Dear Manu,

On behalf of Rocket Fuel, Inc. (“Rocket Fuel”), I am pleased to offer you full-time employment with Rocket Fuel on the terms and conditions contained in this letter (the “Offer Letter”).  Your title will be Senior Vice President, Research & Development and you will report to George John, CEO. You will work out of the Redwood City office.

Your annual salary will be $350,000.00 and will be paid in accordance with Rocket Fuel’s normal payroll procedures.  In addition, you will be eligible for a management by objectives (MBO) bonus of 60% of your base salary, paid quarterly or in accordance with Rocket Fuel's normal executive bonus policy, and based upon  the goals set between you and your manager. This bonus is not part of your base compensation and Rocket Fuel reserves the right to adjust the amount at any time.   You will also receive a signing bonus of $75,000 paid in two equal $37,500 installments on Nov 15 2015 and Nov 15 2016. You will also be eligible to participate in Rocket Fuel’s complete package of employee benefits that are generally made available to all of Rocket Fuel’s full-time employees.

Additionally, following your start date, it will be recommended to the Board of Directors of Rocket Fuel (the “Board”) or the Compensation Committee of our Board (the “Committee”) that you be granted an award of 31,000 restricted stock units (“RSUs”). An award of RSUs gives you the right to receive shares of Rocket Fuel common stock upon vesting. Your award of RSUs will be subject to the terms and conditions of the Rocket Fuel equity plan under which it is granted, as well as the terms and conditions, including vesting schedule, of an RSU award agreement that will be provided to you as soon as practicable after the grant of the award.

Also, it will be recommended to the Board or the Committee that you be granted an option to purchase 62,000 shares of Rocket Fuel’s common stock at a price per share equal to the fair market value per share of Rocket Fuel’s common stock on the date of grant, as determined in accordance with the Rocket Fuel equity plan under which it is granted. This option will be subject to the terms and conditions of the Rocket Fuel equity plan under which it is granted, as well as the terms and conditions, including vesting schedule, of a stock option agreement that will be provided to you as soon as practicable after the option grant.

As a Rocket Fuel employee, you will be expected to abide by Rocket Fuel rules and regulations and sign and comply with Rocket Fuel’s Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement that, among other things, prohibits the unauthorized use or disclosure of Rocket Fuel proprietary information. We also ask that, if you have not already done so, you disclose to Rocket Fuel any and all agreements relating to your prior employment that may affect your eligibility to be employed by Rocket Fuel or limit the manner in which you may be employed. It is Rocket Fuel’s understanding that any such agreements will not prevent you from performing the duties of your position and you represent that such is the case.

In addition, you agree that, during the term of your employment with Rocket Fuel, you will not engage in any other employment, occupation, consulting, or other business activity directly related to the business in which Rocket Fuel is now involved or becomes involved during the term of your employment, nor will you engage in any other activities that conflict with your obligations to Rocket Fuel.  Similarly, you agree not to bring any third-party confidential information to Rocket Fuel, including that of your former employer, and that you will not in any way utilize any such information in performing your duties for us.

By signing below, you agree that your employment with Rocket Fuel is an employment “at will.” Employment “at will” means either party may terminate the relationship at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without cause or advance notice. Rocket Fuel reserves the right to revoke this offer should it not receive a satisfactory reference check and background screen for you.

You  are required to complete Section 1 of the Form I-9 on or before your first day of employment and to present, within 72 hours of hire, verification of your identity and legal right to work in the United States.  On your first day of employment, bring original documents to verify your employment eligibility- please refer to the I-9 form for a list of acceptable documents.

This Offer Letter will be governed by the laws of the State of California, without reference to rules relating to conflicts of law. In the event of any dispute or claim relating to or arising out of our employment relationship, you and Rocket Fuel agree to an arbitration in which (i) you are waiving any and all rights to a jury trial but all court remedies will be available in arbitration, (ii) we agree that all disputes between you and Rocket Fuel shall be fully and finally resolved by binding arbitration, (iii) all disputes shall be resolved by a neutral arbitrator who shall issue a written opinion, (iv) the arbitration shall provide for adequate discovery, and (v) Rocket Fuel shall pay those arbitration fees required by law.

