Employment Agreement 

Dear Ned: 
 This letter
agreement sets forth the terms of your employment with Aviat Networks, Inc. (the “Company”), as well as our understanding with respect to any termination of that employment relationship. This Agreement will become effective on your first
day of employment, which is anticipated to be October 31, 2011. 
 1. Position and Duties. You will be employed by
the Company as a Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer reporting to the Chief Executive Officer. This position will be based at our location in Santa Clara, California. You accept employment with the Company on the terms and conditions
set forth in this Agreement, and you agree during your employment not to engage in any business, other employment or other activities which would conflict with your obligations to the Company or create an actual or the appearance of a conflict of
interest with the Company’s interests or your employment relationship with the Company. The Company understands that you currently serve on the Board of Directors of Alaska Communications Systems Group, Inc. and Super Micro Computer, Inc. and
desire to continue serving on such boards. The Company is willing to allow you to continue your service on such boards, provided, that: (a) in the event of an actual or potential conflict of interest (or the appearance of a conflict of
interest) with the Company’s interests arising from your service on either of such boards, you shall immediately inform the Company of such conflict in order to discuss and resolve such conflict and the Company may, in its sole discretion,
require you to resign from such boards, (b) you acknowledge and agree that your primary duties and obligations are to the Company and (c) any time you spend in connection with your service on such boards that would otherwise be dedicated
to Company business shall be treated as vacation time taken by you. 
 2. Term of Employment. Your employment with the
Company is at will, which means that your employment is for no specified term, and may be terminated by you or the Company at any time, with or without cause or notice, subject to the provisions of Paragraphs 4 and 5 below.

 3. Compensation. You will be compensated by the Company for your services as
follows: 
 (a) Salary: You will be paid a monthly base salary of $30,000.00 ($360,000.00 per year), less applicable
withholding, in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll procedures and applicable law. In conjunction with your annual performance review, which will occur at or about the start of each fiscal year (currently July 1st), your base
salary will be reviewed by the Board, and may be subject to adjustment based upon various factors including, but not limited to, your performance and the Company’s profitability. Your base salary will not be reduced except as part of a salary
reduction program that similarly affects all members of the executive staff reporting to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. 
 (b) Annual Short-Term Incentive Plan: Subject to the Board’s approval of such a plan for Company employees each year, starting in FY2013, you will be eligible to participate in the
Company’s Annual Incentive Plan with a target annual bonus of 75% of your annual base salary, based upon achievement of the same performance objectives, floors and caps determined by the Board for the Annual Incentive Plan for executives
generally. You will also be entitled to participate in the Company’s FY2012 Annual Incentive Plan with a target of $288,750, prorated for the portion of FY2012 falling between your start date and the end of FY2012. Any vesting of performance
shares and/or payment under the Annual Incentive Plan will be made (if minimum targets are met) in the calendar year in which the relevant fiscal year ends. 
 (c) Long-Term Incentive Program: Subject to Board approval each year, you will be eligible to participate in a Long-Term Incentive Plan with a target value as determined by the Board. You will be
eligible to participate in the Company’s fiscal year 2012-14 Long-Term Incentive Plan with awards of (i) options with a GAAP value of $144,375 with a 3-year vesting period (50%/25%/25%) and (ii) shares of restricted stock with a
GAAP value of $72,188 with a 3-year vesting period (33.3%/33.3%/33.3%), with the first applicable vesting date for such awards on the first anniversary of your start date and additional vesting on each anniversary of such date thereafter. The
structure for future periods is subject to determination by the Board. 
 (d) New Hire One-Time Equity Awards. You will
also receive awards of (i) options with a GAAP value of $314,600 with a 3-year vesting period (50%/25%/25%) and (ii) shares of restricted stock with a GAAP value of $187,500 with a 3-year vesting period (33.3%/33.3%/33.3%), with the
first applicable vesting date for such awards on the first anniversary of your start date and additional vesting on each anniversary of such date thereafter. Such awards shall be made within thirty (30) days of your start date. 

