 WHEREAS, the Parties wish to resolve any and all disputes, claims, complaints, grievances, charges, actions, petitions and demands that the Employee may
have against the Company, including, but not limited to, any and all claims arising or in any way related to Employee’s current employment with or future separation from the Company; 
 THUS, in consideration of the promises made herein, the Parties agree as follows: 
 1. Consideration. 
 (a) Up-Front Cash Payment. In consideration for executing this Agreement, the Company shall pay Employee the total amount of One Thousand Dollars ($1,000) (the “Initial Payment”), less applicable withholding, in
accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices. This payment shall be made to Employee within five (5) business days after the Effective Date (as defined below). 







 (b) Continued Employment; Severance. 
 (i) The Employee’s employment with the Company shall continue at-will until the Termination Date, unless continued employment
is earlier terminated by either the Employee or by the Company for “cause,” as defined below (the “Employment Period”). The Company and Employee acknowledge and agree that as of the Effective Date, Employee’s official
title shall be Executive Vice President, and he may refer to himself as an Executive Vice President. Employee shall report to the Office of the CEO. Notwithstanding his title, the Company and Employee acknowledge and agree that the Parties do not
intend Employee to be a Section 16 officer for securities law purposes. The Company and Employee further acknowledge and agree that, from and after April 1, 2007, as Executive Vice President, Employee shall (i) earn a salary of
Twenty-Nine Thousand One Hundred Sixty-Six and 67/100 Dollars ($29,166.67) per month, less applicable withholdings (Three Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($350,000) annualized, less applicable withholding) paid in accordance with the Company’s
regular payroll practices (the “Monthly Payments”), (ii) be available to work 30 hours per week (although the employee shall not be required to work in the Company office unless requested by the Company’s CEO, Vivek
Ranadive), and (iii) perform such services as are directed by the CEO Vivek Ranadive. If Employee accepts another position during the Employment Period or otherwise resigns prior to the Termination Date then Employee shall notify the Company
immediately. 
 (ii) Unless the Employee’s employment is terminated by the Company for cause as otherwise
described in this Agreement, and provided that the Employee is otherwise in compliance with all of the terms of this Agreement, if the Employee (a) remains an Employee of the Company through the Termination Date, or (b) resigns prior to
April 30, 2007, thereby accelerating the Termination Date, the Company agrees that it shall pay to Employee an amount which (the “Termination Payment”), when combined with the Initial Payment and the Monthly Payments made after
the execution of this agreement and prior to the actual Termination Date, will equal Three Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars (US$350,000). The Termination Payment shall be paid fifteen days following the Termination Date. 
 (iii) If Employee fails to inform the Company of any new employment (a “Specified Breach”), and the Company
continues to pay Employee under this section, the Company reserves the right to seek reimbursement of payments from Employee above minimum wage for the period following his Specified Breach. Employee shall no longer be entitled to continued payments
under this section if Employee accepts and commences work for another employer or if the Company terminates Employee’s employment with the Company for “cause.” “Cause” shall mean: (a) Employee engages in any act of
dishonesty, fraud or misrepresentation, or violation of the Company’s anti-harassment and discrimination policies; (b) Employee’s violation of any federal, state or other law or regulation applicable to the Company’s business or
violation of Company policies, as set forth in the Company’s Employee Handbook, designed to ensure compliance with a federal, state or other law or regulation applicable to the Company’s business; (c) Employee’s material breach
of any confidentiality agreement or invention assignment agreement between Employee and the Company; (d) Employee acknowledging the commission of, being convicted of, or entering a plea of guilty or nolo contendere to, any felony or misdemeanor
involving moral turpitude; or (e) the Employee failing to notify the Company that he has accepted a position during the Employment Period with another company and/or the 








