(iii)
	
the accelerated vesting of a portion of the equity-based compensation awards that were granted prior to the Effective Date and that are then held by the Executive as of the Separation from Service pursuant to any of the Company’s long-term incentive plans (the “Existing Equity Awards”), such that (A) any Existing Equity Award subject only to time-based vesting shall vest, as of the Separation from Service, as to the portion of the Existing Equity Award that would have vested in the 12-month period immediately following the Separation from Service (or such longer period provided under the applicable Existing Equity Award by its existing terms), and (B) any Existing Equity Award subject to performance-based vesting shall vest, as of the Separation from Service, as to an additional number of shares equal to 25% of the total Existing Equity Award (including the vesting of the next three unvested milestones) (or, if less than 25% of the total Existing Equity Award remains unvested as of the Separation from Service, the Existing Equity Award shall vest in full) (or any remaining unvested milestones if less than three remain); and

The Executive’s failure or refusal to sign the release (or the Executive’s revocation of such release) shall result in the forfeiture of the payments and benefits under Sections 3(c) and 3(d).

(vii)
	
the Executive’s breach of any material provision of this Agreement, the Confidentiality Agreement (as defined below) or any other written agreement between Executive and the Company. 




provided, however, that no act or omission on the Executive’s part shall be considered “willful” if it is done by the Executive in good faith and with a reasonable belief that the Executive’s conduct was in the best interest of the Company, and provided, further, however, that no event or condition described in clauses (iv) or (v) shall constitute Cause unless (w) the Company gives the Executive written notice of termination of employment for Cause and the grounds for such termination within 180 days of the Board first becoming aware of the event giving rise to such Cause, (x) such grounds for termination are not corrected by the Executive within 30 days of the Executive’s receipt of such notice, (y) if the Executive fails to correct such event or condition, the Company gives the Executive at least 30 days’ prior written notice of a special Board meeting called to make a determination that the Executive should be terminated for Cause and the Executive and the Executive’s legal counsel are given the opportunity to address such meeting prior to a vote of the Board, and (z) a determination that Cause exists is made and approved by the Board.

(b)Change in Control Protected Period.  For purposes of this Agreement, “Change in Control Protected Period” shall mean the period beginning three months prior to a Change in Control and ending 12 months following a Change in Control.

(c)Change in Control.

5.Limitations on Severance Payment and Other Payments or Benefits

.

(a)Payments.  Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, if any portion of the severance payments or any other payment under this Agreement, or under any other agreement with the Executive or plan or arrangement of the Company or its affiliates (in the aggregate, “Total Payments”), would constitute an “excess parachute payment” and would, but for this Section 5, result in the imposition on the Executive of an excise tax under Code Section 4999 (the “Excise Tax”), then the Total Payments to be made to the Executive shall either be (i) delivered in full, or (ii) delivered in the greatest amount such that no portion of such Total Payments would be subject to the Excise Tax, whichever of the foregoing (i) or (ii) results in the receipt by the Executive of the greatest benefit on an after-tax basis (taking into account the Executive’s actual marginal rate of federal, state and local income taxation and the Excise Tax).

(b)Determinations.  Within 30 days following the Executive’s termination of employment or notice by one Party to the other of its belief that there is a payment or benefit due to the Executive that will result in an excess parachute payment, the Company, at the Company’s expense, shall select a nationally recognized certified public accounting firm or consulting firm (which may be the Company’s independent auditors) (“Consulting Firm”) reasonably acceptable to the Executive, to determine (i) the Base Amount (as defined below), (ii) the amount and present value of the Total Payments, (iii) the amount and present value of any excess parachute payments determined without regard to any reduction of Total Payments pursuant to Section 5(a), and (iv) the net after-tax proceeds to the Executive, taking into account the tax imposed under Code Section 4999 if (x) the Total Payments were reduced in accordance with Section 5(a), or (y) the Total Payments were not so reduced.  If the Consulting Firm determines that Section 5(a)(ii) above applies, then the payments upon the Executive’s termination of employment hereunder or any other payment or benefit determined by such Consulting Firm to be includable in Total Payments shall be reduced or eliminated so that there will be no excess parachute payment.  In such event, payments or benefits included in the Total Payments shall be reduced or eliminated by applying the following principles, in order:  (1) the payment or benefit with the later possible payment date shall be reduced or eliminated before a 

 



Exhibit 10.11

payment or benefit with an earlier payment date; and (2) cash payments shall be reduced prior to non-cash benefits; provided that if the foregoing order of reduction or elimination would violate Code Section 409A, then the reduction shall be made pro rata among the payments or benefits included in the Total Payments (on the basis of the relative present value of the parachute payments).

