(b) Discounts, Rebates or Commissions. Unless expressly permitted by
written policies and procedures of the Company in effect from time to time that may be applicable to the Employee, neither the Employee nor any immediate family member will be entitled to receive or obtain directly or indirectly any discount, rebate
or commission in respect of any sale or purchase of goods or services effected or other business transacted (whether or not by the Employee) by or on behalf of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, and if the Employee or any
immediate family member (or any firm or company in which the Employee or any immediate family member is interested) obtains any such discount, rebate or commission, the Employee will pay to the Company an amount equal to the amount so received (or
the proportionate amount received by any such firm or company to the extent of the Employees or family members interest therein).

6. Term; Termination.

(a) Unless sooner terminated pursuant to the provisions of this Section 6, the term of this Agreement (the
Term) will commence on the date hereof and end on November 29, 2012.

(b) Voluntary
Termination by the Employee. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Employee may voluntarily Terminate this Agreement by providing the Company with ninety (90) days advance written notice (Voluntary
Termination), in which case, the Employee will not be entitled to receive payment of any severance benefits or other amounts by reason of the Termination other than accrued salary and vacation through the date of the Termination. The
Employees right to all other benefits will terminate as of the date of Termination, other than any continuation required by applicable law. Without limiting the foregoing, if, in connection with a Change in Control, the surviving entity or
successor to Sohus business offers the Employee employment on substantially equivalent terms to those set forth in this Agreement and such offer is not accepted by the Employee, the refusal by the Employee to accept such offer and the
subsequent termination of the Employees employment by the Company shall be deemed to be a voluntary termination of employment by the Employee and shall not be treated as a termination by the Company without Cause.

(c) Termination by the Company for Cause. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company may
Terminate this Agreement for Cause by written notice to the Employee, effective immediately upon the delivery of such notice. In such case, the Employee will not be entitled to receive payment of any severance benefits or other amounts by reason of
the Termination other than accrued salary and vacation through the date of the Termination. The Employees right to all other benefits will terminate, other than any continuation required by applicable law.

---

(d) Termination by the Employee with Good Reason or Termination by the
Company without Cause. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Employee may Terminate this Agreement for Good Reason, and the Company may Terminate this Agreement without Cause, in either case upon thirty (30) days
advance written notice by the party Terminating this Agreement to the other party and the Termination shall be effective as of the expiration of such thirty (30) day period. If the Employee Terminates with Good Reason or the Company Terminates
without Cause, the Employee will be entitled to continue to receive payment of severance benefits equal to the Employees monthly base salary in effect on the date of Termination for the shorter of (i) six (6) months and (ii) the
remainder of the Term of this Agreement (the Severance Period), provided that the Employee complies with the Employee Obligations Agreement during the Severance Period and executes a release agreement in the form requested by the Company
at the time of such Termination that releases the Company from any and all claims arising from or related to the employment relationship and/or such Termination. Such payments will be made ratably over the Severance Period according to the
Companys standard payroll schedule. The Employee will also receive payment of the bonus for the remainder of the year of the Termination, but only to the extent that the bonus would have been earned had the Employee continued in employment
through the end of such year, as determined in good faith by the Companys CEO, Board of Directors or its Compensation Committee based on the specific corporate and individual performance targets established for such fiscal year, and only to
the extent that bonuses are paid for such fiscal year to other similarly situated employees. Health insurance benefits with the same coverage provided to the Employee prior to the Termination and in all other material respects comparable to those in
place immediately prior to the Termination will be provided at the Companys expense during the Severance Period. The Company will also continue to carry the Employee on its Directors and Officers insurance policy for six (6) years
following the Date of Termination at the Companys expense with respect to insurable events which occurred during the Employees term as a director or officer of the Company, with such coverage being at least comparable to that in effect
immediately prior to the Termination Date; provided, however, that (i) such terms, conditions and exceptions will not be, in the aggregate, materially less favorable to the Employee than those in effect on the Termination Date and (ii) if
the aggregate annual premiums for such insurance at any time during such period exceed two hundred percent (200%) of the per annum rate of premium currently paid by the Company for such insurance, then the Company will provide the maximum
coverage that is then available at an annual premium equal to two hundred percent (200%) of such rate.

