Mountain View, CA



Dear Greg:



As we have discussed, your employment will be terminating. This letter agreement will set
forth the terms and conditions of the separation agreement that Borland Software Corporation (the
“Company” or “Borland”) is offering to you to aid in your employment transition.



1. Separation. Your last day of work with the Company and your employment termination date
will be February 20, 2009 (the “Separation Date”). From now until the Separation Date, you will
remain employed during a transition period in order to assist the Company with the orderly
transition of your work responsibilities and projects. During this time, you will continue to
receive your regular compensation and will be required to continue to abide by the Company’s
regular policies and procedures, act professionally, and work diligently and on a full-time basis.
If the Company determines you have failed to meet these obligations, all of the Company’s remaining
obligations hereunder, including the obligation to pay any portion of the Severance Benefits, will
cease and the Company will have the option of terminating your employment immediately.



a. If you resign, or if the Company terminates your employment for Cause (as defined below),
before the Separation Date, you will not be eligible for any portion of the Severance Benefits (as
defined herein).



b. For purposes of this agreement, “Cause” shall mean termination of your employment with
Borland for any of the following reasons: (i) theft, embezzlement, misconduct, misappropriation of
funds or property, or fraud against or with respect to the business of Borland; (ii) breach by you
of any material term of any agreement between you and Borland; (iii) your conviction of any crime
that impairs your performance of duties for Borland; (iv) as a result of your reckless or willful
misconduct, you commit any act that causes material injury to the financial condition or business
reputation of Borland, or you knowingly fail to take reasonable and appropriate actions to prevent
the same; or (v) after written notice to you, and a reasonable opportunity to correct, you fail to
satisfactorily perform your job duties, or otherwise fail to perform any of your assigned duties
for Borland.



2. Severance. If you timely enter into this Agreement and, on or timely after the Separation
Date, you sign, date and return to the Company the Separation Date Release attached hereto as
Exhibit A, then the Company will provide you with the payments and benefits set forth below as your
sole severance benefits (the “Severance Benefits”):



a. Lump Sum Severance Payment. The Company will pay you, as severance, $140,000.00 which is
equivalent to six (6) months of your base salary in effect as of the Separation Date, subject to
standard payroll deductions and withholdings, payable in one lump sum within ten (10) days
following the date you sign and return the Separation Date Release to the Company, provided that it
is timely returned to the Company.



b. Health Insurance. You will continue to receive health insurance benefits under the
Company’s group plans, as currently enrolled, through the last day of the month in which you
terminate. To the extent provided by the federal COBRA law or, if applicable, state insurance
laws, and by the Company’s current group health insurance policies (collectively, “COBRA”), you
will be eligible to continue your group health insurance benefits at your own expense following the
Separation Date. Later, you may be able to convert to an individual policy through the provider of
the Company’s health insurance, if you wish. You will be provided with a separate notice
describing your rights and obligations under COBRA on or after the Separation Date. The Company,
as part of this Agreement and an additional severance benefit, will make COBRA payments on your
behalf directly to the COBRA provider until the earliest to occur of: (i) the date you are no
longer eligible to receive continuation coverage pursuant to COBRA, (ii) twelve (12) months from
the Separation Date or (iii) the date on which you obtain health comparable health coverage.  You
agree to notify Borland promptly after you obtain alternative health coverage. T



3. Accrued Salary And Paid Time Off. The Company will pay you all accrued but unused vacation
earned through the Separation Date, subject to standard payroll deductions and withholdings



4. Stock Options. Under the terms of your stock option and stock grant agreements and the
applicable plan documents, vesting of your stock options and grants will cease as of the Separation
Date. Your right to exercise any vested shares, and all other rights and obligations with respect
to your stock options and grants, will be as set forth in your stock option and grant agreements,
grant notices and applicable plan documents.



5. Other Compensation or Benefits. You acknowledge that, except as expressly provided in this
Agreement, you will not earn or receive any compensation, including without limitation salary,
bonus, commissions, or severance, or any benefits before or after the Separation Date, with the
exception of any vested right you may have under the express terms of a written ERISA-qualified
benefit plan (e.g., 401(k) account) or any vested option shares.



6. Expense Reimbursements. You agree that, within ten (10) days after the Separation Date, you
will submit your final documented expense reimbursement statement reflecting all business expenses
you incurred through the Separation Date, if any, for which you seek reimbursement. The Company
will process your request for these expenses pursuant to its regular business practice.