(c)Definitions and Assumptions.  For purposes of this Agreement:  (i) the terms “excess parachute payment” and “parachute payments” shall have the meanings assigned to them in Code Section 280G and such “parachute payments” shall be valued as provided therein; (ii) present value shall be calculated in accordance with Code Section 280G(d)(4); (iii) the term “Base Amount” means an amount equal to the Executive’s “annualized includible compensation for the base period” as defined in Code Section 280G(d)(1); (iv) for purposes of the determination by the Consulting Firm, the value of any non-cash benefits or any deferred payment or benefit shall be determined in accordance with the principles of Code Sections 280G(d)(3) and (4); and (v) the Executive shall be deemed to pay federal income tax and employment taxes at the Executive’s actual marginal rate of federal income and employment taxation, and state and local income taxes at the Executive’s actual marginal rate of taxation in the state or locality of the Executive’s domicile (determined in both cases in the calendar year in which the termination of employment or notice described in Section 5(b) above is given, whichever is earlier), net of the maximum reduction in federal income taxes that may be obtained from the deduction of such state and local taxes.  The covenants set forth in Sections 6 and 7 of this Agreement have substantial value to the Company and a portion of any Total Payments made to the Executive are in consideration of such covenants.  For purposes of calculating the “excess parachute payment” and the “parachute payments”, the Parties intend that an amount equal to not less than the Executive's highest annual base salary during the 12-month period immediately prior to the Executive’s termination of employment shall be in consideration of the covenants in Sections 6 and 7 below.  The Consulting Firm shall consider all relevant factors in appraising the fair value of such covenants and in determining the amount of the Total Payments that shall not be considered to be a “parachute payment” or “excess parachute payment”.  The determination of the Consulting Firm shall be addressed to the Company and the Executive and such determination shall be binding upon the Company and the Executive.

(d)Amendment.  This Section 5 shall be amended to comply with any changes to or successor provisions of Sections 280G or 4999 of the Code in a manner designed to result in Executive’s greatest benefit on an after-tax basis.

6.Confidentiality

.  The Executive previously entered into that certain Confidential Information and Invention Assignment Agreement between Tsunami Software, Inc., a Delaware corporation (and predecessor to the Company), and the Executive (the “Confidentiality Agreement”).  The Executive agrees (i) that the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement shall continue to apply in full force and effect and inure to the benefit of the Company and (ii) that the Executive shall continue to comply in all respects with the Confidentiality Agreement. 

7.Non-Solicitation

.  The Executive agrees that, during the Executive’s employment with the Company and for a period commencing on the Executive’s Separation from Service and ending on the first anniversary of the Executive’s Separation from Service (the 

 



Exhibit 10.11

“Restricted Period”), the Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, other than in connection with the proper performance of the Executive’s duties in the Executive’s capacity as an executive of the Company, (a) interfere with or attempt to interfere with any relationship between the Company Group and any of its employees, consultants, independent contractors, agents or representatives or (b) encourage, induce, attempt to induce, solicit or attempt to solicit any current or former employee, consultant, independent contractor, agent or representative of the Company Group in a business competitive with the Company Group to leave his, her or its employment or service with the Company Group.  As used herein, the term “indirectly” shall include, without limitation, the Executive’s grant of permission to use the Executive’s name by any competitor of any member of the Company Group to induce or interfere with any employee or any other service provider of any member of the Company Group.

8.Compensation Recovery Policy

.  The Executive acknowledges and agrees that, to the extent the Company adopts any clawback or similar policy in accordance with the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and any rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the Executive shall take all action necessary or appropriate to comply with such policy (including, without limitation, entering into any further agreements, amendments or policies necessary or appropriate to implement or enforce that policy).

9.Certain Remedies

.

(a)Injunctive Relief.  Without intending to limit the remedies available to the Company Group, the Executive agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in Sections 6 and 7 of this Agreement may result in material and irreparable injury to the Company Group for which there is no adequate remedy at law, that it will not be possible to measure damages for such injuries precisely and that, in the event of such a breach or threat thereof, any member of the Company Group shall be entitled to seek a temporary restraining order or a preliminary or permanent injunction, or both, without bond or other security, restraining the Executive from engaging in activities prohibited by the covenants contained in Sections 6 and 7 of this Agreement or such other relief as may be required specifically to enforce any of the covenants contained in this Agreement.  Such injunctive relief in any court shall be available to the Company Group in lieu of, or prior to or pending determination in, any arbitration proceeding.