(e) Termination by Reason of Death or Disability. A Termination of the Employees employment by reason of
death or Disability shall not be deemed to be a Termination by the Company (for or without Cause) or by the Employee (for or without Good Reason). In the event that the Employees employment with the Company Terminates as a result of the
Employees death or Disability, the Employee or the Employees estate or representative, as applicable, will receive all accrued salary and accrued vacation as of the date of the Employees death or Disability and any other benefits
payable under the Companys then existing benefit plans and policies in accordance with such plans and policies in effect on the date of death or Disability and in accordance with applicable law. In addition, the Employee or the Employees
estate or representative, as applicable, will receive the bonus for the year in which the death or Disability occurs to the extent that a bonus would have been earned had the Employee continued in employment through the end of such year, as
determined in good faith by the Companys CEO, Board of Directors or Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors based on the specific corporate and individual performance targets established for such fiscal year, and only to the extent
that bonuses are paid for such fiscal year to other similarly situated employees.

(f) Misconduct After Termination of Employment. Notwithstanding the
foregoing or anything herein to the contrary, if the Employee after the termination of his or her employment violates or fails to fully comply with the Employee Obligations Agreement, thereafter (1) the Employee shall not be entitled to any
payments from the Company, (2) any insurance or other benefits that have continued shall terminate immediately, (3) the Employee shall promptly reimburse to the Company all amounts that have been paid to the Employee pursuant to this
Section 6; and (4) if the Employee would not, in the absence of such violation or failure to comply, have been entitled to severance payments from the Company equal to at least six (6) months base salary, pay to the Company an
amount equal to the difference between six (6) months base salary and the amount of severance pay measured by base salary reimbursed to the Company by the Employee pursuant to clause 3 of this sentence.

7. Share-Based Compensation-Related Provisions.

(a) Termination by the Company Without Cause after a Change in Control. If Company Terminates this Agreement
without Cause within twelve (12) months following a Change in Control, the vesting and exercisability of each of the Employees outstanding stock options, restricted stock units or other share-based incentive awards (Awards)
will accelerate such that the Award will become fully vested and exercisable upon the effectiveness of the Termination, and any repurchase right of the Company with respect to shares of stock issued upon exercise of the Award will completely lapse,
in each case subject to paragraph (c) below (Forfeiture of Options for Misconduct).

(b)
Termination other than by the Company Without Cause after a Change in Control. If the Employees employment with the Company Terminates for any reason, unless the Company Terminates this Agreement without Cause within twelve
(12) months following a Change in Control, the vesting and exercisability of each of the Employees outstanding Awards shall cease upon the effectiveness of the Termination, such that any unvested Award shall be cancelled.

(c) Forfeiture of Options for Misconduct. If the Employee fails to comply with the terms of this Agreement, the
Employee Obligations Agreement, or the written policies and procedures of the Company, as the same may be amended from time to time, or acts against the specific instructions of the Board of Directors of the Company or if this Agreement is
terminated by the Company for Cause (each a Penalty Breach), the Employee will forfeit any Awards that have been granted to him or her or to which the Employee may be entitled, whether the same are then vested or not, and the same
shall thereafter not be exercisable at all, and all shares of common stock of the Company, if any, purchased by the Employee pursuant to the exercise of Awards and still then owned by the Employee may be repurchased by the Company, at its sole
discretion, at the price paid by the Employee for such shares of common stock. The terms of all outstanding option grants are hereby amended to conform with this provision.

8. Employee Obligations Agreement. By signing this Agreement, the Employee hereby agrees to execute and deliver to
the Company the Employee Obligations Agreement, and such execution and delivery shall be a condition to the Employees entitlement to his or her rights under this Agreement.

a citizen of the PRC, in each case exclusive of such jurisdictions principles of conflicts of law. If, under the applicable law, any portion of this Agreement is at any time deemed to be in conflict with any applicable statute, rule,
regulation or ordinance, such portion will be deemed to be modified or altered to conform thereto or, if that is not possible, to be omitted from this Agreement; the invalidity of any such portion will not affect the force, effect and validity of
the remaining portion hereof. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably (i) agrees that any dispute or controversy arising out of, relating to, or concerning any interpretation, construction, performance or breach of this Agreement, shall be
settled by arbitration to be held in Hong Kong under the UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules in accordance with the HKIAC Procedures for the Administration of International Arbitration in force at the date of this Agreement (the Arbitration

arbitrators decision in any court having jurisdiction. The parties to the arbitration shall each pay an equal share of the costs and expenses of such arbitration, and each party shall separately pay for its respective counsel fees and
expenses; provided, however, that the prevailing party in any such arbitration shall be entitled to recover from the non-prevailing party its reasonable costs and attorney fees.

