	 	Re:	Change in Status/Consulting Services 

Dear Stephan: 
 As per our discussions and
agreements, this letter confirms certain matters regarding your employment status with Demandware, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, “Demandware”) and future services you have agreed to provide to Demandware once your employment has
terminated. 
  

	 	1.	Your employment with Demandware will continue until August 31, 2010 (the “Employment Termination Date”). Through Employment Termination Date, you will
continue to receive your current base salary and employee benefits, but you will not be entitled to any bonus or other incentive compensation. Through August 31, 2010, you will continue to provide services as may be requested by me or by other
members of the Demandware executive team (and as approved by me). Effective as of the Employment Termination Date, your employment will be deemed terminated and all employment related benefits, including the current monthly reimbursement of your
health insurance costs, shall cease. 

  

	 	2.	 Commencing September 1, 2010, you will provide consulting services to Demandware as an independent contractor (the “Consulting
Services”). The Consulting Services shall be provided primarily in Europe and in providing the Consulting Services you will be under the direction of Demandware’s European Operations Management (“EOM”), which is currently Jeff
Barnett. It is anticipated that Demandware may hire a European general manager and, if Demandware so determines, EOM may be transitioned to this general manager. The Consulting Services shall be those services as may be directed by EOM or by me, and
may include the following: assisting in formulating European expansion strategy, development of partnerships, and participation in industry conferences, speeches, public relations activities, key customer meetings, employee recruitment and the
recruitment of participants in Demandware’s Link Technology program. Under no circumstances will you be authorized to make any financial or contractual commitments on behalf of Demandware or its subsidiaries. It is anticipated that you will
provide Consulting Services for approximately 60% of the business days during each calendar month (on average, three days per work week). For the Consulting Services, Demandware (or, at Demandware’s discretion, its subsidiary, Demandware GmbH)
will pay you $13,750 per calendar month. At the conclusion of each calendar month, you and the EOM will assess the number of days of Consulting Services you provided during such month and, to the extent that you provided Consulting Services in
excess of 60% of the working days during such month, you will be paid additional compensation of $1,000 per additional working day; provided, however, that in no event shall total compensation paid for the Consulting Services in a calendar month
exceed $22,916.67. Either you or Demandware may terminate the Consulting Services at any time, in

which event Demandware’s entire liability to you will be to pay you for the Consulting Services rendered through the effective date of termination and you acknowledge and agree that you will
not be entitled to any severance or similar benefits from Demandware. The period of time during which you provide the Consulting Services shall be referred to herein as the “Consulting Period.” 

 

	 	3.	Through the end of the Consulting Period, the Company shall maintain your current email address at the Company (sschambach@demandware.com) or such other email address
as you and the Company agree in writing (collectively, the “Email Address”), and the Company shall not directly or indirectly limit, restrict or otherwise prohibit you in any way or manner from accessing the Email Address or from
reading, downloading and responding to correspondence sent to the Email Address. 

  

	 	4.	Your status as a member of the Board and as Chairman of the Board shall not be affected by this letter, the transactions contemplated hereby and your termination of
employment with Demandware. To the extent that you are required to travel to the United States from Germany for purposes of attending a meeting of the Board of Directors of Demandware, Demandware will reimburse the cost of flying Business Class for
such trips. All other approved travel and authorized expenses (whether to the United States or otherwise) shall be reimbursed in accordance with Demandware’s existing travel and entertainment policy and, without limiting the foregoing, the
extent of reimbursement for air travel shall be limited to the cost of coach travel. 

  

	 	5.	Demandware shall undertake to make deductions, withholdings and tax reports with respect to payments and benefits under this letter to the extent that it reasonably and
in good faith determines that it is required to make such deductions, withholdings and tax reports. Payments under this letter are stated in gross amounts and shall be paid in amounts net of any such deductions or withholdings. Nothing in this
letter shall be construed to require Demandware to make any payments to compensate you for any adverse tax effect associated with any payments or benefits or for any deduction or withholding from any payment or benefit. Without limiting the
foregoing, you acknowledge and agree that you will be responsible for any and all withholding and other taxes that may be applicable to all payments made to you related to the Consulting Services. 