(b)Extension of Restricted Period.  In addition to the remedies the Company may seek and obtain pursuant to this Section 9, the Restricted Period shall be extended by any and all periods during which the Executive shall be found by a court or arbitrator possessing personal jurisdiction over the Executive to have been in violation of the covenants contained in Section 7 of this Agreement.

10.Section 409A of the Code

.

(a)General.  This Agreement is intended to meet the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and shall be interpreted and construed consistent with that intent.

(b)Deferred Compensation.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the extent that the right to any payment (including the provision of benefits) 

 



Exhibit 10.11

hereunder provides for the “deferral of compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A(d)(1) of the Code, the payment shall be paid (or provided) in accordance with the following:


	
 
	
(i)
	
If the Executive is a “Specified Employee” within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code on the date of the Executive’s Separation from Service, then no such payment shall be made or commence during the period beginning on the date of the Executive’s Separation from Service and ending on the date that is six months following the Executive’s Separation from Service or, if earlier, on the date of the Executive’s death.  The amount of any payment that would otherwise be paid to the Executive during this period shall instead be paid to the Executive on the fifteenth day of the first calendar month following the end of the period.  





	
 
	
(ii)
	
Each amount to be paid or benefit to be provided under this Agreement shall be construed as a separate and distinct payment for purposes of Section 409A. 





	
 
	
(iii)
	
Payments with respect to reimbursements of expenses shall be made in accordance with Company policy and in no event later than the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the relevant expense is incurred.  The amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement during a calendar year may not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other calendar year.




11.Source of Payments

.  All payments provided under this Agreement, other than payments made pursuant to a plan which provides otherwise, shall be paid in cash from the general funds of the Company, and no special or separate fund shall be established, and no other segregation of assets shall be made, to assure payment.  To the extent that any person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company hereunder, such right shall be no greater than the right of an unsecured creditor of the Company.

12.Arbitration

.  Any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement or otherwise in connection with the Executive’s employment by the Company that cannot be mutually resolved by the Parties and their respective advisors and representatives shall be settled exclusively by arbitration in Santa Clara County, California in accordance with the commercial rules of the American Arbitration Association before one arbitrator of exemplary qualifications and stature, who shall be selected jointly by an individual to be designated by the Company and an individual to be selected by the Executive, or if such two individuals cannot agree on the selection of the arbitrator, who shall be selected by the American Arbitration Association, and judgment upon the award rendered may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereon.  Each Party shall bear its own attorney’s fees and expenses; provided that the arbitrator may assess the prevailing Party’s fees and costs against the non-prevailing Party as part of the arbitrator’s award.  The Parties agree to abide by all decisions and awards rendered in such proceedings.  Decisions and awards rendered by the arbitrator shall be final and conclusive.

13.Non-assignability; Binding Agreement

.

FORM OF RELEASE

This Release, dated as of _____________, (this “Release”) by and between [NAME] (the “Executive”) and Intapp, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”).

WHEREAS, the Executive and the Company are parties to an Employment Agreement, dated [●] (the “Employment Agreement”), which provided for the Executive’s employment on the terms and conditions specified therein; and

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 3(e) of the Employment Agreement, the Executive has agreed to execute and deliver a release and waiver of claims of the type and nature set forth herein as a condition to the Executive’s entitlement to certain payments and benefits upon the Executive’s termination of employment with the Company.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual promises herein contained and for other good and valuable consideration received or to be received in accordance with the terms of the Employment Agreement, the Executive and the Company agree as follows:


	
1.
	
Executive Waiver and Release




.