7. Return of Company Property. On the Separation Date, or earlier if requested by the
Company, you agree to return to the Company all Company documents (and all copies thereof) and
other Company property that you have in your possession or control, including, but not limited to,
Company products, samples, engineering materials, demo equipment, files, notes, drawings, records,
business plans and forecasts, financial information, specifications, computer-recorded information,
tangible property (including, but not limited to, computers and cellular phone), credit cards,
entry cards, identification badges and keys; and, any materials of any kind that contain or embody
any proprietary or confidential information of the Company (and all reproductions thereof). You
agree that you will make a diligent search to locate any such documents, property and information
on the Separation Date. In addition, if you have used any personally owned computer, server, or
e-mail system to receive, store, review, prepare or transmit any Company confidential or
proprietary data, materials or information, then on the Separation Date, you shall provide the
Company with a computer-useable copy of such information and then permanently delete and expunge
such Company confidential or proprietary information from those systems; and you agree to provide
the Company access to your system as requested to verify that the necessary copying and/or deletion
is done. Your timely compliance with this paragraph is a condition precedent to your receipt of
the Severance Benefits.



8. Proprietary Information and Non-Solicitation Obligations. You acknowledge, reaffirm, and
agree to abide by your continuing obligations under your Employee Confidentiality and Assignment of
Inventions Agreement (“Employee Confidentiality Agreement”), including the confidentiality and
non-solicitation provisions provided therein, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit B and
incorporate herein by reference.



9. Confidentiality. You will hold the provisions of this Agreement in strictest confidence
and you will not publicize or disclose the terms of this Agreement or its existence in any manner
whatsoever; provided, however, that: (a) you may disclose this Agreement in confidence to your
immediate family; (b) the parties may disclose this Agreement in confidence to their respective
attorneys, accountants, auditors, tax preparer, and financial advisors; (c) the Company may
disclose this Agreement as necessary to fulfill standard or legally required corporate reporting or
disclosure requirements; and (d) the parties may disclose this Agreement insofar as such disclosure
may be necessary to enforce its terms or as otherwise required by law. In particular, and without
limitation, you agree not to disclose the terms of this Agreement to any current or former Company
employee.



10. Nondisparagement. You agree not to disparage the Company, its officers, directors,
employees, shareholders, and agents, in any manner likely to be harmful to its or their business,
business reputation, or personal reputation; provided that you will respond accurately and fully to
any question, inquiry or request for information when required by legal process.



11. No Admissions. This Agreement is entered into to avoid unnecessary disputes and effect a
professional separation. Neither party admits to any wrongdoing by entering into this Agreement.



12. No Voluntary Adverse Action; Cooperation. You agree that you will not voluntarily assist
any person in preparing, bringing, or pursuing any litigation, arbitration, administrative claim or
other formal proceeding against the Company, its parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, distributors,
officers, directors, employees or agents, unless pursuant to subpoena or other compulsion of law.
Further, you agree that you will notify Greg Wrenn, the Company’s General Counsel, if you are asked
to so assist any person or are subject to subpoena or other compulsion of law in connection with
any litigation, arbitration, administrative claim or other formal proceeding against the Company,
its parents, subsidiaries, distributors, officers, directors, employees or agents. Further, you
agree to voluntarily cooperate with the Company if you have knowledge of facts relevant to any
threatened or pending claims or litigation against the Company by making yourself reasonably
available without further compensation for interviews with the Company’s counsel, for preparing for
and providing deposition testimony, and for preparing for and providing trial testimony.



