EX-10.6





 Exhibit 10.6 

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 

This Employment Agreement (“Agreement”) is made between Dynatrace LLC, a Delaware corporation (the
“Company”), and John Van Siclen (the “Executive”) and is effective as of the effectiveness of the Company’s Form S-1 Registration Statement with the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission (the “Effective Date”). Except with respect to the Restrictive Covenants Agreement, the Continuing Obligations, and the Equity Documents (each as defined below), this Agreement supersedes in all respects all
prior agreements between the Executive and the Company regarding the subject matter herein, including without limitation the Severance Agreement between the Executive and the Company dated June 6, 2014 (the “Prior
Agreement”), and (ii) any offer letter, employment agreement or severance agreement. 
 WHEREAS, the Company desires to
continue to employ the Executive and the Executive desires to continue to be employed by the Company on the new terms and conditions contained herein. 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows: 
 1. Employment. 

(a) Term. The Company shall employ the Executive and the Executive shall be employed by the Company pursuant to this Agreement
commencing as of the Effective Date and continuing until such employment is terminated in accordance with the provisions hereof (the “Term”). The Executive’s employment with the Company will continue to be “at will,”
meaning that the Executive’s employment may be terminated by the Company or the Executive at any time and for any reason subject to the terms of this Agreement. 

(b) Position and Duties. The Executive shall serve as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company (“CEO”) and shall
have such powers and duties as may from time to time be prescribed by the Board of Directors (the “Board”). In addition, the Company shall cause the Executive to be nominated for election to the Board and to be recommended to the
stockholders for election to the Board as long as the executive remains CEO, provided the Executive shall resign from the Board and from any related positions upon ceasing to serve as CEO for any reason. The Executive shall devote the
Executive’s full working time and efforts to the business and affairs of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive may serve on other boards of directors, with the approval of the Board, or engage in religious, charitable or
other community activities as long as such services and activities are disclosed to the Board and do not interfere with the Executive’s performance of the Executive’s duties to the Company. To the extent applicable, the Executive shall be
deemed to have resigned from all officer and board member positions that the Executive holds with the Company or any of its respective subsidiaries and affiliates upon the termination of the Executive’s employment for any reason. The Executive
shall execute any documents in reasonable form as may be requested to confirm or effectuate any such resignations. 












 2. Compensation and Related Matters. 

(a) Base Salary. The Executive’s initial base salary shall be paid at the rate of $575,000 per year. The Executive’s base
salary shall be subject to periodic review by the Board or the Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Compensation Committee”). The base salary in effect at any given time is referred to herein as “Base Salary.”
The Base Salary shall be payable in a manner that is consistent with the Company’s usual payroll practices for executive officers. 

(b) Incentive Compensation. The Executive shall be eligible to receive cash incentive compensation as determined by the Board or the
Compensation Committee from time to time. The Executive’s initial target annual incentive compensation shall be 100 (100%) percent of the Executive’s Base Salary (the “Target Bonus”). The actual amount of the
Executive’s annual incentive compensation, if any, shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Board or the Compensation Committee, subject to the terms of any applicable incentive compensation plan that may be in effect from time to
time. Except as otherwise provided herein, to earn incentive compensation, the Executive must be employed by the Company on the day such incentive compensation is paid. 

(c) Expenses. The Executive shall be entitled to receive prompt reimbursement for all reasonable expenses incurred by the Executive
during the Term in performing services hereunder, in accordance with the policies and procedures then in effect and established by the Company for its executive officers. 

(d) Other Benefits. The Executive shall be eligible to participate in or receive benefits under the Company’s employee benefit
plans in effect from time to time, subject to the terms of such plans. 
 (e) Paid Time Off. The Executive shall be entitled to take
paid time off in accordance with the Company’s applicable paid time off policy for executives, as may be in effect from time to time. 

