy for any company or person without the specific
written permission of GoDaddy. These obligations are in addition to the common law and statutory duties that apply to Employee as an agent of GoDaddy, such as the general duty of loyalty owed by an agent. 

5. Non-Competition. Employee shall not, for a period of one year (and if one year is determined by a court to be unenforceable, for a period of 6
months) following the termination of Employee’s employment with GoDaddy, provide services to a competitor that are the same as or substantially similar to those Employee provided to GoDaddy while employed. A competitor is a person or business
that offers products or services that are the same or similar in function or purpose to the products or services provided by GoDaddy within the last two years of Employee’s employment by GoDaddy. Because of the nature of services provided on
the Internet, this restriction is not geographically limited, provided, however, that if a court determines that the lack of a geographical limitation renders any part of this Agreement unenforceable, this restriction shall be limited to providing
such products or services within a 50 mile radius from the location in which Employee was employed by GoDaddy at the time of the termination of Employee’s employment. 

6. Non-Disclosure of Confidential Information. Employee will maintain the confidentiality of all Confidential Information, as defined herein, and will
not engage in any unauthorized use or disclosure of Confidential Information during employment at GoDaddy and for as long as the information is maintained as Confidential Information by GoDaddy. “Confidential Information” refers to
information in any form related to GoDaddy’s business that GoDaddy has not made public or has not authorized for public disclosure and that is not already generally known to the public or to other persons who might obtain value or competitive
advantage from its disclosure or use. Confidential information includes, but is not limited to: a) information identified by GoDaddy as Confidential, Internal Use Only or Proprietary; b) GoDaddy’s trade secrets, information about released
or unreleased products, the marketing or promotion of any of GoDaddy’s products, GoDaddy’s business policies or practices, employee information, litigation strategy or contract negotiations; and c) the intellectual properties of GoDaddy.
All Confidential Information is and shall remain the property of GoDaddy, even if disclosed to Employee. 







 7. Former Employer Information. Employee agrees that during of his employment with GoDaddy, Employee will
not (i) improperly use, disclose, or induce GoDaddy to use any proprietary information or trade secrets of any former or concurrent employer or other person or entity; and (ii) bring onto the premises of GoDaddy or transfer onto
GoDaddy’s technology systems any unpublished document, proprietary information, or trade secrets belonging to any such employer, person, or entity unless consented to in writing by both GoDaddy and such employer, person, or entity. Employee
further agrees that if Employee has signed a confidentiality agreement or similar type of agreement with any former employer or other entity, that Employee will comply with the terms of any such agreement to the extent that its terms are lawful
under applicable law, Employee represents and warrant that after undertaking a careful search (including searches of my computers, cell phones, electronic devices, and documents), that Employee has returned all property and confidential information
belonging to all prior employers. 
 8. Non-Solicitation. While employed by GoDaddy. and for a period of one year following Employee’s
employment with GoDaddy, Employee agrees: a) not to encourage or induce any GoDaddy employees to end their employment relationship with GoDaddy, and b) not to solicit any person or company that is a current GoDaddy customer at the time of the
solicitation or contact to offer the sale of any services or products similar to those offered by GoDaddy, if Employee had actual business contact with the customer or acquired Confidential Information about the customer while employed by GoDaddy.

 9. Remedies. A violation of this Agreement by Employee will cause irreparable harm and continuing injury to GoDaddy for which there is no adequate
remedy at law. As a result, if Employee violates this Agreement. GoDaddy will be entitled to injunctive relief, specific performance and any other equitable relief without the need to prove the inadequacy of money damages in addition to all other
legal remedies to which GoDaddy may be entitled, including but not limited to actual and consequential damages and attorneys’ fees and costs. 
 10.
Controlling Law. This Agreement shall be construed and governed by the laws of the State of Arizona and the Parties consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal or state courts of Arizona. 

11. Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the Employee and GoDaddy regarding the subject of the Agreement. This
Agreement can only be changed by a written agreement signed by both Parties. None of the provisions of this Agreement will be considered waived by any action or inaction of the Parties, or their agents or employees, but only by an instrument in
writing signed by the Parties. 
 12. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall automatically inure to the benefit of all successors and assigns
of GoDaddy without need for any further action by GoDaddy or Employee. Employee expressly agrees that GoDaddy shall have the right to assign this Agreement to its successors and assigns, and all covenants and agreements hereunder shall inure to the
benefit of or be enforceable by said successors and assigns. 
 13. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or
unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction and cannot be reformed to make it enforceable, then such provision shall be severed from this Agreement and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect. 

