Re:    Offer of Employment


Dear Joanna:


We are pleased to extend this offer to you to join Internap Corporation as our VP, Corporate Controller & Chief Accounting Officer beginning on Monday, January 8, 2017.  In this position, you will report to me. You will be based in our Secaucus, New Jersey office, with an expectation that you will travel to Atlanta on a regular basis for at least your first year of employment. We are excited that you have chosen to become part of our highly motivated team and believe you will become a key player in INAP’s success.


		
	•
	You will receive a starting base salary of $7,692.31 ($200,000 on an annualized basis) per pay-period less payroll deductions and all required withholdings.  You will also be subject to review through our performance evaluation process.




		
	•
	You will be eligible to participate in the INAP 2018 Short Term Incentive Plan (“Incentive Plan”). Any payments that may be made to you will be based on INAP’s achievement of goals approved by the Board of Directors.  Your initial bonus opportunity under the Incentive Plan will be 35% of your 2018 actual earned base salary, subject to the terms of the Incentive Plan.




		
	•
	You will be eligible for an annual Equity Award equal to 100% of your base salary at the discretion of the Compensation Committee and based on performance.  The Equity Award may be in the form or restricted stock or options and will be subject to a three-year vest; 50% of the grant will be subject to time, and 50% will be subject to performance as part of the Compensation Committee’s approve metrics which are to be determined.




All vesting is subject to you being an employee in good standing on each date of vesting.  All shares are governed by the language in our incentive stock plan (a copy of which will be mailed to you separately) as well as the actual grant documents which define the specific terms of your grant. You will be subject to INAP’s Insider Trading Policy. 


		
	•
	Should your employment with the Company be terminated due to reasons other than cause and provided that you satisfy the conditions of the Release Agreement, you will be eligible for three months of Severance Pay.  In the event of a change of control of the Company and where no position is available, you will be eligible for six months of Severance Pay payable over the six-month period with normal payroll cycle.




		
	•
	You will be eligible to participate in the benefits we offer generally to our employees.  A benefit summary is included in your new hire packet.




Although we hope that your relationship with INAP will be a long and productive one, we are not requiring a commitment from you for a particular length of time. Your employment with INAP will be “at will” meaning that you may choose to resign at any time for any reason, and INAP may choose to end your employment at any time for any reason. This offer should not be construed as creating a contract of employment for a 


One Ravinia Drive  |  Suite 1300  |   Atlanta, GA 30346  |  www.inap.com







specific period of time and the at will nature of your employment can only be changed by a written employment agreement signed by you and INAP’s Chief Executive Officer. 


INAP is required to verify the identity and employment authorization of all new hires. To comply with this legal obligation, we must complete an Employment Eligibility Verification Form I-9 within three days of your start date. Information about what you will need to bring to work with you to complete this form will be provided to you once you sign and return this offer letter. This offer is also contingent upon successful completion of a background check. 




You must also sign the attached Employment Covenants Agreement and certify you have read and agree to be bound by the INAP Code of Conduct included in your new hire packet.


Joanna, again, we look forward to working with you as part of the INAP team. Please sign and date this letter, and return it to the Human Resources Department before your start date.




Sincerely,





Bob Dennerlein
Chief Financial Officer




I accept the offer of employment contained in this letter and hereby agree that I have read and understand the statements contained in this letter including all attachments.

Your failure to provide such a description to the Company, or the Company’s failure to request such a description from You, will not alter the rights of the Company to any Work Product under this Section or otherwise.


9.    License.

You shall notify the Company in writing of any Licensed Materials You deliver to the Company.
10.    Release. During Your employment and after Your employment with the Company ends, You consent to the Company’s use of Your image, likeness, voice, or other characteristics in the Company’s products or services. You release the Company from any cause of action which You have or may have arising out of the use, distribution, adaptation, reproduction, broadcast, or exhibition of such characteristics.