(e) One-Time Cash Bonus Opportunity. You will receive a one-time cash bonus of $75,000, less applicable withholding, if the
Company achieves, by the end of the Company’s fourth quarter of FY2012, certain operational goals specified by the Chief Executive Officer. The achievement of such operational goals shall be determined by the Company’s Audit Committee. If
achieved, the one-time cash bonus shall be payable in the Company’s FY2013 following the announcement of the Company’s operating results for the fourth quarter of FY2012. 

(f) One-Time “Sign On” Bonus Opportunity: You will receive a one-time cash sign on bonus of $50,000, less applicable

 (g) Benefits: You will have the right, on the same basis as other employees of
the Company, to participate in and to receive benefits under any Company group medical, dental, life, disability or other group insurance plans, as well as under the Company’s business expense reimbursement, educational assistance, holiday, and
other benefit plans and policies. You will also be eligible to participate in the Company’s 401(k) plan. 
 (h)
Vacation: Once your employment begins, you will accrue paid vacation at the rate of 5 weeks per year. Maximum accrued vacation will be in accordance with the Company’s vacation policy. As stated in Paragraph 1 above, any time you spend
in connection with your service on outside boards that would otherwise be dedicated to Company business shall be treated as vacation time taken by you. 
 (i) Earned Compensation: For purposes of those Paragraphs of this Agreement pertaining to termination of the employment relationship, whether involuntary or voluntary, unless otherwise expressly
provided herein, no part of (i) the Annual Incentive Plan for the year in which the termination occurs, (ii) any performance-vesting equity or other awards for any period in which the termination occurs and (iii) any time-vesting
equity or other awards that are not vested as of the termination date will be deemed earned as of the date of termination. 
 4.
Voluntary Termination or Death. In the event that you voluntarily resign from your employment with the Company (other than for Good Reason or Good Reason Following a Change of Control as defined in Paragraphs 5(d) and 6(b)), or in the event
that your employment terminates as a result of your death, you will be entitled to no compensation or benefits from the Company other than those earned under Paragraph 3 through the date of termination. However, if your employment terminates as a
result of your death, the Company will pay your estate the prorated portion of any short-term incentive bonus that you would have earned during the incentive bonus period in which your employment terminates (the pro-ration shall be equal to the
percentage of that bonus period that you are actually employed by the Company); such prorated bonus will be paid at the time that such incentive bonuses are paid to other Company employees. You agree that if you voluntarily terminate your employment
with the Company for any reason, you will provide the Company with at least 10 business days’ written notice of your resignation. The Company shall have the option, in its sole discretion, to make your resignation effective at any time prior to
the end of such notice period, provided the Company pays you an amount equal to the base salary and benefits you would have earned through the end of the notice period. 
 5. Other Termination. Your employment may be terminated under the circumstances set forth below. 
 (a) Termination by Disability: If, by reason of any physical or mental incapacity, you have been or will be prevented from performing your then-current duties under this Agreement with reasonable
accommodation, then, to the extent permitted by law, the Company may terminate your employment without any advance notice. Upon such termination, if you sign a general release of known and unknown claims in a form satisfactory to the Company which
becomes valid and irrevocable within 60 days of your termination, and you fully comply with your obligations under Paragraphs 7, 8, and 10, the Company will provide you with the severance payments and benefits described in Paragraph 5(c).
Nothing in this paragraph shall

 Edward J. Hayes, Jr. 
 Employment Agreement 
  

 
affect your rights under any applicable Company disability plan; provided, however, that your severance payments will be offset by any disability income payments received by you so that the total
monthly severance and disability income payments during your severance period shall not exceed your then-current base salary. 