(f) Equity. The equity awards held by the Executive shall continue to be governed by the terms and conditions of the Company’s
applicable equity incentive plan(s) and the applicable award agreement(s) containing the terms of such equity awards held by the Executive (collectively, the “Equity Documents”); provided, however, and notwithstanding anything to
the contrary in the Equity Documents, Section 6(a)(ii) of this Agreement shall apply in the event of a termination by the Company without Cause or by the Executive for Good Reason in either event within the Change in
Control Period (as such terms are defined below). 
 3. Termination. The Executive’s employment hereunder may be terminated
without any breach of this Agreement under the following circumstances: 
 (a) Death. The Executive’s employment hereunder shall
terminate upon death. 
 (b) Disability. The Company may terminate the Executive’s employment if the Executive is disabled and
unable to perform the essential functions of the Executive’s then 

  
 2 













 
existing position or positions under this Agreement with or without reasonable accommodation for a period of six (6) consecutive months in any
12-month period. If any question shall arise as to whether during any period the Executive is disabled so as to be unable to perform the essential functions of the Executive’s then existing position or
positions with or without reasonable accommodation, the Executive may, and at the request of the Company shall, submit to the Company a certification in reasonable detail by a physician selected by the Company to whom the Executive or the
Executive’s guardian has no reasonable objection as to whether the Executive is so disabled or how long such disability is expected to continue, and such certification shall for the purposes of this Agreement be conclusive of the issue. The
Executive shall cooperate with any reasonable request of the physician in connection with such certification. If such question shall arise and the Executive shall fail to submit such certification, the Company’s determination of such issue
shall be binding on the Executive. Nothing in this Section 3(b) shall be construed to waive the Executive’s rights, if any, under existing law including, without limitation, the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993, 29 U.S.C. §2601
et seq. and the Americans with Disabilities Act, 42 U.S.C. §12101 et seq. 
 (c) Termination by Company for Cause.
The Company may terminate the Executive’s employment hereunder for Cause. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean any of the following: 

(i) conduct by the Executive constituting a material act of misconduct in connection with the performance of the Executive’s duties,
including (A) willful failure or refusal to perform material responsibilities that have been requested by the Board; (B) dishonesty to the Board with respect to any material matter; or (C) misappropriation of funds or property of the
Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates other than the occasional, customary and de minimis use of Company property for personal purposes; 

(ii) the commission by the Executive of acts satisfying the elements of (A) any felony or (B) a misdemeanor involving moral turpitude,
deceit, dishonesty or fraud; 
 (iii) any misconduct by the Executive, regardless of whether or not in the course of the Executive’s
employment, that would reasonably be expected to result in material injury or reputational harm to the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates if the Executive were to continue to be employed in the same position; 

(iv) continued non-performance by the Executive of substantially all of the Executive’s duties
hereunder (other than by reason of the Executive’s physical or mental illness, incapacity or disability) which has continued for more than 30 days following written notice of such non-performance from the
Board; 
 (v) a willful breach by the Executive of any of the provisions contained in Section 8 of this Agreement
or the Restrictive Covenants Agreement (as defined below); 
 (vi) a material violation by the Executive of any of the Company’s
written employment policies; or 

  
 3 













 (vii) the Executive’s failure to reasonably cooperate with a bona fide internal
investigation or an investigation by regulatory or law enforcement authorities, after being instructed by the Company to cooperate, or the willful destruction or failure to preserve documents or other materials known to be relevant to such
investigation or the inducement of others to fail to cooperate or to produce documents or other materials in connection with such investigation. 

(d) Termination by the Company without Cause. The Company may terminate the Executive’s employment hereunder at any time without
Cause. Any termination by the Company of the Executive’s employment under this Agreement which does not constitute a termination for Cause under Section 3(c) and does not result from the death or disability of the Executive under
Section 3(a) or (b) shall be deemed a termination without Cause. 
 (e) Termination by the Executive. The Executive may
terminate employment hereunder at any time for any reason, including but not limited to, Good Reason. For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean that the Executive has completed all steps of the Good Reason Process
(hereinafter defined) following the occurrence of any of the following events without the Executive’s consent (each, a “Good Reason Condition”): 

(i) a material diminution in the Executive’s responsibilities, authority or duties (including without limitation, and for
the avoidance of doubt, if during a Change in Control Period the Executive (i) no longer has at least the same or greater scope of responsibilities, authority, or duties as compared to the Executive’s responsibilities, authority, or duties
to the Company’s operations prior to the Change in Control Period, 
 (ii) no longer reports to the same or equivalent
job title as the Executive reported to prior to the Change in Control Period, which materially reduces the Executive’s responsibilities, authority, or duties to the Company’s operations, or (iii) is assigned any duties materially
inconsistent with the Executive’s status or role as CEO to the Company’s operations prior to the Change in Control Period); 