13. Release of Claims. In exchange for the consideration under this Agreement to which you
would not otherwise be entitled, you hereby generally and completely release the Company and its
directors, officers, employees, shareholders, partners, agents, attorneys, predecessors,
successors, parent and subsidiary entities, insurers, affiliates, and assigns from any and all
claims, liabilities and obligations, both known and unknown, that arise out of or are in any way
related to events, acts, conduct, or omissions occurring at any time prior to and including the
date you sign this Agreement. This general release includes, but is not limited to: (a) all claims
arising out of or in any way related to your employment with the Company or the termination of that
employment; (b) all claims related to your compensation or benefits from the Company, including
salary, bonuses, commissions, vacation pay, expense reimbursements, severance pay, fringe benefits,
stock, stock options, or any other ownership interests in the Company; (c) all claims for breach of
contract, wrongful termination, and breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing;
(d) all tort claims, including claims for fraud, defamation, emotional distress, and discharge in
violation of public policy; and (e) all federal, state, and local statutory claims, including
claims for discrimination, harassment, retaliation, attorneys’ fees, or other claims arising under
the federal Civil Rights Act of 1964 (as amended), the federal Americans with Disabilities Act of
1990, the California Labor Code (as amended), the California Fair Employment and Housing Act (as
amended) and any other federal, state or local statute or regulation. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, you are not hereby releasing the Company from any obligation it may otherwise have to
indemnify you for your acts within the course and scope of your employment with the Company,
pursuant to the articles and bylaws of the Company, any fully executed written agreement with the
Company, or applicable law. Further, notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement
shall prevent you from filing, cooperating with, or participating in any proceeding before the
Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the Department of Labor, the California Department of Fair
Employment and Housing or any other state anti-discrimination agency, except that you acknowledge
and agree that you shall not recover any monetary benefits in connection with any such claim,
charge or proceeding with regard to any claim released herein. You represent that you have no
lawsuits, claims or actions pending in your name, or on behalf of any other person or entity,
against the Company or any other person or entity subject to the release granted in this paragraph.



14. Section 1542 Waiver. In granting the release herein, which includes claims which may be
unknown to you at present, you acknowledge that you have read and understand Section 1542 of the
California Civil Code: “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.” You hereby
expressly waive and relinquish all rights and benefits under that section and any law or legal
principle of similar effect in any jurisdiction with respect to the releases granted herein,
including but not limited to the release of unknown and unsuspected claims granted in this
Agreement.



15. Dispute Resolution. To ensure rapid and economical resolution of any disputes regarding
this Agreement, the parties hereby agree that any and all claims, disputes or controversies of any
nature whatsoever arising out of, or relating to, this Agreement, or its interpretation,
enforcement, breach, performance or execution, your employment with the Company, or the termination
of such employment, shall be resolved, to the fullest extent permitted by law, by final, binding
and confidential arbitration in San Jose, CA conducted before a single arbitrator by JAMS, Inc.
(“JAMS”) or its successor, under the then applicable JAMS arbitration rules. The parties each
acknowledge that by agreeing to this arbitration procedure, they waive the right to resolve any
such dispute, claim or demand through a trial by jury or judge or by administrative proceeding.
You will have the right to be represented by legal counsel at any arbitration proceeding. The
arbitrator shall: (i) have the authority to compel adequate discovery for the resolution of the
dispute and to award such relief as would otherwise be available under applicable law in a court
proceeding; and (ii) issue a written statement signed by the arbitrator regarding the disposition
of each claim and the relief, if any, awarded as to each claim, the reasons for the award, and the
arbitrator’s essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based. The arbitrator, and
not a court, shall also be authorized to determine whether the provisions of this paragraph apply
to a dispute, controversy, or claim sought to be resolved in accordance with these arbitration
procedures. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to prevent either you or the Company from
obtaining injunctive relief in court to prevent irreparable harm pending the conclusion of any
arbitration.



16. Miscellaneous. This Agreement, including Exhibit A and Exhibit B, constitutes the
complete, final and exclusive embodiment of the entire agreement between you and the Company with
regard to its subject matter. It is entered into without reliance on any promise or
representation, written or oral, other than those expressly contained herein, and it supersedes any
other such promises, warranties or representations. This Agreement may not be modified or amended
except in a writing signed by both you and a duly authorized officer of the Company. This
Agreement will bind the heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns of both you and the
Company, and inure to the benefit of both you and the Company, their heirs, successors and assigns.
If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in
part, this determination will not affect any other provision of this Agreement and the provision in
question will be modified so as to be rendered enforceable. This Agreement will be deemed to have
been entered into and will be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of
Texas as applied to contracts made and to be performed entirely within Texas. Any ambiguity in
this Agreement shall not be construed against either party as the drafter. Any waiver of a breach
of this Agreement shall be in writing and shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any successive
breach. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts and facsimile signatures will suffice as
original signatures.