request or SOHU, I will execute all documents and perform all lawful acts that SOHU considers necessary or advisable to secure its rights hereunder and to carry out the intent of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, I
agree to render to SOHU or its nominee all reasonable assistance as may be required:



| | (a) | In the prosecution or applications for letters patent, foreign and domestic, or re-issues, extensions and continuations thereof;

The reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by me in rendering such assistance at the request of SOHU will be reimbursed by SOHU. If I am no longer an employee of SOHU at the time I render such assistance, SOHU will pay me a reasonable fee for my time.

reason, or at any time upon SOHUs request, I will return to SOHU all Work Product and Confidential Information and notes, memoranda, records, customer lists, proposals, business plans and other documents, computer software, materials, tools,
equipment and other property in my possession or under my control, relating to any work done for SOHU, or otherwise belonging to SOHU, it being acknowledged that all such items are the sole property of SOHU. Further, before obtaining my final
paycheck, I agree to sign a certificate stating the following:

Termination Certificate

8. General Provisions.

(a) This Agreement contains the entire agreement between me and SOHU with respect to the subject matter hereof and
supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements and understandings related to the subject matter hereof, whether written or oral. This Agreement may not be modified except by written agreement signed by SOHU and me.

(b) This Agreement will be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York if
the Employee is not a citizen of the Peoples Republic of China (the PRC), and in accordance with the laws of the PRC if the Employee is a citizen of the PRC, in each case exclusive of such jurisdictions principles of
conflicts of law. If, under the applicable law, any portion of this Agreement is at any time deemed to be in conflict with any applicable statute, rule, regulation or ordinance, such portion will be deemed to be modified or altered to conform
thereto or, if that is not possible, to be omitted from this Agreement; the invalidity of any such portion will not affect the force, effect and validity of the remaining portion hereof. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably (i) agrees that
any dispute or controversy arising out of, relating to, or concerning any interpretation, construction, performance or breach of this Agreement, shall be settled by arbitration to be held in Hong Kong under the UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules in
accordance with the HKIAC Procedures for the Administration of International Arbitration in force at the date of this Agreement (the Arbitration Rules), (ii) waives, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so, any
objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such arbitration, and (iii) submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of Hong Kong in any such arbitration. There shall be one arbitrator, selected in accordance with the
Arbitration Rules. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final, conclusive and binding on the parties to the arbitration. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrators decision in any court having jurisdiction. The parties to the arbitration
shall each pay an equal share of the costs and expenses of such arbitration, and each party shall separately pay for its respective counsel fees and expenses; provided, however, that the prevailing party in any such arbitration shall be entitled to
recover from the non-prevailing party its reasonable costs and attorney fees.

(c) In the event that any
provision of this Agreement is determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable by reason of its extending for too great a period of time, over too large a geographic area, over too great a range of activities, it will be
interpreted to extend only over the maximum period of time, geographic area or range of activities as to which it may be enforceable.

(d) If, after application of paragraph (c) above, any provision of this Agreement will be determined to be invalid,
illegal or otherwise unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the other provisions of this Agreement will not be affected thereby. Any invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision of this
Agreement will be severed, and after any such severance, all other provisions hereof will remain in full force and effect.

(e) SOHU and I agree that either of us may waive or fail to enforce violations of any part of this Agreement without
waiving the right in the future to insist on strict compliance with all or parts of this Agreement.

(f) My obligations under this Agreement will survive the termination of my
employment with SOHU regardless of the manner of or reasons for such termination, and regardless of whether such termination constitutes a breach of any other agreement I may have with SOHU. My obligations under this Agreement will be binding upon
my heirs, executors and administrators, and the provisions of this Agreement will inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of SOHU.

(g) I agree and acknowledge that the rights and obligations set forth in this Agreement are of a unique and special
nature and necessary to ensure the preservation, protection and continuity of SOHUs business, employees, Confidential Information, and intellectual property rights. Accordingly, SOHU is without an adequate legal remedy in the event of my
violation of any of the covenants set forth in this Agreement. I agree, therefore, that, in addition to all other rights and remedies, at law or in equity or otherwise, that may be available to SOHU, each of the covenants made by me under this
Agreement shall be enforceable by injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief, without any requirement that SOHU have to post a bond or that SOHU have to prove any damages.