(ii) a material diminution in the Executive’s Base Salary except for across-the-board salary reductions based on the Company’s financial performance similarly affecting all or substantially all senior management employees of the Company, or a failure by the Company to
make any payment of compensation when due to the Executive; 
 (iii) a material change in the geographic location at which
the Executive provides services to the Company, such that there is an increase of at least twenty-five (25) miles of driving distance to such location from the Executive’s principal residence as of such change; or 

(iv) a material breach of this Agreement by the Company. 

The “Good Reason Process” consists of the following steps: 

(i) the Executive reasonably determines in good faith that a Good Reason Condition has occurred; 

  
 4 













 (ii) the Executive notifies the Company in writing of the first occurrence
of the Good Reason Condition within 60 days of the first occurrence of such condition; 
 (iii) the Executive cooperates in
good faith with the Company’s efforts, for a period of not less than 30 days following such notice (the “Cure Period”), to remedy the Good Reason Condition; 

(iv) notwithstanding such efforts, the Good Reason Condition continues to exist; and 

(v) the Executive terminates employment within 60 days after the end of the Cure Period. 

If the Company cures the Good Reason Condition during the Cure Period, Good Reason shall be deemed not to have occurred. 

If the Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated for any reason, the Company shall pay or provide to the Executive (or to the
Executive’s authorized representative or estate) (i) any Base Salary earned through the Date of Termination; (ii) unpaid expense reimbursements (subject to, and in accordance with, Section 2(c) of this Agreement); and (iii) any
vested benefits the Executive may have under any employee benefit plan of the Company through the Date of Termination, which vested benefits shall be paid and/or provided in accordance with the terms of such employee benefit plans (collectively, the
“Accrued Obligations”). 
 4. Notice and Date of Termination. 

(a) Notice of Termination. Except for termination as specified in Section 3(a), any termination of the Executive’s employment
by the Company or any such termination by the Executive shall be communicated by written Notice of Termination to the other party hereto. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Notice of Termination” shall mean a notice which shall
indicate the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon. 
 (b) Date of Termination. “Date of
Termination” shall mean: (i) if the Executive’s employment is terminated by death, the date of death; (ii) if the Executive’s employment is terminated on account of disability under Section 3(b) or by the Company
for Cause under Section 3(c), the date on which Notice of Termination is given; (iii) if the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause under Section 3(d), the date on which a Notice of Termination is given
or the date otherwise specified by the Company in the Notice of Termination; (iv) if the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Executive under Section 3(e) other than for Good Reason, 30 days after the date on which a Notice of
Termination is given, and (v) if the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Executive under Section 3(e) for Good Reason, the date on which a Notice of Termination is given after the end of the Cure Period. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in the event that the Executive gives a Notice of Termination to the Company, the Company may unilaterally accelerate the Date of Termination and such acceleration shall not result in a termination by the Company for purposes of this
Agreement.

 5. Severance Pay and Benefits Upon Termination by the Company without Cause or by the
Executive for Good Reason Outside the Change in Control Period. If the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause as provided in Section 3(d), or the Executive terminates employment for Good Reason as provided in
Section 3(e), each outside of the Change in Control Period (as defined below), then, in addition to the Accrued Obligations, and subject to (i) the Executive signing a separation agreement and release in a form and manner satisfactory to
the Company, which shall include, without limitation, a general release of claims against the Company and all related persons and entities, a reaffirmation of all of the Executive’s Continuing Obligations (as defined below), and shall provide
that if the Executive breaches any of the Continuing Obligations, all payments of the Severance Amount shall immediately cease (the “Separation Agreement and Release”), and (ii) the Separation Agreement and Release becoming
irrevocable, all within 60 days after the Date of Termination (or such shorter period as set forth in the Separation Agreement and Release), which, if and as applicable, shall include a seven (7) business or calendar day revocation period: 