If this Agreement is acceptable to you, please sign below and return the original to me on
or before fourteen (14) calendar days from the date you receive this Agreement. The offer
contained in this Agreement will automatically expire if we do not receive the fully executed
Agreement from you by the aforementioned date. Do not sign the Release attached as Exhibit A until
on or within twenty-one (21) days after the Separation Date.



Please contact me if you have any questions about this Agreement or the matters discussed
herein.



Sincerely,



Borland Software Corporation

Exhibit A

SEPARATION DATE RELEASE




In exchange for the Severance Package to be provided to me by Borland Software Corporation
(the “Company”) pursuant to the separation agreement between me and the Company dated February 6,
2009 (the “Agreement”), I, Gregory J. Wrenn, hereby provide the following Separation Date Release
(the “Release”).



I hereby generally and completely release the Company, its parent, and its and their
directors, officers, employees, shareholders, partners, agents, attorneys, predecessors,
successors, parent and subsidiary entities, insurers, affiliates, and assigns from any and all
claims, liabilities and obligations, both known and unknown, arising out of or in any way related
to events, acts, conduct, or omissions occurring at any time prior to or on the date that I sign
this Release. This general release includes, but is not limited to: (1) all claims arising out of
or in any way related to my employment with the Company or the termination of that employment; (2)
all claims related to my compensation or benefits from the Company, including salary, bonuses,
commissions, vacation pay, expense reimbursements, severance pay, fringe benefits, stock, stock
options, or any other ownership or equity interests in the Company; (3) all claims for breach of
contract, wrongful termination, and breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing;
(4) all tort claims, including claims for fraud, defamation, emotional distress, and discharge in
violation of public policy; and (5) all federal, state, and local statutory claims, including

the federal Civil Rights Act of 1964 (as amended), the federal Americans with Disabilities Act of
1990, the California Labor Code (as amended), and the California Fair Employment and Housing Act
(as amended). Notwithstanding the foregoing, I am not releasing the Company hereby from any
obligation to indemnify me for my acts within the course and scope of my employment with the
Company, pursuant to the articles and bylaws of the Company, any fully executed written agreement
with the Company, or applicable law. Further, notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this
Release shall prevent me from filing, cooperating with, or participating in any proceeding before
the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the Department of Labor, the California Department of
Fair Employment and Housing or any other state anti-discrimination agency, except that I
acknowledge and agree that I shall not recover any monetary benefits in connection with any such
claim, charge or proceeding with regard to any claim released herein. I represent that I have no
lawsuits, claims or actions pending in my name, or on behalf of any other person or entity,
against the Company or any other person or entity subject to the release granted in this
paragraph.



I acknowledge that I am knowingly and voluntarily waiving and releasing any rights I may
have under the ADEA, and that the consideration given for the waiver and release in the preceding
paragraph is in addition to anything of value to which I am already entitled. I further
acknowledge that I have been advised by this writing that: (1) my waiver and release do not apply
to any rights or claims that may arise after the date I sign this Release; (2) I should consult
with an attorney prior to signing this Release (although I may choose voluntarily not to do so);
(3) I have twenty-one (21) days from the Separation Date to consider this Release (although I may
choose voluntarily to sign it earlier); (4) I have seven (7) days following the date I sign this
Release to revoke it by providing written notice of revocation to the Vice President of Human
Resources; and (5) this Release will not be effective until the date upon which the revocation
period has expired, which will be the eighth calendar day after the date I sign it, provided that
I do not revoke it (the “Effective Date of the Retirement Date Release”).



I UNDERSTAND THAT THIS AGREEMENT INCLUDES A RELEASE OF ALL KNOWN AND UNKNOWN CLAIMS. I
acknowledge that I have read and understand Section 1542 of the California Civil Code which reads
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.” I hereby expressly
waive and relinquish all rights and benefits under that section and any law or legal principle of
similar effect in any jurisdiction with respect to my release of claims herein, including but not
limited to the release of unknown and unsuspected claims.



I hereby acknowledge that, on the Separation Date, the Company provided me with the ADEA
Disclosure information required under Title 29 U.S. Code Section 626(f)(1)(H). Furthermore, I
hereby represent that I have been paid all compensation owed and for all hours worked, I have
received all the leave and leave benefits and protections for which I am eligible, pursuant to the
federal Family and Medical Leave Act, the California Family Rights Act, or otherwise, and I have
not suffered any on-the-job injury for which I have not already filed a workers’ compensation
claim.