(b) Termination for Cause: The Company may terminate your employment at any time for cause (as described below) without providing
any notice (except to the extent expressly provided below). If your employment is terminated by the Company for cause, you shall be entitled to no compensation or benefits from the Company other than those earned under Paragraph 3 through the date
of termination. For purposes of this Agreement, a termination for “cause” occurs if you are terminated for any of the following reasons: (i) theft, dishonesty, misconduct or falsification of any employment or Company records;
(ii) improper disclosure of the Company’s confidential or proprietary information; (iii) any action by you which has a material detrimental effect on the Company’s reputation or business; (iv) your refusal or inability to
perform any assigned duties (other than as a result of a disability), after written notice from the Company to you of, and a 30-day opportunity to cure, such refusal or inability; (v) your material breach of this Agreement or of the employee
proprietary information/confidentiality/assignment of inventions agreement not otherwise described in this paragraph, after written notice from the Company to you of, and a 30-day opportunity to cure, such breach; or (vi) your conviction
(including any plea of guilty or no contest) for any criminal act that impairs your ability to perform your duties under this Agreement. 
 (c) Termination Without Cause: The Company may terminate your employment without cause at any time with or without advance notice. If your employment is terminated by the Company without cause, and
you sign a general release of known and unknown claims in a form satisfactory to the Company within the applicable review period which thereupon is (or, if any revocation period is required by law, following expiration of such period becomes) valid
and irrevocable within 60 days of your termination, and you fully comply with your obligations under Paragraphs 7, 8, and 10, you will receive the following severance benefits: 

(i) payments at your final base salary rate for a period of twelve (12) months following your termination; such payments will be
subject to applicable withholding and made in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices; provided, however, that any such payments that would have been paid in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices before your
release becomes valid and irrevocable will accumulate and be paid only if and when both (x) your release becomes valid and irrevocable and (y) such validity and irrevocability in no event occurs more than 60 days after your
termination; 
 (ii) payment of the premiums necessary to continue your group health insurance under the Consolidated Omnibus
Budget Reconciliation Act (“COBRA”) provided you have timely elected COBRA coverage until the earlier of (x) twelve (12) months following your termination date; or (y) the date you first became eligible to participate in
another employer’s group health insurance plan; or (z) the date on which you are no longer eligible for COBRA coverage;

 Edward J. Hayes, Jr. 
 Employment Agreement 
  

 (iii) the Company will pay you the prorated portion of any incentive bonus that you
would have earned, if any, during the incentive bonus period in which your employment terminates (the pro-ration shall be equal to the percentage of that bonus period that you are actually employed by the Company), and such prorated bonus will be
paid to you at the time that such incentive bonuses are paid to other Company employees, or at any earlier time required by applicable law; 
 (iv) with respect to any stock options or other equity-related awards granted to you by the Company, you will cease vesting upon your termination date; however, you will be entitled to purchase any vested
shares of stock that are subject to those options until the earlier of (x) twelve (12) months following your termination date, or (y) the date on which the applicable option(s) expire(s); except as set forth in this subparagraph, your
Company stock options and other equity-related awards will continue to be subject to and governed by the Company’s Stock Equity Plan (as amended from time to time, the “Plan”) and the applicable agreements between you and the Company;
and 
 (v) reasonable outplacement assistance selected and paid for by the Company. 

(d) Resignation for Good Reason: If you resign from your employment with the Company for Good Reason (as defined in this
paragraph), and such resignation does not qualify as a resignation for Good Reason Following a Change of Control (as defined in Paragraph 6(b), and you sign a general release of known and unknown claims in a form satisfactory to the Company
within the applicable review period which thereupon is (or, if any revocation period is required by law, following expiration of such period becomes) valid and irrevocable within 60 days of your termination, and you fully comply with your
obligations under Paragraphs 7, 8, and 10, you shall receive the severance benefits described in Paragraph 5(c). For purposes of this Paragraph, “Good Reason” means any of the following conditions, which condition(s) remain in effect 60
days after written notice from you to the Chief Executive Officer of said condition(s): 
 (i) a reduction in your base salary
of 20% or more, other than a reduction that is similarly applicable to all members of the Company’s executive staff; or 

(ii) a material reduction in your employee benefits, other than a reduction that is similarly applicable to all of the members of the
Company’s executive staff; or 
 (iii) a material breach by the Company of any material provision of this Agreement; or

 (iv) the relocation of the Company’s workplace to a location that is more than 75 miles from your current Company
workplace in Santa Clara, California. 
 The foregoing condition(s) shall not constitute “Good Reason” if you do not provide the Chief
Executive Officer with the written notice described above within 45 days after you first become aware of the condition(s).