(a) the Company shall pay the Executive an amount equal to the sum of (i) 12 months of the Executive’s Base Salary, (ii) the amount
of any bonus earned in the fiscal year ending prior to the Date of Termination to the extent not previously paid and that would have been paid if the Executive’s employment had not been terminated, and (iii) 100% of the Executive’s Target
Bonus for the then-current year ((i), (ii) and (iii) collectively, the “Severance Amount”); and 
 (b) for the
twelve (12) month period immediately following the Date of Termination, the Company shall arrange to provide the Executive life, disability, accident and health insurance benefits substantially similar to those provided to the Executive and his
dependents immediately prior to the Date of Termination or, if more favorable to the Executive, those provided to the Executive and his dependents immediately prior to the first occurrence of an event or circumstance constituting and resulting in a
termination by the Executive with Good Reason, at a no greater after-tax cost to the Executive than the after-tax cost to the Executive immediately prior to such date of
termination or occurrence. Benefits otherwise receivable by the Executive pursuant to this Section 5(b) shall be reduced to the extent benefits of the same type are received or made available to the Executive during the twelve (12) month
period following the Executive’s termination of employment (and any such benefits received by or made available to the Executive shall be reported to the Company by the Executive); provided, however, that the Company shall reimburse the
Executive for the excess, if any, of the after tax cost of such benefits to the Executive over such cost immediately prior to the Date of Termination or, if more favorable to the Executive, the first occurrence of a termination event or circumstance
constituting Good Reason. 
 The amounts payable under Section 5, to the extent taxable, shall be paid out in substantially equal installments in
accordance with the Company’s payroll practice over 12 months commencing within 60 days after the Date of Termination; provided, however, that if the 60-day period begins in one calendar year and ends in
a second calendar year, the Severance Amount, to the extent it qualifies as “non-qualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended (the “Code”), shall begin to be paid in the second calendar year by the last day of such 60-day period; provided, further, that the initial payment shall include a catch-up payment to cover amounts retroactive to the day immediately following the Date of Termination. Each payment pursuant to this Agreement is intended to constitute a separate payment for purposes of Treasury
Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2).

 6. Severance Pay and Benefits Upon Termination by the Company without Cause or by the
Executive for Good Reason within the Change in Control Period. The provisions of this Section 6 shall apply in lieu of, and expressly supersede, the provisions of Section 5 if (i) the Executive’s employment is terminated
either (a) by the Company without Cause as provided in Section 3(d), or (b) by the Executive for Good Reason as provided in Section 3(e), and (ii) the Date of Termination is within either 3 months before or 12 months after
the occurrence of the first event constituting a Change in Control (such period, the “Change in Control Period”). These provisions shall terminate and be of no further force or effect after a Change in Control Period. 

(a) if the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause as provided in Section 3(d) or the Executive terminates
employment for Good Reason as provided in Section 3(e) and the Date of Termination occurs during the Change in Control Period, then, in addition to the Accrued Obligations, and subject to the signing of the Separation Agreement and Release by
the Executive and the Separation Agreement and Release becoming fully effective, all within the time frame set forth in the Separation Agreement and Release but in no event more than 60 days after the Date of Termination: 

(i) the Company shall pay the Executive a lump sum in cash in an amount equal to the sum of (i) 24 months of the
Executive’s then current Base Salary (or the Executive’s Base Salary in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control, if higher) and (ii) the amount of any bonus earned in the fiscal year ending prior to the Date of Termination
to the extent not previously paid and that would have been paid if the Executive’s employment had not been terminated ((i) and (ii) collectively, the “Change in Control Payment”); and 

(ii) notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any applicable option agreement or other stock-based award agreement, all
time-based restricted stock awards, stock options and other stock-based awards subject to vesting that are granted immediately on or at any time following the Effective Date held by the Executive (the “Unvested Equity Awards”) shall
immediately accelerate and become fully exercisable or nonforfeitable as of the later of (i) the Date of Termination or (ii) the Effective Date of the Separation Agreement and Release (the “Accelerated Vesting Date”);
provided that any termination or forfeiture of the unvested portion of such Unvested Equity Awards that would otherwise occur on the Date of Termination in the absence of this Agreement will be delayed until the Effective Date of the
Separation Agreement and Release and will only occur if the vesting pursuant to this subsection does not occur due to the absence of the Separation Agreement and Release becoming fully effective within the time period set forth therein.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no additional vesting of the Unvested Equity Awards shall occur during the period between the Executive’s Date of Termination and the Accelerated Vesting Date; and 