 

	 	6.	For the period from the date hereof through the Employment Termination Date, the provisions of Section 1 hereof shall be deemed to supersede any inconsistent or
different provisions of the offer letter from Demandware to you dated as of February 14, 2007. 

  

	 	7.	With respect to the that certain Nondisclosure and Developments Agreement executed by you on March 7, 2007 (the “Nondisclosure Agreement”) and that
certain Employee Non-Solicitation and Non-Competition Agreement executed by you on August 3, 2004 (the “Noncompetition Agreement”), you and Demandware acknowledge and agree that (a) certain provisions of the Nondisclosure
Agreement and the Noncompetition are redundant and/or inconsistent, (b) based upon your changed role, certain provisions should be revised and (c) that, following revisions to such agreements to address (a) and (b), such agreements
will continue to apply to you so long as you continue to provide the Consulting Services (the “Consulting Term”). Accordingly, you and Demandware agree as follows:

	 	a.	The following provisions of the Noncompetition Agreement shall be deemed deleted and superseded in their entirety by the provisions of the Nondisclosure Agreement
and/or the terms of this letter: Sections 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8. 

  

	 	b.	All references to ‘employment’ within the Nondisclosure Agreement and Noncompetion Agreement shall deemed to include (i) your direct employment by
Demandware and (ii) the Consulting Term and your performance of the Consulting Services hereunder. 

  

	 	c.	Notwithstanding Section 7.b Section 2 of the Noncompetition Agreement is hereby amended to provide that the period of noncompetition specified therein shall
continue until the later of (i) twelve (12) months from the Employment Termination Date or (ii) six (6) months from the last day of the Consulting Period. 

 

	 	d.	As you may not be devoting your full time to the provision of the Consulting Services, you will be free to engage in other activities not in conflict with
Section 2 of the Noncompetition Agreement during the Consulting Term and Demandware acknowledges and agrees that you may, during the Consulting Term, create Developments (as such term is defined in the Nondisclosure Agreement) to which
Demandware shall have no rights under the terms of the Nondisclosure Agreement or otherwise. Accordingly, Demandware disclaims any and all interest in any Developments you may develop during the Consulting Term that do not
(i) result or arise from tasks assigned to you by Demandware during the Consulting Term; or (ii) result from the use of Demandware’s premises or property, confidential/proprietary information of Demandware or employees of
Demandware. 

 Please indicate your agreement to the terms of this letter by signing and returning to me the original of this
letter.

 Dear Jeff: 

On behalf of Demandware, Inc. (the “Company”), I am pleased to confirm our employment offer to you for the position of SVP
Field Operations. In that position you will be responsible for, among other things, Sales and Services which include Sales, Professional Services, Partner Enablement, Training and Technical Support. Your starting salary will be 175,000 dollars,
payable semi monthly (annualized) and your employment will commence as soon as convenient for you but no later than November 7. 
 In addition to the annual salary specified above, you are eligible to earn annual incentive bonuses totally $125,000. These bonuses will be based on the achievement of mutually agreed upon milestones or
objectives and will be paid at least quarterly. 
 Subject to Board approval, you will be granted 574,526 options to purchase
shares of Demandware, Inc. common stock pursuant to our Employee Stock Option Plan. This represents 4% of the outstanding common and preferred shares outstanding prior to our Series B financing. Subsequent to the successful completion of our Series
B financing, you will receive an additional grant which will be a calculated amount such that the total number of options issued by way of the two grants will equate to the same 4%. The exercise price of the options will be set at the fair market
value as of the date of grant (which we anticipate will correspond with the date your employment commences). The options shall be granted to you subject to the terms and conditions of the Employee Stock Option Plan and the attached Employee Stock
Option Agreement, which must be executed on or before the date of grant. As more fully spelled out in the Employee Stock Option Agreement, both option grants shall vest as follows: twenty-five percent (25%) of the options on the one
(1) year anniversary of your employment; and one forty-eighth (l/48th) of the options at the end of each month starting with the thirteenth (13th) month following the start date of your employment. Additionally, also subject to board
approval, you are eligible to purchase up to 200,000 shares of Series-B preferred stock as part of the Series-B financing round. Your options will include a term which will provide for an acceleration of 12 months of vesting should there be a Sale
Event and your employment, where employment is at least equivalent in terms of role, scope of responsibilities and compensation, is not continued within 12 months of that event. 

