1, the period beginning on the date of automatic renewal and ending on the second anniversary of the date of automatic renewal, notwithstanding any earlier termination pursuant to Paragraph 8(a) or (b) or otherwise.

2. Duties. You agree to devote your entire business time, attention and energies to the business of Blockbuster and its subsidiaries
during your employment. You will be Senior Vice President, US Controller of Blockbuster, and you agree to perform all duties reasonable and consistent with that or such comparable office as the EVP, Finance, Strategic Planning & Development
of Blockbuster or other individual designated by the Chief Executive Officer (the CEO) of Blockbuster may assign to you from time to time.

3. Compensation.

in any capacity under this Agreement, Blockbuster agrees to pay you eighteen thousand, three hundred thirty-three dollars and thirty-three cents ($18,333.33) a month in base salary (Salary), less applicable deductions and withholding
taxes, in accordance with Blockbusters payroll practices as they may exist from time to time.

4. Benefits. You will participate in such vacation, medical, dental, life
insurance, long-term disability insurance, 401(k), long-term incentive and other plans as Blockbuster may have or establish from time to time and in which you would be entitled to participate under the terms of the plan. This provision, however,
will not be construed to either require Blockbuster to establish any welfare, compensation or long-term incentive plans, or to prevent the modification or termination of any plan once established, and no action or inaction with respect to any plan
will affect this Agreement.

5. Business Expenses; Car Allowance and Insurance. During your employment under this
Agreement, Blockbuster will reimburse you for such reasonable travel and other expenses incurred in the performance of your duties consistent with Blockbusters then applicable expense reimbursement policies for Blockbuster executives at
comparable position levels. You will receive a car allowance and car insurance for one (1) vehicle in accordance with Blockbusters policies, as same may be amended from time to time.

6. Non-Competition, Confidential Information, Etc.

(a) Non-Competition. You agree that your employment with Blockbuster is on an exclusive basis and that, while you are employed by Blockbuster, you will not engage in any other business activity
which is in conflict with your duties and obligations (including your commitment of time) under this Agreement. You agree that, during the Non-Compete Period (as defined below), you will not directly or indirectly engage in or participate as an
owner, partner, stockholder, officer, employee, director, agent of or consultant for any Blockbuster Competitor (as defined below) and will perform no services for a Blockbuster Competitor similar to any services performed for Blockbuster;
provided, however, that this provision will not prevent you from investing as less than a one (1%) percent stockholder in the securities of any company listed on a national securities exchange or quoted on an automated quotation
system. The Non-Compete Period will cover the entire Term plus the longer of any period after the Term for which you receive payments pursuant to Paragraph 8(c)(i) or one (1) year. A Blockbuster Competitor is any business entity which engages
in the acquisition, aggregation, or delivery of audio or video entertainment, including but not limited to the rental, sale, or trading of video, DVD, or other movie product, equipment, or video games, either (i) in electronic, digital, or
internet commerce, or (ii) in one or more geographic areas where Blockbuster has its operations (or is engaged in real estate site selection or has taken other steps toward the commencement of operations), either alone or in association with
another entity. In every case, the good faith judgment of Blockbuster will be conclusive as to whether a business entity constitutes a Blockbuster Competitor. You agree that this non-compete covenant is ancillary to an otherwise enforceable
agreement, including but not limited to the confidentiality covenant and the payment provisions in Paragraph 3.

(b)
Confidential Information. You agree that, during the Term and at any time thereafter, (i) you will not (a) use for any purpose other than the duly authorized business of Blockbuster conducted in the course of your employment at
Blockbuster or, (b) disclose to any third party, any business information, technological information, intellectual property, trade secrets and other information belonging to Blockbuster or any of its affiliated companies or relating to
Blockbusters business, technology, or customers (Confidential Information), including, without limitation, any written (including in any electronic form) or oral communication incorporating Confidential Information in any way; and
(ii) you will comply with any and all confidentiality obligations of Blockbuster to a third party, whether arising under a written agreement or otherwise. Information will not be deemed Confidential Information which (x) is or becomes
generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by you or at your direction or by any other person who directly or indirectly receives such information from you, or (y) is or becomes available to you on a
non-confidential basis from a source which is entitled to disclose it to you.

(c) No Employee Solicitation. You agree
that, during the Term and for one (1) year thereafter, you will not, directly or indirectly, engage, employ or solicit the employment or consulting services of any person who is then or has been within six (6) months prior to the time of
such action, an employee of Blockbuster or any of its affiliated companies.

accrue to Blockbuster under the preceding sentence, then you hereby irrevocably assign and agree to assign any and all of your rights, title and interest thereto, including, without limitation, any and all copyrights, patents, trade secrets,
trademarks, and/or other rights of every nature in the work, whether known or hereafter defined or discovered, and Blockbuster will have the right to use the work in perpetuity throughout the universe in any manner Blockbuster determines in its sole
discretion without any further payment to you. You will, as may be requested by Blockbuster from time to time, do any and all things which Blockbuster may deem useful or desirable to establish or document Blockbusters rights in any such
results and proceeds, including, without limitation, the execution of appropriate copyright, trademark and/or patent applications, assignments or similar documents and, if you are unavailable or unwilling to execute such documents, you hereby
irrevocably designate the CEO or his designee as your attorney-in-fact with the power to execute such documents on your behalf. To the extent you have any rights in the results and proceeds of your services under this Agreement that cannot be
assigned as described above, you unconditionally and irrevocably waive the enforcement of such rights. This Paragraph 6(d) is subject to, and does not limit, restrict, or constitute a waiver by Blockbuster or any of its affiliated companies of any
ownership rights to which Blockbuster or any of its affiliated companies may be entitled by operation of law by virtue of being your employer.