(a)The Executive waives any claims the Executive may have for employment by the Company.  Further, in consideration of the payments and benefits to be provided by the Company pursuant to the Employment Agreement, the Executive, on behalf of the Executive and the Executive’s heirs, executors, devisees, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Releasors”), knowingly and voluntarily releases, remises and forever discharges the Company and its parents, direct and indirect subsidiaries or affiliates, together with each of their current and former principals, officers, directors, shareholders, partners, agents, representatives and employees, and each of their heirs, executors, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Releasees”), from any and all debts, demands, actions, causes of action, accounts, covenants, contracts, agreements, claims, damages, omissions, promises and any and all claims and liabilities whatsoever, of every name and nature, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, both in law and equity (“Claims”), which the Releasors ever had, now have or may hereafter claim to have against the Releasees by reason of any matter or cause whatsoever relating to the Executive’s employment with the Company arising prior to the time the Executive signs this Release, expressly excluding claims as set forth below.  This paragraph 1(a) shall apply to any Claim of any type, including, without limitation, any and all Claims of any type that the Releasors may have arising under the common law, under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Civil Rights Act of 1991, the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, the Americans With Disabilities Act of 1967, the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, the California Fair Employment and Housing Act, the Unruh Civil Rights Act, the Moore-Brown-Roberti Family Rights Act, the California Constitution, any applicable California Industrial Welfare Commission Wage Order and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, each as amended, and any other federal, state, local or foreign statutes, regulations, ordinances or common law, or under any policy, agreement, contract, understanding or promise, written or oral, formal or informal, between any of the Releasees and 

 



 

the Executive, and shall further apply, without limitation, to any and all Claims in connection with, related to or arising out of the Executive’s employment relationship, or the termination of the Executive’s employment, with the Company.

(b)Further, the Executive waives all rights pertaining to or arising out of the Executive’s employment relationship with the Company under California Civil Code Section 1542, which provides:

A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS THAT THE CREDITOR OR RELEASING PARTY DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE AND THAT, IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, WOULD HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR OR RELEASED PARTY.

(c)For the purpose of implementing a full and complete release, the Executive understands and agrees that this Release is intended to include all claims, if any, which the Releasors may have and which the Executive does not now know or suspect to exist in the Executive’s favor against the Releasees, from the beginning of time until the time the Executive signs this Release, and this Release extinguishes those claims.

(d)In consideration of the promises of the Company set forth in the Employment Agreement, the Executive hereby further releases and discharges the Releasees from any and all Claims that the Executive may have against the Releasees arising under the Age Discrimination Employment Act of 1967, as amended, and the applicable rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (“ADEA”).  The Executive acknowledges that the Executive understands that ADEA is a federal statute that prohibits discrimination on the basis of age in employment, benefits and benefit plans.  The Executive also understands that, by signing this Release, The Executive is waiving all Claims against any and all of the Releasees.

(e)Notwithstanding anything in the Employment Agreement or this Release to the contrary, this Release shall not apply to and neither the Executive nor any other Releasor waives and/or releases (i) any rights to accrued and vested benefits under the employee benefit plans of the Company; (ii) any severance payments or other rights and/or payments due under the terms of the Employment Agreement; (iii) any right the Executive may have to indemnification pursuant to the by-laws, other corporate documents or a directors & officers or other insurance policy; and/or (iv) any other rights under this Release.

(f)Capitalized words not otherwise defined herein have the meanings assigned thereto in the Employment Agreement.

(g)The Executive understands and acknowledges that the Executive has the right under U.S. federal law to certain protections for cooperating with or reporting legal violations to the SEC and/or its Office of the Whistleblower, as well as certain other governmental entities.  No provisions in this Release are intended to prohibit the Executive from disclosing this Release to, or from cooperating with or reporting violations to, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the SEC or any other such governmental entity, and 

 



 

Executive may do so without disclosure to the Company.  The Company may not retaliate against the Executive for any of these activities.  Further, nothing in this Release precludes the Executive from filing a Charge of Discrimination with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or a like charge or complaint with a state or local fair employment practice agency.  However, once this Release becomes effective, the Executive understands and acknowledges that the Executive may not receive a monetary award or any other form of personal relief from the Company in connection with any such charge or complaint that the Executive filed or is filed on the Executive’s behalf.

(h)The Executive understands and acknowledges that the Executive will not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state law for any disclosure of a trade secret that:  (i) is made in confidence to a federal, state or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney, where such disclosure is solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (ii) is made in a complaint or other document that is filed under seal in a lawsuit or other proceeding.  If the Executive files a lawsuit for retaliation by the Company for reporting a suspected violation of law, the Executive may disclose the Company’s trade secrets to the Executive’s attorney and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding if the Executive files any document containing the trade secret under seal and does not disclose the trade secret except pursuant to court order.

(i)By executing this Release, the Executive hereby agrees that neither the Executive nor any other Releasor will initiate, maintain or join any proceeding in any judicial forum relating to any matters covered by this Release.  The Executive represents that neither the Executive nor any other Releasor has initiated, maintained or joined any such proceeding as of the date of this Release.