(iii) for the eighteen (18) month period immediately following the Date of Termination, the Company shall arrange to
provide the Executive life, disability, accident and health insurance benefits substantially similar to those provided to the 

  
 7 













 
Executive and his dependents immediately prior to the Date of Termination or, if more favorable to the Executive, those provided to the Executive and his dependents immediately prior to the first
occurrence of an event or circumstance constituting and resulting in a termination by the Executive with Good Reason, at a no greater after-tax cost to the Executive than the
after-tax cost to the Executive immediately prior to such date of termination or occurrence. Benefits otherwise receivable by the Executive pursuant to this Section 6(a)(iii) shall be reduced to the
extent benefits of the same type are received or made available to the Executive during the eighteen (18) month period following the Executive’s termination of employment (and any such benefits received by or made available to the
Executive shall be reported to the Company by the Executive); provided, however, that the Company shall reimburse the Executive for the excess, if any, of the after tax cost of such benefits to the Executive over such cost immediately prior to the
Date of Termination or, if more favorable to the Executive, the first occurrence of a termination event or circumstance constituting Good Reason. 
 The
amounts payable under this Section 6(a), to the extent taxable, shall be paid or commence to be paid within 60 days after the Date of Termination; provided, however, that if the 60-day period
begins in one calendar year and ends in a second calendar year, such payments to the extent they qualify as “non-qualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code,
shall be paid or commence to be paid in the second calendar year by the last day of such 60-day period. 

(b) Additional Limitation. 

(i) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that the amount of any compensation, payment or
distribution by the Company to or for the benefit of the Executive, whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise, calculated in a manner consistent with Section 280G of the Code,
and the applicable regulations thereunder (the “Aggregate Payments”), would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, then the Aggregate Payments shall be reduced (but not below zero) so that the sum of
all of the Aggregate Payments shall be $1.00 less than the amount at which the Executive becomes subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code; provided that such reduction shall only occur if it would result in the Executive
receiving a higher After Tax Amount (as defined below) than the Executive would receive if the Aggregate Payments were not subject to such reduction. In such event, the Aggregate Payments shall be reduced in the following order, in each case, in
reverse chronological order beginning with the Aggregate Payments that are to be paid the furthest in time from consummation of the transaction that is subject to Section 280G of the Code: (1) cash payments not subject to Section 409A
of the Code; (2) cash payments subject to Section 409A of the Code; (3) equity-based payments and acceleration; and (4) non-cash forms of benefits; provided that in the case of all the
foregoing Aggregate Payments all amounts or payments that are not subject to calculation under Treas. Reg. §1.280G-1, Q&A-24(b) or (c) shall be reduced
before any amounts that are subject to calculation under Treas. Reg. §1.280G-1, Q&A-24(b) or (c). 

  
 8 













 (ii) For purposes of this Section 6(b), the “After Tax
Amount” means the amount of the Aggregate Payments less all federal, state, and local income, excise and employment taxes imposed on the Executive as a result of the Executive’s receipt of the Aggregate Payments. For purposes of
determining the After Tax Amount, the Executive shall be deemed to pay federal income taxes at the highest marginal rate of federal income taxation applicable to individuals for the calendar year in which the determination is to be made, and state
and local income taxes at the highest marginal rates of individual taxation in each applicable state and locality, net of the maximum reduction in federal income taxes which could be obtained from deduction of such state and local taxes. 

(iii) The determination as to whether a reduction in the Aggregate Payments shall be made pursuant to Section 6(b)(i)
shall be made by a nationally recognized accounting firm selected by the Company (the “Accounting Firm”), which shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to the Company and the Executive within 15 business days of the Date
of Termination, if applicable, or at such earlier time as is reasonably requested by the Company or the Executive. Any determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding upon the Company and the Executive. 