 (e) Termination or Resignation For Good Reason Following a Change of Control: If,

and you sign a general release of known and unknown claims in a form satisfactory to the Company within the applicable review period which thereupon is (or, if any revocation period is required by law, following expiration of such period becomes)
valid and irrevocable within 60 days of your termination, and you fully comply with your obligations under Paragraphs 7, 8, and 10, you shall receive the severance benefits described in Paragraph 5(c); provided, that the time periods set forth in
subparagraphs 5(c)(i), (ii), and (iv) shall each be increased by an additional twelve (12) months. In addition, if such termination occurs, you shall receive a payment (in lieu of any payment under subparagraph 5(c)(iii)) equal to the
greater of (i) the average of the annual incentive bonus payments received by you, if any, for the previous three years, or (ii) your target incentive bonus for the year in which your employment terminates. Such payment will be made to you
within 15 days following the date on which the general release of claims described above becomes irrevocable. The Company will also accelerate the vesting of all unvested stock options granted to you by the Company, and all other then-unvested
equity-related awards that vest based solely on continued employment by the Company or its affiliates (unless the terms of such other equity-related awards expressly provide that there is not to be any such acceleration).

 Edward J. Hayes, Jr.

 8. Termination Obligations. 

(a) You agree that all property, including, without limitation, all equipment, proprietary information, documents, books, records,
reports, notes, contracts, lists and computer files and data, and copies thereof, created on any medium and furnished to, obtained by, or prepared by you in the course of or incident to your employment, belongs to the Company and shall be returned
to the Company promptly upon any termination of your employment. 
 (b) Upon your termination for any reason, and as a condition
of your receipt of any severance benefits hereunder, you will promptly resign in writing from all offices and directorships then held with the Company or any affiliate of the Company. 

(c) Following the termination of your employment with the Company for any reason, you shall fully cooperate with the Company in all
matters relating to the winding up of pending work on behalf of the Company and the orderly transfer of work to other employees of the Company. You shall also cooperate in the defense of any action brought by any third party against the Company.

 9. Limitation of Payments and Benefits. 
 To the extent that any of the payments and benefits provided for in this Agreement or otherwise payable to you (the “Payments”) constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of
Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), the amount of such Payments shall be either: 
 (a) the full amount of the Payments, or 
 (b) a reduced amount that would result
in no portion of the Payments being subject to the excise tax imposed pursuant to Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), 

whichever of the foregoing amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state and local income taxes and the Excise Tax, results in the receipt
by you, on an after-tax basis, of the greatest amount of benefit. In the event that any Excise Tax is imposed on the Payments, you will be fully responsible for the payment of any and all Excise Tax, and the Company will not be obligated to pay all
or any portion of any Excise Tax. 
 10. Other Activities. In order to protect the Company’s valuable proprietary
information, you agree that during your employment you will not, as a compensated or uncompensated officer, director, consultant, advisor, partner, joint venturer, investor, independent contractor, employee or otherwise, provide any labor, services,
advice or assistance to any entity or its successor involved in the design, manufacture, distribution (directly or indirectly), or integration of any digital microwave products and used in terrestrial microwave point-to-point telecommunications
networks anywhere in the world. You acknowledge and agree that the restrictions contained in the preceding sentence are reasonable and necessary. You also agree that for a period of twelve (12) months after your employment terminates, you will
not solicit any employee of the Company directly or indirectly to leave employment with the Company for any purpose, including but not limited to for purposes of providing labor, services, advice or assistance to any entity or individual. In the
event of your breach of this Paragraph, the Company shall not be obligated to provide you with any further severance payments or benefits subsequent to such breach, in addition to other remedies available under applicable laws.