 
Employee accepting a position during the Employment Period, directly or indirectly, of providing services for a competitor of the Company while continuing to
receive salary and other payments from the Company. In the event that the Company believes that Employee has committed an act or acts constituting “cause” under subsections 1(b)(i) (a) through (e) above, the Company shall provide
specific written notice thereof to Employee, if such “cause” is reasonably susceptible of being cured, and the termination of Employee’s employment therefore shall become effective fourteen (14) days after that notice, provided
that it has not been cured by that date. For purposes of this Agreement, a “competitor of the Company” shall be any one of the following companies, together with their successors and/or assigns: WebMethods Inc., BEA Systems, the netweaver
or infrastructure division of SAP, the division(s) of Sun Microsystems into which SeeBeyond has been integrated, Sonic Software, Progress Software Corporation, the messaging software or infrastructure software departments of IBM Corporation or
Microsoft Corporation; or the infrastructure division of Oracle Corporation. 
 (c) Supplemental Severance. In the
event that Employee elects to continue employment through the Termination Date and Employee’s employment has not been terminated for “cause,” upon the termination of Employee’s employment, the Company agrees that, in addition to
paying the Termination Payment, the Company will pay Employee: 
 (i) an additional lump sum payment of One Hundred
Thirty-Two Thousand Six Hundred Ninety-Two Dollars ($132,692) (the “Final Lump Sum”), less applicable withholdings, and 
 (ii) reimbursement of payments Employee makes for premiums paid for continued health benefits for Employee (and any eligible dependents) under the Company’s group health plans until the earlier of
(a) twelve (12) months (provided Employee validly elects to continue coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (“COBRA”), or (b) the date upon which Employee and Employee’s eligible dependents
become covered under similar plans of another employer, in consideration for, and conditioned upon, the execution by Employee of a Supplemental Severance Agreement and Release, the form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A (the
“Supplemental Agreement”). The Final Lump Sum shall be paid within sixteen (16) days of the Effective Date of the Supplemental Agreement. In the event that Employee’s employment is terminated earlier than the Termination
Date for “cause,” the Company reserves the right to elect at its sole discretion whether or not to offer Employee any payment in exchange for a supplemental severance agreement and release, whether in the form of the Supplemental Agreement
or some other form satisfactory to the Company. 
 (d) Aggregate Consideration. For the sake of clarity, the Company
will not pay more than Four Hundred Eighty-Two Thousand Six Hundred Ninety-Two Dollars ($482,692) under the terms of this Agreement or the Supplemental Agreement for the Initial Payment, the Monthly Payments, the Termination Payment and the Final
Lump Sum, inclusive of any applicable withholding or other taxes and payment reimbursements. To the extent the Company exceeds any specified payment in a given month, the Company will offset that amount against subsequent payments to achieve a total
payment of Four Hundred Eighty-Two Thousand Six Hundred Ninety-Two Dollars ($482,692) inclusive of any applicable withholding or other taxes and payment reimbursements. 







 2. Benefits. Employee’s health insurance benefits shall cease on the earlier of the
Termination Date, or the date Employee or the Company actually terminates Employee’s employment, subject to Employee’s right to continue his health insurance under COBRA. Employee’s participation in all other benefits and incidents of

care benefit provider, Great West’s, attention. 
 3. Stock. The vesting of any stock options shall continue through the
remainder of Employee’s employment, and both vesting and exercise shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Stock Option Agreements. 
 4. Confidential Information. Employee shall continue to maintain the confidentiality of all confidential and proprietary information of the Company and shall continue to comply with the terms and conditions of the Employment
Agreement and NDA Agreement between Employee and the Company, specifically including the provisions therein regarding nondisclosure of the Company’s trade secrets and confidential and proprietary information, and non-solicitation of Company
employees. Employee shall return to the Company, by the Termination Date, all of the Company’s property and confidential and proprietary information in his possession. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Employee may retain the laptop computer in
his possession provided that, by the Termination Date, he has made such device available to the Company for the purpose of removing any and all Information that the Company, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate.

 The Company and
Employee agree that the release set forth in this section shall be and remain in effect in all respects as a complete general release as to the matters released. This release does not extend to any obligations incurred under this Supplemental
Agreement, nor to any rights to defense and indemnity that Employee may have available to him from the Company pursuant to the terms of the Company’s insurance policies, the Company’s By-Laws, or pursuant to statute or common law.

 7. Acknowledgement of Waiver of Claims Under ADEA. Employee acknowledges that he is waiving and releasing any rights he may have
under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (“ADEA”) and that this waiver and release is knowing and voluntary. Employee and the Company agree that this waiver and release does not apply to any rights or claims that may arise
under ADEA after the Effective Date of this Supplemental Agreement. Employee acknowledges that the consideration given for this Supplemental Agreement is in addition to anything of value to which Employee was already entitled. Employee further