(e) Litigation. You agree that, during the Term and the pendancy of any litigation or other proceeding, and at any time thereafter, (i) you will not communicate with anyone (other than your
own attorneys or tax advisors), except to the extent necessary in the performance of your duties under this Agreement, with respect to the facts or subject matter of any pending or potential litigation, or regulatory or administrative proceeding
involving Blockbuster or any of Blockbusters affiliated companies, other than any litigation or other proceeding in which you are a party-in-opposition, without giving prior notice to Blockbuster or Blockbusters counsel; and (ii) in
the event that any other party attempts to obtain information or documents from you with respect to matters possibly related to such litigation or other proceeding, you will promptly notify Blockbusters counsel before providing such
information or documents.

(f) No Right to Give Interviews, Write Books, or Articles. During the Term and at any time
thereafter, except as authorized by Blockbuster, you will not (i) give any interviews or speeches, or (ii) prepare or assist any person or entity in the preparation of any books, articles, television or motion picture productions or other
creations, in either case, concerning Blockbuster or any of its affiliated companies or any of their respective officers, directors, agents, employees, suppliers or customers.

(g) Return of Property. All documents, data, recordings, or other property, whether tangible or intangible, including all information
stored in electronic form, obtained or prepared by or for you and utilized by you in the course of your employment with Blockbuster or any of its affiliated companies, will remain the exclusive property of Blockbuster. In the event of the

employment for any reason, Blockbuster reserves the right, to the extent permitted by law and in addition to any other remedy Blockbuster may have, to deduct from any monies otherwise payable to
you the following: (i) all amounts you may owe to Blockbuster or any of its affiliated companies at the time of or subsequent to the termination of your employment with Blockbuster, and (ii) the value of the Blockbuster property which you
retain in your possession after the termination of your employment with Blockbuster. In the event that the law of any state or other jurisdiction requires the consent of any employee for such deductions, this Agreement will serve as such consent.

(h) Non-Disparagement. You agree that, during the Term and at any time thereafter, you will not, in any communications
with the press or other media or any customer, client or supplier of Blockbuster or any of its affiliated companies, criticize, ridicule or make any statement which disparages or is derogatory of Blockbuster or any of its affiliated companies or any
of their respective directors or officers.

(i) Injunctive Relief. Blockbuster has entered into this Agreement in order
to obtain the benefit of your unique skills, talent, and experience. You acknowledge and agree that any violation of paragraphs 6(a) through (h) of this Agreement will result in irreparable damage to Blockbuster, and, accordingly, Blockbuster
shall be entitled to obtain injunctive and other equitable relief for any breach or threatened breach of such paragraphs, in addition to any other remedies available to Blockbuster.

the entire period provided therein notwithstanding the termination of your employment for any reason or the expiration of the Term. You and Blockbuster agree that the restrictions and remedies contained in paragraphs 6(a) through (i) are
reasonable and that it is your intention and the intention of Blockbuster that such restrictions and remedies will be enforceable to the fullest extent permissible by law. If a court of competent jurisdiction will find that any such restriction or
remedy is unenforceable but would be enforceable if some part were deleted or the period or area of application reduced, then such restriction or remedy will apply with the modification necessary to make it enforceable.

7. Disability. If you become disabled within the meaning of such term under Blockbusters
Short-Term Disability (STD) program and its Long-Term Disability (LTD) program during the Term (such condition is referred to as a Disability), you will receive compensation under the STD program for the first

GENERAL RELEASE AND WAIVER OF CLAIMS

a. Release of Claims. As consideration by you, you agree on behalf of yourself, successors and assigns, to release and forever
discharge Blockbuster and its subsidiaries, parent and affiliated companies, employees, officers and directors, and their respective assigns, from any and all manner of claims, debts, demands, damages, liabilities and causes of action, whether known
or unknown, from the beginning of time, which you, or your successors and assigns, may have had or may presently have, relating to or arising out of the employment relationship or the termination of said relationship including, but not limited to,
causes of action for libel, slander, breach of contract, impairment of economic opportunity, intentional infliction of emotional distress or any other tort, or claims under federal, state, or local constitutions, statutes, regulations, ordinances or
common law, including, but not limited to, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974; the Civil Rights Acts of 1866, 1871, 1964 and 1991; the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, as amended by the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act of
1990; the Rehabilitation Act of 1973; the Equal Pay Act of 1963; and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990. You acknowledge and agree that you have been paid all wages owed to you and that you have received all leave to which you are entitled.
You understand that you are not waiving any right under the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act to test the knowing and voluntary nature of this General Release and Waiver of Claims in court.

b. Post-Release Claims. You do not waive any rights or claims that may arise after the date this Release is executed.

c. No Admission. Nothing contained in this Release constitutes an admission of liability by Blockbuster concerning any aspect of your
employment with or separation from Blockbuster.

d. Confidentiality. You acknowledge that, during the course of the
employment relationship, you were privy to confidential and proprietary business information belonging to Blockbuster, the unauthorized disclosure of which could cause serious and irreparable injury to Blockbuster and its affiliates. The information
includes, but is not limited to, information concerning existing and prospective expansion plans; existing and potential financing sources and arrangements; existing and prospective marketing plans and activities; proprietary computer software
programs and applications; business plans and strategies and other non-public information. You agree to hold and safeguard the confidential information in trust for Blockbuster, its successors and assigns, and agree that you will not, at any time,

you, or is or becomes available to you on a non-confidential basis from a source which is entitled to disclose it to you.