This Agreement shall not be interpreted to limit or reduce the common law or statutory rights or remedies of GoDaddy.

contract or tort, or under any common law, including wrongful discharge; any practices or procedures of the Company; any claim for breach of contract, infliction of emotional distress, defamation, discrimination; 

(d) any and all claims relating to, or arising from, Employee’s right to purchase or actual purchase of shares or stock of GoDaddy,

 (f) Limitations. Employee understands that Employee is not releasing any claim that
relates to: (i) the Separation Payment or the right to enforce this Agreement; (ii) Employee’s right, if any, to claim government-provided unemployment benefits or worker’s compensation benefits, if applicable and Employee
qualifies; or (iii) any rights or claims that Employee may have which arise after the date Employee executes this Agreement. Nor does this release apply to any claims that cannot be waived by law. Employee acknowledges that except as expressly

including salary, bonus, or separation payments after the Separation Date. 
 (g) Release of Age Discrimination Claims. Employee
acknowledges that Employee is knowingly waiving and releasing any rights Employee may have under the ADEA, which includes age discrimination claims. Employee agrees that this waiver and release does not apply to any rights or claims that may arise
under the ADEA after the Effective Date of this Release. Employee acknowledges that the consideration given for this waiver and release is in addition to anything of value to which Employee was already entitled. 

(h) Unknown Claims/California Civil Code Section 1542. Employee acknowledges that he has been advised to consult with legal
counsel and is familiar with the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1542, a statute that otherwise prohibits the release of unknown claims, which provides as follows: 

A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING
THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR. 
 Employee, being aware of
said code section and the principle that a general release does not extend to claims that the releaser does not know or suspect to exist in his/her favor at the time of executing the release, which, if known by him/her, might have materially
affected his/her settlement with the releasee, and agrees to expressly waive any rights he may have thereunder, as well as under any other statute or common law principles of similar effect. 

(i) No Monetary Recovery. Employee acknowledges and understands that this Release waives all of Employee’s rights to any monetary
recovery against any of the Released Parties for any potential charge, complaint, or lawsuit. Employee agrees that the Separation Payment received under this Agreement fully satisfies any potential claim for relief in connection with any charge,
complaint, or lawsuit. 
 (j) Covenant Not to Sue. Employee acknowledges and understands that this Release prohibits Employee from
bringing any lawsuit or cause of action against any of the Released Parties for any claims covered by the Release. 
 5.
Confidentiality. Employee agrees to keep the existence and terms of this Agreement strictly confidential, including the specific information regarding the Separation Payment in paragraph 1 above. Except as required by law, Employee agrees not to
divulge any of the terms of this Agreement to anyone, or permit them to be divulged to anyone, other than Employee’s tax and/or financial advisor. Employee understands that GoDaddy has relied on Employee’s commitment to preserve the
confidentiality of this Agreement in deciding whether to enter into this Agreement. Employee agrees at all times hereafter to hold in the strictest confidence, and not to use or disclose to any person or entity, any Confidential Information of
GoDaddy. Employee understands that “Confidential Information” means any GoDaddy proprietary information, technical data, trade secrets or know-how, including, but not limited to, research, product plans, products, services, customer lists
and customers (including, but not limited to, customers of GoDaddy on whom Employee has called or with whom Employee became acquainted during the term of Employee’s employment), markets, software, developments, inventions, processes, formulas,
technology, designs, drawings, engineering, hardware

disclosed to Employee by GoDaddy either directly or indirectly, in writing, orally, or by drawings or observation of parts or equipment. Employee further understands that Confidential Information does not include any of the foregoing items that have
become publicly known and made generally available through no wrongful act of Employee’s or of others who were under confidentiality obligations as to the item or items involved or improvements or new versions thereof. Employee hereby grants
consent to notification by GoDaddy to any new employer about Employee’s obligations under this paragraph. Employee represents that Employee has not to date misused or disclosed Confidential Information to any unauthorized party. 

6. Non-Liability. This Agreement is not an admission or evidence of fault, wrongdoing or liability by GoDaddy, nor should it be
construed as such, but instead reflects the desire of the Parties to resolve the Released Claims fairly and amicably.

Non-Disparagement. Employee agrees to refrain from any disparagement, defamation, libel or slander of any of the Released Parties. GoDaddy agrees to inform relevant GoDaddy employees not to make any disparaging statements about the Employee.

regulatory, or other proceeding arising from any charge, complaint, or other action relating to the period Employee was employed by GoDaddy, or in connection with any transaction or other matter that requires Employee’s personal knowledge or
experience to resolve. GoDaddy will provide reasonable compensation to Employee for any services rendered at GoDaddy’s request.

oral or written agreements that may exist between them except for Employee’s (i) Employment Agreement; (ii) Non-Compete Agreement; and (iii) the Equity Documents (which remain in full force and effect as provided therein).

and returned to Go Daddy’s Chief Executive Officer at the address and in the manner specified in paragraph 6(i) above. Unless waived by Go Daddy, the failure to return a signed copy of this agreement within twenty-one (21) days of the
Termination Date, shall be deemed to constitute a rejection of this offer.