(c) Definitions. For purposes of this Section 6, the following terms shall have the following meanings: 

“Change in Control” shall mean any of the following: (i) the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the
Company on a consolidated basis to an unrelated person or entity (or group of persons or entities acting in concert), other than Thoma Bravo, LLC and its investment funds and affiliates (collectively, “TB”), (ii) a merger,
reorganization or consolidation pursuant to which an unrelated person or entity (or group of persons or entities acting in concert), other than TB, acquires shares of capital stock of the Company (y) possessing the voting power to elect a
majority of the Company’s board of directors or (z) representing more than fifty percent (50%) of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company, (iii) the sale of more than fifty percent (50%) of the issued and
outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company to an unrelated person or entity (or group of persons or entities acting in concert), other than TB, or (iv) any other transaction other than a Public Sale (as hereinafter defined) in which the
owners of the Company’s outstanding voting power immediately prior to such transaction do not, directly or indirectly, own at least a majority of the outstanding voting power of the Company or any successor entity (or its ultimate parent, if
applicable) immediately following completion of the transaction other than as a result of the acquisition of securities directly from the Company, excluding, in the case of each of clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv), the issuance of securities by the
Company in a financing transaction approved by the Board. “Public Sale” means any sale pursuant to a registered public offering under the Securities Act or any sale to the public pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities
Act effected through a broker, dealer or market maker. 
 7. Section 409A. 

(a) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if at the time of the Executive’s separation from service within the
meaning of Section 409A of the Code, the Company determines that the Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 

  
 9 













 
409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, then to the extent any payment or benefit that the Executive becomes entitled to under this Agreement or otherwise on account of the Executive’s separation from
service would be considered deferred compensation otherwise subject to the 20 percent additional tax imposed pursuant to Section 409A(a) of the Code as a result of the application of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, such payment
shall not be payable and such benefit shall not be provided until the date that is the earlier of (A) six months and one day after the Executive’s separation from service, or (B) the Executive’s death. If any such delayed cash
payment is otherwise payable on an installment basis, the first payment shall include a catch-up payment covering amounts that would otherwise have been paid during the
six-month period but for the application of this provision, and the balance of the installments shall be payable in accordance with their original schedule. 

(b) All in-kind benefits provided and expenses eligible for reimbursement under this Agreement shall
be provided by the Company or incurred by the Executive during the time periods set forth in this Agreement. All reimbursements shall be paid as soon as administratively practicable, but in no event shall any reimbursement be paid after the last day
of the taxable year following the taxable year in which the expense was incurred. The amount of in-kind benefits provided or reimbursable expenses incurred in one taxable year shall not affect the in-kind benefits to be provided or the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other taxable year (except for any lifetime or other aggregate limitation applicable to medical expenses). Such right to
reimbursement or in-kind benefits is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit. 

(c) To the extent that any payment or benefit described in this Agreement constitutes
“non-qualified deferred compensation” under Section 409A of the Code, and to the extent that such payment or benefit is payable upon the Executive’s termination of employment, then such
payments or benefits shall be payable only upon the Executive’s “separation from service.” The determination of whether and when a separation from service has occurred shall be made in accordance with the presumptions set forth in
Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h). 
 (d) The parties intend that this Agreement will be
administered in accordance with Section 409A of the Code. To the extent that any provision of this Agreement is ambiguous as to its compliance with Section 409A of the Code, the provision shall be read in such a manner so that all payments
hereunder comply with Section 409A of the Code. Each payment pursuant to this Agreement or the Restrictive Covenants Agreement is intended to constitute a separate payment for purposes of Treasury Regulation
Section 1.409A-2(b)(2). The parties agree that this Agreement may be amended, as reasonably requested by either party, and as may be necessary to fully comply with Section 409A of the Code and all
related rules and regulations in order to preserve the payments and benefits provided hereunder without additional cost to either party. 

(e) The Company makes no representation or warranty and shall have no liability to the Executive or any other person if any provisions of this
Agreement are determined to constitute deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code but do not satisfy an exemption from, or the conditions of, such Section.

