The
stock units will vest in accordance with this schedule so long as you provide continuous Service. "Service" means service as an Employee, Outside Director or Consultant of the
Company (as these terms are defined in the Plan).

This
award will fully vest upon a Termination Event, consisting of a Change in Control (as defined in Exhibit A) in which the acquiring or surviving entity fails within ten days
prior to the closing thereof to make a written offer to you of continued employment for a period of at least one year that is located within 20 miles of your present location and has equal or greater:
(i) responsibilities, title, and reporting relationship in the surviving entity and parent; (ii) total compensation (including salary, bonus and equity incentives); and
(iii) office and support arrangements and staff. As a condition of any such acceleration, you and Liberate will sign a mutual waiver of claims (as set forth in the Employee Retention Agreement
between the parties) at the time of the acceleration.

As
a condition of such accelerated vesting, you agree to sign a mutual release of claims against Liberate (upon terms set forth in the Employee Retention Agreement between the parties)
as to any claims that may have arisen prior to the date of the acceleration.

You
and the Company agree that these units are granted under and governed by the terms and conditions of the Liberate Technologies 1999 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (the "Plan"),
and the Stock Unit Agreement, both of which are attached to and made a part of this document.

You
further agree that the Company may deliver by email all documents relating to the Plan or this award (including, without limitation, prospectuses required by the Securities and
Exchange Commission) and all other documents that the Company is required to deliver to its security holders (including, without limitation, annual reports and proxy statements). You also agree that
the Company may deliver these documents by posting them on a web site maintained by the Company or by a third party under contract with the Company. If the Company posts these documents on a web site,
it will notify you by email.

FORM OF STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT

|Payment for Units             |  | No payment is required for the units that you are receiving.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      
|----------------------------- |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|Vesting                       |  | The units vest in installments, as shown in the Notice of Stock Unit Award. The vesting of the award will accelerate under certain circumstances as specified in the Notice of Stock Unit Award.                                                                                                                                                                                                                  
|Settlement of Units           |  | Each of your units will be settled when it vests, unless the Company has approved a later settlement date in writing.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             
|                              |  | At the time of settlement, you will receive one share of the Company's Common Stock for each vested unit. But the Company, at its sole discretion, may substitute an equivalent amount of cash if the distribution of stock is not reasonably practicable
due to the requirements of applicable law. The amount of cash will be based on the market value of the Company's Common Stock at the time of settlement.
|                              |  | You understand and agree that it will usually require at least 2-3 business days following each vesting date for the Company's transfer agent and your broker to deposit the shares to your brokerage account, and you may not be able to sell the shares
until they have been deposited.                                                                                                                         
|Nature of Units               |  | Your units are bookkeeping entries. They represent only the Company's unfunded and unsecured promise to issue shares of Common Stock or distribute cash on a future date. As a holder of units, you have no rights other than the rights of a general
creditor of the Company.                                                                                                                                    
|No Voting Rights or Dividends |  | Your units carry neither voting rights nor rights to cash or other dividends. You have no rights as a stockholder of the Company unless and until your units are settled by issuing shares of the Company's Common Stock.                                                                                                                                                                                         
|Units Nontransferable         |  | You may not sell, transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise dispose of any units. For instance, you may not use your units as security for a loan.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    
|                              |  |

|Withholding Taxes                    |  | No stock certificates or cash will be distributed to you unless you have made arrangements acceptable to the Company to pay any withholding taxes that may be due as a result of the settlement of this award. At your option, and with the Company's
consent, these arrangements may include (a) withholding shares of Company stock that otherwise would be issued to you when the units are settled, (b) surrendering shares that you previously acquired, (c) the payment of withholding
taxes from the proceeds of an approved sale of shares through a Company-approved broker, if available, or (d) your delivery of a check to the Company. The fair market value of these shares, determined as of the date when taxes otherwise would
have been withheld in cash, will be applied against the withholding taxes. Unless you elect an arrangement by providing written notice to the Company, the Company may, at its option, choose to withhold shares that would otherwise be issued to you in
order to satisfy withholding tax obligations.

|                                     |  | For purposes of determining the withholding taxes, if any, to be withheld upon settlement of this award, the fair market value of the stock shall be based upon the closing price of the Company's common stock on the last trading day prior to each
vesting date.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    
|Restrictions on Resale               |  | You agree not to sell any shares at a time when applicable laws prohibit a sale.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       
|                                     |  | You further agree not to sell any shares when any Company policies or an agreement between the Company and its underwriters prohibit a sale. This restriction will apply as long as your Service continues and for such period of time after the
termination of your Service as the Company may specify.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               
|No Retention Rights                  |  | Your award or this Agreement does not give you the right to be retained by the Company or a subsidiary of the Company in any capacity. The Company and its subsidiaries reserve the right to terminate your Service at any time, with or without
cause.

extent that judicial review is required by law. The American Arbitration Association's National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes will govern the arbitration, except that the arbitrator will allow discovery authorized by the California
Arbitration Act and any additional discovery necessary to vindicate a claim or defense. The arbitrator may award any remedy that would be available from a court of law. You may choose to hold the arbitration either in San Mateo County, California or

EXHIBIT A    DEFINITION OF "CHANGE IN CONTROL"

"Change
in Control" means:



A
transaction shall not constitute a Change in Control if its sole purpose is to change the state of Liberate's incorporation or to create a holding company that will be owned in
substantially the same proportions by the persons who held Liberate's securities immediately before such transaction. A transaction shall not automatically be deemed a Change in Control if it
constitutes a stock repurchase or similar action initiated by Liberate that results in Oracle Corporation or its affiliates owning at least 50% of the total voting power represented by Liberate's then
outstanding voting securities unless Liberate's Board or Compensation Committee determines that such a transaction constitutes a Change in Control.

"Parent"
means any corporation (other than Liberate) in an unbroken chain of corporations ending with Liberate, if each of the corporations other than Liberate owns stock possessing 50%
or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock in one of the other corporations in such chain. A corporation that attains the status of a Parent on a date after the effective date
of this Agreement shall be considered a Parent commencing as of such date.

"Subsidiary"
means any corporation (other than Liberate) in an unbroken chain of corporations beginning with Liberate, if each of the corporations other than the last corporation in the
unbroken chain owns stock possessing 50% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock in one of the other corporations in such chain. A corporation that attains the status of a
Subsidiary on a date after the effective date of this Agreement shall be considered a Subsidiary commencing as of such date.