 8. Civil Code Section 1542. Employee represents that he is not aware of any claim by him against any of the Releasees other than the claims that are released by this Supplemental Agreement. Employee acknowledges that he has had
the opportunity to be advised by legal counsel and is familiar with the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1542, which provides as follows: 
 A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH
THE DEBTOR. 
 Employee, being aware of said code section, agrees to expressly waive any rights he may have thereunder, as well as under any other statute or
common law principles of similar effect. 
 9. No Pending or Future Lawsuits. Employee represents that he has no lawsuits, claims, or
actions pending in his name, or on behalf of any other person or entity, against the Company or any of the Releasees. Employee also represents that he is not presently aware of any claims on his own behalf, not otherwise released herein, against the
Company or any of the Releasees, and that consequently, he has no present intention to bring any claims on his own behalf or on behalf of any other person or entity against the Company or any of the Releasees. 
 10. No Application for Employment. Employee understands and agrees that, as a condition of this Supplemental Agreement, he shall not be entitled
to any employment with the Company, and he hereby waives any right, or alleged right, of employment or re-employment with the Company. Employee further agrees that he will not apply for employment with the Company. 
 11. Confidentiality. The Parties acknowledge that their agreement to keep the contents of, terms and conditions of, and the consideration for this
Supplemental Agreement confidential was a material factor on which all parties relied in entering into this Supplemental Agreement. Except as permitted herein, the Parties hereto agree to maintain in confidence the existence of this Supplemental
Agreement, the contents, terms and conditions of this Supplemental Agreement, and the consideration for this Supplemental Agreement (hereinafter collectively referred to as “Settlement Information”). The Parties may also disclose, on a
reasonable “need to know” basis the contents of, terms and conditions of, and the consideration for this Supplemental Agreement to: a) immediate family; b) legal and/or other professional advisors, or Company personnel necessary to
implement the Supplemental Agreement (as determined by the Company in its sole discretion); c) to enforce (or defend against asserted claims of) breaches of this Supplemental Agreement; or d) as required by law (e.g. by subpoena or for tax
disclosures) or pursuant to Court order. Except as to the latter two categories, such recipients of Settlement 

  

 4 








 
Information will also be informed of the confidentiality requirements contained herein. Each Party hereto otherwise agrees to take every reasonable
precaution to prevent disclosure of any Settlement Information to other third parties, and agrees that there will be no other publicity, directly or indirectly, concerning any Settlement Information. 
 12. Breach. Employee acknowledges and agrees that any breach of Paragraphs 6, 8, 9 or 11 hereof shall constitute a material breach of this
Agreement and shall entitle the Company to recover the consideration provided to Employee under this Agreement, except as provided by law, and that any material breach of any provision of this Agreement, the Transition Agreement, or of the NDA shall
constitute a material breach of this Agreement and shall entitle the Company to seek injunctive relief to retrain such breach and prevent irreparable harm, without prejudice to the Company’s right to pursue all other remedies permitted by law.
Except as provided by law, the non-prevailing Party in the adjudication of any such claims shall be liable to the prevailing Party for all reasonable costs (including the costs of arbitration, litigation and court fees incurred in connection with
such action), attorneys’ fees and any and all damages incurred by the prevailing Party in enforcing (or defending against claimed breaches of) the obligations under this Supplemental Agreement and the NDA Agreement. 
 13. Arbitration. The Parties agree that any and all disputes arising out of the terms of the Agreement, the Supplemental Agreement, their
interpretation, and any of the matters herein released, shall be subject to confidential and binding arbitration in Santa Clara County before the American Arbitration Association under its National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes,
supplemented by the California Code of Civil Procedure. The Parties agree that the prevailing party in any arbitration shall be entitled to injunctive relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce the arbitration award. The Parties agree
that the prevailing party in any arbitration shall be awarded its reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs. The Parties hereby agree to waive their right to have any dispute between them resolved in a court of law by a judge or jury. This paragraph
will not prevent either party from seeking injunctive relief (or any other provisional remedy) from any court having jurisdiction over the Parties and the subject matter of their dispute relating to Employee’s obligations under the Transition
Agreement, this Supplemental Agreement and the NDA Agreement. 
 14. Authority. The Company represents and warrants that the
undersigned has the authority to act on behalf of the Company and to bind the Company and all who may claim through it to the terms and conditions of this Supplemental Agreement. Employee represents and warrants that he has the capacity to act on
his own behalf and on behalf of all who might claim through him to bind them to the terms and conditions of this Supplemental Agreement. Each Party warrants and represents that there are no liens or claims of lien or assignments in law or equity or
otherwise of or against any of the claims or causes of action released herein. 
 15. No Representations. Each Party represents that
it has consulted with an attorney, and has carefully read and understands the scope and effect of the provisions of this Supplemental Agreement. In entering into this Supplemental Agreement, neither Party has relied upon any representations or
statements made by the other party hereto which are not specifically set forth in this Supplemental Agreement.