 8. Continuing Obligations. 

(a) Restrictive Covenants Agreement. The terms of (i) the Key Employee Agreement by and between Compuware Corporation and
Executive, dated July 1, 2011, and (ii) the Management Incentive Unit Agreement between Executive and Compuware Parent LLC dated as of May 8, 2015 (collectively, the “Restrictive Covenants Agreement”), attached hereto
as Exhibit A, continue to be in full force and effect. For purposes of this Agreement, the obligations in this Section 8 and those that arise in the Restrictive Covenants Agreement and any other agreement relating to confidentiality,
assignment of inventions, or other restrictive covenants shall collectively be referred to as the “Continuing Obligations.” 

(b) Third-Party Agreements and Rights. The Executive hereby confirms that the Executive is not bound by the terms of any agreement with
any previous employer or other party which restricts in any way the Executive’s use or disclosure of information, other than confidentiality restrictions (if any), or the Executive’s engagement in any business. The Executive represents to
the Company that the Executive’s execution of this Agreement, the Executive’s employment with the Company and the performance of the Executive’s proposed duties for the Company will not violate any obligations the Executive may have
to any such previous employer or other party. In the Executive’s work for the Company, the Executive will not disclose or make use of any information in violation of any agreements with or rights of any such previous employer or other party,
and the Executive will not bring to the premises of the Company any copies or other tangible embodiments of non-public information belonging to or obtained from any such previous employment or other party.

 (c) Litigation and Regulatory Cooperation. During and after the Executive’s employment, the Executive shall cooperate fully
with the Company in (i) the defense or prosecution of any claims or actions now in existence or which may be brought in the future against or on behalf of the Company which relate to events or occurrences that transpired while the Executive was
employed by the Company, and (ii) the investigation, whether internal or external, of any matters about which the Company believes the Executive may have knowledge or information. The Executive’s full cooperation in connection with such
claims, actions or investigations shall include, but not be limited to, being available to meet with counsel to answer questions or to prepare for discovery or trial and to act as a witness on behalf of the Company at mutually convenient times.
During and after the Executive’s employment, the Executive also shall cooperate fully with the Company in connection with any investigation or review of any federal, state or local regulatory authority as any such investigation or review
relates to events or occurrences that transpired while the Executive was employed by the Company. The Company shall reimburse the Executive for any reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the Executive’s performance of obligations pursuant to this Section 8(c). 

(d) Relief. The Executive agrees that it would be difficult to measure any damages caused to the Company which might result from any
breach by the Executive of the Continuing Obligations, and that in any event money damages would be an inadequate remedy for any such breach. Accordingly, the Executive agrees that if the Executive breaches, or proposes to breach, any portion of the
Continuing Obligations, the Company shall be entitled, in addition to all other remedies that it may have, to an injunction or other appropriate equitable relief to restrain any such breach without showing or proving any actual damage to the
Company. 

  
 11 













 (e) Protected Disclosures and Other Protected Action. Nothing in this Agreement shall
be interpreted or applied to prohibit the Executive from making any good faith report to any governmental agency or other governmental entity (a “Government Agency”) concerning any act or omission that the Executive reasonably
believes constitutes a possible violation of federal or state law or making other disclosures that are protected under the anti- retaliation or whistleblower provisions of applicable federal or state law or regulation. In addition, nothing contained
in this Agreement limits the Executive’s ability to communicate with any Government Agency or otherwise participate in any investigation or proceeding that may be conducted by any Government Agency, including the Executive’s ability to
provide documents or other information, without notice to the Company. In addition, for the avoidance of doubt, pursuant to the federal Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016, the Executive shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal
or state trade secret law or under this Agreement or the Restrictive Covenants Agreement for the disclosure of a trade secret that (a) is made (i) in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official, either directly or
indirectly, or to an attorney; and (ii) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (b) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under
seal. 
 9. Consent to Jurisdiction. The parties hereby consent to the jurisdiction of the state and federal courts of the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Accordingly, with respect to any such court action, the Executive (a) submits to the personal jurisdiction of such courts; (b) consents to service of process; and (c) waives any other requirement
(whether imposed by statute, rule of court, or otherwise) with respect to personal jurisdiction or service of process. 
 10.
Integration. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements between the parties concerning such subject matter, including without limitation
the Prior Agreement, provided that the Restrictive Covenants Agreement, the Continuing Obligations, and the Equity Documents remain in full force and effect. 