 11. Dispute Resolution. The parties agree that any suit, action, or proceeding
arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the parties’ employment relationship, or the termination of that relationship for any reason, shall be brought in the appropriate state or federal court appropriate for disputes arising in Santa
Clara, California, and you agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of such court. The parties irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection they may have to the laying of venue for any such suit, action or proceeding
brought in such court. If any one or more provisions of this Paragraph 11 shall for any reason be held invalid or unenforceable, it is the specific intent of the parties that such provisions shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to
make it or its application valid and enforceable. 
 12. Compliance with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code.
This Agreement is intended to comply with, or otherwise be exempt from, Section 409A of the Code and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (collectively, “Section 409A”). However, the Company has not made and is making no
representation to you relating to the tax treatment of any payment pursuant to this Agreement under Section 409A and the corresponding provisions of any applicable State income tax laws. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any payments or benefits due hereunder upon a termination of employment which
are a “deferral of compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A shall only be payable or provided to you upon a “separation from service” as defined for purposes of Section 409A. In addition, if you are a
“specified employee” as determined pursuant to Section 409A as of the date of your separation from service, as so defined, and if any payments or entitlements provided for in this Agreement constitute a “deferral of
compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A and cannot be paid or provided in the manner provided herein without subjecting you to additional tax, interest or penalties under Section 409A, then any such payment or entitlement
which is otherwise payable during the first six months following your separation from service shall be paid or provided to you in a lump sum on the earlier of (i) the first business day of the seventh calendar month immediately following the
month in which your separation from service occurs or (ii) the date of your death. To the extent required to satisfy the provisions of the foregoing sentence with respect to any benefit to be provided in-kind, the Company shall bill you, and
you shall promptly pay, the value for tax purposes of any such benefit and the Company shall therefore promptly refund the amount so paid by you as soon as allowed by the foregoing sentence. 

For purposes of Section 409A, the right to a series of installment payments under this Agreement shall be treated as a right to a
series of separate payments. With respect to any reimbursement of your expenses, or any provision of in-kind benefits to you, as specified under this Agreement, such reimbursement of expenses or provision of in-kind benefits shall be subject to the
following conditions: (1) the expenses eligible for reimbursement or the amount of in-kind benefits provided in one taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement or the amount of in-kind benefits provided in any other
taxable year, except for any medical reimbursement arrangement providing for the reimbursement of expenses referred to in Section 

  
 9 









 Edward J. Hayes, Jr. 
 Employment Agreement 
  

 
105(b) of the Code; (2) the reimbursement of an eligible expense shall be made no later than the end of the year after the year in which such expense was incurred; and (3) the right to
reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit. 
 13.
Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is deemed invalid, illegal or unenforceable, such provision shall be modified so as to make it valid, legal and enforceable, and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining
provisions of this Agreement shall not in any way be affected. 
 14. Confirmation of Rights which Are not Dependent Upon
Signing a Release. Whether or not you sign a release as provided in certain provisions of this Agreement, (a) you will be paid all wages due, including any unused accrued vacation, as of your last day of work, (b) your health care
coverage as a primary insured under the Company’s health plan will continue through the end of the month in which your last day of work falls, (c) thereafter, you will be eligible for continuation of health insurance at your own expense if
you timely elect coverage under COBRA, and (d) you will receive information regarding your right to continue health insurance under COBRA. 
 15. Applicable Withholding. All salary, bonus, severance and other payments identified in this Agreement are subject to applicable withholding by the Company. 

16. Assignment. In view of the personal nature of the services to be performed under this Agreement by you, you cannot assign or
transfer any of your obligations under this Agreement. 
 17. Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the agreements
referred to above constitute the entire agreement between you and the Company regarding the terms and conditions of your employment, and they supersede all prior negotiations, representations or agreements between you and the Company regarding your
employment, whether written or oral. This Agreement sets forth our entire agreement regarding the Company’s obligation to provide you with severance benefits upon any termination of your employment, and you shall not be entitled to receive any
other severance benefits from the Company pursuant to any Company severance plan, policy or practice. 
 18. Governing
Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of California. 
 19.
Modification. This Agreement may only be modified or amended by a supplemental written agreement signed by you and an authorized representative of the Board.