 16. Severability. In the event that any provision, or any portion thereof becomes or is declared
by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, unenforceable or void, the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall in no way be affected or impaired thereby, and the parties shall substitute for the affected
portion an enforceable provision which closest approximates the intent and effect thereof. 
 17. Entire Agreement. This Supplemental
Agreement, the Transition Agreement, the Employment Agreement, the Indemnification Agreement and the NDA Agreement represent the entire agreement and understanding between the Company and Employee concerning the subject matter thereof and
Employee’s employment with and separation from the Company, and the events leading thereto and associated therewith, and supersede and replace any and all prior agreements and understandings between the Parties concerning the subject matter of
this Supplemental Agreement and Employee’s relationship with the Company. 
 18. No Waiver. The failure of either the Company or
Employee to insist upon the performance of any of the terms and conditions in this Supplemental Agreement, or the failure to prosecute any breach of any of the terms and conditions of this Supplemental Agreement, shall not be construed thereafter as
a waiver of any such terms or conditions. This entire Supplemental Agreement shall remain in full force and effect as if no such forbearance or failure of performance had occurred. 
 19. No Oral Modification. This Supplemental Agreement may only be amended in a writing signed by Employee and the Executive Vice President,
General Counsel & Secretary of the Company or the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. 
 20. Governing Law. This
Supplemental Agreement shall be construed, interpreted, governed, and enforced in accordance with California law, without regard to choice-of-law provisions. The Parties consent to personal and exclusive jurisdiction and venue in California.

 21. Effective Date. This Supplemental Agreement is effective after both parties have signed it and after seven (7) days have
passed since Employee has signed the Supplemental Agreement (the “Effective Date”). Each party has seven days after signing the Supplemental Agreement to revoke it. Revocation must be made in writing delivered no later than seven days
after execution, and if by Employee, to the Executive Vice President, General Counsel & Secretary for the Company. 
 22.
Counterparts; Facsimile. This Supplemental Agreement may be executed in counterparts and by facsimile, and each counterpart and facsimile shall have the same force and effect as an original and shall constitute an effective, binding agreement on
the part of each of the undersigned. A signature shall be treated as a fully enforceable signature hereto upon receipt by facsimile, mail, Federal Express delivery, or personal delivery. 
 23. No Cooperation. Employee agrees not to act in any manner that might damage the business of the Company. Employee further agrees that she will
not knowingly encourage, counsel or assist any attorneys or their clients in the presentation or prosecution of any disputes, differences, grievances, claims, charges, or complaints by any third party against any of the Releasees, unless under a
subpoena or other court order to do so. Employee agrees to use 

  

 6 








 
diligent, reasonable and good faith efforts both to promptly notify the Company upon receipt of any such subpoena or court order, and to furnish, within
three (3) days of its receipt, a copy of such subpoena or court order to the Company. If approached by anyone for counsel or assistance in the presentation or prosecution of any disputes, differences, grievances, claims, charges, or complaints
against any of the Releasees, Employee shall state no more than that she cannot provide counsel or assistance. 
 24.
Non-Disparagement. Employee agrees to refrain from any defamation, libel or slander of the Releasees, and any tortious interference with the contracts, relationships and prospective economic advantage of the Releasees. The Company and, during
their period of employment or service with the Company, its current officers and directors agree to refrain from any defamation, libel or slander of Employee. Employee agrees that she shall direct all inquiries by potential future employers to the
Company’s Human Resources Department for references from the Company. Upon inquiry, the Company shall only confirm the following: Employee’s last position held and dates of employment, final compensation and any other information and/or
documentation legally required to be disclosed. 
 25. Non Solicitation. Employee agrees that for a period of twelve (12) months
immediately following the Effective Date of this Supplemental Agreement, Employee will not directly or indirectly solicit, induce, recruit or encourage any of the Company’s employees to leave their employment at the Company. 
 26. Attorneys’ Fees. In the event that either Party brings an action to enforce or effect its rights under this Supplemental Agreement, the
prevailing Party shall be entitled to recover its reasonable costs and expenses, including the costs of mediation, arbitration, litigation, court fees and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with such an action. 
 27. No Admission of Liability. Employee understands and acknowledges that this Supplemental Agreement constitutes a compromise and settlement of
any and all potential disputed claims. No action taken by the Company hereto, either previously or in connection with this Supplemental Agreement, shall be deemed or construed to be: (a) an admission of the truth or falsity of any potential
claims; or (b) an acknowledgment or admission by the Company of any fault or liability whatsoever to Employee or to any third party. 
 28. Costs. The Parties shall each bear their own costs, attorneys’ fees and other fees incurred in connection with the preparation of this Supplemental Agreement. 
 29. Tax Consequences. The Company makes no representations or warranties with respect to the tax consequences of the payments provided to Employee
or made on his behalf under the terms of this Supplemental Agreement. Employee agrees and understands that she is responsible for payment, if any, of local, state and/or federal taxes on the payments made hereunder by the Company and any penalties
or assessments thereon. Employee further agrees to indemnify and hold the Company harmless from any claims, demands, deficiencies, penalties, interest, assessments, executions, judgments, or recoveries by any government agency against the Company
for any amounts claimed due on account of: (a) Employee’s failure to pay or the Company’s failure to withhold, or Employee’s delayed payment of, federal or state taxes; or (b) damages sustained by the Company by reason of