11. Withholding; Tax Effect. All payments made by the Company to the Executive under this Agreement shall be net of any tax or other
amounts required to be withheld by the Company under applicable law. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to require the Company to make any payments to compensate the Executive for any adverse tax effect associated with any payments or
benefits or for any deduction or withholding from any payment or benefit. 
 12. Assignment. Neither the Executive nor the Company
may make any assignment of this Agreement or any interest in it, by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of the other; provided, however, that the Company may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement
(including the Restrictive Covenants Agreement) without the Executive’s consent to any affiliate or to any person or entity with whom the Company shall hereafter effect a reorganization, consolidate with, or merge into or to whom it transfers
all or substantially all of its properties or assets; provided further that if the Executive remains employed or becomes 

  
 12 













 
employed by the Company, the purchaser or any of their affiliates in connection with any such transaction then the Executive shall not be entitled to any payments, benefits or vesting pursuant to
Section 5 or pursuant to Section 6 of this Agreement. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Executive and the Company, and each of the Executive’s and the Company’s respective successors, executors,
administrators, heirs and permitted assigns. 
 13. Enforceability. If any portion or provision of this Agreement (including, without
limitation, any portion or provision of any section of this Agreement) shall to any extent be declared illegal or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then the remainder of this Agreement, or the application of such portion or
provision in circumstances other than those as to which it is so declared illegal or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each portion and provision of this Agreement shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by
law. 
 14. Survival. The provisions of this Agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement and/or the termination of the
Executive’s employment to the extent necessary to effectuate the terms contained herein. 
 15. Waiver. No waiver of any
provision hereof shall be effective unless made in writing and signed by the waiving party. The failure of any party to require the performance of any term or obligation of this Agreement, or the waiver by any party of any breach of this Agreement,
shall not prevent any subsequent enforcement of such term or obligation or be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach. 
 16.
Notices. Any notices, requests, demands and other communications provided for by this Agreement shall be sufficient if in writing and delivered in person or sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier service or by registered or
certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, to the Executive at the last address the Executive has filed in writing with the Company or, in the case of the Company, at its main offices, attention of the Board. 

17. Amendment. This Agreement may be amended or modified only by a written instrument signed by the Executive and by a duly authorized
representative of the Company. 
 18. Effect on Other Plans and Agreements. An election by the Executive to resign for Good Reason
under the provisions of this Agreement shall not be deemed a voluntary termination of employment by the Executive for the purpose of interpreting the provisions of any of the Company’s benefit plans, programs or policies. Nothing in this
Agreement shall be construed to limit the rights of the Executive under the Company’s benefit plans, programs or policies except as otherwise provided in Section 8 hereof, and except that the Executive shall have no rights to any severance
benefits under any Company severance pay plan, offer letter or otherwise. In the event that the Executive is party to an agreement with the Company providing for payments or benefits under such plan or agreement and under this Agreement, the terms
of this Agreement shall govern and the Executive may receive payment under this Agreement only and not both. Further, Section 5 and Section 6 of this Agreement are mutually exclusive and in no event shall the Executive be entitled to
payments or benefits pursuant to both Section 5 and Section 6 of this Agreement.

 19. Governing Law; Payments. This is a Massachusetts contract and shall be construed
under and be governed in all respects by the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts without giving effect to the conflict of laws principles thereof. With respect to any disputes concerning federal law, such disputes shall be determined in
accordance with the law as it would be interpreted and applied by the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit. The Company shall pay to the Executive all legal fees and expenses incurred by the Executive in disputing in good faith any
issue hereunder relating to the termination of the Executive’s employment, in seeking in good faith to obtain or enforce any benefit or right provided by this Agreement or in connection with any tax audit or proceeding to the extent
attributable to the application of section 4999 of the Code to any payment or benefit provided hereunder. Such payments shall be made within five (5) business days after delivery of the Executive’s written requests for payment accompanied
with such evidence of fees and expenses incurred as the Company reasonably may require; provided that in no event will payment be made for request that are submitted later than December 15th of the year following the year in which the expense is
incurred. 
 20. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and
delivered shall be taken to be an original; but such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same document.

WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement effective on the “Effective Date.”