 You will be eligible to participate in all other employee welfare benefit plans generally
made available by the Company to similarly-situated employees. Your participation will be in accordance with the plan rules and regulations as to eligibility, waiting periods etc. While these plans are subject to change without notice, they
generally include medical, dental, short term and long term disability insurance as well as $50,000 of life insurance. In addition you may elect to participate in the Demandware 401K plan as well as a flexible spending plan (Section 125 Plan).

 Initially you will be entitled to up to 25 Paid Time Off Days (PTO days) each year. These days may be used for vacation. They
must also be used for days absent from work due to illness, sick days, or other personal reasons. These days will be deemed to be earned and accrue on a monthly basis and which will not be paid for in advance. You may not accrue more than your
applicable maximum allotment of PTO days. 
 This offer is contingent on your execution and delivery to us of (i) this
agreement, and (ii) the Company’s Non-Disclosure and Developments Agreement attached hereto, and (iii) the Employee Non-Solicitation and Non-Competition Agreement attached hereto by November 7, 2005 at 5:00 p.m., after which time this offer
will terminate if not accepted. The execution of each of the above referenced documents is a condition of your employment. 

Please note that your written acceptance of this offer also confirms your understanding and agreement that your employment with the
Company is “at-will,” meaning that either you or the Company may terminate your employment at any time and for any reason. You further acknowledge that this letter does not constitute an employment contract. 

If you are not a US Citizen it may be necessary for you to obtain a work permit or Visa from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. If
this is the case, the company will engage Immigration Attorneys and will make every reasonable effort to obtain the necessary authorizations for you to work in the U.S. If such a Work Permit, or Visa, is required, then it will become a condition of
your employment and your employment will terminate if you are denied permission to work in the U.S. 
 We are tremendously
excited about the opportunity for you to join our team. Please feel free to contact me if you need any further information prior to the deadline indicated above.

 Subject: 2010 Performance Bonus 
 Your bonus opportunity for 2010 is $25,000. This is funded based upon company financial performance as follows: 
 The funding of this bonus does not guarantee that you will receive a bonus. In order to achieve any of this potential bonus, you must meet your individual objectives and be an employee at the time the
bonus is paid. Your individual objectives and the portion of the bonus earned upon achievement are as follows: 
 Individual Objectives for
1H 2010 
  

			
	  	  	 Portion

	 1. ACV budget for 2011: above $12M is Satisfactory, above $13M is Good, above $14M is Excellent
	  	 20%

	 2. GMV growth forecast for 2011. This will be assessed based upon our ability to confidently measure the positive impact from our
RPG efforts in 2010 and thereby be more aggressive in planning future GMV growth for our customers.
	  	20%
		  	 
	 3. Brian Callahan’s success, your dispensability to North American month to month functioning of new customer sales in
NA
	  	15%

	  	15%
		  	 
	 5. Weighted average GMV commitment % on new ACV. Satisfactory is 1.9%, Good is 2%, Excellent is 2.1%. (Note: the weighted average
only counts the first $400K of a new customer’s commitment into the weighting to avoid the effect of very large customers pushing the % down.)
	  	15%
		  	 
	 6. Customer renewals. Satisfactory is 90%. Excellent is 100% measured on a $ volume basis.
	  	15%
		  	 

 In each case, we will assess the achievement of the objective as Excellent, Good, Satisfactory or Unsatisfactory. You
will earn full value for Excellent, 90% for Good, 75% for Satisfactory or 0% for Unsatisfactory. 
 Bonuses will be distributed in February 2011
 
 Sincerely,