This Offer Letter, together with the Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement, is the entire agreement between you and Rocket Fuel with respect to your employment and supersedes any other agreements or promises made to you by anyone, whether oral or written.

(a)    (i) Maintain all primary deposit accounts and securities accounts of the Borrower and the Guarantors with the Agent and (ii) maintain all other deposit accounts and securities accounts of the Borrower and the Guarantors with the Agent, a Lender or an Other Domestic Financial Institution, provided that, with respect to any such accounts (other than (A) accounts used solely for payroll, payroll taxes or employee wage and benefit payments, (B) zero balance accounts and (C) cash collateral accounts subject to a Lien permitted by Section 8.2(h) of this Agreement) maintained with any Lender (other than the Agent) or any Other Domestic Financial Institution, (x) such Borrower or Guarantor shall cause to be executed and delivered an Account Control Agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent, and (y) such Borrower or Guarantor has taken all other steps necessary, or in the opinion of the Agent, desirable to ensure that the Agent has a perfected security interest in such account.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, (1) Borrower shall be permitted to maintain the accounts with account numbers ending in -1932, -7625 and -1315 at HSBC or an HSBC Affiliate, and shall not be required to comply with clauses (x) and (y) of this Section 7.14(a)(i) with respect to such accounts and (2) Borrower and Guarantors shall be permitted to maintain other deposit accounts or securities accounts at a financial institution chartered outside of the United States, provided that the Borrower or applicable Guarantor shall be required to comply with clauses (x) and (y) of this Section 7.14(a)(i) if so requested by the Agent (the accounts in the foregoing clauses (1) and (2), collectively, the “Permitted Foreign Accounts”); provided that, unless the Borrower shall have caused to be executed and delivered an Account Control Agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent and taken all other steps necessary, or in the opinion of the Agent, desirable to ensure that the Agent has a perfected security interest in such Permitted Foreign Account, no Cash in any Permitted Foreign Account shall be included in the calculation of the financial covenants in Sections 7.9(b) and (c) of this Agreement.
(b)    Maintain a lockbox arrangement at all times with the Agent in form and substance acceptable to the Agent in its sole discretion for the collection of Accounts and other sums payable to the Borrower and any Guarantor (the “Lockbox”), and enter into any related treasury management documents as the Agent shall require. 
(c)    Commencing on the First Amendment Effective Date and until the Majority Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing, 
(i)    On or before April 30, 2015, the Borrower and the Guarantors shall open a non-interest-bearing deposit account or accounts with the Agent which shall be titled as designated by the Agent (each such account and all such accounts, collectively, the “Dominion of Funds Account”) to which the Agent shall have exclusive access and control.

(iii)    To the extent, upon the commencement of any Shortfall Period, that any account debtors and other parties liable for any payment under any of the Collateral are not making payments to the Borrower or Guarantors through the Lockbox or through a blocked account (or accounts) maintained with and satisfactory to the Agent, the Borrower or applicable Guarantor shall, within thirty (30) days of the commencement of such Shortfall Period, direct any such account debtor or other party to make payments through the Lockbox or by electronic funds transfer to be remitted to the Dominion of Funds Account, and Borrower, at the Agent’s request, shall include a like statement on all invoices; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, account debtors and other parties (in each case incorporated or organized outside of the United States of America) making payments into a Permitted Foreign Account may continue to make payments into such Permitted Foreign Account.

(iv)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Agent and the Lenders shall have and/or retain the right to transfer any collections and other amounts and apply all other amounts on deposit in any Dominion of Funds Account or other accounts (including, without limitation, any sums deposited prior to the beginning of any such Shortfall Period) against the Indebtedness as otherwise permitted under the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents during any period that Cash on Deposit is less than $30,000,000 or any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.”