obligations contained in this Section shall also apply to any property which belongs to a third party, including, but not limited to, (i) any entity which is affiliated or related to the Company, or (ii) the Company’s customers, licensors, or suppliers.
13.    Injunctive Relief. If You breach any portion of this Agreement, You agree that: (a) the Company would suffer irreparable harm; (b) it would be difficult to determine damages, and money damages alone would be an inadequate remedy for the injuries suffered by the Company; and (c) if the Company seeks injunctive relief to enforce this Agreement, You shall waive and shall not (i) assert any defense that the Company has an adequate remedy at law with respect to the breach, (ii) require that the Company submit proof of the economic value of any Trade Secret or Confidential Information, or (iii) require the Company to post a bond or any other security. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall limit the Company’s right to any other remedies at law or in equity. If You breach any of the covenants contained in Sections 2 through 5, then the period of time during which Your business activities are restricted under the terms of these Sections 2 through 5 shall be extended by a period of time equal to the period during which You are in breach of any of such covenants.  
14.    Independent Enforcement. Each of the covenants set forth in Sections 2 through 5 of this Agreement shall be construed as an agreement independent of (i) any other agreements, or (ii) any other provision in this Agreement, and the existence of any claim or cause of action by You against the Company, whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, regardless of who was at fault and regardless of any claims that either You or the Company may have against the other, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by the Company of any of the covenants set forth in Sections 2 through 5 of this Agreement. The Company shall not be barred from enforcing any of the covenants set forth in Sections 2 through 5 of this Agreement by reason of any breach of (i) any other part of this Agreement, or (ii) any other agreement with You.
15.    Survival Beyond Termination of Agreement. You specifically agree that the provisions of Sections 2 through 5 shall survive termination of this Agreement and any termination of Your employment hereunder.
16.    At-will Employment. This Agreement does not create a contract of employment or a contract for benefits. Your employment relationship with the Company is at-will. This means that at either Your option or the Company’s option, Your employment may be terminated at any time, with or without cause or notice.
17.    Attorneys’ Fees. In the event of litigation relating to this Agreement, the Company shall, if it is the prevailing party, be entitled to recover attorneys’ fees and costs of litigation in addition to all other remedies available at law or in equity.
18.    Waiver. The Company’s failure to enforce any provision of this Agreement shall not act as a waiver of that or any other provision. The Company’s waiver of any breach of this Agreement shall not act as a waiver of any other breach.
19.    Severability. The provisions of this Agreement are severable. If any provision is determined to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, in whole or in part, then such provision shall be modified so as to be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law. If such provision cannot be modified to be enforceable, the provision shall be severed from this Agreement to the extent unenforceable. The remaining provisions and any partially enforceable provisions shall remain in full force and effect.
20.    Governing Law. The laws of the State of New Jersey shall govern this Agreement. If New Jersey’s conflict of law rules would apply another state’s laws, the Parties agree that New Jersey law shall still govern. 
21.    No Strict Construction. You agree that neither this Agreement nor any provision therein shall be read or interpreted more favorably for one party over another, and there shall be no presumption that ambiguities shall be interpreted against the drafter of this Agreement.
22.    Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including Exhibit A which is incorporated by reference, constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties concerning the subject matter of this Agreement. This Agreement supersedes any prior communications, agreements or understandings, whether oral or written, between the Parties relating to the subject matter of this Agreement. You expressly warrant and agree that no promise or inducement has been offered to You except as set forth herein.
23.    Amendment. As a condition of employment and a material term under this Agreement, You agree that, at any time during Your employment, if requested by the Company, You shall sign an amendment to this Agreement which would modify the Restrictive Covenants in Sections 2 through 5 of this Agreement or Exhibit A (the “Amendment”) based on changes to Your duties, changes in the Company’s Business, changes to the Territory, changes in the Customers for whom You provide services, changes to the definition of “Customer”, and/or changes in the law regarding restrictive covenants. You agree that no additional consideration other than continued employment shall be necessary for such Amendment to be enforceable. You agree that

J.L.
        





Your refusal to sign any such Amendment shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement. This Agreement may not otherwise be amended or modified except in writing signed by both Parties.
24.    Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be assignable to, and shall inure to the benefit of, the Company’s successors and assigns, including, without limitation, successors through merger, name change, consolidation, or sale of a majority of the Company’s stock or assets, and shall be binding upon You. You shall not have the right to assign Your rights or obligations under this Agreement. 
25.    Execution. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, including, but not limited to, facsimiles and scanned images. Each counterpart shall for all purposes be deemed to be an original, and each counterpart shall constitute this Agreement.
26.    Consent to Jurisdiction and Venue. You agree that any and all claims arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be brought in a state or federal court of competent jurisdiction in New Jersey. You consent to the personal jurisdiction of the state and/or federal courts located in New Jersey. You waive (a) any objection to jurisdiction or venue, or (b) any defense claiming lack of jurisdiction or improper venue, in any action brought in such courts.
27.    Affirmation. You acknowledge that You have carefully read this Agreement, You know and understand its terms and conditions, and You have had the opportunity to ask the Company any questions You may have had prior to signing this Agreement.
